petitioner Is, therefore, entitled to be
regarded as a citizen of the United
States the same as all other citizens
of the Republic of Hawaii, whether
they were born in the islands or were
not"
In conclusion, the decision says:
1T appears that up to the 29th Of
May. 1913, petitioner was claiming
American citizenship in such manner
that no presumption could be indulg.
ed against him by reason of being in
China. Certainly the time he was in
China prior to May 20, 1913, should
not be counted as a part of the five
years residence necessary to raise the
presumption against him that he in
tended to expatriate himself.

lies the deprivation of an Amer
lean citizen IL his citizenship,
even though he may fail to COM
ply with the regulations of the
state department, when it appears
that when he was in a foreign
country he was claiming to be an
American citizen and had no inten-
ton of expatriating himself"
1t is also held that the petitioner,
as "naturalized citizen" could not
have come to the United States from
foreign state" as he became a nat.
uralized American when Hawaii was
annexed to the United States.

The whole county will undergo
more or less of a shock when an
nouncement of arrests yet to be
made is published. Men in positions
of trust will likely have to clear
themselves of the charge of being
parties to the lynching.
Nobody was surprised at the in
quest jury's verdict today. With
what little evidence was before them
they could not have done otherwise.
The grand jury's investigation next
Monday will be more searching and

YORK COUNTY
MAY Be SHOCKED
GRAND JURY WILL BE CALLED TO
INVESTIGATE LYNCHING OF
NEGRO PREACHER.

York, Sept 3:-"W T Sims came
to his death at the hands of parties
unknown to the jury" Such was
the verdict of the jury of inquest
into the killing of Rev Watson Sims,
a negro, near here August %, which
was rendered at 5:45 this afternoon.
The coroner'sjury was dismissed and
announcement was made that the
grand jury would be called to meet
Monday morning to continue the in
vestigation.
A crowd of more than 500 people,
most of them from the community
in which the tragedy occurred. filled
the court house here long before the
inquest was resumed this morning.
Practically every business man in
Sharon closed his place of business
for the day and came here. More
than 200 negroes were present.
The ninth arrest in connection
with the affair was made this after
noon when = R Penninger. a black
smith of Sharon, and man who has
many friends, was lodged in Jail.
He is the father of Fred Penninger,
who was placed in jail the morning
the dead body of Sims was found.
What evidence there is against the
senior Penninger has not been d.
vulged.
Little testimony Of value came
out at the hearing today. Solicitor
Henry was present end he put in a

service this morning.
The drafted men from North Car.

were promptly mustered into the
army.
Throughout the morning trains
bearing quotas from various coun-

were brought to Camp Jackson On a
special train, which left Columbia at

to the camp by the trains upon

Columbia's foremost men and wo-
men welcomed the incoming drafted
men at the union station. Brig Gen
| F H Barth, commander of Camp
Jackson; Major Lewis A Griffith and
others joined in the ovations that
were given each detachment of men
as they detrained. The Columbia
Chapter of the Red Cross society
erected lunch stand at the union
station and all incoming men were
sumptuously fed with sandwiches,
coffee and various delectables.
Noting the very unusual enthusi-
asm displayed by the drafted men,

Washington ere to the effect that in
the present offensive the Austrians
have lost more than l2S,000 men.
Reports from Udine. Italy, give the
Austrian losses as one-third of the
first line army.
The batteries of Field Marshal
Haig are still pouring an incessant
fire against the German trenches in
Flanders. but as yet the anticipated
new dash by his men to capture
them has not started. Doubtless
the knocking down of the defenses
has not reached the limits which the
British commander always requires
before he throws his infantrymen
into the fray.
On the remainder of the front in
the west, held by the British, there
have been the usual trench-raiding
operations, in one of which south of
Monachy-Le-Preux German dugouts
and machine guns were destroyed
and some prisoners taken.
Artillery duels, which are some
what violent in the Verdun region,
are taking place along the front
where the French are facing the
Germans. No infantry actions of
Importance have occurred.

