Germany Knows U. S. Attitude.

From the Pnlladelphla Ledger
The administration has spoken, and
spoken to the point. The German gov
ernment cannot have the slightest
doubt as to its meaning. In the con-
cluding words of the note which the
American amba at Berlin handed
to the German minister of foreign af-
fairs yesterday, it cannot expect "the
government of the United States to
omit any word or any act necessary to
the performance of it's sacred duty of
maintaining the rights of the United
States and it's citizens, and safeguard
ing their safe exercise and enjoyment.
This is not threat of war unless the
German government chooses to make it
such. The issue lies with Berlin. 1t is
held to a strict accountability" as the
administration promised it would be. 1t
must disclaim it's acts it must make
whatever reparation it can, it must
avow an intention of not repeating it's
offenSe. The alternative is not eXplic-
lily stated. but it is none the less OBJ
vious. Nor is the form of the note less
admira BILE than the substance. The
gravity of the situation created by the
series of acts beginning with the sink
ing of the Falaba and eliminating in
the sinking of the Lusitania is set
forth in restrained but fOrcib1e Ian
guage. The German government is left
in no doubt as to the Judgment of the
United States on the utterly indefensi
BILE nature of its conduct. which has
been observed with growing concern,
distress and amaZement

From the Cincinnati F.eie Presse.
The part of the note dealing with the

directed to London. England alone is

Admirable and Far-Reaching.
From the Chicago Journal.

The Presidents note is even a more
admirable and far-reaching document
than was indicated by the summary
sent out yesterday. 1t is particularly
admirable in that it makes the defense
Of American rights an occasion for up
holding the rights of humanity. 1t is a
solemn notification that engines of war
which violate the rights of neutrals and
the principles of humanity cannot be
used. no matter how handy some saber-
rattling power might find them.

believe in the Presidents tariff views
and in much of the legislation which
he has forced upon the country. But
when II comes to quetsion of the
nations honor-when the greatest of
all questions. that of peace or war. is
involved--the President must be up
held. The President has made griev-
Gus blunders in his controversy with
Mexico. On the other hand, he has
risen to every occasion in his diplo-

Admits of Solution.

From the Cincinnati Volksblatt.
The note is disappointing in that 1t
disregards the just complaints of Ger

of Great Britain. We think that the
difficulty admits of a satisfactory So
luton by advising American citizens
to travel on American vessels. Unwill-
ingly the President shelters British
cowardice, which tries to make British
ships immune to German attacks by
taking American passengers aboard.

From the Chicago News
Every one who reads the note should

"A Perfect Lady

Miss Rose Stahl will be the attrac-
ton at the Majestic Theater in Reno
Friday evening OF this week. The
Henry B. Harris estate is presenting
Miss Stahl this season III a new COM
edy entitled "A Perfect Lady" This
engagement will be the first appear
ance in Reno of Miss Stahl in her
rev character OF Lucille Higgins.
1t is by her unique talent for the
interpretation OF comedy lines and
situations that Miss Stahl is best
known among our p~lay-goers. She
has done many other parts during
her career, but her plays in receat
seasons have given particular play
t. her ability to win laughter. IN
adding Lucille Higgins to her other
famous creations. it is said she has
builded a character which maintains
the high standards set by her work
il the past. There is great oppor-
tunity in the new part for character
work and at the same time there are
scenes which give the star an oppor-
tunity to win the hearts OF her audi
cnce.
~ Perfect Lady was written by
Claiming Pollock and Rennold Vol,
1t is in four acts and tells the story
OF how three members of a Hy-by-
night burlesque troupe decide to set
tie in the little town Of Sycamore,
Kansas. In order to pay their way
they determine to inoculate the
t~ownspeop1e with the tango craze,
which had not yet reached so far
west. The complications which en-
sue are lively, laugh-provoking and
interesting. The character study If
the people of the small community is
said to be particularly true to lie.
|"A Perfect Lady" is, in fact, 4 dram
atization OF the tango craze. 1t
serves well its purpose OF providing
Miss Stahl with an excellent charac-
ter and the playgoers with a pleas
ant, laughter-filled evening. -.
The Harris estate has surround
ed Miss Stahl with an excellent COM
2any OF players, including Frank
Geamish, Beatrice Noyes. Raymond
