The following stirring appe

The following stirring appeal was
made by Honorable g. p. Elmquist,
member Of the State Railroad and
Warehouse commission, at a loyalty
meeting in Litchfeld on Sept 8. It
brought tears to many who heard him.
While the appeal is directed mainly to
people of Scandinavian birth and
descent it applies equally well to all
other people of foreign. origin, as well
as to native born Americans, even
though their forefathers may have
come over in the Mayfower. The
appeal has been published in papers all
over the United States and has made a
great impression. 1t is as follows: /.

ago were fighting to tear the nation
asunder, can offer their blood and pro-
perty to save the country today he
said, sswhy shouldn't the people of the
north, and particularly the immigrants
from Scandinavian countries, battle to
save the nation? They came here to
improve their conditions, as N.Y. par
ents did, many Of them with their little
bundles Of clothes and wearing wooden
shoes, and they have improved their
opportunities here sabundantly.

that federal agents have boarded
boats at Baltimore and searched the
baggage OF passengers without war

These complaints have raised a
storm OF protests in Virginia and
North Carolina from people who car
ried no liquor with them. to say
nothing of those caught with the
goods. They vigorously objected to
having their satchels searched and
other baggage gone through in an
effort to find liquor. The storm
against this practice grew so strong
that President White Of the Rich

Gregory for ruling on the authori-
ty of the federal agents to search
baggage without warrants under the
provisions OF the Reed act. Mr..
Gregory promptly replied that the
federal agents had no authority to
make these searches without war
rants, and accordingly instructions
have been issued to that effect.

it was before the commencement of
