(Batablished 1878) << TO THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA What are you giving to the Red Cross? What are you,giving to the cause for which America’s splendid youth is now giving all? ‘Are you, too, giving yourself? Are you giving a little more money than you think you can spare? ‘ Are yougiving up some luxury that’ some > brave man over there may have,a necessity ? Are you cutting off some fancied necessity that alittle starving child may barely live? Have you enlisted in the army.which marches under the white banner splashed with the scarlet cross? 4 Attention of all other ex-presidents is invited to the wholesome example of ex-President. Taft. Nat Goodwin says marriage should be made more difficult. All of Nat’s wives have said he made it difficult. An American destroyer just completed’at an Atlantic shipyard made .38 knots in her trial trip. She ought to be called the Knitter. Don’t judge an American’s Americanism by his name. The only original Americans were In- dians. Our white ancestors came from Europe. On the bill of fare in a downtown restaurant: “Broiled English mutton chop, bacon, Shakes- peare.” There’s always somebody ready to revive a controversy. The New York police have a great problem on their hands, in enforcing the anti-loafing law. How’'ll they know whether tb clean up Broadway or Fifth Ave. first? Congressmen who tore their shirts in con- gress trying to prevent anybody from doing it will soon be telling their constituents how they them- selves licked the kaiser. | WITH THE EDITORS’ | LOYALTY THE TEST OF GOOD FAITH Judge Haight of New York has ordered the cancellation of the naturalization papers of a Ger- ican citizen 35 years ago, who has lived in the United States ever since, and who has during all of that time up to the verv recent past, conducted himself a good citizen, and has been considered one. This man declared that he hoped that Ger- many would win in this war, and, while he had committed no overt act, so far as known, to con- tribute to that result, he has steadfastly refused. to perform any act which could aid the United Are you a part of that great constructive con- tingent of the American army that fights—and wins—without a gun? _ If you do belong to this contingent, are you marching with your regiment or are you lagging behind?:. >: - f : -you doing your utmost: to keep the Red Gross banner floating where .the eyes of suffer- irig:can.see it and'the arms of’ pain may stretch out.in: signal: of their need? : "No one who has been 0 upon’ that: blessed: eross-of red blazing down’ its) States in its prosecution of the war. The court holds that the man’s attitude’ at this time dem- onstrated that despite his declaraion of full alleg- iance to the United:States, and his repudiation of allegiance to. any other country, his path’ was taken with a mental reservation which makes him| ‘ a’ perjurer, and his certificate is, concelled ' ground that it was obtained ‘by, fratts: ; pe - A man of this type—and this" individual is ea” has‘ been ‘over there will ever look| not: the only. ‘orie—has ‘undertaken to reverse .the|’ form‘and- intent of the oath of allegiance.‘ Ac- field’ of white.without seeing the eager little'faces|cording to that form he is ‘required to declare that of tiny, starving children as the Red Cross nurse|he abjures: allegiance to all other governments, feetis them ‘the first real inmonths. . 3. >t 4 meal they mye eaten » Again -will come: the sight of hope. flickering! just 80 much allegiance to the United States:as| "| across the’faces of those who must forever walk within the dark, as their hands are taught by pitying Red Cross craftsmen to take up the bur- den of livelihood. ay * : _ Beneath that banner stretch long rows of hos- pital:beds, each occupied by,a, patient form whose pain-racked mouth twists into the semblance of a-smile as the Red Cross nurse lays cool hands across his eyes. 2: Wavering bands of old, old people _ whose especially that of Germany, his home «country.

DISGRACE |; The writer has an 18-year-old sow who, moved by the impulse of his patriotism, has gone forth) ” to offer his life+-if need be—to fight for freedom 3 and democracy. years seem multiplied by despair, murmur words of benediction as a woman with the cross of red upon her atm whispers words of hope and gently leads them to a place of rest. cus ., Deep-set eyes looking out of faces coated with the powder and grime of the trenches, light up as the poilu grasps a cup of coffee from the Red Cross’ man -as he leaves the trench opening on his way hark to a little rest. ; Young girls with hectic flushes on pale cheeks take on-a new lease of life as the Red Cross doc- tor shows them how to combat the dread ‘tuber- culogig.g’ ) ig Somber eyes of wounded men brighten as the Red: Cross stretcher-bearer lifts them tenderly, for they know that soon will come the Red Cross hospital and the Red-Cross nurse and perhaps the blessed surcease from pain that ether brings while the Red Cross surgeon performs the neces- sary: operation. y * Under the influence of that cross of red long stretches of devastated country begin to take on the hope of growing things and waving grain be- gins to lift its green blades in the stark places of mud: that war has left behind. : All these and more, much more, one who has beenvover there sees in the Red Cross manner which you must keep flying at the head of your regiment unless you would be a traitor to the cause you have espoused. “In it is the living expression of all the love and ideals that are in this world of rapine and murder and grief and pain today. Even ‘while our dearest and best are dying,| even while cities are falling, even while the cries of tortured humanity fill.the air, the army march- ing under this banner—your Red Cross banner— /must carry clear and strong the message of hope to: all.the. world or the black horror of the pres- ent crisis. will engulf the souls of men forever more. re +Hold this banner high so that the allies 3,000 miles across the sea shall read this message: “We come, every man, woman and child in Amer- ica, and we will bring everything we possess if need be and place it beside your lives as a token o:four fealty and loyalty to you and the cause for which you are fighting.” --Playing a waiting game is making the change 80 thatthe:tip is provided for. This week we have received a notice from the : Nonpartisan league accompanied by a request for its publication to let the people of . this. vicinity: know that the socialist, Fred Argast, Governor Frazier and N. S. Randall, Nonpartisan league emissary convicted for sedition, will speak to the people of Napoleon. Their. proposal:to visit, Napo- leon.is not only parading an insultito our patriotic people, but their request ‘that the writer attempt to further their cause is a dastardly: insult to us. The writer refuses to render any aid or com- fort to the so-called “Hunpartisan’ league or any: other like agency which is contributing. to build up class hatred and dissention among our people at a time when there should be but one party— the American—an all American league, or at any other time. During the period of the war. we will try to be as much of a man as our boy and.refuse to give aid or comfort to such a detestable organization as the “Hunpartisan” league or ‘any of its allies. The man who wears a “we'll stick, we'll win”| 0, button with all ‘its tinge of disloyalty and stench, offers insult to the flag.and every loyal citizen he meets, if he is fully acquainted with ‘all that it represents. If the entire membership of the U. S. Loyalty league is sincere there won’t be much left of the Nonpartisan league after the coming primary elec- tion; as we believe the matter of $16 and the privilege of putting Townley and his dupes back into power will not stand in the way of express- ing at the polls their stand for men whose loyalty has not—and never will be—questioned. Now wait for the howl of the coyotes in each neighborhood who busy themselves as “brother farmers” to get’ their neighbors application—and $16—of which the coyote receives one-third. No, not that we don’t need the money for the advertising space we may have to sell, but please note that at the head of one of our columns we have an inscription which states that this paper has enlisted with America for the period of the war. That inscription means just what it says. The present governor of North Dakota. will be welcomed here by only those whose sympathies run with the socialists, I. W. W. and pro-Germans, a fact which thousands of people will admit, but which they fear to assert.
