No Victory: No Throne. Ccant Reventlow in the Tages- zeitung wiites excitedly regarding the democrats' cry of “No terri-, torial expansion, sest or west, He even uses threats to intimidate the Kaiser: "A German victory and a German monarchy are mutually dependent. Without a German victory" a German mon- Broby will soon, cesse to exist.” Reventlow conclud se : “For." exponents of national monarchi |cal priceiples in: Germany it in

now time to act-otherwise they-- may suddenly find themselves confronted with a situation which would be difficult, if not hopeless." The Tageblatt writes of all things "It is somewhat piquant at the very time when a leading Socialist organ. (Vorwäerts) upholds the monarchical idea in Germany, to see a supporter of the throne and altar write in such a strain.”

Straits Settlements Resident- Councillor

His mapy frierõs in Penang, says the Strat Eche, will be

sorry to hear that Mr. W. 0. Miobell was not in good bealth when the last mail_left England, It seama a little doubtful now whether be will be able to come out to the Straits to take up the appointment of Resident Councillor.. This may cause reguler general post'in the upper ranks of the service, for in the event of Mr. Michell being obliged A to remain in England there will be no dearth of Fandidates for the local Residency which is in many ways a pleasant and desirable billet. It means a great deal to Penang who does eventually come here and if His Excellency will make a few discreet enquiries is unofficial circles he will ceoon, hesr of st least two „** possibles", whom the

public most emphatically do not desire to see representing the King, the Governor or the Colonial Office in this Settlement. A eplation perfectly agreeable to The Bommunity se a whole sojald e be to allow Mr. W. Peel to non- tinue to carry on until the end of the war.
