CUSHING, Neb., Feb. s--To the Bdi-
tor Of The Bee: 1t is with much interest
have read the letters concerning ttk
present struggle in Europe 1t appears
to me that the great fault of the honor
able writer's is exaggeration. Why not
be fair In judging or not Judge at all?
Mr.. H. Steinkraus in his letter invites
an investigation. He says: STUDY the
German and Austrian history for the last
lO years or more and he will find that
Germany and Austria never were agrees
sive-this means never claimed what did
not rightfully belong to them"
LIS this ignorance, prejudice or what?
Ask the Poles IL that Is the way they
feel towards Russia, Austria and Ger
many? They have not forgotten that
these three powers sat down like a band
of robbers in 1874. and drew in 1914, and
divided Poland among themselves.
Barnes History calls It "the greatest
crime OF the eighteenth century,"
Ask Denmark and the 10000 Danes of
North schleswig. They stilI painfully re-
member 1864, when Germany and Austria
combined robbed Denmark Of its right
ana old possessions OF Schleswig-Hol-
stein and Lauenburg The Russian and
British powers sat quietly and consented
TO this highway robbery, although they
had promised help. The history Of the
German modern navy dates from 1854.
Now England, Russia, ETC., are having
their hands fun fighting the Teutons. 1t
certainly does SAVIOR of divine retribu-
ton.
Nor have the Danes forgotten the act
OF England in 1907, when It, under a subtle
excuse, bombarded Copenhagen and stole
the whole navy.
And ask the French of Alsace-L.orraine
II they can subscribe to the opinion OF
Mr.. Steinkraus? They suffer under the
result Of 1901 unto this day.
More couldS be added of the atrocities
OF France, Turkey. Belgium, Japan. ETC.,
but let this be sufficient to show the In
consistency Of the hypothesis OF Mr.,
Steinkraus and others.
II Is not wise for any one living In a
glass house to fight with stones. AS for
me. IL should choose between the ''kul-
tur'' OF either the Teuton, Slav or Latin.

However, third strong objection heard from these
greater manufacturing and shipping centers is tho
plea that such legislation would nfct still greater
losses on American business. This country has al
ready suffered severely because of the war the
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. which thinks st
would be the very OF stupidity to sacrifice such

More plainly still the New York Times tells that
TO restrict trade in at the demand Of the friends

whether the German Americans that importune con-

partner in crime in permitting the house OF Krupp

at the many suggestions offered by
the great politicians and business
men in order to alleviate the suffer-

very willing to work l would sug-
gest that we dig a deep waterway
from our city to the Gulf of Mexico.
This is a great work which should
have been done twenty years ago, but
the great railroads of this country
have prevented this improvement.

people of this state place this matter
before Gov. Dunno. The Taxpayers
of this state maintains a stream
called the old canal, which has not
earned the state dollar in twenty
years. would like to ask your
readers if they have ever heard Of
this stream, which is kept open for
the politicians and their friends. How

IDEAS AND cRIME.-Complaint is
made that single takers take too
much room in your estimable paper.
There is some truth in this. If you
don't restrain them they win crowd
out all the other people that have
fads. When the foolish idea that
folks have equal rights to the use of
the earth gets in a mans head he
needs restraint. If the delusion that
taxes upon labor products in course
of exchange are shifted to the con-
sumner and bring higher prices gets
hold of a man he is dangerous to so

That may pacify him. If he gets to
believing that speculation in land
makes rents high and wages low and
brings on panics he is doubly dan

Then you will have plenty Of room

KEEP BUSY

Watch and work! That is the
keynote to success in having good
roads at all seasons of the year.
And roads are a good deal like a
crop of grain. The start they get
in the spring largely determines
their quality throughout the rest
of the year. So watch your roads
this spring, from now on, and
work them whenever there is any
sign at all that they need it.
AS the spring thaws and rains
come, see that culverts and brid-
ges are open so that the floods of
water will run through them in
stead of across the surface of the
road. Above all things, keep the
water from the middle of the
road, if there is anything that
will turn perfectly good road in
to a quagmire it is having a
stream of water slowly working
it's way down the middle of the
highway.
Do not let the road dry up while
still filled with ruts and covered
The Wahpeton times. [volume] (Wahpeton, Richland County, Dakota [N.D.]) 1879-1919, 1915-03-18

with chunks and daubs of mud
which will dry into great clods.
When the mud gets good and
thick, just like first class mortar
or little thicker-go onto the
road with your drag and smear
and puddle it smooth and level. If
it gets cut up again before it gets
thoroughly dry, go over it again
and smooth it down; keep doing
this until it has dried smooth and
hard.
This is the kind of work which
makes good, smooth, hard roads;
roads which are a pleasure rather
than penance to drive over;
roads which make hauling to mar
ket easy and cheap; the roads
which pay, rather than cost; the
kind business farmer likes to
have running past his farm.
