country are experiencing right now
great inconvenience in business circles,
misery in general, and much suffering

Effective on Monday of this week, by
request of our mayor. business estab-
lishments hold off opening until a. m.
and close at 5 p. m Street lighting
is cut out and all our citizens are we
believe complying with the request to
be sparing in the use Of coal. While
there's no soft coal in the market,
some hard may be had, only, however,
according to fuel commissioner in
structions. To add misery to misery,
since Monday our city has had only one
half the train service it has been ac-
customed to for years.
AT this writing the only brightness
in connection with wretched condition
is the announcement on Tuesday that
troubles at the mines have been ironed
out and that by Friday work will be
going on at full capacity
We favor turning the coal business
over to Santa Claus.
