ARGENTINE VOTE
ON BREAK With
GERMANY FORCED
BY THE MAJORITY
Will Ballot Tonight on the
Proposed Rupture Of
Diplomatic Relations
CIV Associated Press.l

Buenos Aires, Sept. 25-The con-
servatives, who control the chamber
of deputies, have agreed 10 vote to-
night on a rupture with Germany.
From all indications they will have
a majority of 80 votes, virtually
forcing the government to cease
relations with Germany.
The government desires to post
pone the formation of its policy un-
til it receives from Ambassador
Naon, at Washington, translations
Of the AIS kilograms received or sent
by the Swedish legation here.
The government is considering the
imposition of a rigid censorship Of
all messages in the republic to pre-
vent misuse of the cables such as
that practiced by Count Won Lux
burg, the dismissed German minis
ter.
Strikers have cut telegraph lines
TO Valparaiso, Chile, parSlyzing di-
rect cable service to the United
States.
The authorities have been advised
officially that strike agitators in the
city of Santa Fe have been con-.
ferring with the German consul
there, and that the serious strike
among all classes Of workmen during
the last month in that city was
fomented and supported by Ger

Buenos Aires, Sept. z5.-Mobil-

been ordered at a rendezvous 81 lilo-

also unusual military activity in the
republic. Although this is ostensibly
due to the general strike, high off,

staff has its eyes open to "other

Germany is stfIf being widely dis
cussed BY members OF the Argentine
congress and the public generally,

patches it should have taken action
against the minister and not waited
until after Secretary Lansing's
revelations to express its disap-

The cabinet and deputies do not
yet consider the question closed. and
there is widespread disapproval by
the newspapers and deputies of the
personal guarantee sent by DR.. Luis
Molinea, the Argentine minister at
Berlin. that Germany would keep its
promise.
1t is learned that the general stat,

The double air raid on England BY
German ZsPpeIins and airpIanss last
night resulted in the death Of fifteen
peBons and the injury Of more than
seventy.
Nearly all the casualties were
caused by the airpIans division, two
Of the machines of which reached
London. The bombs Of the airpIans
feet accounted for all the killed, and
all but three Of the injured, according
to the official reports today.
Three women were injured by
bombs from the ZeppeIins which
crossed the Yorkshire and Lincoln

land.

A new attack was delivered last
night in the Beaumont region south
east Of chaums wood and in this
liquid fire was employed by the
crown princes troops. Here again
they failed to gain ground and suf-
fsred heavy losses.
London. Sept. 25.-The foIlowins
official report was given out by Lord
French. commander OF the home de-
fenses:
"Airplane raid: The latest re.
ports concerning last nights air
plane raid show that the group OF
raiders which approached London
were driven off by the FIRE of anti.
aircraft guns. Only one or at the most
two machines penetrated the de-
fenses. The casualties in all the
raided districts reported by the po-
lice up to the present are: Killed, Is;
injured. 20. The material damage
was not great.
'Airship raids: Enemy airships
crossed the Yorkshire and Lincoln
shire coasts between midnight and
a. m. There is no evidence OF their
having penetrated to any distance
inland. They were driven of by
gun-fire by various defended Iocan-
ties which they attempted to ap-
proach. Bombs were dropped at one
coast town, three women being
slightly injured. Little damage was
caused"
Only Three Bombs Dropped.
London, Sept. 25-Reports from q
Kentish town say that about eight
bombs were dropped in last nights
air raid. According to a telegram
from an Essex coast town. the first
intimation Of the raid came when
anti aircraft guns opened fire and
the droning OF the airplane motors
could be heard. The bombing over
this town continued for about two
hours at intervals but so far as
could be learned only three bombs
were dFopped and apparently there
was no great property damage.
Viewed by daylight this morning
the damages resulting from the visit
Of the German raiders 10 London
last night appear to be surprising
ly light. The number Of bombs drop
ped in the London district was small
and the practical results were almost
negligible.
The chief damage visible this
was broken glass. One
heavy bomb broke glass in hotels In
which were many Americans, Cana
dians and Australians.
Only three persons were killed by
this explosion.

NATIONALS OF
GERMANY BAN
PEACE THEORY
Adopt Resolutions Con-
demning Proposal by the
.Reichstag Majority
CBy Associated Press.1

Berlin, Sept. 25.-The
Bavarian government has
made an individual reply
to the peace proposals of
Pope Benedict, according
to a special message from
Munich.
"It is taken for granted
that the German imperial
government is fully conver-
SAINT with the contents of
the reply made by King
Ludwig, +" it is said.
The procedure which has resulteai
in the sending of two replies TO the
Pope from Germany is explained on
the ground that as the German papal
delegate is accredited to Bavaria the
Pope's note was delivered to King
Ludwig whose reply is said to have
the Pope. 1t is stated that
the two notes concur in material
aspects but that it is understood the
Bavarian answer goes into details on
certain points.

