Right Will Wm

Right must win whatever the cost
Right must win or the world is lost
And Right will win if we fight for it.
If we summon the whole Of our might for it
Right will prevail
Cling to the thought with might and man
With body and soul and heart and brain,
That Right must win, whatever the cost;
When toll, wealth, life in the scales are tossed
Right will prevail.
Nights the weight of cave mans fists;
Right IS knight squirting into the lists,
Justice his sword and right his spear,
Brain alert and heart without fear;
Right must prevail
Whatever the cost the Right must win!
10 lnger is craven, to doubt is sin;
Are you ready the price to pay
To save the world for saner day?
Then Right will prevail.

which they run into colored Ameri-

Germans don't understand it.
An American unit captured Ger

his unit. with others, had been trying
TO break through for three days. A
French intelligence officer asked the
German why the boches failed to
break through.
THE reason for the failure" said
the German, "it is the colored Ameri-

We have been in attacks on three
points along the line in a month. Each
time we have run into colored Ameri-'

timated there were 100000 coloredI

NEGRO'S GREAT FAITH
IN GOD CAUSES HIM TO
Be LOYAL AND TRUE

In the days of the Civil war. the
Negro did not know it would result
in his freedom, for the issue upon
which the war was fought was the
preservation of the Union and not
the manumission of the slaves; but
freely and willingly the Negro voiun-
teered to fight to save the Union, and
went in this war two hundred thou
sand strong and just how noble and
patriotic they fought, the battles of
Fort Wagner, Pillow, Petersburg and
others will tell. The Negro's great
trust and faith in God, have been the
force that has made him the kind
of citizen and soldier that he is. He
believes in the Bible and believes in
God, and because of this great faith.
he loves his country and its flag and
believes back of the flag stands his
God; that's why, when he is lynched.
burned at the stake, shot down like
dog, disfranchised, Jim crowed, re-
jected and otherwise maltreated be-
meath the folds of Old Glory, he never
weakens, but with faith in God, he
looks up and says to the flag in the
language of Job: Though you slay
me, yetwill trust you," and to his
government he says: "All the days of
my appointed time will | wait until
my change comes"
The Negro shall not be disappoint-
ed in his trust and hope-heart rend-
ing and soul trying as is the sting
of this terrible war at the present;
there is yet to come a brighter and
grander day for the Negro-the un-
failing loyalty. unshaken faith and
faultless love, as have been portrayed
by the Negro for America and its
flag shall not return to him void
There is something infinitely great
er and more enduring which is emerg-
ing already out of this bloody con-
flict- new sentiment in favor of
the race, richer, nobler and more
exalted than ever before, is being
moulded in favor of the Negro While
the American white man has trusted
in his physical endurance and finan-
cial strngth, the Negro has trusted
in his God and ever stood firm in his
belief that God was directing the
battle. When others sulked and re-
fused to be comforted, the Negro has
kept happy with his songs and pray
ers-the terrible ordeals which the
war has brought have only served to
draw the Negro closer to his God
and each other and leepensi f(s
love for both God and man-God will
deliver him and give him the desire
of his heart. The God that led and
delivered his fore-fathers up from the
cursed chains of slavery; will in like
manner, bring the race into its own,
in these times, up out of the mire
of race hatred and black prejudice of
the white man, into the glorious sun
light of human freedom and liberty,
equal rights and equal justice. Weep
ing may endure for night, but Joy
will come in the morning" He who
watches the Sparrow fall, is keeping
tab on twelve million of his oppressed
and prosecuted people.-Galvesto

TRUTH ABOUT THAT
NEGRO SOLDIERS RIOT
AT NORFOLK, VA.

Editors Note: The following edi-
torial is taken from the Baltimore
Daily Herald, the only Negro daily
newspaper in the United States. The
editor of this paper scores the white
daily papers for giving so much front
page space to false or defamatory
article about Negroes and then scarce
ly mentioning worthy deeds which
our people perform. The editorial and
the letter of the commanding officer
to the editor of the white daily that
published the article, follow:
Nearly month ago the Press
Dispatches carried a news item from
Newport News in which it was her
aided all over the country that ten
Negro soldiers were shot down in a
riot with civilians in Norfolk, Va.
Such lying press dispatches al
ways find their way into the great
dailies of the country, but news items
informing the nation of the loyal
deeds of Negroes. their purchase of
Liberty bonds, Thrift Stamps and
their daily sacrifices to aid the gov
ernment in its war program are sell
dom given an inch space in the white
dailies outside of the city where the
activities occur.
"The letter to The Times-Herald of
Col. Dulin, commanding officer at
Camp Alexander which follows ex-
poses the venom and lying propensity
of white dailies toward Negroes and
especially Negro soldiers.
''It furnishes a lesson that should
teach the race that it is imperative
that they should support their own
newspapers and aid in building up a
journalism that will be able to main
tain its own press service and meet
the lying press service of the press
associations with immediate contra
diction. and denunciation, if need be-
Lying misrepresentation of the
Negro in the great dailies in the
United States has done more, is still
doing more-to rob him of his citi
zenship and civil rights and fasten
the chain of semi-slavery upon him
than all other agencies used against
him."

