THE ANSWER.

Submarines appear off the coast of
America aad sink a number of small
vessels and a fair-sfzed steamer. And
then
And then some three thousand ap-
plicants appear in one day at The
Naval Reserve recruiting Offices.
And then the riveters of the coun-
try set new all-around record.
And then Secretary Daniels an
nounces that The road to France has
been kept open and will be kept open.
A few folks were probably fright
ened. It was the best thing that
could happen to them.
The big result is this: Everyone
who wasn't fighting mad before is
fighting mad now.
It was the ruthless submarine cam
paign that brought us into the war.
A ruthless submarine campaign at
the doors of America isn't to drive
US out. It will just drive US on all
the harder.-The Stars and Stripes.

OUR OWN LANGUAGE

| One of the revelations in the case
of William Gessert, Sheboygan Coun-
| ty farmer convicted of obstructi1g the
national army law by persuading a
son not to respond to the draft and
now on his way to serve five years in
a federal prison is astounding indeed.
Here il is:
"Gessert says he is forty-seven
and was born on a farm lie now
occupies. He declares he was edu-
Gated in the district school of Rhine
township, but had difficulty in under
standing questions and making re-
plies il English"
Born in Sheboygan County forty
seven years ago and yet experience
ing difficulty in understanding ques-
lions and making replies in English"
We talk of Americanizing our immi-
grants. Here however, is a native
of America, almost half a century
old, who does not understand the Ian
guage of America!
Is it far to him that in his youth
he was not prepared for American
citizenship?
Is it fair TO the many others Ike
him?
Is it fair to America?
And the movement for German
study in Americas common schools,
which prevents American children
from learning Americas language
goes right on
A similar case of father and son
of Defense. Both sobed bitterly
Both repented. The son said:
"Gentlemen of the council, l wish
to say that the trouble with my faith
er and with hundreds of others of our
citizens born in Germany that they
are permitted to read German news
papers. Foreign language newspa-
pers should be abolished and your
state council took the first step when
it asked for the Punishment of for
eig1 language in our schools"
But meanwhile the preservation of
Germanism among immigrants and
the incubation of Germanism in The
native born goes on. Meanwhile
America is being divided and under
mined.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

IT'S BOUND TO HAPPEN

Whenever the town girl gets too
proud to marry man with 100 acres
of land and twenty red pigs just be-
cause he can't tell a tango from a
slow gin rickery, says Will Towns
ley you can set it down as fact that
she will either die an old maid or
marry a $6-a-week clerk with head
full of ozone and only one change of
holeproofs. We would rather see her
hooked with some fellow who wears
Ascent overalls and knows when to
hit the top of the market than be
yoked to some cuthbert who plays the
mandolin, smokes Turkish cigarettes
and lives off his fathers pension.
Still, there's no accounting for taste.
That's why they are establishing
courts of domestic relations here and
there.

Germany and that if the Kaiser de-
served to be shot, President Wilson
deserved TO be shot also. He also
said in answer to Judge Days ques-
ton as to whether he had become a
citizen of this country, that he never
took ont his citizen papers and had
never voted. Judge Daily, after learn
ing that Ristow could raise only $50,
ordered that he pay $40 of that a.
mount to the Red Cross and the re-
naming $40 be invested in saving
stamps. He then sentenced Ristow to
to three months in the county jail
but suspended the sentence until Nov.
18th, 1913 and appointing Mrs. Ris-
tow, defendants wife, as his parole
agent, requiring her to report to
the court from time to time as to the

THE EDITORS HELP.

Major john D. Yost, recruiting Of
ficer for this district, in addressing
the editors assembled <at Gle1wood
said: minnesota editors have been
largely instrumental in placing and
keeping Minnesota RECRUITING Dis
trict near the head of the list of "a
recruiting districts in the country.
They are running practically 200 col
umns of publicity every week, which
is of inestimable value from a re-
cruiting standpoint This tribute
from so eminent a man is most gra-
tifying to the newspaper boys. 1t
means that the newspapers of Mimi
esota are contributing of their stock
II trade at least $500 week to this
one branch of war service. This is
aside from all other war publicity,
and individual contributions the news
paper men are making, such as the
public makes. Is there another sin
gle industry in the state making as
good a showing?

