WILLIAM j. BRYAN
RESIGNS FROM CABINET

William Jennings Bryan, three
times Democratic candidate for
the presidency of the United
States and author of nearly
thirty peace treaties with the
principal Nations of the world,
resigned Tuesday as Secretary
of State as a dramatic sequel to
his disagreement with President
Wilson. over the Governments
policy toward Germany.
The resignation was accepted
by the President. The Cabinet
then approved the response
which had been prepared to the
German reply to the Lusitania
note. Acting Secretary~Robert
Lansing, it was expected would
sign the document and that it
would be cabled to Berlin yes
terday.
Rather than sign the document
which he believed might possibly
draw the United Stated into
war, Mr.. Bryan submitted his
resignation in a letter declaring
that tissue involved is of such
moment that to remain a mem
ber of the Cabinet would be as
unfair to you as it would be to
the cause which is nearest my
heart, namely, the prevention
of war"
The President accepted the
resignation in a letter of regret,
tinged with deep personal feel
ing of affection. The letters,
constituting the official announce
ment of Mr.. .Bryan's departure
from the Cabinet to private life,
were made public at the White
House at 6 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon.

THINKS WAR WOULD END
WITH HOLLANDS ADVENT

In the opinion of the highest
practical experts of the war de-
partment, says a Washington
despatch, an early and decisive
end to the European conflict can
be brought about only in one
way. This is by the entrance
into the struggle of Holland.
which country they regard as the
key of the whole situation.
According to reports received
here continually through of
fetal channels. ;he entrance of
Holland on the side of the allies
is not an unlikely contingency.
Holland is described in these re-
ports as being in an angry mood
toward Germany on account of
the loss of vessels and other
property which she has ex-
perienced. 1t is understood
every effort is being made by the
British diplomacy to bring her
over ta ,tey side of the allies.
The Aod o,an military view is
'Shat> If 1t 89nd enters the war
her army of 400,0 900 men will
occupy the attention of the Ger
man forces on her borders. In
the meantime Lord Kitchener
will land on Hollands shores the
army of nearly 100000 men
which he has in England.
This army would invade Ger
many with all possible speed, to
cut off the other lines of com
munication with the great Ger
man army now in the trenches
in Belgium and France. The
effect would be to deprive the
German army at once of food
supplies.

MILITIA is NOT LIABLE
TO FOREIGN SERVICE

Gould the National Guard be
called by the Federal government
for foreign service in the event
of war;"
This question has been asked
many times by citizens and
militiamen in South Carolina
since the beginning of the
strained relations between the
United States and Germany.
Military experts have figured
that in the event President
Wilson called for a volunteer
army of 100000 men, South
Cardinals allotment would be
approximately 5000. The mill
tary strength of the State now
is about 1000 men and officers
of all rank.
j. Shapter Caldwell, assistant
adjutant general, has been study
ing the question of the right of
the president to call the National
Guard for service in a foreign
country.
Maj. Caldwell said yesterday
that the presidents authority
over the National Guard was
derived from the constitution
and from the legislation of con-
gress in the furtherance of it's
provisions. Congress has the
power under the constitution of
the United States to provide
for the calling forth of the
militia to execute the laws of
the Union, suppress instructions
and repel invasion"
A former attorney gpneral of
the United States and the Judge
advocate general of the United
States army have already de-
cided that under the constitution
the militia can not be sent out
of the territorial limits of the
United States. The State, Tues

Columbia Will Get Chicora.

The campaign agitated several
days ago to raise 500, 900 to per-
manently establish Chicora Col
lege in Greenville and on its pres
ent site, has been abandoned in
view of the recently reaffirmed
recommendation of the Chicora
board of trustees that Chicora be
combined with the College for
Women, at Columbia, says the
Greenville Piedmont. The an
nouncement that the campaign
which had its origin at a mass
meeting of the Greenville cham
Der of commerce a few weeks
ago, had been abandoned, was
officially made known yesterday.
This is taken to mean that Co.
lumbia is assured of securing
Chicora, which is to be merged
with the College for Women and
the name changed, according to
the trustees recommendation to
"Chicora College for Women.

One Negro Mills Another.

Police officers of Fort Mill and
the surrounding towns are on
the lookout for one James Steele,
a mulatto negro who up until
Sunday, last, made his home in
this township. Steele is wanted
for murder, it being alleged that
about 9 o'clock Sunday morning
he fired three shots from a
single-barrel gun into the body
of Ceph Stafford, another negro,
causing the latter's instant
death. The shooting took place
about two miles west ofa Fort
Mill, near the county bridge over
the Catawba. From reports it
seems that the two negroes had
engaged in a card game during
Saturday night in which Stat
ford won Steele's money and
even his hat. Steeles became
infuriated over his losses and
later secured a gun and fired
from a clump of bushes at the
roadside with the results as
stated.
A warrant has been sworn out
for Steele, who left Immediately
after he had fired the fatal shots,
but up to this time nothing is
known of his whereabouts.

men than the classes of last
year and the year before, but in
quality it is among the best ever
to go through the course.
The one-year agricultural
course is specially designed to
meet the needs of farmers sons
who are unable to devote four
years to a college course. An

German Population is 100000.

1t is estimated by the Census
Bureau and the Bureau of I'm
migration that there are 2, SOB, 776
persons of German birth in this
country. This estimate is based
on the fact that the census re-
port of 1910 showed 2,5O1, 333
persons of German birth in the
United States and the annual
reports of the Bureau of Immi
grafton that "a, 781 German i'm
migrants were admitted in 1911,
20,031 in 1912, 29,145 in 1913,
and 27, 1856 in 1914. Since August
1914, very few persons of Ger
man birth have come to America
to locate.
1t is estimated that there are
in the United States 8,282, ,618
persons whose ancestors were
of German origin.

of the community. 1t is up to all or
US, in every walk of life, to know the
police and be on familiar terms with

can be accomplished.
The work Of the police department
and the citizens associations should

by the compilation of charts of the

Of many hardships and some danger
and for the first time answer the ques-

river from the sea.
With the aid Of thee harts the river
valley becomes accessible and ''the re-
