Boston Papers

Boston Globe: Since the Berlin gov
eminent has acted in defiance not only of
our most earnest protests but also in de-
fiance OF its own promises, since, in other
words. diplomacy has been exhausted, the
government of the United States has
nothing left to do except to say that the
end has como. We have no choice.

NEWSPAPER COMMENT ON
ACTION OF THE PRESIDENT

his personal attendance was not unusual
although fraught with more serious i'm
port than would attend an ordinary mos
sage. 1t may be that he added some
thing to the general knowledge of Con-
gress. although that 10 doubtful. 1t
amounted to giving the legislators the
facts before sending the final note. and
1t invested the affair with more solemnity
than would otherwise have been possible.

Boston Herald: If President Wilson
should involve the country in war, no op-
posing party could run in the Novem-
Der elections on any other basis than in
support Of its vigorous continuance. Our
people tradionally uphold their flag when
It Is under fire. and they would do so now.
Boston Post: 1t is almost impossible
to conceive that she Germany can desire
a war with the United States. .
Tho economic strength Of the Uniteo
States would almost surely defeat her
No military advantage. but every disad-
vantage would accrue to her from such a
war. And unless her submarines should
kill moro American citizens, Congress
would not declare war. The chances for
continued peace then are by no means
negligible.
Boston Advertiser: The message
comes practically a year late. Indeed it
could have been ready. the note to Ger
many could have been sent II months
ago. with just as much warrant and with
immeasurably greater force, pertinence
And appeal to the German sense of HUI
5nanity. and with tremendously greater
appeal to tho patriotism Of the American
people.

Of America. Germany has no appeal this

Menace to Industrial Life.

The Advertiser does notknow Wheth-
er the report is correct or not, but the
belief is current that the germ seed OF
the labor troubles in the Anderson
mills were brought into South Carolina
from the North. 1t is unfortunate that
the existing satisfactory conditions, as
to the relations between capital anG
labor, in this State are to be disturbed
by outsiders. Would that we could
keep out these fomenters of strife!
They are as great menace to our indus
trial interests as the boil weevll is to
our agricultural interests. In saying
this. we mean no reflection upon or
ganized labor. The Advertiser advo-
Gates organization and cooperation
along all lines. But let the power or
force gained through organization be
used with wisdom and justice.

For Larger Crops.

The possibilities of increasing
the yield of ordinary crops by early
and ample preparation of the soil
have never fully been realized.
Many who have let the various du-
ties that all must meet interfere
with the work of preparing the soil
properly, can scarcely understand
what it would mean in additional
yield to prepare on time.
Moisture is often the determining
factor in growing crops in certain
localities. 1t is a fact that land
hat lies till spring without turning,
can never be prepared soft will re-
tain moisture like land broken in
fall or winter to get the benefits of
winter rains and freezes. Timely
breaking deepens the soil so it will
retain moisture; it incorporates veg
etable matter to be decomposed and
converted into humus, that life
giving substance that absorbs mois-
ture, and helps change chemical
constituents into available plant
food.
1t is very important that the land
be prepared early 1t will need all
the time, all the rains, all the freezes
it will get to become mellow and
ready for the seeded. There is not
likely to be any work on the farm
more important than preparing the
land for the next crop-Farm and
Ranch.

Woodrow wilson Four More Years.

President Wilson can now settle down
to the even tenor of his way, having
the assurance that a majority of the
100, 900, OuO American people endorse
his administration. Considering the
fact that he never at any time 'played
politics. and frequently ignored long
established precedents, thereby antag-
onizing many persons and interests, his
re-ele .tion in the face of Republican
millions spent in the campaign is all
the more remarkable. In all of his
official acts he had an eye single to the
welfare of the people, never sinking to
the sordid and selfish plane of strength
ening his political fences by prostitu-
ting his power.
The American people, and particu-
larly the people of the South, have
great cause for rejoicing. Yea, more
all of the people of the earth should
give thanks for Woodrow Wilson's re-
election, for he has, in every exigency,
stood as impregnable as Gibraltar for
humanity of every nationality.

eign Legion, the first marching regi- ment of which is probably the most picturesque in the French army.
 It is an inspiring sight to see a regi- nemt of the legion on the march; ne- groes and blond Swedes go side by side with swartty Italians. Men who have dined with kings and dwe1t in marble halls sink their identity under a bor- rowed name and march with a Polish tailor or cowboy from the wild west.

Fernan- deg de Bengoecla, another from Ecua- dor, Rodolfo Seminario, the novelist, Sanchez Carrero, all fell for France on the hattlefields of Artois and Cham paRne.

 Fifteen young students from the Beaux Arts in Paris joined in a body. | Not only all classes but all races are blended together in the first marching | regiment.
 | When Italy went to war the Italians were transferred to their own army, but previously they fought heroically,
 and two grandsons of Garibaldi lost | their lives in France.
 | The nucleus of the Second regiment l was formed on the evening of July 3l, | 1914, in Parisian cafe. Some young l Italians issued an appeal, and as a re- suit about three thousand English,
 Belgians, Italians mad Slavs attended l the meeting to consider how they could best aid the country of their l adoption. Later on, when British and l American residents in Paris tried to
 form regiments of their own, the au . thorities informed them of their in-

 decided that the volunteers should be
 drafted into the Foreign Legion.

Stories of the War
lndian Treons Impressed.

The contact which the Indian troops have with western life. religion and customs during their stay with the British Expeditionary force in France may have far reaching effect on the religion and habits of the people of India.
 A correspondent of The Associated Press was informed by British officers that the Indian troops were so inn pressed with the superiority of the customs observed in France that many of them were preparing to return and settle here after the war. It will be comparatively few of the Indian sol diers. of course, who will come back and it is from those who remain in India. that the influence on their own people is expected to eminate. How great a change the persuasion of these soldiers with advanced ideas will work on the people as a whole remains to be seen
