said, by reason of the present circum-

have been treated as prisoners of war.
After the rupture of relations with
the United States, news reached Ger
many that German ships had been
seized and their crews interned. That
news gave rise to the idea that 1t
might be prudent not to liberate the
American sailors until official inform
alton was received as to the real sit

o COMMUNICATION Q
{"

Considerable noise has been made in
Devils Lake and surrounding country
about Nick Kitseh having bought $10,-
600 worth Of Liberty Bonds, and the
matter was heralded through the col
umns Of the Journal, and many peo-
pie have gotten the idea that Mr..
Nj. Kitsch has purchased bonds, but
such is not the case. Nj. Kitsch, al
though he came to Ramsey county
with practically no means, and living
under the Stars and Stripes, and hay-
ing the protection of the best Govern
ment in the World, has amassed a for
tune and today is reconed among the
wealthiest men in this section of the
state. Only recently this same gen.
tleman ordered fifteen empty cars to
use in shipping out a part of the crop
he raised this year, and which will
bring him in the neighborhood of $780,
600 to $4,000, and the further fact
that he has thousands of dollars loan
ed out on first mortgage loans, and
yet when this government under which
he has prospered and become rich,
needs his help by a loan drawing four
per cent, he has nothing to loan. In
the matter of the recent Liberty Loan,
our people responded nobly, business
men, clerks, and laboring men nearly
all did their part, and to think that
such men as Mr.. Kitsch neglected and
refused to purchase a dollars worth
o liberty Bonds, is just a good rea-
son why many people are hoping and
wishing that Uncle Sam get busy and
conscript a portion of the property
that such fellows as Nick Kitsch has
acquired.
Yours truly,

H R sKIRMISH.

The Germans, who have lately under the dnllmashrs direction turned all
their hatebatrerieE upon US, are chucklng because in the first brush between
Americans and German troops they killed three, wounded four and captured
twelve of our men
Let them chuche. They had better do their chuckling nowfor there will be
nothing for them to chuckle over when u armies get down to business, back
ed by every last man, woman and child at home.
For the first time in this war, " e have lost men in open battle. 1t is an
experience W must steel ourselves to grow used to. If the a lasts as long
as it now bids fair to do, there will not be a community in the land without
its stricken families. That has been the fate of all Europe; it will be our
fate, too. Europe has met it bravey, and so shall we. These mn Of ours
who fall arr dying not only for their country and for the world, but for the
highest cause that men ever fought for-wodd liberty and world peace.
Oour lei have fought the Germans and, enormously outnumbered, they
have met with disaster; but that they fought bravey, a Americans are ex-
pecte do do, and they made the Huns pay the full price for their brief little
victory. It i a victory that Germany and the Germans shall pay most dear
1y for before this world of agony is over.

To the Editor of the Devils Lake
World.
Dear Sir:
What has the city of Devils Lake
been guilty of that it should have in
ficted on it the Devils Lake Journal
and its publisher Colonel" Bloom.
We are accustomed to an undue pro-
portion of unbalanced, unsound and
vicious editorial and personal COM
ment with our evening news and have
no doubt, like the human body, de-
veloped a certain resistance and inn
munity to fair sized doses Of this poi
son by reason of its regular daily adj
ministration.
It occurs to me, however, that the
editorial appearing in the Devils Lake
Journal under date of November 7th,
1917, entitled "The New York Eec-
ton" is such an overdose as to result
in the nauseatiAg of Colonel" Blooms
hardest subscriber.
Loyalty is cemmendable, we sup
pose, wherever exhibited and the gen.
ial Colonel, who must be an au-
thority on the art of keeping, So
called, judging from his frequent re-
ferences to the "kept press, etc., etc.
as wei las a fouut of knowledge about
graft" in view of his constant impu-
tations and accusations against others,
no doubt shows the right spirit in ex-
hibiting a commendable loyalty to his
"keepers"-the Democratic party and
the Non-partisan League.
But isn't it going a little far to re-
fer to Theodore Roosevelt, an express
ident of the United States and a man
whose standing and motives are un-
questioned even by the bitterest of his
political opponents. Il refer to those
who are burdened with an average
quantity of bratns); to Elihu Root, an
e~x-secretary of state, one Of the most
distinguished Americans living-so
much so that he was recently chosen
by the present ultra-partisan admins
tration to head the mission to Russia;
to Charles E. Hughes, an ex-justice of
the Supreme Court and candidate for
the presidency Of the United States; as
"Shoot Mouthed Patriots" and "Grand
standing blatherskites."
Worse yet to attempt to justify his
position, to quote Charles F. Murphy,
the leader of Tammany Hall and the
type of all that is worst in American
public and political life even though
Mr.. Murphy is a power in one of the
parties by whose favor the Colonel
received one of his lucrative appoint
ments, strikes me as carrying even
the virtue of loyalty too for.
Fortunately we are as the Colonel

LAKOTA FIFTH.

The fact that Lakota should stand fifth of the cities and villages Of Nelson
County in subscription to the Liberty Loan when it is the largest and oldest
town in the county and is the county seat, had assessable property in 1916 Of
$262O00 while n of the other towns had more than $4,000 assessable
property the anne year, would indicate that there is something rotten out
side of Denmark Examining the schedules we find that the bank in lakota
Of which U. S Senator A. J.. Gronna is president, turned in subscriptions for
only $500 while the other bank secured S2sA00. Further, by examining
the files Of the Lakoa american" 90 of which this same Gronna is owner,
we find that in three issues just preceding the closing of the loan there was
not one editorial reference to the loan; but we did find that these issues con-
tanned inAat1ments Of speech Gronna had made in the Senate in opposition to
the loan. We are further informed that he made n o attempt openly to sup
port Of efforts who were trying to give aid to America and the boys at the
front by securing subscriptions. What he did in the dark we have o means
of knowing, except as indicated by his bank and his newspaper.
Lakota has a great many loyal Americans and as fine citizens rs art found
anywhere, but with the load of such a Heading" citizen it is wonder that it
ranks $4,000 short of it's quota and fifth in the county-McVile Journal.
