Like the far-famed "Light Brigade," the Foreign Legion has gone "into the jaws of death, into the mouth of. hell," and today there are but two or the original members left alive. By strange coincidence the two remaining members are Americans. .' They are shown here standing next to the nurse with holding canes and are Edward J. Boulingy and Jack Casey. -

"They tried to Incite Mexico to take up. arms against us and to draw Japan into a hostile alliance with her, and that, not by indirection, but by direct suggestion from the Foreign Office in Berlin. They impudently denied us the use of the high seas and repeatedly executed their threat that they would send to their death any of our people who ventured to approach the coasts of Europe. "And many of our own people were corrupted. Men began to look upon their own neighbors with suspicion

Empire, absorbed and dominated by the same forces and influences that had originally, cemented the German states themselves. The dream had its

heart at Berlin. It could have had a

heart nowhere else! It rejected the idea of solidarity of race entirely.

The choice of peoples played no part in it at all. It contemplated binding together racial and political units which could be kept together only by

force Czechs, Magyars, Croats, Serbs, Roumanians, Turks, Armenians the proud states of Bohemia and Hungary, the stout little commonwealths of the Balkans, the indomitable Turks, the

and surprise whether there was any

community in which hostile intrigue did not lurk. What great nation in such circumstances would net haye taken up arms? Much as we had de- , sired peace, it was denied us, and not of our own choice. This flag under vhich we serve would have been dishonoured had we withheld our hand. "Fighting Their Causa." "But that is only part of the story. We know now a3 clearly as we knew before we were ourselves engaged that we are not the enemies of the German people and that they are not our enemies. They did not originate or desire this hideous war or wish that we should be drawn Into it; and we are vaguely conscious that we are fighting their cause, as they will some day see it, as well as our own. "They are themselves in the grip of the same sinister power that has now at last stretched its ugly talons out and drawn blood from us. The whole world is at war because the whole world is in the grip of that power and is trying out the great battle which nhall determine whether it is to be . brought under Its mastery or fling itself free. "The war was begun by the military masters of Germany, who proved to be also the master of Austro-Hungary. These men have never regarded nations as peoples, men, women and children of like blood and frame as them

selves, for whom governments existed and In whom governments bad their life. They have regarded them merely as serviceable organizations which they could by force or Intrigue bend or corrupt to their own purpose. Smaller States Prey. "They have regarded the smaller states, in particular, and the peoples who could be overwhelmed by force, as their natural tools and instruments of domination. Their purpose has long been avowed. The statemen of other nations, to whom that purpose was Incredible, paid little attention; regarded what German professors expounded in their classrooms and German writers

6et forth to the world as the goal of German policy as rather the dream of

minds detached from practical affairs,

as preposterous private conceptions of

German destiny, than as the actual rlans of responsible rulers; but the rulers of Germany themselves knew all the while what concrete plans, what well advanced intrigues lay back of what the professors and the writers were saying, and were glad to go forward unmolested, filling the thrones of Ealkan states with German princes, putting German officers at the service of Turkey to drill her armies and make Interest with her government, developing plans of sedition and rebellion in India and Egypt, settting their fires in Persia. "The demands made by Austria upon Servia were a mere single step in a : "plan which compassed Europe and

Asia, from Berlin to mgnaaa. ihcy

hoped those demands might not arouse Europe, but they meant to press them whether they did or not, for they ihought themselves ready for the final Issue of arms. "Their plan was to throw a broad -V-ltof German military power and ' ilitical control across the very center of Europe and beyond the Mediterranean Into the heart of Asia; and Austria-Hungary was to be as much their tool and pawn as Servia or Bulgaria or Turkey or the ponderous states of the . East ' ' . . Austria, to Become Part. "Austria-Hungary, Indeed, was to become pa of the central German

They ardently desired to direct their own affairs, would be satisfied only by

undisputed independence,., "They could -be-kept. gulet onjy by the presence or the constant threat of armed men. -They would live under a common power only by sheer compudsion and await the day of revolu

tion. But the German military statesmen had recokoned with all that and were ready to deal with it In their own way. . "And they have actually carried the greater part of that amazing plan into execution! Look how things stand. Austria is at their mercy. It has acted, not upon its own initiative or upon the choice of its own people, but at Berlin's dictation ever since the war began. Its people now desire

peace, but cannot have it until leave is

granted from Berlin. But a Single Power.

