SURPRISING a newspaper printed in
the English language in Germany
were to indulge in sneers at the i'm
perial government and give place to
pro-American expressions, what
would happen to it? What would the
beloved Kaiser do to it? Here in
America some German newspapers
are guilty of slurring the government
of the country of their adoption, and
give alteration to the despotism and
militarism whence fled the Schurzes,
the Daenzers, and men of their
honored ilk. Idon't like it; no true
American-native or naturalized-
likes it.

The following, from Zurich, Switzer-
land, dated July 81, is rather interest,"
ing to citizens Of the United States:
american travellers arriving here
today from Berlin report that there
were serious anti-American disturb
ances in the German capital on Tues
day and Wednesday of this week. A
large crowd Of students gathered in
front of the American embassy and
hooted and yelled until they were
dispersed by a force of police sum-
moned to protect the building. The
police according to the travellers, re-
quested Americans in Berlin to refrain
from wearing the Stars and Stripes in
badges or scarfpins, the sight Of
which, they say, irritates the Germans
and often exposes the wearers to in
suits and molestations.D
OF course, the American flag is not
pleasantto the eyes of the worshippers
of Imperialism. The starry emblem
stands for everything antithetical to
the doctrine Of divine institution OF
hereditary rule on the part of the
insolent, favored few, and abject,
accomplishing submission by the
"common" people, created for serv-
ing their born betters. The students
being Of a preferred class, it is but
natural that they should uphold the
established condition and look with
disfavor upon the leveling emblem
proclaiming government Of the peo-
pie by the people. It is the n~aturalized
citizen who came here to enjoy "life,
liberty and pursuit Of happiness" and
to transmit these blessings to his
children, that should bear true allegi-
ance to the country of his adoption,
and as q rule he does; but occasionally
you find one who makes bis loyalty
here subordinate to loyalty to the land
Of bis birth. He cannot In reason
wonder that the native American
looks with aversion upon such con-
ditional allegiance.

IT is not love for the English, it is
not ill-will to the German people, that
has induced our strained relations.
The question at issue is one of justice
and humanity, Have neutral nations
any rights pertaining to life and
property to be respected by warning
Old World despotisms? Official Ger
many sneers at the proposition, and
the Kaiser's submarines continue to
sink and drown, regardless of fact
and circumstance. He being in strict
league with the Almighty, perhaps
we ought to sit down, kiss the rod
that smites US, and make no protest.
That seems to be the view of the
Neutrality League and the pro-Ger-
mar press, of whom there are just
enough to disgust decent Americans.

THE following is going the rounds
of the "W. @. T. U. Column" papers:
The American Temperance Life
Insurance Association of New York,
organized in 1889, to provide life in
a for total abstainers, was
wrecked by issuing policies to 'tmod-
crate drinkers" its officers assert.
Frank Delauo, formerly president of
the association, said the largest loss
was due to permitting moderate users
of Intoxicating liquors to become
policy holders. "The deaths in this
class were fifty per cent more than
among the total abstainers," he
declared.
That's the sort of CUFF the "reform-
ers'' feed to their credulous following.
There is not an old line life insurance
company in the United States that
refuses to take a moderate drinker if
he be otherwise temperate and in
ordinary good health. If the moderate
drinkers killed the American Temper
ance Life Insurance Association, how
explain the survival of the Aetna, the
New York Life, the New York Mutual,
and a of kindred organiza-
tions? Go tol A little stimulation is
a good thing, and, Intellectually, the
ordinary w. Q. 7. U. Column dope
seems to stand in need of it.

Company | Boys
Home From Camp
Return from LakevieW Saturday
Well Pleased with 1915 En-
campment

The Boys of Company L re-
turned to Redwood Falls last
Saturday afternoon after ten
days spent at Camp Lakeview,
where they were given a taste
of realistic camp life. The en-
campment was the most pleas
ant ever made by the local COM
pany, the cool weather keeping
the men in good physical condi-
ton, and the majority of them
thoroughly enjoying the many
new phases of work given.
Forty-four of the company's
members were present at camp,
in charge of Capt. G. F. Gales,
and Lieuts. w. B. Clement and
John Lauterbach. Capt. J. w.
Inglis, State Inspector of Small
Arms, was also in camp during
the entire ten days.
The Redwood Falls boys did
we'll in the several shooting con-
tests. Fred Pick, C. F. Gales,
w. B. Clement and Alfred AID
rich getting high scores among
the Experts, Fred Pick ranking
third high in the regiment. In
the Sharp Shooters, Frank
Theiring, Ernest Gallea, John
Mason, Clarence Hillig, Chas.
Okins and Harre Starr were win
ners and among the Marksmen
were VIM. Arnett, Harold Gray,
John Hustad, Walter Schmidt,
Raymond Walters, Harry War
mel and Luverne Schmidt.
Company L lost fourth posi-
ton in the regiment by only one
point.

