THE SMALL BREEDER.

Recently breeder sold his pure bred stock and quietly lost his ambi- tion to be an improver of livestock. He stated to the writer that he. had tried to find out few things but had been unsuccessful in securing the de- sired information. We suspect, how ever, that he was a little too proud to ask. We want all of these small breeders to feel perfectly free to ask any questions about their business.

Washington, May S.-Two new in
vestigations of aircraft production
are about to be launched. While
President Wilson and the cabinet
were hearing Attorney General Gre
gory's plans for the inquiry into
charges of graft and mismanagement
ordered by the president, Chairman
Chamberlain of the senate military
committee announced that the COM
mittee proposed to reopen its investi-
cation and put its finger on the men
responsible" for deficiencies in the
aviation program. Mr.. Chamberlain
unreservedly declared not one Amer
ican-Duilt battle plane has yet been
sent to Europe, although materials in
large quantity had been shipped
abroad for assembly.
The attorney general announced
that Assistant Attorney General VIII
liam F'riarson had been assigned to
conduct a Thorough inquiry, with the
assistance OF other lawyers of the
department ard special agents Of the
bureau of investigation. One Of the
first steps of Mr.. Friarson will be to
examine the report submitted to the
president by Gutson Borglum, the
sculptor, and to call upon Mr.. Bor-
glum for evidence to support his
sweeping charges of graft and pro-
German intrigue

WITH APOLOGIES
TO The HOG

The Comptroller of the Currency re-
Gently revoked the authority he had
previously given for the organization OF
a national bank on the ground that the
applicants for the charter for bank, al
though men of means, had subscribed
practically nothing to the Liberty loans.
The application for a charter was in
proper form, and these applicants were
men of wealth; so far as legal and ma
terial qualifications were concerned the
granting of the charter was justified.
But when it was ascertained that these
wealthy applicants for charter to do
banking business under the protection
and cooperation of the United States
Government had out of their great wealth
purchased only $500 worth of Liberty
bonds among them, Comptroller Will
Jams promptly revoked his approval OF
the application. They will have no ma
tional bank.
The right and justice of the comptroll-
er's action will be heartily indorsed by
every true American citizen: These
men present a typical case of getting all
possible from the government and rem
dering as little return as possible.
Yet the individual American citizen,
whether native or foreign born, who
from the soil of this country or from the
opportunities this country has offered
him has amassed money and property,
and who in this time of war and necessi-
ty refuses to do his part in financing his
country, is not one whit better than
these applicants for national bank
charter He is acting on the same prin-
cipal, and if he differs from these would
be national bankers, he differs only in
degree not in kind.

most at war with Mexico, whose people
speak the Spanish language, aud the
need of the knowledge OF the Spanish
language for commercial and industrial
uses has been greatly enhanced as re-
suit
The culture value of the German Lam
guage and literature and the writings OF
Lessing, Goethe, Schiller, and host OF
other poets and of novelists, historians
and essayists remain the same as they
were before the war, and II is too great
for us to lose out of our life, national and
and individual. The value of the scien-
tifc and technical writings OF the Ger
man people will no doubt continue TO
increase To rob ourselves of the abili-
ty to profit by them would be very fool
ish. The kinship between the English
and the German languages is the same
as it was before the war, and the value
of a knowledge of the history and phi
lology of the German language for an
understanding of the English remains
the same.
Last of all, we can not as people
afford TO put ourselves in the attitude of
regarding as evil everything about any
people with whom we may happen to be
at war We cannot afford to assume
this attitude toward the German people
simply because they happen to be under
the control of an autocratic militaristic
government, with purposes and aims
that have brought us into conflict with
it. The fewer hatreds and antagonisms
that get themselves embodied in institu-
tions and policies the better it will be
for us when the days of peace return.
We can easily see how this has been true
of our times of war with England, Mexi-
co, Spain and among ourselves,
sincerely hope that school officers
and teachers everywhere will take a
broad and sane view of this subject. To
do so can, l believe, in no way be inter
preted as lack of loyalty to the United
States, nor can failure to do so in any
way strengthen our position in the war
or enable us to bring 1t to a successful
end more quickly.
have reason to believe that the views
and sentiment expressed in this letter
are fully in harmony with those of the
administration at Washington.
Yours sincerely,
P. P. CLAYTON, Commissioner.

