We have said it before and desire to repeat it now: that the vast majority of German-Americans will prove their loyalty to their adopted country in -the present crisis. They, like all other good Americans, have been hopeful that war with Germany could be avoided, but now that war* has been declared they will stand shoulder to shoulder in defense of their adopted country. A very few of them, perhaps, who do not fully understand the sacredness of their oath, will be given to a violation of the same, but their number will be decidedly small and of little importance. President Wilson gave a very correct and honest estimate when he declared them to be “as true and loyal Americans as if they had never known any other fealty or allegiance.’’ —Starke County Democrat. Just as the South found in Abraham Lincoln its best and truest friend so the German people (minus the kaiser) 'will find in President Wilson its strongest champion and defender at the close of the xvar. The President has made it clear that America does not hold the German people responsible for the outrages committed by their government and that the American people, without malice or thoughts of revenge, will gladly insist that the new ‘‘Republic of Germany/’ be given a fair and square deal. America has always been true to its great humanitarian principles and she delights in aiding all other people to secure their freedom.
