LOOKING FORJVENTUALTY House Authorizes the Arming of Mer chantmen Evince Great Display of Patriotism Germany Seeks Justifi cation In Sinking of Laconla Drazll Denies Right of Blockade. Western Newspaper Union News Service Copenhagen. Four Americans from tho steamer Yarrow-dale, who huvo been prisoners In Gormuny for three months, have arrived hero. The) arc Dr. John Davis, Columbus, Ma s.; Orville McKlm. Wntortowu, N. Y.. Dr. 11. D. Snyder, Norfolk, Va.. and lUch aid Znbriskie, ICnglowood, N. J The four men were practically destitute. Tho rest of the men are still held In Germuny. The men reached here with only tho clothes they stood In and will, under the custom of tho sen. be supported by the British consul until It Is possi ble to send them home. They owe their release before tho remainder of tho seventy-two Americans, who were on tho Yarrowdale, to the fact that as physicians or veterinarians, they ranked as officers and were confined In tho officer's camp at Karlsruhe. The horso tenders nnd sailors, who com posed tho bulk of the American cap tives, are still held In "quarantine" at the prison camp for enlisted men at Dulken. The four men left tho camp at Karlsruhe on February 27 nnd traveled direct to Wnrncmundo under escort, where, after being subjected to tho usual frontier search, they were put aboard a Danish ferry and left to shift for themselves. Waslngton, D. C Germnny, In a noto delivered to tho state department by Dr. Paul Hitter, Swiss minister, promises the release of the balance of tho Ynrrowdalo prisoners on March 7, saying quarantine regulations will have been compiled with by that date. Looking for Eventuality Borlln. The prominence which Chancellor von Uethmnnn-Holhvcg gavo In his nddrcss to the relclistag to discussion of relations with tho United States is regarded here as In dicating his purpose to prepare the public for tho eventuality which is looked forward to In many quarters. Thero was much confusion of opin ions and prophecies on this point on nccount of tho continued nbsence of authentic news from Washington as well as tho reports which are being considered in regard to the stato of public opinion In America. Was Carrying Out Warnings. Berlin. First editorial comment of German newspapers on tho sinking of tho Cunnrd liner Laconla, justified this latest example of German subma rlno warfaro by suggesting It was merely carrying out of tho German warnings that hospital ships would bo torpedoed. Tho Tagllscho Rundschnu called nt- tention to tho practice of tho British ftdmilarty "In changing the character of Its ships." "Tho Laconla," the editorial assort ed, "was on tho nrltish list of war cruisers In 1916. If sho has now mot her fato in tho passenger servico, this Is ono caso out of many, whero the English admiralty uses ships fitted for warships one timo as warshlns. then as passenger ships, then as hospital Bhlps. Whether this Is dono for tac tical advantage, or is the result of a shortago of ships, we do not know. "This is a typical caso of the Ger man order regarding hospital ships." Period of Grace Has Expired. Berlin. Tho admiralty has made tho following announcement: "On March 1. expired tho final period of grace allotted for sailing ships in tho Atlantic. From this dato no special warning will bo given to nny boats by submarines." Washington. Tho bill to empowoi iho prosidont to arm merchant ships, but not extending tho authority ho re quested to use "other instrumentali ties" in defending American rights ngalnst tho Biibmarlno monaco, wa3 passed by tho houso by a voto of 403 to 13. Speaker Clark announced tho voto amid applause and cheering. Op position to tho bill had faded during tho day before patriotic appoals from leaders on both sides of tho houso, and when tho roll wns called only nine republicans, throo democrats and ono socialist voted In the negative. Brazil Denies Right of Blockade. Rio Janloro. Brazil's declaration to Germany that sho does not rccognlzo tho submarino blockado and leavea with Germany tho responsibility for all nets from which Brazilian mer chantmen may suffer in violation of international law has elicited from Germany a statement that tho block ndo will not bo nbandoned. It is announced olllcially that tho Gorman forolgn office has declared to tho Drazillan minister in norlln thnt It regrets neutral interests should suf for on account of military measures. IDE 55.000 OUT OF HOGS On His Western Canadian Farm. It Is getting to be u long drawn out story, the way that Western Canadian farmers have made money. Many of them n few yenrs ago, came to tho country with little more than their few household effects, probably n team of horses and a cow or two, and sulll dent money to do them for u few months, until they got u start. Hun dreds of such can be pointed out, who today have splendid homes, well equipped farms, the latest machinery nnd an automobile. Hero Is the case of A. B. Mcrrlnm, formerly of Devil's Lake, N. D. He didn't lenve there be cause the land was poor, or farming not n success, for all who know thnt country nre aware that It Is an excel lent country. He wanted to expand, to take advantage of the cheap land thnt Western Camuln offers. And that same story has appealed to hundreds of others who have had like success with Mr. Merrlam. Hut his story, and he signs it, too, Is: "I came to Alberta In the Spring of 100i from Devil's Luke, North Dakota, locating on my farm near Dalroy. "I arrived with six bend of horses nnd two head of cattle and about Sl.fiOO. Since then, I have Increased my live stock to seven head of horses, four head of cattle, and about one hun dred head of hogs, a four-roomed house, good barn with nil modern Im provements, a feed grinder, elevator, chopper, fanning mill. etc. I have In creased my original capital tit least four times more since coming here. "From the feeding of hogs during the last year, I had a gross return of $0,000. "I first started grain farming, but during tho past four years I have mndc hogs my specialty, and you may see by the foregoing statement for 1010 that I have not done so badly. "Land has Increased at least twenty per cent in value during the pnst few years, now selling for from $125 to $115 per ucre, with nominal taxes of about $27 n qunrtcr section yearly. "The climate here is better than Da kota in thnt wo do not hnve so much dry wind; the winters nre similar to Dakota. "As for farming In general, the grow ing nnd feeding of live stock Is more sure than the grain farming, If con tinued year after year, and If every farmer follows this he will bo ahead of the grain growers In the long run. Taking everything Into consideration, I feel satisfied with my success In Alberta." (Sgd.) A. E. MERRIAM. Dnlroy, Alberta. Jan. 12th, 1017. There will be tho greatest demnnd for fnrm Inbor In Western Cnnnda dur ing the early spring, nnd, In fact, nil season until November, and the high est wages will he paid.

