the old system, whether with. or
without Wilhelm II.
Failing an appreciation Of this
fact, the Allied policy has permitted
the new regime TO lose such little
German credit as it had, such little
vitality as it possessed at a moment,
when sheer weariness caused Ger
many to move rather feebly, but
still quite unmistakably, in the di-
rection of the Left, that is, toward
something which in Germany at
least suggested liberalism.
The last thing in the world the
"old gang" desired, perhaps desire
even at this moment, is to take
control. Their return would have
to be predicated on an ultimate ma
tional reaction against the weak
ness and failure Of the present rul-
ers. To see the Ebert government
utterly discredited, to see it driven
to make one sacrifice after another
until the cup Of national humilia-
tion overtlowed, this was, remains,
the Junker policy. 1t could only
be tempted to act when the low
water mark had been reached
Napoleon came home too soon; jun
kerdom could afford to wait little.
Now it seems to me that no one
can mistake the fact that there has
been in Germany in the last year
exactly the same kind Of reaction
which led to the Napoleonic return.
No one pretends that the existing
regime has preserved any amount
Of credit, influence, respect. Its
failures are largely the result Of
inheritances, but clear as this fact
is to the outside world it is by no
means plain to the Germans, for
whom the present national degra-
dation is concomitant with the pres
ent Liberal" rule, just as the an
cient splendors are associated in
memory with the rule of the Pots
dam elements.

HNHE use of the injunction,
contrary to the general i'm
preston, is a feature Of the
law almost as old as the
institution Of trial by jury, says
"The Kansas City STAR" summarize
ing the development of the injunc-
tion and its application to labor
disputes.
1t was first used in 1882, when
the King Of England empowered the
chancellor to issue writs restraining
the barons from overriding the com
mon law courts. The principle Of
injunction, 1t adds, dates back fur
ther still to Roman law:
1T is classified in the law as ono OF
the Extraordinary writs.' Its essential
purpose Is to prevent the doing OF q
wrong whose effects. II consummated,

Napoleon Had az, Army

We are told over and over again
by those who write from Germany
that the Kaiser has no following left.
There is not even a tinsel Napoleon
about him. But it is no less clear
that the great figures of the period
when Germany was winning the war
--Hindenburg, Ludendorff and now
Mackensen-are daily receiving new
evidences Of their appreciation in
public estimation. The very fact
that the weak and helpless German
government Of the hour refuses
Allied demands which it cannot re-
sist is an evidence Of it's interpreta-
tion of contemporary facts in Ger
many. At least, 1t is afraid of
domestic foes, more afraid than of
foreign masters who control armies
of occupation.
On the military side the case is
less impressive. / do not suppose
any military man would for a mo-
ment count the Germans as capable
Of making the fight Napoleon made
in his last phase. When the great
emperor returned from Elba he
found his own soil free of foreign
troops, he found an army in being
and this army was not by any means
without military equipment, although
it had no such equipment as his ar.
mics had possessed in past times. War
was different thing then-the prob
lem Of munitions, transport, heavy
artillery, air service, the question of
the blockade, such things did not
exist as problems or were insignif-
cant by contrast with the present
hour conditions.
Actually the emperor took to
Waterloo an army better equipped
than those he met, he was able to
open his campign at the frontier, and
his decisive defeat took place almost
within sight of Brussels--that is
relatively remote from French terri
tory. Nothing Of the sort is now
conceivable.
The first sign Of an actual Ger.
man reaction would carry the French
into Frankfort and Mannheim and
Baden would be occupied almost
within few hours. In the presence
Of French and British heavy artil
lery and airplanes the Germans coult
offer no counter preparation. Ger
man railways, practically in state
Of paralysis in the closing hours O.
the war, have been still furthe,
crippled by the surrender Of vas
numbers of engines and cars to tn,
French and the Belgians. Finally
and this circumstance is capital, tn,
blockade would be Reconstructed with
out the slightest delay and the old
terrible conditions of the war brief,
restored.
This amounts to saying that an,
successful German uprising, any rep
etltion of the events of 1913, woul'
be next to impossible to-day. becaus
Of changed conditions. Not even
despairing resistance such as Franc
glorlously maintained after Grave
lotte and Sedan seems even to b
thought Of. Only one possibility o
success could exist, and that woul,
grow out of the refusal Of French
British and American troops to fight

to favor one German party as con-
trasted with another, because they
were still in the mood when all Ger
mans seemed equally dangerous
equally hostile, equally beyond the
pale of civilization.
Where Paris Failed
On this rock the Paris Confer
ence wrecked, so far as it's German
policy was concerned. No one will
pretend that there was vast moral
gulf between the so-called Liberals
who took control of Germany when
the old rulers fell and fled, and
these rulers themselves. All had
consented to the German attack,
all had shared something Of the
German aspirations for world power
and plunder. But, on the other
hand, for the security Of the world
the continued supremacy in Ger,
many of the elements called to
power by the revolution was fal
more desirable than any return Of

