GERMANY WAS CLEARLY
WITHIN HER RIGHTS.

War is hell, and war is wicked.
War is fundamentally and alto
gether wrong. No nation ought
to go to war with another ma
ton. All disputes between ma
tons should be arbitrated and
settled by some international
court empowered with full au-
thority to render final decree.
But, according to rules and
usages of war, Germany was
clearly within her rights when
she sank the Lusitania.
The Lusitania was an English
owned ship flying an English
flag, under the Jurisdiction of
and sailing under orders of the
British Admiralty. Germany had
warned the world to keep out of
a certain war zone. England
laughed and said, 1--WE are mis-
tress of the seas and will protect
ourselves and all those sailing in
our ships under our flags. !"
Those Americans and others,
who shipped on the Lusitania
fouted Germany's warning and
committed themselves to the
protection of Great Britain.
The United States of America
has nothing to do with it. When
Americans leave their own coun-
try in time of war and deliber-
ately, either for business pur-
poses or on pleasure bent, take
themselves into prohibited terri
tory, declared to be war zone,
they take their lives into their
own hands and neither under the
rules of war nor according tc
rules of common sense, should
the government interfere.

Following is an excerpt from
the Prison Mirror, published IN
the penitentiary at Saltwater,
Mimi. which is significant:
"Why is it that from the first
inception Of our paper to the
present time we have never had
an editor to sojourn in our midst?
Other professions have been well
represented. e preachers we
have had enough - furnish sub
sistence to an African chief for
a year; of doctors, sufficient In
number to depopulate a state;
and of lawyers, enough to estab-
lish a good-sized colony in hades'
But editors not one. " In the
Mississippi pen there is one
editor. The charms OF Mlsslss-
ippi girls beguiled him into mar
'rying one too many. Women
get men into lots of trouble. =

COL. R. H. HENRY FOR GOV
ERNOR FOUR YEARS
HENCE.

One pleasing little incident oc-
Cured on the last day of the
annual meeting of the Mississ-
ippi Press Association, which
met at West Point last week,
which has not before been giver
publicity. E. A. Fitzgerald OF
the vicksburg Herald was dis
cussing the need of loyalty Of
brother editors one to the other,
after Col. ::R. H. Henry of the
Clarion-Ledger had read his
neurological report, paying trib-
ute to departed members. Mr..
Fitzgerald urged editors to stano
together, saying: I'VE have
one editor who has been fight
ing the battles of Democracy since
his youth, and has never beer
rewarded with public office. He
is deserving. competent and
honest, worthy any place with
in the gift of the people, and
here and now declare for R. H
Henry for governor four years
hence; | nominate him for the
place, and ask my brother edi-
tors to second the nomination, =
which was done with a hearty
good will and with considerable
enthusiasm.
Col. Henry completely taken
by surprise, arose, somewhat
embarrassed, and he is rarely
embarrassed when facing an
audience, and thanked his friend
Fitzgerald, whom he always cal
led Ed" for his kind words;
thanked the members of the
Press Association for their vote
Of confidence" and remarked:
Boys" this is so sudden ]
hardly know what to say, but I
have never gone back on the
press boys yet, and never in.
tend to, regardless of sectional
or political differences; so if the
boys of the press, many of them
my associates for IS years, feel
that they cannot get along with
out my services four years from
now, and tender me the nomi-
nation for governor, | do not
feel that could turn the honor
down, and would not. Mem
phis Commercial Appeal.
We did not have the pleasure
of attending the meeting of the
Press Association this year, but
we heartily approve of Mr.. Fitz-
gerald's nomination of this grand
old man for our governor four
years hence, and take great
pleasure in seconding the nomi-
nation. Colonel, we're for you.