It was the morning after tho night before and he was not In bed reaching for it pitcher of Ice water. Ho was behind the bars of the city prison nnd he gazed outside with n wo ful look in his eyes. "Hey. there," he shouted, ns he grabbed the bars. "I want to see the game keeper." "What do you think you nre?" asked the turnkey. "This Is not n zoo, It's tins city prison, as you will find out be fore you get out." 1DJKSTI0N "Pape's Diapepsin" settles sour, gassy stomachs in five minutes Time it!

The original torrltory of Nebraska comprised 351,558 squaro miles. Out of this vast domain thoro has been carved tho great stato of Nobraska, comprising 70,008 squaro miles; 16,035 of tho 104,500 square miles In Colo rado; 68,972 of tho 150,932 squaro mllos contained in tho states of South Dakota and North Dakota all west of tho Missouri rlvor; 74,287 of tho 97, 883 squaro mllos contained In tho state of Wyoming, and 116,269 of tho 143,776 squaro mllos comprising tho stato of Montana.

Tiro first movo mado by tho torrl tory for statehood was In Dccembor, 1862, when Jamos M. Ashley of Ohio, chairman of tho congressional com mittee on territories, by unanimous consent introduced in tho houso of representatives "a bill to enable tho pcoplo of Nobraska to form n consti tutional and stato government, and for tho admission of such stato into the union." Again In 18G6 another effort was mado to get Into the Btatcs. It mot with a stormy roccptlon, but wan finally passed by tho senate. Its pass age In tho houso was marked with bit ter discussions from all parties. How ever, tho commltteo on territories moved that It bo put upon passage, and tho bill went through. President Johnson vetoed tho bill January 2D, on tho ground that tho fundamental condition was unconstitu tional, and ho suggested that It ought to bo submitted to a voto of tho pco plo tho Sumnor doctrine.
