"There can be but one outcome of this war--either Germany, as an empire,
will cease to exist, or she will emerge the greatest Power, except the

"In six weeks from now we shall have beaten France; in six months we
shall have driven Russia to cover. For England it will take a year--
perhaps longer. And then, as in all games, big and little, the losers
will pay. France will be made to pay an indemnity from which she will
never recover.

ports on the English Channel. Russia will be so humbled that no longer
will the Muscovite peril threaten Europe.
