REFUSES TO MAKE CAPITAL
OUT OF FOREIGN APPAIRS
Wilson Requests New jersey Demo-
rats to Withhold Anything Like
Expression Of Confidence.

President Wilson through his sec
retary Tuesday let it be known that
he does not propose to make political
capital out of his efforts to keep the
United States from being involved in
the European war.
In a letter addressed through Sher-
if Kinkaid of Hudson county, the
hero of the Bayonne strike, to New
Jersey Democrats. Secretary Tumulty
announced that the president did not
desire to take advantage of the Eek
traordinary situation now existing to
gain some personal advantage
through an expression of confidence. :"
For the second time in a year the
president thus urged the party men
of his home state not to embarrass
him by voting an Endorsement Of his
record. The letter is more interest
ing for what it does not contain than
what it does. There is nothing in the
communication to indicate that Mr..
Wilson would not accept a renomina-
ton for president if the whole De-
mocracy Of the country desires it.
but there is the plain spoken word
that he does not wish his neighbors
to initiate the movement

BERLIN TAKES SANE VIEW
Newspapers See FriendlineSs and Say
Recall Request Admissible.

The Berlin newspapers, after see
ing the American note to Austria re-
questing the recall of Ambassador
Dumba, and having read the letter
rom DR.. Dumba to Baron Burian,
Austrian minister of foreign affairs,
which caused the sending of the note,
discuss the matter with greater re-
serve.
The Tageblatt says the fact can
not be mistaken that the American
government has taken pains to keep
the note in friendly tones. The pa
per calls attention to the fact that
Washington asks, not demands, the
recall of DR.. Dumba, and wishes
continuance of friendly relations.
The Eossische Zcitung also notes
that Washington avoids the more
abrupt course OF demanding the re-
call Of Dr.. Dunba, dissolving per-
sonal relations and handing him his
passports. which, it says, is admis-
sible in such cases.

FAVORS STATE SYSTEM
OF WAREHOUSENG COTTON
Governor Manning Recommends Off
cial Grader for All Cotton
in State Warehouses.

"I am in favor of a state system OF
warehousing cotton" s2id Gov. Man
ming in Columbia Tuesday. How
ever, I intend to recommend to the
next general assembly certain
changes in our present state system
which l believe will safeguard our
warehouse receipts. The changes in
the system which l intend to recon-
mend are:
First. That managers of the ware
house in the state system be disin-
terested parties, neither owners of
the warehouses nor of cotton stored
in them.
Second. That cotton in ware
houses in the state system be graded
by an official grader.
Third. That the state warehouse
commission have inspectors and
weighers to visit the warehouses in
the state system and check up the
number of bales in them, the weight
of the bales and the grades of the cot
ton to see if these are as represented
in the state warehouse receipts.
If the receipts for cotton ware
housed under the state system repre-
sents the value given on it's face, l
believe that it will be eagerly sought
and readily accepted as security for
loans, declared Governor Manning.
Governor Manning said that if he
were in a position to make rules to
govern cotton planters in marketing
this seasons crop he would provide
that no cotton was to be sold below
the cost of production, that the whole
crop was to be sold slowly: that none
Of it was to be sold until the price
reached the cost of production or
Just over it and that the marketing of
cotton by individuals take place only
as their debts made it necessary.

DR.. DUMBA'S LETTER WHICH
CAUSED REQUEST FOR RECALL
Austrian Ambassadors Episle Sent
to Burian in Vienna by James
Archibald.