Out Of No Mans Land

not allowed TO name place or date.
No Mans Land We we're raidlng
Il by night, three OF us-scouting,
prowllnR. II was as dark as the dun
geons Of Inferno, but often they sent
up signal shells-roseate, bursting
things that bathed all that evil land
in a blood-red light. When their glare
fiared over us we had to stand as we
were caught, hand or foot upraised-
moveless objects In the red glow until
the light snuffed out and all was dark
once more.
We reached the German entangle-
ments and began cutting them with
our oiled clippers. We were careful,
very careful, but we were not careful
enough. They heard us. Over came
two bombs.
The three of us went down In a row.
Jack and Tom never knew what hit
them. l was hurt too badly TO be able
to get up.

said my last prayer.
And thenl
Since the dawn Of time do not be-
lieve the world has seen more glori-
Gus thing. From the hill tops our ar
tillery laid down a box barrage fire
and under 1t, heads raised like EN-
perors and shoulders squared, came
six men, stretcher bearers. AS though
they had been on parade they came
forth in broad daylight into the very
teeth of the enemy and picked up
what was left of Jack, Tom and me.
AS though we had been their own
brothers they bore us back, swiftly,
gently. Then do you know what those
Huns did?
Opened fire on us-the dead, the
bearers of the dead and man who lay
aulverlng at the threshold Of death.
Two of the six bearers went down.
The other four brought them back
along with what was left of Jack, Tom
and me.
And when | awoke in the hospital
after the operation, deathly sick but
back from the nightmare-land and
with the sunlight upon me, whom do
you think | saw bending over me, the
red cross upon her sleeve, babbling,
laughing, crying, kissing me2

GOVERNMENT AND
GERMAN LANGUAGE

The following letter, published in the
Lutheran Standard in April is worthy
of wide reading AS it comes from one
who holds an eminent position in our
national government, coupled with the
agitation against the German language,
makes it needed SOLDERING influence at
the present time. The letter is written
by the United States Commissioner of
Education, and appears in the Presidents
official bulletin, from which is quoted:
The Bureau of Education makes pub.
lie the following letter:
March II, 1918.
DR.. Robert L. Slagle, President Uni
versity of South Dakota, Vermilion,
S. D.:
My Dear DR.. Slagle-In reply to
your letter of February 26, must say
that Icannot agree with those who would
eliminate German from the high schools
and colleges of the United States at this
time. 1t is, of course, desirable now
and always is, that nothing should be
taught in any language in our schools or
elsewhere that would tend to create a
spirit of disloyalty to our country or to
the American ideals of freedom and de-
mocracy. But the fact that we are now
at war with Germany should not, be-
lieve, affect in any way our policies in
regard to the teaching of the German
language in our schools.
The United States is at war with the
Imperial Government of Germany and
not with the German language or litera-
ture. The president has tried to make
it plain to all the people that we are not
at war with the people of Germany as a
people-that we have in onr hearts no
hatred or bitterness toward them. For
our own sake and the sake of the future
of the world, let us hope that we may
finish this task for the establishment of
freedom and the safety of democracy
without learning to chant any hymn of
hate After the war is over intercourse
with the German people will be re-
established, probably not Immediately
and fully, but our relations with them
will no doubt be more important as the
years go by Germany may even yet
become one OF the leading nations for
the preservation of the peace of the
world.
For practical, industrial. and COM
mercial purposes we shall need a knowl-
edge of the German language more
than we have needed in the past. We
should remember also that there are
many millions of German-speaking peo-
pie outside of Germany and the num-
Der of such persons will probably in
crease rapidly after the war regardless
of the way in which the war may end.
Some years ago we we're at war with
Spain, and more recently we were al

HUMAN RIGHTS AS
MADE IN GERMANY
Toledo News Bee.

Frederick William ", predecessor OF
the present king of Prussia, sued one Of
his absconding subjects in the courts Of
Missouri, U.S.A., this suit reaching the
Circuit Court for decision in 1856. Here
is the opening of his petition
THE plaintiff states that he is alb
solute monarch of the kingdom of
Prussia, and'as king thereof is sole
governor of that country, that he
is unrestrained by any constitution
or law, and that his will, expressed
in due form, is the only law of that
country and is the only legal power
there known to exist as law"
In Prussia new king is on the throne,
but to all effects his will is still "the
only law of that country"
William II is not the only one whose
subjects are as the dust beneath his
chariot wheel. Frederick, Grand Duke
of Mecklenburg, Prince of Wenden,
Schwerin and Ratzeburg, Lord of Ro-
stock, recently succeeded to the grand
ducal throne of Mecklenburg- -Strelitz, in
Germany.
Here is his manifesto, issued in March,
1917:
In graciously condescending to
notify the population of this import
ant procedure, we command all those
who dwell in the grandduchy, Off
Cials, vassals, servltors and persons
of all rank, station and position, to
show us unquestioning, silent obedi-
ence in whatever it may please us
graciously to condescend to under
take, or to order, and to conduct
themselves at all times and in all
circumstances as beseems faithful
subjects and servitors in their atti-
titude towards their lord and mas
ter, who will brook no opposition to
his gracious and condescending rule
and authority. "
That's what progress human rights
have made in Germany, That's the sort
of authority Prussia hopes to impose on
the nations of the world, including Hol-
land and the United States.
