conclusions are from the German,

many is now an enemy ofsthe United
States, which means that she is your
enemy, my enemy, our enemy. When
the status -of our relations with a
foreign country is once fixed as that
of war, then the time for argument
has ceased and there is no longer
any room for controversy between
citizens upon that question. The
question for the time being is
to say, during the tendency of the
warts a closed and not an open one,
and for the sake Of your peace of
mind, as well as in justice to yourself
as an American citizen who does not
desire his loyalty questioned or to

nently impaired, you should respect,
obey and support the mandate of your
country in the spirit of true and de-

Commenting on Senator Nelson's
amendment to the; food bill now pend
ing in congress, authorizing the presi-
dent to close grain exchanges in case
future trading injuriously affects
prices, the st. Paul Pioneer Press,
very properly maintains that the can
did thing for the, senator to do is to
determine whether trading in futures
serves a few spectators, or whether
it serves the consuming public. If it
is merely an institution maintained in
behalf Of private fortunes for a few
and empty purses for the many then
the future" business should be per-
manently ended. A practice hostile to
the public interest is no more right
eous in peace time than in war time.
Is the food oligarchy to be good only
when there is a kaiser amuck in the
offing?

ABSOLUTELY UNTRUE.

The fact is, the tonnage tax bill was
a "spite bill" promoted by the liquor
interests to "get even" with the Du-
luth members Of the legislature for
voting for temperance measures.
Fairmont Sentinel. .H
Fiddlesticks! Every senator from
the Twin Cities, with the exception Of
Senator VIM. A. Campbell of Minneap-
oils, voted against the tonnage tax
bill, and Mr.. Campbell is and always
has been a radical temperance advo-
cate. The authors Of the bill in the
house-H. O. Bjorge and C. H. War
ner-were and are strong temperance
men. The Sentinel's allegations are
totally devoid of foundation.

There may be new socialist party
in America, the present organization
having, by it's pro-German and I'M
American attitude Disguised several
distinguished members of the organ
ization, as we'll as workers in the
ranks. Some time ago Charles Ed
ward Russell and William English
Walling denounced the course of the
party, and more recently John Spargo
washed his hands of the outfit. Mr..
Spargo has been identified with the
party since it's formation, and has held
the highest positions within the gift
of it's members. He still clings to the
principles, but cannot stomach the
Kaiser leanings Of those in charge.
And now, Allan Benson, the party s
candidate for president at the last
election, says he will be one of the
insurgents unless the anti-conscrip-
ton resolution adopted at St. Louis is
repudiated. A housekeeping is all
that can save the present organiza-
tion

Herbert Hoover plans to handle the
food supply Of the country by series
of great corporations backed by the
government. Each corporation may,
if it seems desirable, corner the entire
supply Of the particular commodity
with which it is formed to deal. This
makes possible new kind of embargo.
There is good reason to believe that
certain pro-German neutrals are sup
plying Germany with everything they
can spare, and these countries will be
politely informed that our supplies are
too limited to permit Of shipments to
them. :

WHY Not Utilize the Fish?

The writer has been trying for some
time past to secure permission from
the powers that be for people in the
vicinity Of Mile Laos lake to do a
little commercial fishing. Mile Laos
is fairly alive with fish that are going
to waste, while thousands of people
are hungry for fish. Vance Chapman,
the wide-awake St. Paul newspaper
correspondent, has this to say on the
fish question in his weekly letter:
3This year the State Board of Con-
troll will invest better than $3.50, 100000
in meat for the 10000 or more depen-
dents in it's charge. Of this amount,
about $24,000.00 will go to pay for
fish, and the ludicrous feature of it all
is that the greater part Of the latter
figure will go to the rich eastern fish
concerns. With 10000 or more lakes
in the state fairly teeming with the
finny tribe eastern purchases seem
ridiculous, but it is true just the same:
excepting that those close in say the
fish trust is responsible. Backed by a
law which prohibits commercial fish
ing from any lake stocked by the state
the supply of food fish is kept down to
the minimum and purchases Of eastern
and Canadian supplies are made COM
pulsory. The state sanatorium for
tuberculosis is located on the shores of
Leech lake, which,, according to ex-
perts, is so full Of food fish that they
practically are living off each other,
yet the institution cannot buy pound
of this fshy product. S. F. Fullerton,
who probably knows more about Min
nesota fish and Minnesota fish condi-
tons than any other person in the
state, says that the fish trust is re-
sponsible for the situation. Together
with Carlos Avery, State Game and
Fish commissioner, he has put the
matter up to the State Safety Com
mission and advised more liberal
Interpretation of the state fish laws.
They advised the sale of fish from
Minnesota lakes under certain restric-
lions. They say that if the lakes of
the state would be thrown open to the
people that much Of the high cost Of
living would be solved. Because of
the present fish laws, which in nearly
every case favor the trust, fish are
nearly as high in cost as meat. These
mems claim has some substantiation
when it is known that crappies, fish
common to nearly every lake in. the
state, retail in the twin cities as high
as 25 cents pound" .-

young man Of German descent. Such
maudlin sentimentality is nauseating.

in the border states, brother fought

son, and fought bravely, too. The

stand up for America, no matter
where he or his parents were born, is

DEPORT THE INGRATES.

-. II. DIDO Oh minneapolis voices Jne
sentiments of liberty-loving, law
abiding American citizens, in a letter
to the Tribune, in which he pays his re-
spects to those ungrateful, presump-
tuous foreigners, who fled from power
ty and oppression in Europe and found
an asylum in this country, and now,
that they have been fed and fattened,
revile our country and it's institutions,
refuse to conform to our laws and OPP
emily counsel treason and sedition.
Mr.. Bibb's remedy is too mild. Every
last one Of the Iungrateful, disloyal
trife-breeding foreigners : should : be
placed aboard cattle-ships, deported to
the land from whence they came, and
never again be permitted to pollute
American soil. -
We quote from Mr.. Bibb's letter:
"Shall we permit a lot Of foreigners
to stain the name of our city, or shall
we take steps to place them where
they, and all others who would kick
the hand that fed them, should be
placed?
GAS an American citizen I want to
register my protest against foreigners
coming over to this country and par
taking of our liberty and bounty, and
when time Of peril comes turn their
back on the government. To be sure
it is but the reaping Of the wind where
we sowed the whirlwind, in SOLDERING
over certain class Of foreigners who
come over here to us from European
countries with their narrowing tales
Of persecution. We are getting just
what's coming to us, but it's coming so
thick and fast just now that something
ought. to be done to equalize it.
"Here is my remedy. There is an in
stitution in Saltwater where there is
permanent peace and where conscrip-
ton does not break through to rob the
inmates of their scruples against fight
ing for their country. This country
has no use for this tribe of rebels in
leo -
time of peace, to say nothing Of a
crisis when mems very souls are tried
as by fire. ----...-..
"Again, as an American citizen,
I am weary at heart and sick at soul
at our permitting such foreigners as
have found it necessary. to escape
from other countries coming over here
to America and butting in on how this
government should be managed, and
refusing to play in our water barrel
unless it contains just the kind Of
water that suits them. This is the
time and the place to convince this
tribe that just so long as they care: to
obey the laws Americans have laid
down, so long they can. enjoy the
blessings afforded any one, in this
country, but their services as law
makers and dictators as to the adj
ministrationz of. our laws are not
needed"