TWO ARMIES-WHICH is YOURS

Two win the victory, America
needs two armies. One army to fight
One army two work and save.
Nobody can avoid enlis.ing in one
Of these armies unless he is, openly
or secretly, partisan of the enemy.
There is no other army except the
slackers, and that is not an army; it's
a squad.
Which army is yours
One or the other Must be yours. II
you are an American worthy the name
you will enlist in one or the other.
Both are necessary. Both are indis-
pensable. Either is useless without
the other
Work and save, then whatever your
job is you are giving il your level
best; and in the meantime you are
saving, even at the cost of sacrifice,
and putting your savings at the SER

Springs last Sunday in compliment
to Mrs. Frank Berkheimer, of Mil
ford, Utah, who has been in the city
for the past week visiting her bro
ther, H. L. Birum, proprietor of the
Great Falls Floral company. The pic
mic was more in the nature of a re-
union of childhood playmates who
were born and reared at Redwood
Falls, MINI, and was held on the
banks of the Missouri just below the
Falls, a spot similar to one on the
banks of the Redwood river where
they SO many times held their picnics
in girl and boyhood days. Some of
the members of the party had not
seen each other for over Is years.

opportunity, il this district where
there are SO many citizens Of German
origin, to make this statement, and
to plead with those of German an
oestry for a wholeheartad support
of the president and the administra-
ton.
eff we want to be fair TO ourselves
and our country, we must admit hard
as it seems, that there has been room
for doubt as to our loyalty in the
past. When our patriotism has been
questioned, have we not perhaps been
found sulking? Let us then admit
thai there is some ground for our
being asked where we stand.

it. Danish the German speech from

CHEAPER FLOUR AND BREAD DUE TO WHEAT PRICE STABLiziNG
cFrom The Official BulIcun)

tffom The Official BuIctin)
 The Food Administration has pre- pared q chart showing the course of the price of flour since the inaugura- tion of the administration and also showing the price received by the farmer for iI2 bushels of wheat plus tho freight to the mills. Minneapolis has been taken as a representative milling center although the charts of the other milling ccntcrs show prac- tically the same results
 Approximately 44 bushels of wheat are required to make l barrel of flour The reports of the Department of Az riculturc show that the farmer received for the 1916 harvest between $l.45 and $l50 per bushcl for the harvest, talk ing the country by and large. There fore, with the freight charges includ- cd from the wheat-raising section to Minncauols tho realization of the farmer and the necessary freight would amount to slightly over g for F bushels of wheat from the 1916 harvest It is true that the price of 1916 harvest wheat rose steadily dur Ing the year. but the farmer had. in bulk, parted with his wheat before the large prices were received
 The Government fair price of wheat, established early in September for 1917 harvest, together with the freight charges to Minneapolis, amounts to roughly S9.50 for i1s bushels of wheat The prices of bulk flour at tho Min. no1poIis mill of about sl0.25 per bar rel shows that the miller is now re- ceiving about 75 cents barrel, which must include both his operating ex. p"nses and profit

THE GREAT DANcER-POLITlc

(From The Akron Press)
 The allies notably France, seems to be particularly accursed at this time, with a lot of ambitious men who are putting themselves first, before the !great cause, by playing politics, and the ghoomiest news issuing from Europe in many days is to the effect that a schism between the allies political and military leaders is generating.
 The French cabinet resigns under fire. London is all excited over the reports that General Haig won't stand for the proposed allied military com mission. In Russia, dozen groups are fighting for power.
 On the other side is the kaiser with all his allies and all his allies re- sources in the hollow of his iron hand.
 Full control as to diplomatic and governmental management has been the kaiser's strongest advantage, from the start and from the start, the greatest danger of the allies has been the inability, if not the impossibility to concentrate Their weakness in this particular has already been dem onstrated by tons of sacrificed blooG and billions of wasted munitions. and to promote this internal weakness, it would seem, at this writing, that the selfish politician, d creature more con temptible than pacifist pro- German or any other internal foe of the cause, is coming to the front.
 Politics and war mix as do gun powder and friction matches, and no better.
 If there ever was d time when the whole people of the United States. down to the infant who can knit sock. should make war their sole business, that time is now. We've got to supply Europe not only with men, money and munitions but with morale, or the present adviccs from Europe are tre- mendously deceptive And 1t is a crime againts God and all mankind not to help the American people under stand the natscr. ss

 It is also of interest to note that the farmer it today receiving over 40 per loaf, whereas last year he received un- der 20 per cent of the price of the loaf, this being the stabilization of prices and the total elimination of hoardipg and speculation In this industry.
