A TRIP TO THE CAMP.
- ? \
I
On last Sunday I hooked up 111
and my mascot and invited my neigh-,
feor, J as. R. Davidson, to take a trip
with me to the camp in Columbia, as
? ' - 1 J V !
1 wantett 10 see my suiuier
?eant Humbert M. Aull, one more
time. We left Newberry at 6 a. m. and1
drcre up to the home of James L.'
Aull, one of the boys who lives in Co-|
lnmbia. A pretty good record for 111 |
fpfoen I am at the wheel. The run-j
Ring was good, but the roads are bad, I
I
and I would suggest to Ebbie-Wat-'
?or: that maybe be has overloaded this;
highway with big names. The" I*iedxaont
and the Appalachian all for one
road is too much of the good thing.'
From Newberry to Spring Hill, almost'
the entire way, the roa'd is about a3*
bad as it has ever b6en, and from Lit- j
tie Mountain on to the Richland line
et Wateree creek it scarcely deserves
. the cam* of a public highway. Wonder
why the people are satisfied to
feave such a road.
?o?
lifter breakfast we drove oat to the'
camp at the fair grounds and found!
th? Newberry boys of Co. K, and spent [
a couple of hours there. The colonels j
and the captains were out in town,'
Ixut we found the boy and we were j
' ]
pleased to see him looking so well and j
seemingly so well satisfied with the! ^
army. It is well that it is so. We'
I <
- saw several of the Newberry boys?,
Chappell, Keiser, eFllers, Schroder, '
Cromer?and the others, and they are
All in food health and having a good
time and taking life easy. When they
get to the camp at Greenville I am told
v. they are going to have some strenuous
training, and there' will be more i
vorlc. I also saw my friend, Captain Vf.
A. Hudgens of Anderson, and he;
I
was looking well and enjoying camp
life I was sorry that I missed Col.
McCully, tout he had gone to the city.
*vv >;. v~ I
There, was- not much evidence that it,
- ,v ' . ?
"was Sunday, and they say at the new
% - I
?o*tonment they pay extra for work
om-Stiadfcy. -In fact, a high officer re-j
jaarked to me that there wag no Suni
day in times of war, or m The war,
and I reckon he is correct. Some of;
the Woodiest battles In istory of:
wars have been fought on Sunday.
War is not a Sunday school any way.
I was reading an editorial in The
State the other day, in fact it was
v i
Tuesday's paper, on "It Is Prohibiting,"
and I was wondering if the ediiox
really believed what he wrote or
\if fce was ignorant of conditions in his1
town, and if it were true that there
fe prohibition in Columbia. And If.
lb ere is really no whiskey tnere how j'

Veil, I hope he is correct, but my in-j
formation is that there is no great i
I
diouth at present in the city.
i*
The boys will probably leave the
city today for Greenville, and will reEiein
there until they are taken to the?
tieoches in France. And that in all
M * ' i- - 1-. *Q11

" ?. i Somehow I should think that Green- j
viile would be a better place than'
Columbia fdr the traiping. I Jiop# the'
boys will all remain in good health
Bid that they may all have a safe re- j
turn home after the war is over, but
tkat is hardly possible.
? Ob the return trip we had a good
run, but made two or three stops. I (
' cculd not convince my friend Jim Dav-,
I
idson that there were many more rocks
an the road on the return trip than
there were going down in the morn-j
ing, but I am sure there were a great
many more. I do not see why they
could not find some sort of top dressing
for the roads that was not en
tirelv made of small sharp gravel, I
tout that is better than no top dressang^at
all. ^ ^ ' ?I
stopped for a few minites at Lit*
tie Mountain to see my old friend [
Mr. Noah Boland who lias been quite |
sick for some time. an3 was please-!:
to find him much improved and look- j
ing well. I hope be may soon be in ]
i
his wonted health and active in the
business life of the community.

