Americans!
Or Have We Become
Too Polite?
BY FRED L. BOALT

WHEN l WAS Fl, l took an nconspicuous part in
w our unpleasantness with SPAIN II was my one
and only experience in soldering.
Every night at shutdown had retreat" The
whole regiment stood at attention the flag futtered
earthward, and the band played 'Thc Star-Spangled
Banner" 1t was an impressive ceremony, and al
ways swallowed the lump in my throat.
ooh, say does the star-spanged banner still wave,
Ger the land of the free and the home of the Drawer
Does it?
Two American soldicrs-Frank thinner and Carl
Neuf are in German prison. They were convicted
ing to capture Grover Cleveland Bergdo the wealthy
Philadelphia draft cvader.
Bergdbll himself testified and told such hating,
contradictory story that even the German Judge was
ncensed and warned the witness of the pers OF the
German law touching perjury.
Neuf was given Is months in prison, and thinner
six months. Bergdoll was disappointed at what he
called the courts lenency, but boasted that ne was
not yet done with the Americana, whom he would put
where dogs won't bark at them for FIVE years"
Now read that representation" will be made po.
tey requesting the release OF thinner and Neuf and
the return of Bergdoll.
am no Anglo-manac, but know that il thinner
and Neuf had been British soldiers, John Bull would
have acted frat and made Representation" after
ward.
What thinner and Neuf did may have been "illes-
gal" They at least did their spirited and patriotic
best to their country and punish an unsrateful
say we should DEMAND the release Of thinner
and Neuf and the return Of Bersdoll AT ONCE! And
If our demand 10 Immediately complied with, we
should use force.
l say we should bring thinner and Neuf home in
honor, heroes who tried to do desperate and wor
thy thing, and almost succeeded.
If we do not do this, there are American soldier
who will hang their heads at retreat" and we may
have to revamp the words of the old song:
"Oh, say, does the old flag still flutter all night
Ger land filled with folks who are too damned po-
lite?"

ARREST Of NAVY MAN
CONNECTED WITH PLOT

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-(A. P.)
An enlisted man of the navy was ar
rested at the navy yard here in con-
necticn with an alleged plot to blow
up the presidential yacht, the May
flower. The secret service is pro-
ceeding on the theory that a plea may
have been extended to the shops and
to other vessels at the navy yard. The
man under arrest is said to have Of
fered the officer bribe to be permit-
ted to put package aboard the May
flower.
The man under arrest was a men,
ber of the Mayflower crew. He is
said to have avoid boatswain that he
ha given watch at a certain hour of
the night as he expected package to
.e brought ABOARD. He pleaded it
would be worth a large sum of money
to him. The boatswain suspected the
man wanted to bring the bomb aboard
and had him imprisoned.
The man now imprisoned is discov-
cred to have made an appointment in
the park with another man, apparent
ly to secure the package" Naval au-
thorities went to the park instead, but
the other man did not appear. They
found note, however, directing the
sailor to meet him the following night.
Daniels intimated TO officers of the
Mayflower that he had reason to sus-
pect the enlisted men of sinister pur-
pose.

plunging into the icy water, swan

youths cried and Weddings approach,

"rll save YOU last, you little devil"
Weddings replied as he ordered the
youths to hold tight while he pushed
the canoe and its embarrassed crew in
to shore.

Wheat land washing Unusual

Veteran wheat growers declare that
never in their memory has wheat land
washed so badly FROM merely rains as
during this winter. Without a really
serious cold spell thus far, wheat fields
have washed as deep this month as
during the worst thaws. The condition
is due to the super-saturation of the
ground from continual rains since last
August. There is no finding bottom
in some of the wheat fields at this
time, the growers say. The condition
of the growing crop is excellent. how
ever where it has not been washed out
of the ground.

Change OF Grade Being ProfiIed

Profiles OF the proposed change Of
grade on Thompson street from south
Of the railroad to High street have
heen completed by Frank B. Hayes,
city engineer. and will be presented to
the city council at the weekly meeting
tomorrow night for consideration. The
street is soon to be paved but the
grade must first be established by
vote Of the council. Mr.. Hayes says
that by March Thompson street and
several other streets in the city should
be let to contract for paving. There
are a number of streets upon which
everything but the bids have been
completed. Paving was suspended
during the month of January.
