THE NEXT LIBERTY LOAN.
Chicago Tribune.

Chicago Tribune.
The government has just foated a
81 1000, 100000 loan 1t was cve7su5-
scribed by more than S1.000,000, 900,
and therefore may be considered a
successful venture But it required
an extraordinary publicity campaign
and substantial support from the
banks to make it successful.
The necessity for these efforts sug-
gests that a different program should
be laid out for the next S2,000,000, 900
or O00,00O,00O loan German editors
may exhaust the supply of ink in try

loan was not popular success, but
they cannot alter the essential fact
that the United States can successfully
float bond issues with almost no lin

adopted.
When it comes time to appeal for
more funds the government will do

fered Prof. r. A. Seligman Of Har-
ward at a recent meeting of the Wes-

Prof Seligman believes that the in

low and that the bonds should not be
made tax exempt The two things are
interrelated. The low rate failed 10

the exemption from taxes caused the
rich to hesitate for fear of being call

that the exemption involves serious
social dangers.
Another important criticism made
by Prof. Seligman was that congress

COAST ARTILLERY
In SERVICE SOON
Five Companies of South Carolina VIII
Be Called OHt N Ten Days
From the 5th Instant.

Charleston, July 5.-The five COM
panies of coast artillery National
Guard in Sop.l Carolina, commanded
by Major William F. Robertson, OF
Greenville. will be called into federal
service in about ten days. They Will
b, the Third division of this States
ional Guard to be called as the
FIRST regiment was mooolized early
in April. and some o. the engineer
inc companies have been modified
since that time.
While the War Department has not
made a definite announcement as to
the plans for the coast artillery al
ter it is drafted, the chances are that
the companies will not be sent to the
same concentration camps as other
arms of the guard. liter they are
assembled, the companies will be held
in their armories for about two
weeks, according to an announcement
recently by the War Department.
After the expiration of the two
weeks period it is probable that the
volunteer coast artillerymen will be
sent to the various coast artillery
posts on the seacoasts of the country.
While all of the companies have been
trained as infantry, as we'll as artll-
-ery being sent abroad as heavy mo
bile artillery has been discussed Dy
army experts from time to time.
However, inasmuch as the regular es-
Establishment of coast artillery has re-
Gently been largely increased, and as
its officers and enlisted personnel are
more highly trained than the guard
units. it is more than likely that any
heavy artillery composed OF coast ar
tillerv companies will be taken from
the regulars.
If it is decided to send regular
coast artillerymen to France, the
places left vacant in this country's
coast defenses by the transfer OF the
units for foreign service can be NIL

in the near future, and the National
Guard COMPANIES can be brought to
state of efficiency in comparatively
brief time.
The probability of coast artillery
men being used to man heavy mobile
artillery batteries in Europe has been
much discussed, because in their reg
ular training at coast Notifications,
the officers and men become proficient
in handling guns from the three-lnch
TO the fourteen-inch, and their work
along these lines fits them for peavy
artillery better even than the regular
training of field artillerymen.
In South Carolina, there are nVe
Companies of National Guard coast
artillery being located at Greenville,
Spartanburg, Gaffney, Greenwood and
Jonesville, respectively.
In various Southern States recent
1y army officials have sought to en-
courage the formation Of units Of Ma

CUSTOMERS.

Customers, accent on the cuss. are
people who want to see everything
but buy nothing. They are found IN
all parts of the civilized world where
merchants operate stores. They are
as tickle as the winds and as trans
lent as summers day. A customer,
for instance, walks into a drug store
and sauntering over to the soda foun-
tain, inquiries. "Got any buttermllk
today?" yep "Ill take a Chero-
Cola" There's no more use for that
extra inquiry than there is for man
to try to sell pet pole cats, but it's
just their nature. If a customer gets
bargain in store he tells everybody
except the store-keeper One store
i keeper has said that it should be GUS
&tomary for customers to accustom
themselves to general cussedness.

HYDE HAS MANNING TO
TRANSFER CHIEF DUNCAN?
Head of State Constabulary Gave Out
Interesting Statement in Regard to
Chief Black Some Time Ago to
Charleston American.
Charleston American.

