question about the balloon.
. Early Thurrday morning a man

a balloon about <<~ty yards from bis

Gc-lsberg's store to get his shoes. Lat

the man's name was Masle Johnson,
and that he,lived on Mr. Daniels' place
three, miles from Anderson. He got
a pair of $2.00 children's sh OOM for
Unding that balloon tag.
A negro man, who failed to give

several times larger then the did one.
This oven will have capacity of 3,000

his old home at Wilson, North Caro
lina. To a reporter of The Intelligen

that the farmers of that section plant
tobacco quite extensively, making cot
ton their surplus crop altogether. He
talked with a farmer, he stated, who i
declared that he made more money
last fall than be had ever made. Farm

that the practice of right and the,.tole

trals are matters absolutely at the
Sycretlons of neutrals, and involve
no formal violation of neutrality,
?eruany, therefore^ did not complain
2f any ?ormai violEl?oa ol' iientrt?lityt
but the German government, in view
of complete evidence before it, can
not bel? pointing out thst it, togeth
er with the entire public opinion'of
Germany, feels itself to be severely
prejudiced by the fact thst neutrals

Lo the pr?sent, achieved no,, or only
Insignificant, results, while they are
making unlimited use of their right
by carrying on contraband traffic with
Great Britain and our other enemies.
"It IB
"If lt is a formal right of neutrals
to take no steps to protect their legi
timate trade with Germany, and even
to alina* themselves to be influenced
in the direction of the. conscious and
wilful restriction of their trade, on the
other band, they have the perfect
right,- which they unfortunately do not.
exercise, to cease contraband trade,
especially 1 narnia, with Germany's
enemies.
Using Seme Method,
"Di vir.v of this situation Germany,

Bees herself obliged 'to answer Great

If Great Britain, in her. fight against
Qermany, summons hunger ss an ally,
for the purpose of Imposing upon 'a
civilized people of seventy millions
the. choice between destitution end
starvation, or submission to Great
Britain's commercial will, then Ger

gauntlet and appeal to similar allies.

WUI Destroy Hostile Vessels.
"Acting from this point of view, the
berman admiralty proclaimed a naval

trey hostile . merchant vessels in

doe? uot fail to recognize that from
the action to be taken agatnit Great
Britain dangers arise which threaten
all trade within the war zone, without
distinction. .This is a neutral result
of mine warfare, which even under the
strictest observance of the limits of
International law endangers every
ship approaching the mine area. The
German government considers itself
entiled to hope thut all neutrals will
acquiesce fn these measures ss they

many is resolved, for the protection
of neutral ship<>hVT. even In the nsval
war zone, to do everything which is
at all compo.tble with the attainment
of this object.
Gave Ample Notice.
"In view of tho fact that Germany
gave the first proof of her good will
in fixing a time limit of not less than
fourteen days4 before the execution
of said measures, so that neutral ship
ping might have an opportunity of
making arrangements to avoid threat
ening danger, thia can mom surely be
achieved by remaining away from the
naval war sOne. Neutral vessels,
which, despite this ample notice which
greatly affects the achievement of our
alms In our war against Great Britain,
enter t*-eae closed waters will them
selves bear the responsibility for any
unfortunate' accidents that may occur.
Germany disclaims all responsibility
for such accidents and consequences.
"Germany has further expressly an
nounced the destruction of all enemy
merchant l?esela found within the war
cone, but not the destruction ot ai'
merchant vessels, as the United States
seems erroneously to hsve understood'
This, restriction which Germany im
poses upon itself ls prejudicial to thc
atm of our warfare, especially as lr
the application of the conception ol
contraband practiced by Great Brltait
towai ,IH Germany-which presumptiot
will not also be similarly Interprete*

Ready to Deliberate With I7.R.
"Germany is ready, finally, to de

cerntng any measures which mtgh
secure thc safety of legitimate ship
ping ef neutrals in the war zone. Ger
many cannot, however, forbear t
point out that all its efforts In th!
direction may be rendered very ililli
cult by two circumstances; first, th
mtsure of neutral flags by Britts!
mei chant vessels,! which is ind'ubltabl
known to the United States; second
the contraband trade already men
tipped, especially war materials, o
neutral vessels.
"Regarding tba. latter point, Gei
