But Holds Germans.

Mexico City. Oct. 2o.-The holding
of forty-three Germans at Torreon
by Gen. Francisco villa as hostage
against an attack by the Federal
forces has aroused the German gov
ernment to make strong demands up
on the Mexican fcrign ONCE to insure
their safety.
Gen. villa permitted the Americans
to depart from Torreon. but held the
Germans. about the same number of
French residents. ten or twelve Brit
ishers and several spaniards. declar-
Ing that his purpose was to use them
an q foii to deter the Federals from

MEXICAN STATUS UNCHANGED.
Rage Calls at British Foreign Office
% Ask About English Minister'S
Stand,

washington, Oct. 20.-While there
was no change I'm either the status of
AFFAIRS ut Mexico City or the American
policy. an international phase of the
Mexican situation that attracted wide
attention tonight was the formal in :
quiry made earlier today by Ambasss.-
dor Page OF London as to what was
construed here as an .unsympathetic
attitude toward the United States by
Sir Lionel Garden. the British am
bassador to Mexico. 1t is understood
that the basis OF the inquiry was a
confidential report to the state de-
partment. the contents OF which were
not divulEed here. 1t is known. how
ever. that what particularly displeas-
ed both President Wilson and Secre-
tary Bryan was the presentation by
Sir Lionel OF his credentials to Pro-
visional President Huerta the very
day after the latter had proclaimed
himself dictator. The American gov
ernment felt that Huerta's nullifica-
ton OF the Mexican constitution, not
only by his arrest Of the deputies. but
by his assumption Of legislative pow
era had SO altered affairs in the Mex
lean capital that the British minister
might well have withheld his pre-
sentation Of credentials.
Inquiry was directed to determine
whether the British foreign office had
instructed Sir Lionel to present his
credentials Notwithstanding Huerta's
assumption OF powers.
The explanation Of the British for
egin once noted in press dispatches
that the presentation OF the creden-
tials was merely a coincidence and
not antasonistic to the American point
OF view was not commented on by
ofacials tonight.
Diplomatic circles interpreted the
new development as strongly intimat-
ing to Europe the desire of the United
States to have q free hand In dealing
with the Mexican problem.

NO NEGRO BisHROP NOW.
General Convention Of Episcopal
Church Adjourns without Taking
Action--Committee To Report.

New York. Oct. 22.-The general
convention OF the Protestant Episco-
pal church today postponed for three
Years action on the question Of giving
the negroes OF the South bishop to
represent them directly in the house
Of bishops.
Majority and minority reports from
the committee on Episcopate OF the
house OF deputies approving and op-
posing the proposal came before the
convention. Neither report was
adopted. The entire problem was re-
TERED by viva voce vote to a COM
mittee. to report to the assembly In
the 1916 convention.
The decision to defer voting on the
matter was reached after several
hours Of debate participated In by del
esates from many States of both
North and South. The Southern del
eeates were divided as to the wisdom
OF creating n separate territorial mis-
sionary district for negroes.
Those who opposed the plan held
IL would mean ultimately the estab-
iishment of a negro Episcopal church
entireiy apart from the present
church; they declared the Southern
negroes were not sufficiently developed
to assume church responsibilities for
themselves. but still were In need OF
the influence of white men.
Supporters OF the plan declared a
merger OF white and negro cong tega-
tions In the South to be impossible
and that II was best to give the ne
groes church OF their own. The
iamentabie conditions among South
ern negroes were pointed out. II was
asserted tho church had failed To al
les.ate the conditions and that Il
should experiment with q negro
bishop.

EVERYBODY PAYS TAXES.
And They Pay Their Part of Any
Extravaganza or Ineficiency In
Government.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Whenever the question of taxation
comes up as a public issue there are
noisy taxspenders who say that poor
men and men OF small means have
no reason to bother about the tax
rate.
These politicians who make light Of
the burdens OF taxation often succeed
In their efforts to blind the eyes Of
voters to their most vital interests.
Many a man is persuaded that be-
cause he has no direct dealings with
the County Treasurer's Office he pays
no taxes.
On the contrary, in proportion to
the total amount of their earnings
what they have to live on and to spend
the poor pay more taxes than any
other class.
They pay indirectly. but none the
less surely.
The hand OF the government which
reaches into their pockets Is not rec
ognized. but 1t takes their money.
The poor often think that the taxes
they pay are part of the high cost OF
living.
They believe, too often, that the ex-
travagance and wastefulness Of the
public authorities have nothing 10 do
with the price Of food and clothing
and the rent Of houses and apart
ments.
The point they miss is that mer-
chants and manufacturers are abso-
lutely forced to put most Of the taxes
they pay into the selling price Of the
merchandise they dispose of.
They would fail If they did not.
II taxes could be cut in two the
competition Of landlords would quick
ly reduce rents, or give better ac-
commodations for the same price.
When the millions Of American
voters who pay no taxes directly once
get this fundamental fact of govern
ment fixed In their minds there will
be much less federation Of officehold-
ers who spend the peoples money
with. a freedom. and carelessness they
would never thing of IN using their
own.
II every actual taxpayer realized
fully what government costs him.
there would be nothing more heard
from the politicians who are in the
habit OF sneering at the complaints of
those direct taxpayers who know and
feel their share in keeping the public
treasury solvent.

The first Of the regular weekly
meetings Of the board of direc tors of
the Chamber Of Commerce YVES held
last evening at $40 o'clock. There
was a full attendance. Matters of
importance to the organization and Of
interest to the city and county Of
Sumter were discussed.
The new managing secretary of the
commercial organization was duly in
stalled in his position and given his
cues as to what constitutes q live
wire secretary in the estimation Of the
officers and directors.
DR.. ]. q. Hearon, the treasurer,
made report Of the financial condi-
tion of the organization. 1t was de-
cided by the board that an appeal be
made to the membership to pay up
their dues promptly as money Is the
chief item needed to successfully car
ry forward the affairs Of the organi-
cation. OF course money is not every
thing, individual interest, and public
spirit are necessary But there are
fixed monthly or regular expenses to
the organization which must be met
regularly in order to keep up the
same. And there are other expenses
amounting to many hundreds Of dol
lars annually.
The meeting of the stockholders Of
the Sumter Tobacco Warehouse will
