Wilson Wants to Know
Exact Fighting Force

Washington, Feb. 10. - Army and
navy chiefs have been instructed to
compile Immediately an exact ap-
praisement of the regular fighting
forces of the country for the informa-
tion of President Wilson.
The most immediate need in both
the army and navy is for officers and
men. It will be shown in the reports
that every effort has been made to
overcome this difficulty. Additional
recruiting stations are being opened
throughout the country and the navy
department is getting into communica-
ton with retired officers and enlisted
men, as we'll as enlisted men dis
charged in recent years.
1t will be shown that while there
has been speeding up Of naval con-
struction through the cooperation Of
ship builders, radical measures will be
necessary to accomplish important re-
suits in this direction. Authority to
commander private plants and to sus-
pend the 8-hour law on navy contracts
has been included in the pending navy
appropriation bill.

America S Real DANGER
Has Not Been Removed

Washington, Feb. 20.-America's
real danger of clash with Germany
cannot be removed until the imperial
government removes her duress of
submarine warfare. The detention of
members of the crew of the steamer
Yarrowdale in Germany is regarded as
very serious by the administration and
as collateral to the main object of
Germany. More than two weeks have
passed without an overt act, but Off
Gals are inclined to think that it due
to the fact that there has been scant
opportunity. Today at least two arm
ed merchantmen are in the barred
zone. They are the Orleans and the
Rochester, both carrying American
crews and heavy cargo declared to
be contraband by Germany. Their
safety from now on until definite word
of their arrival in port is made will
be the subject of lively interest in
ofticialdom. In the meantime it is
pointed out that Germany has achiev-
ed the main object of her sea cam
paign. She has kept American ships
waiting in American ports and she has
cut down many of the ships of the
allies.

ROGERS STATE BANK
HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING

Rogers Citizen: The annual meet
ing of the stockholders of the First
State Bank of Rogers was held Tues
day at IL o'clock in the morning. A
good attendance of stockholders was
present and lively, interesting meet
ing was held. After hearing a report
of the years business and the election
of directors, the stockholders partook
of a sumptuous banquet served in the
village hall by Mrs. Edwin Quist. The
banquet was enlivened by short talks
by the members, who talked on differ
ent topics, from bank management to
farm conditions. The meeting was
one which will long be remembered by
the stockholders of the bank. In the
afternoon the directors meeting was
then held. The bank affairs were thor
oughly examined and found to be in
excellent condition. All of the old
officers and directors were elected for
another year.

OUR FIRST SHIP TO BRAVE
BLOCKADE DUE THERE TODAY

New York, Feb. 20.-The steamer
Orlean, the first American ship carry.
ing contraband to brave the German
blockade since the break in German
American relations, which sailed from
this port Feb. 9, is due in the sub
marine zone on her way to Bordeaux
today. The Orlean is 5000 ton
freight steamer laden with contra
band for the French government.
Whether news will come today that
she has been sunk without warning
by the Germans remains to be seen.
The Orlean sailed unarmed, unstriped,
flying the American flag and owned,
differed and mostly operated by Am
orleans. The Orleans is owned by
the Oriental Navigation company of II
Battery Place, New York, and it is
her first trip under American registry.
Should this boat be sunk without
warning by submarine commander it
might bring to a sharp climax the
strained situation between Germany
and the United States.

Work has been started on extensive
improvements in the store of the
Straus Clothing Co., which, when com
pleted, will give them store equal
to any in the state.
Principal among the improvements
is the squaring up Of their room by
taking the corner which has been &C.
cupied by the Kindred barber shop and
the putting in of a modern store front
on the south. With the new front
along the whole south wall and
changes contemplated in the west
side their store will be much better
lighted and it's appearance will be in
accord with the reputation which has
made the name Of Straus a synonym
for quality for 20 years.
While the improvements are under
way the west front will be closed, Mr..
Stern announces, but that will in no
way interfere with business. You can
go in any time and get the same
prompt, efficient service as heretofore.

"Big" Swanson Takes
Up Pen On Army Life

my soldier days are over. No more
bugle calls at 6:15 a. m. No more
drills and inspections. Bacon, beans
and black coffee will be rather more
intermittent. l may see butter once
more"
So writes Alvin Swanson ("Big
Swanson) member of last years Bud.
get staff to his brother, Victor E., edi-
tor of The Leonard Journal. If for no
other reason Swanson is remembered
by many for his part in Back to the
Farm" presented in the auditorium
last spring. He continues:
1.-THE North Dakota boys left for
home the 23rd. And they were glad
to go. Inaction has become monoton-
Gus, drills and maneuvers a bore. Still
they were all glad that they had come.
They all say they are through with the
army forever and they may think they
believe it but know land I've a
bunch they dog that if Uncle Sam ever
Gals again they will forget the little
troubles they have had and they'll all
be back. They couldn't help it. Why,
even the cook, who had been cussed
by every soldier in the company had
tears in his eyes when the boys came
up to the cars, the band playing "Sa-
lutte the Sultan" Every soldier was
handed bouquet of flowers by the la.
dies and children. This besides other
tokens show what the people thought
of us. 1t is rather unusual for soldiers
to be in any one place very long and
still be on speaking terms with civil.
ians. But we got along well-and it is
pleasant to be missed.
"The expedition into Mexico, the
calling out of the guard, may seem
quite joke to most and perhaps it is
considered only in that light. But it
has done much good besides showing
the inefficiency and unpreparedness of
the military organizations. 1t has
shown that the average American can
be made into the best soldier in the
world on the shortest notice.
Il think the discipline and work
would be good for most of the young
fellows. OF course some would learn
evil habits and go to the bad. But you
can't spoil a bad egg and the chances
are that they, would take pains to
travel the wide path whether they
served in the army or not. Might do
some world of good to obey orders
instead of giving ma and pa and SIS
ter and little brother orders. 1t might
be good thing for some of the indie.
pendent American hopes to be in a
position where they can't resign if
they don't like the boss. I believe,
taking the individuals concerned into
consideration, that universal military
training is necessary and is coming.
believe it is folly to invite trouble by
shOrtsightedness.
But of course there's another side
10 it. That makes lit interesting. If
hard pressed l might admit that m,
views on other subjects have some
times been proved to be wrong, and
that there's a remote possibility Of my
being wrong in this. Also that other
peoples opinion is as good as my own.
Think it over and read General Woods
address at st. Louis" Sincerely,
Alvin.
