THE REVIEW: REIDSVILLE, N. 0. FRIDAY, MARCH 19, 1915 Germans bad also lost many, Bismarck said: 'Six times as ,muny as In 180G, But do you believe, sir, and does the French army believe that it was I who wanted war?' Taking off his helmet, he went on: 'Look nt nie. I nm threat ened with an apoplectic stroke and was quietly going through a cure and never thought I should have, to Interrupt and i change it lor the lite or the camp.' PAGE TWO. Will CELEBRATE DUE HUNDREDTH BIBTIiy DF PBffiE BISMCK i Coincidence That Empire, on t Centenary, Should Ee Fight ing to perpetuate His Principles. ON April 1 will fall the hundredth anniversary of the birlh of Otto vou Bismarck - Ncliociihannen, I'rlii'.e iiikI Luke of Laueuburg, and OiTiuau moieties aud clubs all over the United Slates are preparing to velebrate tte event. It is a striking in fitauee of tbe loimideuces of history Itnt fUe Germ-uy which BiHiiiurck united in a great empire should oil tbe fciitenaryof his blrtb be lighting for the perpetuation of tbe principles of Foveruraent' which he held. That (iermany's international situa tion bus changed but little during tbe last )iinrter of a century becomes evi dent when we ghiute back at Prince Itf.suiarck'8 address to the rclclmtcg. on Feb. 0. 1S88 perhaps the most fa mous he ever delivered before that tiody In which be proposed and de fended an Increase In the military armament of the German empire. Iu that address Bismarck said: "Tbe very strength which we are seeking to acquire through u legitimate preparation for ' the eventualities of Var necessarily contributes to making us a peaceful people.. That sounds par adoxical, and yet It is true. Tbe mili-x tary machine which we are seeking to develop is too jwwerful, too mighty a Weaxn to be heedlessly employed iu a war of aggression. 'If we In Germany are to wage a successful war, a war in which we develop tbe full power of our nationa! strength, it must be a war to which every one who participates and every one who makes sacrifices for it brings tbe conviction that It was unavoidable. It must be a war of tbe people, a war wbicb cun be carried ou with the same unanimous enthusiasm that '-brought the war of 1870 to a successful issue. "We cannot forego this advantage, even though it be assumed by many competent military observers, foreign as well as German, that we are su perior to our opponents. Assuredly jt la not tbe fear of the results of a war mm tins persuuueu us to Keep tne peace. On tbe contrary, it is the con ac'iousness of our strength, the con clousnesH that, even though we may be attacked at an unfavorable time we will be strong enough to fight bac and that we may well trust Providence to continue the blessings of, peace. Not Easily Frightened. "We Germans are easily bribed, per baps too easily, by friendship and good will, but we are certainly not access! Die to the influence of threats. We Germans fear God, but naught else in tbe world, and It is our fear of God that teaches us to revere and conserve the peace. But whoever breaks that In Great Speech to Reichstag Famous German Statesman Defended Increased tary Armament. Russia its western, upon which it can be attacked. Moreover, we are more menaced by the danger of a hostile condition, a danger arising from his torical developments, our geographical position and our lack of historic unity, than any other people. God has placed us In a situation in whkh our neigh bors, prevent us from fulling into any state of lassitude or desuetude. lie has placed alongside of us tbe most warlike and volatile nation, the French, j and in Itussin there have been develop- ed warlike proclivities uukuowu to pre-! vlous centuries. Thus we are being j spurred on from two sides and are forced to undertake exertions which i would certainly not nrlse from any spontaneous initiative. It Is the pricks Alv.ay3 'Ready Vac X7uX. "Just then the chaplain of the uiubiv lance, the Able l!!ar I, came up and asked, 'But, .M. le r.iinte, If you did not want war what was the meaning of the Ilolicir.ollcrii candidature?' to which Bismarck replied textually: Tpon my word! Did anybody really swallow that? M. de Granimout is too retiiKHl u gentleman and too good a sportsman to be a good politician. That was invented to force on war. We were challenged, not to retreat any fur ther. Already, four years ago, we had shown great patience in tbe Luxem burg affair, and you were less ready then than you are today. You only forget one thing, and that is that we are always ready for war, and that If we are forced to fight we carry on war in the severest sense. You have had' proof of this.' And with a gesture of satisfaction he haughtily and coldly pointed to the battlefield, which hafl called forth his deep emotion, "Here truth compels me to say," pro ceeds Dr. Czernickl, "that nothing can 4 .Tv f ; 'V'., kw JJ '' . - y ( rillNCB VON BISMAltCK. , feace can rest assured that the patri otic fighting spirit which called the en tire people Of weak, worn out Prussia to the c olors in 1S13 is today the com mon property of the entire German na tion. Whoever attacks the German nation will find it united and unani mous In the face of danger aud will find every man in . the ranks stepping forward firm In the belief that Provi dence Is with him. There Is today no occasion, no ex use which would Justify tbe Irruption of one European power upon another's territory. 1 will go so far as to say that If, as tbe result of some untoward explosion, we should become Involved in a war with France, a war with Rus sia would not inevitably follow, where as If we should become Involved In a war with Russia a war with France wonld be absolutely certain. No French administration would be strong enough to stop It even If It wanted to. -When 1 say that we must strive per manently to be prepared for all eventu alities 1 mean to Indicate that we must jnnke creflter effort than any other jower by reason of our unhappy geo graphical position. We are situated In the very center of Europe. We nava t iw. three frontiers epen to attack, k.'rnct fcsi. only lta eastern frontier. BUY YOUR SUPPLIES FROM THE UNION SUPPLY HOUSE x '' .

