From the warehouses it goes to the
mill. The writer had the privilege of
visiting the big Gulf Coast Mill just
in the eastern part Of town one day
this week, and it's operation is some.
thing wonderful. One hundred pound
sacks of finest quality of milled rice
is automatically weighed out and
sacked, one every minute and half in
this big concern, besides the various
bi.products, such as rice polish, bran
etc. The mill just now is grinding
under the heaviest work of the season.
With fair weather two or three
weeks longer practically the entire
crop will be safe in the warehouses
The yield is turning out in most cases
better than was expected. The grade
of the rice is usually lowered where il
has remained in the shocks during al
the heavy rains, but the prices have
been fairly satisfactory and after al
the farmers are gong to realize goot
money as a rule on this years crop.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC
TRA|NMEN STRIKE

Following up the ultimatum delivered
to the Railroad officials general strike
was declared yesterday evening at
seven o'clock. The strike includes
about 5000 operatives on 2400 miles Of
the Sunset Lines.
There are four orders invOlvedin the
strike as follows: The Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Engineers, Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Firemen and Enginermen.
Order of Railway Conductors n d
Brotherhood Of Railroad Trainmen.
The lines involved comprise all the Sun
set Central lines and their branches
between New Orleans and Ell PaS0
with the exception of the Houston &
Texas Central & the Houston, East and
West Texas.
The controversy between the opera
| tives and the Company has been over
the settlement of certain grievances OF
the four allied orders. The orders have
presented a statement showing 81 items
of complaint wherein they say the
Company has violated their contract
with the operatives. The officials refuse
to treat with the allied orders in the
settlement of the grievances saying
i. they are willing to meet the individual
orders in the manner they have been
accustomed to in the settlement Of
grievances.
There is a difference in interpretR-
ton ofcertain clauses Of the contracts
existing between the Company al1
operatives which seems to be the pria-
cipal bone OF contention.
1t has been thought that Federal liz
PREVENTION could be invoked and an
arbitration effected through the Ed
man-NeWandS Arbitration Act and
many OF the commercial organizations
have been working to this end but III
effects failed ana yesterday evening tlR
entire force walked out.
), This morning the bnlletin board
shows all passenger trains annulleu on
: account of the strike except No. 9 aud

Gals of the ROAD. No freight trains are

The weather for the past two weeks
has been ideal and every thresher in
this section is running to its fullest
capacity from dawn till night.
One of these big machines is a revel'
alton to most people. They take those
sheaves of rice as fast as two men can
feed them from the wagon, cut the
bands, thresh every grain from the
stalk, convey the chaff forty feet away
from the machine and sack the rice, all
in startling rapidity.
Wednesday the writer visited one OF
these machines in operation. Five
hundred sacks of rice each weighing
over two hundred pounds are threshed
and sacked each day. Something re-.
markable, isn't it? 1t takes from six
J to twelve teams in the field to haul the
rice to the thresher as fast as it takes
! it up.
| The Welsh warehouses are being
| taxed too right now. 1t is an interest
ing sight just now to see the line OF
wagons waiting to be unloaded. Some
times thirty or forty are waiting in
line for their turn, each wagon carry
ing from twenty to thirty sacks. We
are told that from two to three
thousand sacks of rice are daily un
loaded at each of tbs big warehouses
here now. When it is realized thai
this means that from fifteen to twenty
thousand dollars a day is turned loos,
in Welsh and in this section it is boun'
! to mean prosperity.

that he be sent along with the
other prisoner. Il am wanted

a man whose note he had en-

United States Seine Exporter

Washington. - How the United
States is changing from a great
world market for food-stuffs to
an exporter of manufactures and
manufacturers materials is
shown in every report issued
nowadays by the bureau Of
foreign and domestic comerce.
The bureaus latest figures, show
a growth in exports of manufac-
lures from S468, 100000 in 1903
to 81, 200, 900, 900 in the fiscal
year just closed, and in manu-
facturers' materials from S459, =
600, 900 to $40, 900, 900 while the
exports of food-stuffs remained
at stand-stiIl, $50, 900, 900 hav-
ing been the value of the exports
in that line both in 1913 and in
1903. Fresh beef exports have
fallen from 1885, 100000 pounds
in 1903 to only 100000 this
past year; beef cattle from $50. :
100000 a decade ago to 81, OOO,-
600 in 1913; and canned beef
from 10000, 900 pounds to 1000

Hard TO Get Settled

Some of the Republican office
holders of West Virginia appear
to find it difficult matter to get
settled. They pick out the jobs
they want, get the governor to
appoint them, and then discover
legal obstacles to their filing the
places. The Hon. Jim Lakin.
Tor example, has enjoyed a soft
snap for four years as chairman
OF the board of control, but when
the public service commission
was created he saw Job that
looked better to him than the
one he was holding. Governor
Hatfield consented to transfer
him, appointing w. M. o. Daw-
son as his successor, and thereby
rewarding the state chairmen of
two political parties, who had
combined their efforts to land
him in the gubernatorial chair.
Everything was lovely and the
aquatic fowl was suspended at
the proper altitude until some
misunderstanding Democrat but
ted in with a reference to the
law which prohibits any member
of the board of control from
holding lucrative state office
within year after his term has
expired. The Hon. jim had not
permitted a single day to expire
between jobs, and his new office
was lucrative with a large l..
To the uninitiated it might APP
pear that perpleXing situation
was thus created, but to the gov
ernor the solution of the problem
was simple. He made another
shift, putting Lakin back on the
board and giving Lee OFT, who
had been appointed a member of
the board of control but had not
qualified, the place on the public
service commission vacated by
Lakin.
1t is easy enough to side-step
the law after you get into the
State Office Holders Club, and
once you become a member you
are certain of a residence on
Easy street, as it is one of the
rules of the organization to con-
slider every member qualified to
fill any office. Register.

Complications May Arise

Washington, July 20. Com
plications are predicted as GER
tain to arise over the installation
of the direct election method for
the selection Of United States
senators.
Most Of the trouble expected
to result is from the failure of
state legislatures to provide mon
ey for carrying into effect the
recent amendment to the con
stitution.
Leaders of the senate MAORI
ty are more anxious about the
situation than the Republicans.
Should two or more vacancies
occur on the Democratic side of
the chamber, the majority would
be gone. There are 80 senator
ial terms which will expire on
March 3, 1915. Several of the
state affected already have pro-
vided a method of election of
senators, but a great many have
not. Vacancies caused by death
or resignation may come at any
time.
