Gerards Famous Reply. "When diplomatic relations1 were finally broken off between Amerca and Germany; when this same ambassador was made a prisoner of Germany, an unheard-of proceeding among civilised nations; when he was cut off from cable, from wireless and from mall communication with his own government; when he was notified that he was being held aof as hostage for the safety treachery oua Ton Bernstorf and for ths safe return of certain German merchant ship to German ports, then he'd in American ports; when a draft of a proposed treaty between the United States and the German imperial government was laid before him wherein these demands were to be acceded to; and. finally, when he was told to sign for America, again, quietly, without noise or bluster,, but plainly and courageously, tils answer was; Prisoners under duress cannot make , valid contracts. Ambassadors whtrTvavs been recalled by their governments have no authority to sign treaties. But even if, as a prisoner,' I would enter into valid contracts for my government; and even If my power as ambassador had not already ended, I would stay as a prisoner in Berlin until Hades la covered with ice before I would sign tltat, or any other similar instrument, with your, government.

But all the prewar achievements of Democracy are forgotten in the bitterness of th struggle over the terms of tho treaty of peace, and In th aftermath of problems that have followed In th wek of th war. "The president would be our logical leader in the coming campaign because he has laid down th line of battle aiong which w must fight. But sine another must head th hosts of Democracy, Nebraska offers as a substitute the man who has stood like a stone wail behind th president throughout the long struggle for the ratification of th treaty of peace.
