Tho French correspondent of tho Ex

Into action for the first tlmo on Fri
day and Saturday. It wag only an
affair of outposts and scouting, but
interesting because of tho light it

Tho correspondent centinues:
'Detachments wero scouting In tho
country to the westward of Urussols

haukted though tho German cavalry

success lay In continued rapid ad

soo. tho socialists inookly oboyiug tho ooinuiamls of tho
blood lust lords of tho earth ami niarohiuir proudly to tho
slausjhtor along with tho rest of tho barbarians.
Tho Gorman follower or Karl Alnrx published a proc
lamation within tho month, styling tho demands of Aus
tria the "most brutal ever made in all history on an inde
pendent state and calculated entirely to provoke war."
The call concluded as follews:
Tho class conscious proletariat of Germany raises In tho nnmo of human,
ily and cMHzatlon n flaming protest against the criminal action of the wn?
makers. Wo nro threatened with n world war. Tho ruling class who in
tlmos of peace, gag, despise nnd exploit you now wish to uso you ns food for
cannon. Everywhere must ho brought to the earn of tho tyrants, "Wo
Want no War; Down with War; Up with tho International llrotherhood of
the Peoples."
Yet the proletariat 'furnishes the food for the caunoi
as cheorfullv as it toted Prussianism upon its back for
tho oast fortv vonrs. "War
temporarily routed class consciousness and human broth
erhood. The German socialist is evidently willing to join
the "international brotherhood of the peoples only when
the German flag flies over Europe and the kaiser becomes
emperor of the world.
Likewise the English and French socialists have shoul
dered their arms and marched to the slaughter, firm in
the conviction that the brotherhood of man can only obtain
when Prussianism shall be no more and liberalism rises
from the ruin of militarism. IF. G. "Wells, the English
socialist and author, writes:
The opportunity of liberalism lin come nt last an ovorw helming op
portunity. The age of mlltnrlsm has rushed to its Inevitable nnd yet sur
prlslngcllmax. The great soldier empire made for war. which has domlnntcd Kurow
for to years has pulled Itself up by tho roots and flung Itself Into the strug
gle for which it was made. Whether It win or lo&o It will never put Itself
back again.
Whichever tetlde defeat or deadlock the capitalist military civlllin
tion dislocates Itself nnd ends.
However, as the first preliminary towards redrawing
the map of Europe with the rankling sores Jo. ft out,
French, English and Belgian socialists are firm in the con
viction that Prussian militarism must be overthrown, eost
what it may, lest it bestride the world like a Colossus and
by "blood and iron" keep humanity chained to the chariot
of barbarism Tor centuries longer.
In its first great opportunity, socialism has failed. The
socialist is still a slave to formula. Convention is still
stronger than conviction. Loyalty to the ruling caste is
still above loyal ty'to class or humanity. The crudities and
injustice of the existing order are still preferred to the
longed-for perfection of Utopia.
