A "re sponsible ,croveriiiiient," as the world understands the term, that is, responsible to the people, does not exist in (jcrmanv. The divine rii?ht theorv the tune when surrounding humanity were slaves to the manor, and the man itself a fief of some feudal chief tain when the power, of armed nrifiht, in partnership with the spiritual might of the church, ruled as right. In the progress of humanity, the world has outgrown and discredited this feudal doctrine.' Only in the allied central empires, Germany and Austria and Tur key, does it survive. Only in Ihesc lands does autocracy continue to claim divine sanction for its crimes of op pression, destruction and enslavement. No longer ago than the American revolution, the Ger man pi incclets seized' and sold their subjects as soldiers to foreign powers, and the descendants of the Hessians and others deported as human chattels form a strain in the Americans of today. "Law Notes" quotes a case filed in Missouri in 1836 by a predecessor ol the present reigning "All Highest , .Frederick William IV of Prussia, seeking to recover from the estate of a deceased postmaster a sum with which he absconded to Ar.-.erii-a (King of Prussia vs. Kueppcr's Adnir., 1!2 j1o. ol), in which the royal plaintiff thus de scribes his status: . The plaintiff sliites that lio Is ahsolulo monarch of tlio kingdom of Prussia, and as klnn thereof Is the sole government of that country; that ho is unrest rained by any constitution or law, and that his will, expressed in duo form, is the only law of that country, and is tho only legal power (here known to exist as law. This feudal theory governs not, only the Prussia of to day, but all of Germany as well, and the everyday utter ances of the kaiser prove it for the kaiser, like all the i lohcnxollerns, is a crafty egomaniac, yho regards himself as Germany wil h God as a side pari ner. there is his proc lamation issued after the collapse of his peace proposals last .January: "Conjointly with the allied (central powers) rulers, I proposed to our enemies to enter forthwith. Into peaeo negotiations. Our enemies refused .MY offer. Their hunger for power desires .Germany's destruction. The war will bo continued. Ileforo Clod and humanity, I declare that on the Kovornments of our enemies alono falls the heavy responsibility for all the further torriblo sacrifices from which I wish to save you. ., . . Our en emies did not want tlio understanding our arms will enforce It.' The big I's art! as-thick and speeches as telegraph poles on a railroad oruney. In reply to the Austrian emperor's congratulations upon his birthday, the kaiser said: You majesty's presence here today is a new and sublime proof to nie that . . . your majesty, as well as your army and your people, feel themselves at ono with MIC and MY army and MY people 1n their un shakable purpose to bring tho present war, with tho help of tho Almighty, to a happy and" joyful conclusion for our peoples." , Numerous messages of congratulations always read "I fend MY thanks and those of message upon the, fall of K'iga: I express to you and r)i the Kigbth army MY and the Falbcrlaifd's con gratulations. . . . Onward with (iocl. Always (he M K first, then llie kaiser s trinity. It is because Germany is by an irresponsible monarch over-reaching ambition to rule the world and destroy civ ilization, that President Wilson will consider no' peace or bruco, until the German people take actual control of their own government and provide a responsible govern ment whose word is more 1 nan a scrap ol: paper. The duration of the war depends upon the German people themselves, for as long as they battle to perpetuate feudalism and enslave democracy armed might is the onlv argument- available or understood.

Coraotr I f SAN FRANCISCO.' Sent.' 12.-1- Frnnk C. Oxman was placed on trial In the superior court today on charges of attempted subornation of perjury growing out of the conviction of Thomas J. Mooney for one of.. the bomb murders In the course of a pre paredness day parade July 22,1910. Ten persons were killed. Oxman, an Oregon cattle dealer, was a material witness against Moo ney, whose appeal from sentence .of death is pending in the state supreme court, lie is accused of attempting to Induce F. E. Kigali of Grayvllle, 111,, to give false testimony against Mooney. Oxinau's prosecution is in the hands of deputies of State Attorney-General U. S. Webb, because of the fact that attaches of District Attorney Charles M, Fickert'B office were to be called as witnesses. Fickert ordinarily" would prosecute the case. It was expected that events which led to charges of "frame up" pre ferred by Mooney's counsel against the district attorney's office, and sub sequent 'public controversy relating to OiRnau's credibility, would be laid bare. ' The exiyise of Oxman 's alleged at tempts tosuborn perjury led to con sent for a new trial by Webb.
