The Nations We're Aroused,

LFrom the Ne W Nork sun.

In his address before the BelglV
Chamber OF Deputies President wa
son said:
II believe that Belgium and her
part i'm the war are IN one sense the
key to The whole struggle. because
The violation OF Belgium was the
call to duty which aroused the ma
tions."
This is a BIT Of truth and IL is peeu-
liarly interesting, as 10 comes from Mr..
Wilson's lips, because Of the careful
ness Of the phraseology. The nations
indeed were aroused. The violation oi
Belgium not only shocked the English.
for example, but brought the British
Empire into The war on the side Of
Belgium, the government OF Asquth
and Grey instantly refusing to con
done the breaking Of The treaty. In
this country there was Immediately a
sensation of horror. not only at the
scrapping OF the treaty. but at the ter
rible crimes perpetrsted by Germany
IN Belgium Immediately afterward. This
national feeling caused President VIII
son 20 issue his neutrality appeal of

THE BOMB CHALLENGE!

From the Wilmington Labor Herald.
Just this word TO the insane bomb
plotters:
Their violence is direct challenge
to organized society in this democratic
republic.
Democracy will not be oyorthrown
by any such methods.
We reason things out here in Amer
lea and we decide issues by the re-
cording Of our collective judgment.
We shall continue TO decide matters
by that process.
Those who resort TO the bomb are
in the wrong place.
The challenge OF violence must and
will be met and dealt with according
TO the laws OF the land.
The dcstroyers say they act IN the
name Of liberty.
The whole tendency Of such action
in a free country is TO compel the md
jority 10 adopt restrictive measures.
Because Of that the bomb Outrages
are doubly criminal.
We must be careful that reaction
does not result from the work OF insane
dynamiters.
But the republic must protect Itself
and its institutions against terrorist
methods. America Will not be dc
stroyed by terrorism.
This, we are confident, will be the
Judgment Of every trade unlonist and
every true lover Of liberty, democracy

As "the call to duty which aroused
the nations evoked from Mr.. Wilson
only a plea TO the people Of the United
States not TO be aroused his choice OF
words in the speech to the Belgian
Deputies is admirable. Later in his
| speech Mr.. Wilson said:
1T was the violation Of Belgium
that awakened the world TO the
realization Of the character OF the

This also is a guarded way Of putting

Germany in Belgium had been going on
for four months and were familiar in

Wilson said:
we are at peace with all the

The demand for a trial Of the Kais er
no matter what its result or what SEN

able on other grounds than those COM

matter Than The bare question OF
whether the lIohenzollern is TO be pun-

The world needs the fullest inquiry
INTO the exact circumstances surround
ing the decision OF the German govern
ment to launch the war. Much has been
reNealcd-enOugh 10 warrant general
conclusions. But many details are GOV
cred and Others are contradicled. The
whole matter should be laid bare.
The best way TO bring this about is
TO try the Kaiser. Tie IS the centre OF
information. The truth can be extracted
concerning what went on i'm Berlin i'm
July, 1911. Tho trail Is left in docu-
Inents still in existence. Witnesses.
though unwilling, can be induced 10
tell. The worlds attention would be
focused by an inquiry that would
reach TO the bottom.
Particularly Is this desirable for the
possible effect on the German people. 10
