not FIGHTING
GERMAN PEOPLE,
COLES WARNING
Fargo Jurist Tells Soldiers
They Are to Fight Power
Mad Monarch

Judge A. T. Cole of the district
court, addressing SO Cass county Sc
lect service men after they became
soldiers Of the United States Thurs
day afternoon, made the statement
that 'the best friend of America five
years after this war is over will be
the people OF Germany"
Before this war is over" said
Judge Cole, the people of Germany
will be free. They are now nothing
but slaves to the will of the kaiser
and his war party. AS an example
Of what the German people now are
enduring / will state that prior to
the beginning of the present big drive
on the western front the kaiser stat
ed he expected it would cost him
100000 men to attain his objective.
Just think Of ii, men. The kaiser is
willing to throw away 300, 600 men in
order to gain an advantage for
himself and his party. These 100000
men mean no more to him than so
much beef. In fact they count as
nothing besides tho winning Of glory
for himself alone"
Judge Cole told the new soldiers
that all America will be glad and
happy when the time will come when
they can return to enter their usual
vocations of life. He assured them
that they will succeed in the I'M
dertaking upon which they have en-
barxed as Soldiers OF Liberty. He
urged them not to go into the fight
with a hatred toward the people Of
Germany, who he said, are not
responsible for the present war, but
have been fooled into Il by power
mad monarch.
The Induction service took place
in the Cass county district COURT
room. W. r. Tucker, clerk of the
local board gave the men their in
structions. He then introduced Mrs.
r. M. Pollock. who on behalf Of the
Women's Christian Temperance un-
ion, presented each soldier with
comfort kit, and babe them God
speed on behalf of the mothers of the
state The Cass county men will
not entrain for Camp Dodge until
April 2.

COURT KNOCKS OUT
DISLOYALTY CHARGE
Continued from Page One)

tlnent facts, cannot be held as tend
ing to discourage enlistment i'm the
army or otherwise to advocate that
assistance should not be rendered the
government in the prosecution of the
war.
The matter complained of treats of
the origin of the present war be-
tween the German empire and it's al
lies on the one hand and France and
her allies on the other, the cause,
purpose and probable consequences
thereof, coupled with the condemna-
ton OF those responsible for bring
ing the curse upon the people.
COURT AGREES
WITH LEAGUE
Lit is a matter of common knowl-
edge that the military autocracy of
Germany and Austria caused and
brought on the war and it has been
obvious from the beginning that the
purpose and object thereof was ter
1torial expansion ana thereby to
subject to the. authority of those
governments peoples of other lands.
The language quoted from. the
Indictment is an accurate characteri-
cation of the German Austrian mil.
ltary machine and of the purpose in
tended to be accomplished as indicat-
ed and shown by facts of common
repute at the time the matter was
published and circulated by defend
ants in September, 1917.
ut contains no reference to the
United States government, nor to
the president or the congress, OF
others in official authority and the
language used has no application to
either. We have in this country no
political autocracy and no autocratic
rulers such as they have in some of
the European governments engaged
in and which are wholly responsible
for the war.
THE language maises no reference
to enlistments or the otherwise for
nation of an army by the United
States, nor can anything therein be
construed as advocating nonassist-
ance In the prosecution of our war"
