workers, electricians, farmers; they
even take the youngest men, college
and university STUDENTS, or young men
from other high schools.
This in spi of the fact that two
high authorize of the German en-
pire had formally guaranteed the lib
erty OF our compatriots.
THE lay after the capitulatlon Of
Antwerp. the frightened popu.aco ask ed
itself what would become Of the Bel
CLANS military ago or those which
would arrive at that age before the end
of the siege. Baron Won Huene. mill
tary governor of Antwerp, authorized
me to reassure in his name the fright
ened parents. However, as rumors
were running that in Antwerp. Liege,
Namur and Charleroi. voung men had
been Sc zed and forcibly carried off to
Germany. I asked Governor Won
Huene to confirm to me in writing the
verbal guarantees which he had given
me. He replied that the rumors per-
tanning to deportations were will out
foundation, and he gave me without
hesitancy the written declaration
which ,yas read on Sunday, Oct. IS,
1914. in all the parochio, churches of
the AFRO basement os Antwerp:
Young men need not fear of being car
ried off to Germany, either for enroll
ment In the army, or for forcible en-
ployment.'
CONFIRMED THE PROMISE.
Immediately after the arrival Of
Baron Won der Goltz In the capacity
of governor general at Brussels, went
to ask him to ratify the guarantees
given by Governor Won Huene to the
rovince of Antwerp, extending them
to the while country, without any time
limit. The governor general retained
my pc ion in order to Consider it at
his leisure. The following day he was
good enough to come in person to Ma
line to express his approval, and in
the presence Of two !; tdes- deco
and my private secretary, to confirm
the promise that the liberty of the
Belgian citizens would be respected
In my letter Of Oct 16 last to Bar
on Won Kissing, after reminding him Of
the undertaking given by his predeces-
sor. concluded: Your excellency will
understand how painful the burden OF
responsibility l should have incurred
towards families would be Il the con-
fdence they placed in you through me
and at my earnest entreaty should be
SO lar cntably disappointed.
REPLY OF GOVERNOR.
The governor general replied: The
employment of the Belgian unemployed
in Germany, which has only been in
itiated after two years of war, diff
fcrs essentially from the captivity OF
men fit for military service. Moreover,
the measure Is not related tn the con-
duct of the war properly speak ing, but
it is determined by social and economic
causes
las II the word of an onest man
was terminable at the end Of a year
or two! AS If the declaration confirm
ed in 1914 did not explicitly exclude
both military operations and forced la
Dor! AS IL, in fine, every Belgian
workman who axes the place of a
German workman, did not enable the
latter to fill gap in thu German

The city of Lewiston is denied re-
hearing ~ the water front cases by
an order and decision OF tie supreme
court in the cas- IS entitled the North
ern Pacific VS.. d. C. Hirzel and the
Northern Pacific rs. Neukum. Both
cases were originally instituted to eject
the defendants named from lands along
the river front claimed by the rail-
road. The city OF Lewiston entered
the litigation dis intervenor, t being
alleged that the mayor was the trustee
of the land lying betveen tn high wa
ter mark and the center of the streams,
which contention the district court for
Nez Perez county upheld. The rail-
road company appealed and the ruling
Of the district court was reversed 1t

railroad had access no rights Of a priv

CITY HAS NO RIGHT.
A petition for rehearing was filed
by the city. This. on review, the SUI
preme court denies, holding as it had
before. THE city" says the court
has no right or power to make leases
OF any part of the land held by the
state below high water for navigation

IT is further held that while the

MADE GERMAN SOLDIERS.

The naked truth is that every
deported work man is another SOL
dicr for the German army. He
VIII take the place OF a German
workman, who VIII be made into
a solder. Thus tic situation which
we denounce to the civilized world
may be reduced to these terms.
-Four hundred thousand work men
have been thrown out of work by
no fault of their own, and largely
on account of the regime of the &C.
cupation. Sons, husbands, and
fathers OF families, they bear their
unhappy lot without murmuring,
respectful of public order; nation
al solidarity provides their most
pressing wants; hy dint of unself-
ish thrift and self derial they es-
cape extreme dest tuition, and they
await with dignity and in IL mu-
tual affection which our national
sorrows have intensified, the end of
our common ordeal.
Groups of soldiers introduced them
selves forcibly into the home; OF these
people. tearing the young people out
of the arms Of their parents, the hus
band from his wife, the father from
his children, at the point of the bay.
onet they block the entrances to the
homes preventing wives and mothers
from rushing out to say last rewel
TO them; they align the captives In
groups of 40 or so and push them fore
IDLY into freight cars; the locomotive
is under pressure, and as coon as 8
train lead Is ready, an officer give.
the signal and they depart.
Thus another thousand Belglans
reduced to slavery, without previou,
trial, condemned to the penalty which
comes next in cruelty to the d.atl
penalty; deportation. They dom
know how long their exile Is going L
last, neither do they know where the,
are going. All they know is that theil
work will benefit the enemy. Severa
of them have been brought to sign
by coercion or by threats-an engage.
ment which they dare to call .volun
tary.'

GREENyILLE PAPER HAS FIRE.
Daily Piedmont's Plant Put Out Of
Commission.

! Greenville, Dec. 2-The Piedmont,
Greenville's afternoon paper, suffer-
ed losses early yesterday morning as
/ the result Of fire which damaged
, the press in the baseme"t and three
. linotype machines on the second
floor and also other equipment in the
mechanical department.
The fire was discovered about 7
o'clock by one of the members of the
comp osing room, who ran to the cen-
trail fire station and gave the alarm.
The press room was soon enveloped
and flames were licking the walls up
stairs. Rolls Of paper. printers ink
, and other inflammable materials
caused the fire to spread quickly.
The damage, which will amount to
several thousand dollars, it is under
stood, is covered by insurance for
the most part.
Signs of the fire were also notice.
able In the editorial rooms and the
business Offices, but the damage there
did not amount to anything.
The plant was rendered useless for
the publication Of paper there yes
/ terday, and 1t may be at least two
weeks before the damage to the press
and linotype machines can be repair
ed and the paper able to come out at
its own plant The paper for the
present will be published in the plant

j. G. Keys, editor Of the Baptist
; Courier, also promptly offered the
Piedmont the use of the Baptist Cou-
rier plant.
The fire started from a stove in
| which fire had been kindled only a
short time before. 1t spread rapidly
! through the basement and upward
into the composing room on the floor
above. The fire department reached
| the scene within few moments af-
| ter the flames were discovered, and
were successful in preventing great
damage to the building. and no doubt
! prevented a total destruction of the
