We have not always agreed with
the President OF the United States.
1t Is the right of any citizen to dis
agree in politics, In the handling Of
matters which affect the industrial
and business interests OF the coun-
try. We do not believe in the
Presidents tariff views and in much
Of the legislation which he has
forced upon the. country. But when
1t comes to question OF the Ma
tion's honor--when the greatest OF
all questions. that OF peace or war.

upheld.
The note is written deliberately
and cOolly. There Is not word

That Is the meaning.
1t Is a splendid document which
President Wilson has written and
which Secretary Bryan has signed.
1t gives Germany every opportunity
to change its methods. Indeed. It
must change its methods or else it
will face the solemn declaration of
the President that no act will be
omitted that is necessary to main

this country.

The President has expressed the
unanimous voice Of the great Ameri-
can Republic. Whatever may have
been the apprehension OF the nation,
stirred to its very soul by the great
est series Of Outrages ever perpe-

Premier Asquith's statement that

has satisfied those who desired drastic
action.

appeared before the magistrates they
we're told sharply that the best way to

In this latter connection, the West
minister Gazette said:
People who hunt and assault aliens
and loot their shops are not the people
no are going to help us right our
wrongs, They are loafers and shirkers,
who are not going to war and whose
violence has no patriotic motive"
IL Is notable that no complaints have
been received Of aliens suffering from
personal injury. or the many hundred
who appNa red at the American embe ssy

showed signs OF having been engaged in

Under English law the taxpayers Of
localities where the shops were wreck

The Administra has spoken,
and spoken to the point. The Ger
man government cannot have the
slightest doubt as to It's meaning.
The issue lies with Berlin. 1t is held
to a strict accountability" as the
Administration promised 1t would be.
1t must d!sclaim It's acts. it must
make whatever reparation 1t can. 1t
must avow nn intention of not re-
peating its offense. The alternative
ts not explicitly stated, but 1t Is none
ehe less obvious
Nor Is the form Of the note less ad-
nirable than the substance. The
gravity of the situation created by
the series Of acts beginning with the
sinking of the Falab and culminat-
ing in the sinking of the Lusitania Is
set forth in restrained but forcible
language. The best traditions Of
American diplomacy are worthily fol-
lowed in this declaration of the Ad-
ministration's purpose to defend the

ST. PAUL PIONEER PRESS.

The American note reaches to a
wonderful height Of forceful diplo-
macy. There is in 1t no fault Of
overstatement, no b!emish Of brag-
gadocio. The firmness of it's tone Ia
strengthened by the measured tenn
perateness which characterizes every
expression. 1t Is calculated to bring
the German government to a sense
Of its obligation to civilization and
humanity.
The assumption that the acts COM
planned of were the result OF a mis-
apprehension Of the orders of the
German naval authority is a diplo-
matte scattering Of roses upon the
German pathway to a peaceful solu-
ton of the difficulty. 1t opens the
gate to such a disavowal as may
prove the first easy step to an ad-
justment that will smooth away the

broiler and oven. A large cabinet for
supplies adjoining the range completes

On the righthand side, upon entering,
is a lavatory, then large cupboard and
an ingenious card table which can be con-

holds the cameras and films. The kitcheh
is seven feet long.
We then come to the sitting room or
salon. In the daytime this compart-
ment, which is some ten fee, long. is
furnished with three immense setteas,
all Of which face toward the front.
These lounges are covered in very
artistic fashion, the whole scheme OF in
terror decoration being designed with a
view to the beautiful as we'll as the
practical. A talking machine with the
very latest records occupies one corner
OF this salon.
At night the salon is converted into q
bedroom for six people. Three sleeping
berths let down from the ceiling of the
room, although they are designed In such
way that during the daytime no one

the three settees, are readily converted
into comfortable beds. Mattresses six
inches thick Of special construction are
provided to insure comfort.
Each berth is provided with it's own
electric reading lamps, one at each end,
and has special arrangements for hang.

We now come to the front apartment,

the salon BY large window, allowing the
passengers to have q front view as we'll

There is rail around the roof which

with waterproof folding top, allowing
for outdoor sleeping when the weather
is favorable. A large silk American flag
flies from regulation flagpole with hal
yards.
Awnings are provided for each of the
windows for use when the car is stand

When the roof garden is cleared for