Charleston American.
Chief State Constable S. NJ. Duncan
Who has been in charge Of the cOnsta
bulary in Charleston for the past Is
months, was yesterday ordered to sur
render his Office to Sheriff Martin.
Mr.. DUrcans order, it was reported,
came from Governor Manning and he
is only being removed from Charles
ton. He is to be sent 10 some other
.art OF the state, it was stated.
1t is generally believed, however,
that Chief Duncan is being removed
at the request of Mayor Hyde, be-
cause of several statements that Chief
Duncan gave The Charleston Ameri-
can and were published. These state
ments attacked Chief OF Police Black,
who Chief Duncan alleged had inter
fered with his work. While Chief
Duncan and his men were state con-
stables and armed with the right to
work in any part of the state by an
order OF Governor Manning, they had
been instructed not to make raids
in the city, as the police department
would handle the enforcement Of pro-
hibition laws in the city limits.
It was rumored on the streets yes
terday that J. L. Poppenheim, mem
Der of the constabulary, is acting
chief: that the force is under the
Instructions of Sheriff Martin, to whom
Chief Duncan has turned over the
Office. automobile and paraphernalia
Of the force.
Chief Duncan refused to discuss the
report that he had been ordered re
moved from Charleston. He also re-
fused to deny it. He stated, however
that he expected to go to Columbia
Sunday and will be back next week.
AS head of the staff Chief Duncan
has earned a reputation for his hon
esty and fairness. He was known as
the blind tigers enemy. His enforce
ment of the law made him an enemy
but the fact that he played no favor
ties and was always known as hon
est and square as they make 'em.
held the respect of those engaged IN
the whiskey business.
As chief of the constables IN
Charleston he made success of it
and was On the job day and night. He
was we'll liked by the members Of his
staff and also by hundreds Of people
who came to know him in the Is
months that he was chief here.
Chief Duncan assumed charge OF his
Office December 9, 1915. and probably
has made one OF the best records OF
any other chief of the Charleston
squad in a similar length of time. His
records show that he had seized $780,
900 worth Of contraband and not a
drop of it seized in the city, at the
request of the governor. He also
seized automobiles, trunks and other
equipment.
His record for 1916 shows that ne
seized S13,429.25 worth Of intoxicants
and since the first of the year he has
confscated contraband valued at. So
1925. He also has on hand a guam
tity of booze yet to be poured into
the sewer. It is being held as eyl-
dence in cases. In connection with
his brilliant record as an officer to en-
force the prohibition law it might be
stated that he also has figured per-
sonally in the large raids in various
parts of his district.
Chief Duncan was formerly chief
of police of Newberry, his home.

The Lambertville Merchants As

the trolley mail service between
Lambertville and New Hope, at its
Monday evening meeting, character
ling it as unsatisfactory, and ask
ing the restoration of the messenger
service in effect for more than sixty
five years up to February LIST. The
secretary was directed to forward a
copy of the resolutions to the postal
authorities at Washington. There is
so much complaint locally about the
service since the trolley company
has been carrying the mail, that it
was the unanimous verdict of the
meeting that a change should be
urged.
Secretary Theodore G. Kitchin
was authorized to attend the York
road meeting at the home of Ezra

Thursday afternoon, when the ques-
ton of urging it's adoption as a mil

WAR ON ANIMALS.

During the last fiscal year hunters
in the employ of the biological sur
vey of the department of agriculture
have shot, trapped and poisoned
over II, 900 coyotes, following depre-
dations of these and other animals
accompanied by outbreaks of rabies
among them in parts of Oregon,
California, Nevada, Idaho and Utah.
Altogether over $4,000 noxious ami
mails, including wolves, coyotes,
mountain lions and bobcats were de-
stroyed. The seriousness of the out
breaks of rabies will be realized when
it is stated that more than 60 per-
sons were treated by state authori-
ties of Nevada during the year on
account of having been bitten by
either wild or domestic animals. The
loss of live stock has been very heavy.
At Winnemucca, New, a single rabid
coyote caused the loss of 21 steers.

KNOW ONE WAY TO GET MEAT

Beef Cause No Concern to !.
the Residents.

The residents of Greenwich, R. l.,

regarding the high price of meats at
this time, says the New York Her.
aid. Deer steaks are plentiful enough
and so far as any alleged beef COM
bination is concerned there is not the
slightest resentment.
The deer slip over into that section
as result of the free shooting laws
of Connecticut. In Rhode Island
they are protected; but many an old
stag or young buck has learned of
late that the laws of Connecticut are
no more unfortunate than the appe-
titles of Rhode Island. The supply OIL
meat is plentiful, as has been I'D
befe~~
Anyone familiar with the HABITS
OF deer knows that they like no food
better than the twigs of young apple
and peach trees. Well, Greenwich is
the place where they can get them,
for the farmers have been doing
nothing but plant and shoot for five
weeks. The game wardens are pres
emit, but there is a supply of deer
meat in the section already which
makes the work of game warden
almost needless. No one cares for
any more meat no one cares for the
price Of it. The meat situation has
been settled once and for all by those
who know just how to settle it.
