The following In the full text of I
the proclamation Issued by Emperor
William to tlio German nation: J
"Since the foundation of the Ger
man empire It has been for forty
three years the object of the efforts
of myself and my ancestors to pre
serve the peace of the world and to
advance by peaceful means our vig
orous development.
"Our adversaries, however, are
Jealous of the successes of our work
and there Iibb been latent hostility to
the east and the west and beyond the
seas.
"This has been borne by us until
now, as we were awaro of our respon
sibility and our power.
"Now, however, these adversaries
wish to humiliate us, asking that wo
should look on with folded nrms and
watch our enemies preparing them
selveH for the coming nttack.
"They will not suffer that wo
maintain our resolute fidelity to our
ally who Is fighting for her position
as a great power and with whose
humiliation our power anil honor
would be equally lost.
"So the Hworit must decide.
"In tho midst of perfect peace the
enemy surprises us. Therefore to
nrinsl
"Any dallying and temporizing
would bo to betray the fatherland.
To be or not to be Is the question
for the emp'ire which our futhers
founded. To be or not to he is tho
question for Get man power and Ger
man exlstcncp.
"Wo Bhnll resist to the hist breath
of man and horse ami we shnll fight
a world of enemies.
Never has Germany been subdued
when she was united.
"Forward with God, who will be
with us as ho was with our ancestors."

For Truth ami Right.
Surrounded by tho hostile and
tho envious, tho Gorman people
have taken up arms to fight tho war
for existent e which has been forced
upon them. Franco did not give
up Its thought or rovengo for n
moment slucu tho seventies, mid
employed tho first opportunity to
convert the thought Into deed. Events
so far clearly and surely show that
the common attack of Gormany's
united enomlcB was propnrcd long
ago, and watt thought out to the
slightest detail. For tho porson
who goes to tho bottom of tho mat
ter without prejudlco, and who real
ly considers Germany's position,
there exists HO doubt thnt the cm
plro was forped to tnko up arms to
fight, not nlono for ItB honor, but
for Its very 'existence.
Gcrmany'fl enemies wanted war
because they woro of tho opinion
that their united forces would suc
ceed in humiliating tho mighty na
tion which so long wiib a thorn In
tho flesh of all of thorn.. Neverthe
less; wo believe, with fair certainty,
that wo may cntortnln tho opinion
that tho ononiles of Germany have
inlsealciilaled. A finflon of 70,000,
000 pgoplu. fighting for a Just cause
Ih not nn ensy to conquer ns tho
enemies of 'Germany may have Im
agined. Wo will boo that the won
derful spirit pervading tho German
army and unvy, coupled with the
efficiency uud bravery of tho offi
cers, 'will completely outweigh what
advantage the opponents of Germany
have In numbers. And what Is said
hero of Germany holds good also
of Austria-Hungary, for this nation
also fights for a high Ideal, fights
for Germnnlo culture against the
efforts to Russlanlzo Europo.
To emphasize theso facts at every
opportunity Is tho duty of every
trla.

THE Tl
SITUATION ACUTE
iSMll '
WASHINGTON, I). C, Sept. 1.
An ucutu situation has arisen In tho
Balkan states over the possible en
try ot Turkey Into the European
war, according to officlnl advices
to the American government from
various sources. Turkey has not
yet given Great Britain, Franco
and Russia a consistent explanation
of the entry Into the Dardanelles of
tho tlerniau cruisers Gueben mid
Brcslnu.
When It was first reported that
Turkey had purchased theso ves
sels Great Britain, Franco mid
Russia demmiih'd that tho crews or
tho two ships be repatriated Imme
diately. Dispatches revealed that
the German crews were still aboard
the cruisers.
IiiuI-m Italy mid ' recce.
Many Washington diplomats fa
miliar with the situation consider
it practically certain that should
Turkey sldu with Germany mid Aus
tria, Italy would abandon her posi
tion of neutrality and Join Groat
Britain, France, Russia and Ser
vla, who could count also upon tho
assistance of Greece.
Greeco Is under martial law with
ts army mobilized along tho trea
ties watching Turkey's movements,
Tho troops of the Ottoman omplro
are quietly mobilizing without pub
lic order to that effect. Italy's or
der for mobilization on August 27
s believed hero to bo duo to some
extent to Turkey's military activity.
U. S. Vitally Interested.
The United States Is watching tho
Mtuntlou In Turkey probably be
cause or the presence there ot hun
dreds or American missionaries.
Ambassador Mnrgauthaii has been
making long reports on tho situa
tion and for a time, n week ago,
the situation seemed nlnrmlng. Tho
governor of one or the Turkish
provinces had threatened mnssacro
to Americans If Turkey mid Eng
land went to war.
Sir. .Morganthuii Immediately took
up tho subject with the Turkish
Foreign Orrice and locolvod nssur
auco that If any subordinate offi
cials had made such threats they
would be censured and that Amor
leans would he accorded respect and
courtesy In every eventuality.
Thought of Sending Troops
For a time tho Washington gov
ernment had under consideration a
suggestion from Ambassador Slor
gauthau that troops be sent for
salutary effect, hut after reassuring
advices from hlui this was abandon
ed and It Is now declared thoro Is
no cause for alarm
The cruisers N'oitli Carolina and
Tonnosseo, now in European wnfora
on a mission of relief, would bo
available In case of oniorgoncy to
bring Americans nway. Latest re
ports show that Americans feel fin fo
und that their only dlffloulty is In
cashing letters of credit, a prob
lem, however, rapidly being solved
by tho American government's
beard of relief. The crulsor North
Carolina probably IU visit Turkoy
and other countries of Southern
Europe with gold tor AuiorlcniiB.
