Transcript	The reins of power in Hungary are once again in the hands of Tisza, that best disciple of the Ministers of Tsarism, hated by the whole of Hungary. Even in 1912 he drew up a row of machine guns in front of the Hungarian Parliament, and bombarded the demonstrating workers with artillery. Tisza is the last hope of the Monarchy, the last card of German Imperialism in its attempts to forestall the revolutionary explosion of the proletarian movement. The Hungarian Cabinet, at Tisza's demand, has been dismissed, and his servile follower, Baron Burian, has been appointed Minister for Foreign Affairs. Tisza is thus once again dictator—now no more under the Austrian Charles IV., but under the German William II. Meanwhile, in Galicia, proletarian and peasant revolts are breaking out.

Count Tisza is officially the strategist of the Austro- Hungarian counter-revolution : but he is really the chief factor of revolution. Germany, beyond all possible doubt, has reason to be afraid—and she is afraid. They have already tried the old method—that of concealing the danger: "Vorwarts" has been suppressed for a day.

But, only because the social-traitorous paper dared to say, very cautiously, that in Austria-Hungary the position had become serious, it was closed by the German censorship. The German Empire is having recourse to the old methods of Tsarism—lies, and the suppression of any hint of revolution. But this will be of as little avail to save the (6)
