GERMAN IMPUDENCE.

The collossal impudence of the humourless Htin is again exemplified by the German Government's complaint regarding the extermination of the murderous gang who maimed the submarine sunk by the Baralong. Even if the stories of the pro-German Americans, (who, by-the-way, seem to have overlooked the fact that the arrival of the Baralong probably saved their mean lives) are quite true, the German pirates obtained far less than their deserts, for one does not stand on ceremony in the extermination of rats. Red-handed, these jeering liends with the crime of the Arabic just committed, were caught and

dealt with apparently without mercy, but as they most richly deserved. That Sir E. Grey should endeavour to even explain the position is another evidence of Britain's punctilious regard of every rule of honour and fair play. But even to the densest niind it is pretty plain that the real underlying idea in the Hun mind is to draw a red herring across the scent because

the latest high-sea murder by the sinking of the Persia appeared even almost too much for America to swallow without some antidote. Therefore the cunning resurrection of the Baralong story at this moment.
