By this new Magna Charta of I^oyalty, the people of the tries now at war must swear: first not to discuss, meddle or interfere in any way with the politics of the present war; sedly, absolutely to accept, submit to and abide by whatever terms of peace their actual rulers may decide upon among themselves. This new Magna Charta of Loyalty, will at once give the actual rulers of the tries now at ower and, with power, ce to make peace; in fact, power and ce at oo order and and peace. I am perfectly sure that as soon as this power is givehe actual rulers of the tries now at war, will at once order and and peace. I say, I am perfectly sure of this, because the rulers of the tries now at war, uhey are absolute incurable lunatics or demons, which everybody must admit that they are not, _no, not even, I will veo say here, the most slandered man now in Europe, the Emperor of Germany, _they, the rulers of the tries now at war, must see that for them together to tio spend nine million pounds sterling of the blood and sweat-earned money of their people everyday in order to slaughter the lives of thousands of i men and to destroy the homes and happiness of thousands of i women, is really nothing but infernal madness. The reason why the rulers, soldiers and diplomats of the tries now at war ot see this, is because they feel themselves helpless; helpless before the panic of the mob, _the panic of the crowd of plain men and women; in fact, as I said because the panic of the crowd, _the panic of the mob has seized and paralysed their brains. I say therefore the first thing to be done, if the present actual situation now in Europe is to be saved, is to rescue the rulers, soldiers and diplomats of the tries now at war from the panic of the mob, _the panic of the crowd of plain men and women by giving them power.
The tragic hopelessness of the situation now in Europe, I want to say here further, lies not only in the helplessness of the rulers, soldiers and diplomats, but also in the helplessness of everybody in the tries now at war. Everybody is helpless and ot see that this war, wanted by nobody and brought on only by the panic of the mob, is an infernal madness, because, as I said, the panic of the mob has seized and paralysed the brains of everybody. One see this even in Professor Dison, who writes to inveigh against the war,_to denouhe rulers, soldiers and diplomats fing on this rofessor Dison too, without being scious of it, has the panic of the mob in his brain. He begins his article by stating that this article of his is not a "stop the aper. He goes on to say:
"Being in the war, I think, as all Englishmen think, we must go on fighting until we emerge from it with our terroritory and security intad with the future peace of Europe assured as far as human wisdom assure it. " The iy and security of the British Empire and the future peace of Europe to be obtained only by going on indefinitely spending nine million pounds sterling of good money and slaughtering thousands of i men everyday! The monstrous absurdity of such a proposition, I believe, has only to be stated, to be seen by any one who has not the panic of the mob in his brain. The peace of Europe! Why, I think if this rate of spending and slaughtering goes on for ah of time, there will certainly be peace, but no Europe left on the map of the world. Indeed if there is anything which will show how really and utterly unfit the plain men and womeo decide on the question of pead wa
