Hailed as Trumpet Call.
Mr.. Lloyd Georges appeal is hailed
by the editorial writer's of the London
morning papers as a trumpet call to
the nation and government, especially
that section of the press which repre-
sents the party advocating conscrip-
ton.
The Daily Mail says: mo more urgent
message has ever been delivered to the
British nation by any statesman in our
history"
The Times expresses the hope that all
of Mr.. Lloyd Georges colleagues will
emulate "the courage and good sense
with which he is striving to save
British democracy as much from itself
as from the tyranny of German mill
ia rism.
The Morning Post thinks that Mr.
Lloyd George has performed perhaps
the greatest public service done by any
man not in the army or navy during
the war. The Post also calls for
committee of public safety on the
ground that the present cabinet is
much TOO unwieldy. and concludes.
ut is not yet too late to avert what
is foreboded, but the time is short"
Appeal Made to Labor.
George Nicoll Barnes, labor member
of parliament. speaking at Walworth last
night. said he did not believe there was
need for conscription, but it was needed
that the men have sent out to fight
our battles should be supported by the
men in the workshops better than they
are at the present moment"
He continued: Under the conditions
caused by the war we ought to regard
it as our solemn duty to turn out as much
as possible in every workshop in the
country. Speaking as a trade unionst
and a member of the Amalgamated Society
of Engineers, I am sorry to say 1 do not
believe that has been done"
James O'Grady. another labor member
who recently visited the front and con-
versed with Field Marshal French and
others in authority. said he had it from
the field marshal that this war had re-
solved itself into a battle between the
workmen and mechanics of this country
and the workmen and mechanics of Ger
many.
I'm these circumstances" added Mr.
OGrady, II say that every man who is
not doing all he to get utmost pro-
ductivity out of the workshops OF this
country is false to his country, is false
to his mates who are fighting at the
front. false to the ideals underlying this
war"

In the recent accounts of the fight ing in Servia it is recorded that the Serbs on the Morava front made magnificent resistance. But they could do nothing against the terrible and continuous bombardment and were shelled from position after posi- tion by their unseen foe The sol diers wept with rage because they were unable to get to close quarters with the enemy. For four days they held on against the terrible rain of shells, but they were compelled to abandon position after position with out once seeing a spiked helmet An officer, with tears in his eyes, said -"What is the use of having my brave lads slaughtered in this way by shrap- nel from an invisible enemy?"

FIERCE GERMAN ATTACK
CAPTURES 1851 FRENCH
Teuton's Struggle Through Argonne
in Effort to Reach
Eerdun.

The German thrust at Ferdun has
resulted in an important gain.
In the Argonne the German report
on Wednesday the capture Of French
positions along a front of mile and
four-fifths, the gain extending to a
depth of three-fifths of mile. The
hill known as No. 2S5 also was taken.
The official statement issued We'd
nesday says:
Western theatre: Fresh hand gre
made attacks near the SoucheZ Sugar
Refinery were repulsed during the
night.
The French blew up without re-
suit few mines in the neighborhood
of Troxoc, west of Craonne, and at
Certes in the Champagne, our bonn
bardment with hand srenades pre-
venting them from settling them
selves into the mined positions.
In the Argonnes German attack
resulted in complete success north
east Of Vienne-Le-Chateau. OuI
troops took by storm the enemy po-
sitions in the hills extending over a
width of three kilometres and depth
OF one kilonetre. Hill No. 2S5, La
File Morte, IS in our possession. Two
Thousand FIVE hundred and eighty
one uninjured prisoners, including 81
officers, fell into our hands. In addi.
ton 800 injured were taken into oul
care. Field cannon, two revolver
cannon, six machine guns Ind a large
quantity of tools were captured. Our
troops advanced as far as the posi-
ton of the French artillery and rem
dered eight cannon useless. There
are now standing between the French,
and German lines.

QUIET ON EASTERN FRONT;
FRENCH GAIN In THE WEST
Russians Await New Move by Their
Enemy-French Straighten
Their Trenches.

