GERMAN NOTE EXPLAINED.
The Tone Intended for Berlin, the
Substance for Washington.

We are disposed to pass over with
out much attention those features OF
the German note which are more or
less apart from it's main and sub
stantial declaration; such, for ex-
ample, as the half-hearted admission
of the validity of our evidence about
the sinking of the Sussex, and the at
tempt to offset the inhumanity of the
illegal and murderous assault on neu-
trails at sea with a denunciation OF
the admittedly legal traffic by neu-
trails in munitions. Many of the ex-
pressions of the note are calculated
to exasperate, and seem to be un-
necessary as we'll as unfortunate, in
view of the main fact of compliance.
But it is no more than fair to keep in
mind the circumstances that in or
der to be effective this deliberate
move of the imperial government for
the preservation of friendly relations
must take account of divided opinion
in Germany The note had to be
written not only as a reply to a
specific demand of the American
government, but also with view to
the satisfaction Of natural pride and
a very exacting national sentiment
at home in the empire.
The tone is manifestly intended for
Berlin, the substance for Washing
ton. The administration may well
concentrate it's attention upon the es-
sential fact, and that fact is that an
immeasurable and apparently immi-
nent calamity has by Germany's act
been averted without the oblitera-
ton of a single bright band in the
spectrum of this republics honor
New York Sun.

Rescues Her Seven Children.

Not one, but seven, of her children
were saved recently by Mrs. Daniel
Haney, who lives near Cleveland, Ga.
The children were returning from
school, which is on the other side OF
the river from their home. Near the
bank the boat overturned, pitching
them into the water. Mrs. Haney
heard the screams and ran to the
river bank. She plunged in and, one
by one, picked. the seven children out
of the water.

Not Easy to Explain.

THAT boy of mine is always ask
ing questions.
"Oh, we'll, perhaps he wants to
learn something"
"Maybe so, but his inquisitiveness
rather distressing to me at times.
"Yes?"
He insists on being told what his
mother means when she calls me a
'jelly-fish,' "a matrimonial misf1t, and
a human tank

frage and Other Topics.

delegates to the State convention,
May II, will come either directly in
structed or inferentially pledged to
oppose any measure tending to abol-
ish. the county-to-county canvass OF
the candidates for State offices, &C
cording to a study of the reports OF
the various county conventions held
throughout the State May l. The
agitation against the biennial cir
GUS has been especially noticeable in
the last two years and one delega-
ton from Greenwood, consisting OF
eight men, were Instructed by their
convention to institute and fight for
a resolution doing away with the
most important matter to come be-
campaign. This will probably De the
fore the State Democratic conven-
ton this year.
Petitions in favor of woman suf-
frage will likely be presented.
There will be 33S delegates to the
convention, two more than formerly
on account of the new county of Nc
Cormick, which will have repre-
sentation of four, while Abbeville
county, formerly having eight, will
have only six delegates. The num-
Der of delegates from all other coun-
ties remains the same, being twice
the county's representation in the
general assembly.
Beaufort county will probably
send a contested delegation, as one
faction bolted during the recent con-
vention. Beaufort will also attempt
to have the convention adopt rule
placing municipal primaries under
the supervision of the State machin-
cry. A recent election in Beaufort is
the direct cause of the movement for
protection. Minor changes in the
rules will also be considered by the
body, as suggested at the recent
meeting of the State executive COM
mittee.
Newspaper accounts also show the
following: The administration OF
Gov. Manning was commended in
whole or in part by Sumter, Bam-
berg, Beaufort and Kershaw eoun-
ties, the delegation in the last being
all Manning men. Anti-Blease forces
won the convention in Barnwel.
Supporters of Blease carried the
conventions in Anderson and New
berry. Mccormick county showed
an anti Manning sentiment. In the
Chester convention resolution COM
mending the State administration
was not voted on because Of a mo-
ton to adjourn. A woman suffrage
resolution in the Richland county
convention met the same fate.
Hearty and ringing Endorsements
of the administration of President
Woodrow Wilson and recommending
his denomination by the Democratic
party were adopted in AZ counties;
no mention of such action by the
county convention was made in the
reports from Charleston and Dillon.
A further analysis of the attitude
toward the county-to-county canvass
shows: That there will be SO dele
gates favoring it's continuance, ~
opposed, 80 uninstructed, IL seeking
an improvement, IA wishing to sub
nit the question in a primary to the
voters of the State. From 19 coun-
ties, in which the question was not
brought up for discussion, there Will
be $50 delegates; with these, how
ever, the probability is that they will
vote to retain the canvass, as they
have received no instructions from
''the people,

Identity of Raiders.
The point most speculated upon.
here tonight was the identity of the
raiders. Carranza military officials
only a day or so ago declared that
this section had practically been
cleared of bandits.
Fifteen days ago the members or
the Carranza garrison at Boquillas,
the Mexican town just across the Rio
Grande from Boquillas, Texas, sud-
denly disappeared. They have not
been heard from since and there has
been a. suspicion that they might,
have deserted to the Villa forces.
Military men thought tonight they
probably participated in the raid.
