Simultaneously with the crisis in our
relations with Mexico a japanese M

declares that Japan would view a

The Japanese nation sincerely hopes tina

Among the last official acts Of the re-
cent Secretary of War. Mr.. Garrison.
was to appear before the Senate Com

on this occasion he took tho oppor-

plates in the ground in this city, one in
the old court house yard and the other
near the river bank on the premises of
Sheriff Charles Atkinson.
These plates agree one calling for 1872
feet and the other for 1913 feet above sea
level for the land. The river survey calls
for about forty feet lower than the plates
which is the average height of the river
banks at Pembina.

the whole length of the Red river and

. The German answer to the charge
that submarines are lnhuman is that it
is not more inhuman than stopping food
supplies by England and that the free
passage Of munitions Of war with which
the Allies will kill German soldiers is
just as inhuman in the final result.
The answer to the former claim is
made by Germany itself in that it claims
to have plenty Of food in spite of the
English blockade. The answer to the
latter is that Germany had provided it's
munitions of war before the war and
that in any event the present munitions
sent across the seas are to be used.

claims Of humanity.
While it is true that England has ar.
bitraily taken American and other neut.

sengers from such ships contrary to the
usage of international law, yet there is,
this great difference, these things can
be condoned with money and are sub.

is mostly property question while IN
the other case it is death to the innocent.

War is wrong Itself and it is pretty hard
to make right out of wrong in anyway.

great interest at this time. The individ.
