GJSR\t A MV'S REEL
Germany’s reply to the note sent by
the United States touching the sinking
of tlie “Lusitania" cun hardly be a sur
prise to anyone who has Htudied the at
titude of the kaiser and his advisers
during the present war towards all the
nations of the earth.
Its tone and tenor, purpose and pur
port, are altogether in keeping with
the spirit of the Prussian “bunch” that
has ruled and overruled and misruled
Germany since the days of Bismarck.
Even an impartial reader must be im
pressed with the contrast between the
note sent by President Wilson and the
answer of Germany. The former was
altogether courteous; the latter is little
less than curt. The one appeals to the
highest principles of humanity; the
other ignores these principles utterly.
The American note was thoroughly
conciliatory; the German reply is little
less than openly defiant. The United
States asked that Germany disavow so
monstrous an act as the sinking of the
“Lusitania;" Germany retorts by say
ing that the disaster would not have
happened had the United States exer
cised proper vigilance as to the cargo
of the steamer. We asked for a guar
antee that American ships and Ameri
can people shall be protected in the ex-
erciso of their rights to sail the high
seas; the reply quibbles and temporizes,
and fails to admit that we have any
rights nt all, either upon the land or
upon the sea. Wo insist that proper
reparation shall be made for damage
done to American shipping by German
submarines and aeroplanes; Germany
proposes to wait till she can find out
whether the American view of the mat
ter is sustained by the facts ns she
(Germany) ahull ascertain them by in
vestigation. Our country asks that
proper amends be made for the mur
derous drowning of more than a hun
dred Americans on the “Lusitania;"
the State department at Berlin replies
with characteristic effrontery that Eng
land first, and the United States sec
ondly, were responsible for this whole
sale slaughter.
The German government clniniB that
its reply to the protest of the United
States is no more than n preliminary
discussion of the questions at issue;
that it wishes for a common basis of
admitted facts and the meaning of
terms. This is a mere subterfuge—a
dodging of the question quite in keep
ing with the evasive tactics of the Ger
man chancellory.
The only justification offered for the
sinking of the "Lusitania" is hardly
ingenious. The ilimsy defense made is
that the "Lusitania" wus an auxiliary
cruiser; that she carried Canudiun re
serves for the British army; that she
was secretly armed; and that her cargo
consisted partly of munitions of war.
These contentions, if they mean any
thing at all, mean that the United
States was guilty of a gross departure
from its policy of neutrality when it al
lowed the "Lusitania" to leave New
York harbor. The inference is left that
the port authorities at New York were
either utterly incompetent when they
allowed a vessel thus loaded to depart,
or that this country is in such close
sympathy with the allies that we wish
to favor them in every way possible.
In view of the neutral attitude firmly
and honestly maintained by this Gov
ernment since the outbreak of the war,
the insinuations conveyed by the Ger
man note are insulting. President Wil
son, in his forthcoming reply, is ex
pected to call Germany's blulf, and
make the position of this Government
so plain as to allow no room for further
evasion of the questions at issue. “We
shall then see what we shall see.”

Questions of international law are
sure to come up in seasons of war.
The rights of neutrals, the doings of
belligerents and the protection of non-
combatants are too vitally involved in
a great war like the one now raging in
Europe to be ignored.
And the laws governing nations in
their conduct towards eich other nev r
seemed more uncertain and less re
garded than they are to-day. Possibly
none of the warring nations are abso
lutely guiltless in this matter. It is
certain that Germany is not.
The course of the Kaiser and his sup
porters has pro’eeded upon the princi
ple that might makes right—that a na
tion has a right to do anything that it
has the power to do. This barbarous
philosophy was openly advocated by a
German writer some years since, and,
while some said he was crazy, his ideas
fitted into the German policy so well,
as that policy has been carried out in
the blo-dy struggle that has gone on
for ten months now, it has evidently
been accepted by those who are re
sponsible for this war.
International law is dependent upm
treaties and agreements between na
tions, but nations that feel strong
enough to do so violate it with utter
impunity. Germany has felt strong
enough to defy the world; hence Ger-
J many has had little regard for inter-
I national law, or the rights of neutrals
and noneombatants under that law.
If this war results in the establish
ment of an international court, armed
with all the authority of any court and
backed by the nations that create it,
the consequences of the great struggle
will not be altogether futile. Until
there is such a tribunal of the nations,
international law will be a dead letter.

