A GERMAN REPUBLIC.
.SIR JOSEPH WARD’S FEELINGS WELLINGTON, Nov. 4. “1 know that the people of Xw Zealand will agree with me,’ said Sir Joseph Ward, to-dav, “when I sav that we will not be satisfied unles the last penny piece of indemnity is extracted from a blackguardly’ and ruthless foe, if only for the purpose of teaching the nations that have been associated with Germany that it will never pay them to be connected again with the blood* thirstv scoundrels who have tried to dominate the world. I have no sympathy with. the country that started this war. I regard it as an absolute horror of the civilised times in which we live that one man, or a few men, at; the head of an autocratic system ot , Government in Germany, should be] able to plunge the whole world into j war. I believe that one of the retribntions that is going to overtake the ruiors of Germany is that their country will become a republic, with the people themselves ruling.”
