Danville-The Danvlle Traction
and Power Company has requested
the Council for permission to curtail
local service should their coal sup
plies be further depleted, in order
to conserve fuel and to keep cars
operating as long as possible. The
Council has empowered a commit
tee to act in the emergency. This,
however, was rendered somewhat
more remote with the arrival today
of three carloads of coal, giving the
traction company a thirty day sup
ply. Local industrial concerns and
coal dealers were asked to submit
to the Chamber of Commerce a
statement giving the supplies of
fuel on hand and their daily con
sumption, in order that the local
needs can be more intelligently
handled. H. b. Watkins, of the
Chamber Of Commerce, today re-
ceived from the fuel commissioners
a statement showing that in the
first week of March the coal pro-
duction in the United States was
II 100000 tons, this having dwind-
led weekly to 100000 tons mined
for the country at large this week

A Real Winter Storm.

We have had all sorts Of weather this
week. Last Sunday evening a spell
OF sleet and hail put a slippery sur
face on the earth, and Monday the
children had a lovely time coasting
and skating about the streets. Tues
day was a spring-like day, with balmy
sunshine, and the ice melted fast
Wednesday morning when folks awoke
there was q couple Of inches Of snow
on the ground, and the snow clinging
to trees and shrubbery looked like q
scene from fairyland. In an hour or
two fierce blizzard set in from the
northeast and kept up all day. The
snow came down fast and furious un-
til il was about six inches deep. This
morning the sun is shining again, but
deep white blanket covers the earth.
Sleighs are running and bells ara
jingling, but automobiles are not very
numerous. The storm was general
throughout the East, and along the sea-
coast great gale prevailed, with the
wind blowing 90 miles an hour.

Notes of the Churches.

The PRESBYTERIAN Church of Win
chester last Sunday formally accepted
the resignation of Rev. DR.. ]. Horace
Lacy, who has accepted a call to the
First Presbyterian Church of Clarks-
Vile, Tennessee. Tuesday a special
meeting of Winchester Presbytery was
held in Winchester, when Presbytery
most reluctantly dissolved the pas
toral relation between DR.. Lacy and the
Winchester church. The session was
more like funeral than a meeting of
Presbytery, and all OF the ministers and
elders present acted as though they
were chief mourners. There is wide
spread regret throughout this section
at DR.. Lacy's departure.

Shepherdstown, who for a number of
years has been pastor of a Presby-
terrain Church in Houston, Texas, has
given up his work there and returned
to West Virginia. He has taken a pos

Affairs. The Indians generally
long ago lost confidence in Mr..
Merritt. Merritt is a consumat.s
politician. The politicians at the
Capitol control him. He moves
along the lines of least resistance.
sWbat-the politician wants he gets
from Merritt irrespective of the
right and justice of the matter.
This is only patural as Merritt. a
Democrat, is dependent upon Re-
publican support and any pro-
nounced Republican opposition to
his retention in office would result
in Republican being appointed as
his successor. Commissioner Burke
permits Merritt to virtually run the
Office, and our rights under our
agreements are made dependent
upon the will of the politicians of
Minnesota, and the politicians have
for years used our estate as a po-
litical asset. At the behest of the
politicians of Minnesota Commits
sioner Burke has refused to recog.
nize our General Council, he has
refused to permit US to employ an
attorney to be paid out of our own
money. By this action he has
sought to render our people i'm
potent aud helpless. At the same
time he has permitted the Red
Lake Indians to employ an attor-
ney to work with the politicians of
this State in despoiling US of our
property and to continue to keep
our people in ignorance and strip
ped of all opportunities for their
own betterment. This is so mani,
testify unfair that it must be con-
demned by all honest meD. We
can only judge Commissioner
Burke by what he does.
Appeal To President Harding.
We appeal to President Hard
ing to pesonally inquire into this
matter. He surely intends that
we shall have square deal".
Surely he respects the binding
obligation of our treaty or agree.
ment. We conclude, therefore,
that the continuation of the nation
al governmental policy of repudi'
alton of our agreement is due to
the fact that it has never been
brought personally to his attention.
We ask the President to give US "a
square deal, and to put an end to
a condition that has and is inn
poverishing our people aud has
been and is a national disgrace. Z
President Harding, by your
acts We shall be known.
The Chippewa people are
thoroughly united. They realize
the situation that confronts them.
They await the answer of our
