OUT OF THE MISTS
"If the ingatherers of war profits like to bolt and bar their skulls still longer," says Herr Harden, " and proclaim, by the mouths of their hirelings, schoolmasters,, clerks, association secretaries, that these days, exceeding everything known for horror, are a glorious time, well, their dirty interests are not those of the German people. Out of the mists into daylight—is the cry of that people's heart. It ,has ceased to imagine that all AVestern Europe, that its broad Eastern margin, is inhabited by none but rogues, vagabonds, footpads. It does not desire to stamp the genius of other peoples violently 'with its own image, nor does it trumpet forth its own genius as the panacea by which the world—yea, though it choose rather to die—must be healed."
