However, it is not a pleasing outlook of what the United States will do in the fu ture. A Hose study ol these various lines of prophecy makes one intelli fienl concerning: important world events." J'eopheslos Fulfilled, hen asked regard mtf the present war situation, he said: "Then Home prophecies in the hihle which clearly indicate that in I lie last davs the nations will he anurv, and that this condition will continue to the vnd of the world s history.

Such a proposal is horn of the imperial desperation. "Whom the nods would destrov, thev first make mad." The plot is in keeping with (Icrmany's foreign policy, with the JMachiavelism that rules the empire. Like the Assyrian of old, the (Icrnian rulers seek triumph through the destruction and enslavement of humanity, and no phase of f rightfulness is too awful to employ, no friendship val ued enough not to betray, no treaty so sacred it will not be sacrificed. Since the kaiser first determined that the time was ritK: for ( Jermany to compier the world, he has interfered among the factions of .Mexico, seeking to embroil the United States in a struggle that would center attention and absorb their energies so that he would be given a free hand in Kuropc. While (icrman agents were blowing up niuni tion'plants in friendly United States, conducting propa ganda to influence public sentiment, interfering with elections, and seeking to divide the nation, other agents were busy in Mexico. It is not a mere coincidence that whenever relations between the I'nited States and (lermanv became strained. the border lawlessness assumed menacing proportions. When the Lusitania tragedy of May 7, 191!!, precipitated a crisis, Iluerta, the deposed dictator, backed by (.icrnian money and (icrnian agents, was plotting violence. Jlis arrest in .J une caused Yon K'intelen's plans to miscarrv and his death prevented the revelation of the plot at his trial While the crisis iirecinitated bv the sinking: of the An cona on November !), 191"), was intensifying the submarine issue, the attack by .Mexicans upon American troops upon their own soil took place at Nogales. The sinking of the Persia, December :!0, 1915, was fol lowed by the massacre of Americans at Santa Ysabel, Jan uary .10, 19K). (icrnian propagandists sought to commit the American congress to abandon American rights upon! the sea at the kaiser s dictation, and the defeat of the pro posal was followed by the .Mexican raid upon Columbus. N. M., of March 8. New border depredations and renewed activity by Villa preceded the renewal of U-boat warfare. The battle of l'arral and oilier outrages were traced directly to the ceaseless activity of (ierinan agents, who have financed the .Mexican bandits. WOMEN PREPARE FOR PEACE!

The (icrnian viewpoint is incomprehensible to citizens of the United States. The difference between psychology of the Prussian niililarv caste and that of citizens of self- ruling democracies is as wide as the sea. It is this differ ence that is the fundamental cause of the great war. Jt is this difference that has caused the break between Ihe United States and (iennanv. I u a recent issue of the. Westminster Gazette, ante dating the break between America and Germany, Gilbert Murray gives his interpretation of the irreconcilable con flict between the Prussian mental attitude toward militar ism and the mental attitude of the rest of the world. We take the liberty of publishing the following synopsis: e all remember the old philosophic doctrine ot the 'social contract' as the origin ol ordered society; that men lived at hrst in a 'state of nature,' with no laws, no duties to one another, no relationship every man a wolf to every other man and, then finding that condition intoler able, they met together and made a contract, and hence arose civilized society. He fore anv contract is possible there must be at: least the elementary understanding that it a man pledges Ins word he should keep it. It is that primary understanding, that elementary sense of brotherhood or of public right, which it seems to us the present government ol (iennanv m its dealing with foreign nations has sought to stamp out of existence. It has rejected the old ordinance which has held civilized Kurope together. It has acted ou a new ordinance that every nation shall be a wolf to its neighbor. rui nanny i mis. this degree ol wickedness will seem hard to believe of such a nation as Germany. The neutral will suspect that we are just venting our anger in abuse. Hut I think we can see how it came about. Germany is the great country of specialization. Above all. she has pro du I the specialized soldier, the Christian soldier, tin chivalrous soldier, or the soldier with the sense of civi dut it's; bul the soldier who is I rained to be a soldier and nothing else, to disregard all the rest of human relations, to see all his country's neighbors merely as enemies to be duped and eiiiiqttcred. to see all life according to some sys tem of perverted biology as a mere si niggle of force and fraud. The Germans have created this type of soldier, able, concentrated, conscienceless and remorseless; anil then what no other people in the world has done they have given the nation over to his guidance. "Of course we all have armies. We all have military experts and strategists. Hut with the rest of us the sol dier is the last resort, like the executioner. We call him up only when all other means have failed. Hut in Germany the soldier is. always present. He is behind the diplomat ist. In hind Ihe ed i ica ,,r. behind the preacher; he is behind the philosopher in his study and ihc man of science in his h 'at on ; alwas present and always in authority. " I n oi her iia t ions the sword is the servant of the public welfare, ;l s;iva' sen ant never used but in the last neces sity; in ( o-i many all the resource of the nalion, its banks and railw.n s. its schools and universities, its very religion and philosophy, are the servants of the sword. "It is this vhicii gives lo our present war something of the quality of a crusade against the infidel. It is this which makes peace so difficult aiHeonfidcncc so impos sible. It was something approaching to ibis which made it impossible for Kurope to live al peace with Napoleon; for Ihe other Italian states to hve at peace with 'esare Horgia. "And the tragedy is that, in each case, so much devo tion and such great v irtues should he used merely as tools rowani a purpose winch the human conscience rejects intolerable."

I have said in all kindness that he's convalescent. His own dis covery proves It. Hope runs concur rently with the thread of life. Said this convalescent person this morning: "Mr. Mills, who said in an interview yesterday that many thousands of dollars' worth of mod ern machinery is being shipped to low-grade mining proposition in Alaska, might have some difficulty to prove it." And then this unhappy individual, for whoso recovery faint hope is entertained, said other things unworthy to be printed in a clean I column like this. i Cnrpciilcr Is (ioml Authority, ' ' Frank' (I. Carpenter, beloved by j everybody who delights to read about what the world is doing, wrote from Alaska during a recent visit there: "I'omhig north from Seattle. 1 saw; my first great gold properties on Douglas Island, just opposite Juneau, j These were the Treadwcll mines, which have been manufacturing gold, as it were, for more than :t.' years ! They have, taken out something; like! :H),0iM).itnu tons of ore and from it! have extracted more than $t;o,0(M, 0i. The gold so far taken out has averaged only $J.-I2 a ton, and that low average ban paid an enormous! profit for years. "Just across the channel are several mountains of itold which some of the great capitalists ere just he- ginning to work.
