NEW YORK REGISTRATION
is BELOW PREDICTION

New York.-Oct. 16.-Although
the registration of 73S,710 voters in
New York City excecdad last years
record by 1880 the predictions of
political leaders were not fulfilled.
The complete regisGation figures
now available show gain of 33,424
over the registration for the last
presidential election in 1919 Politi-
clans have prophesied that total OF
750,0OO to 100000 would be attained
One reason given for the failure to
reach these figures IS the return to
Europe of many Of our foreign birth.
Republican leaders pointed out to-
day that there was large decrease
in the registration of some of the
strong democratic districts of Man
haitian, but the democratic chieftains
assered that this was more than COM
pensaed by democratic gains in
Brooklyn, Bronx and Queens bor-
oughs. Manhattan was the only bor-
ough to show decline from the re-
gistration of 1912.

'LANDRITH IS
THREATENED
Missile, Probably a Stone Hurl-
ed at Train. Broken Plate
Glass Showered Upon Can

Hanley Warmly Received by
Crowds in State of Which he
Was Formerly Governor.

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 16.-A mis-
sile, probably a stone, hurled by an
unidentified man, crashed against the
rear window of the dry special train
observation car, just outside Fort
Wayne, Ind, tonight showering bro
ken plate glass over Ira Landrith,
the prohibitionist vice-presidential
candidate, and other members of the
party, but injuring no one.
For time it was believed that the
train had been fired upon, but the
finding of a stone on the observa-
ton platform caused the shooting
theory to be virtually abandoned.
Earlier in the day at -Greensburg,
Ind, man had yelled from the
crowd that Landrith "ought to die. !"
At Fort Wayne, Landrith saw several
men peering at him through the win
dow of his compartment and one of
them said "there he is now" He was
undecided tonight whether to accept
the stone theory. j. Frank Hanley,
the presidential nominee, who was in
a drawing room of the observation
car when it was struck was convinc-
cd that only stone had beer hurled.
No other untoward incident mark,
cd the day. Hanly, speaking in the
state of which he was formerly a re-
publican governor, was warmly re-
teivcd. The crowds at Marion and
Huntington, where he spoke il court
house yards, were especially large
end enthusiastic. Fair crowds h. I'd
him in North Vernon, Greensburg,

came here for a night meeting.

COAL SHORTAGE (
is THREATENING
New York Dealers Declare
Bins are Depleted and Ship
ments Delayed.

New York, Oct. 16.-A shortage
of coal is in prospect for this city
this winter, according to the dealers
who declare their bins are being de-
pleted, their shipments delayed and
that the outlok for immediate or e.
ventual relief is poor. Failure to re
ceive the usual amount of coal is
attributed to a scarcity of labor at
the mines and lack of cars for trans
portation, the latter of which is said
to be most serious, due to the move
ment of war munitions and other
freight for export. The enormous
foreign trade is also blamed for the
shortage which, it is stated, exists in
other sections of the country as we'll
as here.
Prices to New York house
holders for stove and nut coal
vary from 81 to SITS. Dealers
declare that with seasonable
weather the price will reach So
before Thanksgiving and that
SO coal is not too high to expect
at Christmas. A cold winter will
send prices higher. W. Frank
Persons, director of the general
work of the charity organization
society, asserted in a statement
today that man who earned
$22.75 a week now has the same
purchasing power as a man who
earned SIT a week in 1911.

Hardships Come First.

Lucky" Baldwin was one of the
well-known characters on the Pacific
coast up to few years ago, when he
died. His case Is contradictory In a
way, as his luck" came only after
such struggles and hardshlps as few
men go through. AS prospector he
was near death many times and lived
in desperate poverty for the greater
part of his life. Then he made a strike
in prospecting which left him fabulous
Iy wealthy. His sobriquet of Lucky"
is a decided mlsnomer here, especially
as family troubles and litigation en-
bittered his last years.
In glanclng over the list of those
who control the largest fortunes in
this country, 1t is often impossible to
realize how 1t comes that men of such
varying qualities attain success.
Where does this success come from
anyway? Is 1t foresightness. is 1t
strength of character, force of person
ality?
Or Is 1t quality called luck?
The Elbert County tribune., 1916-09-01

The primary step in human better
ment has always been to secure a
| shorter workday. Those workers who
toiled ten or twelve or fourteen hours
became drudges, too tired to think, too
worn out to hope or dream dreams
with time only for the sleep necessary
for any animal. Each day they re-
turned to work unrested from the toll
of the previous day, the poison of
fatigue accommodating in the body until
the vigor of youth and manhood was
ruinously undermined.
To decrease the hours of work to a
reasonable standard assures to the
worker time for rest and recuperation
and additional time for development,
for study. for social pleasures, for the
things that make life worth while and
fill it with hope and opportunity.
Since this change has been brought
about in reducing the hours of work,
the short-hour workman becomes a
better workman, consequently, reduc-
tions in the hours of work are invari-
ably accompanied by increases in
wages.
Reduced Hours, Increased Efficiency.
1t has been the experience of en-
work to reasonable standard results
in increased efficiency of workers. The
data furnished by some who have kept
statistics showing the increased out
put resulting from reducing from u
ten to an eight-hour day is startling.
Some have found that efficiency in
creased in percentages varying from
30 to 60
Workers have called attention TO
harmful insanitary conditions prevail
ing in places of employment. By their
| demands, backed up by their economic
power, they have succeeded in bring
ing about great transformation. In
this they have had the cooperation
and assistance OF the many great
scientists, who have used their knOwl-
edge and their ability to promote the
interests of humanity. But whatever
has been accomplished to establish
principles of human welfare in indus-
| try and commerce has been due either
directly or indirectly to economic or
carnations OF workers
made more evident the soundness of
the principles which the trade union
lists have followed. AS the dynamic
forces in the lives of the people stand
out sharply in some test that cuts
through to bedrock fundamentals, the
strength ana the nature of economic
power IS revealed. Those who had
the understanding to interpret such
fiashlIght glimpses into the heart of
things ana who can sense the hidden
currents that are propeIling the for
ward surge OF life, know that those
who handle the tools and materials of
production. nave in their hands the
great powers of the common life. Gre