Following is a translation of Dr..
Dumba's letter to Burian in Vienna.
This IS the letter which, after being
taken from the American, Archibald,
by the British, was delivered to
WASHINGTON. 1t resulted in the re-
quest for the ambassadors recall.
The letter was entirely in DR.. Durl-
ba's handwriting. The envelope was
addressed, Through good oppo-tuni-
ty to his Excellency Won Burian, etc.,
etc., etc., Vienna.
Noble Lord:
Yesterday evening Consul General
Won Nuber received the inclosed pro
memoria [aide memoire, as it has
been called, or simply "memoran-
dum"l from the chief editor of the
local influential newspaper Szabad-
sag after a previous conversation
with me and in pursuance of his oral
proposals with respect to the prepara-
ton of disturbances in the Bethle-
hem Schwab's steel and munitions
factories as we'll as in the Middle
West.
To-day at twelve O'Clock Mr.. Archi-
bald, who is we'll known to Your Ex-
cellency, leaves on the Rotterdam or
Berlin and Vienna. I would like to
use this rare, safe opportunity to
recommend the proposals most warm
ly to your Excellency's favorable con-
sideration.
/ am under the impression that we
could, if not entirely prevent the pro-
duction of war material in Bethlehem
and in the Middle West, at any rate
strongly ,disorganize it and hold it up
for months, which, according to the
statement of the German Military At
tache, is of great importance, and
which amply outweighs the relatively
small sacrifice of money.
But even if the disturbances do not
succeed, there is probability at hand
that we shall compel, under pressure
OF the crisis, favorable working con-
ditions for our poor oppressed fellow
countrymen. In Bethlehem these
white slaves at present work twelve
hours a day in seven days in the
week! Alas, weak person succumb,
become consumptive. AS far as Ger
man workingmen are found among
the skilled elements, provision will
be made forthwith for their exit.
There has, besides this, been created
a German private (underlined) reg
istry office for providing employment,
and which already works voluntarily
and we'll for such persons. We too
shall join, and the widest support is
contemplated for US.
beg your Excellency kindly to in
form me through wireless reply with
respect to this letter, whether you ap-
prove of same.
In greatest haste and respectful de-
votion. c. Dumba.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1915-09-15

continuation are measured by the
men and material lost and the terri
tory abandoned to the invaders. Rus
sia can beyond doubt continue to re-
treat successfully. Before Germany
on the march can fight, she must take
time to deploy. To compel this is
the function of the rearguard, which
gives the retreating army time to
widen the distance between it and the
advance.
Again, the Germans can seriously
affect the Russians in the latter's re-
treat only by direct action, as in
pitched battle or by enveloping the
flanks. The former also consumes
much time in proper artillery prepar-
alton. In the latter case the threat
ened wings can retire much more
quickly than the advancing troops
can accomplish their development.
An enveloping movement, there
fore, involves surprise as an essential
element. This is not and can not be
successful German move, If. for no
other reason, because of their great
preference for the very heavy guns
which naturally go to destroy mobili-
| ty.
Inasmuch, therefore, as, it is ap-
narent the Russian retreat can con-
time successfully and indefinitely un-
till weather conditions stop the pur-
suit, the only chance for German sue
cess is to force battle by driving the
Russians into corner from which re-
treat is practically an impossibiity.
This can best be accomplished by d
threat against the Russian lines of
| communications. So far no such
threat has reached the menacing
point. The Russian commander has
seen to it that the lines to his rear
have been kept open and his retreat
has been slow, we'll ordered, and with
no evidence of panic or undue haste.
The next few weeks Will place be-
fore us more clearly what Germany
may hope TO accomplish before win
ter. Much will depend on the tenn
per of the Gar, on the ability OF the
Russian army to continue to hold it
self together in retreat, and whether
the Car is of large enough calibre to
sacrifice additional territory, as did
| Joffre in the west, in order to be
able to strike back at the most auspi-
cious time.
|, On the western front there has
been almost continuous lombard
ment in the Artois region, north and
south of Arras. There have been,
however, no infantry engagements re-
ported on this section of the front,
consequently no advance has been re-
corded. The most notable event IN
the west has been a renewal OF &C
tivity on the east slopes OF the Ar
gonne forest, where the German
Crown Prince has again launched a
! severe attack in another attempt 20
reach St. Mihiel from the north and
Iso invest Verdun Some ground was
| gained, but the results so far are
without significance.
Official reports were expected thls
week from the Italian from: confirm
ling the Italian occupation Of Rover
etto in Trentino, but no such report
has materiaIized. The Italians have
been extremely active on this front.
however, and have made valuable
captures of important heights. All
the fighting so far has been but pre-
lliminary. In the Dardanelles, In spite
of reports pro and con, it must seem
that matters are at a standSt1l.
There is no evidence that anything
material is being accom- plished.
