THIRTY. RIGHTH YEAR. No. 58. DEFIANCE TO HUNS B Before It Is Too Late, Is Waring of Loyalty Orator ATLANTIC NO LONGER , PROTECTING BARRIER “iH Tea Highway, Even a Sub- ‘way,’ Declares Dr. Thomas Moran of Purdue America, basking along in false confidence engenedered by an_erro- neous sense of isolation from. the re- , mainder of the world, is facing a cri- sis which crashed upon us with stun- ning force, so suddenly and so unex- pectedly that we have not even yet awakened to its real significance, Dr. Thomas Moran informed an audience which filled the aduitorium Tuesday night. His message was that old toc- sin/of Paul Revere, “Awake! Awake! the enemy is upon us—we must guard our homes from the oppressor!” ‘Not only, said Dr. Moran, have we our own liberties to guard, but the freedom and. safety of world's democ- racy is entrusted to us to defend against an autocratic power which would crush it forever and banish it from the face of the earth for all time. Dr, Moran spoke at both the Audi- ‘ torlum and Grand, to zsdiences which greeted his patriotic pegods with wild applause, Our iMen Have Stood the Gaff. “Our men have stood the gaff in No-Man’s Land; in their first engage: ments they, have been ‘true, to the best traditions of,tle American army, When ‘a: German submarine treacher- ously stabbed’ the transport Tuscania in the back,’ 100 of our brave boys stood: up dike-men and sang ‘My ‘Coun- try ’Tis of Thee,’ redémonstrating the fact that.

Martin Joyce took first honors in the war conference maneuvers here with its exhibition of the Butts manual and bayonet drill. To see the guards- met go through their maneuvers on the stage of the Auditorium one would have been convinced that for years they had the benefit of intensive drill with the arms which they used. As a matter of fact, the guardsmen used rifles which they never had had in their hands until the evening before, and all of the movements which they executed with such precision and grace had been acquired by “arm work” alone, without the use of a weapon of any kind. These boys for weeks had drilled with imaginary rifles, going through all of the routine prescribed by the Butts manual and the bayonet drill, and only within the last week or two have they had wood- en rifles at their disposal. In spite of the great difference in size and weight between these dummy guns and the Bismarck home guard’s 45 Springfields, the Golden Valley team had .so thoroughly mastered its drill that it went through the maneuvers with the heavier and longer Bismarck belonging to. the Steamship company, yesterday off Fenwick Island lightship, 22 miles south of ‘the Delaware capes. Survivors are being taken to Philadelphia. One report to the navy: depart- ment: says, ten. aurvivora already “fave land¥d at-eome: point on the Atlantic coast.

Only the excellent preparatory train- ing in. quickness by the American troops prevented the projector attacks, the first experienced: by them, from causing more casualties. The attdcks were made within ‘ten ected at a certain wood. Seventy-five eight inch shells of eighty percent gas and twenty high explosive shells were fired from German Minewerfer. The flight of the projectiles was traced through the air and the high explos- ives detonating when they came in contact with the earth. Large frag- ments: of shells flew from both mis- sels, \ : The gas caught some of the men before they were able to adjust their masks; and overcame others while they were asleep in dugouts. ‘Four Others Are Dead. Washington, D. C., Feb. 27.—The death ofone man in action, of two others from wounds received ih action, and a-fourth from a gun explosion, ‘were reported to the.war department Tuesday, by General Peftshing. Private James J. Regnerin; of Osh- kosh, Wis., was &illed ih action Feb- ruary 19, and Private Edward F. Her- non, Brooklyn and David Hickey, Louis, Mo., have died from wounds re- ceived in action. Corporal Anthony J. Schader, Brooklyn, died from wounds received in the explosion.of a gun. Private Adelbert Morey, Lewiston, Minn., was reported slightly wounded on the fighting line on February 25.

