Having spent most of my life on
the frontiers and seen the great west
develop, my sympathy is always With
the prospector and promoter. They
have been and now are the forerun-
ners of prosperity and represent a
distinct type of verile Americanism.
Had it not been for such men to stir
enthusiasm and fire the ambition of
the average man to bigger enter
prises the west would not yet have
awakened. Every oil promoter who
has had the nerve to cast his lot with
us should have been given a medal

Get An Extra Wink Of
An Hour This Morning =?

SLOW time" is the standard time
for Americus today. In conformity
with the railroads, the clock in the
court house tower was to have been
turned back an hour early this morn
ing by S. A. Daniels, it's custodian,
establishing the standard for the
community.
Ministers of all of the churches
IN the city arranged for their serv-
ices today on the new schedule, some
OF them moving some of their hours
OF service forward. Friday the
change of time was announced by the
teachers in all of the classes in the
city schools, pupils being told to re-
port at the usual hour by the new
schedule Monday morning.
Reports received here indicate
that numerous other sections of
Georgia in the Central time zone will
make the change, disregarding tbt
harnes law forbidding it.

After discussion lasting more
than two hours the cabinet adjourned
at 20 to meet again at d:30 o'clock.
One phase of the situation most
officials Lad in mind was that Of cost
Of coal to the public during the
threatened strike. 1t was said that
fair price committees working with
Attorney General Palmer to reduce
the cost of living probably would add
cost of the commodities on which they
have issued fair prices. Officials said
the department of justice would not
undertake to set a national price for
coal, because of the differences be-
tween mining costs and freight rates,
but that the question would be han
died locally.
Just before the cabinet met John
L. Lewis. president of the United
Mine Workers of America, sent word
to unions throughout the country that
work in the mines would step next
Friday night. Lewis said the strike
would last until the government is
able to induce the stubborn coal op-
orators to deal humanely with the
men who mine the coal"
"And one mans guess is as good as
another's on that" he added
Before leaving for home, members
of the miners full scale committee
said they realized now that public
sentiment was largely against the
miners, but contended there would
be quick change with the "frst evil
dence of proiteering."
The last government effort to
avert the coal strike set for Novem-
Der ! failed u5teliy Friday night and
10000 miners will quit work on
the very eve Of winter, with the ma
tion's bins running dangerously low.
Even an appeal from President Will
son, sick in bed at the White House,
was not enough to bring peace to a
conference.

GREAT INDUSTRIAL BATTLE
BELIEVED IN MAKING.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-What
may prove to be one of the greatest
industrial battles in history was be-
ieved by some observers here to be
forecast by Samuel Gompers, presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor, that a conference of the heads
of 112 international unions affiliated
with the A. F. of L. would be held
in Washington in the near future to
discuss present and impending dis
putes.
Cooperation between the railroad
brotherhood and the farmers of the
country as we'll as the labor organ
iatins of Canada probably would be
sought, it was said, in furthering
what the union chiefs decide upon.
Mr.. Gompers, in withdrawing la
boris representatives from the Inter
national Conference warned the en-
ployees that when they met again
with the spokesmen for union labor
they would be glad to talk collective
bargaining.
With the recommendation tc Pres
ident Wilson that he create a COM
mission to carry on the work which
the National Industrial Conference
was unable to accomplish, the public
group, the last remaining element
of the body, adjourned Friday night.

Col. Lane Called to

But Sticks to Law

Col. w. T. Lane, we'll known at
torney and city counsellor, has re-
received a call to the pastorate of
a Georgia church, he let it be
known yesterday, as a result Of
unexpe cted publicity he has re-
ceived about the South following
his talk at the Rehoboth Baptist
church west of the city couple of
weeks ago.
At that time it was said in a
Joking manner that Colonel Lane
would preach his first sermon on
the occasion. The people of this
community, of course, knew that
he was only to make talk, but the
story got out and was printed gen
orally that he had given up the
practice of law and gone into the
ministry professionally.
"And now l am getting letters
from my friends from all over the
state wanting to know about it,"
said Colonel Lane yesterday. To
all inquirers Colonel Lane is max
ing insistent denial that he has
deserted the law for the ministry.

sages and the congregation and the
public are looking forward to the
messages today with keen interest.
The revival has resulted in great
good, many having been converted
and having pledged themselves to
better life. The services today will
no doubt witness many more turning
from sin unto Salvation.
Those who have heard Rev. Mr..
Dunaway have become convinced of
his earnestness and conservation.

has made more abiding friends than
has he, and it is great pleasure to
them to know that Rev. Mr.. Duna-
