“What now is our best course?” asks Herr Harden in “Die Zukunft.” “It is a clear recognition of realities, a return to tho freedom of dignified criticism, a setting in order of Germany’s house that it may no longer be an abomination in the eyes of the world. Democracy rings us round. _ The responsibility for the peace which will be concluded must be borne not by one I Prince nor by one family, but by the entire nation with unbended neck. Democracy is irresistible, and its help may to-morrow become urgently necessary to Princes. Germany’s people can only conclude this peace when, they have reached a full realisation of the facts, and this they must and will do. The tens of millions of men, Chinese, South Americans, and _ all other i nations, who have proclaimed the German Empire criminal towards international rights, will not go quietly home before, if necessary, the gigantic weight of the United States has sunk down the scale.” The toys one sees in shop windows are frenuentlv manufactured from decayed meat iish and fruit, whilst skiTPmilk is sold for .'-i/.inq paper, ivory and born.
