The commission from the United
States has already arrived in Rus
STA, making the trip across the Pa
cific. The news of their departure
was not published. The commission
is headed by Elihu Root and other
members are John II. Mott, Cyrus H.
Mccormick, Samuel r. Bertron, Jas.
Duncan and Charles Edward Russell,
the great writer. The mission is apt
to be of great assistance in bringing
Russia out Of her present chaotic CON
dition. The affairs in Russia appear
to be much better this week. The new
minister of war, Kerensky, is young
man full of enthusiasm who can sway
the masses at will. The government
has secured better control Of the army
and it is reported that preparations
are being made for great Russian
Roumanian offensive. This would re-
lieve the condition along the west
line, where Hindenburg has poured in
million and half Of fresh troops
In the west, the situation remains
about the same. The Germans have
halted the great drive of the Allies and
trenches fall into the hands of the
Germans one day only to be retaken
by the Allies the next.

Seventy-three young men register
ed at Burlington Tuesday and not one
claimed exemptions from military
duty. This is record Of which Bur
lington should feel proud. This was
the spirit shown in nearly every place
thruout the county. In Minot num-
Der of exemptions were claimed, some
Of which were probably justifiable.
One big husky fellow, however, claim
ed that his heart is weak and that he
is not strong enough to carry gun.
He appeared capable of packing" an
OK. Another claimed an exemption for
the reason that he preferred to die in
the United States. A third said that
his conscience prevented him from
taking another's life, even in case of
war. you'll be about the first to ger
shot," the Registrar remarked. There
was no organized effort in the city to
discourage registering and the day
passed quietly.

MAN-AMERICAN LOYALTY.

RMAN-AMERICAN LOYALTY.
C. Kotzenabe in Paterson's Maya
zine: My emotions tell me one thing
at this awful time, but my reason tells
me another. AS German by birth it
is horrible calamity that l may have
to fight Germans. That is natural,
is it not son? But as an American by
preference | can see no other course
open.
For % years Germany has shown
dislike for the United States-the
Samoan affair, the Hongkong contre-
temps, the Manila bay incident, the
unguarded words of the kaiser him
versy in 1914. And it has not been
from mere commercial or diplomatic
friction 1t is because their ideals Of
government are absolutely opposite.
One or the other must go down. 1t is
for us to say which it shall be.
Because of my birth and feelings
beyond my control have no particu-
lar love for the French and less for
the British. But by a strange irony of
fate see those nations giving their
blood for the principles which hold
dear, against the wrong principles of
people individually love. 1t is very
unhappy paradox, but one cannot es-
cape. ] do not want to see the Allies
triumph over the land Of my birth
But very much want to see the tri-
umph of the ideas they fight for.
1t sickens my soul to think of this
nation going forth to help destroy
people, many of whom are bound to
me by ties of blood and friendship
But it must be so. 1t is like dread
full Surgical operation. The militar-
istic, undemocratic demon which rules
Germany must be cast out. 1t is fol
us to do it--now. have tried to tel
myself that it is not our affair, that we
should have contented ourselves with
measures of defense and armed neu.
trality. But know that is not so
The mailed fist has been shaken under
our nose before. If Prussianism tri-
umphs in this war the fist will con-
tinue to Shake. We shall be in real
peril and those ideas for which Sc
much of the worlds best blood has
been spilled through the centuries
will be in danger of extinction. II
seems to me common sense that we be-
gin our defense by immediate attack
when the demon is occupied and when
we can command assistance.
There is much talk of what people
like me will do, and fear Of the n.y.
phen. No such thing exists. The
German-American is as staunch as the
American of adoption Of any other
land and perhaps more SO. Let us
make war upon Germany, not from
revenge, not to uphold her splitting
bubbles Of international law. But
let US make war with our whole heart
and with all our strength because
Germany worships one God and we an.
other and because the lion and the
lamb cannot lie down together. One
or the other must perish.
Let us make war upon the Germany

This war has done one thing, and
that is to bring the United States and
Japan to closer understanding. This
tugaboo about the impending war
between these two countries appears
to have passed. Japanese and Ameri-
can warships are working together in
fighting the submarines. These two
great nations now have a common
cause and are on the friendliest terms,
despite the California trouble. Mont
aville Flowers will have to post up on
a new lecture and give us something

Secretary of State Tom Hall is do
ing a good job in going after the
owners of cars who have failed to Sc
cure license tags. All over the state
cars minus tags are being tied up.
The mere fact that licenses have been
applied for will not do. To date ST.
900 tags have been issued, about H.
900 more than last year. Statistics
show that last year only about 65 per-
cent of the cars owned in the state
were registered and the expectations
are that this year between $4,000 and
10000 cars will be licensed.

