that the hill will get through, hut the
probability is that it will. The only

the election managers the trouble of

A t'heerfjuj Note.
Here is a sane and cheerful note
from the Philadelphia Kecord that Is
refreshing :
"There Is unquestionable Improve
ment in the trade of the country. Bus
iness men who are Intent on business
are rapidly readjusting their affairs to
suit changing conditions. ~ Thtr great
war convubdon which has put temi>o
rary check ui>on. certain forma of In
dustry lias created new demand In
other tleids of manufacturing activity.
The processes of readjustment are ne
cessarily slow, hut they involve changes
that will outlast the war aud give
permanent enlargement to the future
Industrial activities of the country.
As soon as the November elections are
over and a season of |>olitlcal calm en
sues, it is safe to predict a very gen
eral renewal of contidence in the fu
ture proHi>erity of the iieople of the
.United States. It Is a part of the po
litical game to berute the party in
I >ower just before the day of election.
The day afterward?* things are differ
ent."
BINNING FILL TIME.
Many Mills Working Overtime to Sup

running on full time and on several
nights of the', week we are running

we had the help needed.. We haven't
got the homes to accomodate that much
help," declared Mr. HtJ?t. K. Mgon.
manager of the Kquinox itilll. "The
owners in Boston state that they could
sell the output of the Kquinox tive
times over ? the demand is so great for
duck'' continued Mr. IJgon. "On ac
count of tlu' war. the demand for duck
Is brisk. There Is a mill In La C range,
<?a,. which manufactures shoe duck.
That mill Is getting ull the business it
can attend to. A three years' supply
has been bought up. The Kunqiean
countries are using all kinds of duck
in manufacturing tents, leggings, uni
forms, etc; Practically all of the out
put of the Kquinox mills has* been
ship|ied to New York ami Boston for
export to Knglund. Our orders have
been Kngllsh orders. We shipped some
stuff to jioints in Canada which is the"]
same thing as to England. In addition
to this, we have shipped some to the
navy of the United States. The liest
part of -the whole pro|H?sltion Is that
the demand for our goods Is so large
that the countries are glad to get the
goods at almost any price asked. We
con hi gladly run night and day if we
c^uld. We only wish that our ma

are still installing machinery and I
can't tell how long It will be before all

about placing orders for our goods.

THK LIARS.
To mftat of us a nation is merely
an individual. We think pf France as
a Frenchman, of Germany an a Teu
ton. And we are for or "agin" a na
tion JuHt an we take sides In a matter
of baseball. ^
Personally, I want to see Germany
win in the present conflict. I am deep
ly prejudiced against the ruling. house
and the crael aristocracy of Bussla
(and they constitute Buaaia) and I
know that England haa l>eeu needing
a good aound licking for decadea.
Nevertheless I can recognise the
fact that Gehnany is as hypocritical
? that Germany h* aft big a liar ffs any
' oue of the other nations.
Germauy pretends to be lighting for
national exlsteuce; pretends that the
war was in a measure forced oil her
by England, who was jealous of Ger
many's rapidly growing commercial
power.
But Germany could easily ' have
avoided this conflict; could have left
Austria to take her whipping from
Russia. And in that case England
would have kept out. (Jermany was
not bound by race to Austria, for Aus
tria Is made of a mongrel and varied
stock. She was bound by treaty, but
statesmen seem agreed that she was
also bound to resect Belguim's neu
trality. If she could ignore one "scrap
of paper" when the necessity arose,
why not another?
Whatever the hidden motives l>e
hind German's action, the one clear
fact remains tha t she could have
avoided war. (Jermany lies when she
says war was necessary.
England lies In the same spirit and
almost the same words. She points
with horror to the violation of Hel
guim's neutrality, but sees no evil In
Japan's violation of prostrate China's
neutrality. Slie pretends to dread
practical slavery to u German over
lord and prates much of lit>ert.v. but
what liberty had she given Ireland
and India? * She sheds tears over the
cruel subjugation of weak Belgulm by
a mighty Germany, but forgets the
Boers she. pillaged. She lays much
stress, to win our love, on the antag
onistic statements concerning us made
by German writers in years gone by,
but meantime she nonchalently inter
fers with our shopping as by divine
right. England is a hypocrite and a
liar.
France seeks sympathy because the
"barbarous Teuton" is trampling down
her fields. But France has been look
ing and longing for this war since Na
poleon III was whipped. She has nev
er forgiven the Germans for taking Al
sace and iAirralne from her- ? but she
wants the world to forget that she
j stole those provinces from Germany
years before the Franco-Prussia u war
that restored them to Germany.
Russia gives the world to understand
that she is In the war merely to keep
|x>or little SerVla from being bullied,
but Russia Hew. She Is in the war lo
calise she thought she saw a chance to
get down to "the Mediterranean.
They all He. They are all lieasts
? lighting tooth and nail, blinded by
prejudice and Jealousy, crazy with av
artce and greed.
They are light ln>f liecause they think
war? because they habitually talk It.
.and. .plan it,- ami dream it. Tltey are
flghttng Tiecause they were prepared
for It ? as the man who totes a pistol
seeks an opportunity to use it or show
It off.
The |K?or. the Ignorant, the work
Worn element of the fighting nations
would never have voted for war. Yet
these till the ranks and feed the can
non.
Well, their rotting bodies will make
fertiliser for crops when the war Is
over. Perhaps that will compensate
the overlords. ? Fountain Inn Tribune.
Fired Into House. <
After a chase of more than a mile
in the early hours of the mofhing,
Tom Workman* wrts placed in
jail Monday C. Bobbins,
guard at- the |H?nTT?otlary. The negro
Is sus|HH-ted of having tired Into .the
home of Mr. Hiram Nettles on bis
plantation at l.ugolT. on the Seaboard.
The shot was rtred through a window,
but 110 one was hit. although Charlie
Hough and one of the Nettles boys
were in the room nt the time. It Is
understood that Workman and Mr. Net
tles luid had some words previous to
the shooting and this was the reason
nsslgiHMl for the act <?f the negro In
firing Into the house.
A telephone call came from I.ugoff
to the penitentiary and Mr. Bobbins
with Ills manhunters, left at once in
an automobile, and captured the ne
gro. who denies the crime.
S. T. Burch, who some time ago shot
and killed his foreman. Cook, wis ac
quitted In the Floreuce court last week.
