The State Race
In Lexington.

The vote polled for the candidates
for the several state offices in Tues
days primary election for Lexington
county was as follows:

is seriously retarding activity In iron and steel, lumber and coal, continues, It is greater now than 1t was two weeks ago. according to information obtained by the interstate commerce commission, but bids fair to taper off by Christmas.
 Labor short
 A general shortage of labor, which has prevailed for the past two months, especially in industrial cen- ters, Is marked in almost all lines, with respect to both skilled and un- skilled workers. Indications are, ac- cording to reports to the department of labor, that the demands of em- ployers probably will be met by the first of the year. If this forecast IS verified, there probably will be slight unemployment here and there throughout the large cities.
 Automobile manufacturers advise the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce of a demand for cars sur prising at this season. The markers are out to establish new production record of 2,400,000 cars for the year.
 The farmer has virtually com pleted harvesting his crops He has not obtained for them anything like the prices he expected. If somebody would-or could-do something for the farmer so he might obtain his full share of the rising values there would be no cloud on the business horizon.
 Contracts for December cotton crossed the 24-cent mark and de- mand continues strong, according to reports to the department of agrl- culture, with firm upward trend in prices.
 Money in Demand
 Interest rates throughout the country are reported to the federal reserve board to be hardening. The demand for money is generally re- ported to be increasing, especially on the part of large business enterprises, and the flow of funds is away from New York-one reason for the recent behavior of stocks, observers here state.
 And tc cap the climax of the weeks good news. comes the report from the treasury department-un officially. 1t is true. but bearing all the marks of authority-that almost certain deficit this year in the gov ernments finances, will be much  indicated and that 1t will be met in such a manner as to make unneces- sary the imposition of additional taxes.
 The deficit was estimated sev eral months ago to be approximately s600, ,o00, 900. It now appears, however that the deficit will hardly approach half that sum and that it will be made up. if necessary. out of funds borrowed with other moneys in con. nection with the retirement of the Victory loan. Also it seems likely that the revenues of the government will be greater than the sum pre- viously estimated.
 Tariff Helps For instance, 1t is claimed now that the tariff will, in all Likelihood, pro- duce about 100,000,000 more reve. nue during the present year than the first estimate indicated. Prices have ceased to rise in almost every line. but wages contitue def initely upward. Another genera increase in the pay of steel workers is expected within the next two weeks.

PRINCE OF WALES
 READY FOR HUNTING

London, Nov. 4.-When the Prince of Wales took up his residence at Easton Grey. the country estate which he has leased for the hunting sea- son, he was followed by scores of persons who had succeeded in renting other property in the vicinity. The announcement that the Prince would hunt at Easton Grey was followed by a rush to this lonely section. and the houses and estates which have been vacant for years will again be the scenes of house parties and fes- tivIties.
 Precautions have been taken, how ever, to allow the Prince as much pri- vacy as possible, and the general public will be excluded from the es- tate. So far no invitations have been accepted by the Prince, and he will try as much as possible to be alone during his visit to the north.
 Easton Grey lies just outside the old Roman White Walls" and near the estate stands the famous abbey of Malm ebbury. where the first organ built in England was erected, and the first man tG make flying ma chine lived as monk.

Officials Find Job of Keeping Rum Out Difficult on Ac- count of Long Sea
 Coast

Christiana, November 4.-Iiqour smuggling into Norway, in violation of the prohibition laws, has increased recently tt such rapid rate that gov ernment officials are finding the work of suppression most difficult.
 Smuggling on large scale Is going on all along the coast. the thousands ofs island and fjords furnishing ideal hiding places and operating bases for the illegal traf- fic. The efforts of the smugglers seem to be concentrated about the inlet of the Christiania- -fjord. and here is established real market place at the outskirts of the three mile limit. swarming with German and Danish liquor smuggling sesseIs.
 A Norwegian law now allows re venue officials to search and bring Tn suspicious vessels as far out as ten miles from the coast Ttis eN- tension of the control district. how ever, has served only to inc.ease the difficult work of the officials.

MARGARET ANGL|N
 AT JEFFERSON SOON
Human Struggle and FraiIty Theme of "The Woman
 of Bronze"

The eternal woman with her sym pathy and unselfishness, her pas sionate attachment and her primeval figure of The Woman of Bronze" which Margaret Anglin brings to the Jefferson for three performances, be- ginning Friday with special matinee Saturday.
 And in the story of the woman is the play. She is the wife of a sculp- tor and is devoted wholly to her hus- band, whom she worships. and the encouragement of his artistic ann bitions. He Is engaged upon a masterpiece which reflects the as pirations of modern civilization, in an international competition for a million dollar prize. It is almost completed save for the expression upon the face of the central female figure which hitherto, has baffled his ge..ius, although he has sought for it everywhere. At this crucial point in his career he falls madly in love with a young cousin of his wife, who is Visitor in their home. At once the fight is on and in a gripping scene, in the second act, the two women clash The animal instinct Is alive. The wife, HIS llilcHl OI hiiilAih lAS tedSC VI her misery. foreswears the $dtisfac- tion of murder in the light of the maternal revelation; and sacrificing her entire happiness, gives up her husband. Here, the three lives on the point of ruin, are brought, by all most miracle in these days of sac ehrine happy endings, to a logical conclusion without shred of senti- mentality and the play ends as two strong rational human clements would end such a chain of dramatic events.
 Never for an instant dependent upon the effects of sound or fury in the great scene of primitive pas sions, Miss Anglin's revelation of the soul of tortured woman is con vincing reality, according to all critics, that is always serenely simple. "A rare, pellucid art" writes one admiring contemporary in the theatre. "an art utterly devoid of af- fections-a shrine before which every high-minded, ambitious, young person in the theatre should worship and learn."

PROHIBITION IN
 ICELAND SHAM

Copenhagen, Nov 4.-Prohibition in Iceland has gradually come to be a mere sham. according to the Lord Mayor Zimsen. of Reykjavik, the chief city of the island.
 In an interview the Lord Mayor is quoted as saying:
 Iceland is no longer a prohibition country. Wines of 21 per cent alcohol may now be brought in. Although the Spanish commercial treaty, which provides for the importation of wines, s unpopular with many people as having killed prohibition, 1t is only fair to mention that the prt hibition act worked satisfactorily only the first two years. Afterwards smuggling and brewing prac- tically made the law non existent"
