Malicious Spirit of Ex-
Kaiser Always Evident
Continued from page one

famous Dropping the Pilot cartoon
was an outcome of the summoning
of an International Socialist confer
ence to Berlin, under the auspices
of William himself. This was hotly
opposed by the wise old chancellor,
and rightly, as events were to prove.
The difference of opinion led to a ter
rible scene between the kaiser and
the chancellor, In which Bismarck
proffered his verbal resignation.
when Bismarck left, the emperor
sent an aide-de-camp after him, with
instructions to demand the resigna-
ton in writing: The answer came
that the kaiser would receive it on
the following day, but the aid-de-
camp was again sent to Bismarck
with the order that he should not
leave until he had received the de-
sired document. Thus, with the ut
most degree of ignominy, was termin-
ated the career of the real founder
of the German empire.
COngratulStes Kruger
"Other landmarks in the kaiser's
career as a diplomat include his fam
GUS telegram Of congratulation to
Kruger after the unsuccessful
Jameson raid in 1896; his landing at
Tangier and taking the sultan of
Morocco under German protection,
which nearly precipitated war with
France, and his interview published
in the Daily Telegraph In which he
claimed that he was the chief friend
of Great Britain and a country that
was hostile and was made more hos
tile by British suspicious.
Then came the Agadir and more
recent incidents events which
tended to mark the browning failure
of the kaiser's career as diplomatist
and which pointed only to one con-
clusion-that all his acts in that
capacity had been swayed by impulse
and the belief that he could preserve
the peace of Europe by making an
overwhelming display Of force.
1T was the same kaiser who pro-
tested that war had been forced on
him, who proclaimed boastfully that
he had been sent into the world as
special envoy from God and bias
declared:
~ am the instrument of the All
Powerful, His sword, His representa-
tive. Misfortune and death to those |
who resist my will. Misfortune and |
death to those who do not believe |

Has Large Holdings
when the Lusitania outrage
shook the world, the kaiser declared |
to Mr.. Gerard, the former American
to Berlin, that he would
not have permitted it if he had
known what was contemplated, and
that mo gentleman would kill so
many women and children
but this hypocritical forbearance
did not prevent him from counten-
ancing the wholesale torpedoing of
lied Cross ships, the bombing of hos
pitfalls, or the deliberate destruction
Of open towns. He told his Ameri-
can dentist, Mr.. Davis, that there is
no longer any International law
