GERMANY'S REPLY.

Germany offers this nation a meth
cd whereby Americans can be pro-
tected on the high seas.
The question now resolves itself
into an issue whether this abridges
any OF our rights conferred by inter-
national law, which, by the way, is
a very fragile and changeable edict
in these days Of the submarine and
other new instruments of war. They
al. post-date most Of the so-called
law of the nation.
No one has yet made it very clear
whether international law protects
neutrals travelling upon belligerent
merchantmen carrying munitions Of
war. ,,'y7' .. -. -"'
President Wilson's demand in brief
is as follows: % ~"
This government has already TAX
on occasion to inform the imperial
German government that it cannot
admit the adoption Of such measures
or such a warning Of danger to oper-
ate as in any degree an authorization
Of the rights of American shipmas-
tiers or Of American citizens bound
on lawful errands as passengers on
merchant ships of belligerent nation
atty; and that it must hold the i'm
perial German government to a strict
accountability for any infringement
Of those rights, intentional or incl
dental"
The diplomatic issue between the
two nations hinges upon the follow
ing position of the German imperial
government:
"In particular the imperial govern
ment is unable to admit that Ameri-
can sitizens can protect an enemy
ship through the mere fact of their
presence on board" ....
All other considerations have been
swept aside. Germany assures us
other friendship and her willingness
to meet us half way in making the
sea safe for neutrals to travel. Few
believed Germany would abandon her
submarine warfare or would agree
with us that the presence Of neutrals
on belligerent ships protected them
against the attack of the submersi-
bles.
There is still room for compromise.
Two alternatives press themselves
upon this nation. One is to accept
with some revision, the plan suggest
ed by Germany to insure safe pas
cage for neutrals on the high sea.
The other is to insist on the recogni,
ton Of the rights of neutrals as set
forth in the administrators several
notes, with all the grave complica-
lions that would naturally follow.
But is the sinking Of the Lusitania
the first breach CT international law
affecting n%eutrals?a
Has not the administration" been
lax in it's attitude toward British in
reference with neutral trade?
There is resentment everywhere
among neutrais against the brutal
submarine warfare.
There is also resentment against
British interference with American
commerce and other neutral trade.
Before taking any step that will
bring this nation nearer to the Euro
pean vortex, thousands naturally will
ask why we insist on u rights where
Germany is affected more vigorously
than where the Allies are involved?
This nation is against war. There
is no sentiment beyond the Atlantic

states for embroiling ourselves in
the European conflict in order tc
seek thereby the recognition OF the
rights of Americans to travel on bel
ligerent merchantmen carrying NUM-
tons of war.
Eastern papers have branded the
German note as insulting. Its tone
is respectful in the extreme. That
there is genuine regret in many quar-
ters because the note is evasive is
natural, but this disappointment is
not tinged with anger. The last word
has not been spoken.
Contrary TO some comment upon
the note, Germany offers to accept
the United States as an intermediary
for the discussion between belliger-
ents Of the maritime war.
There is every reason to hope that
a common ground Of agreement will
be found between the two nations
bound, as they are, by close tie; of
friendship.
This nation hopes the administra-
ton will exhaust every avenue OF set
Element.
Failing in this, We are all Ameri'
cans and will face the final decision
as true patriots.

.UPLIFT WORK IN
v. VA. COAL FIELDS
VIII Erect Bath House At
Mine Entrance Near
Huntington.

HUNTINGTON. ". Va, July 29.-
The oft.repeated complaint made
against coal corporations that they
take no human interest in their en-
ployes. if ever justified, is becoming
less and less so.
Thousands of dollars are spent an
nually by many Of the coal corpora
tions for civic hetterments, conVen'
fences and amusements for the work
men. churches. Sunday Schools
schools and teachers.
One Of the recent examples of the
manifestation Of this modern spirit Is
reported by the Raleigh county pa
pers, the Gulf SmokeleSS Coal Com
pany being the object OF an extended
complimentary article in the Berkeley
Messenger
Recently eight valuable prizes we're
offered by the Gulf SmOkeless Coal
Company TO their employees. Four OF
them have hen awarded TO white en-
ployes and four OF equal value to col
ored employees. The awards were for
the best gardens and Premises. the
first prize being $1,000; the second
prize $500; third prize $1,000 and
fourth prize $500. The committee
selected for the purpose made the
wards recently. The result of the
contest was that practically every
housekeeper in the community enter.
ed into the rivalry. and the town G:
Tams, where the company operates, is
a thing OF beauty.
And now the Gulf Smokeless Com
pany comes forward with another eff
fort to contribute to the comfort and
convenience Of the employees. They
will construct n modern and well
equipped bath house near the mine
mouth. II will be o. brick and cement
and will have twelve shower baths in
addition TO number OF basins. all
equipped with hot and cold water.
This will enable the miners and mine
workers TO 80 TO and from the mines
in clean, dry clothing, thus reducing
their exposure 10 illness consequent
to coming into the air while wearing
their wet mine clothing.
A small monthly fee will be charged
for this service.
It is to be observed that at all OF
the LllulHS lUWlS lllIA IIaNe USCA DAAtN
in recent years, much greater atten.
ton has been paid to the comfort and
convenience Of the employees. Tho
houses are better built. better lighted
and more commodious than in former
times. Usually they are equipped
with electric lights and running water.
Whenever it is possible to do sc suf
ficient ground is set apart at each
place OF residence to permit gardening
and chicken raising.
The incident cited at Tams, where
w. P. Tams has charge. is but one out
of many in the various coal fields. The
tendency OF the times is to make the
employment at coal mines attractive
to men and women. Many OF them
afford baseball and tennis grounds,
and wherever innocent amusements
may be resorted to to the encourage.

NEW YORK. July 29.-I have
talked with Theresa Planeta. cave-wiie
OF New York city. and have watched
the wondering black eyes of her two
year.old son. Louis, as his tiny hands
reached out to clasp and play with
the first ray or sunlight he had ever
seen.
For this baby and his mother have
lust been rescued by New York de
tectives and an agent OF the Children's
Society from a Theoretically sealed
and darkeaed tenement in which they
were kept prisoners by the husband
and father, Joseph P!aneta, for four
horrible years.
Little Louis has never been beyond
the squalid twilight Of the three mis-
cradle rooms into which he and his
mother were padlocked every morn
ing when Joseph Planeta left for the
cigar store OF which Of which he is
the prosperous proprietor. until he
was taken from them al the piston

When the first dancing ray brough;

gloom of the artificial cave in which
he and his mother were imprisoned

uttered strange imperious sounds
the sort Of sounds by which happier
babies make known their desire for

any other rare wonder of babyhood.
Louis saw his first sun day when

that, properly applied and backed by
