TOTAL DEPRAVITY

We have never shared the con-
fidence, felt in so many quarters
at certain periods, that the rail-
road strike would be settled. This
fact we have hitherto taken Occa-
sion to mention. When some OF
the Brotherhood chiefs, seeking to
serve as mediatorS, likened them
selves during the last New York
conference. to bats darting about,
but finding no way out, we thought
we knew exactly how they felt.
Views respecting seniority were
antipodal, and we we're convinced
that conditions afforded little
promise. This condition OF al
fairs, we repeat, one could compre-
bend with comparative ease.
But let's see what stands in the
way of a settlement in the anthra-
cite field. The trouble appears to
spring from the question of arbi-
tration. Men and women, mil
lions of them, who work to live,
Just as do the miners when they
work at all, will pay more for their
coal this winter-ifitiS obtaiuable
at any price-because Mr.. Lewis.
OF the United Mine Workers, can
not brook the idea OF arbltrating,
even in the distant future the dit
ferences that may arise between
the operators and the miners.
Peace did not come in the rail
road world because of difficulties
Inherent in the paramount issue
that arose between the cOntending
forces. Peace did not come in the
anthracite field, VIC fear, because
of its high content OF total de
pravity 50 frequently discover
able in human nature.

BUY BEFORE PRICES co UP

Representative merchants tins
afternoon give their reasons Tor
believing Richmond's fall business
will be good.
To these reasons another will
be added as soon as the people
realize what is before them.
The republican Fordney-Alc-
Crmber tariff, now in conference,
fixes very heavy duties on virtual
" all articles OF wearing apparel
and on most OF the materials that
enter into them. When this bill
becomes a law, retailers new
stock will represent very sub
stantal increase in price. Suits
and suitings, high class fabrics OF
all sorts, gloves and hosiery are
among the commodities that will
be most affected by the tariff. 1t
is estimated that mems clothing
will be at least 81 higher per suit.
High class gloves may 60 to s..
Household cutlery is destined to
soar. All commodities in which
wool is used will advance sharply.
In the circumstances, all who
can afford to do so should stock
up before the new prices prevail
What delay may involve is indi-
Gated by Senator Walsh's estimate
that the new tariff, though it will
Weld the government only some
S530,O00,000 per annum, will in
crease by S1,316,00O,000 the cost
OF food to the American people.
The total yearly cost OF the tariff
to the American householder is
put down variously at from S.
to S4.OO0,000.000.
The tariff in some form has
passed both houses OF congress.
Differences are now being recon-
ciled. The bill will not 80 into Ell
feet for about a month and prob
ably not until after the first week
in November. It's not well, how
ever, to wait until retail stocks are
diminished. - Richmond News

Washington, Aug. 2S,-Each ma

OUR INTENSE CIVILIZATION

1t is not only most painful
sort OF existence here below, eS-
pccially if one does not happen to
be rich. but it is growing more and
more complicated. What has coal,
for example, got to do with bury
ing folks if they are dead. or with
catching fish for them if they are
fortunate enough to be alive !;
What has coal got to do with de
livering Your mail? This sounds
easy, but it has nothing to do with
pulling the locomotives.
People handling the coal prior
ity list in Washington found that
a number OF caSket factories were
running short OF coal with which
to run their plants, while the TN
dertakerS were not well stocked.
Something had to be done about ii.
and was done. Ii the dead were
to be laid to rest there must be
coal,
In the coast regions there are
many fish plants, and there were
fishing boats in need Of bunker
coal. Not only must fish be caught
TO supply the markets, but the fish
plants were going to make oils and
fertilizers. and the season was
right on us Tor the fish run, the
fish not being interested in Mr..
Hoover's coaling arrangements,
and without fertilizers crops
would be adversely affected. and
with short crops in the trucking
districts, the cost OF living would
be increased. Coal, therefore,

Open Season For
Winter Furs Is On

New York, Aug. 2S.-Femininity,
armed with golden bullets, went
ahunting yesterday.
The open season for winter furs was
on in department stores. all over the
country.
Record sales Of high-priced skins
and a steady demand tor the medium
priced ones was reported to the United
Press from all over america.
Milady, believing in preparedness to
the extent OF preparing tor winter IN
time OF summer, chose her garment,
had 1t laid away and waited impa-
tlently torthe FIRST cold blast.
No radical changes IN styles were
reported. Since women expect to wear
their turS, which IN many cases cost
fortunes, Tor several seasons, the con-
servatlye cuts prevailed. Some hous-
es, however, mad runs on freak styles
but these were mostly OF the cheaper
kinds.
Many dealers, however, stated the
winter meek pieces were considerably
lighter than the summer turS now be-
ing worn.
Dealers in New York reported that
Alaska and Hudson Seal were III the
greatest demand with very little
cnange IN price.
The International Fur Exchange at
St. Louis stated also that the greatest
demand was for Alaska and Hudson
seal with raccoon, skunk and dyed
poSSum for trimmings. There was,
however, a lively demand tor squirrel
and mole coats.
Marshall Fields, in Chicago, one OF
the largest retailers ana wholesalers
in the world, announced that CarracuI
was the favorlte with seal running q
close second. kollnSkl was the 1ayor-
lite trimming, TINS house sald. Both
loose and tight styles were reported
popular. with coats running from 81
10 Il inches long.
Women of the south lean toward the
long-halred variety OF IurS, adVlceS
from Atlanta stated. The lighter
weights and three-Quarter length coats
were most popular.
The girls of the golden west prefer
the short haired furs. Tan and gray
were the favorite colors, and marten
and squirrel the most popular skins.
From Kansas City, it was reported
that women OF the southwest preferred
the short-haired furS Of light weight.
