BROWN ASKED To
END STRIKE; No
TRAINS run
Governor Requested by Union
Men to Urge Road to Take
Back Terminal Employees.

The trainmen's strike on the Georgia
road hangs upon but one point today
and the strikers are in hopes that an
adjustment will be reached. That is
the question Of whether the 40 striking
employees of the Atlanta joint termi-
mails shall be restored to their positions.
Governor Brown has been approached
by a representative of the unions with
the request that he take up the matter
with Superintendent Brand at Augusta
and urge him to recognize the Joint
terminal employees as component
part of the trainmen's organization and
restore them to their places with the
rest Of the men. He was not requested
to act in an official capacity but merely
to use his friendly Offices in showing
Mr.. Brand that a mere technical point
should not be permitted to prevent traf-
fic on the Georgia road and cause in
convenience and even suffering to citi-
zens along the line.
Superintendent Brand takes the po-
stion that the Joint terminal men are
not actual employees of his road and he
has no jurisdiction over them. He
maintains that they are employees of q
company composed of the Georgia, the
Louisville and Nashville and the At
lanta and West Point systems and that
they had no cause to Join the strike, as
they actually We're not involved. Train
men contend that superintendent Brand
is trying to separate the terminal en-
ployees from the ranks OF the Georgia
trainmen in order TO break up their or
ganiza ton. They insist that the joint
terminal employees are given orders by
Brand and carry out his instructions
and virtually are his employees.

JAIL HOLDING LAD AS
SLAYER OF PARENTS
GUARDED FROM MOB

QUINCY, ILL, Oct swim a spe-
cial guard thrown around the Jail and a
company of state militia held in readi-
ness to protect him from possible mob
vengeance, Ray Pfanschmidt passed a
sleepless night. He was arrested as
the slayer of his father, mother, sister
and school teacher, boarding at their
home.
The feeling against the young man,
who is graduate of the University Of
Illinois, is high and talk of violence is
heard on every side. Governor Deneen
has telegraphed Captain w. A, Long,
commander of Company f, Illinois Ma
tional Guard, to hold his men ready to
repel any attack on The Jail by mob.
Although suspected of the crime when
the bodies were discovered the young
man was not arrested until a blood
stained khaki suit was found. Plan
schmidt generally wore such uniform.
The estate left by the elder Plan

The city Of Atlanta will collect ST.,

CATTLE TICK ERADICATION.
Work to Begin in Newberry County,
Enormous Loss to the State From
Cattle Tick

Dear Sir: In considering the eX1en-
sion of tick eralic aiicn work during
this present year We ale coEtempltt-
ing the advisability of beginning
operations in NeWberry county.
The loss occasioned by the cattle
tick (Margaropus Annulatus) to the
cattle industry is estimated to reach
the enormous proportions of about
s1,10O,OOO annually to the State of
South Carolina lone, and Of about
s40,000,0OO to the whole South. This
unouestionably proves the necessity
for immediate and definite action to
eradicate this pest.
Up to this time the Clemson college
veterinary division, in cooperation
with the bureau of animal industry
has conducted the work in II counties
Of this State and have been rewarded
in their efforts by the fact that four
of these counties have been placed
above the federal quarantine line and
the other eight have been recommend
ed for release by the bureau officers
about April 1, 1912.
These results are very satisfactory,
vet past experience has shown that
we have been laboring under great
difficulties which cost us unnecessary
time and money owing to lack of suf-
ficient interest and cooperation from
some Of the cattle owners-others
have lent us their loyal support. Be-
cause of this we have decided not to
extend the work except into those
counties which give promise Of loyal
support and definite county, as well
as Individual cooperation.
wish, through your columns, to
reach all who may be and should be
interested in this work and request
that they write to the Clemson college
veterinary division Immediately, stat
ing their interest in this matter and
giving any other information that they
think will aid US in this great cause.
An immediate reply is very essential
and will be greatly appreciated.
Very truly yours,
W. F. Burleigh,
Assistant State Veterinarian.

Anderson Intelligencer.
Here's a tip: We believe Gov. Blease
regrets for the sake Of the State that
the legislature has overridden so many
of his vetoes, but personally does not
care a rap. He has put these meas
ures squarely up to the members OF
the legislature, who will have to an
sver to the people of the State tor
their acts and not to the governor OF
South Carolina. They are hurung
themselves more than they are Gov
Blease and they will find this out to
their sorrow next summer when the
votes are counted. There will be more
new faces in legislature next year
than at any time since Ben Tlllmans
crowd went in. Mark this down anu
next summer after the votes nave
been counted you will see that we

Church of the Redeemer.

(Rev. Edw. F'ulenwider, Pastor).
Nothing preventing the following will
be the program of divine services at
the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer
next Sunday:
II a. m.-The regular morning ser
vice. The pastor will preach on the
subject: "a Mans Style.' This will
! be the first of a series of three prac-
tical sermons dealing with everyday
| life. 1t is true in life that mans
very appearance, manner, dress, voice,
! handshake, etc., have much to do with
; his success. The good sermons of
the preacher fail to accomplish the
| desired aim because his 'style' OF
preaching is not liked. The young
man fails to get the fine position be-
cause of his "style" of doing things.
! The merchant fails because the peo-
ple do not like his 'style'' of waiting
on customers. The Christian fails to
advance the cause of his religion be-
cause his ''style," or manner of life,
is not attractive, Some practical and
homely thoughts will be presented in
| the sermon.
o. m.-The Sunday school meets.
There will be good music at both ser
vices.
The public is cordially invited to
all services.
