The we'll known delay, or lag In

the appearance OF the magnetic storm
and accompanying aurora, on the
earth, OF about forty-fire- hours, Is
due,to the time taken for the hydro

TO US of the South there is some
thing especially stimulating to our
local pride in the fact that The strike
has not spread in this section. There
must be something in the climate. OF
in the temperament Of The people
that makes them unconecnial TO asi-
tators who seek to sur up hostalty

Perhaps there is something. TOO. IN
tn fact that there is more Of the per-
sohdl clement IN the relationships OF
that kind than there IS in the North
and West.
The voting of tho striking men
themselves to return to work at >ev-
eral points is an omen that the worst
Of tho strike is over. After all, that
would be a mannor of ending this IN
fortunate episode more to tho liking
Of the public than any. The friends

There is one figure in the Nations
Capital that has now become nation
ally known as the real foe of the
Reds" "Profteers," Beef Trust"
Steel Trust" and the Goal Barons."
This figure is Mitchell Palmer,
democratic candidate for the presi-
tential nomination. Political OBJ
servers in Washington say that these
are going to be Pafmer's five stepping
stones to the Presidency. Just
whether the title Of foe" to these
i've different steps in progressive and
militant democracy will be instru-
mental in his nomination remains to
be seen, but he and his friends intend
% make a determined fight for the
honor of leading the democratic
hosts to another national victory at
the polls next November.
Achievements in the adninistra-
tlon of the Offices held by him-Alien
Property Custodian, the Attorney
G~eneralship and key mar on the
Ways and Means Committee back in
i9l3-will show that he is the best
qualified man to follow President
Wilson IN the White-House, accord
ing to those in touch with the politi-
al situation in this country.
Briefly, Palmer came to Congress
IL years ago from the Goth District
n Pennsylvania. Notwithstanding
The fact that he represented one of the
rargest steel producing districts in
The country. he was selected to write
