past week, several bad storms for this
time of the year, after having such
long and cold winter.
The Twin Villages had U. S. mail
twice from Cresco the past week and
four times by the way of Harmony,

pie should remember that during the
past storms, east and west roads were
but little affected, while north and
south roads were filled with snow.
Harmony route is mostly east and
west; Cresco No. 2, north and south.
The reason for infrequent delivery is

WILSON IS
UNDECIDED
Situation Is BeC0rl-
ing More Crave
Fifteen LIVES LOST
Ssamen Perish When VIgl|an-
ella Is Sunk.

Washington, March 20.-President
Wilson is expected within the next
forty-eight hours to indicate definitely
that he believes virtual state Of war
exists between the United States and
Germany.
News received from Plymouth that
fifteen men, some Of them Americans,
had been drowned when the American
merchantmen Vigilancia was sunk
without warning by German subma'
rine, added, II possible, to the already
grave view of the situation held here
as a result of the destruction of the
vigilancia, the Illinois and the City of
Memphis.
Whether the president will hasten
the extra session of congress, already
called for April 16, or will take addi'
tional steps to protect American CON-
merce without this move, was not dis
closed.
No official pretended to know his
plans and the general view was that
he still is considering the question in
his usual deliberate way.
It generally is conceded that already
a virtual state of war exists with Ger.
many, in spite of the technical armed
neutrality status Of the United States.
A suggestion advanced was that the
president might issue call for con-
.gress to meet within ten days and in
his proclamo ton point out the new
situation facing the nation since he
asked for authority to establish a
state of armed neutrality.

ARMY HEADS ARE ACTIVE
Quietly Making Preparations In the
Event Of War.

Event Of War.
Washington, March 2O.-On the sur
face the war department Is taking no
steps toward making ready for war.
The facts are, however, that very
complete plans for rehabilitation of
the guard have been made to procure
promptly enough additional officers to
organize a force Of 500. 900 volunteers.
No move to call out such an army
can be made, however, without con-
gressional authorization.
Recruiting for the regular army still
Is making good progress. Reports
given out show that thirteen districts
obtained more men during February
than they were required to enlist tc
I'LL their quota fixed by the depart
ment.
