Wer. While some. cf the demands
contained in the note seem
somewhat serious, they were
necessary to uphold the dignity
of our nation, and to remove the
insult to our flag. A non-compli-
ance is calculated, by some, to
1Saean declaration of war, and
if the note means what it says,
by a noncompliance thereof,
war seems to be inevitable.
However, we do not think that
an unsatisfactory reply neces-
sarily means hostility between
the two countries, for we have
confidence in the ability of our
President to bring about a peace.
full and amicable settlement OF
the situation.
Let US all prayerfully hope for
peace and tranquility to reign in
the United States. and work for
a speedy termination of the
European war. 1t largely rests
ON the shoulders of the United
States and other neutral nations
to bring about peace.

LOYALTY.

You can buy mechanical skill,
selling ability, managerial ability
and fifty-seven varieties of SER
vice, but you cannot purchase
one ounce of loyalty. Loyalty is
a precious ingredient that you
sometimes get when you buy a
mans services. It is not includ-
Ell in the bargain, because YOU
do not know whether it exists
uhtil after your man has shown
his colors. But if you do find a
man who is loyal and trust
worthy-who sticks to you,
speaks well of you and looks after
your business interests as con-
seientiously as If they were his
oWn-be very careful to reward
him literally, for such men are
not to be found in the highways
and byways for a price. En-
ployers often say, I'VE expect
loyalty from our employees. The
Beatitudes say, Blessed are
they who do not expect, for they
shall not be disappointed. -

Carthage is widely known for
its hospitality. The people here
are social, and love to mix and
mingle with humanity. The
latch srting hangs on the outside
at all times, and the reception
halls are spacious, and the din
ing tables are long, the pots are
deep and the cupboards are full,
With the desire and the means
of executing such desire. our
town is considered one of the
most hospitable in the State.
Next Monday, the Annual
Teachers Institute begins here
and for a week our town will be
flooded with teachers from this
and other counties. During that
week we have a good opportuni-
ty to ostentate our hospitality,
with perfect assurance of appre-
citation on the part of the teach
ers. Let's all make them feel at
home.

THE WAR SITUATION.

With composure, qualification
and satisfaction will every rea-
sonable thinking American citi-
zen read the note to the German
Imperial Government, which
contains demands for reparation
of the violation of international
law, and marine obligations to
neutrals and non-combatants, in
the destruction of the British
Lusitania, aboard of which
were many American citizens,
on lawful and legitimate callings.
While the narration is friendly
and amicable in tone, it is, in
substance seriously mandatory,
and commands that full repara-
ton be made for the. loss of
American lives, that submarine
warfare on merchant vessels
must cease, and that, so far as
the United States is concerned,
the rule of international law
must be punctiliously observed.
The American people, as does
the President, realize that the
Lusitania tragedy was in viola
ton of and contrary to all hui
manitarian, Christian and civi.
lied principals, and in strict
violation of international law
it renders insecure and uneasy
those on transatlantic errands,
and puts in jeopardy every PAS
senger's life; is direct insult to
the United States government,
and an invitation to war. Ger
many's answer will decide
whether the situation will be
settled amicably or belligerently.
No diplomatic evasion will suffice
as an answer; answering to the
effect that Germany's acts were
reprisals against England for
seeking to starve the Germans,
will not suffice. A compliance
with the terms of the President s
note is the only sufficient ans

SUGAR SHIP FORCED
BY FIRE TO RETURN
Second Blaze Within Week
Discovered in Cargo Of
the Tyninghame.

After flames had destroyed part OF the
cargo or sugar on the steamship Tyning-
hame last sunday. fire was discovered
IN her hold yesterday as she was
starting on her voyage TO Queenstown
The freighter was forced to andon her
trip and anchor of Staten Island.
Thirty thousand bass of sugar Of 100
pounds each were destroyed d.
An investigation Is being conducted
by she police OF .the bomb squad" under
capt, Thomas j. Tunney to discover
whether the fires were the work Of plot
tiers anxious to prevent sugar from
reaching the Allies.
The Tyninghame left her berth In the
Erie Basin yesterday morning and
passed II Of Quarantine at 1910
o'clock. An hour later she was passing
in again, flying the signal ~ u" to
show there was fire aboard. She had
left the Ndrrows only about twenty min
utes when smoke was discovered pouring
from No. 4 hold. where the FIRE OF last
sunday started. Capt. David Jones i'm
mediately ordered the ship headed for
the Statue OF Liberty. When she was
" that point and Staten Island
she anchored and the freboat Seth Low
went to her aid.
The flames were confined to the one
hold II were put out in "A few hours,
but the entire contents OF the hold were
destroyed 10y the fire and water. The
Seth Low lay alongside throughout the
night In case of another outbreak.
Capt. Turney and Lieut.. George

ried to the T~yninghame with Off
cials from the Fire Marshars Of
flee and two chemists. one from the city
laboratory n one from the Warner Re
filming Company of Jersey City, which
sold the sugar. They were unable &c
fini anything that would definitely show
the cause Of the fire. but they estah.
lished one point that they believe is
significant. This was that the hold had
never been cleaned out after tho fire las,
Sunday. Boards had been put atop the
burned sugar and new bags loaded above
the mass.
II is possible. Capt. Tunney said after
bags and sugar may have smouldered
