What the War
Moues Mean
By J. w. T. MASON
Written for tho United Press)

NEW YORK. Nov. 13.-Lord Dav-
enport's warning to the house Of lords
that Britain will come to bankruptcy
II the present financial pace u main
tained should not be taken too ssri-
ously. Finances Of all the beiligsr-
ents. a. . matter Of fact, are disquist-
ing. chiefly from the enormous taxes
which accommodating debts will i'm
pose.
England's bankruptcy 10 still very
distant. In fact. the lord himself
pointed out that the next loan. and
the next. might be met. though he
expressed fear for some Of the latter
ones. It u probable that Davenport's
fear is not that Great Britain will re-
pudiate her Indebtedness. but that
the wealthy must pay taxes to prsvnt
bankruptcy. Laborites regard Daven-
port 40 ono Of the leading reaction
aries.
Lord Northclife recently saAd that
after the war. the poor Of England
will be richer and the rich poorer.
Az a matter Of fact. Q certain class
OF millionaires are beginning 70 Ts-
volt at the costliness Of the war. They
realize the permanent consequences
to their bank accounts. This may
compel governmental economy, and
at the same time, their discontinue
may prove to be great factor toward
forcing peace.

CALHOUN FALLS

Among the interesting things to
be seen in Calhoun Falls, is the ar
tesian well in the grounds of the
Calhoun Mills. 1t is particularly
interesting from the fact that in
boring, there was no expectation or
thought of obtaining a flowing well,
bat when the boring tools reached
a depth of sixty-one feet, the water
g1shed up over the casing, and has
been flowing ever since. Another
we'll was started about one hundred
feet from the former, and although
it was bored to a depth of two hum
dred and fifty feet, it did not prove
to be a flowing well.
MIR. M. D. Whitman, of New York,
Vice-President of the VIM. Whit
man Co., the selling agents for the
Calhoun Mills, has been here in
specting the plant.
A few days since, Mr.. H. W.
Lawson had one of his three room
tenant houses destroyed by fire, the
loss was partly covered by insur-
ance.
Mrs. M. C. Baker is away on a
visit to relatives in Charleston and
expects to be gone several weeks.

who has been home on a short visit,

TELEPHONE LINES.

.Abbeville should be connected
with every part of the county by
telephone. AS it is now the service
to almost every point in the county
is most unsatisfactory. A man can
do good days work while he is
getting connection with Due West
central. Some improvement should
be made in this lire as we'll as other
lines. There is no excuse for the SER
vice between Abbcville and Due
West. If the line is not put in prop
= er shape at once the supervisor
should require its removal from the
puhIic roads. Only last year Ander-
son county paid verdict in a dam
age suit on account of roope
stretched across the road. 1t is al
most miraculous that Abbeville
county has not been sued on account
of someone driving into some of the
wires of the telephone systems in the
county.
With proper telephone service,
the merchants of Abbeville would be

THE FORWARD PASS.

After reading Senator Tillman's ac-
count of how the new district bill passed
Congress, we are impressed with tie
fact that the South Carolina delegation
only scored by means of the forward
pass The Senator says that when the
bill was passed forward, it was caught
by Jimmy Byrnes, who carried it over
for a touchdown. Of course, Senator
Tillman admits that he had a good deal
20 do with the matter himself in the
way of tackling few Republicans, and
Keeping them on the ground.
We are sorry that the Senator did not
give Congressman Aiken credit for get
ting up the game.

able to do a considerable business
which they do not now get. With
connections to every part of the
county, large amount of goods
would be sold and shipped out by
mail which are now bought at other
places.
Would it not be a good invest
ment for the business men of Able
vile to build telephone lines to the
different towns and central points in
the county? Abbeville should be
kept in touch with the rest of the
county. 1t can only be done by
means of better telephone facilities.
If anything happens now in Lown-
desville or Mccormick, or any inter-
vening station, the news goes every
where except to Abbeville.
A few lines of telephone could be
built at a very small cost which
would reach every part of the county
By arranging for connections with
the local telephone companies in the
different towns, we would be able to
keep up with every part of the coun-
ty, and we would not look to Ander-
son for news from Lowndesville, and
to Greenwood for news from Nc
Cormick. A small charge should
be made for each message to pre-
vent the constant use of the lines by
people who talk the same thing over
all day long to all the neighbors. 1t
will require the services of man to
keep the lines in proper repair, and
the charges should be enough to
keep up these repairs.
AS the merchants would no doubt
be most interested in the project we
suggest that they consider the mat
ter and make such investigation as
is necessary with a view to deter
mining the practicability of the plan
