Wages Being Lowered.

The papers report numerous in
stances of reduction of wages of EN-
ployees of cotton mills. AS much as
it is to be regretted, such action was
inevitable. When raw material and
the manufactured product decline,
labor, very considerable item in
the cost of manufacture, must like
wise decline. It is hoped, however,
that wages will never be as low as
at one time in the past. Every labor
er is worthy of his hire, and that hire
should be sufficient to provide a COM
Portable living, plus reasonable
amount of luxuries and pleasures.
No class of people should be forced
by economic conditions to merely else
out AN existence.
While it has made the cost of
: ready-to-wear garments higher in
price, yet every unselfish person re-
5oices that the old "sweat shops" Of
the eongested cities are things of the
past Along with the decline of scores
of other things, reduction of wages
was expected but let US hope that
conditions will not make too great
reduction necessary.

.@-Saluda Standard Changes Hands.
We reluctantly bid adieu to Mr..
Grady Hazel who founded the Saluda
Standard number of years ago and
who has made it such a creditable
newspaper. He has sold the paper to
Mr.. Ira Armfeld and his brother
and passes from the field of journal
ism into more profitable fields of ac-
tivity. Mr.. Hazel has been a credit
and an honor to journalism and has
through his paper been strong fac
TOE in building UP the town of Salu-
da. But.,we. trust that he will not
leave Saldds.
1T gives us pleasure to say that
The Standard is still in good and
capable hands. AS editor MIR. Ira
Armfield will labor increasingly for
The further growth of Saluda and for
the common good of the county. Be-
sides being we'll qualified as editor,
being a graduate of the Citadel, Mr..
armfeld, like his brother who is as.
sociated with him, is practical
newspaper man, which in times OF
Great stress and strain, like the press
emit, counts for much in making
newspaper. The new owners OF The
Standard have located in. one of the
best newspaper fields in the State,
4here being but one paper in the
county. and we feel confident that
4bey will make good by measuring
mn to the highest expectation of the
clientele. The Advertiser wishes them
a full measure of success. They rich
.ly deserve it.

COURT IMPOSES
 FINE ON BLOCK
Newsdealcr Pays $25 for Part in Fracas Following
 Prize Fight

A. F. Block, proprietor of a cigar stand in the Grand theatre building on Brewery Gulch, was found guilty of disturbing the peace yesterday in
 police court and was fined $25. The charge arose over a disturbance in
 front of the theatre Saturday night after the prize fights. during which
 Block broke a bottle over the head of F. c. Rarick.
 The case had been twice postponed on the piea of the defense that it wanted time to find witnesses. When
 the case was called yesterday S. K. Williams. attorney for the defense. announced that he was unable to find any witnesses and was ready to pro- ceed with the case. Block took the stand in his own defense and testi- fled that Rarick had struck him first. All the other witnesses testified that Block struck the first blow with the
 bottle.
 In finding the defendant guilty Judge Hogan warned him to be more careful in the future in his treatment of small boys that he employs to sell soda-water in the theatre. The
 charge of disturbing the peace against
 Rarick was dismissed by th< court
 with the announcement, "The court believes that you were justified in doing what you did and orders the case against you dismissed. Judg-
 ment is your case is governed by the evidence in the other case" Evi- dence previously brought out showed ! that RaIick had interfered on the be- half of a small boy in Blocks employ when Block took money away from
 him that the boy declared to be his own. Counsel for the defense declared intention of appealing the case.

BRITAIN WANTS PAY FOR DELAY
 OF RIG LINERS
Opens Demu1Tage Question of Vessels Taken from
 the Germans
. lfseociatcd P,ess Eensed n,i,eI

ffSc0oidfcd Press LcGsed Wre) WASHINGTON, Aug. 24 - Great Britain has initiated diplomatic con versations with the American govern lr1ent as to the liability or the United States for expenditures necessitated by the detention in American ports of the seven former German liners allo- icated 10 this country for the home ward movyme of American troops The ships were held up by the ship ping board after their surrender by the war department but finally were delivered to England.
 While the ships were detained here British crews sent to America to take them over were idle in New York A question of demurrage charges also is understood to be involved.
 No specific claim for reimburse ment has been presented, it is under stood, the negotiations having been started to rea1ch an amicable agree ment as to where the responsibility for the delay rests. The ultimate ownership of the vessels, which in- clude the Imperator. now operated by the Cunard line, also is understood to have been made part of the discus sion. Great Britain claims title to the ships under the decision of the al lied shipping commission on which the United States was not represent ed and the rulings of which never have been accepted by the Washing ton government. The shipping board has claimed that allocation of the ships to the United States was per manent and it was on this ground that it refused for some time to deliver the vessels to Great Britain. The question was finally referred to Pres ident Wilson and the vessels were or dered to the British pending a final decision.
