GREAT SAVING IN PHOSPHATE.

The United States owns the rich
est and most extensive phosphate
fields in the world. Heretofore
heavy annual wastes of valuable
phosphate material have occurred
during the mining and manufacture
ing processes. a new method of
controlling these losses devised by
the United States Department of
Agriculture consists in mixing the
"run-of-minc' phosphate with sand
and coke and smelling the mass in
an electric or fucl-fcd furnace. In
This process, the phosphoric acid is
driven Off as fumc and may be
readily collected in concentrated
form Millions Of tons Of Dh0S-
pilates previously wasted will be
saved potcnlically as q result OF the
perfection Of This new reclamation

UNEMPLOYMENT MEETING.

The Convention to consider The
unemployment Situation in the
rou.ry met in Washington last Mon
day and organized into committees
and adjourned until Wednesday,
October the 9TH, when it is to re-
assemble and hear the reports of
the committees, and devise some
specific plan of action. The Con-
vention was opened by an address
from President Harding, followed
by one from Secretary Of Commerce
Herbert Hoover.
Mr.. Harding plainly stated that
he had no plan, but that the matter
was left i'll the hands of MIR. Hoov-
cr at whose instance and suggestion
the meeting Was called. The rep
reSentatives of the meeting arc
made up of all classes of men, rep
resenting all interests, with. a large
number Of advisatory members
with vital facts and figures for use
in determining plans and methods.
II was given Out to be plainly un-
dcrstood that there would be no
call made on the National Govern
mcnt OF money, but whatever was
worked out would have to be on
permanent lines. 1t is to be hoped
that something definite can be work
cd out, but there seems to be but
one way and that is to get conf
dencc established and tho wheels
OF industry started. 1t is getting TO-
Sether and pulling together. Noi
only one nation but all nations.
What the Federal Government
and Congress might have done TO
prevent the crisis from reaching
inns acute stage must now be prrti\
we'll understood. How much they
can still do to ease the situation and
start recovery by an immcdiatc
slashinS of the war taxes burdcnins
industry ought to be obvious. But
beyond this it is Job for the local
ltleS chiefly affected and for all the
people there rather than for their
Governments.
Labor Is now available and at
wages which the individual en-
ptoyer can pay. The mass of ur-
gent repair work so accumulated is
alone enormous. There can and
should come from the conference
al Washington an impulse to turn
ms vast potential demand for labor
all over the country into an actual
demand-making every effort to
hasten the resumption of big in
duStrieS at full speed ahead.

HUNG JURY.

The trial OF the case Of State of
West Virginia against Jasper Wceac

the Circuit Court here the latter
part of last week.
The interest of the State was
looked after by Prosecuting Attor-
ncy S. NJ. Austin, and Frank Hill, Of
Pocahontas. The defense by J. S.
McWhortcr and +. y. Read, of
Hinton.
The evidence in the case was
very strong, showing what was
practically a premcditatcd murder.
However the jury failed to agree.
Ten men on the jury stood for first
degree murder, without recommcn-
dation, and two for murder in the
second degree. After much dclib-
Grafton the ten men agreed to rec
.ommend life imprisonment with the
hope of reaching verdict, but the
other two men would not meet them
and a verdict was not reached and
The jury was discharged Saturday.
These two mon who thus hung
the jury and put the State to the eX-

standpoint or other may have acted

lions, but we know of no one who
heard the evidence mt the trial but