London, Wednesday,: For more
than a week now the Austro-German
offensive in Galicia and Poland has
been hanging fire while the Russians,
their centers having fallen back on
more advantageous line in the
heights north of Krasnik apparently
are waiting the next move of the
Teutonic forces.
Fresh ammunition and reinforce
ments may bring a sudden revival of
activity in the east, but the western
front, by reason Of the uncertainty
as to which side plans general Of
fepsive, now offers the greatest pos
sibilities Of interesting developments.
The French claim their front In
the Argonne, after being dented by a
violent attack made by the army Of
Crown Prince Frederick William, has
been restored, the net result being a
costly adventure for the Germans;
but the strength of the offensive at
that point, leads the British press to
speculate whether the Argonne or the
Woevre districts will not be selected
for a general German offensive.

NEGRO STAYS 3 WHITE MEN
WHO TRY TO ARREST HIN
Farmers Of Pulaski County, Georgia
Surround and Kill Barri-
caded Desperado.

Three white men are dead at Coch-
ran, Ga, in Pulaski county, and a
posse estimated to number several
hundred farmers, heavily armed,
Wednesday had surrounded the home
of Pete Jackson, a negro farm hand,
who is accused of the triple murder.
The negro barricaded himself in his
home and Tor some time succeeded in
holding Off the pisse.
A late dispatch from Cochran, Ga,

to death behind his barricade by the
posse.
The dead are W. S. Hogg, aged
forty, night marshal; Lynn Sanders,
forty, farm supervisor, and Oscar
Lawson, twenty-three, & farm hand.
Jackson, according to reports OF

done and the supervisor is said to
have struck the negro. Later, it is
alleged, Jackson. accostet' Sanders,
drew revolver and fired twice, one
bullet entering Sanders heart, kill
ing him almost instantly.

OFFER LAND TO ROUMANIA
Austria Makes Concessions in Effort
to Win Aid.

Germany and Austria-Hungary, ac-
cording to dispatches from the Bal
kan states, are using every diplo-
matte resource to induce Rouman1a
to join military forces with the cen
tral powers or at least to preserve an
attitude of permanent friendly neu-
trality. 1t is reported that the Aus
tro-Hungarian minister at Bucharest
has offered the Roumanian govern
ment liberal territorial compensation
for armed assistance, counterlng
Russia's offer of Trarsylvania with
that of Bessarabia.
Her reward for friendly neutrality
is said to be Bukowina as far as the
River Pruth. From Austrian sources
comes a report that Russia is giving
substantial proof of the possibility Of
Roumania accepting one Of these
Teutonic offers by building trenches
and entanglements along her Rou-
manian frontier. Bulgaria and Tur-
key are said to have reached dead
lock in their negotiations on account
of the refusal Of Sofa to do more
than preserve a friendly neutrality in
return for territorial compensatiols
from Constantinople.

BRITISH MINERS STRIKE
WITH COUNTRY AT WAR
Government Applies Munitions Of
War Act to Coal Mining In
duStry but Men Go Out.

Despite the action of the govern
ment in applying the munitions OF
war act to the coal mining industry
it is practically certain that large
number of men will stop work in
South Wales, thus curtailing the sup
ply of coal for the naval vessels. e.
The Federation Of Miners of the
United Kingdom, the labor leaders
and the general public upon whose
support the miners would depend to
make the strike a success are all urg-
ing them to continue work until an
agreement can be reached, but the
executive council of the South Wales
union by majority vote refused to
support this recommendation.
1t is not believed, however, that
the strike will last long, as the men
themselves are divided and the South
Wales union has not the funds to
finance a long struggle; the miners
federation, after its recommendation
is not likely to assist them. There
is also a possibility that the govern
ment will utilize the miners who en-
listed in the army and who have not
yet left the country to work the
mines.
This dispute which jeopardizes the
work of the navy, occupies the public
mind in England above all other mat
ters, and official reports of the fight
ing in the East and West take Sec
ond place.

FIFTY=MILE MOTOR BOATS
ARE TO ROUT SUBMARINES
Allies Plan for Thirty-Foot Craft to
Mount Guns and Outrun
Anything Built.

