Germany Misses the Point.
Germany's reply to the American
note gives no guaranty whatever that
the Lusitania incident may not be re
peated tomorrow, but raises an issue
regarding certain facts and proposes
a discussion of these alleged facts be
fore the very direct demands of
America are met.
Again it is wise to keep a tight
rein on temper, and to think twice
before giving expression to opinion.
Besides, it is President Wilson's com
ment alone that counts, and it is well
to let him make the nation's answer.
The country knows that its dignity,
security and self-respect are in safe
hands.
Germany says that it is not its
policy to destroy unoffending neutral
ships, and that if such ships are de
stroyed it is accident or the fault of
Germany's enemies. Yet such "acci
dents" are irritatingly common, and
the growing fear is that the Nebras
kan, too, was the victim of such an
"accident."
It may be that the character of the
EDlfOftlAL EXPld^d^
Did you ever notice that advice
given free is seldom acted upon,
while that which costs a bunch of
money is usualy followed out? And
in many instances the free advice
beats the paid article all hollow.

Don't let your children use your
neighbor's lawn for a playground or
a lounging place. Take it home to
yourself, if you would not enjoy a
bunuh- of children' making your lawn'
their playground and meeting place,
perhaps your neighborsfeel the same.
The Golden Rule is an old'rule, but'
it has never gone out of style..* It
would adjust most of the.troubles in
this old world today if^we would give
it a chance.Austin Herald.
German reply will make it necessary ing feature of the reunion will be the
for the -president to repeat the sub- formal opening of the Confederate
stance of the American note. That Memorial Institute, or "Battle Ab
is always an irritating necessity. The bey" as it is popularly known. This
note was plain enough. What it: imposing temple of granite, of classic
called for was plain enough. The
German reply is nothing like what it
called for.
Politeness still prevails. Despite
its firmness, the Wilson note was
polite. Despite its evasions* the Ger
man note is polite. Even thought- it is
deemed necessary for the president
to repeat in still more vigorous terms
what he said in his first message to
Germany, we may be sure that his
phrases will still be polite.
Germany wants to know if the Lu
sitania was not armed, and if it did
not carry troops and ammunition.
The collector of the port at New
York, whose men examined the vessel
thoroughly before it left declares that
the Lusitania was NOT armed. It
carried no troops, though it may
have carried unorganized and un-uni
for'med recruits that point is not
clear. It did carry ammunition
thotign' it had not been described as
anything7
that could have exploded
and siirik the slrip.
If the Lusitania were, as Germany
intimates, virtually an armed vessel
of war," it was our duty to compel it
to intern instead of letting it leave
port. The intimation that we failed
in so plain a duty under international
law as this is more irritation.
Germaiiy" declares that American
law prohibits the carrying of passen
gers in ships carrying ammunition.
It does nOtV It prohibits the carry
ing of self-exploding materials.'
Much of the matter in the German
note is wholly aside fronY the point
evisiVei controversial, delay-making.
It simply increases the necessity of
keeping a tight hold on personal feel
ings atfd of giving President Wilson
a fire'e^ fleM for his expression of
America's position. We bhow that
it will be prompt, to the point and
adequate'.Duitith Herald.
The Tribune editor thankfully
acfefi^w^Iedg^iS* the' reeeipt it an invi
tation to join members of the state
senate on a trip throughout Northern
Minnesota the fore part of next
month. We may not be able to ac
cept, but we nevertheless bespeak
for the party a most pleasant time,
and we dare' say that those mem
bers 'of the senate who have never
visited the north part of the state
will return frbiti this trip more proud
than' ever before' that they live in
Minnesota. Northern Minnesota, with
its many deep, cool water lakes, its
fine fishing, its pure, bracing atmo
sphere is an ideal place for a sum
mer outing. While Northern Minne
sota is comparatively new country so
far as development'- is concerned,
those who go- on this trip need not
expect to find a barren waste. They
will find many prosperous towns
and cities made up of some of the
best people on earth they will see
many well-developed farms, showing
the possibilities of agriculture in this
region they will see the greatest iron
mines of the world at Duluth they
will see one of the most picturesque
scenic driveways to be found on the
globe, and here also will they get
an idea of the great shipping in
dustry as carried on at the head of
the Great Lakes. Minnesota as a
whole is a magnificent state, but no
man fully knows Minnesota^ or is
capable of passing judgment on her
merits who has not personally vis
ited and inspected her great North
country resources and her still great
er possibilities of that section for the
future.Sani Y. Gordon in the
Browns Valley Tribune.
CONFEDERATE VETERANS
BEGIN THREE-DAY REUNION
Richmond, Va., June 1.For more
than one reason the twenty-fifth an
nual reunion of the United Confed
erate Veterans, which begins here
today and continues June 2 and 3,
gives promise of being the greatest
gathering of Confederates since the
war. Coming just fifty years after
the close of the great struggle, the
1915 reunion in the old capitol of
the Confederacy has proven a great
attraction.
Perhaps the leading feature of the
reunion will be the great military
parade and spectacle which is sched
uled for the morning of June 3, in
which not only the Confederate vet
erans' but crack military commands
from the North and South will par
ticipate. Ten thousand Confederates,
more than 3,000 Virginia militiamen,
"The Old Guard" of New York, the
Governor's Foot Guards of Connec
ticut, fifteen military bands and
many military organizations from the
Southern states will be in line.
Not the least unique and interest
lines and impressive simplicity, has
been erected as a treasure house of
Confederate relics. After years^of
patient effort, the building has fin'al
ly been constructed, and its formal
opening will be a great event in the
