good Roadway and hog raising has in.
creased 1000 per cent in the IL coun-

Records in county offices show that
more mortgages have been Cancelled in

money in new machinery, in lighting
plants for the farms, in silos and the
installation of cooperative telephone
lines. They are also buying cattle and
hogs. Creameries are to be established
soon at Mandan and other points in

Dutch Paper Comment.

The Hague, via London-1he Dutch papers, while generally commenting upon the American note, virtually agree as to the main points brought out in the following editorial eXpres. sions in the Amsterdam Albemeen HandeIsblad
 The note sent to England but in tended for the powers of the triple entente. is a remarkable symptom. In America as we'll as in other neutral countries, the Illegal measures taken against American commerce have made bad blood
 The note is not intended as a hos tile act, hut is a warning and request with a detailed resume of the com plaints of American shippers The intentions of the note are good.
 Tt is well that Washington drew the attention of the British govern ment to the difficult position of the neutral shippers, but will the protest help? We believe we are justified in doubting this, as in the case of the protests of The Netherlands, Sweden Denmark and Norway. So, this one will be shelved because England will consider above all and above the rights of neutrals, her own interests, which are that nothing which the Germans need must be permitted in the way of traffic. For this the aeu- tral states are sacrificed"

Washington, Dec. 31.-Retentiou ef the Philippine islands by the United States for purposes of naval strategy il event e. was aith foreign nation. sucl as JarGa was advocated today by Dean C. Worcester, testifying be fore the senate Philippine committee on the bill to enlarge the Philippine self-government. Mir Worcester for merly was secretary of the interior ia the Philippines.
 In addition to his discussion of the military importance of the islands, Mir. Worcester told the committee he had private dispatches that the pres ent disturbance in the islands was in significant in accomplishments, but dangerous on account of the agitation of the lower classes. He said peon. age was the greatest practical evil on the islands and that slavery stin existed. He urged the committee not to attempt by force to eradicate poly gamy from among the Moros, but to allow it to die out as the result Of friendly teachings.
 Finally Mir Worcester pleaded with the committee to save the non-Chris. tian tribes from extermination by the Filipinos. He urged that the bill he amended by providing for lieutenant governor for the non4Christiaa tribes to have the power to annul legislation touching these tribes
 The statements regarding the strat- egical importance of the Philippines followed the remark by Chairman Hitchcock that some persons adyo- cated American withdrawal from the islands. without regard to the interest of the Philippines in order to avoid the possibility of involving the United States in war
 MT. Worcester declared it was idle to deny Japan could land an armed force in the islands, and that it would be impossible to prevent very long the fail of Manila. The gaining of the control of the Bay of Manila. how. | ever he urged, would be a far differ ent matter and so strongly fortified was Corregidor that this naval base should be able to hold out a year be- | fore being taken

Take Warnina Seriously.

London. The American note 10 Great Britain concerning the search of American vessels by British ships is further discussed by the London morning newspapers today
 The Standard in an editorial warns the country the American protest is a serious one and should not be treat. ed lightly that the sentiment in the United States ia favor of the allies Is less pronounced than it was three months ago and that it is yielding to a feeling in favor of Germany as the under dog in a fight against great odds. Therefore, the newspaper says, if any solution is possible, the United States should be met half way.
 A suggestion appears in the Morn ing Post that a remedy for the griev- ance of undue delay in searching yes sels would be to pass short act in parliament giving the neutral trader the right to come to British court of justice and by a process involving a minimum Of delay to claim damages arising from the detention of his yes sel or cargo
 The Morning Post contends edto, rially that American copper exporters by no means have been ruined, declar- ing that in September and October. 1913. they sold ten millions pounds of copper to Italy, Holland. Norway and Sweden and that in the same months p toners fifty million pounds,
 We trust the editorial continues that the British government will full fill the whole letter of the law and give to President Wilson his full pound of flesh; but we hope there is enough human nature in the ad- mralty and the navy to arrange that all copper imports of neutrals and all their imports, analogous to that of copper shall swing to and remain at the normal peace level"
 The Daily Mail says it considers the question at issue as much one of procedure as of principle. It protests against getting needlessly excited about the note and informs Americans that even in the standpoint of their own interests it is relatively not a vital matter, since far greater ques- tions are on the anvil It contends that in the victory of the allies lies the security and well being of the United States and the triumphs of American conceptions Of society and government. The editorial concludes with the statement that the allies are fighting Americas battles as well as their own~but none the less 1t will be good thing to get the awkward proposition of contraband satisfac- torily settled,

 Herr Lehman, chairman of the Bremen chamber Of commerce, stated at a meeting of the Bremen mer- chants that Germany was provided with victuals sufficient for years. The high standard of German sci ence he added rendered it possible to supply substitutes for the raw ma. terials necessary for warfare which cannot be imported. and that there fore the shutting off of German i'm ports by the British is damaging only the interests of neutrals
 Amsterdam reports that l6 British steamers on the South American coast are overdue and that the sus- picion has arisen that they have been sunk by German auxiliary cruisers.