Last Days of Commencement.
JUNIOR SENIOR DEBATE.
Despite the inclemency of the weath
er a large crowd gathered at the audi
torium on Wednesday evening of last
week to hear the declamations, recita
tions and debate. Those taking part
were members of the junior and senior
classes of the Newnan high school It
was one of the most appreciative audi
ences the auditorium has ever held, and
every number on the programme was
greeted with applause.
The master of ceremonies, Mr. Wts.
Askew, president of the senior class,
made the welcome address, and gave a
short summary of the year's work,
dwelling upon the honors bestowed on
the high school, and its splendid record
in the oratorical and athletic contests
with other schools. HIb speech proved
the excellent work of the pupils and
the efficiency of the superintendent and
his excellent corps of teachers.
Medals were offered for the best dec
lamation, the best recitation, and the
two composing the winning side in the
debate. These medals were offered by
the Reading Gircle, the Junior Reading
Circle, and members of the Newnan
liar. Mr. Frank Gearreld’s declamation,
"Speech Before the Virginia Conven
tion,” was the opening number, and
was splendidly given. "Southern Chiv
alry" was the second declamation, giv
en by Mr. Carl Boone. This was one of
the best efforts of the evening, the
young man showing marked oratorical
ability. The fourth declamation was
“The Unknown Speaker," by Mr. John
Power. His subject was well chosen,
and the interest of the audience was
sustained throughout the entire speech.
"Robert Emmett's Vindication” was
given by Mr. Arthur Murphey. His
perfect enunciation, dramatic expres
sion and easy presence, won for him the
medal for declamation.
Miss Jennie Fowler’s recitation was
the first on the programme, the subject
being "The Little Scottish Martyrs."
This young lady is one of Newnan’s
most talented readers, and on this oc
casion she won new laurels. Aside
from her natural grace, her subject
combined pathos with sprightly humor
and dramatic climaxes, showing Miss
Fowler’s versatility most pleasingly.
MisB Virginia Glover's subject was
"Bobbie Shaftoe,” and her bright and
blithesome manner captivated the audi
ence at the very beginning. "Hagar,”
a biblical reading, was given by Miss
Sarah Hall. Miss Hall’s histrionic abil
ity is unusually marked, and her sub
ject waB admirably suited to her dra
matic style and perfect stage presence.
She won the medal for the best recita
tion.
"Resolved, That Capital Punishment
Should be Abolished," was the subject
of one of the most spirited debates
ever held in Newnan. Those on the
affirmative were Miss Mary Freeman
and Mr. Glenn Post; the negative, Miss
Zebuline Murray and Mr. Thomas Brad
ley. The affirmative won.
The concluding number was a violin
solo, "Polish Dance,” by Miss Mary K.
Parks, Mrs. Will Askew accompanying,
and was beautifully tendered.
The medals were awarded by Hon.
Garland M. Jones, who in his usual
happy way made a short congratulato
ry speech to the winning contestants.
GRADUATING EXERCISES.
The graduating exercises were held
at the auditorium on Thursday evening,
thus concluding one of the most bril
liant commencements in the history of
the Newnan public schools. The stage
was appropriately decorated with the
class colors, gold and black, with a
woodland scene for a background. Mr.
Ellis H. Peniston presided. He ex
pressed regrets that the class had come
to the "parting of the wayB;” men
tioned with what perfect harmony all
had worked to bring the class to a
standing of excellency. They were
justly proudly of being the largest
graduating class since the founding of
the schools, the greatest number of
honor graduates, and the highest mark
made by any class as a whole.
The essays by Miss Gabrielle John
son and Miss Dorothy Jones were given
in the most charming and effective
manner. Their subjects were happily-
chosen, and they acquitted themselves
beautifully.
A tilting conclusion to the evening's
exercises was the eloquent and instruc
tive address of Hon. H. A. Hall. This
gifted speaker never appeared to bet
ter advantage, and he was given the
closest attention by the large audience.
He was introduced by Col. R. S. Ar
nold.
The full programme of the evening's
exercises was as follows —
Invocation —Rev. E. W. Stone.
Address of welcome—Ellis Peniston.
Welcome song—Senior class.
Essay, " ’Tis Wisdom to be Wise
from Another’s Point of View”—Miss
Gabrielle Johnson.

