THE C.. E.. NV.

The Carolina and Northwestern
railroad has issued for the pleasure
and information of its friends and
we'll wishers, quite an interesting SOU
venir in the shape Of a sixty-six page
pamphlet, giving the story Of the
struggles, achievements and develop
ment of this useful and efficient line
from it's inception in 1S4S until the
present time.
The preparation Of the pamphlet
was suggested by the determination OF
the Federal government to collect ac-
curate and comprehensive data for the
physical valuation Of the railroads
Although the C. & NV. was easily
able to furnish from it's own records
all the information required by the
Federal government, without going to
all this trouble and expense, Col. Mich
OILS, the general manager, Is not the
man to do things by halves, and when
as the result Of Investigations he found
so many things Of historical interest
and value, he decided that it would
be worth while to put them in shape
for the convenient enjoyment of the
public, and for the benefit OF future
generations.
The opening pages of the pamphlet
are devoted to a concise and compre-
hensive statement of the main facts
bearing upon the subject under con-
sideration. Mr.. Nichols tells OF the
initial steps, the various stages OF
progress and present conditions, and
then these things having been covered
in tabloid form, there is presented at
al o.
ords details of the various meetings,
and the names of various individuals
who had anything to do with inaugu-
rating the work Of building the road
and pushing it forward to completion.
The story of the c.. & NV. as 1t
appears in this pamphlet throws many
interesting sidelights on the history of
the country during more than half a
century. 1t presents a picture OF the
high political, social and industrial de-
velopnent that characterized the anti
bellum conditions. There are evil
dences of the breadth, courage, enter
prise and patriotism Of the old time
leaders of this section. Then follows
reflex of the travails and tribula-
tions of the war period, brought about
by terrific commercial and industrial
depression. And along with this there
is abundant testimony Of indomitable
courage and hope that must forever
compel respect and even admiration.
There is in the pamphlet much ba-
sic material for future writer's OF
southern literature, and 1t Is not un-
reasonable to predict that able writer's
Of the future will grasp from the facts
presented sufficient color Of the spirit
and character Of the old timers to in
spire historical essays that will be
worth while. AS q matter Of fact,
there is in the material here compiled
plenty of data that Is well calculated
to tempt the ambition of the ablest
writer's of the present.
The understanding is that the first
edition Of this pamphlet is quite linn
tied, consisting of not more than 500
copies. AS stated it is being distrib
uted gratuitously: but there Is consid-
erable demand for it, and there are
already evidences that If instead OF
giving it away, Colonel Nichols should
ask a price for it, something like 25 OF
so cents a copy, his supply would

There are contradictory statements
about the guns and ammunition al
legged to have been carried by the Lu-
sitania. Some statements have 1t that
the Lusitania carried guns, but no am
munition and others have 1t that she
neither carried guns nor ammunition.
What the facts are or what the facts
will be judicially established to have
been remains for future developments.

China has yielded to Japar's ulti-
matum, and Japan will proceed 10
take charge of the country. This, OF
course, would never have happened
except for the thoroughly demoralized
condition of affairs in Europe, and II
is hardly probable that it will be al
lowed to stand after Europe begins to
find herself at the close Of the war.
To us It seems that Japan has under
taken a pretty good sized contract.

The sinking of the Lusitania will
necessarily add to the bitterness and
fierceness Of the struggle between the
Germans and the allies. The proba-
bility is that both sides will now even
cease to talk about the so-called rules
Of civilized warfare.

There was disposition on the part
of many of the correspondents. even
of the Associated Press. to show ex-
citement on the sinking Of the Lusi-
tania. 1t was a horrible tragedy, but
we fail to see how the United States
can help itself in the matter.

LONDON, April 1.-two allied war

from the Turkish forts in the lombard
ment Of the Dardanelles on Monday, ac-
cording to dispatches from CONSTANT
nople today passed by the press bureau
A British cruiser, the Turkish war office
announced was hit by several shells
and torpedo boat was damaged.
The admiralty has issued no statement
regarding the bombardment The official
announcement from Constantinople and
unofficial reports from Sofia and the
Island of TenedOs indicate that the at
tack was resumed on larger scale than
has been developed since the sinking of
three allied battleships on March Is.
Attack Is Repulsed.
The Turkish war office announced that
several enemy ships entered the strait
and participated in the bombardment.
The attack was entirely unsuccessful,
according to the Turks. the land bat
teries forcing the retirement of the fleet
early in the evening.
A DedeaghatCh correspondent wired
to Sofia that allied warships engaged in
a heavy bombardment of the Darda-
nelles forts on Monday. The attack was
most violent at about p. IN, accord
ing to the Dedea ghatch dispatch, which
added that the roar of the big cannon
could be heard for more than forty
miles.
A dispatch from the Island Of Tenedos
mentioned only two warships as par
tiCipating in the Monday attack. The
British destroyer Renard ran past the
Turkish forts at high speed, penetrating
ten miles inside the strait, according to
the Tenedos dispatch.
The battleshp London followed, draw
ing most of the fire of the Asiatic bat
teries, those on the European shore re-
naming silent. The Triumph lombard

response, according to information at

has replied here to the criticism re-

ted states to place an embargo on ship
ments of war munitions to the allies.

prevalent in the German nation. ! was

senger who delivered it. The status of
the communication is in no way changed
by the fact Of its having been deliv-
cred as a memorandum of the embassy
"Why should there be any question
concerning its publication? | can see
no reason for criticism. Every note
that the American Government has
delivered to Germany has been pub
lshed. This memorandum was deliver
ed to the department of State on April
,. and was not published until AprIl

The Department of state must have
received information in advance that
the memorandum was to he given to
the press, because, three days before
its publication, ! informed the Asso-
ClatGd Press that had delivered the
memorandum and suggested that they
ask the department for the text of it.
The Associated Press applied to the
Department of state for the memor-
andum, and was informed that it would
have to be Obtained from the embassy.
We heard no objection to the publica-
ton.

But whether the note is to be re-

dor or expressed accurately the views
of the German government is a ques-
tion upon which much depends. If the
ambassador acted largely on his own
responsibility, the United States can
and probably will, take exception to
his conduct, without the risk of involv-
ing the two governments IN an un-
pleasantness. In this event this coun-
try could, and there is strong and per-

Not since the war in Europe started
