Having appropri- ated Poland, Lithuania, Courland, ILivonia, Esthonia, the Ukraine, Bes- sarabia, the Crimea and a large part of the Caucasusdistrict, Germany wants to levy 0:1` the dismembered bulk of the old Romano empire a war tribute unparalleled in all his- tory. Alongside such rapacity her treatment of France in 1871 seems generous and merciful. as-LAuAvua u.-.-u :.I4\4AI.aAAuI. I Yet German demands on broken and impoverished Russia are not un- natural. For the last forty-seven years the German Government has been dinning in the ears or the Ger- man people the gospel of spoilation. It has taught them to covet the ter- ritory and possessions of all their European neighbors. That is what pan-Germanism means. As many na- tions as possible must be brought under the German yoke, stripped of liberty and the fruits of their labor and converted into hewers of wood and drawers of water under German taskmasters. V1k.~ +nn:.`k:nn- has :~v-Iinlr In "I"'hn I.aSKI1]1].S[8I'S. This teaching has struck in. The industrial classes as well as the mili- tary classes, the universities and the liberal professions, have been inocu- lated with it. The passion for plun- der is now in the German blood 1.. 1.:- :11..m:n.u.`nn 11:.-n `nu TXHL: 0031' IS I10\V III U16 uerIua.u Lnuuu In his illuminating diary Dr. Wil- helm Huhlon refers again and again to the predatory impuises manifest- ing themselves in all strata of Ger- man society. He describes an inti- mate conference of representatives of the steel industry of Rhenish Prus- sia. and Westphalia. "These modern German industx-ia`.s, he says, "are : sickening. 'T'11ov nil :1r*11p fnr :1 whales-*.n.I=. SlCKCl'lII1g." They all argued for a wholesale appropriation both of enemy terri- tory and of enemy private property. The bunder of 1871 must not be re- peated. Said one: This time the indemnity must go as high (in the case of France) at. $12,500,000,000, ` and must be collected, not in clrafts, ` but in merchandise, land and mineral ; properties. No powerful iron and . steel industry must ever be allowed to develop again in France or Be]- gium. 'l`nn.'n rrl nvm-v r-nnmw-red nation Ger- gxum."

"There was nothing in their con- versation or in their thoughts but force, material wealth, new territory to develop, discipline and methods of exploitation. No idea which would justify an extension of German rule, 'no benets to be bestowed on the conquered and no consideration to be shown to them. In short, no mag- nanimity. They want to lie in the beds of other people and don t mind being called barbarians for wanting to do so. They haven't the least am- bition to win over other peoples by moral suasion.

It is on the very ritlge of the fanned I[igl1lz1nds of Ontario. Its altitude above sea level aVeru<.:es 1,700 feet. while some of the lakes in the Park are `_ .,()00 feet above the sea.

Tl1e.pa1'k makes an especially strong appeal to the fisherman and czmoeist. There are more than 1,500 lakes in the park, and the excel- lence of the sport draws anglers from every part of the Dominion and from every State in the Union. Among the special varieties to be caught are the genuine square- tailed brook trout; the gamey black bass of the slmlll-mouthed variety. ranging from half a pound to four pounds, and the black-spotted sal- mon, or its near relative, the grey Luun, v~ nu. --- .- _ trout.
