WILL THE FARMER BE READY?

Covering time back to the most
primitive days of agriculture in this
country, even the days of our fore
fathers, when the soil had to be pre-
pared with most crude tools. and more
time given to fighting and guarding
against the murderous raids of the
Redskins than to growing crops, the
habit was formed of putting all pos
sible of the work of the present day
off for the morrow, and this habit
has been handed down TO posterity,

RETURN TRAVEL
NOW VERY HEAVY
that Return Travel Above Elk
pectations.

Passenger officials of the local rail
over the different lines entering Mar
tinsburg was like the holiday STAN
Dede-the heaviest in years. How
ever, the roads were not taxed with
the return travel as they were with
the beginning of the heavy holiday
traffic, as it was more gradual and
did not come in rush. Before Christ
mas holiday the outgoing and incom
ing trains were packed to capacity
despite the fact that much extra e.
quipment was attached to every train.
Many Of the people who took trips
during the holidays returned during
the week this year owing to the fact
that the industrial conditions are bet
ter and many were forced to return to
work before the New Year In this
connection the return traffic Monday,
while heavy, was not a rush, and it
was handled with more ease by the
carriers.
While figures OF the holiday travel
have not as yet been complied. it is in
timated by local passenger obserya-
tons the traffic during the holidays
this season has been the largest in
years and probably the largest in the
history Of the road in this city

SOLICITOR GENERAL HAS GOOD
CHANGE FOR THE HONOR, 1T
Is BELIEVED.
SECRETARY LANE AND FREDER-
lex w. LEHMAN ARE ALSO
PROMINENTLY MENTIONED.
FUNERAL OF LATE SUPREME
COURT JUSTICE HELD TODAY :.
IN AUGUSTA, GA.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4-Three
men have doomed up prominently for
appointment to the vacancy on the
Supreme Court of the United States
caused by the death Sunday night of
Justice Joseph r.. Lamar, OF Georgia.
They are Secretary of The Interior
Franklin X. Lane Solicitor General
of the United States; John w. Da-
Wis, of West Virginia, and Frederick
". Lehman, of st. Louis, former
Solicitor-General. The names of for
mer Gov. Andrew Jackson Monta-
que, of Virginia, now a member of
Congress from the Richmond district,
and William l.. Marbury, of Balti
more, also were mentioned.
President Wilson has given no hint
as upon whom his choice will fall
He will not do so until after the
funeral of Justice Lamar Washing
ton officials, however have begun an
active discussion of the men the
President would likely consider. The
name of Secretary of War Garrison
frequently has been mentioned, but
1t is declared later that the Presi-
dent desired to keep Mr.. Garrison
in his Cabinet, as he leans strongly
upon the Secretary's advice in many
important government matters.
Davis Believed In Lead.
There are no indications that the
President will pick former President
Taft for the bench. Judge Taft's
name was mentioned at the time
members of the House Judiciary Com
mittee were asked to report a bill
retiring Justice Lamar on full pay
on account of his health 1t is said
that Judge Taft is not likely to be
considered
Geographically speaking, the va
cant birth Oh the Supreme Bench
belongs to the South, and this Gre
ates the impression that. Solicitor
General Davis has a good chance for
the honor. 1t is known that Presi-
dent Wilson has high regard for
Solicitor-General Davis legal attain
ments. He is regarded as one of the
ablest So1icitor-Generals since Solicit
tor-General Maxwell of the first Clev.
land administration.
The fact that the Pacific Coast has
member of the court in Justice Nc
Kenna is used as an argument
against the appointment of Secretary
of Interior Lane. 1t is not believed,
however, that when the President
comes to the point of picking he n KIT
Justice he will be guided bv geograph-
ical lines.
