hostile to Great Britain, which, more
over. would be little short of suicide.
Even had she no engagement toward
France, it is likely tina her position to-
ward Great Britain would all the same
have led her to assume the attitude she
did at Algeciras. which Notwithstanding
the assertions of the German press. did
not involve any lack OF loyalty to the
triple alliance. When Count Goluchow-
sky first assumed office and proposed to
Germany tina the two allies should ex-
tend to the field of diplomacy the spirit

reality is of an essentially military char
acter. Germany showed little disposition
to do what she now reproaches italy fer
not doing.

In anticipation of the r~emode,ing of

entered into a contract with the Globe
Press Association of New York. one of
the foremost news bureaus in the coun-
try, for a cable and telegraphic service,
besides the present geographic service
from the Chicago Record Herald bureau.
Because of the fact that the new limo
type parts nave not yet arrived. The
Silver State has ordered a brief service
from the Globe Press Association fer this
week. as but little of the matter can be
used and 1t would be a great loss to
take the full service but just now. as the
matter would become stale before 1t
could be gotten into the paper.

NEWSPAPER; to give them the b st
that can be had, and it is entirely with
in their hands as to what extent The

From the boycotting element we expect
nothing; but We do expect to give the
better people of Winnemucca, as well

deserves; a strong. fearless. capable news
paper, one that will become known over
the state, and one which will oe the

THINK THE KAISER

BLUNDER
Italy Takes Exception to
EmperOr's Attitude
Of Late
(By Frazier Dougl ,ss {,

ERLIN, May 12.-The Gcrm.t press
rs has got out of band on the question
of relations with Italy. 1t now 'ages
as an excuse the tone of some of the
newspaper articles which nave ups areG
in the Italian newspapers and wn.ch
have reflected the Francophil inc nations
of the largest section of the Italian peo-
pie. In a mo crate and middle of IL e
road article the Bologna Gazette admit S
the provocation, but recalls is German
contemporaries to a sense of political far
ness as well as political expediency.
Neither in italy nor in England nor IN
France will the augmentation of the
Rhenish organ be adopted without re-
serve, but it at least pays a tribute to
the straightforwardness of the Italian
government which when the csnfeI ence
was first proposed at once called the at
tention of the Berlin foreign office to the
character of the Mediterranean agree
ment of Itaiy with France, n pointed
out that certain provisions of this agree
ment would render it difficult for Italy
to give Germany her unreserved support
at Algeciras. Indeed this situation was
appreciated on the German side. and in
the light of the facts the attitude and
acti on Of the Marquis visconti Venosta
was justly regarded as that of one who
| wished to mediate in the interest of
lpeace. In German authoritative quarters
the Italian delegates conduct was never
unfavorably criticized. although it must
be admitted that a large section OF the
Herman pres after e~ndeavoring TO make
out that Italy would and must support
Germany, gave vent TO it's unintelligent
disappointment in the harshest accusa-
tons and reproaches.
1t is this German pres campaign rather
than the telegram of the Emperor Will
liam to Count G-oluchowskino which has
revived the anti-German polemics in
Italy. and. has led not only to an UNI
favorable Interpretation OF the telegram
itself, but also to the belief that in the
highest and in many other German quar-
tiers there has been an inexplicab.e alb
lsence Of sym athy on the occasion of the

and money Is being collected in Germany
as elsewhere for the relief of the suffer-

argued, If on the one side or the other
the political situation should be regard

humanity

resist the temptation of suggesting that
If a section of the Italian public or press
feels hurt. 1T car only be because their
conscience Is not altogether clear. The
hope Is expressed that in view of the
unexceptionable attitude of the Italian
government this section OF the press will
endeavor to treat political relations In a
spirit Of greater sobriety and wisdom.

=. S. Senators not Liable.

The question as to the liability of a
United States congressman to pay in
come tax under the laws of the State
of South Carolina has been brought
up again by Comptroller General
Jones. The case came up from An
derson county on return sent in by
the auditor Of that county from United
States Senator Latimer.
The return stated that after con-
versation with Senator Tillman, who
had consulted an attorney, it was
held that congressman was an en-
ploye of the United States govern
ment and therefore not liable for the
tax.
This is borne out in an opinion from
the attorney generals Office and while
the comptroller general does not
think that the ruling would stand the
test of the courts, he will simply call
the attention of the legislature to the
point.
The only return received recently
in the income tax matter is from Char.
lesion. This shows total of S., 429. 81
but the return does not contain a list
of names. The comptroller genera
will request an itemized list Of re-
turns.-The State, Dec. Z.
