The German reply to President
Wilson's note protesting against the
slaughter of American citizens legi-
timate]y travelling on the high seas
is extremely disappointing as none Of
the real issues are met. The Ameri-
can note was plainly worded, and
did not call for an evasive answer.
This nation merely demanded that
it's citizens be unmolested while law
fully engaged, and that is certainly
not unreasonable. The imperial gov
eminent utterly failed to guarantee
such safety, and the situation now
stands practically where it did at
the time the Lusitania was tor
pedoed and sunk. While it is to be
hoped that the United States won't
he forced into the war, the entire
world should be given to understand
once and for all time that this nation
will not meekly stand by while its
rights are being trampled under foot.

The mining companies operating
at Hibbing lave refused to pay their
taxes, and that prodigal municipality
may be financially embarrassed for a
time. The constitutionality of the
law created two years ago which pro-
vides that mining property be as
sessed at so per cent of it's valuation
while all other properties are as
sessed less, will be tested in the
courts. Hibbing has enjoyed a
princely income the past few years,
and the fact that 95 per cent of it
came out of the Golfers of mine own
ers did not lessen the Joy of those in
charge of the expenditures in the
least. The citizens have displayed
positive genius in collecting money
from the mining companies and pa
triotically using it to make that vii
lage desirable place of abode, and
even now are not at a loss as to how
to proceed. There is talk of having
holders of Village warrants enjoin
the companies from operating on
the grounds that the taxes are a
lien on the ore nrOnerties and that
the companies in operating are max
ing away with the security for the
lien. It will be rather interesting
to watch the. developments arising
from this latest move on the part of
the mine owners. -.

A town that never has anything
to do in the way Of public amuse-
ment is in the cemetery Anybody
who will do nothing for his town is
helping dig the grave. A man who
will knock his town is furnishing the
coffin. The one so selfish as to have
no time from his BUSINESS to give to
city affairs is making the shroud.
The merchant who never advertises
is driving the hearse. The man who
is always bowling hard times is
preaching the funeral service. And
thus the town lies buried. free from

NOTICE TO ALIENS.

There are in Phillips county a
large number of aliens who drove
across country from Canada and did
not come through a Port of entry,
and were not examined by an officer
of the immigration Department.
This examination consists of
mental and a physical examination,
and satisfactory evidence that the
alien will not be probable state or
county charge.
In case the alien entered the Unit
ed States prior to 1913 the husband
or head of the family only need be
examined, but all those who entered
since 1912 the entire family, includ-
ing wife and children must take the
examination.
Unless this examination is had an
alien cannot acquire full citizenship
nor make final proof on Government
land.
The nearest Port of Entry to this
locality is Havre, Mont, and the
cost of a journey to that city fol
the purpose of taking the examina.
ton and securing a certificate OF
entry is about $1,000.
To accommodate those who must
take this examination and to save
them the cost of trip to Havre we
have arranged for the Immigrant
Inspector to be in Malta December
18th, 1915.
And we urge upon all who did
not cross the line from Canada at q
Port Of Entry to take advantage OF
this date, and in case you arrived in
the United States since 1912, bring
the whole family.
c. M. PORTER,
Clerk of the District Court.

18th, 1915.
