Ninety-eight Years After

On the bleak and altogether unin-
| teresting island Of st. Helena ninety
eight years ago, Napoleon Bonaparte
the great military genius of France,
was passing the last days of his life
upon this earth. May 5, 1921, he
died. His body is now in his beloved
France, and descendants of the peo-
pie whom he misguided during his
ambitions and graphic career go to
his tomb to pay due and willing rev.
erence. Ninetyeight years after the
death of this great Frenchman, the
leader of another great nation is in
exile, not far from the land of the
people whom he also misguided, mis-
used and falsely led in the blind and
futile role of their consecrated head.
In his self-appointed exile, William
Hohenzollern cannot be compared to
the great Napoleon. The only COM
parison that can rightfully be made
is that each of these rulers of great
people became obsessed with the mad
desire to extend his rule to the
uttelmost ends of the earth. But /
this modern blood-thirsty ruler of |
the German Empire, who wrecked his
kingdom and himself, is, in a sense,
Just as much an exile today as ever
was and deserves to be still
further punished. He is an exile
from all that is good and worth while
in this world, and all he loses he rich
ly deserves to lose, even if it is his
Courant.
