Baxter Sparks climbed to the top

GOV. GORNVELL ON
DUTY OF GERMANS
Must Fight Same AS Native
Born He Tells Natural
lied Citizens.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, July IL
When a person of German birth be-
comes a naturalized American citizen,
he becomes amenable to the laws of
his adopted country, is entitled to the
protection of those laws and at the
same time the country is entitledto his
services, to fight for it II necessary
the same as native.born citizen.
That is the answer of Governor Corn
we'll to George Sylvester Viereek, edi-
tor of Viereck's Weekly, formerly the
Fatherland, which has instituted q
campaign for optional service Of Ger
man.Americans in the military service
of the nation. To spare German'Amer-
leans 1.-THE horror Of fratricide" is the
Viereck plan and opinions were sought
from public men Of the nation.
Ina current issue the replies are pub
lished and they show a unanimity OF
thought among the state executives
Governor Burnquist, of Minnesota
Governor Cats, Of Florida and Gov
emo. Osborn, of Michigan, expressing
opinions substantially the same as
Governor Cornwell Of West Virginia,
The latter in his letter to Editor Vie
reck said:
az realize the unfortunate situation
in which American citizens of German
birth find themselves because of the
war, but 1t seems to me that when a
German became a naturalized citizen
of this country, he at once was amen
able to all the laws of the country;
whether in peace or in war, and that
the same duty devolves upon him to
protect this country and fight for it, ii
necessary, that deyolves upon a native
born citizen. My father and two Of his
brothers fought in the Confederate
army, while his Oldest brother was in
the Union army, and his first cousin
who was as close to him as brother
was an officer under Farragut in the
Union navy. None Of them were draft
ed into the service. but were fighting
for their convictions and their states
as we'll as their country.

ton and with all our American citizens
of German birth. do not believe that
il is either practicable or right to
make any concessions or discrimtna'
tions as between citizens of this coun'
try, whether native or naturali2ed."
Governor Osborn, OF Michigan, ex'
pressed practically similar opinion
when he said:
Perhaps you have forgotten that in
the Civil war in this country brother
fought brother, families were divided.
It was all justified by the great princi'
Pile involved. There is an even great
er principle served in this war, and
furthermore l really believe that all
worthy Americans of German ancestry
are eager to right the wrongs Of Ger
many and the world"

Work Is progressing rapidly on the
big grain elevator which is being con-
structed for Arch Fleming on Parks
avenue The excavation for the foun-
dation is completed and the concrete
has been put in place for part Of the
foundation wall. The excavation was
made to an average depth Of about fit
teen feet and in one place the trench
had to be dug to a depth Of almost
twenty-five feet before foundation
was encountered sufficiently solid to
build upon. Sand, cement and gravel
we're unloaded on Parks avenue and
the concrete mixing machine was sta
toned there while long wooden
trough or chute was constructed from
the machine down the, steep hillside
to the site of the building far below
and through this trough the concrete is
conveyed. 1t will take only a short
time to complete the concrete founda-
ton and the brick work will probably
begin within a few days.
