NOW FOR BRITAIN.

IT HE development OF the last few days have brought
about the feeling that the differences between the
United States and Germany will be settled in the
near future, and that the German government will accede
to the wishes of this country in the vital points in con.
troversy. This being the case, 1t is about time for vii.
son to send a note over to England which will make the
officials Of that nation come to a quick realization that
the United States intends to play fair to all and that
England cannot contiue to disregard the wishes OF this
country in certain points in question without bringing
about a crisis.
The new note to Britain is now about ready to be sent
forward, and while 1t will not be in the form Of an ulti.
matum to that country, it is said, that it will be sufi.
ciently 10 the point TO show that our patience in tho
matte. is about at an end, and that this country will
not countenace much longer the interference OF Eng.
land in our commerce to neutral nations.
To be fair President Wilson must demand that Eng.
land respect our rights the same as the chief executive
OF the alton demanded that the Germans respect our
Interpretation OF the freedom OF the seas. The viola.
ton of our rights. whether 1t be in one or another, is a
violation of right, and calls for prompt action.
England has been taking things in a high.handed fash.
ion. owing, no doubt. to the fact that she imagined the
United States was so busy with Germany that Uncle
Sam had all he cared to handle. With the German stu.
alton likely to be adjusted, giving the United States full
time for the matter with Britain, that nation may enc
down a peg or two.
Britain must respect the rights of this country. She
has SO far ignored our protests. trying to justify her
actions by the statements made by Sir Edward Grey.
The United States has denied all the Qualifications so
far set up; and President Wilson will no doubt demand
in his next note, in very clear language, our position.
1t is up to England to do what is right In the con.
troversy.

COAL I INCREASE.

n, HElproposition to raise from 70 cents 10 40 cents the
dtferentiall In the freight rates on shipment Of coal
from West Virginia 10 western markets Is bringing
forth a mighty protest all over the state. and business
men in every line of industry all over the state of West
Virginia are Joining with the coal operators In declaring
that the rates are discriminatory and demanding that
action be taken in the immediate future TO Illustrate the
proposed scheme to raise the freight rates on West Vir-
Etnia shipments. 1t is not 2 question which concerns
the coal operators alone. but one which holds the consid.
Grafton Of every business man. II the proposed change
In rates should go through as planned, it would mean a
blow to the industrial prosperity of West Virginia from
eyeryEangle and this is the reason for tho organized pro.
test under way against any such action.
Coal Is the chief wealth OF our commonwealth, and
any action aimed as a blow against the coal trade is a
blow to the prosperity of the state as a whole. The coal
trade Is the barometer of business in West Virginia.
WhenSthet coal trade is good, when the mines are working
full time and up to the limit of production. when ship.
tents OF coal are heavy, West Virginia is booming
not only Is the coal trade good. but the effect OF pros.
perftyi in this line is felt with good results in all other
lines Of trade. On the other hand, when the coal trade
Ii of color, business generally Is off color, and this is a
condition not at all to be desired. There is no doubt
that the proposed discriminatory rates would be detri-
mentalsto the coal trade in this state. and therefore it
would be detrimental to all the business interests of the
commonwealth. Business men all over the state realize
this fact and they are. not going to allow such an out.
Iagestolb be perpetrated IL they can possible avoid it.
Meetings have been held in all sections of the state
since the 9proposed increase In rates WINS brought ont

All the windows in the building were

Several aircraft were observed at
Dover approaching the harbor. but
high angle guns were turned against
the hostile fiiers and they turned and
fled ont to sea.
1t was reported from both Deal and
Margate that Zeppelins had been seen.
1t was at first believed that only
one Zeppelin had taken part in the
aerial fOray and that il had been made
for scouting purposes, but as reports
continued To arrive here from various
cities the belief was conceived that
two or more airships had partici-
pated.
