The chief points put by the majority are that the proceedings will tend to rehabilitate the exKaiser, now a dis- credited figure; that, as it seems to be agreed there will be no death penalty, they will be mainly spect- acular and unreal; and that they will bring upon Britain something of the odium which for so long attached to us as the jailers of Napoleon.

There is force in all three conten- tions; and much, might also be the inexpediency ot said as further distracting the public riad from the argent business of setting in order a house so ready to tumble about our ears. On the other hand, it is difficult to see how we can call the minor figures to account for their atrocities if the Highest of All goes scot free.

It is certain that the ex-Kaiser can know no worse fate than his present one. To him may fitly be applied the phrase of Distaeli's. when asked the name of an aged peer, "Oh. He's dead, that's old" he said. but we don't let him know it."
