Germany is of eourse going td turn the reply of President -Wilson to the proposals of Popé Benedict to its own use in as many ways as pbssible, even though it dbes so through a wrong in- terpretation thereof. At the present time the claim .is being circulated throughout that country to the effect that the head of the United States government is endeavering to get his finger into the management of the internal affairs of the empire. This results from the insistencé by this country that negotiations cannot be carried on with the imperial German trustworthy and treacherous in such dealings as we have had with it since the opening of the war, but it is en- deavoring to solidify the German peo- ple in the support thereof by endeav- oring to convince them thaf this coun- try is meddling in their affairs. - What this coun‘ry wants is not to dictate to th> German people what they shall do, or what they shall not do. The president is insisting, how- ever, that al] future dealings will have to be carried on with representatives who are responsible to the people and not solely” to themselves, as is the case today, where the German policy is dictated by one man. If the emperor was responsible to the people, which he is not, the situa- tion. would be different. It remains for the German peBple to say whether the Hohenzollerns must be put out or whether they are allowed to remain as the head of the government but sub- ject to the will of the people, but what this government will not do, and that is what the note makes perfectly clear, is to have anything more to do with the German government as it is now constituted, a stand decidedly differ- _ent from what that government is try- ing to represent. PROMPT SUPPRESSION NEEDED. Following up the . Investigations which have been underway since the threatening attitude of the I. W. W. throughout the west has been mani- fested, the ‘government has come to the conclusion ‘that it must be deter- mined now rather than later just what sort of an attitude is szoing to be manifested towards the policy and acts of that organization. It has de- cided to do this by going right to the fountain head and there should be a mass of evidence obtained through the’ systematic raids which were made up- on the headquarters of that organiza- tion in different sections of the coun- try. chiefly west of the Mississippi, to show whether it is engaged in treas- onable activity. For a long time the I. W. W. has been engaged in work wvhich was in- tended to embarrass the industrial activity of the country. There has been opposition of a serfous nature to the conscription legislation, threats have been made that crops would be destroyed, that property would "be burned, that transportation would be demoralized, and in some' instances actudl steps have been taken to put these threats into operatidn. Some- thing in the nature of a period of ter- ror has been caused by the efforts of these disturbers.. The effort to drag organized labor into the plan has in- variably failed but there has been a pcru&ont defiance of law. and order, and the government has decided, to act none too soon in putting an end suppression ‘is re- e that it would be a.serious handicap to | Game. jrun up to the a | drive o wedse into Austrla government which has been found un.