r-KOAT FAILURE
BRINGS CRISIS
>ew Party Claims Submarines Cannot
Brings England to Her Knees and >
Wrest Victory From Defeat
Amsterdam, July 17.?The two maini
developments in the German political
crisis today strikingly bore the theory,
told exclusively in these dispatches
yesterday, that the dominating parses
in the empire want peace this year
before America hds thrown the full
pcwer of her strength and resources
ir.tc the conflict.
Their Ntwo developments were:
i lilt; new p<ti Ly uioc ii-i me *ww??
slag, indifferent as to the views and
proposed policies of the new chancelloi
Dr. Michaelis, proposes to challenge
him upon the conclusion of his
maiden speech Thursday afternoon
to subscribe to the principle of
"peace without annexations and indemnities."
J.
2. The centrist party, the predomi- ,
n2ting factor in the whole crisis and
ihc driving power behind the bloc,
took occasion today to apologize in its ,
p?rty organ, Germania, for the recent,
o
~ ~loo/lor Fir I'jTZ
<*. 1UC1AJ ft. VSi. 1U i(.uuvi | w~
berger, on the submarine campaign. :
There is one significant sentence in
tl is apology which shows beyond all
doubt that one of the main things nhat
precipitated the whole crisis was the
failure of the U-boats to "force England
to her knees" by a sepcified date.
That date is believed to hare been
July 1. At the time unrestricted
U boat warafre was inaugurated It
had the full sunnort of the centrists
and of Ezrgerger personally in psirticuiar.
Nor has there been any marked
decrease of confidence as to the effi-!
cacy of the weapon. The one grie-!
vous mistake the naval and military
leaders made, however, was to set a
definite period in which they claimed
4~ n-niil/^ turn tVip trick.
lUir MlUiliai nuuiu tuiU v?w
They asserted the iU-boat^ would
set in their deadly work before Amer-,,
ica could throw her full weight into
the fray. On that claim alone the
advocates of unrestricted sub3eas
warfare were able to swing their!'
opponents?including Bethmann-Koll-1
wee?into line.

A Failure.
"Our strongest ocensive forces, the
U-boats," says Germania in its apol?
- - VI ?
c-gy, "injuries England nnmeasumuiy
Nevertheless, no end is to be foreseen
at this moment." :
That is the grievance at the root of
the whole opposition. For fti secret
sessions of the reichstag's main com-!
mitlee during those fateful ending days
of January, the party leaders were a?-]
su'ed that the beginning of England's
end was within measurable, predeter-.

unleashed.
That promise?and that alone?llnallr
brushed aside the last vestige of
I
opposition to war with America.
Hdllwe^s Fall,
iWas the awakening to the fact that
Bethmann-Hollweg allowed himself to
be deceived by this promise?was this
tn.e underlying cause of his fall? More
tli&n one sign points to an affirmative
reply to this uestion. q
Propaganda.
Meanwhile the pan-Germans are
brewing new trouble. They are carrying
politics into the army. Pamphlets'
uiging a peace with annexation are
circulated on the fronts. The Social-1.
!
ists and radicals incensed over this,
bui determined not to let their oppon- 1
i +c atAni a ba^e on th?m. are planning ]
to go the junkers one better. The
Rheinische Zeitung goes so far as to
suggest the formation of a "workmen's
and soldiers' council after Rus-j
?*an model," saying if it comes to
I.-ass it will be the conservatives' fault !
Tremendous danger to the unity and
discipline of the army lurks behind this
new propaganda. j
It developed today that the post of(
foreign minister, relinquished by Dr.;
Zimmerman, is still open. The chief
rivals for the office are Count Bern-j
trail and Admirable von
Hintze. The former, a cousin of Count I
Eernstorff, is minister at Copenhagen;! I
the latter was ofrmerly minister at
Peking, later in Mexico and now in j
Christina. The movement in behalf
of Count Bernstorff also continues.
Demotion.
Repots that Count von Bernstorff5
is to replace Count BrockdorS at Copenhagen
are doubted here since appointment
of minister to the little
Scandinavian kingdom, after h* was
for years the empire's ambassador in
the United States, would represent a
demotion which even his i>olitica] enemies
would not consider deserved.
Admiral vori Hintze is strongly
boomed by the pan-Germans for the
foreign secretaryship. George M.
Pernhard, the eminent political contributor
to the columns of the Vossische
Zeitung, commends Bernstorff
to the attention of Chancellor Mtchae- |
iL&, picturing xae cwiuimmmxmivi
possessing all the qualifications reqiired