Coweta Boy One of World’s Great
est War Correspondents.
The brilliant work of Mr. William
Phillip Simms as war correspondent in
France for the United Press Associa
tion is a matter of pride to his many
friends in Coweta. He was reared in
Grantville, and attended the public
schools of Newnan for a year or more.
After leaving school he engaged in
newspaper work, first as a reporter on
the staff of the Atlanta Journal, and
afterwards with the Cincinnati Times-
Star. Later he entered the service of
the United Press Association and was
sent to Paris. When the European war
broke out he was assigned to duty as
war correspondent, and in this position
has distinguished himself, being the
only American journalist chosen to
represent this country at the battle
front. Alluding to the honor thus con
ferred upon Mr. Simms, Hon. Myron
T. Herrick, late U. S. Ambassador to
France, spoke of him recently in the
following appreciative terms —
"Simms' selection to represent
America on the official tour of French
and Belgian battlefields was very for
tunate. I know him personally, and
wish to speak in highest terms of his
work. He is the ablest of all journal
ists in Paris, and I am sure was able
to do justice to the honor given him.”
Quite as complimentary is the fol
lowing comment in a late issue of the
Fourth Estate, a New York publica
tion devoted to the interests of Ameri
can journalists and journalism, viz;
"One of the highest compliments
paid the United Press during the year
was the selection of William Phillip
Simms, United Press manager at Paris,
to represent. America at the front,
when only one correspondent from each
of eight neutral nations was permitted
to go. Up to this time Simms is the
only American correspondent who has
been officially permitted to visit the
lines in France."
Mr. Simms is a brother of Mr. R. E.
Simms, of this city.
Judge Steve Powell Coming Next
Week.
It will delight his many friends to
learn that Judge J. S. Powell is ex
pected from the Philippines next week
on his biennial vacation, and will spend
six months with his family here. He
arrived at San Francis 'o yesterday, and
will reach home next Thursday,
Noting his departure from Iloilo, P.
I., where he has been stationed for the
past four or five years, the Iloilo Daily
Enterprise-Press of April 27 refers to
him as "the mist popular Judge m the
Philippine Islands,” and says—
“The Enterprise-Press is not often
called upon to record the departure of
the most popular citizen of the town,
but in the ease of the departure o:
Judge John S. Powell i: is necessary to
depart from the custom established
many years since by this paoer, and re
cord that when His Honor, Judge Pow
ell, sails to-day for a six-months’ vaca
tion there will have left our city and
the Philippine Islands the man who
bears with him the most sincere re
gard ot not only the American colony,
the other foreign colonies, but the love
and admiration of every Filipino who
has the respect and the iove of his
country at heart.
"The writer, haling from the same
‘neck of the woods’ as does the Judge,
may be pardoned for expressing his
love for a man who has exhibited uni
form kindness and courtesy to all be
fore whom legal questions have come
for decision.
"It may be only fair to state that the
only cause in which the writer was in
terested was decided adversely to him,
and this only impressed upon his mind
the fact that John S. Powell, the Judge
of this district, is absolutely pure and
undefiled.
“The banquet tendered him before his
departure was an expression of the love
and appreciation, not only of the Amer
icans, but the Britishers, the Germans,
the Swiss, and every other nationality
represented in Iloilo. It was an out
pouring of the love of every man, wo
man and child in Iloilo for that person
age which the bible describes as the
greatest production of civilization—an
honest Judge.
"When the Moros were up here last
year they went as a body to Judge
Powell and presented their homage at
his feet, telling him that when he pre
sided over the judicial destinies of their
district they looked upon him as a fath
er. What more beautiful tribute could
have been paid a judicial officer? It
bespoke their gratitude, their love,
their appreciation of his honesty and
square dealing.
"If any man in the Philippine Islands
1 ever expects to leave here with a testi
monial to his honorable dealing, the
writer fails to see wherein he could re
ceive a more glowing tribute than that
which was paid him by those ignorant
Moros, who have not yet been given
the privilege of education the same as
the Filipinos, who v ill to-morrow go
j down and wish Godspeed to the man
who has administered their laws and
their precepts for the past several
| years.
"A wise judge, a clean man—how
difficult to find one! We wish him God
speed—we pray for his return. ‘I go,
but to return again,’ and this, we hope,
will be Judge Powell’s ultimatum upon
leaving us."
OLDER BUT STRONGER
To be healthy at seventy, prepare*at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength-building and blood-nourishing
properties of Scott’s Emulsion whichi9a
food, a tonic and a medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scott’s.

