President Wilson told callers today
that he did not feel itiwould be wise
for him to discuss Germany's reply to
the American note until after he had
consulted his cabinet and studied fur.
ther the important questions inolved.

joinder, however, could not be many

Communication.
The outward ;calmiin executiyei quar-:

Wilson and his advisers are giving the

answer is not really ar! answer, but an
evasion kof the greater issue of law
and,humanity. His close !ady dyiserss say
he regards Il asia true reflection OF
the opinion OF the country.
While the President himself would
give no, intimation$ of his course; many
Of those familiar with his previous at:
titude thought the American rejoinder
would be brief and demand ian early
reply. Failure to meet the American
representations would, 1t was freely

Do NOT Seem To Be inundated By Recent
indictment.

From ths maay captures of whiskey by
the Indian Police here it looks as though
the liquor traaics is on the increase in this
section apd the saloon keepers in Ashland
are not in the least intimidate by the recent
Grand Jury indictments or do not care in
the least for such action. We are of the
opinion that the time for another raid in
this district is ripe. We are informed by a
prominent man of this village that he with
a friend walked up to Ashland last Monday
just to see if reports of whiskey were true
and he says it is q disgrace the way whiskey
is being dispensed to the Indian by the
saloons of Ashland and in conversation with
parties in Ashland he learned of several
salaons selling to Indians under the pretence
of their being allotted Indians. We wonder
under what section of the treaty pretaining
to the sale Of whisksy to the Indians this
