WHILE tlic (htiiijuis arc -laimriiifi for jicui't' it well to rciiicuilvr that wv arc finlitin Id destroy ''kultur'' rather than (Jennany, and that kultur is the lielief that niitcht is rifi'lit, combined with the feudal doc trine of the divinity of kiiitfs, the sanctity of the state, and the myth of the (icrinaii superman. For two gener ations the (icrinaii people have been taught kultur in place of Christianity by their rulers until the entire na tion became permeated with barbarism.' "Kultur'' is best defined in the words f the Herman philosophers and teachers, which are now repeated to re fresh voiir nieniorv. Tricfschke said in teaching German superiority: "The (lerinau is a hero horn, and believes he can hack and hew ii is way liirougn nic, aiidMctzeiie added: "Deep in the nature of all these noble races there lurks uninistalvf ably the beast of prey, the blonde beast, lustfully roving in search of booty and victory," and Tannenburg remark ed "the (icrmaii people is always right because it is the (icrinaii people and numbers cightv-scvon million souls.'' ul laving convinced the German that he is a superman because ot the ' blonde beast within hun, the tallacv that might is right, was instilled in him, JJernliardi taught: ".Might is the supyme right, and the dispute as to wlisit is riglit is decided bv tlie arbitrament ot war, and Stirrier declared: "What does right matter to me? I have no need of it, I' have the right to do what 1 have the power to do, aiul- Lasson asserted: "Let him who has the power and feels himself prepared cut the knot with the sword. For great historical questions this is the only rational and permanent solution." The "blonde beast" would not a beast without the law of the jungle, so ("rightfulness was inculcated as fol lows: "ar must leave nothing to the vanquished but tlieir eyes to weep with; modesty on our part would Ik only madness,' said Janneberg. "It makes for health that the nobler race should absorb the inferior stock declared inetsciiKe. "j.et us liravelv organize great forced migrat ions of the inferior peoples we must coerce them. This is one of the tasks of war," taught Wag ner, wlnle mi llartinan remarked: "Terrorism is seen to be a relatively gentle procedure useful to keep in a state of obedience the masses of tKe people." General n del Goltz thus summarized: "It is better to let a hundred women and children belonging to the enemy die id' hunger than to let a single German soldier suffer." Murder, rapine, theft and falsehood were all included in the German curriculum as justifiable. Horrible crimes and cruelties, deportation and enslavement of peoples were inculcated as part of the "blonde beast's" heritage. Xeitzsche declared: "Hatred, delight in mischief, rapac ity," ambition and whatever else is caiied evil, belong to the marvelous economy of t he conservation of the race!" ar was declared "the eternal order instituted by God" and its devotees became war-crazed until defeat threatened to bring to Germany what Germany had in flicted on the world. Xow the "love of war and' the crav ing for battle" as a German trait, is rapidly evaporating. Such a philosophy of life that made man a glorified beast, was not complete witJiout a god-head and so we have the kaiser and his shining armor, prince of woe and death the mighty monarch who grandiloquently declared: The spirit or the Lord has dosieiulcd upon me because I-nm emperor of the Hermann. I ntn tho Instrument "of the Almighty. 1 urn Ills sword, Ills ui:ont. Woo unit death to till those who shall oppose my will! Woo and death to those who do not believe In my mission! Woe and death to the cowards. Let them perish, all enemlis of the German people, (iod demands their destruction! Cod, ho by my mouth bids you do His will. Ami that is why President "Wilson has informed the German people that the United States will not consider peace with the military masters and inonaivhial autocrats ruling Germany, why it is up to Germans to repudiate kultur or be crushed by the armed might of civilization.

Sabotage Is the favorite weapon of the Rus sian, lie uses It more effectively than the rijle and understands it better. It was sabot atio which overthrew Emperor Nicholas. In neither case was there an extensive military char acter to the movement which gave Russia a new government." And now the weapon which the Bolehevikl and their supporters of iho extreme left used on previous governments has been turned ucainst them. In the food situation, on the railways, In various government bur eaus. In public service organizations of all sorts, among bankers, business and professional men, and . even among peasants the government en counters hindrance and obstruction of a type which camicrt he punished and stamped out. Commissar Tsurupa, who Is "in charge of the national food supply, recently stated in a speech that 1500 persons in his department alone had retained positions for months and pretended to work, when they were in reality doing all they could to hin der the food administration. Trotzky, Lenine and other Bolshe vik speakers and agitators have made the most of' the sabotage directed against them by loudly proclaiming in all sections of Russia that the dis order they inherited from the Ker ensky regime and the opposition dir ected against thein by enemies wltii in the government, as well as out side, has prevented the soviet repub lic from bettering the food situation, and getting commerce and industry back into normal cnannels. This view was accepted by the la boring masses very generally ' for some time, but after months of the Bolshevik republic it is apparent that the laboring men are no longer will ing to accept abuse of various anti iiolshevik factions as a complete ex cuse for the deplorable lack of food. Tho loss of the Ukraine grain sup ply and the cutting off ot the Siber ian wheat stores by the Czecho-SIo-vaks stand forth st plainly that the dullest workman reads tho handwrit ing on the wall. Without gralnfields he understands there cannot be grain. And the promises of bread thru graincrusades made by armed Torres do not impress him when he realizes that the portion of Russia re maining within the jurisdiction of tho soviet republic does not contain enough grain to feed the republic's population, even If every bushel were under government control and care fully distributed.

Reports from all parts of the county indidfte that the epidemic of Spanish influenza has rea-ched its crest anfliis receding. At Dunsmulr there is a marked improvement In the situation. Not only aro the new cases diminishing In number but In virulence. The Red Cross now has the situation well in hand thru co operative organization. Physicians and nurses have been very much overworked, but at last reports the tense atmosphere has relaxed and an easier feeling prevails, says the Sis kiyou i.Vews. At Weed and McCloud it is believ ed the epidemic Is at its crest. Schools, churches, lodges and public places of amusement have been clos ed and all precautionary measures taken. Three hundred cases have been reported at McCloud and about the same number a Weed. Practic ally the entire office force of the Weed Lumber company is laid un and 104 employes of the sash and door factories are off duty. All de partments of the mill are operating, however, tho decidedly shorthanded. iAt McCloud the Red Cross build ing and theater have been equipped for hospitul service. In Yreka influenza is prevalent but in a mild form. The-total num ber of cases to date is not above 30, and no new cases have been reported within the last 24 hours. This is on the authority of .Mrs. Mtfyer, recent ly .appointed community nurse, who is working in cooperation with the county heatlh officer and Red Cross in checking the epidemic. Gauze masks, which are recommended by the state board of health as being very effective in warding off the dis ease, reducing the liability of con tracting it 90 percent, are worn by many. The effectiveness of the mask, however, does not lie In frightening the germs to death as a certain su perstitious resident who believes first met a masked figure well along toward the hour "when graveyards yawn and hell itself breathes out con tagion to this world." NORM PRO-ENGLISH LOXDON Oct. 26 In Sweden one is disagreeably struck by the number of people who speak German. When aked a question in English, a Swede, be he a policeman or a civilian. In variably countered lu German. At h off els and restaurants few porters ami waiters understand or speak English. In bookshops Kngltsl books and magazines are few, while Ger man are largely represented. It is different in Norway. English Is taught at school, and nearly every body one meets, from the porter at the station to one's neighbor at the dinner table, speaks English fluent ly. The windows in the bookshops are full of English and American publications. The treatment of English-speaking visitors had more of hearty hospital ity and kindliness In Norway than in Sweden. JOHN A.
