LONDON, September 17.--Newspapes
dispatches from Washington state that
on account Of the reports Of the Ameri-

Of the press is changing and that Amer

charges have been exaggerated or I'M
founded.
This Is irritating to those concerned,
particularly TO the Belgian legation Of
fieials, who contend that there. is full
proof of German atrocities and that tho
Belgian government has gone on its
honor in making such charges. Ex-

Some twenty years ago when the
Farmers Union was clamoring for the
operation of such measures as have
been put in effect during the past week
or ten days, the people who had con-
troll Of the government denounced
them as lot of crazy fools, anarchists
and the like. But now we see these old
remedies working like a charm, and
saving the country from disaster and
misery almost as great as would be en-
tailed by war itself. For instance, sup
pose the few holders Of gold had done
as is always done under conditions like
this-hoarded it-and there had been
no tremendous currency issue, what
would have been the result? Panic,
and at the end Of the panic all the
property of the poorer people would
have been in the hands Of the richer
people. Great is country where the
people are their own rulers, and where
the many will not allow themselves to
be oppressed by the few.

IS.MOORE MIX-UP.

The staff correspondent Of the Co
lumbia State, who reported the state
campaign meeting in Yorkville, told
his paper Of the Willis-Moore fight as
follows:
NJ. c. Willis, candidate for adjutant
general, was given an ovation. In
answering previous charges by Adjt.
Gen. Moore that the York company
was in poor condition because of his
incompetency, Capt. Willis brought
out an affidavit from the captain Of
the local company, Bert F. Smith,
who stated that Gen. Moore had said
during the inspection, that the COM
pany was IN good condition.
Capt. Willis was saying that Gen.
Moore had been criticising him and
the Yorkville company and said his
people knew he was truthful man.
IF there is one thing l have handed
down to my children, it is reputa-
ton for stainless integrity and any
man who intimates otherwise tells
falsehoOd as black as any which ema-
mates from the pits Of hell"
Are you referring to me, sir?'
asked Gen. Moore, rising from the
bench on the back of the platform
and stepping towards the speaker.
II am, SIR" replied Capt. Willis,
and received blow on the left ear as
he turned to face Gen. Moore. Capt.
Willis then hit Gen. Moore in the
face.
Friends and officers of the peace in
terceded and with great difficulty kept
the combatants apart. An oVerZeal-
Gus friend of Capt. Willis climbed
over the rear of the platform and was
only restrained from joining in the
fight by the combined efforts of sew
eral peacemakers The stand was
crowded with citizens of York who
dispersed only after urgent requests
from the chairman and Capt. Willis.
w. w. Moore then arose to make
his speech. Il wish to apologize" he
said. for the unfortunate incident,
but when my honor is at stake, as it
was a few minutes ago, | shall ever
resent such statement us that made
by Capt. Willis as any one of you
would do.
Now. Capt. Willis" he continued
lis the man who first introduced the
charges and who precipitated this un-
fortunate and untimely incident.
"Ill take any man single handed,

The War In Europe.

The following article, sent out from
Washington, by the Associated Press,
as the views Of an expert of the
American war college, whose name
cannot be mentioned for obvious rea-
sons, is quite interesting:
Belgium is the cockpit of Europe.
The decisive battles of the war Of ma
tions will be fought within her bor-
ders.
1T is yet futile to discuss the plans
of Germany to invade France, except
that Germany may invade, and quick
ly. to avoid pressure on the Russian
side. / have noticed that some of the
war critics have already said learn
edly that Germany in the coming con-
flict will follow her campaign line of
1870 Nothing could be more disin-
genuous, not to say impossible. In
1870, France had one frontier, but to-
day she has another.
Germany is not now obliged to send
several army corps TO invest and cap
ture Metz. Germany is not going to
send her armies into France on the
lines that made Sedan a possibility.
France, naturally, is too we'll prepared
for an invasion which would have for
its object, as in Bismarck's day, the
driving of the French armies into the
battlefield of Sedan.
"As conceive it, Germany proposes
to strike at France in the way that
the Austrians struck at her in 1914,
that is, through the southeast, but she
must also strike her quickest and
heaviest blow at the northeastern
frontier. That is why she is ignoring
treaties and boundary lines in Lux
emburg, and she will have as little
respect for Belgium as Napoleon had
in 1915.
That Belgium is to be the great
and perhaps final battle-ground, is
borne out by the news that Great
Britain will invade the continent 1t
is certain she also will disregard the
neutrality treaty with Belgium and
will pour her troops into that coun-
try. Belgium will not greatly object
to this.
Belgium is historically pro-French,
and with her neutrality disregarded
there is not the slightest doubt that
France will be forced to occupy
strategic points in that country. The
Relgians will make but a feeble pro-
test against the landing Of British
troops in their country.
1.-The strategy of the situation de-
mands that the Germans be checked
in the northeast. Napoleon himself
said that had he won at Waterloo,
there would be little use for the Aus
trians and Russians and their allies to
approach France from the centre and
southeast.
1.-The strategy of Germany and
Austria must take the following form:
Germany must for a short time
present a front to the Russians along
the lines of Russian-Polland. This
will be maintained only until the Aus
trians can come up and protect the
Russian frontier, assisted by the Ger
man reserves. The main German
army which is composed of $500
men, will be reserved for the French
and

