The Pioneer Drug Store has installed
a postage vending machine of the latest
pattern. It is known as the Duplex

postage stamps. It is claimed to be alb
solutely sanitary and to have been ap--

A PROTEST.
To the American Public and the
American Press.

WHEREAS conflicting, meagre, in
accurate and possibly highly colored
news items concerning the war situation
appear in part Of the American Press, and
WHEREAS all such news items con-
corning Austria Hungary and Ger
many are censored by the authorities of
antagonistic governments-and
WHEREAS-the underlying motives
which justified the Governments of Aus
tro-Hungary and Germany to take such
steps as would properly protect their
interests and integrity, are greatly mis-
understood because Of such unreliable
and onesided reports.
THEREFORE, BE it resolved that we,
the undersigned, representing the large
and loyal American citizenship of German
and Austrian extraction, appeal to the
we'll known fairmindedness of our Ameri-
can fellow citizens and ask them to with
hold judgement regarding the present
European crisis until authentic reports
on the actual situation of both sides are
available, and avoid anything that tends
to confuse the public mind and so inter-
fere with that great desire of our Repub-
lie to maintain it's strict neutrality.
Be it further resolved that we vigorous
ly protest against the careless handling of
unconfirmed, biased and sensational news
matter. We do not ask that any par
TALLY be shown Germany or Austria
Hungary, but we urgently request that
fair treatment be accorded them. The
liberal support which the American Press
receives from the German Americans, the
important place the latter have taken in
the upbuilding Of this great country and
the loyal manner in which they have at
all times performed their duties as Ameri-
can citizens, fully entitle them to this
request.
