ever after devoted worshiper at the
shrine of the cross, joining the

character withal, and her memory
will live long to bless the descend
ants and the community with whom
she walked and shed her kindness.

GERMANS TORPEDO A LINER

from the United States, Secretary of
State Lansing used the following lam
guage referring to violation Of Ameri-
can rights.
This friendship itself prompts the
United States government to say to
the imperial German government that
repetition by the commanders of
German naval vessels of acts in con-
prevention of those rights must be
regarded by the government of the
United States, when they affect
American citizens, as deliberately un-
friendly"
What the course of the United
States would be, no official would pre-
dict, because of the absence of de-
tailed information. 1t must be estab-
lished authoratively whether any
warning was given or whether the
vessel attempted to escape. If no
American lives were lost it was
thought in most quarters that drastic
steps were improbable, but in the
event it is found Americans were
drowned, rupture in diplomatic rela-
lions was everywhere discussed as
likely.
Wilson was startled by the news.
He spent the entire afternoon and
evening trying to get detailed infor-
nation. Though obviously worried, he
took the position that the govern
ment's Judgment would be withheld
until official details were received.

Shock at Washington

Washington, Aug. 19.-News of the
torpedoing of the Arabic with Ameri-
can citizens aboard came as a shock
to government officials who had hoped
since the dispatch of the last Amerl-
can note there would be no further
aggravations of the already tense sit
uation between the United States and
Germany.
While it was recognized that a
congress of survivors might reveal
that no American lives were lost, the
torpedoing without warning of yes
sci carrying Americans had in itself
been pronounced by the United States
government as direct violation of it's
rights which, if repeated, would be
regarded as deliberately unfriendly."
In the last note to Germany which
it was generally accepted was the final
word on the principles of the question

CAN'T GET "MAkINS"
IN JAMESTOWN NOW

Jamestown, Aug. ia more strict
enforcement of the North Dakota anti
cigarette law is being effected through
the activity of Enforcement League
Officer F. l.. Watkins and as result
of the officers activity at James,
town, a local tobacconist was fined $40
and costs, amounting to $3.50, for vio-
lation of the law. Following a visit to
this city of Officer Watkins, one Tony
Schmidt purchased two packages of a
much-advertised brand of cigarettes,
some tobacco and papers and then
turned same over to Sheriff Dana
Wright, who swore out the complaint.
The dealer pleaded guilty and paid
the fine and costs.
1t was stated that no sale had been
made to any minor, although the law
does not permit sale, manufacture or
giving away of any cigarettes or Gig
arctic papers to anyone within the
state. Penalty for violation is a fine
of not less than $40 nor more than
$50 or Imprisonment in the county
Jail for not more than 80 days, or
both fine and Imprisonment. The law
was passed by the 1913 legislature.
The case will act as a warning to
all tobacco and pool hall dealers and
violations of the state law should
cease.

IN BARLEY MARKETING

ST. Paul Dispatch, Aug. 10: The St.
Paul grain exchange today received
word that the first car of barley from
North Dakota had been shipped to the
exchange by D. A. McCready, Of Cuba,
Barnes county, who stated in his letter
that it gave him great pleasure to
know that the first car of grain
shipped from his section was coming
to the st. Paul exchange.
Mr.. McCready stated that the yield
was fair and the quality good, but did
not give the exact yield an acre. The
barley market is unsteady, SO it will be
impossible to state the price until the
grain has been sold.
The St. Paul exchange has received
its first car of winter wheat. It was
shipped by Thomas E. Byrns, of Ma
pleton, graded No. 8 hard and sold for
$1.16 bushel Several samples Of
barley were received at the exchange
today and it is expected that the ship
ments will arrive within few days.
