SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1914, No. 11 The hundredth day of the great war has passed, and the Allies, both in the western and eastern theaters of action, continue to gain |: ground. There has never been a war in which the world was kept 80 fully informed of the progress of events, although many people show a disposition to object to what they consider a paucity of news, The war offices of the Allies issue daily reports which, though terse and brief, give the essential facts without color or prejudice, In Western Flanders, where the British army is fighting, the great battle which has been in progress for a -month is still un- decided. Movements of German troops and guns seem to indicate that a supreme effort is to be made to obey the Kaiser’s command to reach the coast, and we may soon learn of a struggle which will dwarf even the most sanguinary conflicts of the last three months. Tne British and their allies have demonstrated, however, that, in aiything like equal numbers, they can hold their own with the best of the German troops, and we need have no fear of the out- At the same time, it is rather difficult. to imagine what advantage, worthy of the great sacrifice involved, can be gained come, by the Germans, even though they succeed in reaching the coast. The uninformed layman is apt to conclude that German strategy is on a par with German diplomacy and German “philosophy”’. The latter quality is voiced by Adolph Lassen, professor. of philosophy at Berlin University, who says, in a letter to a Dutch correspondent: “For months I have not written to a single foreigner; foreigner Means enemy until the contrary has heen proved. No one can remain neutral to the German State and people. Either you|{ consider it the most perfect creation that history has Produced up to now or you acquiesce in its destruction; nay, in its oxterming- tion.” : ; . , He then goes on to assure his correspondent inat the Germans are “morally and intellectually superior’ to the rest of mankind, |} . and he proceeds to remark that the Kaiser is “the light of the human race.’ - "God be praised the Dutch are not our friends, We live in the free breath of history, and have nothing in common with thig|. miserably bourgecis sentiment of theirs. friends anywhere, because we are efficient and morally superior to We Germans -have no all, Those who eannot attain our moral strength are. afraid of us and think us dangeraus. for we obey, and our law is reason.”’ Peter Osiniak .
