German People See the Light.
It is thus made evident that a great
change in Germany's form of govern-
ment, involving the fall of autocraey,
is requisite to peace negotiations, and
that the German people themselves are
becoming convinced of this is shown
by the developments of the week In
thelr struggle for democratization and
parliamentarism. Not since the
began has there been such freedom of
speech and of the press as now exists,
and correspondents report that there
is now a solid political block in the
reichstag in favor of effective guaran-
ties that the imperial government no
longer shall make vital decisions with-
out the full knowledge, advice and con-
sent of the representatives of the peo.

and perhaps Bulgaria and Turkey will
soon declare 'war on the United States,

has made to Italy and other nations
that are ut war with the kailser's al-
Hes. Diplomatic relations, of course,
were severed long ago, and Uncle Sam
ean contemplate with serenity a decla-
ration of war because it will really
serve to free Mm from some embar
rassments in the combating of spy
work and other activities of those
who have been his actual If not
avowed enemies,