EDMORE MAN HAS
3 SONS IN SERVICE

Hans Roseth of Edmore came over
last Friday and with him came his
three sons, Henry, Oscar and Johnnie
and George Dolphin and Jalmer and
Charles Bratten. Mr.. Roseth's boys
are all of Military age and have all
been placed in class one. He brought
them to this city to confer with the
local exemption board regarding their
enlistment in service as he realized
that they are soon to be called and the
boys and himself felt that rather than
be drafted they would voluntarily Of
fer their services to their country.
Only a few branches of the service
are open to enlistments and they
chose the engineers branch and left
on No. that same evening for Van
couver, WASH, in company with Geo.
Dolphin and Charles Bratten. Mr..
Roseth felt rather sad to see his three
sons all leave him as any father ma
turally would, but as the family are
partially dependent up on their labors
it makes it doubly hard, but they part
ed with them with his blessing and
his hopes that they will serve their
country well. This is but one of *he
sad incidents that happen in these try
ing times and the patriotism of this
father and his three sons we cannot
pass without doffing our hats 70 men
of this calibre. Jalmer Bratten, not
being in the draft had no opportunity
of enlisting with the boys and be sent
to the same place, so he has decided
to go 70 Minneapolis in an endeavol
to get in another branch.

WHAT BILLIONS ARE

A billion dollars is great deal Of
money; in fact considerably more
than any Of us is likely ever to pos
sess, and the one hundred billions
that the war is to cost the, United
States, is a large sum, indeed. One
possible outgrowth of thinking in
terms of such sums and in spending
money by billions is that much Of the
vast amount is likely to be wasted
and that we may get the idea that
small sums are Of little consequence
for any purpose. Yet il is the twenty
five cent pieces and the dimes and dol
lars which go to make them up, that
lead to the purchase of the thrift
stamps. These stamps then go toward
giving the, government some of these
billions that it so greatly needs. It
is the dollar here and there that is
saved from the weekly salary that
goes to pay for the Liberty Bonds
which will give many billions more
to the government. Billions are rela-
tive. The only means, after all, many
five dollars intelligently herded to-
gether for common purpose. Each
silver dollar is part of potential
billion.

Carmie was in charge of a squad Of

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 25.-In a

district court in overruling William
Lenke's demurrer to the complaint of
former Attorney General T. F. McCue
of Darlington in his libel suit against
the Co-operators Herald, state Equity
organ, published at Fargo. The ac-
ton, which was remanded for trial to

charges made against the Co-opera-

Great Northern railway company will
defer all building and construction ac-

Company officials say that it is al
most impossible to secure steel and
other construction material in any,
thing like a reasonable time. There
is also the question of labor, and most
important Of all inability to sell secur-
tiles and obtain money for this con
struction, especially at time when
construction costs are prohibitive.
It is said that while the nation is at
war it will FAX the energies of the
railroad and all the large industries
to take care of the transportation
needs Of the country. The costs al
this time would be prohibitive both
for labor and material even though
the material was accessible, which Of
course, it is not.

BAND CONCERT
next SUNDAY

The Devils Lake band will give an
other Of their popular concerts in the
Opera House Sunday afternoon at
o'clock. A nice program has been ar
ranged consisting of several band
numbers with a vocal selection and a
few extra fine numbers by Nerhau-
gems orchestra. Those who attended
the concert given some time ago were
loud in their praises of the entertain
ment and have repeatedly requested
another, but since that time patriotic
gatherings have been so numerous
that the boys have not felt like en-
croaching upon these occasions. The
band is now without financial support
of any kind, and we understand that
their present financial condition is crit
ical. To help meet the expenses of
the organization there will be collec-
tion taken-there is no admittance
charge, and only those that care 10
give can do SO. It is hoped that they
will be literally patronized on this oc.
casion as the summer time is ap.
preaching and the services of the band
boys will be in as great demand this
year as last for patriotic occasions
and to be without band would be {
big detriment to such gatherings. II
fact a public gathering of most any
nature is rather "tame" without goot
lively music 20 add the necessar,
touch "pep" to it.
