ModernlzIns the Roundup.

Each year seems to give the auto.
mobile a new hold on life. The war
brought 1t to the forefront in a new
field. The soldier of the present day
seldom makes long forced marches
like Sherman's march to the sea. He
travels by motor car. AS a result, the
automobile casualty list is tremen-
deus; the average life of a car in the
battle lines is estimated at thirty days.
But 1t is not only the war zone that
has lost part of its picturesqueness
through the use Of the automobile,
the latter has begun to rob the an
nual cattle roundup of some of its
thrills by replacing the horse. This
year has e the ubiquitous car with
a cowboy at its wheel on our western
prairies discouraging the cattle from
attempts to escape from the ever-nar-
rowing circle in the roundup. Many a
steer which has given a COW horse a
run must feel Disconnected when It
bucks up against the four-wheeled
steed.-Wall Street Journal.

Washington, July 13.-Considera-
ton of the German reply to the Ameri-
a note on submarine warfare over
Swallowed all else in the work Of
State Department officials. Secretary
Lansing spent most of his time pre-
pairing data and opinions for the next
communication to be sent to Germany
and he indicated that very probably
he would not go to Cornish, N. H., but
that President Wilson would return
here at the end of the week.
The situation was described in Off
cial quarters as critical, and there was
no concealment of the fact hat rela-
tons between Germany and the
United States had become more
strained than at any time in their
history. High officials said the pol
Icy OF the American government would
be carefully worked out and that in
order to meet the situation fairly the
utmost deliberation was required.
This information was given out in
order that a delay of possibly a week
or more in preparing an answer might
not be misinterpreted as meaning that
the United States intended in any way
to recede from the position it had
taken in the two notes already sent to
Berlin.
There was much informal discussion
among officials of the contents of the
German reply. The trend of their
opinion vas that the evasion of the
American argument in the German
notes had narrowed the field of nego-
tiation so that the next communica-
ton from the United States must state
to some extent the intentions of the
Washington government in case its
rights are further violated, and de-
clare the position it will take with
reference to Germany's refusal to dis
avow the sinking Of the Lusitania.
Officials gave the impression that
there would be no further argument
on the principles involved; that the
note would be very brief, and state a
general policy, which the American
government intends to follow with re-
spect to violations that already have
occurred or shall take place in the wal
zone. M
In German quarters here h situa-
ton is not viewed as critical.

 Arrangements to complete the schedule of the local squad are r2p- iIly being advanced, and it, is expect ed that within the next few days o. ficial announcement will be nA@de, and the locaI fans will have the op- pCljunity to make plans for support ing ta local players.
 There 2re twenty candidates for the regular squad this year, and some or the old boys are in the number, enough of them to assure Coach Bas- tt that lie will have some steady. experienced heads on the field at all times. Thnee squads are working daily. but the scrubs are not Tn sui ficiently good form to give the olgsel fellows the proper sort of Work.

He is worried, however. ever the quarter back position, al- though there are strong possibilities that these worries will be removed within the week, if the boys who are tryjna for that position continue to show progress in advancement
