WILSON SENDS REPLY:
WILL HOLD GERMANY
TO PROMISES IN NOTE,

Washington. May 10-Following 10
the text Of the note cabled by Score
tary Lansing to Ambassador Gerard
ut Berlin with instructions to deliver
It to the German minister of foreign
Affairs.
"The note Of the Imperial German
government under date Of May 4, 1915,
has received careful consideration by
the government Of the United States.
It is especially noted a. indicating the
purpose Of the Imperial German gov
ernment as to the future, that 1t Ii
prepared to do it's utmost to confine the
operation Of the war for the rest Of its
duration to the fighting forces Of the
belligerents, and that 1t is determined
to impose upon all its commanders at
sea the limitations of the recognized
rules of international law upon which
the government Of the United States
has insisted.
Guided by Friendship.
Throughout the months which have
elapsed since the Imperial government
announced on February 4, 1915, its
submarine policy, now happily aban-
dored, the government Of the United
States has been constantly guided and
restrained by motives of friendship in
its patient efforts to bring to an amic-
able settlement the critical questions
arising from that policy.
Accepting the Imperial govern
ment's declaration Of It's abandonment
of the policy which has so seriously
menaced the good relations between
the two countries, the government Of
the United States will rely on a scru-
pulous execution hencsforth of the
now altered policy Of the Imperial gov
ernment, as such as will remove the
principal danger to an interruption Of
the good relations existing between the
United States and Germany.
New Policy Made Clear.
THE government of the United
States feels it necessary to state that
It takes it for granted that the I'm
perial German government does not
intend to imply that the maintenance
Of it's newly announced policy 10 in
any way contingent upon the course or

DEFENDERS OF THE FLAG.
How the CoIored Troops Fought In
Battle of Port Hudson.

How the coIored Troops Fought In
Battle of Port Hudson.
Under the heading. THE Reason
Why" ]. P. Prickett. writing of the
valor Of the cOlOred soldiers just be-
fore the assault on Port Hudson, says:
'The assault on Port Hudson was
pending. 1t was to test the fitness of
the colored race for freedom. The
white colonel Of the colored regiment
called the colored standard bearer to
him and implored him not to dishonor
the flag and bring reproach upon his
race by being recreant to duty. This
lowly representative Of despised peo-
pie replied, 'I'll bring these colors back
with honor or report to God the reason
Why"
The above is followed by q poem,
which In part is as follows:
There. like ebon statues in the starlight
stood the black brigade,
A adown the ranks the colonel gtrode
and walking, silent prayed;
Prayed that God might fill with patriot
zeal each darkened soul and light
In each lowly breast bright pathway to
freedoms new birthright;
That these newborn sons Of freedom. In
whose swelling hearts and breasts
Burned the memories Of centuries Of
bondage and Of wrong,
IN the morrow's dreadful slaughter might
a. heroes bear the tests,
IN their races vindication might be brave
and true and strong.
0nsr vondor In tha rnoonli1ht doafad mt
the stars and bars.
Here tho black brigade In silence stood
beneath the stripes and stars
Over there were trained artilrrymen asleep
by silent guns;
Here were loyal hearts in swelling breasts
Of freedoms newborn sons,
Raised from chattelhood to manhood by
the stroke Of patriot pen,
wond' 'ringly and sometimes doubling loyal
hearts looked on to see
II these slaves and serfs and chattels. lift
ed to the plane of men,
In the shock of strife and battle won
their right to liberty.
'Yes. I'll bring it back in honor. bear 1t
bravely in the right
Or beyond the mystic river tell to God the
reason why
Twas a horrid day of slaughter. and the
crash of shot and shell
Told that men were bravely battling for
the cause they loved so well.
A shout, a cheer wild assault-and then
the stripes and stars
F1oated proudly from the ramparts where
had waved the stars and bars.
Bravely fought the dusky black brigade;
in blood had rent the chains:
Chains Of slavery from fettered race
and where in blood they'd trod
Lay In death the color bearer. His lifes
blood the banner stains.
All, beyond the silent river he's reportinr
now to God.

NEWSPAPER MEN INDICTED.

NEWSPAPER MEN INDICTED.
The recent grand jury of Hennepin
county returned indictments against
the staff of The Twin City Reporter,
legal newspaper for placing scam
dalous news in the hands of news
boys.-Several sensational articles
have been published in The Reporter
which might have been true or partly
true, because there have been no law
suits or indictments for criminal libel
This indictment, brought under an old
statute. may be used more for the pro-
lection of private individuals and in
timidation of publishers, than for the
morals of newsboys. The Reporter
is subject to Federal investigation, as
second class mail matter, and it ap-
pears that the officials have not made
case against it. We have had our
grievances with The Reporter, but do
not see why this grand jury should
act on the question of "Scandalous
news" unless their action was re-
quested by some person interested in
the premises. Does the grand jury
intend to intimidate the press, or do
they intend to make Editor Guilford
drink his "cup of hemlock" for cor
rupting the youth (?) or for expos
ing the private life of big individuals?
The result is important to all news
paper publishers.

ROOSEVELT ON THE WILSON
ULTIMATUM."
"They Don't Ultimate" He says.

New York, May l0.-"I haven't any
interest in ultimatums that fail to ulti-
mate" remarked Colonel Roosevelt
today, commenting on the Wilson re-
ioinder to the German submarine con-
cessions.
"The latest Wilson note is up to
his usual standard" he continued
whether they apply to Villa, Obre-
gon, Carranza or the German empire,
! don't care for ultimatums that don't
ultimate. Is it peculiar that we
adopt one standard toward Hayti be-
cause it is small and another towards
Mexico, because it is bigger. 1t is
ipdefensible."