Congressman Finley has substituted

for his bill to appropriate 100000 for
the hail sufferers of York county, an
other bill to make it $4,000 for hail
sufferers Of York and Cherokee.
It appeared yesterday that the Re-
form faction in York county was pref
ty well divided up as between Rich
ards, Irby and Simms. The Conser-
vative faction appeared to give pref
erence to Manning; but Chas. A., and
NJ L. Smith, Cooper Clinkscales and
Browning all had friends in the crowd
and the friends of these latter includ-
ed voters who are known to be for
Blease on the one side or Smith, Pol
lock or Jennings on the other. There
are no doubt, lineups on both sides Of
the political fence: but these lineups
do not include all the voters by any
means.
Mr.. Hutchison is making quite row
because Yorkville politicians are trying
to queer him with the voters. The al
legged excuse, he says, is because he
voted for Capt. G. P. Smith in the May
convention. Il was not chosen as
member of that convention" he said,
Tuesday; but / was in Yorkville, and
one Of the boys came to me and asked
me to serve as a member Of my clubs
delegation to help make out the num-
ber. All the Rock Hill voters and the
voters of the county know where l have
always stood in politics. The majority
of the club to which 1 belonged, was
for Mr.. Smith, the president Of the
club, for county chairman, and Of
course l voted for Smith. I did not
think it right to do anything else, yet
some Of these Yorkville politicians have
sieZed upon this circumstance to try to
make it appear that l have gone back
on my party, and the like, when as
matter Of fact they are only trying to
injure my candidacy for the senate two
years from now, in the interest Of one
Of their manipulators Of the scheme.
But they will see about it-they will
see how the people Of York county
stand for their little schemes and
states.

nous vote in the house and senate is
an inspiring evidence of patriotism
of the representatives Of the Ameri-
can people who. whenever there is
threatened danger, forget party lines
and present a solid front in support
Of the common interests" The treas
ury department continued today TO
ship out additional currency to asso-
Citations throughout the country put
the move was looked upon as purely
precautionary. The fact that Presl-
dent Wilson today nominated F. A:
Delano for the Federal reserve board
was taken to indicate that the admin
istration hopes the Federal reserve
banking system can be put in opera
ton within a comparatively snort
time. President Wilson tonight signed
the amendment to the Aldrich-Vre
land law vesting the secretary OF the
treasury with discretionary power as
to the amount of currency to be is
sued under that act. Late today the
secretary sent to the house a request
for an emergency appropriation OF
s3O1. .465 for the printing Of 5000
sheets of national bank and United
States notes.

such relief as may come from volun-

White House in Washington, at 5
o'clock yesterday afternoon. Death
came after struggle Of months
against Bright's disease with compli-

The president was completely un-
nerved by the shock and his grief was
heartrending. He bore up we'll under
the strain, however, and devoted him
self to his daughters.
The end came while Mrs. Wilson
was unconscious. Her illness took a
turn for the worse shortly before l
o'clock in the afternoon and from
then on she gradually grew weaker.
Kneeling at the bedside at the end
were the president and their three
daughters. Dr. Cary T. Grayson, U.

and just outside a door were Secre-
tary McAdoo and Francis b. Sayre,

now in progress; but a very common
belief is to the effect that Germany

is fully as great and powerful as she
thought it was, the armies Of her
neighbors are also great and powerful.
