"Nations of Europe! Join in the defence of your Faith and your Home!"

The Kaiser's

Picture
Politics.

LONDON, December 2nd, 1895. The Emperor William is again justifying the observation made long ago that his true rôle in life was to be a newspaper editor. The post would have suited him much better than that which he now occupies. He seems to feel this himself, and last month he astonished his subjects by coming out as political cartoonist, which may indeed be regarded as a long step towards editorship. I reproduce by permission as frontispiece of the REVIEW OF REVIEWS this first incursion of the Kaiser into a field hitherto free from Imperial and Royal intruders. The Emperor did not draw the picture; he gave the idea to the artist, approved of the finished result, and presented the original as a delicate compliment to the Tzar. Lest any one should fail to understand this unique example of Imperial picture politics, the Nord-Deutsche was authorised to accompany the engraving with the following semiofficial exposition of what its Imperial author wants it to signify

The Far The explanation, Eastern Situa- which is certainly

tion from a

German not lacking in exStandpoint. plicitness, is follows:

as

At the foot of the rocky plateau stands the vast plain of civilised Europe. A majestic stream gushes across it. Lines of mountains bound the horizon, and in the valley cities are discerned, in the midst of which tower churches of various creeds. In the foreground is the Castle of Hohenzollern. But over these peaceful landscapes clouds of calamity are rolling up. Dark pitchy vapours obscure the sky. The path trodden by the invaders in their onward career is marked by a sea of flames proceeding from a burning city. Dense clouds of smoke twisting into the form of hellish, distorted faces ascend from the conflagration. The threatening danger in the form of Buddha is enthroned in this sombre framework. A Chinese dragon, which at the same time represents the demon of Destruction, carries this heathen idol. In an awful onset the powers of darkness draw nearer to the banks of the protecting stream. Only a little while, and that stream is no longer a barrier.

LORD SALISBURY.

On a plateau of rock bathed in light radiating from the Cross-that symbol in which alone Christians win their victories-stand allegorical figures of the civilised nations. In the foreground is France shading her eyes with her left hand. She cannot yet altogether believe in the proximity of danger; but Germany, armed with shield and sword, follows with attentive eye the approach of calamity. Russia, a beautiful woman with a wealth of hair, leans her arm, as if in close friendship, on the shoulder of her martial companion. Beside this group Austria stands in resolute pose. She extends her right hand in an attitude of invitation, as if to win the cooperation of still somewhat reluctant England in the common task. Italy stands between these two Powers, and, like Germany, eagerly gazes on the calamity which menaces them. The rearguard of this group of noble female figures is formed by a young girl with ringlets of curling hair. She images the smaller civilised States, and she, too, carries a spear. In front of this martial group of many figures stands unmailed the winged archangel Michael, holding in his right hand a flaming sword. His countenance is turned towards the female group, his features reflect grave energy, and his outstretched left hand, which points to the approaching horror, also emphasises the invitation to prepare for the sacred conflict.

Beneath the original cartoon His Majesty wrote the autograph legend: "Nations of Europe, defend your holiest possessions." It would be more to

The Near

Eastern the purpose just now Question. if our Imperial Editor Cartoonist would prepare another picture, illustrating his view of the Near Eastern Question, which at present is very much more pressing than any danger with which Buddha and the Yellow Dragon have anything to do. The situation in Asiatic Turkey is alarming to the last degree; massacres are reported daily. The Moslems in the provinces hearing that the Powers insist upon the Christians having officials in proportion to their numbers, grimly respond to their benevolent intentions by reducing the Christian population to vanishing point. In Erzeroum there seems to be now no doubt that the massacre was carried out in cold blood by the Turkish soldiers in obedience to definite orders from the authorities. In Syria, the Mohammedans have been armed, the troops have been supplied with green flags, and the Christians await in an agony of suspense the signal for a slaughter grim and great. The Sultan and his pashas appear to have made up their minds that the Christian populations need to be thinned down, and, as the Powers bark but dare not bite for fear they should bite each other, the horrible work of massacre plus torture, outrage, and plunder goes merrily on. So widespread has been the devastation
