WHINING OF THE HUN.
LIKE COXVICTED CRIMINALS. The best proof of how the war is going is to be found in the utterances of our chief enpmv Nothing has givm nic much more pleasure and. -at flic same t'lne. justified to much disgust as the recent pronouncements of TiethmannHollwtg and the Crowr. Prince of Germany (writes a London correspondent), it was a fortunate coincidence that these pronouncements synchronised with Hie now famous interview of Mr. Llovd George with (he American Press. The pronouncements put side by side are. the very best index of the present fortunes of the war The British interview is a trumpet blast: the German interview? are abject whines 'We know the Germans sufficiently by this time to understand,'that when they are winning, their mood is not modest; it is indeed their irrogancft that, has been their undoing. When they whine, then, it is not, be sure, tliey have had a real change of their inner heart. Savage militarists these German lowers began; savage they remain: the only difference is. that at last they have realised they are beaten; and l : ke so many a convicted and cruel criminal, ihey throw themselves with a hypocritical snufile 011 the mercv of the Court.
