But as Germany has no other means
Of combating England, sea.power and
has no other way of enforcing its pro.
claimed blockade" she insists on using
this her only means Of offence and de-
fence.
That submarine warfare is inhuman
and barbarous is practically admitted
by Germany because it proposes some
notifications, but it also makes the in
ference that war is inhuman and sub.
marine warfare is an incident of war.
That the Unites States note has al
ready had some practical effect is shown
by the fact that the daily reports of the
sinking of ships by German submarines
for thelast three weeks have almost in
variably added 1.-The crews were saved.
This to our mind is much stronger an
swer to the American note than that
printed in the. papers from German dip.
lomats.

God save the president.

just before we went to press yester-
day we received 3 copy of the Pink
Paper containing the announcement that
probably the next issue of that paper
will be the last. The reasons given for
the discontinuance OF the paper are the
lack Of patronage and general apathy Of
the Bathgate people. We have not time
this week but to say we sincerely regret
to learn Of the probable decease Of this
old and ''only democratic paper" Of the
county. The lack Of patronage has been
evident to the printing fraternity for a
long time. The plant will probably be
removed to some western town.

WHAT WILL THE
PRESIDENT DO7
''It Is up to President Wilson," tt
is universal and nonular oninion.

''It Is up to President Wilson," That
is universal and popular opinion.
10 a great degree, that means load.
ing upon one. poor, mortal man the bur.
dens and responsibilities Of 100 mil.
lions of people of the United States, moi
to say of many other millions in the rest
of the world who are equally interested
in the international questions now un.
der consideration.
To the president comes the solution ol
several conflicting and very vital issues
+. digaity of the. nation must Il
kspt, sssst
Tlelives and property Of Americanc citi
Gems must be respected and protected.
The smaller, neutral nations are look
ling to this country to use its powerir
defence OF their similar rights.
We should not 60 to war.
We should find some method of max
ing the warning countries behave then
selves.
If the reader will just read these con
ditions over again and ask himself whaa
he would do If he were President Wilson
he might have to think some to get ar
answer.
Really, we think the people as whole
have no answer. They don't known just
what to do, Because of this they have
said to the President, we leave the de.
cision to you. You may answer right
or you may be wrong. but right or wrong
We willlback up your views.
II We can avoid war We shall be all the
better pleased: If not. then We will take
what God wills.
Whether We are right is question ol
weak human judgement. Whether VIC
are trying to do right. is only question
Of public conscience.
But ut is up to President Wilson"
While President Wilson is an able
lconsciencious man, after all, when one
considers the prodigious issues and pos
sible consequences and compare then
with the brain power of even the greatest
Statesman, it is almost like tossing ,
copper coin to decide the matter.
It would take almost supernatura
power and judgment to make might ane
right take their proper proper
tions in this portentious internationa
problem.
God save the president.

THE GERMAN NOTE

The text of the German note in an.
swer to that lof President Wilson has
been published in the daily papers.
The general comment Of the editors is
thatithe answer is unsatisfactory" Asto
what to do and Say, the opinions are
rather mixed though generally speaking
the opinion prevails that We should do
something. but that something shall be
short Of going to war.
TheDsnswer Of Germany is very "un-
positive. There is some idea Of COM
promise in certain directions. and as in
former notes they again reiterate that
Great Britain is the one to blame because
she began it, and therefore the United
States should get after that country
rather than Germany.
There is NO real answer to the vital
points Of President Wilson's representa-.
tions.
The question whether Germany Is to
continue to torpedo merchant and pas.
senger ships without warning and an
opportunity for crew and passengers to
take to atheir boats, is left without deci.
sion, except to say by inference that
because England has blockaded Ger.
many that Germany has the right to
sink any English ship she meets with
out warning to the crew.
The difficulty in this matter, as1has
BEEN previously pointed out in the Pho
neer Express, is that the old forms Of in
ternational law do not cover the new in.
ventions Of ses wariares OF which. the
submarine is the principal feature.
The secrecy caused by being invisible
Is the strength Of the submarine. Itii
evident that strict adherence to the Ole
international law would rob the submar
inc Of a great part Of its power. In the
waters around the British Isles, at al
times there are large number Of arm
ed ships ON scout duty looking for th,
enemy submarines. Before the submar
inc comes to the surface it must be Ger
tain that none Of these scout ships ar
about, and even fthe coast seems!clea
some such ships might be near and il th'
submarine takes time to, warn its victim
and to allow the crews to take to the boat
then in that time the scout ships ma!
appear with chances that tho submarin
might be sunk or ct least have to de
and lose its proposed victim. f.

TEsTIFIEs AGAINST FATHER
Testimony of Ten-Year-0ld Boy May
Convict Parent Of Murder

Kinston, N. c., July 24-To be ten
years old and have to give the lin
formation against ones father that
will send him to his death is the
hardest thing that one so young can
have thrust upon him. Little Nathan
Hill holds that belief. The ether day
Nathan's father, Cooper Hill came
over to the place where the boy was
sitting with his young mother under
tree on their farm about ten miles
from here, and struck her lawfully
hard" with heavy club. The mother
fell over, bleeding fearfully from a
great hole in her head. Nathan FILL
ran, crying for help. He was gore
when the father finished his CHASTITY
work., When he came back with 2
big strong mani, Cooper Hill was
trying to make his mothers body slt
upright on a bed. The slayer had re-
pented that quick that he cried.
On the witness stand here little
nathan Hill told his story to the mag
istrate who sent his father back to
Jail without bail. Notwithstanding
his distress the lad told a perfectly
coherent story of the murder and was
careful to be exact in what he said:
! He was the only eye witness. lie IS
unusually intelligent for one Of his
years and his testimony was given
without bias; he favored neither the
father who is facing the gravest
charge under the statute nor the deaG
mother whom he loved.
| No one in the court room ever wit
messed a more tragic scene than that
The little country boy sobbed and Sob
bed. The parent who had made an or.
phan OF him sat few feet away from
him, his face occasionally betraylns
signs of intense emotion. The little
fellow told his story of how the
father struck the mother from behind
and how she fell over and bled. Only
one thing he would not tell, and no
amount Of persuasion nor threaten
ing would make him tell. His mann
man had said something to his father
short time before, he admitted, and
that is still determined 10-year-oid
Nathan Hills secret. He may defy =
Judge as he did the magistrate.
While the child sobbed between. his
statements there were lot Of big
men back of him silently crying.
