Philadelphia Ledger Thinks 1t Is
Now Time to Act in
Matter.
GERMAN PAPERS PLEASED
AT TONE OF NOTE
Further Exchange of Notes With
Germany Likely; Insist
on Demands.

Philadelphia, July 10-The Public
Ledger says:
"The German note in effect is fiat
refusal of the American demands.
Such a reply is an insult to the intel
ligence of the American people, and
discussion is useless, and debate is
futile. The president promised to
omit no word or act to Vindicatc the
honor Of the United States. The word
has been spoken and rejected 1t is
now time for action
Chicago, July 10.-American news
papers generally, commenting editor
tally on the German note, fail to see
any answer to the American requests,
and assert the note is evading the is
sue. The Chicago Herald says:
"The German government practi-
cally aftirms because its wrongs at
the hands OF the British government,
the rights Of Americans and other
neutrals have ceased to exist.

"The tone rather than the sub

Detroit. July 1O.-The Abend Post
says:
"Impartial Americans cannot but
find the German answer perfectly sat

Northern Pacific Fears More Slides
on Ira ok Near Fargo. .a
Fargo, N. d., July 10.-The blue
clay underneath the famous Stock
wood fill Is miles east of this place, is
again proving slippery as a result of
the cloudburst in this section nearly
two weeks ago. ........-
The Northern Pacific constru ,ted
this fill a number Of years ago at an
expense of between $1,000,000 and
$2,000,00O. The great weight of the
earth used in the fill caused slides on
the blue clay for many years, but for
several months there had been no
trouble until recently when the clay
became saturated with water
The company now has 500 men at
work on the fill and intends to add
millions of yards of additional filing
and make the base so wide that fllt-
ure slides will be improbable. Only
one of the double tracks is at present
open for traffic.

tiOn by some parties at the election

means that the city Of Halliday will
forge to the front with consolidate
schools and school privileges for all
concerned.

PICNIC POSTPONED,
ROADS ARE BAD

Manager Gross Of Sibley Camp, who
invited the members of the Bismarck
Commercial club and also the travel.
ing men in the city to picnic at
the camp today, was forced to call
the picnic off yesterday on account
of the road. The recent heavy rains
have made the road to the camp al
most impossible, and it was deemed
best to postpone the picnic until a
later date.

WithtoIds Comment.

WithEoIds Comment.
Secretary Lansing withheld COM
ment. AS soon as the complete Off
cial text of the German reply arrives
tomorrow he will begin careful
study of it and Monday or Tuesday go
to Cornish for conference with the
president. The president will then re-
turn to lay before the cabinet the
course upon which he has determined.
What action the United States will
take officials couldn't predict with GER
tainty. Some of those familiar with
the presidents point of view previous
ly, and with details Of the present sit
uation, pointed out that there seemed
TO be but one course open with dig
nifty and honor to the United States,
the continued assertion and exercise
Of the rights of neutrals on the high
seas in accordance with established
principles of international law.
Responsibility for Rupture.
The responsibility for any rupture
in the friendly relations which might
subsequently ensue between the
United States and Germany, it was
declared, would then fall upon the
Berlin government. There is yet no
definite clystalization of opinion
among the officials regarding details
but there is distinct tendency to-
ward the reiteration, not only in the
formal note, but in actual practice oi
the principles for which the United :
States has been contending.
Thoroughly Unsatisfactory. 7.
The unanimous verdict of high Off
cials is that the German reply is thor
oughly unsatisfactory and leaves the
situation exactly at the points it was
in days Immediately following the
sinking Of the Lusitania. While the
continued exercise of American rights
in the future are urged as a logical
course to be followed, it is recognized
also that the United States cannot
abandon the demands it made for dis
avowal of intent to drown Americans
and the question Of reparation.
"The Germans refusal on these
points may lead, it is believed. to
steps by the United States to show its
of the last note. Wheth-
er Ambassador Gerard might be re-
called was discussed in official circles
as well as among the dipomatists. In
the absence Of word from the presi-
dent, there is no definite indication
what might be done obtainable.
May Send Another Note. ,
Before taking any definite steps,
however, officials declared, the Ameri-
can government probably will send
note to Germany formally re-
jecting the proposal to permit the un-
restricted use of American passenger
ships or for the hostile merchantmen
under the American flag provided
hey carried no munitions of war. In
the same note the formal notification
probably will be given the German
government of the intention of the
United States to continue to exerclrc
is rights with the announced expecta-
ion that they be respected.
There is little disposition in official
quarters to hurry decision on the
question involved. There
S no denial in any quarter that the
general situation is fraught with
grave possibilities. On the law case
n the American position is held by
officials to be absolutely impregnable
because founded On we'll recognized,
principles by which nations have long
'een guided.