Glass-Almon.
Wednesday afternoon at half-past 4
o’clock, at the bride's home near New
nan, occurred the marriage of Miss
Elcia May Glass to Mr. Francis Roy
Almon. in the presence of a number of
relatives and friends ef the contracting
parties. The decorations were lovely,
the color-scheme of white and green
being carried out in every detail. A
profusion of vines of the "leafy month
of June” were festooned in delicate
tracery over walls, windows and pic
tures. Moss-green rugs covered the
floor, giving an air of outdoor beauty
and elegance. Emerald ferns, daisies
and jasmines, luxuriantly potted plants,
and pedestals twined with graceful
vines, crowned with many-sprayed can
delabra shedding their soft light over
the scene, formed an altar of rare beau
ty before which the handsome couple
stood, while sentiment was maturing
into destiny. "Oh Promise Me” was
sung with fine expression, after which
Miss Marian Swords, of Conyer9, ren
dered the wedding march with a skill
ful touch. Little Miss Elcie Brown, of
Charlotte, N. C., niece and namesake
of the bride, daintily dressed in pink
and white, preceded the bridal couple
to the altar, strewing rose-p^ra's in
their path. The ceremony uniting the
two lives was the beautiful ring ritual,
pronounced in an impressive manner by
Rev. L. P. Glass, brother of the bride,
and pastor of Fayetteville Baptist
church. The bride was gowned in a
stylish blue suit, with becoming hat,
and never appeared lovelier. The
groom seemed self-confident at having
secured such a prize in the lottery of
life. A most beautiful bridal bouquet of
roses, swansonias, ribbons and tulle,
was thrown to the young lady friends,
they grabbing as eagerly as girls in
college for crab apples. Miss Aldine
Glass was the lucky recipient.
The bridal party left immediately for
Newnan, where they boarded the train
for their future home at East Point.
“Around their dear domestic bower,
May wreaths of fadeless love entwine.”
Many valuable presents of use and
beauty attested the love and admira
tion of friends present and absent.
The out-of-town guests were Mr. and
Mrs. J. H. Brown, of Charlotte, N. C.;
Mr. and Mrs. Neil Glass, of LaGrange;
Rev. and Mrs. L. P. Glass, of Fayette
ville; besides a lovely group of six chil
dren, nieces and nephews of the bride,
whose presence added much to her hap
piness. Also, Mrs. Ruth Stevens and
little nephew, of East Point, and Mr.
and Mrs. Ben Moseley and little son,
of Carrollton. N. L. C.

We wish to thank the good people

We cannot find words to express our

have been such a comfort to us. May
God bless them all.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach the dls
eased portion of the ear. There ia only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con*
dition of the mucou3 lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it i
entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unl«*-~
the inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an In*
dimed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any c3fi
of deafness (caused by catarrhi that cannot
