The Dalles Daily Chronicle. SUBSCRIPTION PKICE. One week , . .$ 15 One month ; . . . 50 One year 6 00 SUNDAY AUGUST 14, 1898 A WAR WITH GERMANY. Of all the possibilities suggested "by out war with Spain, perhaps the possibility of a war with Germany growing out of it is the most pre posterous, says the New York World. By the constitution of the German empire, the emporer is not in Ger many. While the emperor can de dare war if defensive, to declare war if not merely defensive he must have the consent of the Bundesrath or Federal Council. The fifty-eight members of this body are appointed by the governments of the respective states of the empire, Prussia's seven teen members beinjf outnumbered by the delegations of the three king doms of Bavaria, Saxony and Wur temberg, with the grand duchies of Baden and Hesse, or by the twenty one members from the smaller politi cal divisions. In order to involve Germany ia war with the United States the emporer would not only have to get the consent of the varying interests in the Bundesrath, but he would also have to get the consent ofthe public opinion, which is the greatest force of all. If Germany had a just cause oi war no doubt the national feeling would respond. But without such injury to the national interest as would constitute a just cause, and without an appeal to the national feeling or prejudice or honor, the in telligence and self-interest of the nation would assert themselves against war. But assuming the im probable, what sould Germany do? Send her armies to this country ? Absurd and ridiculous! How could she do it? Where would our navy be? And what would be her posi tion at home? She would immediately have France across the Rhine, and trouble possibly with Russia, Austria and even Denmark. No country in Europe is more powerful than Ger many, but none is more exposed to danger. She has not a sincere friend on any frontier. In spite of her triple alliance, she knows that she cannot depend on either Italy or Austria. And even within her own domain she has a great many ele ments of danger, such as the Freneh in Alsace Lorraine, the Danes in Schleswig-IIolstein and the Poles in what was formerly part of Poland. German statesmen know how little they can trust their neighbors and how much they have to look out for France, and they are not foolish enough to make crazy experiments. As to a mere naval struggle be tween America and Germany, hardly any' comment is necessary. Ger many has during the past twenty years built some very good ships. In numbers and on paper her navy i3 formidable. But the real power of a navy is not in tonnage or even in guns, but in trained aptitude of the race, in the education, develop ment, heredity and breeding pro duced not by twenty years but by centuries. Before the Franco-German war Germany -practically had no warships. In fact, so destitute was she of naval aspiration before that event that there was not even a secretary of the navy iu any of the states of Germany. . The whole suggestion of a war with Germany is, as we have said, preposterous. Nowhere outside of Germany is the true German char acter better understood and rppre ciated than m this country, and our sure reliance for the , continua tion of our friendly relations rests on our knowledge of the good sense and intelligence of the German peo ple, who would be almost unanimous in their protest against the mere thought of so unnatural a struggle. There may be nothing at all In the rumor of an impending disagreement between Great Britain and Russia, but such a rumor is 'quite enough fo keep the powers of Europe occupied with their own interests to. the ex clusion of any idea of interference in the affairs of the United States or in our relations with Spain.
