Satan Abdicates in Favor of His Master -- T- The Kaise r This is an Allegorical Satire Aimed to Arouse All Red Blooded A mericans Against Hohehzollern Debauchery and Crime.' work, but it takes a Hohenzollern to make away and get. by. , . Your ppportunity, was at hand; you set the world on fire and bells of hell were ringing; your rape on (Belgium caused much joy. It was the begin-ning, the foundation of a perfect hell on earth; the destruction of iibble cathedrals and other infinite works of art was hailed with joy in the infernal regions. , You made war on friends and foe alike, and the murder ' of civilians showed my teachings had borne fruit. (Republished by Request) When Louis Syberkrop of Creston, Iowa, wrote the satire on Kaiser Wil-hel- m which follows, he little, thought It would attract the attention which It has. Bequests for copies have come to him from Theodore Roosevelt, Sec-- " retary to the President Tumulty and other notables,.' The article is in the form of a letter from his iSatanic Ma-jesty to his human prototype. It says: To Wilhelm von Hohenzollern, King of Prussia, Emperr.r of all Germany and Envoy (Extraordinary of Al-mighty God. My Dear Wllhclm: I can tell you by that familiar name, for I have al-ways been very close to you much closer than you have ever known. From the time that you were yet an undeveloped being in your mother's womb have I shaped your deBtiny for my purpose. In the days of Rome I created a roughneck known in history as Nero. He was a vulgar character and suited my purpose at that particular time. In thefe modern days a classic demon onii nfflp.iunt. aimer-crimin- was need- - Your treachery toward neutral na-tions hastened a . universal upheaval, the thing 1 mose desired. Your under-sea warfare is a master stroke, from the smallest mackerel pot Jto the great Lusitania you show no favorites; as a war lord you stand supreme, for you have no mercy; you have no consider-ation for the baby clinging to its mother's breasts as they both go down Into the deep together, only to be torn apart and leisurely devoured by sharks down among the coralB. I have strolled over the battlefields of Belgium and France. I have seen your hand of destruction everywhere; it's all your work; super-fien- d that 1 made you. I have seen the fields of ed, and as 1 know the Hohenzollern Poland; now a wilderness fit ; for blood I picked you as my special in-strument to place on earth an annex of hell. I gave you abnormal ambi-tion, likewise an over-suppl- y of egot-ism that you might not discover your own fallings; I twisted your mind to that of a madman with certain normal tendencies to carry you by, a most dangerous character placed in power; I gave you the power of a hypnotist and a certain magnetic force that you might sway your people. I am re-sponsible for the deformed arm that hangs helpless on your left, for your crippled condition embitters your life and destroys all noble impulses that might otherwise cause me anxiety, but youi Jtrong sword is driven by your amfiftion that squelches all sen-timent and pity; I have placed in your oul a deep hatred for all things Eng-lish, for all nations on earth I hate England most; wherever 'England plants her flag she brings order out of chaos and the hated cross follows the Union Jack; under her rules wild tribes become tillers of the soil and In due time practical citizens; she is the great civlllzer of the globe and I hate her. I planted in your soul a cruel hatred for your mother because she was (English and left my good i friend Bismark to fan the flame I had kindled. Recent history proves how well our work was done. It broke your prowling beasts only; no merry chil-dren in Poland now; they all suc-cumbed to frost and starvation I drifted down into Galicia where for-merly Jews and Gentiles lived hap-pily together; 1 found but ruins and ashes; 1 felt a curious pride in my pupil, for it was all above my expecta-tion. I was in (Belgium when you drove the peaceful population before you like cattle into slavery; you separated man and wife and forced them to hard labor In trenches. I have seen the most fiendish rape committed on young women and those who were forced into maternity were cursing the father of their offspring and I be-gan to doubt if my own inferno was really up to date. t You have taken millions of dollars from Innocent victims and called , it Indemnity you have lived fat on the land you usurped and sent the real owners away to starvation. You have strayed away from all .legllazed war methods and introduced a code of your own. You have killed and robbod the people of friendly nations and de-stroyed their property. You are a liar, a hypocrite and a bluffer of the high-est magnitude. You are a part ot mine and yet you pose as a personal friend of God: Ah, Wilhelm, you are a wond-er. You wantonly destroy all things tn your path and leave nothing for royal mother's heart, but I gained my coming generations. purpose. The Inherited disease of the Hohen-eollern- s killed your father Just as It will kill you, and you became the rul-er of Germany and a tool of mine sooner than I expected. To assist you and farther hasten my work, I sent you three evil spirits iNietzsche, Tritschk and later Bern-har-whose teachings inflamed the youthB of Germany, who in good time would be winning and loyal subjects and eager to spill their blood and pull your chestnuts, yours and mine; the speil has been perfect you cast your ambitious yese toward the Mediter-ranean, Egypt, India and the Darda-nelles, and you began your great rail-way to (Bagdad, but the ambitious wife stood in your way. It was then that I sowed the seed in your hen that blossomed into the assar.nination of the duke and his wife, and all hell smiled when it saw how cleverly you saddled the crime on Serbia. I saw you set sails tor the fjords of Norway, and 1 knew you would prove an alibi. How cleverly dont, so much like your noble grandfather, who also secured an assassin to remove old King Frede-rick of Denmark and later robbed that country of two provinces that gave Germany an opportunity to be-come a naval power. Murder is dirty I was amazed when I saw you form a partnership with the impossible Turk, the chronic killer of Christians, and ycu a devout worshipper In the Lutheran church. 1 confess, Wilhelm, you are a puzzle at times. A Moham--' medan army, commanded by German officers, assisting one another in mas-sacring Christians is a new line of warfare. When a Prussian officer can witness a nude woman being disem-boweled by a swarthy Turk commit-ting a double murder with one cut of his saber and calmly stand by and see a house full of Innocent Americans locked up, the house saturated with oil and fired, then my teachings did not stop with you', but have been ex-- tended to the whole German nation. I confess my Satanic soul grew sick and there and then I knew my pupil had become the master. I am a buck i number, and, my dear Wilhelm, I abdi- - cate in your favor. The great Joy of hell will be turned over to you. The ' gavel that has struck the doom of damned souls since time began Is ' yours. I am satisfied with what 1 have done; that my abdiction In your i favor is for the very best interests of hell In the future I am at your ma jesty's service. Affectionately and sincerely, tLucifer 11. Satan. WANT ADS MINING LOCATION NOTICES for salt at the Press-Bulleti- n office.
