The Chicago Daily News makes a
remarkably graphic editorial an
nouncement OF it's publication this
week of the. German lex kaiser's Own
Story Of the War Tits an unusually
fine literary performance. Here it is :;
The ex-Kaiser's Own Story
"The sacrifice was in vain"-Thus
the eX-ka.ser of Germany in his amaz-
ing autobiography sums up the re-
suits of his abdication!
That is only one of the innumerable
sententious judgments passed upon
great events, upon anointed rulers,
powerful statesmen and military COM
manders by the leading participant in
political affairs of Europe for period
of thirty crowded years.
The Daily News has co-operated in
the negotiations for the purchase OF
the American publication rights to the
ex-kaiser's own story and takes
pleasure in announcing that it has the
exclusive privilege Of newspaper SER
ial publication in Chicago and the
surrounding territory.
Not since Napoleon, eXiled on St
Helena, dictated his autobiography
has there been written a story of a
career that can compare in import
ance with the story told by the eX-
emperor now in exile at Doom. AS a
historic narrative it is Of absorbing
interest. Yet, like Napoleon's, it is
replete with extraordinary misstate-
ments and wierd misconceptions. 1t
is, indeed, a piece of self revelation
that must make it a fascinating study
for students of the mentality of men
who have exercised large authority
Here for the first time the world is
given an adequate opportunity to dis
cover the mental processes, the dom
mating opinions and the accepted
moral guides to action that made
William of Germany the Overshadow-
ing figure in European affairs during
three spacious decades filed with sig
nificant events.
What did William think of Bis
marck, his imperial grandfather's iron
chancellor, whose services he so soon
dispensed with after he succeeded to
the royal and imperial throne of the
Hohenzollerns? William tells you at
the beginning of his memoirs. And
starting at that turning point in the
life of a great and virile nation, he
proceeds to relate his version of the
developments that slowly but implac
ably divided Europe into two power
full armed camps and so prepared it
for the day when the nations, so
aligned, suddenly grappled in titanic
war.

Evolution and Scripture
 Made to Agree


 A fellow. who is a scientist or a crank. it's sometimes hardato tell them apart. came in the other night and gave his theory of the much discussed Evolution" of man from the monkey family. He was educated in the public schools of a city which brides it. self on it's superior schools. and some years later by a fall was laid up for several years in a un- iversity town and read all the books he could, and his theory is a crazy-quilt patch work of the bible, history, legends, supersti- tion. and mythology. To us it is a new idea, and while we will have to study the theory before we endorse it, still we recom- mend 1t to those who want to be- lieve that their ancestors were monkeys, as we believe this is the most convincing proof that they now have that they evoluted from an animal inferior to Adam, and if they will study further along this mans line of reasoning they may be so thoroughly convince d that he is right that they will go back into the jungles with their kinfolks.
 This scientist or crank. our readers may classify him accord ing to their own ideas. says that there're undoubtedly two distinct families of men one the descend ants of Adam and much older race which.evoluted from the ape. This ape-man is inferior to the Adam not possessing a soul and therefore not partakers of eternal life. As his proof from the bible he cites the passages teaching predestinatlon. The ape-man is destroy at death, as all apes were ordained to be be- fore the foundation of the world. while the Adam man has a soul which puts on a new body after death and lives eternally. That this ape-man IS similar in appear ance but inferior to the Adam man he proves .by the fact that after Cain killed Able and mark was put on his forehead that no man might kill him and driven off, d fugitive and vagabond up- on the earth. No decent person would associate with him, so he went to the Land of Nod" and married an ape-woman. He points to the cave man. covered with long hair, which slowly de- veloped through long ages before Adam was created. into man very like Adam, yet Adams pos terity were never cave men. This would account for the diff erence between the scientists and the bible as to the length of time man has been on earth. The ape-man is the man scientists claim inhabited the world long before the time the bible gives for the creation of Adam. That there has alway been two kinds of men on earth he proves by mythology. The ancient people told of a superior man. whom they called gods. who visited the beautiful daughters of men, feil in love with them, and a super