"The so-called Central Powers are in fact but a single Power. Servia is at

its mercy, should its hands'be but -for

a moment freed. Bulgaria has con

sented to its will, and Roumania is

overrun. The Turkish armies, which

Germans trained, are serving Germany, certainly not themselves, and the guns

of German warships lying in the har

bor at Constantinople remind Turkish

statesmen every day that they have no choice but to take their orders from

Berlin. -From Hamburg to the Persian

Gulf the net is spread. "Is it not easy to understand the eagerness for peace that has been manifested from Berlin ever since the snare was set and sprung? Peace, peace, peace has been the talk of her Foreign Office for now a year and more; not peace upon her own initiative, but upon the initiative of the nations over which she now deems herself to hold the advantage. A little of the talk has been public, but most of it has been private. Through all sorts of channels it has come to me, and in all sorts of guises, but never with the terms disclosed which the German government would be willing to accept. "That government has other valuable pawns in its hands besides those I

have mentioned. It still holds a valuable part of France, though with slowly relaxing grasp, and practically the whole of Belgium. Its armies press close upon Russia and overrun Poland at their will. It cannot go further; it dare not go back. It washes I

to close its bargain before it is too late and it has little left to offer for the pound of flesh It will demand. "Deep Fear Enters Hearts." "The military masters under whom Germany is bleeding see very clearly to what point Fate has brought them. If they fall back or are forced back an Inch, their power both abroad and at home will fall to pieces like a house of cards. It is their power at home they are thinking about now more than their power abroad. It is that power which is trembling under their very feet; and deep fear has entered

their hearts. They have but one chance to perpetuate their military power or even their controlling political influence. - i

"If they can secure peace now with the immense advantages still in their hands which they have up to this point apparently gained, they will have justified themselves before the German people; they will have gained by force what they promised to gain by it; an immense expansion of German power, an immense enlargement of German Industrial and commercial opportunities. Their prestige will be secure, and with their prestige their political power. It they fail, their peo

ple will threat them aside; a government accountable to the people themselves will be set up in Germany as it has been. In England, In the United States, in France, and In all the great countries of the modern time except Germany. . :ii'-h "It they succeed they are safe and Germany and the world are undone; if they fail Germany is saved and the world will be at peace. If they succeed, America, will fall within the menace. We and all . the rest of the world must remain armed, as they will remain, and must make ready tor the next step In their aggression; if they fail, the world may unite for peace and Germany may be of the union. "intrigue for Peace." "Do you not now understand the new intrigue, the intrigue for peace, and why the masters of Germany do not hesitate to use any agency that promises to effect their purpose, the deceit of the nations? , Their present particular aim Is to deceive all those who throughout the world stand for the rights of peoples and the self-government of nations; for they see what immense strength the forces of justice and of liberalism are gathering out of this war. - "They are s employing liberals . in their enterprise. They are using men, in Germany and without, as their spokesmen whom they .have hitherto despised and oppressed, using them for their own destruction, socialists, the leaders of labour, the thinkers they have hitherto sought to silence. Let them once succeed and these men, now their tools, will be ground to powder beneath the weight ot the great military empire they will have set up; the revolutionists in Russia will be cut off from all succour or cooperation in western Europe and a counter revolution fostered and supported; Germany herself will lose her chance of freedom; and all Europe will arm for the next, the final struggle. The sinister intrigue is being no less actively conducted in this country in Europe to which the agents and dupes of the Imperial German government can get access. That government has many spokesmen here, in

places high and low. They have learned discretion. They keep within the law. Opinion Not Sedition. "It is opinion they utter now, not sedition. They proclaim the liberal purposes of their masters; declare this a foreign war which can touch America with no danger to either her lands or her institutions; set England at the centre of the stage and talk of her ambition to assert economic dominion throughout the world; appeal to our ancient tradition of isolation

in the politics of the nations; and seek to undermine the government with false professions of loyalty to its principles. "But they will make no headway. The false betray themselves always in every accent. It is only friends and partisans of the German government whom we have already identified who utter these thinly disguised disloyalties. v "The facts are patent to all the world, and nowhere are they more plainly seen than in the United States,

where we are accustomed to deal with facts and not . with sophistries; and the great fact that stands out above all the rest is that this is a People' War, a war for freedom . and Jusice and self-government "amongst all the nations of the world, a war to make the world safe for the peoples who live upon it and have, made it their own, the German people themselves included;. and that with us rests the choice to break through all these hypocrisies and patent cheats and masks of brute force and help set the world free, or else stand aside and let it be dominated a long age through by sheer weight Of arms and the arbitrary choices of self-constituted masters, by the nation which can maintain the biggest armies and the most irresistible armaments, a power to which the world has afforded no parallel and in the face of which political freedom must wither and perish. "For us there is but one choice. We have made it Woe be to the man or group of men that seeks to stand in cur way in this day of high resolution when every principle we hold dearest is to be vindicated and made secure for the salvation of the nations. We are ready to plead at the bar of history, and our flag shall wear a new lustre. Once more we shall make good with our lives- and fortunes the great faith to which we were born, and a new glory shall shine in the face of our people."
