Show WHEN THEY CALL FOR THE KAISER. Holland is growing nervous over tho presence of the kaiser and the crown ; prince on tho soil of Tho Netherlands, and tho authorities are inquiring whether they arc not possessed of a whito elephant. Holland for a time was looked on as pro-German, but that may have been due to the attitude of royalty. So to-, day the people of tho Dutch nation I are uneasy over the possibility that they may be further misunderstood by their country being selected as the j place of refuge of the most hated man , of history. j The Standard is looking forward to tho day when tho allies will demand possession of the former emperor and his son Frederick, and, when they do, the people of Holland -will hand the , two men over with great haste. ! Tile purpose of the allies In reach-ing reach-ing out for tho kaiser is to make an j example 'Of him. William Hohonzol-lern Hohonzol-lern will be tried before an interna- tional or British court, found guilty I and sentenced. He and tho crown .' prince will be executed or exiled. We j would prefer to have them placed on an island as was Napoleon at St. Hc-ilena Hc-ilena and there allowed to live in con-itcmplatlon con-itcmplatlon of the deaths they caused ' land the misery and desolation they ! brought upon the world. Their punlsh-Jment punlsh-Jment should be such as to be a warning warn-ing to o,ther ambitious rulers who might plan to disturb the peace of the other nations in obedience to a desire to rule or ruin. Punishment of the German military group will not stop when tho kaiser Is disposed of. Other criminals will bo dragged before the tribunal and sentenced, sen-tenced, because all civilization insists I that an example be made of tho fiends who burned and murdered, who out-' out-' raged and crushed.