Harden Wants Armistics.

Berlin, Sept. 25.-In response to a
request for his opinion OF the Ger
man reply to the Pope's peace note,
Maximilian Harden, editor of Die
Zukunft, in a statement to The Asso-
ciated Press yesterday prefaced his
remarks with the reminder that
every nation and every government
is more or less tradition-bound, none
probably with tighter cords than
Germany. This tradition, he said,
heavily impedes any effort to break
through the terrifying charged circle
with which the wars Affections en-
compass them.
"The German reply. said Herr
Harden, "is the first visible attempt
to escape from this charged circle,
whose final obliteration is a pre-
liminary condition to an enduring
peace.
Herr Harden proceeded to declare
that the note reflects the honest and
sincere will of the majority Of the
people as unequivocally expressed in
the reichstag resolution, adding:
New Spirit Seen.
$50 far as lies in our power. we
want to stop the war and prevent
the possibility of new wars by the
cultivation OF az new spirit, which
will so completely impregnate IN
ternational intercourse with ethical
feeling, that never again shall hu-
manity behold the d9y when force will
strangle right.
Denying that the German people
ever seriously intended to apply open
or covert forces to the people or gov
ernment of Belgium, he said:
"The words that were so construed
were intended only to serve the pur-
pose of war tactics, or said necessity.
Most eagerly do we desire to CO.
operate with the work OF converting
the misery and disgrace Of this war
into the turning point for new
epoch in which the sun will rise for
the soul Of mankind. That Is the
spirit and import Of the German
answer.
''The German empire will now be
told that its answer is not sincerely
meant and that it is. in addition, a
plain indication of the beginning Of
exhaustion. II in this most tragic
hour Of all human experience we are
unable to rise above the unclean
vapors Of such Vaccinations, then

under the proper conditions, should
have been comparatively easy.
Wage Garner and Wage Payer had
made the trip many times before,
Knowing all the dangerous eddies and
currents in the river, Wage Payer had
always assumed the leadership. AT the
same time he had come to place great
reliance on the Wage Farmers skill and
strength as a rover. There was every
reason why these two men should have
continued on the most friendly terms
They were absolutely dependent on
each others help to get them across
stream, but In matters requiring CO
operation human beings often show
less wisdom than some of the lower
animals.
Through one trivial cause or another
a difference had grown up between the
two men, and the ill-feeling had been
fostered by third man named Agi-
tator who had his own ak to grind and
had found it to his advantage TO pose
rs Wage Farmers friend. OF course you
can't find Agitator in the boat of In
dustry. Naturally he can't waste his
time rowing when he has so much
talking to do. Talking is pretty ardu-
Gus work. Even insurance solicitors
will admit that.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1917-06-07
This is EASY"

A parley followed, during which
Wage Garner and Wage Payer frank
ly stated their grievances against each
other and came to the inevitable con
clusion that they had allowed trifes to
estrange them. Gigantic grievances
have a diSconcerting way of dwindling
into pygmies when subjected to dispas-
Sionate scrutiny. The upshot of the
matter was that Wage Garner acknowl-
edged Wage-Payer's superior knowl-
edge of the river and permitted him to
guide the boat. The trip was made In
better time than ever before because
the spirit of cooperation lent strength
to the rowers' strokes.
When it came time for the feast on
the shore of Success, Wage-EaIner was
agreeably surprised to find that his
dish Of profits was generous enough to
appease his appetite.
If the accompanying illustrations
showed a birdseye view Of the shore
from which the rowers started you
would notice that Agitator was con-
spicuous by his absence. Modesty is
one of Agitator's chief virtues. He's
always willing to give Wage Garner
the credit for any trouble that has been
started
Personally we think it would be SAT
er for Agitator to refrain from hanging

Reasons Why You Should Patronize
this Horse.
He is an extra good individual and
represents the most popular breed in
the country today. His pedigree repre-
sents the best blood of his breed His
quality is unsurpassed and he has the
best disposition of any stallion in the
country. He transmits this disposition
to his colts. He is a tried horse and a
sure foal getter. His colts are easy to
sell and bring good prices; they have
high life, plenty of vim, but are easy to
handle. He will stay here and give you
chance to breed to him again.
We will exercise.the greatest care in
handling mares, but will not be respon-
sible for accidents.

that the course Wage Garner wished to

would lead to the destruction of the

no avail, Wase-Payer angrily seized the
oars and began to pull with all his

was right.
