Chicago Tribune)
1t does not seem necessary for the
United States to stand for the new
Bergdoll incident. The wealthy draft
dodger is in Germany There is also
an American army of occupation in
Germany. and it is there because Ger
many is a nation defeated in war,
which has not yet made peace with the
United States.
If the facts are as they have been
stated. the American procedure seems
simple. If German army were on
American soil. if the United States
were the defeated nation, if a notorious
German deserter were in Omaha, and
il two German detectives were in Jail
there. We think we know the demand
which would be sent from Berlin to
Washington and the order which would
be sent to the commander of the Ger
man army of occupation.
1t is exactly the demand which ought
to be sent to Berlin from Washington
and the order which ought to be sent
to the American commander at Cob
LEM. The demand would be for the re-
lease of the detectives and. the giving
up of the deserter. The order would
be to send a detail to get the deserter
and to restore the detectives to Amer

U. S. Commissioner Needed.

(AroOSIOOk Daliy NeWS.)
There is a widespread demand
throughout Aroostook county for the
appointment of United States
Commissioner at Houlton to pass
upon the many cases arising under
the violation of the Volstead Act.
s Under the system as arranged at
present all concerned are unnecessar-
lily Inconvenience because of the
fact that persons arrested under this
act must be taken to Bangor and
arraigned before the United States
Commissioner in that city. This en-
tails much needless expense on the
part Of both tho government and the
defendants and is oftentimes the
cause of undue hardShips. this being
especially the case where the de-
PENDANT is found to be guiltless of
the offense for which he was arrest
ed. When such a happening arises the
discharged defendant has not only
been put to a very great expense in
bringing his own attorney from
Aroostook county to Bangor but is
also loaded with the additional bur-
den of car fare for himself and wit
nesses. If it happens that the arrest
is made at Fort Kent, which is 300
miles distant from Bangor; it will
readily be seen that the incorveni-
ence is worthy of more than passing
notice.
Then again much complaint is
made that the cost of bail, if it can
be procured at all, in Bangor is al
most prohibitive and the defendant
is given the choice of paying the fee
or remaining in Jail.
