Captive Made
Good to Foe

Raoul Doridot, soldier who COM
mitted suicide recently at Mouline,
France, was the hero of a strange adj
venture Made. prisoner early in the
war and sent to Germany, he learned
that his mother was dangerously i'll.
He sent letter to Emperor William
asking to be permitted to 60 to her
deathbed. The emperor granted the
request with the proviso that Doridot
give his word of honor to return to
camp when the object of his journey
was accomplished. Arriving at Besan-
con, he was held by the French au-
thorities. While he was detained his
mother died.
The voyage to Mouline being now
without object Doridot returned to
Germany and presented himself at
the camp.
Il never expected to see you again."
said the commapdant.
"The word of a French soldier is
worth more than a scrap of paper"
responded Doridot.

ried to escape the draft have dis
covered the peace terms are not
meant for them.

ADVERTISE IN THE STANDARD.

Business retrenchments during the war period
have occasloned serious losses in many lines OF
trade and industry. These were necessitated bv the
eSigencies Of the national government for the pro-
ductlon OF the necessary supplies for our fighting
forces. Many manufacturing concerns were obliged
to sit tight for the want of materials until the
storm blew over. Their activities were practically
suspended as result of the communicating of the
material and labor resources of the nation in the
gigantic struggle to civilization from the can
nibal philosophy OF the Teutons Whoesaling
houses not engaged in the distribution of essential
products were obliged to curtail their trade to a
very important extent, and retailing businesses were
similarly affected by the universal cessation of nor
NAL purchasing by the public.
The industries and concerns that were engaged
in the production and distribution of commodities
necessary for the carrying on of the enjoyed a
period of super-normal activity and the consequent
expansion Of profits in their trade. Speaking in a
broad sense these fortunate lines of business were
Situated in the east, and very small proportion of
the commercial advantages of the war trade per-
colated into the western and northwestern states

IRELAND'S RIGHT TO sELF-DErER-
MINATION.

1T is the relation of Ireland to the British EN-
pre, not the relation of Ireland to Ulster, that has
been given pre-eminence by the doctrine of self-de
termination Should the doctrine of self-determina-
ton apply to Ireland? That is the question which
the victory of Sim Fem, based on the moral prin
c;iple proclaimed by Mr.. Wilson, brings home to
Americans Morally the case of the Irish people is
nv1ncble. Their right to self-determinaton, their
right to separate from England or to make an ar
rangenent with England on some other basis than
the tn, Act OF Union, cannot be disguised or denied
line Irish people not secessionists The ma
orty OF them had no part in the corrupt and ntoer-
able measure that united their government to Eng
lands Rightly or wrongly, they ascrbe to it the
long record OF misery, persecution, Illustration and
humiliation that has been the large part of their
modern history. Under the Act of Union they have
suffered great as we'll petty misfortunes They
have never accepted the Union and it is their mani
test will, with pedigree of perfect clearness to
have the tull freedom to determine their own gov
ernment''

of the several states. If they are in doubt as to
what they should pursue such resolutions will
help them to resolve their doubts, and tend to a
consonance of their actions with the will OF the peo-
pie of the nation.
The Northwest is, and will continue to be for
years to come, the worlds greatest granarv OF food
stutfs 1t is to this richly endowed region that the
starving millions of Europe must look for the basic
supply OF the necessares OF sustenance for at least
the immediate future The great Twin Cities will
loom up before the impoverished peoples of the old
world as center second only in Importance to
Washington itself, and the flour and foodstuffs sent
abroad from here in such generous measure will
serve to popuarize the State of Minnesota and the
twin metropolitan city of the Northwest
An expression of the Legislative body of this great
state may therefore appeal powerfully to the dele
gates OF France, Italy, Belgium, Poland the Jugo-
Savs and the other devastated states even as thew
are largely receptive of our food-supples The de-
slres and detectives of these starving states will in
turn have strong bearing upon the actions of the
general Conference, despite the opposition of the
British: Every contribution of sympathy and sup
port OF Ireland is therefore to be welcomed The
record of the participation of the people of the Irish
race in Minnesota in the world war is one of un-
swerving steadiness and unAinching LOYALTY, and
well warrants such recognition as would be given
in the passage OF resolution of sympathy and sup
port of their motherand this crisis in her destiny

