= MERE are ghosts in the old castle
of Amerongen, Holland, where
"a Mr.. William Hohenzolern, for
mer Kaiser of the German EN-
pire and would-be Kaiser of every habit
able portion Of the universe, has sought
refuge from the fate which closes in
upon him, creeping closer and closer day
by day. Yes, there are ghosts, and they
are not native TO the castle, either.
William brought them all along with him
out of his crime-soaked realm-not of
course, willingly, but inevitably For,
in the words of famous poet and play
wright, latter sunset, night, and after
an evil deed the vengeance of the
gods
While the world debates what is to
be done with the Kaiser, he roams ner-
vously about the castle. 1t is reported
that he is not even in that conspicuously
neutral nook, an over-welcome visitor
His mind tortures him with fears He
fears that at any moment the castle may
be blown up by plotters in the cellar
Or his eyes anXiously scan the wide

DDS it may prolong for years. Despite all
my repugnance, have had to choose the
first system"
AS to the former Kaiser's guilt, this
report concludes:
"Modern law does not recognize ire
sponsibe authorities, even at the summit
Of hierarchy It brings a state down from
its pedestal and makes it submit to the
rule of the judge.
"There can, therefore, be no question of
SAVING from the judge man who is at
the summit of the hierarchy, either by the
application of internal law or of interna-
tional law

wv THEN you opened your morn
~ ing paper last week you found
pair of very startling head
lines On the one hand you
found that in Ireland the Sim Feiners
had proclaimed republic, and on the
other hand that royalist rule had been
proclaimed in Portugal. An odd pair,
surely But these are days when almost
anything may happen.
Neither as yet appears to have passed
the opera bouffe stage. Half the dele
gates to the first Sim Fem parliament
are in various English prisons on
charges of sedition, or merely held under
suspicion, while the other half exchange
condolences behind closed doors in mys-
ferrous Gaelic into which their free Eng
Gsh speech has to be laboriouslv trans
lated before it can be as haltingly read.
Two of their delegates to the Paris con-
ference are in English prisons, while the
third awaits the liberality of a British
passport to proceed to France. The
British government lifted the ban on
public assemblage in Ireland just in time
for the Sim Feiners to meet without con-
travening the law, and genially contem-
plates the Dublin stage.
Meanwhile, "Portugal's royal fat boy"
as he is termed by THE Louisville Cou-
rier Journal" PAGES the deck of steam
snip off Lisbon, according to Madrid dis
patches by way of Paris, and awaits the
call to go ashore and be shot at by his
exctable subjects, or the news that he
can return to the safer pleasures of his
villa at TwicEenham.

faculty. It is report which deals with
the ex-Kaiser's responsibility for the
war, and discusses the best means of
securing justice. In it is quoted let
ter from William to Emperor Karl of
Austria, written in the early days of
the war. This is the letter:
"Ny soul is torn asunder. but everything
must be put to fire and blood The threats
Of men and women, children and the aged
must be cut and not tree or a house left
standing.
"With such methods of terror, which
alone can strike so degenerate a people
as the French the war Will finish before two

Also, British commission, under the
Craftsmanship Of Sir John Mcdowell, is

zs;;A'kh,ks,

The New Yorker Volkszeitung,' the
German Socialist daily, writes
at was clear from the first moment that
in both instances those of Liebknecht and
Rosa Luxembourg it was case Of bastard
II. cowardly assassination. The crime com
mitted against Rosa Luxembourg not even
the German official circles dared to denv.
They had simply to admit the lynching. So
they spoke of the ordeal consummated BIZ
the crowd on the deceased. As though they
did not know that the bum proletariat' of
each big city, the degenerated dregs of the
working class, are the deadly enemies Of
every revolutionary movement and its
leaders"
The "Elore,7 Hungarian Socialist
daily, comments thus:
Two great human beings have closed
their eyes forever An indescribable loss
has been inflicted on the social democracy
Of the world"
But turning to that portion of the
American press which is not committed
to the doctrines held by the slain leaders
in Germany, one encounters very diff
ferent reactions. For instance. The
Spokane Spokesman Review" feels that.
through this action on the part of the
mob "a heavy blow was undoubtedly
struck at Bolshevism in Germany" al
though this paper goes on to assert that
Llebknecht was valuable to Germany
up to certain point" He counselled
against militarism, but when his mo-
mo nf
duplicated the red ruin of Russia for the
sake of q theory, and would have set up
anarchy in place of autocracy"
In much the same vein writes 1.-The
Boston Herald:
"LiebAnecht was not builder-up. but
only puller-down lie had nothing stable
to offer in place OF the old system which
he rightly sought to destroy"
The Baltimore American" declares.
The mans killing under the circum-
stances does not reflect any discredit unon
those responsible for it. lie and the won
an who was his partner in his social crimes
were social scavengers. were without bal
ance of brain or Of morals"
However, many papers have high
praise to bestow. While. almost invari-
ably, writer's lament the fact that Tieh-
knecht's idealism was 80 uncompromiss
ing and visionary" many are quick to
proclaim him a man of exceptional quail
tiles.
Finally, the irony of the situation is
clearly brought out by The INDIANAPOLIS
News which reminds US that
me mob that beat Rosa Luxembourg into
ihsens'o'iity and fired a bullet into her
head' and the men who shot Liebknecht

Says Owners Have Right to
Close Mill and Employees
May Quit

Sunbury, Aug. s.-The hearing In
in the Injunction proceedings by
which the ]. H. and c. K. Eagle
Company, of Shamokin, Is seeking
to prevent their striking employees
from interfering with the operation
OF their mills, and through whi IN
they seek to obtain $500,0O0 dam
ages, opened yesterday in the court
here before Judge II. w. Cummings.
About two hundred men and girls.
some of them strikers, and others
representing the United Mine Work.
ers of America, who are actively
backing the strike, came down from
Shamokin to attend the hearing.
Some of them were witnesses sub
poenaed by the company's attorneys,
and others came to lend their moral
support.
The court made it clear at the
outset, the company had a right
to close the mill if it wanted TO, and
employees had right to strike if
they wanted to.
The plaintiffs chief contention
was that after it had served notice.
on July 20, that it wanted it's en-
ployes to return at an advance in
wages, many who desired to como
back were coerced from doing so
by the defendants.
