APRIL 11. 1917 THE LUTHERANS The Record is glad to reproduce a resolution signed by the presidents of the three great Lutheran synods in the United States pledging their devotion to the United States and pointing the way to the members ot this church. The ancestors of most Lutherans came from Germany and they have looked on the fatherland with longing eyes. Their love of their new homes was none the less sincere on this account; nobody can blame them for desiring to sympathize with their people in the great war untu America entered. Americans of all nationalities have a high regard to. the German people themselves, ana nobody should say aught to make the su.Tering of these sincere Americans more acute. As we would be done by we should do by others The Re mii ii unit- nils iuncieo mui. there was any disloyalty among the substantial Lutheran people of this community.

July wheat is quoted in Chicago at about JLfifi for July options unless they for the new crop in Hickory and this section over $2 a bushel. Shrewd traders in the pit would not offei 1.80 for July options unless they were convinced that the price would remain at that figure when the new crop is harvested.

This train of events serves to suggest how one instance produces another. It also suggests that there are few parts of the earth left, how ever remote, where a German war ship can now find friends. A few years back it was said by the knowing ones that King Edward VII of England was making rings many in the matter of diplomacy. This appears to have been true. Tlie b' first notab'e indication was at the p Algeciras conference of 190G. when t! the assembled delegates of all the p powers voted against Germany's con-1 tention conerrnV;? Morocco, except , K l tnose oi iA.i.isirui. t i Edward organized the entente that $ made France and Russia British al-'jjs lies. England and Russia had been p tradi'?cn.il enemies for many years m 'l v. . uuo c i i i 1 1 v v- til IM iciiui x i v very nearly fought over Egypt. Ed ward also brought strong British in fluence to bear on Italy and weaned that country from alliance with the control nnwera. and ho. mnrried his niece to the young king of Spain, the first British princess married to a Catholic sovereign in many years. !sj Edward, as king of England, hadigi small power in the domestic govern-1 a ment of his country, but he busied I himself with diplomacy and the E g smoothness of his work in that '" p -----r nTM'FTTiiTTrjrggiTTiTFir was nuite apparent. The kaiser, on the other hand, de-i pended on military preparation am was disposed to be mandatory in his attitude toward other countries. He made the French dismiss M. Declasse from the place of foreign minister in their cabinet, and he peremptorily ordered Russia to desist when she ob jected to the annexation of Bosina and Herzegovina by Austria. He! went personally to Tangier and made' a rather boastful speech to the Mo-i roccans against Germany's power and uiuvtviiof unit " iuu io rvitu ii tia tiic . Cfl Agadir incident also gave offense to other powers, as having a dictonal i w tendency. There might be a great deal writ ten about the right and wrong of all these matters, and the reason why Germany is so painfully isolated. The incident of tho Cormoran in the har bor of a remote island in the dis tant Pacific is almost pathetic. Yet no one has anything to say against tho German people. The present painful situation of the fatherland seems to have come largely of a lack of diplomacy. More conciliatory policies would likely have proved profitable. In making other nations fear her, she made them combine for! her undoing.
