The Wind of Democracy
"Without doubt, the majority of the German nation is still monarchist. The different peoples of Germany still hold to their princes, more or less, according to the individual character of the sovereigns. But that confidence in the supreme chief of the Empire is still entirely intact is an affirmation which, after three years of war, cannot be maintained. . . . Confidence in the direction of the Empire has begun to disappear among the German people. . . . They begin to ask themselves how it happens that nearly all the world is in arms against us, and who is responsible for it."
Reply of Prince von Hohenlohe to the clerical deputy, Spahn,
in the Reichstag.
