Like Civil War copperheads.

I'VE had his type in the civil war
Then they called them copperheads.
These men used all the fine words and
the same arguments as La Folette, GER
tain congressman and editors and
sham philanthopists make now"
The colonel brought this phase of his
address, which was comparatively
short. to a conclusion by expressing re-
gret that it was impossible to send
the object of his criticism to the Ger
man lines.
8. Il wish we could make him a gift to
the kaiser for use in his reichstag. In
the Senate he is a cause for shame and
humiliation o every worthy American.
In urging that Americans bend every
energy to prosecuting the war to a
successful conclusion, he stated that it
should not be a dollar war or a "po-
. tato war" but one of fighting men, and
il was only through them that the ma
. tion could hope to win.
Referring to the divided allegiance
/. Of certain foreign-bo born Americans, the
colonel maintained that I'VE have the
right to demand that every German
American stand shoulder to shoulder
with his fellow Americans against the
bloody tyranny of the PrussianiZed au-
tocracy of Germany.
"In this country the events Of the last
three years will teach US much IL we

COUNTY AGENT HELPS
FARMER MANY WAYS

Experience in county agent and farm
bureau work indicates that it is highly
important to make definite plans and
do definite work. Results are outstand-
ing when certain projects having to do
with the primary agricultural projects
Of country are persistently followed
up. At the same time, every county
agent knows that he must be ready
and resourceful to meet new questions
and requests at any time. There are
the main issues Of the definite program
and the miscellaneous requests Of an
immediate nature always to be thought
Of. Neither should overshadow the
other.
The happy combination Of concen-
rations and adaptability necessary is
well illustrated in the work Of County
Agent J. v. Bopp Of Otter Tail county
in January. In January Mr.. Bopp
gave primary attention to cow-testing
association work. At all meetings held
in the month he discussed the value Of
the testing work based on the local
results being secured. Several new
members were secured for the three
cowtesting associations in successful
| operation in the county. Feeding
rations were prepared for members
and comparisons made between the RAJ
lions used in the different associations.
These comparisons and conclusions are
being furnished to the members s3

because the country needs such live
stock, and because they will be worth
more next spring than they are today.
To aid farmers in Northwest Min,
nesota in keeping their livestock. the
state food committee suggests:
The cutting Of all hay possible.
The saving Of corn fodder, sto-
yer and straw.
The use Of fall pastures.
The feeding Of root crops.
The purchase Of hay and straw
from other parts Of the state.
The utmost care to avoid waste
in feeding. Il;
Even the borrowing of money
with which to buy feed. If neces-
sary.
Pressure is being brought to bear
on bankers. merchants, railroads and
commercial interests to assist the
farmers in solving the problem OF
bringing livestock and forage together
for the saving of breeding stock, that
the livestock industry Of the North
west may not suffer a catastrophe.

The Submarine Toll.

1t may have been only q chance, or
again it may have been highly signifi-
cant, that yesterday but one steamer
was reported sunk by submarine in
the war zone, the lowest toll of destruc-
ton since the new campaign began on
the 1st of February. The suggestiveness
Of this minimum is heightened by the
fact that there has been a gradual dimi-
mutton of sinkings for week past. This
may be due to the scarcity of ships at
sea, or to the greater efficiency of the
British sea control, possibly to the de-
struction of German submarines. On
this last point the British admiralty re-
mains, as from the beginning Of sub
marine warfare, silent. Nobody knows
how many undersea craft have been
| sunk by British vessels, yet it is known
that many Of them have been de-
stroyed and some have been cap
tured. 1t is quite probable that some
of the large fleet of undersea boats let
loose by Germany on the eve of Febru-
airy have been sunk or captured. Still

Out of Germany.

Ambassador Gerard has reached Swiss
territory, and thus the direct represen-
tation of the United States in Germany
is at an end. While no particular stock
was taken in the reports that Germany
intended to hold the ambassador and
his compatriots in Berlin as hostages,
nevertheless it is with a certain sense
of relief that it is learned that the
party has gained neutral soil on the way
home. 1t now appears that the propo-
sition, which was actually entertained
in Berlin, to hold Mr.. Gerard and the
other Americans as hostages was in
spired by incorrect reports that reached
Germany to the effect that the United
States had seized the interned ships and
their crews. These reports were based
upon certain proceedings which may
have suggested such a course For in
stance, the seizure of the Kronprinzes-
sin Cecelie at Boston might have ap-
peared like confscation, when in point
of fact it was a measure of precaution
ordered by the court to prevent the de-
struction of property in litigation. AS
soon as Berlin learned that the United
States had not eonfscated the ships and
had no intention of doing SO while the
two countries were not at war, the pass
ports that had been withheld were grant
ed and facilities were afforded for the
departure of the Americans Thus hap

Untimely Pacifist Demonstrations

Peace meetings are being held in vari
GUS cities and largo delegation rep
resenting meeting held in New York
is now in Washington to urge the avoid.
| ance of war upon the President. These
meetings are interesting manifestations
of strong and generally wholesome
sentiment against armed conflict. But
they are calculated to obscure to some
| extent the issue now before the coun-
try, or rather between this country and
Germany, and in that sense they are
not at all helpful in the way of solving
the present problem.
Pacifsm does not aid at a crisis
like this. The President of the United
States is probably as stanch a
pacifst in the best sense as there is
today in the United States. He was re-
elected to his office largely on the SEN
timent "he kept us out of war" It is
known that in this crisis he is moving
with the greatest care and caution to
avoid precipitating conflict with Ger
many, and is DESTROYS that if a break
should come it shall be on the initiative
of the other power.
To send delegations to him and to
hold mass meetings expressive of alb
horrence of war is supererogatory. The
President needs no admonition as to the
perils of warfare or the abhorrent ma
ture of armed conflict. He needs no
urging to cause him to take the con-
sentative course in weighing causes and
affronts and indictments as reasons for
hostilities. If he were impulsive, hot
tempered, disposed to challenge Ger
many and to take fighting offense at the
least affront, it might be proper and
suitable and effective to admonish him,
as these meetings and delegations are
now doing, to go slowly or to compro-
mise.
But the United States cannot now
withdraw from its established position
without complete loss Of prestige as
a world power and without deep sense
of humiliation at home. No number of
mass meetings in the name of pacifsm
can justify lessening of the demand
that Germany respect implicitly the
principles of humanity and interna-
tional law which have been laid down
in the American notes to her, and on the
terms Of the last of which diplomatic
relations have now been severed because
of Germany's violation of pledge.
