announcement follows:
with different sympathies on the
part OF the individual members OF our
firm we decided at the outbreak OF
the war to refrain from financing pub
lie loans for any OF the governments
OF the belligerent nations.
Concerning the present Anglo.

Manning Stands
For White Rule

Columb bia, S. c., Oct. 6 -
believe in the rule of the white
people. said Governor Manning
in statement on the situation
reported to exist in Beaufort. II
do not feel that it is proper for
the governor to meddle in local
politics as a lule. but in this
particular case the situation pre-
sents a very grave and serious
question. The Democratic par
ty stands for white supremacy,
and to use the negro vote in an
election among the Democrats,
is setting a very dangerous pre-.
cedent for all future time. |
can not too strongly stress the
Importance of white rule in
South Carolina. The precedent
esta blished by a bolt from the
primary for the purpose of using
the negro voters in the general
election is most dangerous one.
Personslly, under no circum-
stances would l accept a nomi-
nation or election to any Office
at the hands of the negro" SAID
the governor. The negro is all
right in his place, but his place
is certainly not the ballot box.
The white man is the negro's
best friend when the negro is
out of politics, and the negro
himself is happier and more
prosperous without the ballot,
for the reason that he is not
then to be used for the purpose
of defeating the will uf the
white citizens of South Carolina.

Data and figures arc quoted at

ed the growth OF similar trade from

times as large, while in many cases
there has been vast increases OF Am.

The note, which is in response to
the British Ambassadors report OF .
reference at the state department to
the unfavorable impression created
here by reports of increases in Brit
fsh trade with northern European
countries since the war began, sug.
gests also that statements concern

est stubbornness.
AT several points the French troofps
nave gained footing in the secohd
line and some of them even wont
right through, but encountering Gter.
man reserves, were unable to matn.
tain their progress. According to 1he
German account these latter troops
were captured or exterminated.
The Germans, however. admit khe
loss OF hill 191. to the north OF Mas.
s1ges. where the French are not ffar
from the railway triangle, the bos.
session OF which has been of the
greatest advantage to the Germans.
as one Of the lines has been used for
supplying the Argonne army.
1t Is believed here that besides the
gain OF ground in both Artois and
Champagne and the improved posi-
ton OF the Allies generally, the re.
cent successful operations must soon
relieve the pressure on Russia and
perhaps prevent the Austro- Germans
from sending any large force against
Serbia.
Already large reinforcements for
the Germans are arriving on tho
western front and their presence has
already had the effect of slacken1nK
somewhat the Allies offensive. But
there Is a possibility OF the offensive
breaking out on some other section
Oh this front. In fact, the correspon.
dent OF The Koednische Zeituag at
German headquarters announce that
an attack was made east of Boure.
