BE AN AMERlcAN-FIRsr ],
LAST AND ALL the Time

Half the world is busy fighting
the other half. Hatred and malice
toward one another is spreading
through Europe as poison spreads
through the human system,
blasting, whitening, destroying.
The United States has kept out
of the trouble so far. But millions
of this country's inhabitants have
kinsmen across the sea. Fathers.
mothers, sisters, brothers or
more distant relatives.
And when one has kinsmen, ey-
en- distant kinsmen, killing Or
being killed in the trenches, it is
hard to control the feelings, to be
neutral-to refrain from singing
the hymn of hate-to refrain
from feeling bitter towards your
neighbor here, whose kinsmen,
perhaps, are part of the foes
your kinsmen are fighting. d
This is the time then to be an.
American first.
Nail old glory to the mast and
then stand by the flag. You are
a citizen of the United States. We
DO not want to NEEDLE in this
affair in Europe-except to bring
about peace if possible!
Feel sorrow and pain that the
petty i'll feeling of crowned pup
pets should cause the slaughter
OF millions of men-some, per-
haps, kinsmen of yours - but
when hatred begins to steal into
your heart and the blood red haze
OF the battlefield rises before your
eyes
Stop and remember that:
You are an American-f1rst,
last and all the time.-Courier-

ANOTHER COUNTY LIKELY

Mandan, N. D., April 13.-Be-
cause election officials failed to
properly stamp and mark absent
voters ballots, North Dakota is
more than likely to have new
county, Grant. A proposition at
the last election to cut thirty-four
townships and form the new
county of Grant was defeated by
thirteen votes. Yesterday, in
the official recount of ballots in
connection with the election con-
test brought by the Divisionists,
twenty three absent voters bal
lots were found illegally stamped.
All were against division and the
anti-Divisionists now practically
concede the. split.

jim HILL GOES TO WINNIPEG

In the winter of 1868-7O Jim"
Hill made a trip to Winnipeg or
Fort Garry, as it was then called.
That trip was perhaps fraught
with more future meaning than
any trip ever made by a white
man through the Red River VAL
ley country of the northwest. At
that time Hill was engaged in the
transportation business on the
Mississippi and his shrewd, far
seeing mind became inquisitive
about the great Red river coun-
try, which was making men like
Commodore Kittson wealthy
through immense profits in fur
trading. Hill of those days was
a physical giant possessed of al
most unlimited energy and ca
pacity for hard work. He was a
dreamer and at the same time q
doer. Leaving st. Paul he made
his way to the Red river and pro-
ceeded north to the present site
of Winnipeg. The wonderful ex-
panse of country that met his
gaze as he Travelled along the riv-
er captured his Imagination and
impelled him to enter upon the
greatest career as a constructive
railroad genius that the history
of the world records. Returning
to st. Paul he organized the firm
of Hill, Griggs & Co., and formed
the Red River. Transportation
company, linking st. Paul and the
Mississippi with the Red river
country by the first transporta-
ton system worthy Of the name.

The steamer Selkirk was built at
McCauleyville, under the direc-
ton of Captain Griggs, founder
OF Grand Forks, and freighting OF
large scale was soon under way.
During the succeeding decade
railroad plans were forming il
the mind of Hill as his confidence
in the future of the Red river
country increased. His final en-
try into the railroad battle of the
Northwest is one of the most dra-
matte incidents in the history OF
Minnesota and Dakota territory.
