Power
DON'T overlook this matter of
power. It is important. You
want an automobile that will
carry you through mud, sand and
snow, and do it easily. You want a
car that will climb hills, that will get -
away quickly without laboring and
straining its every part.
Not all cars can do these things,
but you know that the Maxwell can
because you have the proof.
When the Maxwell stock touring
car set the World's Motor Non-Stop
Mileage Record a few weeks ago, it
encountered all sorts of unfavorable
conditions -rain, mud and hills, over
country and city roads ? yet it cov
ered 500 miles per day, day after
day, for more than six weeks.
Power, plenty of power, unfailing
power, is absolutely essefitial to such
a wonderful performance as this.
Let us give you a booklet telliiv,*
all the details of this record breaking
Maxwell car. And let us tell you
r.bout our partial payment plan, by,
means of which you can make a cash
djposit and pay the balance while
you use the car. Give us the oppor
tunity and we'll prove our case.

cent events make the conclusbn inev
itable t l*i* t it Ls only one instance, even
though it bv one of tin* most extreme
and distressing instances, of the spirit
and method of warfare which the im
])erial (ierman government has mistak
enly adopted, ami which from U*e tirst
e*po?ed that government to the re
proach of thrusting all neutral rlghtS"
aside in pnrsnlt of its immediate ob
JOCtS.
Limit of Patience
"The government of the United States
has Iivjhi very jmtlent. At every stage
of this distressing experience of trage
dy after tragedy, in whioh its own
citizens were involved, it has sought
to he restrained from any extreme
course of action or of protest hy a
thoughtful consideration of the extraor
dinary circumstance of this unprece-'j
dented war, and actuated in ail that
ft. said or dhi hy the sentiments of]
genuine friendship which the jwople of
the I 1 1 i t < m I States h?ve always enter- 1
talne<l ami continue to entertain to
ward (lie (ierman nation. It. has. of
course. accepted the successive explana
tions and assurances of the Imperial
< ierman government as given in entire
sincerity and good faith, and hits hoped,
even against lmj>e, that it would prove
to he |K>sslhle for the (ierman govern-)
ment so to order ami control the acts
of its naval commanders as to square!
its pol icy w ith the principles of human
ity as eihhodi(>d in jp,. pjw of nations.
It has l>een willing to wait until the
signlllcvince of t Jit* facts became abso
lutely unmistakable and susceptible of
but one interpretation.
"That point, has now unhappily been
reached. 'I he facts are susceptible of
hut one Interpretation. The lui|H*rial
UM-man government has been unable to
put any limits or restraints ii|x>n its
warfare against either freight or pas
senger ships. It has. therefore, become
painfully evident that the position
which (his government took at the very
outset is inevitable, namely that the
use of submarines for the destruction
ot an enemy's commerce is of necessi
ty. because the very elmracter of the
vessels employed and the very methods
?f attack whU-h their employment, of
course, involves, incompatible with the
principles of humanity, tin* long estab
lished and incontrovertible rights of
neutrals and the sacred immunities of
non-combatants. N*
Demand on Germany.
? L+ luive deemed It my duty, there-!
fore, to say to the lm|>crinl (ierman
government that if it is still its pur-'
|h>sc to prosecute reh*ntless and indis
criminate warfare against vessels of
commerce by the use of submarines,
notwithstanding the now demonstrated
impossibility of conducting that war
fare in accordance with what the gov
ernment of the United States must con
sider tin* sacred and indisputable rules
of international law and the universal
ly recognized dictates -of humanity, the
government of the United States' is at
last forced to the conclusion that there
Is but one course It can pursue: and
that unless the Imperial (ierman gov
ernment should now immediately de
clare and effect an abandonment of its
present methods of warfare against pas
senger and frefltfht-carrylng vessels, this
government can have no choice bur to
Never diplomatic relations with the gov
ernment of the (Jerman empire nlto
get her., j
"This decision I have arrived at with I
the keemvd regret: the possibility of
action contemplated. I am sure all!
thoughful Americans will look forward
to with unaffected reluctance. Hut we
con not forget that we are in some
sort and hy the force of circumstances,
the responsible spokesman of the rights
of humanity, and that we can not re
main silent while those rights seem in
process of being swept utterly away in
the maelstrom of this terrible war. We
owe it to a due regard for our own
rlght.s as a nation, to our sense of duty
as a representative of the rights of neu
trals the world over, and to a just con
ception of the rights of mankind to
take this stand now with the utmost
solemnity and tirmness.
Issue With Germany
"I have taken It, and taken It in the
confidence that It will meet with your
approval and support. All HObei-nilnd
<*d men must unite In hoping that the
Imperial (ierman government, which
lias In other circumstance* stood as the
champion of all the interest of humani
ty. may recognise the Justice of our de
mands and meet them in tin* spirit In
wihlch they are made."

SOI Til CAROLINA POLITICS.
If It Interferes With Business in That
State Business is Cut Out.
"In South Carolina everybody watch
es th political game and enjoys seeing
it played." said A. B. Jordan, a news
paper man of Dillon, S. ('.. at the
Haleigh. "We have strong convictions,
and. with the average South Caro
linian. if politics interferes with busi
ness he cuts <?ut the business. We do
not elect a Senator this year, but any
way the campaign this summer prom
ises to be interesting. Former (Jover
nor Blease says he is in the race to
win. ami Oovernor Mannihg's friends
are determined io give him a swond
term. I do nut think Solicitor Ooo|>er's
coin i nil into the race will hurt Oov
enior Manning. They represent the
game political faction and their views
on all public matters are almost, identi
cal, but. there is ;in unwritten law in
South Carolina that gives a man the
right to succeed himself, and tills sen
timent, combined with the deeply root'
ed sense of fair play so characterister
istie of i ?u r j>eopIe. is very much in
Governor Manning's favor.
"South Carolina is the only South
ern state that still clings to the coun
ty-to-county campaign, and a strong ef
fort will I H-" made by I he progressive
memliers of the party U> abolish the
custom lit the state convention to be
held in May. Among the intelligent
and progressive people the sentiment
for its abolition is strong. These meet
ings do not serve any good, as the
candidates take up much of their time
attacking one another's records, and is
sues in which the jieople are interested
are seldom discussed.
"The country us a whole is in much
better condition tlitin it was last year.
Good crops were realized, and the
fair price received for cotton helped
pay off past indebtedness and begm
the present > ea r with a clean sheet.
In this connection I may say that our
people are Intensely interested in rural
credits legislation, ns they realize that
if the rural credits bill is passed in its
present form it will be of wonderful
benefit, not only to South Carolina but
to the entire South." ? Washington

of Connie Maxwell Orphanage to know
