THE WORLD stands today watching one of the most heroic sights ever
presented on this mundane sphere. All the world today, if not a stage, is
a theater in which a universal audience
A SIGHT FOR THE GODS stands around while the greatest tragedy
of all times is being enacted before it.
The greatest powers that the earth has ever seen have hurled their titanic
strength against each other with a fury that might be called Olympian and
Slav anti Teuton ami Latin and. maybe, Anglo Saxon, Celt and Mohamcdan
are in the throes of the final struggle for the mastery'.
Now that the races have been pitted against each other all the rest of
the world should stand by like good sports and give them a clear field. Among
the population of this country and of this territory arc men of all the races
involved in the supreme test. We should all be careful when speaking of the
war not to say something which might touch someone else in tender spots.
Men who have left the.r old fatherlands still keep the memory of their homes
and their people sacred and to them the name of their country is something
to be saved from slight. In a time when a man’s homeland is passing
through an ordeal of blood and destruction his soul becomes more than usu
ally susceptible to every remark and this should always be kept present to
our memories even w hen w e are not personally interested.
It is truly a great calamity. The result is too awful for calm contem
plation. Some of the nations w hich are now entering the combat to the music
f bands, the cheers of patriots and the heroic flying of banners will emerge
b' ceding and broken w ith homes desolated and pride humbled.
Even when newspapers tell the news from day to day there will be some
who cannot credit the relation of the story of their country’s defeat. It will
b- sad new -, indeed, but this paper will only tell the tale as it receives it.
T e people of every nation engaged in the war deserve equal consideration
n * the news agencies will, no doubt, give it.
