Make Good Showing in Army

In the list Of ever ti2raa hundred
American soldiers published the other
day in the daily papers following the
Tuscania tragedy there is food for re-
fection in Potsdam. Thirty one of
the names are distinctly German
roughly, nine per cent Of the total.
The latest Available census figures
report approximately 5000, 900 per-
sons ia the United States, who either
were themselves horn in Germany or
are th5 children Of parents, , 9th Of
whom were born il Germany In
a total population of 100, 900, 600,
this is about eight per cent. In
other words the percentage Of Ger
man names in the army list naati ced
is little higher than the percentage
Of German names Of fetal population
Which is another way Of saying that
when it comes to gcing into tic army
Germans in tile United States are az
saying about cne hundred per cent
pure American. Tyo conclusions can
be drawn from this interesting fact;
first, that when tha kaiser counted
uDon dizatrsct;8n among tAa German
Americans he made a bad mistake;
second, t. at the relatively Jew dis
loyal German Americans are going to
be a mighty lonesome lot after the

Concurrent Resolution introduced by
c. p. Peterson Of ToMner County

Whereas, the kept press OF this state
and some eastern papers has published
editorials aud other statements defalnlng
the good name Of the state and It's people
accusing us Of not being patriotic and
loyal.
And Whereas certain politicians and
sclf-styled patriots have traversed the
state under cloak OF the noble orders OF
the Red Cross and the y. NJ. c. A.,
tlrusting their poisonous daggers and
defa1ning our state government and l-s
people. -,
the Fifteenth Legislature Assembled OF
North Dakota, i'll extraordinary session
assembled, condemn such action and
brand them as lies and fa1seho0ds;5as this
state has proven beyond a reasonable
doubt that its people are as loyal and
have sacrificed as much, If not more than
any state in the Union, according to Its
means, and arc still willing 70 sacrifice
for the sake of democracy; and that these
| self-stvled patriots are as much traitors
to this commonwealth and its people as
the pro-Ger1nans.
BE II Further Resolved, That copies of
this resolution be printed il our state and
some eastern newspapers that tllc wrong
we have suffered be viudicated
Referred to Committee OIL State Affairs.

themselves who persist in deliberate