1t is understood in Columbia that

Interest in South Carolina politics

are not 80 bitterly drawn as a few
years ago. The war may be the
means of eliminating factional lines
and cause the men of the State to
give more attention to issues than
to personalities.

GERMANS CAPTURE
PORT OF RIGA.
SHAMEFUL COWARDICE ON PART
OF RUSSIANS---ALLIES' SUCCESS
ON WESTERN FRONTIER.

Riga. Russia's big port on the
Gulf of Riga. is in the hands OF the
Germans and it's garrison and the
civilian population are in retreat
eastward.
Following up rapidly the advant-
age they gained in driving the Rus
SLAMS across the Dvina river on both
sides of Uskull last Saturday. the
Germans threw bridges across this
stream and soon were on the heels
of the former defenders. some OF
whom showed resistance, but others
of whom showed the white feather.
giving the invaders no trouble in
marching up the eastern bank OF
the Dvina toward Riga. fifteen
miles distant. Seeing the disatfec-
ton and the inability to stem the
tide of the advance. the Russian
commander ordered an evacuation
With the falling back of the Rus
slams from the city proper and the
advance of the Germans northward
along both sides of the stream, the
Russians still defending the western
bank around Dahlen. seemingly are
in danger of being caught between
the two fast-moving eodies of the
enemy and made prisoner.
Behind them the Russians in their
retreat from Riga are laying the
country in waste. burning villages
and farms. Whether the city itself
remains intact has not yet been
made known, but doubtless the guns
in the fortress and the ammunition
stores either were removed or de-
stroyed to prevent them falling into
the hands of the Germans.

controlling the Gulf of Riga. and of
a base nearer the mouth of the Gulf

trograd is situated; for the moment
it is impossible to see the Importance
of the German gain, especially with
the near approach of winter. when

region are almost impossible.
On none of the other fronts have
there been operations of great mo-
ment, except the Austro-Italian the
ater, where the Italians have made
further progress on the Bainsizza
plateau and in the Brestovizza val
ley and at various points along the
line have repulsed fresh counter
attacks launched by Austrians.

POSTPONING THE CONGRESS,

In many Jewish circles, even
those that have been most friendly
to the Jewish Congress idea, a wish
is being expressed that the con-
gress may again be postponed, and
this time perhaps indefinitely, or at
least until the Central powers real
ize the hope1essness of their adven-
ture and are ready to negotiate a
peace that will make the world safe
for democracy. When the first steps
toward that contamination are tax
en- by all belligerents, when the first
rumors of approaching peace are
heard, it will then be time to con-
vene the American Jewish congress.
There are many reasons why the
congress should now be postponed
All American citizens should now
give their best thought and best eff
forts to the work in which America
is now engaged, namely the work
of winning the war Nothing should
distract our attention and divert it
from the main issue even for ever
so brief a period. The congress
would naturally engross the atten-
ton of some of Our leaders, where
as the United States just now needs
their undivided attention and
energy.
Then, we must confess that
among the Jewish masses enthusi-

EDH TORIAL
WANTED-A WORKER.

When Abraham pleaded with God
to spare Sodom, he was given as
surance that if there were only five
righteous men there, the doomed
city might escape divine wrath.
Righteous men evidently are men
who not only think righteously,
but also act righteously, and work
indefatigably for some good cause.
Otherwise they have no power of
saving.
While five such men may be nee
essary to save city, one such man
is enough to save some organiza-
ton or institution in a city. 1t is
a common experience that many an
organization, whatever it's charac
ter be, and many an institution is
kept going, and prospers and pro-
crosses simply because there is one
man who completely identifies him
self with it, and devotes to it all the
time and energy he can spare from
his regular vocation. Such man
who has the interests of an institn-
ton or an organization at heart to
such an extent as to make it his hob
by, will always find assistants to
share IN the work with him. Thew

asm for the congress has lately been
on the wane, for the simple reason
that the congress has reference to
the negotiations and the restoration
of peace, and from present indica-
tons the war may last for a good
long time yet. America is certainly
preparing for such a contingency
But as soon as peace negotiations
are begun, interest in, and enthusi-
asm for, the congress will be great

Geological moment for converting it.
