Peace Not Near
Kellogg Warns
In Maiden Speech
Gigantic Loan Only Beginning
of Sacrifice United States
Must Make.

The entrance of the United
States into the European war
does not mean peace soon, Frank
B. Kellogg, junior senator from
Minnesota, warned the Senate
Tuesday in his maiden speech.
Loan just A Beginning.
Germany's great strength
coupled with the weakness of
Russia causes Senator Kellogg
to hold this view. In saying he
would vote for the loan to the
Allies, the senator expressed the
belief that war cost is only a
beginning to what must follow.
sI voted for the resolution de-
claring a state of war and auth
orizing it's prosecution" he said.
II said nothing upon that reso-
luton, and I did not vote for it
lightly, however, but after the
most careful consideration. For
those who differed with me |
make no charge of disloyalty.
Treaties Violated.
'In passing I wish to say that
| believe we had the most just
ifiable grounds. Our treaties,
which had been in existence for
more than 100 years, had been
ruthlessly violated; the path
ways Of the ocean had been
closed, and our ships had been
destroyed.
"But if our injuries had beer
confined to that, and even con-
fined to the plotting of diplomat
ic agents and hired spies in this
country, or to melting to war
our neighbors with whom we
are at peace, l might have said
that we could wait until after
this great conflict had passed
and settle the damages with
GERMANY.

Germany Made War.

Germany made war upon
American territory, American
ships, and ruthlessly by govern
ment order destroyed American
lives.
eve cannot barter American
lives for German gold, or hawk
American honor in the mailed
markets Of Europe"
On the subject Of supporting
the Allies Mr.. Kellogg said:
81 do not share the opinion
that the Central empires, the
greatest military power the
world has ever seen, are ex-
hausted.

Little Waste, He Says.

'Their territory still is in
tact. Remember, they have fl
nanced the war by borrowing
the money from their own peo-
pie. Their farms and their ter
ritory have not been laid waste.
"To the east is Russia; and,
while | do not wish to discuss
before the Senate anything
which would be indicate in our
relations with foreign countries,
| believe that the only hope OF
Russia in this war is the grea+
heart of democracy.

Far From Perfection.

eve must remember that no
perfect democracy springs in a
day from absolute imperial pow
er.
"But the Russian army today,
if | am correctly informed, is
weaker than any day since the
beginning of the war. We also
must remember that France, up
on the west, has been straining
every nerve and employing ev-
CIV man and using all her re-
sources to carry on this mighty
conflict.

GOVERNORS PROCLAMATION

Governor Frazier has issued a proclamation calling on the people of the
state to plant grain and produce tt every available acre in the state and
has designated April, May and June as the greatest gran-plantng months
in the history of the state.
The proclamation follows:
"Whereas, the United States government reports show that the yield of
winter wheat in the United States is fifty million bushels short of the win
ter wheat yield of 1916, and
"Whereas, the United States government reports show that the field of
spring wheat in the states of Nebraska and Kansas is nearly a total fail
|ure, and .
"Whereas, the President of the United States and the Department of
Agriculture of the United States have called upon the State of North Dako-
ia, asking that the problem of feeding the people of these United States be
given primary consideration by the State of North Dakota, and reching that
the peoples of the cities Of the United States are relying upon the people of
North Dakota for the grain out of which to make their bread, and
believing, that if peace should come this year the grain of North Da-
koa will be needed to relieve not only the starving noncombatants and
those fighting side by side with the United States, but also the people who
m 10 classed Is our enemies,
THEREFORE,, l. Lynn J. Frazier, Governor of the State of North Da-
koa, do hereby cal. upon the people of this great state to loyalty do their
duty to their country and to their fenowmen in the months of effort and
strife before u.s.. 1 particularly call upon them to PLANT GRAIN AND
OTHER PRODUCE ON EVERY AVAILABLE ACRE within the boundaries
of North Dakota, that ~ State, to the limit off its capacity may help feed
the armies of var and the ven greater armies of peace. BY s doing you
will show your high spirit of patriotism. l have an abiding faith in the de-
vohon of ur people and absolute confidence that their response will be
prompt energetic and effective. AS a necessary initiative step towards obtain
ing the greatest results, I recommend that the months of April, May and
June of this year be dedicated as the greatest grain producing months in u
history. In the emergency before III. let every man, woman and child in
our State, thus show their loyalty and patriotism to Our Country and to
our FeIowmen"

