Private of Co. X Receives Charge
in Arm While Preparing for
Hunting Trip

Glendale, N. D., Sept. 22.-Milton
Wilson, a member of Company X and
a son of Mr.. and Mrs. Jess Wilson,
whose home is about seven miles east
of this city, was accidentally shot
while starting on hunting trip. The
entire charge Of the gun entered the
right arm just above the elbow, ter
ribly decorating the upper arm.
Milton, in company with. Spencer
Crabtrec and Clark White, had been
hunting earlier in the morning, and
had returned to the house for some
reason. About 10:3O O'Clock the three
left the house to continue the hunt
they were riding in light spring wa
gon, and Milton was standing up in
the rig, with the butt of the gun, a
winchester pump, resting on the
floor OF the rig with the muzZle of
The weapon under his arm. There was
a shell in the barrel but young Will
son says the gun was not cooked.
When only few rods away from the
house it is supposed that the Earring
of the rig exploded the charge in the
barrel, which entered the arm just
below the right elbow. and continued
upward through the shoulder. The
muscular part Of the upper arm was
literally torn away.

woRDs! WORDS! WORDS!

His holiness, Pope Benedict, is q
statesman of too sound judgment to
find much consolation or hope of an
immediate peace acceptable to any
other than the central powers in the
carefully compiled combination Of
smooth diplomatic phrases which con-
stitute the replies of Germany and
Austria to his peace proposals.
There is nothing in either of these
messages which can possibly change
the status of the war, nor Americas
attitude in the. war. Germany and
Austria are ready to consider peace if
they can dictate the terms. Germany
naively suggests that after it has &C.
complished it's ends, it will consent to
disarmament, and suffer the submits
sion of any differences which may
arise in a Germanized world to a Ger
manized international court of arbitra-
ton.
Kaiser Wilhelm blandly notes the
Importance of freedom of the seas, in
order that German commerce may be
unhampered following the German
conquest. He says nothing of the res
toration of Belgium nor of reparation
to her people for wrongs done He
leaves open all of the questions really
vital to the consideration of peace
He CLOSES over with high sounding
words the fiexed claws which lie un-
derneath.
Nothing could better illustrate the
stupendous lack of understanding
which exists in the minds of the autoc.
racy as to the issues involved in this
war. Nothing could better prove the
utter contempt and absolute indiffer.
ence which Germany, in particular,
feels toward all claims of right, hui.
manity and justice, when weighed in
the scales against German world dom
nation
These notes will not mislead the
world. We doubt that they will make
any impression upon his holiness.
Mere words: cannot straighten out
the tangle in which German rapacity
and greed have enmeshed the central
powers
They must yet learn their lesson
through the bitter experience of a
numbing defeat.

Each one thought of different name
Yet all sang Annie Laurie.

This week l am pleased to report
that our judges have been holding
court and hearing arguments In two
or three cases every day. Next week
we purport to get down to work and
to give our decisions in several cases.
In the second Regents case | SUD-
nit the decision Though the judges
think different reasons they all ar
rive at the same conclusion. The
question was on whether or not there
was vacancy in the office held ny
two members of the board whose
term expired on the LIST day OF July,
1917. In the former case Justice
Grace and Justice Birdzell held that
there was then a vacancy and their
opinions were well and thoroughly
considered. Justice Robinson clear
" indicated that the members were
appointed to hold office for q detln'
ite term of years and when their
term expired it ended and there be.
came a vacancy. Hence, the second
decision was a foregone conclusion

this second suit only that the Office

their office that it Is hard for them

case decided some three months ago
A majority Of the judges held that
there had been a valid appointment OF
the five members of the board then
in office. Two members were ap
pointed to hold Office for two years
from the first day of July, 1915, and
under the plain words of the statute
their term of office expired on July
I, 1917. The governor has appoint
ed their successors who have duly
qualified, but the respondents claim
the right to hold over because the ap
pointment of their successors has
not been confirmed by the senate.
Under the statute the governor
may remove any member of the board
for incompetency, neglect of duty, i'm
morality, malfeasance In Office or 1ol
any other good cause, and In case

Boucher, 3 N. D. 1919 This decision

the Legislature nor the courts had
any disposition to. favor his appoint

the statute in question does not pro.
vide for definite and then an in
definite or defeasible term of Office.
The members are appointed and COM
missioned to hold office only for a
definite term and when that term
ends there is vacancy which the
governor may fill by appointment.
There is nothing to &c gained by a
prolonged discussion of the statute.

the respondents have nOSright to with

REMEMBER BELGIAN PRINCE.

We went to "ar with SPAN III 1898
rememberin% tie Maine.
Our men are going to war In 1917
rememberine the Lusitania.
It will be well for the civilians, who
will have charge of the peace making,
to remember the Belgian Prince.
The Germans have been guilty of
more brutalities, more horrors. more
outrages than known before in the en-
tire history of warfare, but even they
seem toshave outdone themselves in
their treatment of the British steam
ship Belgian Prince, at least one OF
whose crew was an American.
The steamer was shelled by a
U-boat, July 81, about 200 miles Off
Ireland. No one was injured. Every
one got safely to the life boats
Then the submarine came up and
her commander ordered the crew to
line up on the deck of the German
war vessel. Their life boats were de.
stroyed, their life belts taken away.
and the seamen were left standing
there while their captain was made
prisoner.
Before the unfortunate men could
realize the devilish plan of the Ger
mans, all the matches had been closed
and the submarine got under way.
When she attained good speed. she
suddenly submerged so as to leave
the sailors drowning like rats The
last thing they saw was the grinning,
sneering face of the U-boat command
err as he peered at them from his con.
ming tower.
It was a case of "spurlos versenkt,"
of attempting to sink ship without
leaving trace. 1t was the acme OF
German savagery and German ruth
,essness. Never before in warfare
have civilians been thus deliberately
done to death.
1t is with the kaiser and the gov
eminent that tolerate such crimes,
that condone them, that reward and
honor their perpetrators, that our dis
loyalists wish to make peace. There
can be no peace with such wild beasts.
They are the mad-dogs of the world
and must be treated like mad dogs.
And they are still in the ascendant
in Germany and likely to remain so
for 4. long time. President Wilson's
noble attempt to- distinguish between
the German government and the Ger
man people has apparently defeated
itself German newspapers, German
business mems associations, German
municipal organizations are vieing
with each other in sending messages
of loyalty and devotion to the head of
the Hohenzollern tribe.
Pefooled by their rulers, ignorant of
what the world thinks of them, de-
ceived as to the preparations America
is making to enter the war with power
and force, bemused by false stories Of
what the T-boat is doing to England
and Franco--the German people still
cling to their idols, still hold to their
dream of world power and endless loot
and indemnities.
All this being so, he who talks peace
to Americans is talking treachery to
us, to our allies, to the cause of de-
mocracy. There will be no time to
talk peace until the HOhenzOllerns are
down and the people up.
