GERMANY'S ANNOUNCEMENT

The announcement made by Germany
that commencing February 1st the subma-
rine warfare will be resumed against ship
ments from neutrals to the allies amounts
practically to declaration of war against the
United States There seems to be no room.
for diplomacy in view of the fact that Ger
many, by this act, violates solemn pledge
made some months ago to discontinue this
warfare. There is some speculation as to
what will be the terms of the Presidents
reply, but the opinion of public men and
the press is that war is the final end ot the
controversy.
Germany's demands are, to large ex-
tent bluff for no one doubts that she has
conducted the submarine operations to the
limit of her ability.
The last demands indicate determine
ton to involve this country in war. In
England the opinion prevails that the meas
ure shows the desperate straits to which
Germany has been forced.
the Vicksburg Herald expresses clearly
the effect of the German policy as follows:
"The German proclamation is calculat-
ed to inspire expectation of more and more
frightfulness-of raising sea warfare to the
height Of atrocity of the practices on land;
such as the deportation Of enemy people for
the work of slaves. This dread may find
fulfillment. But the Herald doubts if Ger
man thoroughness has in the past left aught
undone that could contribute to victory.
As scruples have not embarrassed the Kais-
er in the past, We are sceptical of the posi-
bility of making submarine warfare any
great deal more ruthless or destructive than
it is. While the underse2 ships have been
so greatly developed ir efficiency as to Sc
verely test British sea power, it is to be
doubted il more can be dore in destroying
than has been achieved At least
The threat of submarine blockade that will
End the war in sixty days, may not be &C
'epted until actually demonstrated.

WEATHER AND WEEVIL

1t the common report is to be credited
the present winter has been one remarkably
favorable to the destruction of the boil
W evil and farmers throughout this section
ar in high glee in anticipation of a good
season this year for the production of the
staple. 1t is to be hoped that this enthusi-
asm will not go so far as to induce the
planters to curtal feed crops. While the
high price of cotton makes its production
attractive for the coming year, the planters
should not lose sight Of the correspondence
high price of feed stuff and supplies.
If they expect to reap maximum profits
on cotton they must prepare to escape the
abnormal prices that they may expect to
pay for those commodities which they must
use in the production of this crop. Increas-
ed production of articles for home use will
be necessity if they expect to get good
net results on the years operations Thew
must bear in mind the fact that the high
prices of farm products results primarily
from plentiful supply of money-a condi-
ton that is subject to sudden change

The assessors held convention at Rat.

The assessors held a convention at Bat
on Rouge during the week and a general
discussion OF assessments was INDUCED in.
up to the present time no material light
has been thrown on the subject. The meet
ing does not promise much in the way of
a solution of inequality of assessments. It
was expected that the state board of affairs
would have presented for consideration
some definite scheme from which the peo.
pie could draw conclusion as to the efficacy
Of the new system.
