New York, Sept. 1.-The hard and
intricate road towards peace in Europe
continues to be tested by the bellige'

gotiations, made this week by the editor

produced in the Vissicn Zeitung Of Ber-
lin, meets no scorn. Comments regard

Secretary Lansing's Comment.
Commenting upon Won Bernstorffs
note, Secretary Lansing would only say
"That in view Of its clearness it seemed
than it appeared to ''be recognition OF
the fundamental principles for which
we have contended"
without waiting to make a written
translation of his memorandum from
the foreign office, Ambassador Won
Bornstorff hurried to tho state de-
partment after arranging for confer
ence. Having delivered his oral mes-
sage he raced by automobile back to
the embassy and there drafted II in
English. The note was then dis-
patched with all speed TO the state de-
pnrtment by special messenger.
England Must Yield Now.
Diplomats hoped, and some believed,
this action Of Germany may prove to
be the initial step toward ending tho
war The sweeping character Of the
concessions are more than anyone look
cd for. II was pointed out the con-
cessions we're really made to the allies
as well as to the United States.
II would place Great Britain In a
difficult and ungacious position, some
declared, II, after Germany has yielded,
England should refuse to modify her
blockade.

House, quoted Chief Justice White "a

Petrograd, Sept. Heavily rein
forced, the Russian forces in Galicia are
on the offensive against the Austro-
Germans and in succession of strong
attacks are threatening to roll up the
right flank of the enemy.
Dispatches here today Indicated that
the Slavs have not only brought the

en- the Austro- Germans back nearly a
mile.
Violent attacks were directed against
the Russian lines by the Teutons when
their new offensive was launched in
Galicia last week, but official and un-
official reports here agree that the
Slav lines held we'll. With the re-
pulse of the AustroG Germans, coun-

satisfactory by the general staff In
The BrestLitovsk rogron the Slav rear
guards are offering determined resist

retreat on this southeastern front and
along the Galcian border is in conform

which was made when Brest-Litovsk
was evacuated. The Austro-German
troops in Galicia have apparently been
strongly reinforced, but additional mu

Diplomatic Resulting Gemanys
Warfare
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1915-09-01
BY @. P. Stewart.

Washington, Sept l.--Germany today
officially accepted Americas terms In
the controversy growing out Of the sub
marine warfare.
Ambassador Won Bernstorff, acting
for tho Berlin foreign office, Informed
the state department that honcefOrward
the kaiser's submarines attacks will
conform with America's Interpretation
Of international law.
Germany's 's reply to the last Lusitanio
note forwarded by the administration
will give assurance that no more liners
will be torpedoed without warning pro
yided they do not attempt to escape OF
resist the submarine.
Neither will liners be sunk without
safety TO the lives Of non-cOmbatants
which assurance carried with 1t the i'm
plcation Of visit and search and allow
ance of ample time in which non.com
batants may be removed before u shiI
is sent TO the bottom.
The state department was further in
formed that Germany adopted thi
policy before the liner Arabic was tor
pedoed and sunk. This amounts to
practical disavowal Of the destruction
Of the White Star liner which resultc'
in the loss Of two American lives.
Upon receiving instructions from tn
Berlin foreign office as to the informn
tion that should be given this govern
ment, Ambassador Won Bernstorff mp
peared at the state department fiftee
minutes before the time set for sched
uled conference with Secretary Lans
ing. He first informed the secretar,
Of Germany's acceptance Of all Amer
lean demands orally. Returning to th
embassy, he then prepared a note t
Secretary Lansing, putting in writin
the full acceptance Of this government
terms as contained in the Lusitania rC
ply.

ELECTRIC THEATRE

The Electric theatre now operated by
Walter Shay and Vern Whitcomb.
opened under the new management last
Friday evening with an excellent pro-
gram. A large crowd was in attend
ance, and it was pleasure to rest in
the cool, recently renovated building,
watching the clear cut, unwavering
pictures. Mr.. WhitcomD is a good op-
orator, and the Electric reels show the
result of his practiced hand. There
was faint odor of new paint in the
building, a clean, not displeasing
smell. Electric fans buzzed, and the
new Ventilating system pumped fresh
air in the room continually.
On Monday and Tuesday the Electric
will show the great picture, "The Mas
ter Mind, in five reels. The story in
brief is as follows:
Pledged to revenge the execution of
his brother, whom the district attorney
convicted and caused to be electrocut-
ed, Henry Allen, formidable head of a
gang of crooks and known as "The
Master Mind" educates his cleverest
female crook and causes her to seek
out and fsscinate the district attorney.
1.-The Master Mind" sends the fe-
male crook to Paris, then tells the dis
trict attorney that he will avenge the
death of his brother. "You will re-
ceive the four aces, and when you get
the ace of spades, death will be nigh. A"
The district attorney falls in love
with and marries the crook. The Mas
ter Mind manufactures a family for
her, from his array Of criminals, ther

study of this exhibit business since the
opening of the Portland Land Show,
and am convinced that for us TO ex-
hibit at Salem would be needless ex-
pense. don't believe | would favor
another exhibit in Portland. If We
want to exhibit we should get out
among strangers, or not at all. Put
your future exhibit money into things
like the annual Fourth of July festival
and It will do Hood River far more
good than any state or Portland fairs.
Our mound Of apples around the big
apple is attracting unusual attention at
present for the reason that they are
the same apples we placed there eight
weeks ago tonight. placed sign on
them last week as follows:
"Extra-April 9th. These apples
have been on display seven weeks with
out refrigeration. Eight weeks out of
cold storage. Hood River apples are
noted for their wonderful keeping
qualities and flavor"
They are the only apples in the build
ing that haven't been entirely changed.
That is. all the other apples have been
changed two or three times since the
opening.
