Inc American Government recently

peditc its reply to the American note
concerning the killing by japanese
sentry Of Lieutenant Warren II. Lang
don. of the cruiser Albany. in Vlad-
lVost"k recently, pointing out that it is
awaiting full explanation Of tho Incl

Th" Yomi-Uri Shimbun commented
yesterday that the army authorities md
the Foreign Office entertain dissenting
views on the subject. Discussing tho
! governments position, the newspaper
thinks it would be difficult for the court
martial to punish the sentry because his
| action called for no punishment. More
over, it says, his punishment would re-
suit in an outburst of national feeling
On the other hand. If tho sentry is not
condemned it will place the govern
mcnt in the position of ignoring the
| demands of the United States. The
Iomi -Cri adds:
Both the War and Foreign Offices
are inclined strongly TO insist on the
rr"asonableness of the sentry's attitude
from the standpoint that the policing
right in Nladivostok was intrustcd to

that she did not intruSt such right
to the japanese. however, Japan is
! Obliged to treat the questions of policing

The Yomi-I'ri believes that Japan

an apology for the incident. the news
paper thinks, but Japan may refuse to

what they claim to b" an authorized

right in assuming that the consular body

The statement is the outgrowth OF

From .he Record.
John Alexander was down from
Brookings Monday night on business
for his firm. He dropped into the
Record Office for a little business and
in the purse of our conversation he
mentioned the fact that it was his
birthday, and that about twenty years
ago he remembered having had a
birthday party on just such a night,
which was stormy.
On last Friday afternoon at $50

Miss Amanda Dimes, who has not
been enjoying the best of health, left
one evening this week for Minneapolis
TO consult specialists in regard to her
condition. Miss Ones many friends
hope that she may soon be back and
much improved in health.
We have heard all kinds Of stories
Of the good fishing at Lake Goldsmith
but the one Hjalmer Vostad, the book.
keeper Of the First State bank, tells
beats anything we have heard. He
is a perfectly reliable and honest
young man and his story is vouched
for by several others who were at the
lake fishing at the time. They were
fishing for perch and were using min.
nows for bait. Hjalmer felt a tug on
the pole and saw something tangled
in the line hear the bobber. He pulled
in his line, only to find a twentyinch
pickerel hanging on to the line near
the bobber, it's gills having become
entangled in the line. After Hjalmer
had gotten the fish safely IN the bank
of the lake the bloomin' thing bit the
line in two. There was also a good
sized perch caught on the hook. This
sounds pretty "fshy' but Hjalmer says
he is willing to bet his bottom dollar
that the story is true.
