Butcon this side of the Atisnticâ€"ihere is not wenting hope that some German minds will be imprest by Mr. Wilsor‘s promisc of evenâ€"handed jusâ€" tice to the German people and his avoidance of "the week language of hatred of vindictive purpese." "Force, force to the utmost, force without stint or limit, the righteous and triumphant force which shall make right the law of the world and cast every selfish dominion down in the dust."
