An EStplanation.
Konantz, Colo. I,

Editor Herald
l admk making mistake in
reading your EDITORIAL of the 10Th
and I ten,ier my apology. 1 was
in . very great hurry while read
ing the paper. and in the glance
! took It the etiit~ial l, read It
thus: I'VE presume that he
woul6 favor shooting himself
FIRST" etc. That seemed rather
a queer statement to make, even
if you had meant it that way.
Afterward, when l looked for
the paper to re-read the article
again it had been destroyed.
Permit me to say that l am
not advocating everything that
Roosevelt does. It is his Ameri-
canism I admire. / am inclined
to believe he is chronic knocker
but when we go to the tap root
of things we tnd he is a true
blue American. and we can for.
give his sins on account of that.
The point l am trying to make
is this: No one is necessarily a
pro-German because he belongs
to some other political party. l
am sure you will agree with me
that there is only the American
party now, md all political part.
les are we'll represented in it.
Trusting you may find my ex-
planation satisfactory, and re-
peating apology for certain re-
marks contained in my letter, |
am,
Yours for America,
Art. E. Walker.

patriotic duties OF those going
and those remaining, Rev. Dean
made his usual excellent talk,
while Rev. Stephens farewell tc
the boys was well couched and
impressive. The solo of Ray
Flint, and the duets of the Miss
es Herberts, and Rev. Stephens
and Mrs. Dean were specially
fine. Dinner for the boys was
served at the \Terral building,
and there was an over supply.
These boys will always remem'
