A Thanksgiving proclamation
should be easy to write after 1
such a signal victory over the 1
Big Interests.
?
The first woman ever elected
to the United States congress
was elected by the Republicans
in Montana in the election last
week. Her name is Miss Jeannette
Rankin.
- ?
In last week's election the
South and West united for the
first time and elected a Demo- -j
cratic president in spite of New J
York, Philadelphia, Chicago and
the other big Republican strongholds
in the east. Wilson will
be the first Democratic president J
since the war 10 succeed himself. ^
The Republicans warn the *
Democrats that tlie official j
count in some of the close States j
may change the results, to which ,
the replv is made that it is best j
to have the fun now, for if Wil- ^
son is declared elected all will
be well and if Hughes should be
named in the final count the *
Democrats will have had all the *
fun they would get in four years. I
? ? J
Mr. Hughes' wife and daugh
ters accepted the premature an- ,
nouncements that Hughes was
elected and congratulated hubby

Very few people in this section
know there is a real canning;
factory in this countv.
Such is the case, however, and '
it is equipped with modern ma
chines which can without solder
or acid, the covers being; crimped

minute. It has been in operation
since last spring at Mon- '
trose in the lower part of the
county. Mr. H. V. Shroyer, an
experienced packer from the I
Middle West is manager of the
factory. All kinds of fruits and I
vegetables are canned. The i
factory contracts with, farmers <
of the county to grow a certain J
number of acres of vegetables at 1
a given price. Vegetables are t
bought also where no contract J
has been made. This is an industry
which has been neglected
for a long time in this State, and
it is with pleasure that we note
the operation of this plant' in
Chesterfield county. May there

N. C. May Still Have Republican
Congerssman
Asheville, Nov. 11.?The com
plex situation in fhe Tenth Congressional
district, wherein Con
gressman James J. Britt, Republican,
and Zebulon Weaver,
Democrat, are both claming
election, is unchanged, and will
remain so until nexi Thursday
when the Buncombe board of
canvassers will meet after adjourning
today without certifying
the returns of Tuesday's
election in tllic r-r?nntw
' The official returns of the dis
trict give Congressman Britt a
majority of thirteen votes, but }
the Democratic managers assert i
that a recount of the ballois in i
this county, and in others of the '
district, will give Mr. Weaver a
majority. |

An Oakland botanist was pac
ing studiously over the South
Hills. His eyes roamed from
side to side for new plants.
Suddenly an eager look registered
in his features. He leaned
over the fence inclosing a garden.
He had found a plant he
did not know.
What could it be? If only he
had a specimen of it to study!
A youth strolled along, and
stopped to gaze open-mouthed
at him. "I say," called the bot
anist urgently. "See that plant
there?that pale pink one in the
corner?" Do you know it?"
"Yep," said the youth briefly.
"What's its name? Do you
know what family it belongs to?"
The youth's thumb made a
gesture over his shoulder to
ward the house as he spoke
