"Yes, shooting one another down by the thousands in Berlin as they will some day in New York. Yes, the radicals are definite enough.... The revolution rumbling away in Germany isn't a standup fight between Capital and Labor. It's Radical versus Radical. Just as the war was Imperialist versus Imperialist.
She is, therefore, our possession as the fruit tree is that of the gardener." That is what the imperialist is thinking when he speaks of the glory of the empire and the prestige of the nation. Every country has its appeal its shibboleth ready for the lips of the imperialist.
To take an example which will bring the matter home at once, many imperialist Englishmen on visiting the West Indies have become convinced that certain of England's possessions in those regions could with advantage to all parties be transferred to the United States.
"Will you learn from him, gracious sir?" cried Burgsdorf passionately, "would you go to school to him, to that Catholic, that Imperialist?" "Tell me a better schoolmaster for my father's son?" asked the Electoral Prince softly.
"The imperialist," he wrote, "wants no League of Nations, but if, in response to the universal cry of masses everywhere, there is to be one, he is interested to secure one suited to his own purposes, one that will permit him to continue the historic game of pawns and peoples the juggling of provinces, the old balance of power, and the inevitable wars attendant upon these things.
You were the only figure in politics which the imperialist party in England had to fear. Mrs. Carraby I believe that was the lady's name is ill-paid enough with that peerage.
Had Marlborough been unhampered, the war would probably have ended some years before it did; as it was, the wonderful successes of the general were made possible by his skill and tact as a diplomatist. He had, moreover, the good fortune to have at his side in the Imperialist general, Prince Eugene of Savoy, a commander second only to himself in brilliance and leadership.
Colonel Munro gave him an escort of twenty troopers; with these he crossed the river at nightfall, and, making a detour to avoid the Imperialist outposts, rode some fifteen miles on his way. He then dismounted and handed over his horse to his escort, who at once started on their way back to Amberg, while he pursued his journey on foot towards Pilsen.
Day after day messengers came in with the news that the other places which had been garrisoned by the Swedes had been captured, and very shortly the Imperialist army was seen approaching. The garrison knew that they could expect no relief from Gustavus, who had ten days before marched northward, and all prepared for a desperate resistance.
In this I related how at Washington just before the War of Sections I had a musical pal the niece of a Southern senator who had studied in Paris, been a protegee of the Empress Eugenie and become an out-and-out imperialist. Louis Napoleon was her ideal statesman.
