July 27, 1915 satisfied for the present and take up the matter of reparation for the deaths of Americans from the sinking of the Lusitania later, perhaps after the war is over. A repetition of the Lusitania out rage, will be regarded as "un friendly. ' ' That means that the UnitedStates will discontinue dip lomatic' relations with Germany and take whatever further steps as the President and the Con gress think should be taken. OUR RIGHTS MUST BE RESPECTED. Trip in at. note to Germany will be found in this paper. It is in : the same friendly and firm lan- j guage which characterized the two previous notes. The rights of the United States as a neutral must be respected. The guilt of Germany in causing the deaths of Americans by the sinking of the Lusitania must be acknow ledged and atoned for, so far as such a crime can be atoned for by reparation. Another such crime will be regarded as un friendly. The note very properly de clines to discuss the provocations from England that Germany in former notes has set up in justi fication for her crime against the United States. Whatever right either of the warring nations has to retaliate against-its ene my for I reachs of internanational law, does not give it an excuse tn nhrido-p. the rights ot a neu tral. The issuejunder discussion is one only between the United States and Germany. If . Ger many gives a prompt and satisfactory . answer to this last note, or indicates that no answer is deemed necessary, President Wilson and Secretary Lansing will be free to take up withlGreat Britianjthe greivances .thiscountry has against the Brit ish for the illegal practice in her so-called blockade, against Germany. This could not be done while the other controver sy was pending, for neutrality, as well as sincerity required that questions with one nation be not discussed with another. The continued peace and friend ly relations between the United State and Germany now rest en tirely with the Imperial govern ment. It is not necessary that Germany write any more notes. Compliance with the rights of the Uhited States will be judged by the future course of her sub marines. If the practice of the last month, except in the Orduna case, are continued, we will be ONE MORE BULLY DAY AT LAST. Theodore Roosevelt had one more happy day last week. He got his picture once more on the front pages of many papers by making a fire and brimstone speech in the San Francisco ex position grounds. He is fighting mad because the United States is not fighting Germany instead of sending notes. He studiously shunned mentioning the name of Woodrow Wilson, for he has read the newspapers enough and heard the people talking enough to know that a speaker who wish es all the cheering for himself must not say "Wilson.'.' There is such magic in the name that it sets an audience anywhere . afire with enthusiasm. He called Bryan a "mollycoddle." because he knows that Bryan's "Peace at any Price" venture has fallen as flat as his own histerical call for a "Fight first and Parley After wards." The unamimous and unreserv ed endorsement the press of every sectionof the country three days later gave to the third note of President Wilson, as it had given to the first two, is more bitter than wormwood to his taste. All that "bully" feeling he enjoyed for one short day in San Francisco has gone glimmer ing. . band list. Then the proceeds of the sale of cotton cargoes seized en route to neutral countries whenever it is believed to be in tended for an enemy country, would be distributed as prize money to the seizing ships in stead of to the shippers or own ers of the cotton. This would about put an end to the exporta tion of cotton except to the en tente countries; England, France, Russia and Italy. To Senators Simmons andOver man, Representative Webb and other Southern Congressmen, President Wilson has given as surance that the government is deeply interested in extending the marketfor cottonabroad and is now and has been treating for a freer and more expedi tious passage of cotton to custo mers in the neutral countries. That these representations from Washington are having a desired effect, is evidenced every day in the associatedPress dispatches from London. The detained ships are being inspected now without undue delay and are be ing released to continue their course or We Have "The Penslar Products." Lightening Hit Auto. Wilmington dispatch: C. Ed, Taylor, Jr, a prominent local . banker, had an unusual experi- !PnfP Tnpsrlnv rno-Vit he coming into the city in his large touring car in the face of a driv ing rain and thunderstorm. The machine was either struck by lightening or a tree nearby, for Mr. Taylor was Tendered uncon scious by the shock. For some I reason the machine stopped, the current probably short circuiting I the" electric mechanism. Mr. ' Taylor thinks he lay in the ma chine unconscious for about half an hour when one of his friends came along in a machine and brought him back to the city. He was little the worse for his harrowing experience yesterday and 'was able to attend to his business. The South' is putting its trust in Wilson, as is every other section of the country. Cotton will not sell at peace time prices, but it will bring a great deal better price if we hold up the hand of Woodrow Wilson and let him manage this difficult and delicate question than by losing our heads and joining in the sense less demand for embargoes against either England or Germany. THEIR COTTON FARMERS WILL KEFP SENSES. Southern cotton farmers are not going to be inveigled into a coalition with the overheated partisans of Germany who are memorializing the President to put an embargo on the shipment of arms and ammunition to Eng land. To put a stop to the selling and shipping of war munitions to the allies because of the im pediments - the British govern ment has put in the way of the delivery of cotton to neutral countries would be disastrous to the South. England would at once put cotton on the contra- PR0GRESS OF THE WAR. Warsaw has not yet fallen. In stead of evacuating the city as they did Lemberg, the Russians are making a stand and have held the superb Germanic armies at all critical and important points. Mackensen's armies fac ing the Lubin railroad east of WarsawT has not gained a yard. North of the city the German line composing one side of the vice, intended to squeeze the Russian defenders, has taken the Russian works along the Narewr river, but the more strongly for tified Bug river lies between ai . , n , . them and Warsaw. If the Rus- uie cargoes paia ior uy . n sian army is well supplied with ammunition, Warsaw will not 'be given up until the attacking ar- the British government. We must bear in mind, in the and England, that they are in ml.es have pald dearly for the a life and death grapple. The governments of both countries wish to retain the friendship of the United States and concede every demand and request we make in defense of the rights we have under inter national law and custom inform er wars, so far as they can, with out injuring their own chances of success and helping their enemy. Both governments also have public sentiment at home to satisfy. " That Germany will not officially and formally promise what Pres ident Wilson demands in his last note, can be taken for granted. But that what he asks will be done is about as sure. That England will not officially and formally, renounce the policy it has declared about the ship ment of cotton, is equally cer tain. But that it will arrange for American cotton to find its way into the hands of the purchasers in neutral countries prize. In the West the French have stormed and taken strong Ger man works and captured 800 prisoners. The Italians are storming the important Austrian fortress of Garizia, which is one of the main protections to the seaport city of Triste, which has been the Italian objective since their entrance into the war. There has been, several reports that Garizia has fallen, but these re ports haye not been confirmed. Error as to Iredell. The counties of Iredell, Cataw ba and Alexander are quarreling over a division of the "spoils" in the way of tax money that is to be assessed against the Southern Power Company on its power plant now being completed on they Catawba river. Charlotte Observer. Error as to Iredell. This coun ty has no quarrel with the South- much more easily than it has in ern Power Co. or anybody about i i i late montns, is also certain, on account of the notes that are passing between Washington and London. The diplomacy of Woodrow Wil son in winning in both instances. the assessment. The assessment made by Iredell was acceptable to the Southern Power Company and there is no dispute so far as Iredell in concerned. Statesville Landmark.
