People Should Be Held as Test
of Sentiment.

LONDON, Dec. l3.-According to the
lelegIdtt the government has abandoned
the proposed bill abrogating the rule I'M
der which it would be necessary for the

lclegrall accounts for the abandonment
on the ground that it is felt that peace
agitation is likely to arise in certain parts
OF the country in consequence Of the offer
OF the central power and that, therefore,
the government has decided that an cleo
tion should be held as test OF public
sentiment

Thanksgiving
From Cartoons Magazines


Probably in our remote rural districts
the spirit of Thanksgiving in it's orig
inal simplicity remains. Farmers are
closer to nature than we are in the city.
They have good reason to be thankful
if their crops are a success They are
like the New England fathers in that re-
epect, and while in these more prosper
Gus days of agriculture one expects
something more than a scanty living
from the soil, the farmer, we believe. Is
devoutiy grateful for the good things in
Hfe He is indebted really to the Maker
for the sunshine that has ripened his
harvest, and for the rains that have wa
tered it.
But city life is artificial. The battle is
not so much with the forces of nature,
but with men. We expect more than we
receive and feel injured when we do not
receive more. We are inclined to thank
ourselves for our successes, or to con-
slider ourselves lucky when good fortune
comes our way. Thanksgiving for us
is a day of feasting rather than of pray
err We dine at the cafe instead of
around the family board at home. There
il no blessing pronounced over the
turkey We have lost our faculty for
giving thanks
Lest we forget, We can at least make
someone less fortunate than ourselves
thankful, and in doing so may feel in
some measure the spirit of Thanksgiv-
ing

McCh0rd Wants Number
of Coal Cars in Use

Louisville, November 10.-Commis-
sioner c. c. McChord of the inter
state commerce commission today re-
quested that he be furnished as soon
as possible information regarding the
number of loaded coal cars held at
railroad junction points and on ter
Hina1 railways.
His request was addressed to repre
sentatives of railroads present at hear
lngs being held here in connection
with an investigation into the meth
eds of exchange and return Of cars
by the railroads of the country.
1t was made following the intro
cLction in evidence by F. 3. Dow. at
torney for the interstate commerce
commission, of price list sent out
by Chicago coal brokers. Attached to
the price list was note saying i'm
mediate deliveries were available from
stocks of coal held aboard cars at
junction points on the Pere Marquette,
Michigan Central and other railroads
Representatives of several railroads
were called upon during the day to
testify regarding car shortage condi-
tons upon their lines and to detail
the methods used to provide relief
Representatives of those lines touch
ing at ports of export were asked par
ticularly about the measures taken to
prevent the accumulation of loaded
cars at such points.
j. p. Stevens, general manager of
the Chesapeake and Ohio, testified in
this connection that the uncertainty
of shipping conditions had compli-
Gated this problem. Only recently, he
said, two ships destined for loading at
y
which had made necessary the holding
of a large quantity of grain aboard
cars until other bottoms could be Sc
cured. Other ships he said, arrive later
than expected, and this also forces the
holding of loaded cars, because of the
lack of storage ROOM
Commissioner McChord announced
today that in order to expedite the
hearings night sessions would be held.
The first was held tonight, at which
the testimony of railroad representa-
tiyeS was continued.

Columbia, S. c., November 10.-Governor
Manning tonight ordered five National
Guard coast artillery companies, under
Maj. w. F. Robertson of Greenville, to
proceed Immediately to Anderson, and li-
visions of naval militia be held subject to
CALL in order that magistrates constableS
might be protected in enforcing ejectment
writs against striking operatives of the
Equinox and Gluck cotton mills who oc-
cupy cottages on the mill premises and
are alleged to have resisted in arms the
magistrates process.
Recourse to the military was taken after
Sheriff Ashley the highest peace officer

according to my own judgment, and if
this don't suit you, you can send UP
here and do it yourself"
Governor Manning said that he had re-
sorted to the military only in the pres
ence of failure on the part of the
civil arm. The troops will reach Ander-
son tomorrow morning.
A strike has been in progress at the
Equinox and Gluck mills for about two
months The state board of Cancellation
and representatives of the federal bu-
reau of mediation and Cancellation have
several times endeavored to adjust the
controversy. The strike resulted from a
demand by the operatives for a 10 per
cent wage increase. This was refused
by the mill management

Large Flashlamp Trade

From the Electrical world.
Trade in fiashlamps has grown to q
tremendous total. increasing this year to
greater totals than ever before. Much
of this has been for foreign consumption
although there has been an extraordinary
demand from the domestic markets. A
was to supply the soldiers in the trenches
in Europe with lamps, and also for dis
tribution in the British Isles. The air.
raid defense acts curtailed the electric
lighting to such an extent that there
has developed fourishing demand in
England for fiashlamps
The sale of fiashlamps in this country
has been large for more than one rea-
son. 1t has now outgrown the novelty
stage and has taken it's place as COM
modify Almost every hardware shop,
electrical dealers store, dry goods store.
drug store and many others handle and
push fiashlamps.
Raw materials are hard to obtain and
for that reason production has been cur
tailed to some extent The cases are for
the most part made of brass with a
nickel finish, and these materials being
in the war order class are about the
most difficult of the raw products tc
obtain. Fiber is also used to a consid-
cradle extent for cases and this, too. Is
way behind on delivery.
With one or two exceptions producers
have not as yet raised their prices to the
domestic consumer in spite of the heavy
increase in cost of materials. 1t is their
aim to try to keep prices down by in
creasing the volume of output The 1916
output of batteries for fiashlamps has
been conservatively estimated at 10000
900, of which it is estimated 100, 900, 00d
will be taken by the domestic trade and
30. 900, 600 by the export trade.
