There was uniform system of -currency or welghts and measures, - We schoolboys were obliged to learn no less than three different systems of currency in order to be able to ‘give and make change. Life was simple and primitive, The houses, even-in ‘the big cities, were without plumbing, The gity of Berlin had no sewags system, Nobody ever thought of the possibility ef such a thing as German efMeciency, The Gar- mans were plodding, industrious, but they were commonly considered-to be slow and beWnd the times by the rest of the world. During that first year there occurred the war between Prus- sla on the one hand and Austria, with its German allles - en ths other, which led to tho formation of the North Ger- man confederation, Four years later the war with France began which re- sulted in the formation of the German empire, That war wa able invesiment for Germany, Giffen, the dlstinguished FEnglish sta- tistictan, made a studv of its cost a few years after it occurred, He proved that, counting the direct cost of the war, including pensions, locs of in- come, ete., and crediting Germany with what' she mained by the war {ndemnity and by the new territory. she made a net galn of about $750,000,000,000.

She adopted tpe metric system of weights and measures. She strength- ened and modernized her administra- tion. She developed enormously, as we know, her manufactures, her for- eign trade, her. mercantile marine and her agriculture- all aided and rein- forced by her. science. With this prosperity there came also the political philosophy of which I wish particu- larly to speak. Treitschke’s Doctrines. The name of Treitschke has been frequently mentioned since the war began, so much so that his works have actually been republished in :English. I attended his Jectures when a student [in Berlin forty years .ago. I : little thought then that I should be taking’ my shabby notebook from its shelf to get material for a speech to be made in the interest of a war between the United States and Germany; but that is. what I have- done, and here are some of his doctrines as I. colleoted them from the fountain head: “The greatest sin.that a statesman can commit is weakness. It is a sin against the Holy Ghost of the state. Magnanimity "is occasionally to.be used when it is a question of recon- ciling an. opponent, but it is not mag- nanimous to sacrifice the interest of the state to any romantic idea * * * *. “The purpose of the state is power, and nothing can be more moral than this purpose. The statesman is often in a position to choose between two B in order to maintain this high- est good, but the diplomat lies (if he |does” so) for.the. advantage of the state, while the merchant lies for his jown advantage. The impulse of..a youthful state to destroy an old, de- crepit state stands higher than all Imaxims of positive Jaw. The states- {man is immoral who acts unwise- ly. * * * * & When a stite has the choice between the moral and the im- moral, it should choose the moral for good faith is.in politics and real pow- er, but often the obtaining of a moral purpose sanctifies immoral means. It Gepends upon the opinion of place and time. ‘Concealment of Facts Justified. “Since a state has its own power as ifs purpose, it is quite unthinkable that a state should sacrifice itself to a higher purpose. * * * * * Bribery should not be used in the internal af- fairs of a state, but in relations with other states, it is sometimes neces- sary to resort to it. The concealment of facts is just as much justified and morally right, as for instance the con- cealment of facts by the chancellor before the war of 1870, because, in view of the cupidity of the French, he foresaw the wa We students looked upon Treitschke an an extremist and his viéws often called forth protests, even from the German students, but they have pro- duced their effect, and when we go iback to these maxims which were set Lefore generations of German stu. dents, including not a few army offi- cers who attended his lectures even in my time, We have the key both to the logic and to the actions of Germany in the present war. We have an ex- planation of this sentence in the fa- mour manifesto sent by 93 of the most distinguished scholars and scientists of Germany to the civilized world in the first year of the war which said: “It is not true that we trespassed in neutral Belgium. It has been proved that France and England had resolved on such a trespass, and it has likewise been proved that Belgtum had agreed to their doing so. It would have been suicide on our part mot to have been beforehand.” This philosophy explains the assassination of Belgium, the sinking of the Lusitania, of the Sus- sex and of the scores of other boats with their passengers, including neu- trals, non-combatants, women and children. It explains the deportation of Belzians and Frenchmen. It ex- plains the destruction of the very im- plements of husbandry in the eccupied regions of France. It explains the judicial murder of Bdith Cavell and Captain Fryatt. It explains the mas- sacre of the Armenians which Ger- many did nothing to prevent, if she did_not instigate it. Now it does little good to call the Germans Huns or barbarians. We have Germans among us who have been rec- ognized as among our most substan- tial and useful citizens. Many of us bave personal friends in Germany with whom “our relations have been cordial and kindly, with whom we could con- verse on matters of science or mor- als or liberation, or art with as much freedom -and’ mutual understanding as if they were descendants of the Puri- tans. ~ But these people who remain kindly and hospitable .as individuals, _ are obsessed with a philosoohy of the nfil‘e‘ ‘which makes them collectively ‘the enemies of humanity. That is the real distinction between tho German government and ; the German people. It is the distinction between persons acting .as {nd s under one code of thics and acting as members of a state urder an 2ot rely different. code of thics, ‘4 code which, without any ex- aggeration, puts might above right. Contrasts Political Philosophy. The contrast between the German political - philosophy” and ours is_so patent as to be obvious to all. The Declaration ~ of Independence put among the rights of mankind; life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Germany puts the power of the state above the happiness of the Individual. When we formed an independent gov- ernment, we gave our reasons out of regard to “a decent respect to the opinions of mankind,” Germany de- fles_the opinion of mankind and sets up her own doctrine of might in oppo- sition to them, Our idea is the great- est good of the greatest number. Ger- many’s 1s Deutschland uber allis, There is a parallel between the enc- my that we: are fighting now and the enemy that we were fighting at the time of the Clvil war, The southern- ers as indjviduals were warm-hearted, hospitable, friendly, but in the course of time they had become commiticd to the Institution of slavery which the rest of the world had come to regard ns barbarous, The greatest men of the southern states, such as Wash ington and Jefferson had worked for and advocated the abolition of slavery, but the southerners of n later genern- tlon ‘thought that it paid, elr pe- cunlary interests were {nvolved, and statesmen like Calhoun actually ideal- ized the institution, just as many (ler- mans idealize . their own, institutions and what they call their “kultur,” if the south had succeeded in the Civil war, they would have proved their point, at any rate for many vears to come, and if Germany succeeds in this war, ‘she will prove, in her own opin- ion at least, her point. She will prove that her institutions, including her philosophy of the state are superior to ours, and she will drive the matter home by exacting the greatest dam- ages ever' exacted from a conquered country by a ruthless conqueror: The indemnity” of $1,000,000,000 exacted from France as a crushing penalty, in 1871, will seem like a drop in th bucket compared with what German: will exact from us. The Panama ca- nal cost us about $300,000.000. That L it he . Ask your neighbor Liberty Bond.

Murphy & McGarry 207 Main Street would be one of the smallest things that. ‘Germany would exact as the price of her victory. The facts indi- cate that Germany went into this war as_an investment, for she started in with, the plan.of paying her expenses by loans, in the firm expectation that she would get it back from her con- quered enemies. She has .doubtless made a much bigger investment than she ever dreamed of making in the beginning, and if successful, will ex- act as her profit a corresponding in- demnity. It is not necessary to sup- pose that Germany captures a part of the territory of the United States or even that she helps Mexico get back the states which we have built up and organized and for which we paid Mexico In the bezinning. A mere in- demnity payable in cash or bonds or bills of exchange would make eaoh one of us a taxpayer to Germany. This is not imaginary. It is simply what Germany has done in the past and what her political philosophy tells her will now be demanded by her own code of ethics in the future. We have been slow in waking up. We have been slow in moving. I believe that we have been criminally slow, but there is no use In crying over spilt milk. The problem of the day is to make up for the past. It is tp pay our 2nd Col.)
