NOTE TO GERMANY
UNITED STATES AccIPTs kAis.
ER's INDEMNITY PROPOSAL.
Germany Asksd to ExpiaIn intsrprsta'
tton Of Existing Treaty on
Naval Warfare.


Washington, Aug. 1s.-The Ameri-
can reply to Germany's last note on
the sinking of the American sailing
ship VIM. p. Frye, made public here
by the State Department, accepts the
proposal that damages be fixed by a
mixed commission and that the dis
puted treaty provisions be submitted
to arbitration at the Hague. but calls
on Germany for statement mean
while as to whether she intends to
conduct her future naval operations In
accordance with her Interpretation Of
the Prussian- American treaty, or that
of the United States. The note 10 re-
garded ~ putting the noted case veil
ON the way to settlement. It u ad-
dressed by Secretary Lansing to Am
bassador Gerard at Berlin. The note,
In part. follows:
You are Instructed to present the
following note to the German minister
of foreign affairs:
Under instructions from my gov
your excellency in reply to your note
OF July 80 in regard to the claim for
reparation for the sinking Of the VIM.
P. Frye that the government Of the
United States learns with regret that
the objections urged by 1t against the
submission of this case to the prize
court for decision have not commend
ed themselves to the imperial German
government and it equally regrets
that the reasons presented by the Inn
perial German government for sub
mittinG this case to the prize court
have failed to remove the objections
of the government Of the United
States to the adoption Of that course.
CAS- this disagreement has been
reached after the full presentation Of
the views Of both governments In our
previous correspondence . further ex-
change Of views on the questions In
dispute would doubtless be unprofit-
able and the government of the Unit
ed States therefore welcomes your ex-
cellency's suggestion that some other
way should be found for settling this
case.
THE two methods 0e settlement pro-
posed as alternative suggestions In
your excellency's note have been CIV
en- careful consideration and It h b.
lieved that II they can be combined
20 that they may both be adopted they
will furnish . satisfactory basis for
the solution Of the question 1t issue.
"The government Of the United
States has already expressed its de-
sire that the question Of the amount
Of indemnity to be paid by the i'm
perial German government under its
admitted liability for the losses of the
owners and captain on account Of the
destruction Of the Frye should be set
tied by diplomatic negotiatjoa and It
entirely concuTs with the s1ggestton
Of the imperial German government
that the simplest way would be to
agree, ~ DToposeA IN your note, that
each Of tie two governments dssig-
nate an expert and the two experts
jointly FIX the amount Of indemnity
for the vessel and any American
property which may have been sunk
with her, to ~ PAID BY the imperial
German goyesnnent when asceFtained
% stated IN your note. It b assumed
taat the arrangement win include
some provision for calling in an UNI
pire IN case the experts fail TO agree"

1918 BEAT 1914 FOR COAL

Twenty million tons is the Geologi-
cal Surveys estimate by E. W. Parker,
coal statistican, for the coal produc-
ton of Ohio during 1914. On April l
all the coal miners in Ohio went on
strike over the wage scale, the matter
in dispute being whether wages should
be paid on a mine-run basis, as pro-
vided by recent legislation. The law
has been bitterly opposed by the coal
operators, and while during the first
three months Of the year the coal pro-
duction of the state was 10 per cent
greater than the production for the
corresponding months in 1918, practi-
cally all the Ohio mines were idle
from April to July. The Hooking
Valley district then resumed opera
tions, and in August the Cambridge
district also resumed. In what is
knows as the No 8 district mines
operating in the Pittsburg No. 8
coal) the mines were still idle at the
end of the year. The wisdom of the
mine-run legislation may well be ques-
toned, particularly in States where
the markets require screened coal, as
is largely the case in Ohio. However
that may be, the labor struggles COM
bined with the other unsatisfactory
conditions have caused a decrease in
the output Of Ohio mines in 1914, com
pared with 1918, Of about 40 per cent
a larger decrease than is reported by
any other coal-mining state. The pro
duction for 1914 will not be much il
any more than 2O,OOO,OOO tons, where
as in 1913 it amounted to 36,200,527
short tons.

Ii You Were Denied Your
Right to Vote

Would you complain? If a law should
be passed, Mr.. Voter, which compelled
you to remain away from the polls on
election day, would you openly denounce
such legislation? Most certainly you
would Every man would rise up against
an unjust law such as this. And why?
Surely not because he regards his vote
as having any particular monetary value.
He would scoff at suggestion of this
kind Neither does he demand it be-
cause he derives any very great pleasure
from the casting of his ballot, for often
he is greatly Inconvenience by his visit
to the polls. The reason, and the only
reason why man regards his vote so
seriously is because he knows it to be his
right and his patriotic duty.
A mans vote is his badge of citizen
ship. Only criminals or unnaturalized
aliens are denied the privilege. Surely,
Mr.. Voter, you do not at any time wish
to class yourself with that type. You
are citizen. and you should be proud
enough of the fact to come out to the
polls at the coming primary election and
minge there with your fellow-citizens.
1t is distinction of which you may be
Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1915-07-08

proud one Of which you should be proud.
You flew your Country's flag on indie
pendence Day and thereby displayed
patriotic feeling. Now come out to the
primaries and prove yout patriotism.
Among the candidates for the nomina-
ton for Register of Wills for Frederick
county at the coming Republican primary
is Doctor Austin A. Lamar, of Middle
town, a staunch Republican, a loyal party
worker, and prominent and well-liked
Frederick county citizen. He is asking
the Republican voters of the county if
they do not think, in spirit of fairness
to their party compatriots, that Middle
town Valley deserves to be given the
office of Register of Wills for this term.
Middletown Valley contains the most
loyal Republican districts in the county
and has gone Republican time after time,
while the rest of the districts see-sawed
back and forth, torn and shaken by in
ternal and external ruptures. But claims
are of no account without proof, and the
data given below is undoubtedly proof of
the above assertion.
In the election of 1903, when Repub-
lican Register of Wills was elected, his
entire majority for Frederick county was
$685. Of this, Middletown Valley gave
313, Middletown District along giving
him 535 majority. Stephen A. Williams,
pa,ubl;,o, ,pJiJ,to for Eoyarpor oor-
red the county by 1886 majority. Of this,
Mddletown District alone gave him 204
majority, leaving only l3l for the re-
mander of the entire county.
In 1909, when the last Register of
Wills was elected, the Valley Register
has the following to say:
MiddletOwn Valleys Part in the Election.
'The are nine voting precincts in Md
dletown Valley, and the total count of
vote last Tuesday was 1854, as follows:
Republican, 1927; Democratic, l144; Pro-
hibition, 49, Socialist, 81. The Republi-
cans, therefore. carried the Valley Dis
tricts by exactly 200 majority on the
State ticket. To this Middetown Dis
trict alone contributed 154 majority.
The majority in the entire county on the
State ticket was but 352."
Now, Mr.. Voter, don't you think it is
about time that Middletown Valley is
given Register of Wills? She has not
had one for so years, and possibly longer
Remember that Middletown Valleys
vote is about one-fourth that of the en-
tire county, Think these things over
until next week, and then read our fur
Their statement of proofs in the county
papers at that time.