The C.. C. Smith Boat and Engine
Company, New York, announced
Thursday that it had been asked by
the British, French, and Russian gov
ernments to submit estimates for the
construction Of powerful motor speed
boats, of sufficient strength to per-
nit the mounting of two or more
light guns, the boats to be used, it is
understood, in running down German
submarines in the waters around
England and France AMI in the Bal
tic. The British government, it is
understood, wants fleet of at least
one hundred of these craft, while the
Russians, it is said, Want thirty or
forty. The number wanted by France
is not known.
The boat proposed is to be thirty
feet long and seven. feet beam; guar
anteed to make fifty miles an hour.
It will be easy to navigate and even
when travelling at great speed will be
able to turn sharply. The Smith
factory is in Canada, near Detroit, on
the St. Clair River, and so no pos
sible violation of American neutrali-
ty is involved.
The motive power of the boats will
be furnished by twin engines, each OF
two hundred and fifty horse power,
and the guns will be mounted one on
each side just forward of the driving
gear. Each boat can carry, if neces-
sary, fuel and supplies sufficient to
last several days, although it is con-
templated that this will not be need
ed as, owing to the speed Of the
boats; they can make port whenever
necessary. Furthermore, they car
be equipped with light wireless sets
Each boat will displace about four
tons.

RUSSIANS NOT DISTURBED
German Movements Cause no Flurr,
in Petrograd, Cars Capital.

London reported Friday that Pet
rograd apparently was not greatly
disturbed over the latest German
drive, claiming that much severe
frontal fighting must be done before
the Polish capital can be surrounded
by Hindenberg and Mackensen.
In southeastern Gaiicia the Aus
tro-German armies are advancing
across the Dniester under heavy
Russian artillery fire and fighting
again is becoming lively in the most
distant portion of the Russian front
in the Caucasus-where both the
Turks and the Russians claim sue
cesseS.
Paris reported Saturday that re-
iIforcemepts have been sent to the
German troops in the Russian prov
inces of Courland and kovno, with
the result that vigorous military op-
erations have been resumed in that
section. The Russians are offering a
stubborn resistance and are holding
strategic positions.

PROTEST SENT PRESIDENT
AGAINST BRITISH EMBARGO
Cotton Leaders at Columbia Will
Send Letter of Protest to
President Wilson.

The prospects for the South in the
coming crop year are recognized with
optimism, provided the United States
can clear up with satisfaction certain
differences of opinion between this
country and England over the en-
barge placed upon cotton being ship
ped through the neutral ports of Hol-
land and the Scandinavian countries
and, provided further, the proper
supper. is given by the regional re-
serve bank system in financing the
new crop.
This is the consensus of opinion
arrived at Saturday during an in
formal conference among some of the
leaders in the cotton movement who
gathered at Columbia.
Congressman A. F. Lever, who was
requested to act as chairman, was
designated with Commissioner E. j..
Watson and T. B. Stackhouse of Co.
lurnbia to prepare a letter to be pre-
sented to the president of the United
States, expressing strongly the atti-
tude of the people of the State.
Mr.. Lever, as chairman Of the COM
mittee on agriculture of the House of
Representatives, was requested to
get the cooperation of the leaders in
each Southern state, in order to make
a solid phalanx in presenting this
question. and to ask an audience with
the president.
It is understood that this matter is
to be made immediate and impera-
tive, and the sense of the meeting
was that public agitation and news
paper discussion might be suspended
pending the outcome of a hearing
in Washington.
Among those in the conference,
which was entirely informal, were:
Congressman Lever, chairman of the
committee on agriculture; Col. E. J.
Watson, president of the Southern
Cotton Congress; DR.. Wade Stack
house, of Dillon, president of the
State Cotton Congress-; Col. J. Arthur
Banks, senator from Calhoun and a
cotton planter; Col. R. NJ. Cooper, a
large cotton planter; ex-senator John
l.. McLaurin, State cotton warehouse
commissioner, who made a report on
conditions in Georgia also; T. B.
Stackhouse, manager or a number OF
cotton warehouses in the State. and
Walter B. Sullivan, publisher of the
Columbia Record, who led in the
"Buy-a-Bale' movement last year.

FRENCH POSITION SAFE
Military Expert Says Souchez Gene
terry is lot Important.

Loss of the Souchez cemetery and
adjacent trenches, indicated in the
French official statement, does moi
affect the principal French defenses
in that region. according to French
military writer's. It is warning
however, says Col. Rousset, in the
Peit Parisien that will not be neg
lected.
The Germans visibly are Tedoub-
ling their efforts to capture Verdun.
After the failure of their plans in
the forest of Argonne they are trying
by concentric attacks in the Woevre
district to obtain the most accessible
parts of the citadel by attempting to
establish batteries with the idea OF
reaching the city. The outer works,
however, in the opinion of the
French military officers, are solidly
guarded and are equipped with all
means for reply.
