NOT TAKING HAsTY ACTION.
Government Officials Keeping Close
Watch on Submarine Events.

Washington, March 27.-It was
authoritatively stated late to-day that
the President would communicate .he
situation fully to Congress before
taking any definite steps which might
lead to rupture of diplomatic reia-
tions as a result of the attacks on the
steamers Sussex and Englishman.
1t was stated authoritatively here
to-day that should it be shown that
German submarine attacked the Sus-
sex, Germany would disavow the act,
offer reparation, punish the subma-
rine commander and astisfy the Uni
ted States that the act was in viola
ton Of instructions.
1T was also stated authorita lively
that the German ambassador, Count
Won Bernstorff, was mainly RESPONSE
bic for the recent retirement of Grand
Admiral Won Tirpitz. who is under
stood to have been eliminated be-
cause OF his views on submarine WAR
fare after Count Won Bernstorff had
made certain recommendations to the
imperial chancellor, Won Bethrlamn-
'Hollweg.
Knowing these facts and the atti-
eooS Vi nIS l0u-
tonic officials are certain that If q
submarine was concerned in the Sus-
sex disaster the imperial government
will do everything in its power to
satisfy the United States.
1T was made clear, however, that
the German embassy believes a mine
damaged the channel steamer.
Talking Of Breaking Relations.
The possibility Of breaking Off dip
lonlatic relations with Germany Is
again being discussed as one Of the
eventualities which is expected to fol-
low If it Is shown that the steamers
Sussex and Englshman were victims
Of submarines.
Officials say they are examining all
the facts at hand with open minds,
and can come to no conclusion before
they have additional Information; but
there is an undercurrent Of uneasi-
ness over the possibility that German
|subnla rines have renewed their activi-
ties against passenger-carrying chips
in violation Of the assurances giveh to
the United States.
American consular officers and the
embassies in France and England are
being urged to gather evidence of a
definite and legal sort and when this
Is at hand President Wilson and Sec
retary Lansing will determine what
the next step will be. Meanwhile the
situation can only be described as q
waiting one.

CITY GOVERNMENT.

A year ago the city of Saltwater,
MIMI, was at standstill. The city
was the victim of a poor system of
government. Citizens took but a
small interest in city affairs. It was
practically impossible to secure eff
cient men for public office.
Today the city of Saltwater is one
of the best governed cities in Min
nesota and perhaps in the Northwest.
It has good system of government,
it has good officials, citizens are TAX
ing an interest in civic affairs and
the city is progressing.
A home rule charter was adopted
a. year ago. Under the new system,
politics are eliminated. There are
no districts or wards. Five bust
ness men have been elected as men,
bers of the council from the city at
large and they serve without COM
pensation.
The new administration after in
vestigating the business system of
Saltwater as operated under the old
charter, succeeded in reducing the
expenses of the city over $4,000 per
| annum. The city entered into a
new contract with the electric light
company and effected a saving Of over
$4,000 year to the users of electric
lights! The city has succeeded in
having the power company furnish
nearly three times as much for the
street lighting with no additional
cost to the city. The city has done
more paving of streets the past year
than has been done in the past ten
years. A park board has been ap-
pointed and it is identifying many
parts of the city. The city admin.
istration has succeeded in getting the
county commissioners to appropriate
a certain amount of their funds fol
the improvement of streets within the
city limits.
| Though the new government has
been in force but year, seven new
factories have been secured, employ.
ing from II to 80 men.
The new system of government has
accomplished wonders for the city on
the picturesque St. Croix.
| There has been much discussion
during the past year in regard tC
the city government in Bemidji. A
large number of the citizens and bust
ness men are of the opinion that the
present system of government should
be changed, that a new charter be
adopted.
The time is ripe for such STEP
we believe, and we urge that the
charter commission take steps to in
vestigate the Saltwater form of gov
eminent and other forms of govern
ment The commission should be-
come active and prepare new char
