Let Us Have Daylight.

Why can't the users or eiecVr'c
current have it in the day time now
please? Why will the town authon
ties promptly shut off all day current
as soon as daylight appears ? Is TINS
q new sort of brand OF economy ?
You have been paying for current
since the Doth day of August, and

are adyised) to get a single dollar OF
this back by selling such day current
as was possible.
The writer had occasion to be IN
mr townsman's mill day or two
ago and it was inky dark about .
O'Clock and everybody cropping around
to see and it was an hour before
quitting time.
The proprietor informed us that
ne had threatened to put in Il small
generator and make his own electric
ity for lighting his mill, but was pre-
vailed upon not to do 50 upon the
promise that day current would he
furnished by the town. What has
been done to get the Union Knitting
Mill in line? They want the cur
rent, but there is something that the
town has to do yet to be prepared to
give them the current when their
motor is installed.
Get busy. This is business mat
Ter and one in which the taxpayers
are interested as well as those who
want to pay some money TO the to"h

An invitation.

We renew our invitation to MIR.
LeGore to use the columns of TIE
CLARION for any discussion of the
merits of his bridge sale to the
County.
We have noticed quite a lengthy
argument in the valley Register,
which is some distance from the
community which this bridge serves
and necessarily, they not beng as
fully advised as those who live closer
home" Mr.. Legore's arguments may
seem to be more than plausible.
1t can do no harm to the PROJECT
to discuss this with the CLOSE home
folks and if any statements are too
highly colored, surely correction
will not be amiss and no exception
can be taken to it.
Mr.. LeGore lays some great stress
upon the saving to be made on
compromise, rather than going int"
the courts. Now this is rather in the
nature of a mild threat to scare those
who are naturally timid as to the re-
suits when it comes to getting INTO a
law suit. We have pointed out IN
these columns that if the ground is
50 very sure that the Act of the Legls-
lature is final and binding and is
mandatory upon the County Com
missioners, then all this talk OF com
promise is idle.
Our stand is that if this contention
be true (Which we deny) the tax
payers of the County, if they have to
pay for this bridge, are amply able
to pay the costs of IA suit to deter
mine the truth or falsity Of the con-
tention that the County Commission
ers have to act, whether they want
to or not. We hereby re-extend the
invitation for discussion of the mat
ter in our columns.

CRIMSON CLOVER SEED PRICES.

Prices for imported crimson clover
and hairy vetch seed have recently
shown such a marked upward ten.
dency that specialists of the Depart
ment fear that the cost of these seed
of which Europe is the chief source,
will interfere with the increasing use
Of these leguminOus cover crops. In
fact, it is feared that the prices OF
the seed of these legumes may 60 SO
high as to make it inadvisable to
plant them this year,
Before the present European con-
ditions arose, crimson clover seed
was selling at from 81 to S. per bus
hel. Up to August Is there was a
scarcity of this seed in the United
States, owing to the fact that the re-
ceipts from Europe were smaller than
usual. The prices then advanced to
from s. 80 to 50 per bushel. Since
that date importations have con-
tinued to arrive, until there is now
more imported seed available. for fall
seeding than there was in this coun-
try a year ago at this time. This
seed, according to the Departments
information, was all imported at APP
proximately the same price as that
sold for 81 to S4.5 per bushel in
the early part of the season. The
present high price, therefore, is re-
garded by the Department as un-
warranted, from the standpoint of
the supply and the import price OF
the seed. Some dealers are continu-
ing to sell at the former price, but
these are exceptions.
If the present high price is main
tanned, the specialists are doubtful
whether crimson clover can be profit
ably used as green manure crop
for seeding in corn or on vacant
ground, or under other conditions
where the catch is not reasonably
certain. Under such conditions they
point out that it will be better prac-
tice to SOW rye this fall and use the
difference in price in adding nitrogen
to the soil in the form of nitrate OF
soda or some other highly nitrogen
Gus fertilizer. The rye will afford a
winter cover preventing washing and
teaching, and can be plowed under
in the spring to add humus to the
soil.
When crimson clover is being used
regularly as a winter cover crop III

Declares Struggle Will
End All War.

Preaching on the Armageddon pro-
phecy in the Bible, Rev. DR.. Oliver
Huckel, pastor of the Associate Con-
gregational Church, in his sermon
this morning declared that he be-
lievcs that this war will be the last
great war and that new era is about
10 dawn.
Many other sermons were preached
this morning on the significance OF
the bloody events in Europe ana
PRAYERS were offered for a peaceful
solution of the troubles there. The
theme of peace was taken in response
to a request made by the Star Span
plcd Banner Centennial Committee
before the war was thOught of in
Europe, and thus the services marked
the close of the Banner week, which
was also ushered in with sermons and
prayer.
DR.. Huckcl's views of the war will
be of interest to all students OF tn"
Bible. After reading quotations ana
explaining the Armagcddon proph-
ecy, he said:
81 believe that the Bible prophecy
is being exactly and absolutely full
filled in this awful war. But 1t does
not mean the end of tn" war and the
destruction of all things. 1t means
the end of war and the coming OF the
Lord in the peace of the world. This
will he the last great war.
In the chief prophecy Of the Bible
is not war and destruction. That
must come, but it is not the end, but
the presage of the end. The chief
prophecy of the Bible is the kingdom
of truth, Justice, brotherhood and
peace, the commonwealth OF Christ,
in which men shall love their neigh
bors as themselves, in which GODS
will shall be done ON earth as 1t is IN
Heaven, in which they shall beat
their swords into plough shares and
their spears into pruning hooks; ma
ton shall not lift up sword against
nation, neither shall they learn war
any more. This is Gods word which
cannot be broken, and the great pro-
phecy is hundred times repeated in
the Bible.
"This present war is prophetic
sign. 1t is awful, and yet we can be
brave in the face of it. Good will
come out of it. 1t is bloodshed, but
progress. 1t will purge the hearts OF
men and of the nations from much
sclfishness and hate. God will make
even the wrath of men to praise Him
and to fulfill His sovereign purposes.
The barbarism of the military ideal
will surely end. The folly OF war
and the wisdom of peace will be seen
by all the world. "--Baltimorc News

Washington Gets Next Encampment.

Washington Gets Next Emcampment
Gettvsburg's battlefield interests will
be gratifed with the decision of the
Grand Army Encampment just closed at
Detroit to hold their meeting for 1913 at
Washington, ID. C. The veterans plan
to make this an important event. The
first of their great parades after the war
was held in the streets of Washington In
1865. This will be the fftieth anniver-
sary of the close of the war and Of this
parade and it is argued by many that it
may also be the last parade of the
organization. Washington has always
attracted a larger gathering of the vete-
rams than any other city and it is believed
that next years encampment will be
larger in numbers than any of recent
years.
Thousands have in the past taken adj
vantage of these encampments to visit
the battlefield at Gettysburg and those
who remember 1892 and 1902 will again
look forward to busy period during the
1918 encampment.
