Cannot Accede.

The United States asserts that 1t
can not accede to the suggestion that
it change or modify the rules OF IN
ternational usage during the progress
of war on account of special condl-
tions, and declares that the idea OF
neutrality advanced by Austria would
"inyoIve a neutral nation in mass OF
perplexities, which would obscure the
whole field of international obliga-
tions. produce economic confusion and
deprive all commerce and industry Oh
legitimate fields of enterprise, already
heavily burdened by the unavoidable
restrictions Of war"
Attention is directed to the fact that
Austria-Hungary and Germany before
the war produced a great surplus Of
war munitions and sold them through
out the world, especially to belliger-
ents," and that "never during that pc
Rod did either of them suggest or ap-
ply the principle now advanced by the
imperial and. royal government"

am just now thinking of some people
that know in this town WHO would
like to see stand aside and watch
themselves go by, and then l would
like to knew what their honest opinion
is of themselves. 1t would make in
teresting reading in this column if
they would just be honest and truthful
and then tell the story. o, it is so
easy to criticize other people. l know
from my own experience, and so cary
to see the faults of offers. And there
are people who can never see their
own faults. Now, would not be misun-
derstocd ! think it is we'll for every
one think vel! of himself, because it
makes you a better man or woman if
you think we'll of yourself. But there
are lot OF "higgety" people VITO think
they are a little better than other
people, and those are the fellows who
should stand on the corner and watch
themselves go by. And then, there are
a lot of fellows who are doing nothing
themselves, and WHO are talking about
other people all the time, and trying
to look after the other fellows busi-
ness, ard making remarks about him,
who would be greatly benefited by
standing On the corner and watching
themselves go by. 1t would do them
good to take an inventory of them
selves row and again. And then there
are those fellows who are all tie time
knocking their town and the people
who are trying to do something to
help things along, and VITO are doing
nothing themselves to push the old
town along. Now, it would do these
fellows good to stand on the corner
and watdN themselves go by. There
is a great moral in this little poem.
Cut it out and paste it up in your
Office or your home where you can
see it every day, and then apply the
moral which it carries and you will
be a better man or woman, and worth
a whole lot more to your town and
your community.

The Idler: l had the pleasure a
short time ago of attending service at
Clayton Memorial church and iceard a
sermon in the forenoon by Rev. Mr.
Wilson and in the afternoon by Rev.
E. l.. Halfacre. In the course of the
sermon Mr.. Wilson quoted a little
poem which I am sending to you, as
| Il ink you could use it appropriately
in your column cr among your stuff.
A friend in the country was kind
enough to send me copy of the pa
per edited by Mr.. Wilson in which this
poem had been printed. 1 spent a
pleasant day with t.ese good people
and heard two good sermons, but l
am not writing you this note with a
view of writing up the meeting, but
simply to send you this poem, as you
are fond of quoting little poems. Mr..
Wilson said it would be good thing
for a lot of us to stand on the corner
and watch ourselves go by and maybe
The Idler would be benefited if he oc-
casionally stood on the corner and
looked at himself go by. 1 have no
doubt good many people 'hereabout
think it would be good thing for
you to do. But only intended to send
YOU tie poem and not to comment on
it or to lecture you.

Taking about this highway reminds
me that every noy and then We read
of an accident from an automobile. l
have watched the drivers Of cars rath-
er closely recently, and l am satisfied
it all comes from careless and indlf-
ferent driving. And from the speed
lust which some of the drivers have.
tie driver of a car should keep his
hands on the wheel and his eyes to the
front, and yet frequently you see them
driving along pretty fast with one
hand on tie wheel and their face turn
ed around and not looking where they
are going. And then there should be
some regulations as to- giving the road
and On which side OF the road :gou
should go, and in the towns some traf'T
fc rules that will be observed.

1 am delighted to see the interest
some of the people are taking in the
effort to build the Appalachian high
way. can not see now any one
could be any other way than deeply
interested in such proposition, and
if there were a spirit of optimism in
this community and every one felt a
personal interest in the development
of the community, there would be en-
t.usiasm in such a proposition. But
from what l can see and hear there
is not that interest there should be,
and it may be from ignorance Of the
value of such Highway to this COM
munity. o course, there will be those
to say, well, it will not help me, and
what do l care about it. am not
going to put my money in something
to help these garages and soda foun-
tains and Irotels and restaurants" ="
Well, if l was in business l would
like to see all these fellows getting
some of that tourist money, and the
more of it we can get in Newberry
the better for all of US. 1 would give
my mite to help anything that was
good that would bring 62e spending
of any money in Newberry, whether
it came directly to me or not, because
1 would feel if some of it was left
here the better chance l would have
to get little. We need to get rid of
the little selfish spirit. But / believe
they are going to build this highway
and believe that Newberry town is
going to help right literally, and l am
sure tie people along the way in the
country are going to help literally,
and Supervisor Sample is going to CO.
operate, and that the road will be put
in condition within the next sixty
days, and then we will all wonder why
we were not enthusiastically in favor
of it from tie beginning.

International Law.

The principles of international law"
the communication concludes, "the
practice of nations, the national safety
of the United States and other nations
without great military and naval es-
tablishments, the prevention OF in
creased armies and navies, the adop-
ton of peaceful metods for tie ad-
justment of international differences,
and, finally, neutrality itself, are op-
posed to the prohibition by neutral
nation of the expectation of arms, am
munition or other munitions of war to
belligerent powers during the prog
ress of the war"
Pointing to a practical and sub
stantial reason" why the Unittd
States, aside from the question of prin-
ciple, advocates and practices unre-
stricted trade in military supplies, the
note declares:
at Las nevtr been the policy of this
country to maintain in time OF peace
a arge military establishment OF
stores of arms and ammunition suf1-
cient to repel invasion of we'll equip
ped and powerful enemy. 1t has de-
sired to remain at peace with all ma
tions and to avoid amp appearance OF
menacing such peace by the threat OF
it's armies and navies. In consequence
of this standing policy, the United
States would, in the event of attack
by a foreign power, be at 5he outset OF
war seriously, if not fatally, emOar-
rassed by the lack of arms and ammu-
milton, anrd by the means to produce
them in sufficient quantities to sup
ply the requirement of national de-
fence. The UNITED States has always
depended upon thet right and power
to purchase arms and ammunition
from neutral nations in case of for
eign attack. This right, which 1t
claims for itself, it can not deny to

AUSTRO- O-HUNGARIAN NOTE
ANSWERED BY AMERICA
Uncle Sam Reminds Vienna of BOer
War, When TeutOns Sold Mu-
nitiOn to England.

Washington, Aug. 15.-The state de-
partment tonight made public the re-
pl yof the United States rejecting
views set forth by the Austro-Hun-
garian government in q recent note
contending that expectation of war
munitions from America to Austria's
enemies was conducted on such a scale
as to be mot in consonance with the
definition of neutrality"
Though friendly, the note fatty de-
MES the Austro-Hungarian contention,
and recalls that that country and Ger
many furnish ed munitions to Great
Britain during the Boer war, when
Fngland's enemies could not import
such supplies. In this connection the
note suggests that had Austria and
Germany refused to sell arms to Great
Britain at that time ''on. the ground
that to do so would violate the spirit
of strict neutrality" the imperial and
royal government might VITA; greater
consistency and greater force urge its
present contention.
The note insists that the United
States is pursuing strictly neutral
course and adhering to principle on
which it would depend for munitions
in the markets of the world if it should
be attacked by foreign power.
