MEXICO "GERMAN'S ALLY F The joyouB satisfaction expressed in Germany over the growing troubles of the United (States with Mexico leads interest to certain rumors that might bo Ignored. These rumors are to tho effect that Germany herself ls lsrgely respouslble for Mexico's ex asperating conduct. An American traveler who spent somo timo recently in close contact with political circles in Germany ia quoted as saying that he found Berlin in confident anticipation of tho en trance of "an?tJier ally" into the field. That olly was to be Mexico, whose revolutionary leaders, whether for or against Carranza, were said to have "been bought with downright cash." Mexico was expected to he "another Turkey". She would pro voke war with tho United States, thereby "punishing" this nation for sympathizing with the Allina and selling thom munitions. And . ac cording to the Berlin view, there would be two results of immediate practical value to Germany. First, our output of munitions would bo diverted and kept from tho Al!les. Second, we would be so engrossed in the Mexican war as to leave Ger many freo to resumo her submarine warfare against merchant vessels without molestation from us. ' It must be admitted that recent eventB in Mexico and news dispatches from Germany tend to support thlB view. Thoro has been renewed Ger man . clamor for the resumption of U-boat warfare. Admiral' Koester ia reported lo havo deduced repeatedly in tlie last, few days that the attacks on merchantmen were to be renewed with greater violence than ever. Many Gorman newspapers while urging thia course, have pointed to our embroil ment with Mexico as an immense benefit to Germany. But lt Germany has actually bribed Mexican leaders tb for ec war .upon us-J: which as yet there is no proof 1-or even if Germany ; bs merely re joicing, with c\ean hands, dyer a pre dicament tlmt seems to; bado. well for li or. Rho Iii pr olia bl y minnon. War ?wfth Mexico will not have the result she anticipates. j There would no doubt be a moderato flacking, for a time, bf our munition shipments to Europe; but our. pro duction would be so . enormously ac celerated that the effect qn the Euro pean struggle Vv'ould bo ulmoiib no?li jglble. & "AndI as.'fpr; the ^submarine Is sue, the Gorman government -wtil be everlastingly deceived If lt Imagines that any difficulties with Mexico will divert us from compelling full ob servance of bur rights In European waters. ' , It is the army what is needed In Mexico. .Our fleet, which is the on ly arm we should uso anyhow IL wo ware drawn into the European con filet, would be available to defend American property and lifo agaluat any further U-boat frightfulness. And war In this hemisphere,- far - from making its submit; to European Impo sitions, will quicken our fighting spirit, and stiffen our resistance to wrong in. every quarter of tho world. THE PRICE OF PAPER k I- V ...-. The cnr.t of printing;, paper has risen so high ss tb dr-Iyo tunny news papers out of business and Impose ? grievous' burden on ail the rest. It used to be an a^lom. tn the newspaper world that the readers' pennies would just about pay ipr the white paper naed. Today; the price at which most nowspapeW uro nola doesn't come anywhere near paying for the paper in thom. The cost pf paper bas nearly, doubted \Many papers wv4ch made a; fair profit a year or two ago'are now published at a losa, for this reason alone. . Publish-ars have discredited a general .Increase lb the retail - price, but'tow papera have cared to adopt thia method cf - recoup ing . their losses. Whether thc rlp.a lr. tho price pt printing paper Ir. legitimate is op??i to serious-question.1 At tins annual meeting of iba.

ARMY. SNOBBISHNESS Tho army caste system, which main- j taine and unbridgeable' social gulf, botween officers and men, bas dis appeared from the.British army, un der the stress of heavy losses and the noccflsity for officering a great volun teer army. It disappeared from the French wrmy at the very beginning of tho war. lt has gone from the Russian army and other European ar mies. Only In Germany and the United States are the rigid dlstinc-? tions bf military caste still observed. j One of the valuable hy-prouucts of ( service in Mexico is likely to be the upsetting of this absurd Bystem which has devoloped in time of peace. It is wholly contrary to the spirit of American life. Our amy, aside from the necessities or discipline, ought to be aB democratic es our civilian life. And it probably will bo, If tho Mexican campaign entails tho raising of additional forces and protracted service in the field of large numbers of volunteers. The presence of the National Guard, and its absorption into the regular army, will be a powerful factor in this democratization. - Civilian troops will not swallow tho arrogance which, according to army tradition, goes properly with gold-braided uniforms. The guardsmen and the new volun teers will laugh at snobbishness. And the endurance of common hardships and' perils will have a wholesomo ten dency in the samo direction. Hereafter it will probably be pos sible for an American officer, to be friendly and sociable to his enlisted men, when off duty, without incur ring the. scorn of his brother-officers for making a "vuigar exhibition of( democracy," ' I LENE o'DOPE "I never BWV the llt.e of wheat inj my life," ?*'d a local business man' yesterday who observed scores of ve-! hides drive up to the Burrlss Milling j Company's place of hun in ess and leave; H ii cl: ii of wheat .,t? be ground into flour\- jr In soppoa?d?Hh?t ntoat of the wheat, waa brought by farmers who came, to town to attend the cam paign meeting, these deciding to kill two birds with one stone by bringing a sack ot wheat to the mill tn tho1 morning and having lt ground whilo] they were at the campaign, ' going'.' bael; by there in the afternoon ,,un<l getting the flour.

Yester day a reporter of The Intelligencer secured from the local postoffico all Information necessary trr the use of persons desiring to send mall to the young men encamped at Styx. All that ls necessary ls to address tho mail matter to "Styx, South Carolina." Of course, it would greatly facilitate matters if tho company and the regi ment in which the woung men are en listed were added to the address. For Instance, if one desired to address a member of the Palmetto Rifles, the letter would bo addressed as follows: "?nan Doo, Co.. Ts. 1st inf. ri. C-. S. C., Styx, South Carolina." Matter j to bo Bent bv express should be ad-1 dressed the same way. There was a small army of newB-1 paper correspondents in attendance j on the campaign meeting yesterday. J. C.
