Reports Received at 10
Today Give Wilson %
Electoral Votes Ahead of
Hughes, and Still Gaining.
Republicans Acknowledge
Democratic Victory.

Nearly complete returns from
the National election show that
the race for the presidency was
close, and up to 9o'clock this
morning nothing positive can be
given, though the returns point
to the election of Woodrow
Wilson. Returns were report
ed very slowly last night and
many states are still in doubt.
The Republicans claim Hughes
elected, but the Democrats do
not concede it to them. Most of
the states on the Pacific slope
have not been reported, and
Vance Mccormick, Democratic
chairman, says indications are
that these will go to Wilson, and
that there is still a good chance
that he has been elected. The
big New York papers announc.
ed the election of Hughes last
night about 9 o'clock.
The Republicans claim
majority in both houses of con-
gress, but this claim is also dis
puted by the Democrats.
North Carolina defeated her
one Republican congressman,
and will send up a solid Demo
cratic delegation.
The Solid South" piled up
the usual big Democratic ma
jority.
Utah, strong Republican,
went for Wilson in this election.
| Massachusetts; Missouri, ffffrnois-
and number of other states are
doubtful.
Below is given the electoral
vote OF the states as reported up
to the hour Of going to press.
1t will be seen that Wilson still
has a chance. There are 531
electoral votes, and 266 are
necessary to elect.

Wilson Apparently Elected
by Safe Majority
What 1t Means to Win

Winning a prize at county
fair, even though ii be only
the prize at the bottom of the
list, gives one a new pride in his
work. He goes home feeling
that life is worth living and
work is worth doing. If it does
not give one too much of
swelled head, it is a good thing
for him to know that he excels
someone in something. 1t en-
courages him in his work, for he
knows then that he is on the
right track. 1t shows him in
which branch of his business he
is being the most successful, and
therefore, which one it will pay
him best to develop as his
speCi ;lty.
The winning of a blue ribbon
makes a man brother to kings;
it fills him with an exaltation
which is good for his soul, 1t sets
for him a new standard in life.
If he is made of the right stuff
he tries to live up to that blue
ribbon in all things, he tries to
make all his products as high
quality for their kinds as was for
its kind that which won the blue
ribbon. Soon or late that spirit
of better quality permeates his
entire being and he becomes a
bigger and better man for hav-
ing won that little strip of ribbon.
He realizes that his competi
tors who lost the honor to him
are going to strive all the harder
10 win ii from him next year.
Therefore, he strives just as
hard next year to excel his own
accomplishment of the year be-
fore so that he may again win
the honor of the blue ribbon
rather than letting his competi-
tors take it from him. And
thereby the winning of that
prize has raised his own stand
ards of excellence and thus has
benefited his busineSs.-The

Passengers arriving tonight

against a surprise attack. No

Gold Scattered Over the Streets
of jefferson

of jefferson
Mr.. L. E. Gardner in writing
to the Jeffersonian gives the fol-
lowing interesting account of
gold mining projects near Jefier-
son:
This gold mine was discover
ed bv Burwell Brewer, nearly
one hundred years ago. Mr..
Brewer, and his assistants gotI
their gold by using log rockers
and sluice boxes, but in later
years a northern company got
in possession Of the mine and
made their gold bv the hydraul
ic process. They were very
successful, SO much so, that they
decided to work the mine on
larger scale. In 1889 the com
pany built 40 stamp mill down
to the foot of the hill, on Fork
Creek and opened a quarry on
top of the hill and blasted out
the ore and it was conveyed to
the mill on a train of cars
through tunnel 1900 feet long.
The stamp mill was put in op-
Grafton April 1890. The output
of gold for the first month, was
Is lbs. The mill didn't run
many years before the hard
pounded ore and poisonous gas
es and chemicals used at the mill
began to damage farm lands
along the creek below the mine.
The landowners sued the com
pany for damages and the mill
was shut down. The mine has
not been worked since except on
a small scale. The Northern
company sUld the mine tract to
MIR. Bill U. Clyburn, of Kershaw
a few years ago. Mr.. Clyburn
is the present owner. He has
considerable farming done on the
place, but no gold mining. %
| l believe this is one of thu,
richest gold mines in South Car
olina. All that is needed is mon
ey, necessary machinery, and
plenty of will power to make the
|Clyhurn mine paying PROPOSE
ton.
i | am not an expert at gold
mining, but I've been a proSpec-
tor for several years. | use a pan
and pick for my outfit and find
some gold on every tract of land
in this neighborhood. In refer
ence to last weeks issue Of the
Jeffersonian, see that my name
is mentioned as successful
proSpector in John Miller's gold
mine. Now | wish to make some
explanation. 1t is a fact that a
darkey named John Miller, does
own several lots near the foot Of
Brewer mine hill, and | have
panned lot of dirt from an old
road, crossing his land and the
gold shows up good I've tried

