Law Governing Catching OF Fish in

! From \. 4. Richardson, State Game

ca from The Spartanburg Herald with
the suggestion that fishermen clip il
out for future reference Whenever an
argument arises:

heard by Senator Howard B. Carlisle
and Jesse w. Boyd. members Of inc
last assembly, il seems that n scrious
misunderstanding has dcvcopcd
among the local disciples of Isaac
walton as to The South Carolina law
on fishing and scinng. 1t has been
charged that the last legislature pass
ca 4 law seriously Interfering with
the sport from Thursday until Mon
day, when really, according to \. a.
Richardson. state game warden no
such law exists
There is 4 closed season for catch
iiis Sa''c hsh' but there arc no game
ilsh IN Spartanburg county, with tho
exception of the sun perch, and these
are very scarce.

Where the People
 May Have Hearing
A PREPAREDNESS PARADE

May 3O 1916 To the Editor of The Arizona Repub-
 hcan,
 Dear Sir:
 On this Memorial Day when ones thoughts turn to our heroic dead and that memorable conflict which resulted in d nation united. the matter of pro tecting that nation both from within and without it's borders must impress itself on our minds.
 For the purpose of crystalizing this l thought into action preparedness pa rades have been held in many cities of the east and others are being planned Permit me to suggest therefore through the columns of your paper, that Phoe nix hold a preparedness parade similar York and Boston.
 We in Arizona are especially inter ested in adequate preparedness on ac- count of our nearness to our troubled and troublesome neighbor on the south and our proximity to the Pacific coast. Arizona should show to her sisters in the east and to her representatives in congress that she is deeply interested and in favor of a proper solution of this great, vital and immediate American problem
 No matter how our souls may loathe the specter of grim visaged war we are compelled, owing to the titanic struggles on the eastern hemisphere now going on, to reckon with it's devas- tating presence. We in America must not risk our hard won liberties and cherished institutions to the care and protection of pious, well-meaning, but impra ctical visionaries. The day haS not come for America to lay down it: arms or dismantle it's Qualifications Rather is it the supreme moment tC strengthen our defenses and fortify oul monarchies have been tried and founi wanting it remains for the New Worlt democracy to justify and maintain it , position as the sole champion of hu man rights and liberties.
 1 know that there need never be an, fear of American patriotism in tn presence of some great internationa crisis American manhood can alWay be trusted to stand unflinchingly on tn 5 firing line and come forth from tn . heated battle with honor unscathed an l i unSullied. But back of the Staunc Q heart and valorous soul of the Ameri f can citizen soldier there must be tn
 best physical defense and offense tha = the government can give. Our love fo

ernor which has so far been withheld The mission of Mother Jones' into the is said have been to assert that claim smoke out" the governor
 But the governor is sitting tight and if possible he will preserve that attitude throughout the fight though it is rather dangerous one If persisted in while may alienate either of the factions and create any antagonsm the primaries, it will likely dull the enthusiasm with which the Western Federa- tion had hitherto supported the governor.
 It is not probable, however that in any event any part of the Western Federation will be for MT Olney, Governor Hunts opponent in the primar- es. A "sulking in the tents" the Western Fedora tion would be the that Mir. Oney could hope for and the most that the governor would have to fear
 But all the members the federation democrats, though since statehood, they have been steadily voting for the governor Some of them probably republicans and many of them certainly socialists Many of the latter in the of choice by the governor between Mover and Powell his refusal choose, would probably support a socialist candidate at the primaries.

The Battle of the North Sea

The engagement between the German and the British fleets in the North Sea Thursday challenge by Germany of British supremacy, for the centuries, of the Though it undoubtedly the greatest naval engagement in history, consider ing the tonnage and armament of the vessels engaged and though it the severest naval disaster that decisive Its great importance lies in the fact that the Germans in this instance surpassed the British in their element. But small number of the great navy of either country engaged that there will probably be other naval engagements of greater dimensions and the results of them will be in doubt until after the fleets have met.
 Months ago the London Observer warned the British admiralty against German naval preparedness It pretended know nothing of the operations of the Germans behind the veil of Helgoland but it felt assured that they idle What vessels they might have constructed since the beginning of the war; with what and dreadful armament they might emerge to the British ships the Observer said should engage the attention of the admiralty.
 The proficiency of German gunners was demon- strated in the battle off the Chilean and the testimonial to the deadness of their gunnery and the character of their armament whatever it may be.
 Comparatively little is known yet of the details of the battle of Thursday, but it will be almost tainly dreadful story when it is described by an eyewitness with power grasp and paint stupendous events; and in comparison with then other battles of the will insignificant last one before this mark the advance in naval progress was the battle of the Sea of Japan

Carranza's Position

It looks very much like trouble with Mexico. The note of Carranza is not only ultimatum but as of fensive ultmatum could have been framed. The first chief went of his insult the president whose chief ofense that of chronic hesitation and weakness has been great moderation when he pretending be firm-that is, firm MT. Wilson be.
 We may take into the temperament Of Carranza who is very small and very cowardly. We recall that his this country the time of the occupation of Vera Cruz also offensive. It written time when he had control whatever the Mexican situation. He was then the first chief but Huerta's power unbroken. Villa beginning make some nroads upon it but the first chief hiding in Sonora, afraid of Huerta and hardly less afraid of Villa Yet he directed insulting demanding withdrawal the Americans from Vera Cruz which was outside of his jurisdiction by many hundreds of miles.
 Events since then have rather embittered him against the president The administration took sides with Villa when the split came between the first chief and the second chief. The president and his emissar ies remained on the side of Villa long after it evident that the power of that bandit hopelessy broken. Then the Washington government reluct- antly recognized the de lacto government of Car
 
 In these circumstances understand how narrow Carrstnza would tncture a state document with his feelings of bitterness The motive of the the that of futile note demanding the evacuation of Vera Cruz He then playing to the Mexican gallery and he is un- doubtedy doing
 He is in position in which he will have to act if he turns his motive He is in tro if not of the situation along the border least of the territory along the border According the dispatches of yesterday morning there from S7000 to 47,OOO Carranza troops in the Chi huahua and SoDora. He offer no excuse to the Mexican people for trying to put the American troops out if they promptly withdrawn.
 They cannot very we'll be withdrawn on the showing made by Generals Scott, Funston and I'ershing of conditions along the border and the character of the note of Carranza makes difficult for President Wilson to order their with drawal in any circumstances. The next move is Car ranZas for it is evident government does not intend tO withdraw the American troops until the reasons for their in Mexico to exist. Our Investigations there tell us that those reasons still in force.
