WILL BERLIN ES
CAPE A COMMUNE?
The strain and disappointment of
the Franco-Prussian war ended in
the Commune that controlled Paris
through the spring of 1S71 until it
was overthrown by national troops
An interesting hint of a possible his
torical parallel has developed in the
seizure of Berlin by the revolution
ists.
In both instances the fertile field
for the radicals was prepared by the
misery and want of large masses of
jthe population.
Paris had just come through a
prolonged siege. It had been a re
publican city for years, and through
a good share of the life of the em
pire of Napoleon III it had been
sending to the National Assembly
deputies committed to a republican
form of government. With the dis
aster for which Napoleon was held
responsible, it had become more
strongly republican than ever.
The National Assembly, which
was sympathetic toward the mon -
archy, was distrustful of Paris, and
moved the capital to Versailles. The
resulting business depression gave
the opportunity to the radicals. They
took control of Paris and defied the
National Assembly. As soon as
troops could be collected the siege of
Paris began. It lasted two months.
and ended with a week of destruc
tive fighting after the national
troops had gained an entrance.
Prominent men, including the
archbishop of Paris, had been seiz
ed as hostages by the troops of the
I Commune, and were put to death
The national troops took a bloody
vengeance. It is estimated that
seventeen thousand men connected
with the Commune were shot. In
the next year or two, more than tor

DIVINE RIGHT"
SURRENDERED
"The kaiser has abdicated."
So said Prince Maximilian, then
then German chancellor, announc
ing William Hohenzollern's retire
ment from the throne.
But Prince Max overlooked the
more important event. The kaiser
signed the paper which cast aside
Ihe throne. But before he did that,
he must have done something else.
He must have dissolved that "Me
und Gott" partnership.
The kaiser owed nothing to the
German people. He ruled by divine
right. How often was the world re
minded of that! No ordinary mortal
was William Hohenzollern, emperor
and king. He held a commission
from God. In later years he even
east aside such an assumption of
subordination and became the sen
ior partner of the firm of "Me and
Gott."
Why then should he abdicate to
the German people? What mattered
it that the German people were dis
pleased? The kaiser's only alleg
iance, so he told us all was to his
own special copyrighted and patent
ed edition of God a truly wonder
ful, an unbelievable God at that.
When the kaiser abdicated, he did
more than most monarchs have done
under similar circumstances. Mon
archs who accepted the throne as a
trust from the people, when they
abdicated simply gave it back. But

to the new administrators, with the
population and soldiers singing the
Marseillaise in the streets of the
capital, the armies in the field will
not be deaf to the message of the
hour. Their temper of to-morrow, if
not of to-day, may be accurately re
vealed in the conduct of those indi
viduals and units that have already
accepted capture, declaring that
with the end of the struggle in

In the proclamation issued to the
"citizens" of Germany by Chancel
lor Kbert is disclosed a tone new to
German state documents, lis words
are neither bombastic nor menacing
Instead of endeavoring to coerce the
German stato documents. Ilks words
deavors to reason with them. Fore
casting as he does acceptance of the
armistice terms offered by Marshal
K.Kh in behalf of the Allies and the
United Stales, the Chancellor lays
hare to the public the grim necessi
ties of its case, and points out to it
the supreme requirement of a situa
tion in which their preservation
from the miseries of anarchy can be
won only by the preservation of
good order through self-restraint.
This proclamation is the antithesis
of the outgivings of the Imperial
Government in apparent sincerity.
At present there appears to be rea
son to hope. If not to expect, that
the German people, profiting by
their discipline and their generally
high level of education, may make
the transition from autocracy to de
mocracy without a prolonged inter
val of madness such as has laid
Russia prostrate. That this may be
the case will he the sincere prayer
of all enlightened men who labor
for the permanent enthronement of
honorable peace throughout the
earth.
-:o:-
FEEDING GERMANY.
It seems extraordinary that Ger
many, after using every ounce of
her strength to the hurt of the whole
world, should now appeal to us for
help, pleading that her millions are
about to perish from starvation. But
Germany has thought, first and last,
of herself alone, of her own needs,
whatever they may be. She tried
force and now. has to fall back on
an appeal to pity. Hunger is a
great humbler of pride. What is
more extraordinary than her appeal
is that the United States will ac
cede to her request. We can do no
less, since she has given up the
struggle. Food will be the first step
in reconstruction.
In view of the horrors which Ger
many has launched upou the world
it would seem a just punishment
that her people should die of want
but it is a punishment that we can
not carry on our consciences. The
n -i
vengeful can console themselves
with the thought that there is in
finite suffering in Germany which
even our speediest aid cannot avert
and tnat the revolutinoary disorders
is continually adding to her difficul
ties. There are inevitable punish
ments bound up in her conduct
which will work their own retribu
tion. Germany will now have leisure
to think of the enormous stores of
food she has destroyed. She cannot
but remember the shiploads of meat
of grain and of sugar she has sent to
the bottom of the ocean of the fields
she has laid waste and rendered un
productive for years to come.
Before Germany's needs are con
sidered, the invaded territories will
have their wants supplied. She will
have to wait while she sees food put
Into the hungry mouths of those she
has despoiled. But eventually, when
our own more pressing needs, those
of the allies and of the suffering
I thousands in invaded land are as-
suased. we will heln in the feeding

Not even a animal can work without