French We're Var Wearv

s At the moment when the Emperor
abdicated the French nation was as
weary of war as the German people
q year ago. If there had been moth
ing like the strain Of the four years
of the recent conflict, there had been
twenty years of war with only brief
and partial truces, the blood tax had
been tremendous and the rewards
for victories which remain the mar
vel of military minds had been in
creasingly slight and never sufficient
to bring complete cessation of hos
tilities.
But year later the situation had
materially changed. The Bcurbons
returning had alienated the army.
They had sent the famous soldiers Of
the Revolutionary and Imperial pc
| riod into retirement on minor pen
sions, they had replaced them with
men who had left France at the be-
ginning of the Revolution and had
fought only against France since
that time. They had turned out the
vast army of civil employees and
functionaries who had been organ
tied in the years following the Revo-
luton.
More than this, they had con-
sented, In the terms Of peace made
with the victorious allies who had
conquered Napoleon, to sacrifices of
territory and of prestige Once more

ae 1t was true, 1t remained true, that
the nation was in the main utterly
weary Of war. Had Paris risen in

Frank III. Simonds Believes
By Frank H. Simonds

have served to recall to the
mind of every one familiar
with history the circum-
stances which surrounded the fall
II the First Empire in France, the
Brief period Of the First Restoration
and to suggest the possibility, un-
lnistakably remote, that Germany
is approaching the moment when it
will risk another Waterloo by in
viting back to power the ancient
regime, the Hohenzollerns.
Granting that there are nearly
as many points of difference as of
resemblance between the situation
Of 1919 and that Of 1915, it is at
least worth while. in view Of the
issues at stake, to examine the points
Of resemblance, and as a conse-
quence the forces which make for q
repetition of one of the most dra.
matte incidents in the history of the
world.
To begin at the beginning, Napo.
leon abdicated in April, 1914, while
his own army was still in being. He
did not surrender in the presence
Of a supreme battlefield disaster, as
in the case of Waterloo. 1t was
true that the enemy had entered
his capital, that his own sadly dimin.
ished army could no longer keep the
field with any hope of success
against the allied forces and his
bravest marshals were precisely the
advisers who compelled an abdica
ton.
Yet in some fashion the Napo-
1eonic legend survived defeats
which were the result of the En-
peror's own mistakes but had been
inflicted upon his marshals. The
:. fall of Paris itself might be set
down-and was in imperial quar-
ters-to the treachery of Marmont.
Even in the fatal Marne campaign
which had preceded the collapse,
Napoleon had disclosed military
genius recalling his greatest Ital-
ian achievements, and Montmirail
was victory more far-shining, in
a sense, than Austcrlitz or Wagram.
The veterans Of the empire, par
ticularly troops who had been shut
up in German fortresses and had
mo- Share in the last campaigns, were
still convinced of their superiority
to the enemy, whom they had de-
feated on score of fields. All in
all, there was far more warrant in
the French army Of that day than
in the German army of to-day fo1
the belief that the ultimate defeat
had been brought about by other
than military influences, and the
French army was still capable OF
conquering as it had conquered.

ANOTHER MISTER IOUS HAPPENING
bvc arlysle II. holeornb-

When Tinker Bob arose in the
early morning his first thought was
about Mi. Wood Rat. So he went
Immediately to see If Mr.. Rat was
and stones were perfectly silent.
There seemed to be no life about.
King Tinker went, back to his Palace
to wait until evening for-he remem-
bcred that Jack the Wood Rat only
came out in the evening.
AS Tinker Bob looked about the
Palace thinking about h Pat, pat,
pat" he had heard the night before,
he saw something new and strange
in one corner of the room. There
was a pile Of large burs and each
one filed with chestnuts.
"IIow did these yer get into my
house?" said Tinker to himself.
Someone is surely very kind to me.
These have been stored away for
many days"
stranger still, for none Of h forest
dwellers that Tinker Bob knew ever
ate any potatoes. =
"They look like some the Hunter
has in a neighboring field" said
Tinker aloud, for he talked to himself
q great deal when no one was about.
But how they ever arrived in his
Palace was q great mystery:
, In the middle Of the day Tinker
Bob went out again to see II, per-
chance Mr.. Wood Rat might be wan
dering forth. But instead Of finding
Mr.. Wood Rat he found a long trail
leading from one Of the stick piles
through the forest to the meadow
where the Hunter had planted pota-
toes early in the summer. There
were now and then tracks that could
be distinguished in the soft dirt that
looked very much like the track Of
Jack the Wood Rat. .
IT WONDER" said Tinker Bob, "if it
could be possible that Jack the Wood
Rat stored away some Of the Hunt
er's potatoes when he dug them this
fall"
This hardly seemed possible. In
the first place what would a Wood
