and without friends. We sponged on
all that America had, her free lands,
her free schools, and above all, her
spirit of open hearted comradeship
She owes us nothing but she gave us
all. We swore allegiance to her nag,
her constitution and her laws. We
would be recreants, ingrates, perjurers
and ours if in the hour Of her need we
counselled with her enemies and were
dsloyal to her cause"
When President Wilson's reply to
Pope Benedict first appeared it was
hailed as document of extraordinary
merit, but as the days have passed
and it's sentiments have been borne in
upon the worlds consciousness it has
assumed still larger proportions until
it has come to be regarded as one or
the greatest Of state papers. 1t would
be well if copy could be placed in
the hands Of every soldier and every
civilian in order that it might be read
and re-read until all Americans thor
oughly understood what this nation is
battling for and why we must con-
tinue to battle with all the human en-
ergy and the material strength that
we possess until the object Of the war
is attained.
Since September 1, children under
IA years Of age cannot be employed
in any manufacturing establishment
wnere the products Of the establish
Iaent are sold in interstate commerce,
and children between the ages of IA
and 16 can be employed only eight
hours in any working day, and only
six days a week, and not before a. nj.
or after p. m. This is the new Fed
eral child labor law, the salient points
of which were outlined as given above
by District Attorney M. A. Hildreth,
who is preparing to strictly enforce
the provisions Of the act in North Da-
kOta.
An itinerant peddler was taken into
custody last Thursday night near
York by Sheriff James Taylor. He is
suspected of having left some poison
ed oats at the Carnahan farm near
Leeds the day previous Two Of Mr..
Murphy's horses, on this farm, died
suddenly when fed from the bin
where the man is thought to have put
the oats. Two other horses became
very sick, but were attended by vet
Urinary in time to save them. He had
been trying to trade the oats at other
farms but was refused. Whether any
criminal intent attaches to the act can
not yet be definitely determined, but
suspicion points strongly against him.
In a recent issue Of the Nonpartisan

The anti-prohibition forces are now
flooding the country with literature
setting forth that the closing Of the
breweries and shortage Of refuse
therefrom, formerly used as cattle
feed is responsible for the high cost
of beef. Maybe this is true to GER
tain extent, but it is likewise true that
when total prohibition comes the fell

whiskey will have money to buy a sir
loin steak once in while, even If it
does cost the price of sevral drinks.

 HURT WAR WORK
"Look to Armies at Front' Painleve Tells U. $.
 Congressman.

Paris, Nov. 15-We1coming the vis- iting congressman from the United States to France in behalf of the na- ton, Wednesday, President Poincare spoke of the cordial relations be- tween the two countries and asked the congressman to convey hisr expects to President Wilson. The party then visited the chamber of deputies where Speaker Deschanel received them. He told the Americans the ministerial crisis here was kind of family affair and did not affect Frances attitude toward the war, and assured them that ''the soul of the nation is in the armies ir the feld." He asked them not to look to the politicians, but to the deeds of the men at the front, saying that the present upheava1 was purely in a de- sire to accelerate the carrying on o1 the war.
 Congressman Hicks of New York in a brief reply spoke of the pleasure the party had in visiting France and its certainty of victory.
 M. Painleve entertained the party at luncheon. He said he was no longer premier but that his attitude toward the war was unchanged, as was that of the nation. He spoke ot the friendship of the two countries as being cemepted by the blood shed on theb attle field. Representative Taylor responded.

GERMAN EXPERT
 UNC0NCERNED AT U. s. AIR PLANS
Only Small Percentage of 10000 Planes Expected
 to See Service.

Copenhagen, Nov. 15.-Capt. Baron von Richthofen, Germany's leading aviator, expresses himself as uncon- cerned over the reported preparations to place 10000 American aviators on the western front. He. believes it will be impossible to get together that many trained pilots, as the training is long and costly and involves heavy casualties. The newcomers, he says, will, particularly at first ''be unable to judge the military conditions, and at least 25 per cent of the machines will be disabled during the long trans port"
 Lieut.. Gen. Von Ardenne Of the Rer- liner Tageblatt, who reports this con vrsation with von Richthofen at the Flanders front, adds that the German air service. which evidently has beeS foreWarned by newspapers discussing American plans, is steadily increasing the number of aviators and machines.
 German fighting aeroplanes, Gen. Won Ardenne says, how carry wireless receiving outfits, which enable them to engage in combat promptly with enemy fiers. This is necessitated by new conditions on the Flanders front, where whole squardons of Allied ma chimes can appear over the German lines in a surprisingly short time. Ger man squadrons starting from the ground to meet the invaders would be too late, so they must constantly be in the front lines either flying or ready for flight.
 Germkn aviators say they have noted recently that majority of the British f1iers in Flanders are showing themselves in the Dixmude section of the front instead of the region of Pas schendaele.
 Gen. von Ardenne discusses vari- ous new developments of the Flanders fighting. among them the decrease in the use of hand grenades, which in close fighting are as dangerous to friend as to foe. They are being dis placed by light machine guns and special units whose task is to seek out enemy batteries by sight or hearing. The muzzle flash of gun, he says, is observed by from three to five stations connected By telephone, and the posi-. ton of the gun is determined easily. Special apparatus has been assigned to determine the distance and direction from which the sound of a cannon's discharge comes.
