Sympathetic History of the German Empire

missal by Kaiser Wilhelm II. from the
Office of Chancellor of the Empire Bis
marck was the most powerful political
figure in continental Europe.
In the publishers notice of Mr.. Daw-
sons work on the paper cover of each
volume it is stated that the history is not
so much for scholars and students as it is
for the general reader. In some respects,
however, it is well worthy the attention of
specialists In historical study. In biogra-
phies of Bismarck it has frequently ieen
asserted that he frankly gave notice of
Prussia's intention to attack Austria no
less than four years before the War of
1866! This assertion is based upon an ut
terance attributed to Bismarck during his
visit to London in 1862. He was present
at dinner given by Baron Brunnow, the
Russian Ambassador in England, to the
Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar. Count
Vitzthum, the Saxon envoy to London,
was one Of the guests and reports Bis
marck as having spoken to Disraei
somewhat" as follows:
II shall soon be compelled to take over
the direction of the Prussian Ministry.
Ny first care will be to reorganize the
army, with or without the help of the
Diet. The King has rightly undertaken
this task, but he cannot carry it through
with his present advisers. When the
army has been brought to a condition in
which it will command respect 1 shall
seize the first pretext for declaring war
on Austria, dissolving the Germanic Fed
Grafton, subduing the secondary and
small States and giving Germany national
unity under Prussia's leadership. l have
come here to say this to her Majesty's
Ministers"
Mr.. Dawson is convinced that this story
must be discounted severely"
While Count Vitzthum says that Bis
narck's words were repeated to him by
Disraeli, it is noteworthy that Disraeh
himself, who was an abundant writer, has
left no record of the incident The use
of the qualifying word Somewhat" by
Count Vitzthum is also significant. At
the time of the dinner there was no GER
tainty that Bismarck would become Minis
ter-President of Prussia; he was then
Ambassador In France, with no immedi-
ate prospect of returning to Berlin. "Bis-
marck was never boaster and the words
ascribed to him are not In his manner.
Finally, even If he had gone to London
with the object of divulging his purposes
to the Government there, it is not likely
that he would have first unbosomed him
self to the leader of the Opposition, whom
he had never met before" These doubts,
which are naturally suggested by the cir
cumstanees. illustrate the difficulties Of the
historian in getting at the truth where
any element Of hearsay evidence is in
volved. If Count Vitzthum had heard
the words Of Bismarck himself, we should
have no question except that of the
Counts veracity. The story attributes to
Bismarck a greater degree of prophetic
candor than he ever exhibited on any
other occasion In his cancer.
There mas been much controversy con-
corning Bismarck's attitude toward France
at the end of the War of 1870. In the
latter part of his life he always insisted
that he was most moderate in his demands
against the defeated foe, and Mr.. Dawson
The sun., 1919-10-05

had been settled not by Diet majorities
and parliamentary speeches, but literally
by blood and iron. 1t had needed three
wars to bring the goal within reach; lives
had been sacrificed by the hundred thou
sand; treasure wasted with prodigal hand;
countries given over to devastation and
ruin; but success had been won and never
did he doubt that the prize was worth the
price" For twenty years longer, the his
tory Of united Germany is record OF
Bismarck's practical dictatorship over the
empire which he had made.
Mr.. Dawson sketches that record with
due appreciation of its merits and de-
fects. In reference to Bismarcks long
controversy with the Roman Catholic
Church he declares that the State emerged
not stronger but weaker from the futile
struggle, and this view finds support in
Bismarck's own words, written in 1898:
'The conflict which has been waged from
time immemorial between priests and
kings cannot be brought to conclusion
at the present day, and least of all in
Germany" His contest with Socialism
was hardly more successful; he sowed
dragons teeth with every measure Of re-
preston which he caused to be enacted.
His legislation designed to ameliorate the
condition of the working classes produced
irritation instead of affording relief, and
utterly failed to accomplish the political
purposes he thereby sought to promote.
. In spite Of these conspicuous failures,
however, and the perpetuation Of reac-
tionary principles while Bismarck re-
manned in power, Germany prospered
materially under his rule and that of his
successors, until at the outbreak Of the
Great War she was justly regarded as the
equal of any nation in the world in pros
perity and power. How and why this
prosperity and power has dissolved and
come to naught the author of this work
does not attempt to explain. He has not
attempted to mingle much philosophy
with his history. He trusts to the intelli-
gence Of his readers to perceive that the
seeds Of destruction were the denial Of
constitutional liberty and the supremacy
of the military spirit in the government
and nation.
The concluding pages of Mr.. Dawson's
work were written in December last. The
author points out that Germany for the
first time in its history possesses the power
to choose its own form of government,
and he expresses the belief that whatever
this may be, the German nation will be
strengthened in the end rather than weak
ened by renovation and adaptation to the
imperious demands of a new and brighter
era Of civilization. 1t is this sentiment
thai causes US to characterize the work as
a sympathetic history of the German EN-
pre-.

thinks his claim in this respect is well
founded. "From first to last" he says,
Bismarck favored much smaller cession
that the Generals demanded and had he
had his way it is possible that no part Of
Lorraine might have been taken. To the
twelfth hour, indeed, he questioned the
wisdom of retaining Metz, Gs being
French city whose inhabitants would be
sure to make disaffected German citizens
and to cause the new empire much harm"
He did not like the idea of so many
Frenchmen being in German house
against their will and would have pre-
ferred to accept another milliard of francs
and let the French keep Metz. That he
was wiser than the rapacious Prussian
Generals in this respect no one will now
dispute. They wanted an enemy so beaten
down that he would not be able to stand
up for hundred years; only fifty years
have passed and that enemy is their con-
queror.

".


In ceremonial matters relating to the
Inauguration of the new German Empire
Bismarck encountered many irritating DIFF
fculties concerning details which he
deemed immaterial The King of Prussia,
although he did not care for any i'm
perial title at all, preferred to be known
as the Emperor of Germany; but King
Ludwig of Bavaria would not consent to
this inasmuch as it might import territor-
ial sovereignty, so the title Of German
Emperor was proposed instead. Bismarck
could perceive no substantial distinction
between the two appellations and while
the discussion was going on he derisively
asked his secretaries "What is the Latin
for sausagef" Upon being told that it
was either farcimen or farcimentum, he
exclaimed: 'Nescio qu1d mihi magis far
cimentum es" I don't know which think
is the greater sausage.) Though the differ
ence was like that between tweedle,Ium
and tweedledee, he pronounced in favor of
German Emperor" as the future imperial
title in order to satisfy Bavaria. When it
came to the proclamation of the empire,
the dispute still waxed so hot that neither
title was used, but the sovereign was
spoken of simply as the Emperor William.
The Crown Prince wished the title to be
King of Germany "What about the other
kings7" asked Bismarck ''They must be-
come dukes again." said the Crown Prince,
and Bismarck represents him as saying
that they should be forced to do so if
necessary. This incident is wholly incon-
sistent with what we know of the general
character of the Crown Prince (afterward
Frederick III. J, who was gentle and tact
full and opposed to coercion in politics.
As Mr.. Dawson truly says, it was a
great day for the Germanie races and for
Europe when Germany was no longer a
foftuitous concourse of impotent sover-
eighties, but firm and ordered union of
States protected by an army which had
within four years overthrown two of the
strongest Of continental powers. Few
could foresee then what all of us know
now: that it was to become a union of
autocretic miitarism instead of union
Of freedom and civilization. The new en-
pire was Bismarck's creation and he was
delegated to read the proclamation which
announced its establishment to the world.

idealists had wished, the German question