Grand Jollifcation
Over Victory

Twice during the last week New
ark has been treated to a display
or organized fun such as the old
town has seldom seen. The col
lege boys, last Friday night, in pre-
paration for the big Dickinson
game scheduled for Saturday,
turned out in force, headed by
their band and the freshmen in
costume. Practically all the towns
folk enjoyed the parade and thor
oughly appreciated the fun. Prizes
were awarded for the best CO.'S
tunes to /, E. E. Plumley, who car
ried a float representing a Ger
man submarine; 2, Henry Mars
ton, ballet dancer; and 8, the
Red Cross crew from the Sigma
Phi Epsilon Fraternity, who car
ried form labelled Dickinson on
shutter, temporarily turned into
a bier.
Following the parade a public
smoker was held in the Oratory.
City Solicitor Daniel o. Hastings,
of Wilmington, Professor Frank
B. Hills, Dean E. Laurence Smith,
Professor Harold E. Tiffany, and
Coach McAvoy made speeches, and
the college songs were sung.
On Monday the entire Freshman
class was detailed in squads to col
lect material for a huge bonfire to
be built on the D. c. Rose Field,
opposite the Women's College to
celebrate Saturdays victory. By
seven o'clock a huge pile of in
flammable material had been rails.
ed. Again the student body, this
time with a great blare of rec
lights paraded the town, singing
the college songs. AS they turned
the corner of Depot Road, at MAR
street, they broke into wild
hilarious snake dance. The boys
danced around the great pile, tht
band played, red lights burned
truly it was a jollifcation indeed
The effigy of Dickinson carried il
the parade was hoisted to the top
most point, gasoline poured owe,
the pile, and the torch handed t.
Captain Handy, of the football
team. With a blaze and a roar i
was off. In thirty minutes tn
huge conical pile had PRACTICAL,
disappeared. Short spec he
commencing the team and tn
student body for the support the,
had given them, were made b
Dean E. L. Smith, Professor C. A
McCue, and Coach McAvoy. Mem
bers of the team were hoisted O.

Faithful Old Horse Hurt

Belle, the thirty-two year old
horse, belonging to S. M. Donnell,
who after years of faithful SER
vice has been "pensioned" for the
last six years, was found early
Tuesday morning, caught in the
trestle on the "Y" on the Pomreoy
railroad leading to the American
Vulanized Fibre Mill siding.
The animal, unknown to it's owner,
had followed some colts from the
Donnell woods to the Reynolds
farm. Wandering again toward
home the horse struck the railroad
trestle. She had threaded her way
carefully for a distance Of fifteen
feet, evidently losing her footing
within three feet of solid ground.
George Moore discovered the ami
malls plight early in the morning.
Belle recognized the approaching
footsteps with a grateful whinny.
She was pried from her position
with rails and carried to level
ground. All the flesh had been
torn from one of her front legs
At present she is in the hands of
DR.. S. T. Young, veterinarian
found it necessary to end the ami
malls misery this morning.

for this year. Already a group of
young women are at work on the
project. The treat will be held in
the Opera House as last year, and
every effort be made to make it in
clude every child in the commun-
ity. The committee which has
undertaken this work met on Tues
day afternoon to plan for the occa-
sion. 1t was decided to give a

Women Students
Visit Textile Mills

On December 2 and 5 the Home
Economics students in the depart
ment of clothing at the Women's
College visited the Bancroft Mills
near Wilmington. This trip, which
is a required part of the work in
clothing, gives the students a de-
finite idea of the processes through
which the raw cotton must pass
before and after it is woven into
Goth. The trip included visit to
the spinning, weaving, dyeing,
and bleaching, and mercerizing
mills.

Prizes At State Corn Show

The Corn Growers Association
wishes to encourage larger num-
ber of farmers to make exhibits of
wheat, cowpeas, and soy beans.
Liberal premiums are offered for
these exhibits. Delaware is becom-
ing we'll known for her production
of cowpeas and soy beans. Tens
of thousands of bushels of cow
peas are grown annually. The soy
bean has within the past six years
become identified with our system
of farm practice. Many inquiries
come from other states each year
for crimson clover seed and soy
beans. Delaware is recognized as
the pioneer in the introduction of
the Wilson variety of soy bean
which has become so popular that
it is listed by the leading seeds
men.
An instructive and interesting
program will be given on the 9th
and 10th of December. Write to
the Secretary of the Delaware
Corn Growers Association, A. E.
Grantham, Newark, for full partic
ulars.

Rally Day EXERCISES held at the

School on November seventh,
were largely attended. A splendid
program consisting of special
choruses, and responsive readings,
was given by the school. A solo
was sung by Charlotte Hossinger,
and a trio by Katharine, Edna, and
Myrtle Holton. A pleasing fea-
ture of the program was the flag
exercises, given by Mrs. G N
Browns class, in which twelve
girls and four boys represented

Rural Mail Service
Still Snarled

Rural Delivery Service from
Newark remains still in the Burle-
son State of Efficiency. A repre-
sentative of the Department at
Washington, has been here look
ing over the wreck. His reported
remarks cannot be printed. The
disgust expressed was in keeping
with the opinion of everyone who
is at all acquainted with condi-
tions here. Ewing, the last driver
to attempt the impossible, has re-
signed. Two of the old drivers
have been put back.
The pile of unsorted mail in the
office will probably be delivered
sometime during the Wilson ad-
ministration. The surprising thing
of the whole episode is the pa
tience displayed by the patrons of
the office, suffering by the Burle-
son escapade.

The Continental Fibre Company

Success has surely been marked,
