Sheriff Predicts Trouble.
AL. Steen, county sheriff: THE
county Jail could not hold all the
people who would be arrested if a
strike were called. Even though there
would be no violent acts against the
railroads, there would be many arrests
because with a large number of men
idle trouble is sure to arise"
The railroad men in general believe
that the strike can be averted but in
case it is called it is believed that at
least ninety-per cent of them will
walk out.

ming than a greenhorn at a fake foot
race.

How will the eight hour day propo-
sition be settled?
This is the foremost question in the
minds Of Richmond people. The word
strike" is heard everywhere along
the streets and almost every CONVEX
sation leads into discussion Of what
President Wilson will be able to do.
The situation is OF special interest
because of the large number Of men
employed in the Pennsylvania yards
and on the railroads which run
through here. Then too, strike
would mean that several of the large
factories would have to shut down for
want of raw materials.
Put Faith in Wilson.
Democrats feel confident that Prest
dent Wilson will be able to bring
about peaceful settlement.
Postmaster Beck Wilson has kept
up out of war and he can prevent the
strike"
Mike Kelly, county clerk: THE ar
bitration of this serious situation will
be just one more plume in Wilson's
hat"
Walter. Lewis, county chairman:
Both sides can expect a square deal
when they leave it to Wilson"
Most other people agree with the
active Democrats in believing that
the question will be arbitrated.

E. M. Haas, secretary Of the Com

COTTON MARKET iS
 AGAIN ON UPGRADE
Prices Recover Half Cent of Re- cent Losses, With Close 32-60 Points Up-December Notices Estimate 20,000 Bales.

New York, Nov. 24-The prompt stopping of December notices and firmer Liverpool cables were followed by very rapid advance in the cotton market here today and prices recov- cred about half a cent on their recent losses. December contracts sold up from 1914 to 20.42 or 60 points above last nights closing figures and the general list closed firm at net ad- vances of 32 to 60 points.
 The opening was somewhat irregu- lar, owing to the circulation of the notices, which were estimated at about 10000 bales. December started at decline of s points under scattering liquidation, but other months were about ? to 6 points higher in response to relatively firm cables, and Decem- Der quickly firmed up on buying by spot houses. Indications that the mo- tices were being promptly stopped evidently made favorable impression on the sentiment.
 Later the buying was further stim- ulated by rumors that the people talk ing up notices both here and in New Orleans would probably ship the cot ton to Russia and the market became very firm during the afternoon. In addition to active covering by recent sellers there appeared to be fresh buy ing for long account, as well as re- buying by sold-out longs. January contracts sold up from 1893 at the opening to 20.53 in the late trading. while May advanced from 20.40 to 20.90. The close was within 4 to 5 points of the best.
 Cotton closed firm.

Lassetter were both honorcd by place on the program which came in recognition of the work being car ried on by the force in Arkansas. Ar kansas is said to have one of the most effective extension forces in the United States.