| IMPERIAL GERMANY EMBASSY,
| Washington, DC, April 22, 1915,
The above notice appeared in
leading papers in all parts of the
United States just before the de-
parture of the Lusitania. The
notice is couched in such simple
English it can be understood by
child. 1t was so widely circu-
lated it was undoubtedly read or
heard Of by every American who
embarked on the Lusitania. 1t
was a fair warning to Americans
and others who embarked on the
Lusitania and who are still sail
ing for Europe on steamers OF
England and her allies, yet
our government changing it's po-
sition as was, indicated by the
vast difference in the utterances
of the President shortly after
the sinking and his announce
ment twenty-four hours after
ward, seeks to hold Germany ac-
countable for the death of Amer
leans aboard the i'll fated Lusita-
MIA and demands that Germany
give guarantee to this country
that Americans be given protec-
ton under similar circumstances
in future. We hope that Eng
land and her allies will whip
Germany and her allies, but at
the same time we also believe in
fair play. Germany gave fair
warning to every American who
set sail on the Lusitania, of the
danger Of entering the war zone
on British ship, and the fact that
Americans in spite of this warn
ing insisted on playing with fate,
placed the entire responsibility
for what followed on their own
shoulders and not on the Shout
ders of Germany or Uncle Sam.
Our government in seeking to
satisfy a popular clamor is MAX
ing mistake to expect or request
Germany to cease her warfare
on British ships or ships Of her
allies. It is a simple, but no
doubt unintentional attempt to
tie the hands of Germany and
we will be exceedingly surprised
if Germany complies with the
request. England is carrying on
blockade against Germany,
preventing the shipment of food
stuffs into that country, but Eng
land in order to get supplies will
if Germany complies with Uncle
Sans request, simply stick a
few Americans aboard each OF
her supply ships and tell Ger
many "You can't sink it because
we have Americans aboard. :
Submarine warfare may be bru-
tai. savage, cold-b looded, any
thing you want to call it, but
war is nothing but cold-blooded
savaeery and murder. Ger
many's only hope of interceptlng
the shipment of supplies to Eng
land is by and through her sub
marine boats and she should
not be asked or expected to dis
continue this type Of warfare
until England agrees to lift the
blockade against Germany. =

CONSUL SIMPICH MAKES DASH BACK
 ID BORDER POST

Speeding across the desert in fly ing automobile, Frederick Simpich.
 United States consul at Nogales. So nora. spent yesterday in a wild en- deaNor to comply with the urgent gov ernment dispatch ordering him to give up his vacation and return to his post as speedily as possible.
 Mir. Simpich. with a wife and little son and H. NJ .ClaGget, arrived in Phoe- nix on Thursday night from a trip through the northern part of the state. intending to remain here for several days enjoying the company of his old time friend Roy WaYland. But early yesterday morning he received wire at the hotel Jefferson which spoiled all ms well laid plans. Trouble of the most serious sort was brewing at No gales Gen. Gales with more than 1000 Carranzistas was marching on the city where the Naytorena forces under General Acosta. about 1900 Yaquis and -ooo MeNicans were taking positions Tn the hills to defend the city and the united states government wanted it's consul at his post. So the looked for Ward-to stay in Phoenix was aband- "ned, the auto was hustled around from the garage, friend and family were Shooed into its capacious tonneau and the race to obey orders began. It was the plan of Mir. Simpich to leave his family in Tucson while he sped on through the night to NogaIes hoping To arrive before the battle began
 Being government official he was naturally reticent of speech, but it was very evident that the federal au- thorities considered matters critical and highly important that the chief united States representative be st his post as speedily as possible.
 General Gales and his forces had arrived at santa Barbara. some twenty miles from Nogales. and ex- pected to invest that city at night fall. The natural surroundings of Nogales give 1t strong defensive position and with the strong force well entrenched it could probably hoid out for considerable time. However NoEales and Guaymas are the only cities held by Maytorena and l with the Carranza forces in between them. it is considered probable that the Villa governor will offer only a ! desultory resistance and take refuge | in Nogales.

Further Description of the Enqaqe- ment m Front of Doyles Cigar
 Stand

In its write-up yesterday of the antics of the bIonco-auto ridden by Mr- Vance of Mesa The Republican n. 1t seems, wounded the sensIbilities of A-r- Doyle in making it appear that in the excitement MT Doyle so far lost his presence of mind as to lose a can of tobacco he was in the act of selling to Judge Westervelt. when for strategic reasons he abandoned the intrenched position he occupied behind his plateglass cigar counter MT Doyle explains that his know ledge of military tactics and acquain- tance with the habits of bronco autos stood him in good stead and at the critical moment he not only did not lose his presence of mind but on the contrary saved both his cigar case from destruction and the bronco auto from the serious damage it would surely have suffered had i, performed any of its buck jumps amid the plate-glasa wreckage of his showcase.
 Mir. Doyle explains that he quickly conceived the idea of flanking the oncOming enemy He could then create counter diversion by waving the red tobacco can. which he so

But MT Doyle has studied closely the footwOrk of the Spanish bullfighters, as realistically portrayed on the movie screen right here in Phoenix from time to time. and now putting his theoretical knowledge into actual practice. he side-stepped the beast. It is true he lost his red tobacco can but, as MT. Doyle points out. the Spanish matador often leaves his red cloak impaled upon the horns of the charging bull, and red cloak is a good deal easier to hold onto than a smooth surfaced. red tobacco can. The Republican gladly publishes | this true version of the affair as MT. DoyIe's noble stand in 1914 | against the charge of the cohorts | of smoky Joe Wood displayed a | courage which lends credence to his | explanation of the tactics he em | pIoyed against the charge of MT. | Vance's bronco auto.
