GERMANY REPLIES
TO WILSON'S OFFER
Secretary Bryan Refuses to Go
Into Details as to Kaiser's
Acknowledgements

Washington, Aug. 17.-Germany
has acknowledged receipt of Pres!-
dent Wilson'S proffer of good Offices
in mediation or arbitration All tho
warning countries except Russia
have now replied.
Secretary Bryan, consistent with
his refusal to discuss the replicg
from any OF the powers. would not
go into details as TO Germany's aC
acknowledgement, but it is understood
like the others received, to be only
an acknowledgment.
Difficulties Of communication with
Berlin are taken as the cause for the
delay in Emperor Williams reply. All
the others replied several dayc ago.
1t is known here that the Offer has
been received at the st. Petersbrrg
foreign office, but because Russian
officials say they have been unable
to get it to Emperor Nicholas, ac-
knowledgement has been DELAYED.

BLEASE MEN HOWL
DOWN SPEAKERS
by 5000 Disorderly Voters at
Anderson

Anderson Special TO Columbia
Record, Aug. 17.-An audience of
approximately 5000 voters met the
candidates for state Offices here to-
day. The crowd was closely packed
around the speakers stand and was
restless and noisy Disorder broke
out periodically and some of the
speakers had rough going The ques-
tion, How are you for the United
States senate?" was shot at several
Of the candidates. Anti-Blease dec
larations resulting from these ques-
tions brought such vociferous yells
that the efforts of the speaker wei e
drowned in the din, some of them be-
ing forced to discontinue permanent
ly.
The meeting was called to order at
1890 o'clock by County Chairman S.
Dean Hearman. The first demon
stration came from the crowd when
w. M. Hamer, candidate for lieuten-
ant governor, was speaking. "How
dO~you stand for the United States
senator" called a voice from the
crowd. Il won't tell you, but his
name is not Collie" replied MIR.
Hamer This was greeted with yells
and the din increased as Mr.. HameT
proceeded until he could no longer
be heard. The chairman appealed
TO the crowd for order and Mr.
Hamer waited patiently-all to no
purpose. He exchanged some re-
partee with the crowd, but was un-
able to continue his speech and had
| to take his seat.
/ The same question was fired at A
| G.. Brice. candidate for attorney gen.
eral. Mr. Brice said that he was not
/ for Governor Blease. After this Mr.
Brice could be heard only at inI er
walls because of the lusty yell of {

BRYAN'S TRIBUTE TO
 MRS. WOODROW WILSON


 The nation bows with it's President over new.made grave; it's heart goes out in loving sympathy to him and to his stricken family And the country may we'll mourn the death of one who, like the deceased, has shown herself equal to the exactlng duties that fall to the lot of the First Lady of the Land. The light that beats upon the exalted position which she held served only to bring out into brighter and more enduring colors her qualities of head and heart
 She held by her intellectual streng- tn and moral worth the friends whom she won by her gentleness and cor dlality She was . combination of re- anement and simplicity, of culture and the domestic virtues. She presid- ed with dignity over the entertain ments at the White House, and hos pitality was never more graciously dispensed than during the all too brief period when she was hostess. No wife ever entered more fully into her hus- bands plans or devoted herself more completely to his work.
 She was touched by the needs of the poor of Washington, and amid the arduous cares devolying upon her, she found time to interest herself in the improvement of the alleys of the capi' tai. During the last day of her life she made anxious Inquiry about the bill which resulted from her investl cations, and the Senate. touched by her solicitude, turned from its crowd ed calendar long enough to pass the measure without a dissenting vote but the spirit of the patient sufferer had taken it's flight before the glad tidings could be conveyed to her
 Though Mrs. Wilson's labors were cut short when her larger labors had just begun, she left an impress upon the life of the capital which will not soon be effacted, Peace to her ashes; honor to her memory.--W. J. Bryan in The Commoner.

ANNANIAs' HEIR IS
 STILL ON THE JOB

During the Russian-Japanese war the heir of Annanias labored overtime. In some respects he even outclassed his illustrious ancestor That war brought to high degree of perfection many professional prevaricators, but there was one (the heir) who stood head and shoulders above all the rest. He is still living. At the first hint of the present struggle he removed his coat, spat on his hands and began his task with typical zeal and determin- ation. He has already scored two or three notable triumphs, One was that
 picturesque yarn about the Shear water and Algerine engaging the Leipzic. Another was the smelling of eighteen warships. His perverted brain is as active as ever, and his thlevisn hand has lost none of It's cun. ning.-Prince Rupert Empire.

PRAISE FOR WILSON'S
 RESERVE BOARD CHOICE

The showing made by Paul M. War burg, when he finally went before the Senate committee and submitted to ross.examination, was fine one. It will strengthen his standing with every falr-minded American citizen. He avoided no inquiry that was ad- dressed to him touching his personal affairs or the reasons which prompted him to accept the appointment.
 He stated that his delay in taking out naturalization papers was due to his loyalty to his native land; hin posi- ton was not that of an immigrant who had no standing at home. He finally became naturalized very largely from a desire to put all of his financial knowledge and abilities at the service of the country of his adoption and to thus aid in making the new banking and currency system success.
 He stated that he would give up not only all connection with Kuhn, Loeb & Co, but with his foreign banking concerns and every educational and phllanthropical organization. to which he belonged, that his entire and un- divided attention might be given to work in the new position. The pecun- iary sacrifice this involved is said to reach the full sum of S25,OOO year.
 There is one further part of his tes. timony which answers the talk about a "Gnancial trust" He showed by concrete illustration that there was keen competition between the firm with which he had been connected and the great Morgan houses and other large bankers. There were only few banks large enough to handle big propositions, but those few were keen business rivals and not partners.
 A man qualified as he is who will take the position with the motives which inspire Mir Warburg Is a valu- able asset to the country. = Seattle Post.Intelligencer.

UNITED STATES IS
 IN COMFORTABLE SHAPE

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-J. S. Bache & Co, New York bankers, have issued the following statement:
 "The United States is in a most comfortable position financially.
 Some classes of business will un- doubtedly temporarily receive check in many directions, but on the other hand, in some lines there are reports of increased activity in the last few days.
 There are already signs that many lines will promptly open up new chan nels of exploitation. The great South American trade. monopolized mostly by Germans, will be open to American enterprise through the exigencies which have cut of Germany from trade with the rest of the world.
 There is little doubt that American enterprise will take advantage of these splendid opportunities, creating new volume of foreign trade which we have never had and much of which can be retained after the war, when facilities are once established for do ing 1t proftably and quickly"
