SEDIIONTSHELD DUE T0 NEGLECT National Policy Partly Responsi- ble, Says Jurist in Sentencing Naturalized German, SEES DAY OF JUDGMENT Judge Amidon-of North Dakota Deliv- ers Talk on Patriotism at Close of Trial of New Salem Minister’ at Bismarck, N. D. e “ Rev. J. Fontana, pastor of the Ger- man Evangelical church, New Salem, N. D.,, has been or- trial at Bismarck for the past two weeks. He is charged with ~having uttered from time to time ‘séditious language for the purpose of interfering with the military activities of the government. The jury returned a verdict of guilty against. him last Thursday. United States Attorney Hildreth moved for sentence Monday _morning at 10 o'clock.’ In passing sentence Judge Amidon said in part:-- < « The Oath of Alleglance. “You received your final papers as a citizen in 1898. By the oath which you then took you renounced and abjured. all. .allegiance to Germany, and. to ‘the emperor: of Germany, and swore: that you would bear- true faith and ' allegiance to:the United States. What didsthat mean? That you would set about earnestly growing an Amer: ican soul, and put away your German- soul:=¢ That':is swhat your oath of al- legiance meant. -~ # “Have you done that? I do not think you have. .You have. cherished ‘everything German, and stifled every- thing American. You have preached Gérman, -prayed -German, read Gers’ man, sung German. Every thought of ‘'your mind and every emotion ‘of your-hieart through all these years has been German. Your body has been in America, but your life has been in Germany:- If you were set: down" in Prussia today, you would be in har- mony with your -environment.’ It wguld fit you just as a flower fits the ledf and stem of the plant on which it grows. “You_have influenced others who have been under your ministry to do the same thing.. You said you would eease to”cherish your German soul, and that you would begin to build up inside of you an American soul. That meant that you would begin the study of American life and history; you would open your mind and heart to all of its influences; that you would try to iunderstand its ideals and pur- poses, and love them; that you would try to build up inside of yourself a whole group of feelings for the United States, the same ‘as you felt towards the Fatherland when you left Ger- many. “Made In Germany. “There have been a good many Germans before me in the last month. They have livad in this country, like yourself, 10, 20, 30, 40 years, and they had to give their evidence through an interpreter. It has been an impres- sive part of the trial. As I locked at them and-tried, as best I could, to understand them, there was written all over every one of them, ‘Made-in Germany.” American life had not dimmed that mark in,the least. It stood there as bright and fresh as the inscription upon a new coin. “I do not blame you and these men alone. I blame myself. I blame \my coim}ry. We urged you to come; we welcomed you; Wwe gave you oppor- tunity; we gave you land; we con- ferred upon you the diadem of Amer- jcan citizenship—and then we left you. We- paid no attention to what you have been doing. “And now the world war has thrown a searchlight upon our national life, and what have we discovered? We find all over these United States; in groups, little Germanies, little Italies, little -Austrias, little Norways, little Russias. These foreign people have thrown a circle about themselves, and instead of keeping the oath they took that they would try to grow Ameri- can souls inside of them, they' have studiously striven to exclude every- thing American, and to cherish every- thing foreign., * ¢ & “The court finds and adjudges that you are guilty under each count of the indictment, and as A punishment therefor, it is further adjudged that you be imprisoned in‘the fgderal peni: tentiary at Leavenworth for the term of three years. The sentences under the three counts pf the indictment are to run concurrently and not suc- cessively.”—From the Minneapolis Tribuvne. Kerosene Found Effective. Investigations have been carried on to. discover romedies for insectswhich damage such forest products as tele- graph poles. railroad ties and tool handles. With hardwood products liable to atiack by the so-calied pow- derpost beetles it:has been found ‘that kerosene -and linseed oii are effeetive repellents against these insects. All of Tomato Utilized.

'With the growth of uanti-German feeling In Rugsia early in the war there was developed a dislike for the name. St. Petersburg, which was of German ovigin and termination. The czar, in opening the duma, said: “Thé ‘German empire and later Austrin-Huns have declared war on Russia. e tremendous outbyrst of patriotic sentiment, of love and loyalty te the throne—which, llke a tempest, trav- ersed our entire land—is to me, as, It is to you, a pledge. I hope that the greut Russin will conduct to a happy conclusion ‘the war which the Lord has gent.” - One of the first things the duma did wits to change the German< sounding name St. Petersburg to the avie word Petrograd. First Woman Legislator.
