; The motive main principle center
of gravity or whalever else y6u may
care to call It in modern German
politics is the determination of the
Kaiser and bis crowd to hold their
power. There is nothing novel or
peculiar In this but the fatal dlffer-H
enco for Germany is that no one else j
can start anvfhlng If Kaiserdom Is to I
be trimmed rrom within then WUhelm

enough to talk about modorrt forms of
rovemnittu when the Relchstas "hires
and fires" the Chancellor or when the
Kaiser puts in that job some one who
is the lender of a majority party or
who has a remote shadow ot liking
for popular institutions
That recent scene shifting at Pots-
dam was not as rawly aristocratic as
the one last July when the Crown
Prince and Iidendorff left camp to
drag MIchaeUs into temporary prom
'nence as Chancellor but the essen-
tial method is unchanged. The new
"an Count von Hertllng has his mer-
its but they are merits for the Kai-
ser's purposes He Is an acute politi-
cian aged seventy-five known to his
home dlstrbt as "the old fot." he has
a Utter hatred for Great Eritaltt and
a liking (Or submarine warfare; speaks
freely of ending the war how Ulke La
Fbllette anl HUlqult'h will not "give
up" Alsace-Lorraine; talks of "our
pawn Belgium :' is in rather good
standing at Vienna and at the Vatican;
Irlns to Potsdam the appearance of
South German and Catholic support
for the Kaiser's government: and has
not S- single political Ideal that could
have been called Ueral on and after
July 4. 1"7. He's there to take the
curse of Prussia for the time being If
a succeeds he wilt not last long on
account of his age If he fails his ad-
vanced years will compel retirement
In either case the Kaiser a -ins and
the German people lose Michaolls
Tails through not being useful enough
w von Hertllng is put In to do more
for his hta&tet Some day this rule of
craft and torce will be changed in
Cermany. out the new era will not be
rsralded by any such sitve substitu