The women of North Dakota, as the
Independent predicted they would
some weeks ago, are coming right to
the front to take the places of the
men who will be called to the colors
In many instances they are doing ex-
actly the same kind of work that the
men have been doing, work that a few
years ago no one thot woman cap
able of doing. For instance, a crew
of women engine wipers has been
started to work in the Northern Pa
cifc round house at Mandan. With
comely foreladies in charge, the other
engine wipers will have to be real
gentlemanly. The master mechanic
states that the N. P. will use all the
woman assistants in their shops that
can be secured. Women are employed
in the round house at Dickinson and
ten are employed in the one at Glen
dive, Mont. The freight department
is securing women as fast as they
can get them for checkers in the
freight department. Women are re-
placing men on the farms, in Offices
and in many other places and in most
cases they are doing the work fully as
we'll. The women are doing noble
work during our country's most trying
period.

A German official, commenting on
Americas entrance into the war,
states that the United States will
come out of the conflict stronger than
ever. In night, this official says, the
United States will have built up it's
army, navy and merchant marine to
size as great as any in the world,
and instead Of arousing the suspic-
ions of Japan and the other Allies, we
have really secured their assistance.
The officer appears to think that the
U. S. went into this war solely for
gain, but in this he will learn that he
is badly mistaken.

Those who have hoped to escape
military duty by taking up their res
idence in Canada and the Canadians
who have come to the United States
for the same purpose, will find that
their efforts have been for naught.
BY an agreement, aliens in the two
countries may be conscripted for mill
tary service and this undoubtedly will
be done. For weeks before registra-
tion day, it is claimed that a good
many Americans crossed the line at
Portal into Canada. Canada, which
has already furnished half million
troops, will soon begin raising an army
of another half million, this time by
CONSUMPTION. In this way, the prov
ince Of Quebec, which has fallen away
below its quota, will have. to do its
share.

suffered for the lack of noisture and
many of the fields Of winter rye suf-
fered great deal. As winter rye
constitutes about fourth Of the en-
tire crop thruout the northwest, this
is going to cut down the yield consid-
erably. In many places rye has start
ed to head and in such fields, the crop
will be short. There is still chance
for fair rye crop, growers tell US,
providing the weather is ideal from
now on. The Independent hears that
in the vicinity of Glenburn some of
the fields of rye have been plowed
under to be sown to oats or barley.
The wheat, while short, is of excel
lent color, and well rooted. The
wheat crop has not been damaged in
the least. On account of the lack of
moisture, most Of the oats and barley
has not yet come up, bat the rains of
this week will bring this crop forward
The rain will be good for breaking
and considerable new ground will be
broken yet this month and seeded to
fax. There is still an opportunity for
a splendid crop generally.

SIDE LIGHTS ON THE LIBERTY

Financial World: John d. Rookie.
Teller has subscribed to third lot OF
Liberty Loan bonds. If he keeps on
he will pretty soon catch up with his
income
Thos. A. Edison is working 20 hours
a day on inventions which he is giving
without money or price to his Govern
ment and he also found time this week
to induce 1000 Of his employees to
subscribe to the Loan.
Children's Savings Banks in public
schools are subscribing their pennies
to the Liberty Loan and many $50
subscriptions are being obtained
thereby. Are YOUR children's pen
MES and savings going into the Liber-
ty Loan?
"Billy" Sundays inspiring slogan
for the Liberty Loan campaign is
Farm, Finance or Fight" That is,
either grow something and help to
keep the nation and it's armies and
navy fed, put up your money for Lib
erty bonds and keep Uncle Sam on the
move for victory or shoulder musket.
You cannot shirk all three. Which
shall it be?
The women in New York city have
taken the places of bond statesmen in
New York stores and are selling Lib
erty bonds. Good scheme; should be
adopted everywhere. The men are
needed elsewhere.
If you are director or officer of a
bank. corporation Of partner in
any business it is your duty, nay,
your proud privilege, to push through
resolution pledging all the surplus
resources of your business you can
possibly spare to the purchase of
Liberty bonds.

President Wilson has subscribed to
$4,000 Liberty Loan bonds and calls
it "modest" contribution.
Clubs of so employees are being or

each week by each member subscribing

The answer to Germany's sneering
reference to us as "nation of shop
keepers" without any patriotic in
stincts that can see beyond the dol
lar mark should be an overwhelming
oversubscription to the Liberty Loan.

Upon the attitude Of the citizens Of Honolulu
toward the suggestion OF community effort to Sc
cure this legislation will depend very largely the
further efforts Of the few who have launched the
