DOESN'T BELIEVE NOTE S7.
p is AT ALL. AUTHENTIC

George Sylvester Viereck, editor of
Viereck's Weekly, formerly the Father
land, has issued statement, in which he
doubts the genuineness of the alleged
note said to have been received by Count
Won Bernstorff from the German Secre-
tary for Foreign Affairs, and which is
now in the hands of the United States
government. .o, <
''The alleged letter of Alfred thinner
mann is obviously faxed" he says. 1T
is impossible to believe that the German
Foreign Secretary would place his name
to such document. The letter is un-
questionably brazen forgery planned
to stampede us. h.,
''The impudent hoax is made public
simultaneously. with frantic appeals to
enjoin the United States to enter the
war. If Germany were plotting against
us she would hardly adopt so clumsy a
method. She would hardly offer an
alliance based on such ludicrous pro-
positions as the conquest by Mexico of
American territory"

Honors Easily Bestowed.

You must 60 away from home to learn
the news. The Mankato Legder, re-
ferring to Brown county's new Judge of
Probate, says that Mr.. Mather is a well
known attorney of New Ulm. A st.
Paul paper says he is prominent grain
dealer and elevator owner, while the
Springfield Free Press insists that Mr..
Mather is the secretary of the New Ulm
Commercial Club. .... -.
For the edification of our exchanges it
might be well to put them right. Mr..
Mather is neither an attorney, a grain
dealer, or secretary of the Commercial
Club. Before becoming Judge of Pro-
bate he was book-keeper, was and still
is secretary Of the Brown County Re-
publican Committee.
The Gibbon Gazette brings the infor-
nation that Judge Mather is miller.
For man with diverse occupations. The
Review commends Mr.. Mather.

About Thut Note

Time will tell whether the note alleged
to have been sent by the German Secre-
tary for Foreign Affairs to Count Won
Bernstorf, while the latter Ambassador
was still in Washington, is genuine or
not. Sunday mornings papers printed
what purported to be dispatches from
Berlin, acknowledging the genuineness of
the letter. y -. ~
However, if the Original note was
the connection Of a fertile American
brain, there is no doubt but that the
Berlin dispatch was also a forgery.
Among those Congressman who evil
IDENTIFY had doubts in the matter were
Davis and Lindbergh of Minnesota, and
Senator La Toilette of Wisconsin. -.
In fighting the passage of a bill which
would bring the country to the very
verge of war with Germany, these men
were fully aware of the abuse of the lingo
press they were subjecting themselves to,
but they had the courage of their con-
victions and voted as they saw che light,
and for what they firmly believed to be
right. ~. = , :: -

Poll Tao For Women

An effort is being made by the Indiana
legislature to subject women, when they
shall have attained the status of electors,
to the payment of poll taxes, the same as
the men. When the bill was up for
passage a few days ago, sufficient num-
Der Of legislators, with becoming gallantry
were either absent, or mot voting
so that the bill lacked constitutional
majority. Perhaps, however, most men
would hesitate about assuming the bur-
den of paying a poll tax for himself as
well as for his wife.
The ultimate fate of the bill probably
lies in how many bachelors are members
of the Indiana legislature.

Ban On Unproduct5ue Advertising

The Mankato Commercial Club has
placed official stamp of disapproval on
all classes Of unproductive advertising,
and the members of that organization
have agreed to forego all publicity
schemes, combining their efforts along.
that line exclusively to the legitimate.
At meeting a few days ago Mankato
business men of that city, were out
spoken in their condemnation Of the
practice of certain organizations soliciting
advertising on programs, cards, etc.,
which bring no results to the advertised.
It was claimed that some of the organi-
cations used as a leverage on some of the
merchants by retaliating in the way of
refusing to trade with the business men
who refused to accept their ultimatum
to advertise as they dictated.
It was fully agreed among the mer-
chants at the meeting that newspaper
advertising is the most satisfactory of
all publicity, and the business man who
succumbs to the wiles of the solicitor
of other varieties soon exhausts his
annual advertising appropriation and is
thus deprived of his legitimate publicity.
Members of the Mankato organiza-
ton have as result of this and previous
meetings, decided to turn down all ad-
vertising solicitors, except for legit-
innate space in the newspapers, unless
the solicitors exhibit card from a
censor committee, which has been ap-
pointed to pass on all advertising
schemes. "a - =. "a E

ing the course taken by business men in
all lines of trade, andswho have studied
the advertising game for years, and
know how much money is wasted on
improbable advertising. r...: ~

De dispelled. After contriving and sad.
ding upon themselves, and uphold ne
regulations with respect to human rela-
tionships, there comes a time when UGH
generates reaction and revolutio n.
And, at present, we have here, a fine
antidote for the money-coining antics of
that bowling Deroish Billy Sunday, /
think. Sunday, of course, supplies a
demand. Without there being any de-
mand nor people to pay him for his
vituperations in the name of Jesus, he
would be unable to get the money or
any hearing. N
And it is gratifying to see that de-
mand has come for such revolutionary
ideas as shown in this magnificent
spectacle which Griffith spent two mill
ions to construct.
So the day seems to be dawning upon
which more people will discern that in
stead of condemnation and denuncia-
ton of those who differ from us, is about
to be relegated to the rear and more
wholesome and more sane concept is
to prevail with which the inherent de-
cency and kindly human spirit will
manifest unshackled and Unrestricted