II will pay to work the place.
There are several places near
Jefferson, that IS rich in gold
deposits. and should be worked.
| can find small particles of
gold on the main street of Jeffer-
son. Why should we ever COM

have gold under us and in our

hill top, and for all we've got it
we will need plenty of elbow

Nation Dying of Hunger

relief TO Europe and Turkey,
two hundred thousand women
and children in Albania have
died of starvation.
While each woman and child
in Belgium has had plenty to
eat, women and children III Al
bania have gnawed at the car
casses of dead horses in the
streets.
William Willard Howard, of
New York, who has returned
from his third trip to this hunger
zone of Europe, predicts that the
entire population of Albania will
die of famine and pestilence un-
less helped. He says that in
Albania corn is fifty dollars
bushel, flour eighty dollars a
sack, and macaroni five dollars
pound.
THE tragedy of Albania"
says Mr.. Howard, "is that a ma
ton is dying of hunger, while
the people of the United States.
laden with gifts for the rest of
Europe and for Turkey, pass by
on the other side.
Thirty millions of dollars
have been given by the people
of the United States for relief
work of various kinds in Bel
gium, Poland, Armenia, Syria
and the warning countries of
Europe, while two hundred
thousand women and children
in Southeastern, Europe have
starved to death unheeded and
uncared for. Not one woman
or child has died of hunger in
Belgium; two hundred thousand
in Albania.

the innocent women and chill
dren OF Albania. who never did
anyone any harm, should be
trampled under foot and left to
perish, at time when all others
are fed?
rs this American fair play?
Il have appealed for help IN
high places. l have begged
crust Of bread of those who have
given millions to Belgium, Po-
land, Armenia and Syria.
The Albanians are as much
entitled TO sympathy and help as
others. They have not taken
part in the war. They fed and
sheltered the refugees from Ser
via, even with the last measure
OF corn that the famine smitten
villages possessed. They have
not done any wrong; yet armies
have swept over their country,
taking what could be found to
take, leaving to starving women
and children only the carcasses
of dead horses in the streets.
Il ask only American fair play
for the famished children of Al
bania. ask CT all fair minded
men and women in the United
States: Why should the Alba
nians-three hundred thousand
of whom are Christians-be left
to starve, while we press for

RAILWAY LABOR
UNITES in FIGHT
[Continued From First Pasel

ElTSt
ANA algamated with the brotherhoods
there are 100000 men. The brother
hoods have a membership of 100000,
and the union brings the American
Federation OF Labor into the plans of
the brotherhoods. Heretofore the
brotherhoods had no connection with
the federation. but as the railroad or
ganizations amalgamated with the
brotherhoods are members of the
American Federation of Labor, the in
fiuence of the latter organization will
oe felt in any labor move by the rail-
road men in the future.
This will mean that 100000 organ
lied laboring men will be working for
the same thing, and, conversely, that
the railroad men may go on strike
out of sympathy for other laboring
men.
Railroad managers and legislators
profess to see in the combined fight of
this country may witness to force
Congress to bend to the will of the
workers.
United to Oppose Arbitration
The combination, it was announced,
will carry out the policy of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor and oppose
the effort of President Wilson and
the settlement of strikes by arbi-
tration.
While the amalgamation proposes
on it's surface to work for an eight
hour day for all railroad employees.
shopmen and yardmen, and all those
represented in the labor organizations
connected with railroad management.
legislators foresee a combination to
combat pending bills.
That the combination should be
effected in Washington, in advance of
the session of the joint congressional
committee, and when the country is
agitated over the legislation that Con-
gress will consider to end strikes, ap-
pears to many to have been conceived
not so much for a fight for an eight
hour day for all employees as a club
against congressional action on bills
that are intended to end strikes.
Railroad managers and representa-
tives of the brotherhoods. who forced
the enactment of the Adamson law.
are to attend to-day the sessions of
the Joint committee to consider rail-
way regulation and other features of
President Wilson's delayed program
announced last September in connec-
ton with the wage law.
While there has been q rumor that
the brotherhoods would seek an inter-
view with the President this week and
strike if the courts declared unconsti-
tutional the Adamson act. it was an
nounced at the White House that no
such conference had been requested.
1t was declared in official circles that
President Wilson would not grant the
brotherhood representatives an inter
view on such a subject, but, of course,
would not refuse to see them to talk
over law matters.
Senator Underwood. of Alabama, is
here prepared to urge more strongly
than ever the idea that the wages of
the railroad employees of the country
should be fixed by the Interstate Com
merce Commission. just as the affairs
Of the railroads are regulated by that
body. He is in Washington for the
railroad inquiry by the joint congress
sional committee. of which he is a
member.
Senator Underwood supported such
a plan last session. Now, with the