rogatorles that he has hitherto never confronted
on his ballot, and demands categorical answer
assumed that the men and women of America will
soon quality themselves to pass intellgently and
consc1ent1ously upon the weighty issues involved.
At this stage of the great debate it is quite clear
that some kind OF measure for the future peace
OF the world will be formulated and adopted at the
world conference. None of the opponents of the
constitution as it now stands go SO far as to saw
that no agreement whatever should be devised and
established. All concur in the desirabiity of such
Plan covenant or court under one form or another
mere mas been no fiat refusal ON the part of any
OF Our statesmen to consider such proposal. They

portant lines so that the wellknown aphorsm quot

nent, Blessed be not the complaining tongue but

AN IRISH RESOLUTION IN THE MINNIE
sofa STATE LEGIsLATURE-WHY NOT2

Would it not be timely and gracious act on the
part OF the Minnesota State Legislature, in SEES
sion, following the example of many Of the egisla-
lures of sister states in the Union to pass resolu-
tons Of sympathy with the Irish people in their
struggle for selfdetermnation of their sovereignty
at the world Peace Conference. The national House
OF Representatives adopted measure of this char
acter by a vote that was practically unanimous.
Many of the legislatures of the states have taken
similar action, and with the same preponderance
of favorable sentiment in regard to it, So far as we
have observed no state body in which such resolu-
ton has been introduced has refused to place OH
record its approval thereof
The only argument that has been urged against
such action is that the subject extraneous to the
jurisdiction or outside the sphere of authority of
the state legislatures. In practical sense this is
true for such action have direct bearing upon
the action of the delegates assembled at Paris to ar
range for the future peace Of the world But in
directly our delegates in that Conference may be
profoundly influenced by such expression of the
will of the people voiced in the actions of their
elected representatives in the law-makng bodies

CONGRESSMAN CALVIN ON HIS METrLE

In the debate on the Irish resolution in the clos
ing hours OF Congress when it was sought by few
members to filibuster the matter so as to prevent
vote on the merits of the resolution Representative
Calvin of Massachusetts offered bit of advice to
the politicians of both parties that is wholesome and
timely, and which brought the issue to crisis He
said: IN
Il desire to advise the political party that at
tempts to throttle this resolution that it is dealing
with dynamite. I appeal to the House to stop this
nonsense, and give consideration to resolution for
the relief of people who have been suffering for
several centuries and to let the world know that we
believed in President Wilson when he said we en-
tered the war to make all nations free"
Bernhard in his book, Germany and the Next
War; gives his opinion as to the capacity of that
people tor self government: mo people is so little
qualified as the German to direct its own destinies
whether in paramentarian or republican con-
stltut1on' The events that have taken place in the
last few months tend to prove the truth of the Bern
hardl dlctum, and incidentally to expose the hollow
ness and sham of the Reichstag pretense of partici
patton in the control of the empire. The Hohenzol-
Terms relieved their willing subjects of the burden of
thinking OF the general status of the country and the
drift OF its course and the present and the next two
or three generations of Teutons will pay the pen
atty for the national laxity in this regard

Sea, - YIN
That we 1aggard's pace must take in granting Lib
erty? 0''
Hath she rendered not to Caesar
And bent beneath his rod
Yea, rendered all she may give
Save loyalty to God
Naught should ye fear from Erin, o Albion the
Brave, ~

THE future of civilization" says Sir Horace
Plunkett, who is touring America, depends
upon the relations of the United States and the Brit
1sh Empire and with all that has been said, all the
Interpretations which have gone out, the Irish
question forms dangerous shoal in the wav of
those friendly relations" There is solid chunk of
good counsel in this observation of the Chairman of
the Irish Convention of 1867 which British
statesmen and American statesmen too would do
well to absorb into their systems
Until the relations between Britain and ireland
are satisfactorily adjusted there can be no genuine
and whole-hearted af6ation between John Bull and
Uncle Sam. With that dangerous shoal eliminated
courses OF both nations will be made clearer and
safer in the march of democracy and Ireland itself
would be rendered powerful ally in the common
cause.

Haying season Is now on and most
farmers are busy cutting the first
crop OF alfalfa. In good many
cases the first crop is already har-
vested. The very dry, warm wealth
er has hastened the maturing OF the
crop which generally is not quite up
to normal yield The wet weather
during the early spring was very
favorable to the growth of weeds and
as consequence the quality is lit
tie below the standard in many
cases.

finished. Apparently more care has
been given to the preparation OF the
seed bed for corn this year than
common.

the essential features of the work.
