WILSON SOUNDS
NOTE OF WARNING
German Government Not Yet
Shown to be and
of People
PRESIDENT SPEAKS
IN PLAIN LANGUAGE
Only Surrender Will be Effective
and Cessation Must
oe Safeguarded
Washington, Oct. 28. ? President
Wilson lias submitted the German
plea for an armistice and peace to the
allies, and at the same time has informed
Berlin that there can be no
armistice except upon terms that
would make it impossible for Germany
to renew hostilities.
Following is the text of President
Wilson's reply to the last German
note:
"The secretary of State makes pub
lie the following:
"From the Secretary of Siato to the
Charge d'A.ffairs ad interim in charge
of German interests in the Unite 1
States.
"Department of State. Qctob r 28.
1918:
"Sir:
I nave the honor to aci;no\vledg'~
the receipt of your note oi the 22n I
transmitting a communication und<
<late of the 20th from the G -rman
government and to advise you Unfile
President has instiucted me to re
ply thereto as follows :
"Having received the solemn and
explicit assurance of the German gov
eminent that it unrest rvedly accept
the terms of peace laid down in hi
address to the Congivss of the Unit
ed States on the 8th of January, 191 ,
and the principles of settlement enur.
ciatccl in his subscqut nt addrossi s.
particularly the address of the 27t
of September, and that it desires f<
discuss the details of tin ir sppliea
tion, and that this wish and purpos
emanated not from those who havhitherto
dictated German policy an
conducted the present war on Gcrmanys
behalf, but from minister^ who
speak for the majority of the Reichstag
and for an overcoming majority
of the German people; having received
also the explicit promise of the
present German government that the
humane rules of civilised v. a'far
will he observed, both on land and sea
by the German armed forces, the

that he cannot dcline to take up with
tue governments with wiiich the go:"tnnment
of the United Stater, i a
sociated the question of an armist'ee.
''He deems it his duty to say again,
however, that the only armistice he
would feel justified in submitting foi
consideration would be one which
should have the United States and the
powers associated with her in a position
to enforce any arrangements
that may be entered into and to make
a renewal of hostilities on the part )f
Germany impossible. The President
has, therefore, transmitted his correspondneco
with the present (if rman
authorities to the governments
with which the government of th<
United States is associated with a. a
belligerent, with the l-uggetien thai
if those governments are <ii posed t
effect peace upon the te:ms an
principles indicated, their military a*,
visors and the military adviser- o!
the Unite . States he asked to suhm

an armistice as will fully pro tod Ik
interests of the people involved an<
insure to the associated government
the unrestricted power to safeguar
and enforce the details of the peac<
to which the German government has
agreed, provided they deem such ai
armistice possible from the military
point of view. Should terms o
armistice be suggested, their accep
tance hy Germany will afford the bos'
concrete evidence of her unequivoca
acceptanc eof the terms and princi
pies of peace from which the whob
action proceeds.
"The President would deem him
self lacking in candor did he no
point out in the frankest possibb
icrin.j me reason wny exi raominai;
safeguards must bo demanded. Sig
niheant and important as the consti
tuiional changes seem to be whicl
are spoken of by the German foreigi
secretary in his note of the 20 of Oe
tobcr, it does not appear that th
principle of a government rcsponsibl
to ihe German people has yet bee
fully worked out or that any guarun
tees either exist 01 are in eontcmpla
tion that the attorations of principl
* ;
and of practice now partially agreed
upon will be permanent. Moreover,
it does not appear that the heart of
the present difficulty has been reach
ed. It may bo that future wars have
been brought under the control of the
German people, but the present war
has not been; and it is with the present
wai that we are dealing. It is
evident tha tlhe German people have
not means of commanding the acquiescence
of the military authorities of
the empjic in the popular will; that
the power of the King of Prussia to
control the ploicy of the empire is unimpaired:
that the determining initiative
still remains with those who
have hitherto been the masters of
Germany. Keeling that whole p ace
of the world depends now on plain
speaking and straightforward action,
the President deems it his duty to
say, without any attempt to soften
what may seem harsh words, that the
nniioTK nf thr? wnvlil tin not and can
not trust the word fo those who hav*.
hitherto been the masters of Germapolicy,
and to point out once mor
that in concluding peace and attemp
ing to undo th infinite injuries an
injustices of this war the govern
mcnl of the United Slates cannct

of the German people who

Potential Value of Live Stock Killed
on Railroad Rights of Way in South
Carolina Upwards of $100,000 a Year
But Loss is in Meat and Leather
Needed by the Army?Protect Live
8tock.
Columbia.?Losses of live stock,
killed on railroad rights of way, ill
South Carolina, are upwards of $50,000
a year. The loss cannot, however, bo
measufted in terms of money. As
Charles Barhani, of the Food Administration.
traffic avid transportation
department, has expressod it, "Money
is the cheapest thing in America today."
The loss is in meat and leather,
so sorely needed by the government
for the nation's fighting men. Since
the greatest proportion of the losses
are in "scrub" stock?stock which
could and otherwise would be fattened
and prepared for the slaughter
house?the potential loss, in meat,
leather and fats, is probably more
than $100,000 a year in South Carolina
alone. This is, furthermore, a
loss which can be avoided.
The Stale Council of l>ofense has
realized the seriousness of those
losses at a time when meat, leather
and fats are too precious to be wasted;
and following a conference held
this week with \ir. Itr.rham and several
railroad officials, is making a personal
apical to the owners of live
stock throughout the state, asking
them, in the public interest and as a
pa'rW.c duty, to keep their stock up.
Live stock owners are being asked
to sign pledges to safeguard their
stock against being killed or maimed
by passing trains. There is only one
nuv- mai is 10 Keep the stock up so
they cannot wander near the railroad.
Money <aiPiot replace hogs and cattle
killed in this way.
In communities where there is no
stock law in force, citizens are urged
by t)ie Council of Defense and the
Food Administration to protect their
own interests and the national interest
by taking immediate steps looking
toward the adoption of such laws.

I TREAT YOUR SEED
WHEAT BEFORE PLANTING
Probably the worst evil farmers
who plant wheat have to
contend with is smut. Thousands
of bushels of grain are
lost annually as a result of
smut. Smut is a disease of
wheat, and can b prevented
absolutely. The method is to
treat the seed before planting.
Use blue-stone or formaldehyde.
Make good wheat and help win
the war bv treating your seed

MAY PURCHASE LARGER
GUGAR SUPPLY AT TIME
Columbia.?All re'?Il dealers in

to sell to consumers a two weeks' supply
of sugar at one time, allowing two
pounds per pe sou per month. This

iv'ix persons in a family, the liead of
the household may purchase six
pounds of .agar a; one time. During
any one month, however, doalers nuist
not sell more than tho ration of two
pounds pei1 person or. in the case already
referred to, not more than 12
pounds, as ihis arrangement is being
made by the Food Administration
merely for the convenience of the
consumer, and does not by any means
! imply any slackening of the sugar
rcgula k?)s. The necessity of conserving
sugar is as urgoM as ever.
According to new instructions given
dealers, they are . 'quired to keep a
record in writing of all tho sugar sold
to individual customers. This "ecord
must ,show the name of the purchaser
of the sugar, his postoffioo nddr -?s, tin
amount of > ugar purchased, and th<
'date on which the purchase is made
These records must bo kept where

to two pounds it one time to people
living in towns and cities, and tx
