POINTED OUT
Iff
Last Sunday evening Kev. A. G
Shriver, pastor of the Preshy'erlan
church, spoke on "Autocrary vs lie
' mocracy." The second sermon In th
series, "The Signs of the Times." The
following are excerpts from the nor
mon:
The war has not only leaped over in
ternatlonal boundary lines, but acoans
Once more Janus has closed the gate:
of traffic and Mars has rekindled 111:
fires in Uncle Sam's forge. rVhru
ary 3, 1917, will he a red letter day
In the history of democrary. becujar
upon that day the greatest world (ie
mocracy — United States — Severn'
i her relations with the autocracies cl
| central Europe.
In the same breath In which Cor
I many said she was fighting for thi
! freedom of the seas, she announced
her unrestricted naval policy against
all neutral commerce. The ocean 1m
longs to all nations bordering >n tl
and no single ruler is given power ti
control it. It reminds us of early
Texan days, when a man brandishing
a smoking pistol would inform each
person he was out to hunt and kill
his enemy; If necessary he would fol
low hlcn Into stores, offices, ihop
or homes. The kaiser's method of
dealing with small nations and com
merce of the world is that of the high
wayman raised to the nth power.
The Prussian military party pre
pared and planned for the war.
They all but set the date when hci
army was breaking solemn treaties
right and left. The German chancel
lor said: “By this time our ir/mes
have crossed neutral Luxemburg and
are now In Belgium. Wo c/e com
-iMittino' n wrnnp nealnst P.eltfl'im
which we hope later to repair. ' l h<
kaiser, in addressing his troops, said;
"We must make Ourselves as frlgh'
ful as the Huns." Their base atr >< i
ties and work of devastation tells l ow
well the order was obeyed.
After Germany sunk our lioats, mur
dered our citizen^ and plotted ‘gainst
our government, Germany said we
shall not declare war on the ITni'ml
States. If she declares war she ;n
sumes responsibility if a highway
man knocked you down and klckel
In your ribs, and then said to you, "If
you break with me you must asm me
the responsibility." For protecting her
rigiits, Belgium was trampled under
foot. Who is responsible?
Autocracy Is a form of government
where the supreme governing oo cor
Is plared In one person. He Is not
directly responsible to the peoples'
representatives. The kaiser Is an au
tocrat — God's vice-regent A demo
cracy is a government of the joopl -
by the people and for the people, anil
founded upon pure, lmmut ible prln
elples of morality. This wnr must
ay whether America's or Prussia’s
tandi rd of morality is valid Tbe
kaiser may make or break any p ,]i->
While Prussia covers but two thirds
of Hie area of Germany, comprise 1
five-eighths of her population, yet she
on trots it all. The constitution of
Prussia remains practically unch ingod
in n period of 70 years. The pisanls
ire at the mercy of thetr feu I il lor Is.
Our president cannot make or break
i polii y without consent of congress,
nor cun one state control the republic.
The people control by means of the
ballot.
To win the liberty of the printing
press, political liberty, Industrial lib
erty and freedom from the nuto- .it
It cost our forefathers four hundred
battlefields, and to preserve it l\
hundred battlefields. Will the frigtn
fulness or the audacity of a ; ingle au
tocrat cause us to forsake the prin
ciples for which they died or cheap-m
their cost?
When the dispute arose betwo eu
Serbia and Austria, the nations asked
for aibitration. Germnni hesitated.
Her armies were prepared and readj
to stiike for more mineral territory.
Germany’s ore mines in Usare-Lor
raine would be exhausted In twenty
years, while France's hemat te ore is
good for one hundred years. If Ger
many keeps a huge army and navy
we shall be obliged to do the same
Let a league of democratic nations
be formed to direct and control the
world policies. Shall one m m or the
people direct the world policies?