j rank Brewster
Has Bad Spill
Auto Upsets; Driver Escapes
Serious Injury though Pinned
beneath Car

Frank Brewster was the VIC
tim of an automobile accident
Monday afternoon from which
his escape without serious in
jury is among the miracles. Mr..
Brewster, who is a driver on one
of the routes for the local cream
cry, was returning to Redwood
Falls from his trip over the
route, and was coming down a
grade five miles north of Delhi
when the accident occurred. Just
how the accident happened is
not very clear to Mr.. Brewster,
but in some unexplainable way
the car was turned completely
over, with Mr.. Brewster under
meath, protected somewhat from
the full weight of the car by the
arm rest of the seat.
The accident happened at
about four o'clock and help came
Immediately as workmen nearby
saw the car when it upset and
were on the spot ten minutes
later. Mr.. Brewster was found
to be not seriously hurt although
badly shaken. Although con-
fined to his bed Tuesday, ply
sicians say his injuries are not
severe enough to cause anxiety
and that he will be able to be
about in a couple of days.
The car was run to town Tues
day on it's own power and was
found to be damaged only very
slightly. The load carried con-
sisted of about six hundred
pounds of cream all of which
was lost except one can.

Chautauqua Is
Pleasing Every One
Successful Season Closes Friday
Evening with Concert by Won
derful FlOrentine Band

The numbers of the Chau-
tauqua given up to date have
been excellent and the attend
ance as good as could be expect
ed under the unpleasant weather
conditions.
A large audience was present
Monday afternoon to hear Col.
Lafayette Young in his very
pleasing recital of his personal
observations on the European
War.
The lecture Monday evening
on "Acres of Diamonds" by DR..
Russell Conwell was another
number which held the intense
interest of the audience and was
one of the most excellent lee
lures of it's character ever heard
in Redwood Falls.
The opening number by Maude
Scheerer and her band of play
e,s was also very satisfactory,
many of the audience saying
they had never seen Twelfth
Night" so cleverly portrayed as
by this troupe. A. E. Wiggam
was heard the evening of July
5 and disappointed none of the
friends whom he made on his
former visits here.
Several excellent numbers are
still to be heard before the close
of the program next Friday
evening.
Wednesday afternoon, Ed
mund Vance Cooke will give one
of his inimitable lecture talks
which are a quaint mixture OF
philosophy, poetry and pleasant
ry.
Wednesday evening DR.. Huns
berger will give an illustrated
lecture on the famous Monies
sori Method of Education, the
illustrations being thrown on the
screen where they may be readi-
ly seen.
Thursday afternoon and even
irg programs will be given by
Robert Bowman, an impersona-
ter and dramatic reader, ard the
Hugh Anderson operate and
Concert Company both pro-
grams promising t. be hi sh'y
entertaining. Friday will be the
day of the biggest musical num-
Der of the whole course, Victo's
Florentine Band giving the en-
tire evening program and an
hours prelude to Paul Deitrick's
lecture on ''The Better Way" in
the afternoon. This is one Of
the finest bands appearing on
Chautauqua circuits anywhere
in the country, and promises
Redwood Falls a rare musical
treat.

Mrs. G. W. Elliott
Suddenly Killed
Receives Fatal Injury in Auto
Accident Wednesday; Rev. G.
w. Elliott Also Injured

Mrs. G. w. Elliott, a former
resident Of Redwood Falls, was
instantly killed in an automobile
accident near Lakefield, Mimi,
last Wednesday afternoon and
Rev. G. w. Elliott, her husband,
was severely injured. Mr.. and
Mrs. Elliott were driving from
their home at Royal, to Delhi
to visit at the home of their
son, Elmer Elliott, and had got
ter about four miles southwest
of Lakefield when the accident
occurred.
Car Upsets
Mr.. Elliott, who was driving
the car, is unable to tell accu-
rately how the accident hap
pened, except that in turning
back into the road after avoid
ing large stone the car COM
pletely upset, pinning Mrs. FL
lott beneath, and fastening Mr..
Elliott in such a way that he
was able to free himself only
after considerable effort. The
car was being driven at about
fifteen miles at the time it
turned.
Whether Mrs. Elliott's death
was caused from fright or from
a blow on the head, it was i'm
possible to determine. While
there were slight bruises upon
her person, the skull was not
fractured, and it is believed her
death may have been due to a
weakened condition of the heart.
Burial at Brandon
The body was taken to Royal
where a funeral service was held
in the church of which Mr.. FL
lott is pastor. From Royal, the
party went to the old home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Elliott at Bran
don, Ia, where a second service
was held and interment made.
Mr.. Elliott is with friends at
Brandon recovering from the
injury to his back sustained IN
the accident, and as soon as ne
IS s.1iciently recovered to traves
he will come to Delhi to stay
for a time with his son: Mr;
and Mrs. Elmer Elliott returned
Saturday from Brandon;
Mrs. Elliott was past Sixty,
two wears of age and is survived
only by her husband and son. n,
her only other child, a daugnter
having died in infancy. Whlle
Mrs. Elliott has been away from
Redwood Falls for several years,
she leaves many friends IN Ihls
vicinity who are grieved at ner
death and who extend the SIN
cerest sympathy to the husband
and son.

