A WINGED PHRASE.

Over five months ago Chancellor Won Bethmann Howeg let fall an epigramatic phrase The pharase was ust for scrap of paper He used it in moment of natural excitement in conversation with the British representative at Berlin lie never thought for what part it was destined to play Now he is explaining what he meant when he said it.
 There are some words that dull and dead and eiess No sooner said than extinct There arguments that states men deem of great importance that never get anywhere unless they are aborousy transported There are official statements that can hardly get themselves read and appreciated under any circumstances.
 And there are little phrases of susupected vitality phras- es pointed memorable and suggestive that take wings the mo ent they are uttered and fly to the ends of the earth Where ever they go they impress mems minds They stir conyeGsaton opposition defense The world takes instant note of them
 Such winged phrase Chancellor Won Bethmanr-t wegs "us for scrap paper What may not those words mean? Poising one would hardly moment the phrase began it's flight found in it epitome of the whole Ger man state policy Others merely chance remark wl1nou5 g ncance Others volunteered defend it on various grounds
 Today this little phrase is mbedded like dried butterfly between the leaves of must volume in the history of the present war No matter what interpretation the historian puts on hether he accepts the Chanceors present statement that did not mean that treaties should not be respected or the interpretation of unfendy ccsthe phrase itself IS sa1e
 Curious circumstance illustrative of mans inability to con ro not only the current events but the current o as own words He saysa thing and o before he knows 1t the thing IS beyond him. its own master saying things and producing conse ouences of which he little dreamed.

 The products of Aas6as fisheries are well known n shs United States Fish constitute of the Territories grea5e resources and last years fish production in that country eo buted S17.000OOO to the National wealth.

AMERIcAN sHIPs AND sPEED.

The Europe has demonstrated one weakness in the United States nayand that lack of speed For instance the Buecher the North battle the other day because she was to get from the more powerful and faster British crafts yet she at least three knots an hour faster than the fastest oaeshps and cruisers m the American navy The Buechers speed was % 2 knots %ne 9 is the record for naval vessels
 Two of the German ships that escaped Admiral Beatty fleet had speed of 29 knots and the other of 2rom five to seven knots an hour faster than American cruisers
 While the American ships heavier guns and more o them than the ships European countries the evidence seems to point to the inevitable conclusion that American fleet could not escape feet or more powerful European ships nor could t prevent the escape of one that was weaker.
 It is said that many of the official records of Gov Cole T. Bease term of office in South Carolina have been lost That should help little
