The Revolt in Berlin

Press dispatches from Berlin do not contain
enough details to warrant final judgment on
the substitution of the Kapp government for the
Ebert regime. But scrutiny of the records of
the leaders of the movement suggests it's re-
dictionary character.
DR.. Kapp, former conservative member of
the Reichstag, was of the deputies who
urged the government to speed up U-boat build
ing. He was president of the Fatherland party,
a notorious Pan-German organization, which
urged that Germany carry on the war to the bit
ter end.
Maj. Gen. Baron Luettwitz, who has been ap-
pointed to be commander-in-chief, served in Bel
GUM and on the Verdun front, and was one of
the leaders of the military party that opposed
Germany's acceptance of the peace terms.
Associated with them, as one may easily in
Fer are other reactionaries whose sympathies are
linked with the old monarchy and who have been
waiting patiently for an opportune moment to
overthrow the Ebert government and restore in
power those sinister influences for whose multi
fcation The civilized nations spent money with
out stint and sacrificed men without restraint.
Rumblings of the impending storm had reach
ed the allied governments weeks ago. Their re-
quest that Holland increase it's watchfuness over
former Emperor William whose retreat in Amer
.ongen is near enough to German soil to make
him menace to the spread of republican ideas
in his former reals, only indication of the
suspicion felt by allied statesmen the ability
of Germany to redeem herself.
The discourtesies shown to French missions
travelling in Germany on official business showed
that thousands still dream of "Germany's place
in the sum-, and of their dissatisfaction with the

government that replaced the Hohenzollern dy-
nasty. Although dispatches so far indicate no
connection between Amerongen and DR.. Kapp,
the fact remains that he and his associates are
Pan-Gernans consequently obsessed of the same
mania that in 1914 plunged the world into the
most memorable, costly and bloody war recorded
in history.
No one believes for moment that the new
government will dare to employ the military to
oppose the execution of the terms of the YER
sailles treaty, for Germany lacks both the trans
portation system and the munitions and supplies
to engage in war. London and Paris are not wor-
ryng about such eventuality. The successful
coup of the reactionares does show, however,
that Pan-Germanism, lust for conquest, and de-
sire for world power still persist in the hearts of
many Germans. The glitter and tinsel of the old
monarchy still attracts the hearts of deluded
people, accustomed to pay homage to royalty and
more capable of receiving orders than making
laws for themselves and electing officials for
themselves. It seems to be an obvious deduction
that the German must be ruled. He cannot rule
himself.
The declaration of Dr. Kapp that the revou-
ton does not mean the restoration of the Hohen-
zoern family and that his regime would stand
for strong repubcanism with view to re-estab-
fish law, order, discipline and honest government
sounds very progressive and liberal. The world
hopes it is an honest declaration of honest men.
But the records of the men at the head of the
government invites close inspection of the real
meaning of the phrases and prompts one to Won
der if subsequent events will establish in fact
what Dr. kapp says in words.
Americans are not holding a brief for the
Ebert government, neither are they inclined to
condemn the Kapp government, but they are very
positive in their decision that Pan-Gern1an or
militaristic government shall threaten again the
peace Of the world. A return of the old monarch
cal party, with its war lords perfidious ambassa-
doris, snkers of hospital ships volators of sacred
treaties and despoilers of international laws, can
not be tolerated.
The world does not what form of govern
nent the German people select, but it does object
to the restoration of militarism and the creation
of centralized power to propagate and foment
principles radically at variance with the highest
ideals of civilization

SELE.CONFIDENcE.


This IS a very commonplace subject
eif-confidence-but it is the one
thing that We must all have If we
would be worth our salt
For without it we become mere de.
rendents.
: Everyone loves the leader - but
there never was leader who did not
have self-confidence. And the greater
the self-confldcnce, the greater the
leader.
Seif-confidence is belief in yourself
And you never know what you are
made Of, or are capable Of, until you
test yourself out. We are all created
on quite an average. 1t is our self
confidence that raises US up.
I recently heard a father tell his boy
that he would gladly get the youngstel
a bicycle if he felt that he-eeuld trust
him with it. The boys reply was very
ignificant-"How do you know that
you can trust me until you try me-
The boy got his bicycle.
No one can tell us our abilities. nc
one can tell US the heights to which
We may climb. or even aspire. We
are our own. We must try all that we
think that we are. We must believe
that we can do what we want to see
done.
Sef-confidence is often confused
with conceit Conceit is thinking with
cut having done, whereas self-con
fidence comes with the doing.
Let no man rob you of Your creates
nheritance-vour self-cOnfidence.
Go to the thing which you want tt

conviction that no discoura cement o.
setback can change YOU. Believe II

miles, and Major Mccormick had
gone there at the conclusion of his
term as agent at the Jocko agency.
Three men-Captain Higgins, his

surrounding the settlement. By i'm
proving the land, building on it, and
more by paying the taxes, they be-
came the founders of the city of Mis-

The house which Major Mccormick
caused to be built for his bride was
then located at what today is n of
the busiest corners of Missoula-
Main street and Higgins avenue. The
Isis theater and a group of stores
occupy the site today.
In this house and at this location
he and his wife lived and there their
seven children were born. Major
Mccormick continued his success in
the practice of law, in mining and
in cattle raising. He acquired con-
iderable property in the Bitter Root
to the south, where he was the
first to introduce pure bred cattle
and blooded horses In that part of
the state.
Owned Old Fort Owen
Major Mccormick some years later
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1920-11-18

acquired ownership of the famous
historical landmark of the Bitter
Root valley, Fort owen. Fort Owen
was the first permanent trading fort
to be built in Montana, it's history
dating from the 4O's. At the recent
session of the Society of Montana
Pioneers at Great Falls, the ruins of
the old fort were presented to that
organization, together with the site,
by the widow of Major Mccormick,
through her son, the congressman
elect.
1t was at Fort Owen that Major
Mccormick met his death in 1889.
At work On the roof of one of the
buildings of the old fort during a
storm, he was blown to the ground,
together with the roof. He died from
the injuries sustained.
After his death his Missoula resi-
dence was removed, because of the
demand for business property in the
center of the city, to the site where

Mccormick Family History
Major Mccormick was born at
Muneie, Delaware county, Indiana,
in 1885, the son of the Rev. William
Mccormick of Harrisburg, Va, and
the descendent of a long line of Irish
ancestors. The late John G.. Blaine
and Cyrus H. Mccormick were of the
same family.
Major Mccormick was educated at
Asbury college, now De Paw univer-
sity, at Greencastle, Indiana. He was
admitted to the bar in 1856 at the
age of 81.
Major Mccormick was the first
editor of the old Missou1a Gazette,
a pioneer newspaper of the territory,
he founded. He attended the
as a member from Mis-
soula county In 1875, 1877, 1878 and
1884.