A LA BILLY SUNDAY

Under the heading "Hit the Trail" the Merchants Journal of Topeka,
Kansas, gives the following choice bit of literature a ian imaginary talk
by Billy Sunday"
"Wen, you slab-sided lobster, S % you're trying to rn a store with a ss-
tenn of rotten bookkeeping which would be a disgrace to a Chinese chop

look around you, and SCI what intelligent men are doing? Why don't you
know something about your business-if you ire going to try to be a bust
ness man? The fact is, there are about nine out of every ten men who are
running stores who ought to be driving a bus O. acting as chnopodist in a
blacksmith shop, and you may be M of them.
"You may be of those idiots who thinks that success in business
means skinning your local competitor. You may be one of those shoot

prices, sneaks up behind and stabs him in the back, and walks across the
street to avoid talking to him. Why you miserable hyphenated apostle of
Benedict Arnold and Judas Iscariot, don't you know that such a policy will
get your everlasting shrspangled goat? Isn't it possible to pound enough
sense into your marble-top skull to make you realize that you merchants in

LET NORTH DAKOTA DO HER PART.

North Dakota always important in the nations food production will this
year have a larger part to play than usual. Director Cooper when question
ed in regard to the food situation a brought out at the St. Louis meeting,
sale that tn partial failure of the winter wheat crop, the worlds short
age the small surplus, and the wasteful handling of food products in war
time means that the Northwest will have to produce more than a normal
crop IN order to overcome a possible deficiency. Labor will be of the
limiting factors Sc that every effort should be made to make each DAVIS work
count. This mean preparing a good seed bed, selecting good seed, treating
it, keeping machinery in good condition, in short keeping everything at it's
maximum OF efficiency, 20 that a maximum return may be looked for for the
labor expended. 1t is also important that livestock production be kept up,
that cheap feeds be used as far as possible in livestock production. Good
pasture for pigs will reduce the amount of grain required to produce gains.
A field OF cornlf or the pigs to hog down provides the best fattening food and
with a minimum of labor. Such roughage as alfalfa and clover will reduce
the amount of grain needed by livestock to produce growth and good pro
ducton. Breeding stock should be maintained.
Dr. Laid, who has just returned from the St. Louis meeting. when
questioned Is to conditions stated that as a member of the Naval Consulting
Board, he had been pretty we'll informed on the food situation but even at
tina did 10 realize that it is as serious as became apparent when reports
If conditions in the various sections and countries wereb brought before the
meeting: 1t is a time when it becomes the patriotic duty of everyone to put
forth every effort in increasing production.

The Duty of
German Americans
(From a Speech by Otto H.
Kahn of New York;

A century and a half ago
Americans of English birth rose
to free this country from the
oppression of the rules. of Eng
land. Today Americans of Ger
man birth are called upon to
rise, together with their fellow
citizens of all races, to free not
only this country but the whole
world from the oppression of
the rulers of Germany, an OPP
preston far less capable of be-
ing endured and of far graver
import.
Speaking as one born in Ger
many of German parents, l do
not hesitate to state it is my
deep conviction that the great
est service men of German birth
or antecedents can render to the
country of their origin is to pro-
claim and to stand up for those
great and fine ideals and ma
tional qualities and traditions
which they inherited from their
ancestors, and to set their faces
like flint against the monstrous
doctrines and acts of rulership
which has robbed them of the
Germany they loved and in
which they took just pride, the
Germany which had the good
will, respect and admiration of
the entire world.
| do not hesitate to state it as
my solemn conviction that the
more Enthusiastically and whole
heartedly Americans of German
origin throw themselves into the
struggle which this country has
entered in order to rescue Ger
many, no less than America and
the rest of the world from those
sinister forces that are, in Presi-
dent Wilson's language, the enc
my of all mankind, the better
they protect and serve the re-
pute of the old German name
and the true advantage of the
German people.
Gentlemen, | measure my
words. They are borne out all
too emphatically by the hideous
eloquence of deeds which have
appalled, the conscience of the
civilized world. They are borne
out by numberless expressions,
written and spoken, of German
professors employed by the state
to teach it's youth.