onnlication of advanced agrlcul-
t,1ral methods. Among the speak,
ers were Engineers Reynolds ana
French who talked of d1tch con-
struction and the cost OF Dram
age, giving the farmers much
information for future reference
G. Frederickson gave an inter
estinq talk on what drainage has
actually accomplished on lanos
to which he has paid particular
attention and County Auditor
-. P. Larson talked on drainage,
nast and future, in Redwood
County. Mr.. Larson believes
that in the few instances where
ditching has seemingly failed IN n
it's purpose the fault is that OF
poor surveying and construction
which Redwood County has o.
waited by putting the present
work in charge of an engineer
thoroughly conversant with all
phases of the work.
Mr.. Reynolds, with other en-
gineers, believes that as a rule
the work of thing is better and
more permanent if done during
q dry year. This also would 40
away with any danger OF the
field men becoming web-footed,
as Mr.. Reynolds declares MS
crew are likely to become this
year.
One Of the interesting features
of drainage discussed at the
meeting at Clements was the &C
tual cost to the farmer OF the
drainage of his land. This runs
from $40 to $50 an acre for the
land actually benefited which is
a small amount when compared
with the actual results obtained.
Often the richest land on a farm
is valueless until ditching makes
it dry enough for cultivation,
and the expense Of ditch con-
struction is very slight when
compared with the crop raising
possibilities Of the reclaimed
land.

Don't Forget the
Committee of
Censorship!
Citizens Asked to Remeber That
Redwood Falls Has Committee
of Investigation
Woman Solicitor Gets Twenty
Dollars before Committee Is
Notified of Her Work
Sick Printer Helped after His
Case Is Found Worthy of
Assistance
REDWOOD FALLS HAS A
CENSORSHIP COMMITTEEi

CENSORSHIP COMMITTEE!
AS soon as all the business
men Of the city become thor
oughly conversant with this fact
they will find themselves great
ly benefited by the saving of
both time and money.
This committee, consisting of
VIM. M. Smith, F. Lobdell and
E. "A. Pease, was appointed by
Pres. Ira Reynolds of the Com
mercial Club at the suggestion
of one of the members Of the
Club that there was great need
of such a committee to do ac-
tive work in Redwood Falls.
Events Of the past few weeks
have proved this necessity and
have also proved that the COM
mittee can work effectively only
when it's existence is remem-
bered by the citizens.
The purpose of the committee
is to subject all solicitors, of
any character whatsoever, to a
careful investigation to deter
mine the merits of their re-
quests. Frequently, in the past,
business men have been asked
to aid financially many projects
that were absolutely without
worth, and have complied with
the request while being ignor-
ant Of the use to which the sub
scription might be put or who
was to be the beneficiary.
One Man Helped
A short time ago the commit
tee was asked to investigate the
justice Of the requests made for
money by one-time printer who
drifted into town, apparently i'll
and without funds. A local ply
stefan pronounced the man to be
physically unable to work, and
the committee found means for
feeding and lodging him and
sending him to Minneapolis
where he said he would be cared
for. By this action, the COM
mittee not only did a real kind
ness in getting the man where
he would be properly cared for,
but probably relieved Redwood
County from an additional
charge, as the man would I'm
doEbtedly have had to be taken
to the County Home.
Woman Escapes
Friday a woman solicitor OBJ
tanned funds from several bust
ness men, obtaining nearly TWEEN
ty dollars before her case was
called to the attention Of the
committee and hurriedly leaving
town before an investigation
could be made. Grave suspicious
of her honesty of purpose are
now entertained, even the sin
cere friendship she expressed
for one of the most prominent
young business men of the city
being questioned, and her case
serves as a shining example of
what may be avoided in the fu-
ture if citizens will only remem-
Der the Censorship Committee.

Owing to the great number Of