man was born to them. This pseudo-scientist claims that these gods were the sons of Adam, and therefore their offsprings were super-men compared to the ape man. That this distinction be- tween the ape-man and Adam man is know by the inner con- sciousness. Cor we might term it instinct) of man and has always been known is proven by the "castes" or classes of society which has always been so closely drawn. This distinction in castes IS especially drawn tight in the countries where the A5am-race started. This difference was we'll known at the beginning and the castes were established to keep the two races apart. That was also the purpose of the biblical injunction to marry one in the church. He says that while the ape-man and Adam man has crossed so much that 1t is now difficult to distinguish them, if you follow that bible in- junction you will seldom miss it,
 for the ape-men. knowing by in- stinct that they have no souls, are skeptics, infidels. atheists. no-hellites and followers of the Darwin theory of evolution. In superstition and folklore this near-scientist points to the belief in goblins, witches. and demons which he believes is the remnant of what was once the knowledge possessed by the Adam-man of this inferior man which they were taught to shun. The belief in fairies, genii and other super- for beings who worked for our advantage or disadvantage. ac. cording to whether we had off, tended them or not. He says that sis what remains of the knowledge possessed by the ape man of the existence of the superior man. As the races have mixed so all people have learned these old traditions. That these ape-men know that they are an inferior being even at this late day he attempts to prove by the
 fact that woman might look like a natural woman and her neighbors might think she was a good woman yet she knew all the time that she was witch. So he claims that the ape-men on earth now have an inner knowl- edge that they are the inferior being, have no souls and have no hope of future life therefore make up our criminal classes, and those who preach strange doctrines contrary to the bible.
 He has lot of other points to prove that he is right, but we are ashamed of ourselves for wasting so much space with his fool theory, yet it is so much more reasonable than Darwin's theory of evolution and has 60 much more bible. history etc. to prove it than Darwin had. that we suggest that you cut this out and let the next skeptic. nO-hell- ite or Darwinite VI ho talks his rot to you read 1t. and when he sees that at least one man agrees with him that he is an ape, if not an ass, maybe he will not attempt to fnrop hi, U,aWS np vOII oOQIn

To What Extent Is Law
 Responsible For Crime?

Washington, May Is Capital News Service). Legislators at the National Capital, especially those with legal traini ng, and lawyers are much interested in the report of the committee ap- pointed by the American Bar As- sociation to investigate the causes of crime. It is understood from preliminary reportsofthe commit. tee that among other things crime in volume in large cities is large ly laid to wears of mollycodding and sympathy by misinf formed and ill-advised meddlers" which has "disintegrated the admins tration of justic." ;" It has also been said that crime increases or decreases in community in step with the swiftness or slow ness of the administration of justice. Where the courts act quickly. crime decreases: where there are the proverbial laws delays" between arrest and trial, crime increases.
 What no committee from a Bar Association could be expected to report is called attention to by many who have the best interests of the law at heart; that much crime is caused by inequalities and injustices within the body of the law itself. A case in point is the committal to jail on con- tempt of court sentences three iyears old of a number of women Tn Chicago. During the Interval between the oifense and the punishment the women have married and have babies. and four mothers with children in arms were incarcerated. Cover. nor Small, taking cognizance of their changed conditions. prompt ,y pardoned them. but the jailer could not turn them loose, even though he had to pay for the keep of the children from his own pocket, because the lawyers held the pardoning power of the governor does not extend to con. tempt of court offenders. They were finally released by action of the judge.
 Law which makes innocent children suffer. and which finds difficulties in correction of it's injustice, it is pointed out in Washington, is bad law, and bad
 
 law makes for crime.
 A further cause for crime is stated to be the intolerance and fanaticism of the reformer, which brackets an offense against a law of man with an offense against law of nature and makes no differentiation between the two offenders. AS an instance of this. Congressmen in Wash. ington point to the statement of a well-known Senator that the offender against the dry law is as criminal as one who commits murder, a sentiment which finds no echoes in any iudical mind.
 That the United States govern ment IS not by any means free from the taint of unnecessary delays and injustices has been pointed out with an interesting If absurd example. Chairman Fordney of the Ways and Means Committee told the House that he was threatened with arrest for failure to pay a bill of 72 cents in his 1917 income tax. He made the point that if the government was four years behind in auditing and could find no better method Of correcting errors than by arresting men who had done their best to meet the laws of the country, 1t was time the