The Grack Squads The crack squads consisted -of Capt. Martin Joyce, Corp. Ben Halpern, Corp. Charles: Scharf, and Privates John Ds Boldt, Carl. C. Wittmayer, Arthur Helbling, W.-F. Eberaviller, Ea:Sehart, Henry Edmark, Steve Skal; ski, Henry Becker, Clem: ‘Schwalier, Hi: G, Rostimily; John Jackson, Mike Engbrecht,Odin Olson and A. W. Hess. They came down tinder a com- mittee coniposed’ of L. Lewis and O. H. Kubl.* The: boys had no uniforms, but, undaunted by this fact, they bor- rowed suits from the Golden Valley band, and they came down and carried off the bacon, not only making a splen- did showing in the Auditorium exhibi- tion, before 509 home guardsmen as- sembled from all parts of the state and 800 civilian spectators, but creat- ing a very favorable impression in the several parades which the home guardsmen featured. “That's the sort of stuff the North Dakota home guard is made of,” said Capt. E. G. Wanner, chairman of the governing board, today. “Do you wonder. that I’m almighty proud of this bunch. Is there any reason why the whole of North Dakota shouldn’t be proud of/ them and delighted to think that men.of this calibre are loy- al enough and‘ self-sacrifcing enough to give up their time to this work.” The Golden Valley Guard The Golden Valley home guard was organized December 1, 1917, and it had an original muster roll. of ‘115 members. Since the date of organiz- ation a half-dozen or more guardsmen have gone into the national army, and an average of.95 men now answer roll-call every Friday evening. In ad- dition to the regular drills held each Friday, volunteer drillls are conducted during the-week. The boys are heart and soul for the service, and they put a pep into their work which is good to see., They have neither guns nor uniforms “but they're coming,” as one of the men said here today. Martin Joyce, the commander, is an old regular army man, serving two years and eight months in the Philip- pines, where he did his full share to quell the insurrection, as a member of the 19th U.'S. infantry. Dr. W. -F. Plassman is first lieutenant, and T. W. Salvin is second lieutenant. The rank and file {s composed of the pest busi- ness and professional and farming men of the Golden Valley district. They use the Golden Valley. municipal hall as an armory, and, altho the drill floor is but 50 by 25 feet, they, have acquired.a proficiency which probably can be excelled by: no other home guard company in North Dakota. “We cannot say enough in gratitude to the Bismarck home guard.” said Capt. Joyce today. ‘“Ctp. Wanner and the local men aave certainly treat- ed us royally. They have done every- good time, and I speak for all of our boys when‘l say that, they have suc- ceeded.” The New /Leipzig 4443” Dr. E..E.

If the Germans come, let them take up.” There is a stiffer attitude among the workmen from whom, if at all, re- sistance to the Germans must come, Even though for lack of training their resistance should prove of little value, they are said to be enrolling with enthusiasm in response to the call of the Bolsheviki leaders. The corres: pondent of the Daily News says: “Russian troops, almost without exception, have refused flatly to fight. A division which was supposed to be defending Narva has arrived at Gatch- ina. Ensign Krylenko protested. They replied they did not intend to fight.” WILSON ASKED TO.

NO ARMISTICE TO BOLSHEVIK] SAYS GERMANY Invasion of Russia Continues in Spite of Disclaimer of Aggression WOMEN BUILDING TRENCHES Work with Their Mates in Desper- ate Attempt to Repel Enemy. —The West Front (ASSOCIATED PRESS) Although Chancellor Von Hertling has declared Germany's intentions in the east were not aggression and ag- grandizement, German military auth- orities have decided not to grant an armistice on the Russian front in view of the Bolsheviki offer to accept peace, and the German troops con- tinue their onward march. The Bol- sheviki are now bending every effort to save the revolution and Petrograd from the hands of the invaders, It is rumored that the Germans have reached Luga, midway between Pskov and Petrograd. This is unconfirmed as is a report that the enemy has ad- vanced to a point half way between Luga ‘and Pskov. Meanwhile, the street fighting in Pskov goes on, the city changing hands alternatively. Women Build Trenches ‘Workmen and troops from Petro- grad and troops from Moscow are be- ing sent to check or stop the advance on Petrograd. Women and men are busily building trenches and defens- ive positions around Petrograd. The Bolsheviki government, it is declared, will retire to Moscow if the Germans take the capital. Disagreement in the council of workmen’s and soldiers’ delegates is reported and it is added that Foreign Minister . Tritzky will quit the government. A provisional government has been formed Esthonia with headquarters at Reval, and the independence of Es- thonia has been proclaimed. Chancel- lor Von Hertling said that Germany would give self-government to Cour- f4and, and Lithuania, but it is report- ed from Switzerland that a Saxon Prince is to be made King of Lith uania, which will be united to Saxony. On the West Front . Artillery bombardments on the west- ern front have increased in intensity especially in the Ypres sector, along the Chemin Des Dames, and on both banks of the Meuse near Verdun. On the American sector, northwest of Toul the Germans have attempted un- successfully to wipe out the Ameri- cans with flaming gas and gas shells. Nine Americans were killed from the affects of the attack. ‘No official re¢ognition has yet been taken of Chancellor Von Hertling’s It is regarded in Washington, London and Paris as a war speech and not a peace statement. The Chancel: lor's purpose, an official of the French foreign office says, was to separate the Entente Allies, stimulate peace talk and impress Germany and the outside world with the notion that the military cast had lost its power. Belgium, it is declared, hardly will answer the Chancellor's peace hint. German Sub Campaigs German submarines have not let wel in their campaign against Spanish shipping.