They force us to jireserve a unity among ourselves that Is at variance with tho separatist tendencies of our Inner, natures. But since Providence has placed us in this position It is es sential that we make ourselves safe against attack." Reminiscence of Bismarck. A Freucb army surgeon named CzernU'kl in a '' Bupplement to the Gaulols gives a very iutercstJng and pleasing reminiscence of Bismarck, placing the Iron Chancellor in . nil un accustomed light, Dr. Czerniikl had been left In iharge of an ambulance at Uezonvllle before the siege of Mets. and when Banalne ordered the retreat of the Second corps d armee into Meti on the night of August ItM7 the am bulance, with some (100 wounded, was left behind and found itself within the Prussian lines. On the 'morning of the litli Dr. t'ssernlcki was accosted by an oflleer. w ho Informed him that the king of Prussia, with his suit, was In Ileron vllle and that be would Introduce him to Count Bismarck. The rt may be told In bis own words: "There on a stone bench, close to tbe door of a rustic cottage, at 7 in the morning' was seated alone the cele brated Prussian minister at breakfast. He had spread a sheet of pajcr on his knees, upou which lay cold meat, sau sages and bread. Beside him ou tbe beucb was a bottle, from which he was drinking. When be saw us be left off eating and, rising to his full height. laluted with a kindly laugh. Tbe fol- j lowing conversation, which I wrote out tbe same evening In roy notebook, then took place In French : " 'You are taking part, sir. In a terrl-, ble war for a start In your careerV be said. 'What a sight, what suffering! It la not yon or these poor mutilated fellows that I should like to see here, but your senators and deputies. They would see what war Is! Look at It! flare row mmy wounded? ( ! reply to my question whether the j describe the solicitude and interest shown by the minister of war, without exception, to all. To each one he ad ! dressed some intimate and personal re mark. Battlefield Incident. "Out of this long visit to the battle- : field I will only tell one episode, which j places Bismarck in a new light. Seat j ed on some straw and propped up ! agalust a pillar of the church of Rezon j vllle was one of our poor soldiers, a f quite youiig man named Bossiguol. A j shell, striking him like the lash of a ; whip, bad carried away both eyes and the bridge of his nose, leaving the front of the skull bare. This fearful wound was covered with a dressing, rile lay there calm, silent and motion , less, in quiet resignation. Bismarck ( stopped in front of him and asked uie j what was his case. lie seemed really ioucihmi. lucre is ur iui jou, sleurs, the -senators and deputies! Theu. turning to one of bis suit, he said; 'Please bring me some wine and a glass.' He tilled the glass to the brim, took a.. sip and then, gently tap ping the shoulder of the poor martyr, said, 'My friend, will you not drink something?' Bousing himself from the deathlike stupr that was creeping over htm, the man tissented. "We then saw Bismarck stoop and very softly and slowly give the wound ed soldier the wine, Bislng again, be drank what was left -in the glass and i snld. "What Is your name, my boy, and j where do yon come from? "Rossignol. from Brittany.' Thtvfoutit then took his hand and said. I am Bismarck. my comrade, and I am very proud to have drunk out of the same glass as :i brave man like you.' and. stretching urn immi ti.tr iitm i iimj iiiuiiiuiru j head, be seemed to give him a mule benediction." It only remains to add to this touch ing and pleasing anecdote that at the lequest of Pr. Czernickl tbe two Prus sian ''"te'n ive everr facility for h ivliK the .tml)iilii( e full of wounded j lrni"rtel Intn the French lines of, i Quick Action Wanted.
