Il feel sure" he said, that the
great war recently concluded would
never have taken place if all the
printing presses in the world had
been destroyed in the year 1900. The
discomfort of the subject peoples of
Europe could not have been famed

This war was a continuation of
the Civil War in England, of the

Evidence of this fact is found in that
the principal result of the war has
been the overthrow of monarchial
