German Kultur.

The following extract from a letter
by man "over there" and published
in last weeks Appleton City Journal,
IS from an eye witness to- some of the
German Kultur and should be read
and pondered over by those who pre-
tend to think that we should have
waited for the Germans to come here
before we commenced to fight:
81 suppose there are still a few peo-
pie AROUND home who think we ought
to have waited until they. came over
into the States before we got into the
war. Ross, and if they had seen what
we have seen they would be damn
thankful that we had a chance to
come over here to fight them. We
have been through towns that have
been moved clear to the ground and
worst of all in a little town back
Always from here where had INV
squad every little boy in the town
(boys the size of DOM had both of
their hands cut off. Believe me. the
people in the States never want any,
thing like that to happen to their chill
dren. and it never will"

Warren Lancaster, who was ar
rested in Kansas City last week when
his brother, Roscoe, was killed in a
battle with the police, has been re-
leased, as there, were no charges
against him. Before he left the police
station he declared his intention of
killing Dale Jones who. he declared,
is responsible for his brother getting
into the trouble which resulted in his
death. 1t is to be hoped that he
makes good his determination as
Jones has. been making nuisance
of himself about long enough.

The Russian bolsheviki has at last
seen aIight. Since United States sol
diers have been landed at Archangel
and United States and Japanese
soldiers have landed at Vladivostok,
Lenine, who is responsible, perhaps
more than any one man, for the awful
conditions in Russia, has ordered that
the reign OF terror cease and that a
return 10 orderly government be
made. 1t, is a trifle late for the
change of heart but he may save him
self from just punishment of his
awful crimes by helping to restore
order in that unhappy country.

EXCUSED FROM JURY
SERVICE
Judge Calvird Drops Memo Meinen
From the Panel on a Charge
That He is Pro-German.
Meinen Protests His
Loyalty.

Acting on a petition signedIby citi-
zcns OF this county Judge c. A. Cal
vird last week notified Circuit Clerk
II. 0. Maxey that Memo Meinen, OF
Charlotte township, who had been
drawn for service on the petit jury
for the October term of the Bates
county circhit court. would be ex-
cused from serving.
In the petition Meinen is charged
with not having Subscribed for any
of the Liberty Bonds, that he has not
contributed to the Red Cross, that he
had sent his children out of the dis
trict to a school in German district
and that he was a man OF strong Ger
man proclivities.
Mr.. Meinen was in town the first
of the week and strongly denies that
he had sent his children out of the
district for the purpose stated. He
is member OF the school board in
the district in which he lives and
states that each of his children have
received their education in the public
schools Of the county. The only time
that they have been sent out of the
district was when they had been sent

pared for confirmation in the Luther
an church and not sent to- school,
He says that the reason that he has
not bought Liberty Bonds or con-
tributed to the Red Cross was be-
cause he had never been solicited to
do so. That at one time when they
were soliciting for the Red Cross in
his township he volunteered to con-
tribute but the solicitor informed
him that he was on another list and
that he could not take his contribu-
ton. At the time that Liberty loan
bonds were being sold in his town
ship he was not at home when the So
licitors cSllcd at his house, and later
he saw them and offered to buy a
bond. but was informed that the lists
had been turned in and that they
could not sell him any. Not know
ing where to buy them he let the
matter drop. Tuesday Mr.. Meinen
brought the solicitors for both the
Red Cross and the Liberty loan to
this office and they substantiated his
statements in this regard.
Mr.. Meinen claims to be a thor
ough AmericSn citizen and is verx in
dienant that lis loyalty should be
question and propose to take the
matter up with Judge Calyird and
make vigorous defense to the
charge.
