D. w. Lawler is lined up with F. B.
Lynch but previous to the just recent
reconciliations, Lawler wrote a letter
to the president. If the statements
were true then, there must still be
some truth in them as yet. The letter
runs:
GIN writing this communication I
freely admit that I am largely actual
ed by political hostility to F. B.
Lynch. Mr.. Lynch and his brother be.
long to the freebooters of politics.
Neither of them has ever appeared
upon public platform during a
campaign as an exponent of democrat.
ic ideas, and for this reason neither
of them will ever be embarrassed by
any igno,11iny brought upon the party
by this appointment. If the president
desires proof of the utter selishness
Of both the Lynches and Of their
treachery to the national ticket dur
ing the last campaign in Minnesota, !

management of the senatorial con-

ing to Respect Rules If Not
Violated by Great Britain.

Washington, March Count 10
ham Won Bernstorh, the German am.
Ibassad'or, at the instruction of his gov.
!ernment has handed to Secretary Of
State Robert Lansing a long memo.
;randum explaining in detail the Ger.
man position in regard to armed mer.
chant ships and the causes leading
up to the decision of the central Eu.
ropean powers to torpedo without
warning all armed merchantmen Of
their enemies.
It is understood to contain the allie.
cation that Great Britain had taken
advantage Of the contention of the
united States that Americans must
be safe on defensively armed mer.
!chantmen, to have those ships act Of.
fensively toward enemy submersibles.
No Provisions for U-Boats.
The German government, it is un.
derstood. comedies that as submarines
are new engine Of warfare, interna-
tional law as at present constituted
makes no provision for their use.
The German government is under
stood to express a willingness to oper-
ate it's submarines in accordance with
international law prevailing prior to
the wa, provided Great Britain does
not violate the same laws.
Reiterates Declarations.
The memorandum also is understood
to reiterate the previous declarations
that submarine warfare was begun by
Germany in reprisal for the announced
intention of Great Britain to starve
the civilian population of the Central
empires.
The memorandum also is understood
to refer to the long standing friend
ship between the United States and
Germany and to express the hope that
the American people will, when f..
miliar with the explanations offered.
fully appreciate the position in which
Germany finds itself as result Of the
blockade.
Claims Reprfsais Justified.
BY way Of supporting the conten-
tion that Germany's reprisals are jus.
titled, the memorandum is said to
,enumerate various actions of Great
Britain which have operated against
the interests Of neutrals and their citi-
,Zens. These are cited TO show that
Great Britain has violated interna-
,tional law.
TO sustain the German contentious,
It is pointed out that Germany agreed
to abide by certain terms of the dec
laration of London, but inasmuch az
Great Britain has not restrained it's
actions to conform with the terms of
that declaration, Germany cannot be
expected to agree to operate under a
code which Great Britain disregards.

Catholic priest, the Methodist minis

ster, druggist, garage owner, a
banker, the saloonkeeper, a hardware
merchant and housepainter.
They differed in religion, in politics,
in income, in social status about as
widely as men can differ. But in the
common school building, in the free
democracy Of the social center, they
agreed to lay aside their differences
for the novel purpose Of discovering
how much good fellowship there was
in meeting together, now and then, as
equals, as brothers.
In the democracy Of play, in the
democracy of rank, fair discussion. OF
public questions, they are finding out,
these differing men Of Belleville, that,
as human beings, they are amazingly
alike once you get below the surface.
And out of this agreeable discovery
will come, for Belleville, more toler-
ance, more kindliness of feeling, more
give and take than it has ever known
before. Even when they shall differ
again-as, of course they often will
