INSOLENT HYPOCRISY.

The insolent assurance Of Prus-
sian craftsmanship is enough to
take an honest mans breath away
Here we have Chancellor Won
Hertling saying, in reichs'ag
speech:
81 can fundamentally agree with
the four principles which in Presi-
dent Wilson's view must be applied
in actual exchange OF views, and
thus declare with President Wilson
that a general peace can be dis
cusSed on such a basis,
Turning to the presidents last
address to congress, we find that
these four principles, representing
the ideals we are fighting for, are
stated as follows:
"First-That each part of the
final settlement must be based upon
the essential justice OF that particu-
lar case and upon such adjustments
as are likely to bring peace that
will be permanent,
"Second-That peoples and prov
inceS are not to be bartered about
from sovereignty to sovereignty as
il they were mere chattels and
pawns in game, even the great
game, now forever discredited, OF
the balance of power; but that
"Third-Every territorial settle
ment involved in the war must be
made in the interest and for the
benefit OF the populations CON
cerned, and not as part OF any mere
adjustment or compromise OF
claims among rival states; and
-Fourth-That all well-dehned
national aspirations shall be accord
ed the utmost satisfaction that can
be accorded them without introduc-
ing new or perpetuating old eIe-
mentS of diScord and anatgonism
that would be likely in time to
break the peace Of Europe and con-
sequently OF the world"
The head of the German govern
ment pretended to give his assent
to these principles. And at the very
moment he was speaking, every
single one of them was being fla
grantly broken by Germany in her
dealings with Russia. She was fore
ing upon Russia peace terms that
were as far from being based upon
the essential justice OF that particu-
lar case" as hell is from heaven.
She was deliberately "bartering
about from sovereignty to sover-
eighty tine Poles, Lithuanians, Es-
thonians, Liyonians and Films.
She was enforcing territorial settle
ments for the benefit OF Germany
instead of the benefit OF the poFu-
lations concerned" She was deny
ing the satisfaction of well de
fined national aspirations Moth
ing but ruthless, conscienceless
grabbing OF territories and peoples
and dismcmberment of a harmless
neighbor and the establishment OF
a tyrannous empire III the East sure
to upset the future peace OF the
world.
There can be no progress toward
peace through such cynical hypoc-
riSy
