TO inform the imperial government a

exercised his right Of free travel upon

pointing out that no warning that an I'm

perial German government and with the
high principles OF equity by which they

states cannot believe that the COM

under MISREPRESENTATION Of the orders

II takes Il for granted that. at least

juries which are without measure and
that they will take Immediate steps to
prevent the recurrence OF anything so
obviously subversive OF the principles OF

government has IN the past 50 wisely
and so firmly contended.
The government and people OF the
United states look TO the imperial German
government for Just and prompt and en-
lightened action In this vital matter with
the greater confidence because the United
States and Germany are bound together
not only by special tics Of friendship, but
by explicit stipulation OF the treaty of
1928 between the United States and the

ment has already taken occasion TO
inform the imperial German govern
ment that II cannot admit the adop-
ton of such measures or such a warn
ing of danger to operate as in any
degree an abbreviation OF the rights
OF American shipmasters or OF Amer
lean citizens bound on lawful errands
as passengers on merchant ships of
belligerent nationality; and that It
must hold the imperial German gov
eminent to a strict accountability for
any infringement of these rights, in
territorial or incidental.
Assumes Rule Accepted
1T does not understand the i'm
perial German government to ques-
ton those rights. 1t assumes, on the
contrary. that the imperial govern
ment accepts, as a matter OF course,
the rule that the lives of noncom-
batants, whether they be Of neutral
citizenship or citizens of any OF the
nations at war, cannot lawfully or
rightfully be put in jeopardy by the
capture or destruction OF an unarmed
merchantmen. and recognizes also, as
all other nations do, the obligation to
take the usual precaution Of visit and
search to ascertain whether a sus-
pected merchantmen is In fact Of bel
ligerent nationality or is in fact
carrying contraband OF war under a
neutral flag.
"The government of the United States
therefore, desires TO call the attention OF
the imperial German government with
the utmost earnestness to the fact that
the objection to their present method OF
attack against the trade of their enemies
lies in the practical impossibility of en-
ploying submarines In the destruction of
commerce without dlsregarding those
rules OF fairness, reason justice and hui
manity. which all modern opinion regards
as imperative. 1t is impossible for the
officers OF submarine to visit mer-
chairman at sea and examine it's papers
and cargo.
Facts Admitted.
1T is practically impossible for them
TO make a prize of II, and, II they cannot
put a prize crew on board of II they
cannot sink II without leaving its crew
and all on board of 1t to the mercy of
the sea in Its small boats. These facts,
II is understood. the imperial German
government frankly admits. We are in
fC rmed that in the instances of which we
have spoken time enough for even that
poor measure of safety was not given.
and in at least two of the cases cited not
90 much as a warning was received.
'Manifestly submarines cannot be used
against merchantmen. as the last few
weeks have shown, without an inevita bic
violation OF many sacred principles OF
justice and humanity.
American citizens act within their in
disputable rights In taking their ships
and In travelling. wherever their leglti-
mate business calls them, upon the high
seas and exercise those rights in what
should be the well-justified confidence
that their lives will not be endangered
BY acts done in clear violation Of uni
acknowledged obligations and
in the confidence that their own
government will sustain them In the ex-
crclce OF their rights.
The Formal Warning.
There was recently published In the
of the United States, I regret

America Demands It's Rights on the
High Seas Be Respected by Germany

Please call on the minister Of for
eign affairs and after reading to him
this communication leave with him
a copy.
In view of recent acts OF the Ger
man authorities in violation Of
American rights on the high seas,
which eliminated in the torpedoing
aud sinking OF the British steamship
Lusitania on May Z, 1915. by which
over 100 American citizens lost their
lives, IL is clearly wise and desirable
that the government Of the United
States and the imperial German gov
eminent should come to a clear and
full understanding as to the grave
situation which has resulted.
Otfenses Compisined o.
The sinking OF the British passen-
ger steamer Falaba by a German sub
marine on March rs. through which
Leon c. Thrasher, an American citi-
zen, was drowned the attack on
April rs on the American vessel
Gushing by a German aeroplane; the
torpedoing on May OF the American
vessel Gulflight by German sub
marine, as result of which two or
more American citizens met their
death; and, finally, the torpedoing
and sinking OF the steamship LUST
tania, constitute a series of events
which the government Of the United
States has observed with growing
concern. distress and Amusement.
Recalling the humane and en-
lightened attitude hitherto assumed
by the imperial German government
in matters Of international right, and
particularly with regard to the free
dom OF the seas: having learned TO
recognize the German views and the
German influence in the field OF in
ternational obligation as always en-.
gagged upon the side of justice and
humanity; and having understood the
instructions Of imperial German gov
ernments to its naval commanders to
be upon the same plane Of humane
action prescribed by the naval codes
Of all other nations, the government
OF the United States was loath to
believe-it cannot now bring itself
to believe-that these acts, 30 abso-
lutely contrary to the rules, the prac-
tees and the spirit Of modern war
fare. could have the countenance or
sanction of that great government.
Duty to Address Germany.
ut feels It to be its duty, therefore,
to address the imperial German gov
eminent concerning them with the
utmost frankness. and in the earnest
hope that 1t is not mistaken in en-
pecting action on the part of the i'm
perial German governme nt which will
correct the unfortunate impressions
which have been created and vindi~
cate once more. the position Of that
government with regard to the sacred
freedom Of the seas.

THE government of the United
States has been apprised that the inn
perial German government con-
sidered itself to be obliged by the
extraordinary circumstances OF the
present war and the measures
adopted by their adversaries In seek
ing to cut Germany off from all COM
merce, to adopt methods Of retalia-
ton which go much beyond the ordl-
nary methods Of warfare at sea, in

Announcement has been made that
DR.. ]. J. Nicely, for mrny years con-
nected with the asylum at Bolivar end
for several years superintendent Of
that institution, will again seek the
position under the incoming democratic
administration. The manner in which
he was removed by Hooper and his
crowd did not set we'll on the people Of
this part Of the state, regardless of
party alignments, and his restoration
to the position would be just what
should be brought about. His services
were eminently satisfactory to all leg
islative investigating committees that
had visited the institution each two
years, but Hooper's auditor was alberto
trump up sufficient methods of book
keeping with which he did not agree
to convince his chief that DIR. Nicely
should be removed. To remove him 1t
was first necessary to remove the board
Of management, and Hooper proceeded to
do this and put in men whose vote he
could dictate for removing DR.. Nicely
and choosing bis successor. He offered
one Of the trustees places to j. r.
Reeves who saw what Hooper wanted
and refused to be tool for him. Let
DR.. Nicely be restored to his position
as superintendent.
