Thirty-four aeroplanes and sea lanes of the British navy took part n the operations and all returned to heir base without casualty to their rivers, although two machines were amaged. The raid was made to preent the development of submarine uses and establishments which might urthcr endanger British warships nd merchantmen.

According to a tengtny news letter from Columb-' the first of this week, matters in the Legislature are making very slow time. According to the report. If much is to be accomplished by the General Assembly of South Carolina there will have to be some speedy work during the remainder of t hr? spssinn CJrnnt Uiintrc V??wl Yin on predicted for this Legislature, but so far the progress has been rather disappointing. There is a lack of leadership in the House and Senate, and for this reason certain important bills have been held back. For twenty years South Carolinians have been fighting over the whiskey question. Millions of words have been spoken in the legislative halls and practically nothing of a beneficial n~iture has been accomplished. The liquor question has served one purpose. It has blocked legislation at this session. The compulsory education measure in the Senate was torn and attered for no other reason than to hold back the vote ow the whiskey measure. The Senate will this week take up the resolution to enact the primary rules into law. The vote may he reach ed. The liquor question will also come up. There is a chance that Charleston will be given the right to vote on the question of high license. It is practically certain that the people in other counties will he given the right to decide on prohibition next September. Tnere is an undercurrent in favor of saddling the liquor question on the Manning administration. Some would have the elction put off until the 191G campaign. The House is at sea on the compulsory education measure. The members arc all tangled up on the proposition and a commission had to he appointed to lead the members out of the darkness. However, matters will be straightened out and some kind of a compulsory law will be passed. The local option law seems to be the most favored. Dragged Along. The General Assembly has been in session for four weeks, and it will require another three weeks to get the business done. They are dragging along for some reason. WHO RUNS THE PAPER? In a neighboring county a clergyman fnrtt' tVio rvf +1-1 In/inl rvnr?/\? iimu viiv/ cv41 tv/i vi tuu iwai papci to task because the editor accepted a certain advertising contract. The good man forgot that for years the editor had given freely of his space to help the church; had printed columns of notices of services, meetings, suppers, entertainments and lectures, all free. In donating this space the editor had given more than the equivalent of cash. He had given publicity, and thus done more to suport the church and pay the minister's salary than any three members of the church had done. An editor has but two sources of income?his subscription list an*l his space. Yet ,in this case, when he sold his space he lost a subscriber. Of course, no one need subscribe to a paper unless he wishes to do so, but no subscriber should want should publish. Many editors will not accept certain lines of advertising. Other editors canot afford, perhaps, to be so independent. Business conditions often govern these matters. A rich and prosperous Philadelphia weeklyj of national crculation for vnnro ed the advertising of cigarette manufacturers. Business has fallen off lately for many of the big magazines. Now that paper is accepting cigarette advertising. Perhaps the editor needs the money, and who shall blame him if he sells his place to the American Tobacco Company? Collier's too we hear, is letting down the bars, just a little. That's all right. Let them down a little further, as long as fakers, and grafters and swindlers are kept out. No one can run a paper to please everyone, be that paper big or little. It is the editor's paper and it is his living. He is the one who should judge what should and what should not be published in its columns. - .

The United States Department of Agriculture, the state boards and experts all over the country are urging the farmers of America to cultivate ' every uvalublc acre during the coming year. The war in Europe assures the sale of almost everything that can be raised. Every article that is exported to feed the soldiers and the citizens and the stock of Europe means just that much for home consumption therefore even with big crops of everything, the prices will be high. If it is not a good crop year the farmers will at least raise enough for home use and will not have to pay the high prices that will prevail. Utilize every available acre for grain, grasses and vegetables. In many sections farmers are urged to try a double acreage of potatoes. It should not be necessary, under proper conditions to import potatoes into an agricultural county. Put the hens and the turkeys to work and give them a square deal. Raise pigs, cattle and horses in as large numbers as the accommodations of the farm will justfy and any losses that any farmer, planter or rancher may have sustained last year will be more than made good. The war in Europe may last for months or years,, but while it continues there will be an active demand for everything we produce. Should the war end this week the nations engaged will need all our surplus products for a year at least. Take our advice, for once, and do not permit good, tillable land to lie idle in 1915. LODZ EVACUATED BY THE GERMANS Supplies Were Being Hastily Removed Said Dispatches CAPTURED "DECEMBER 6th Germans, However, Were Not Driven Out But Took Their Own Good Time. The evacuation of Lodz by the Germans has been confirmed, according to a Petrograd dispatch to the Havas Agency which states that stores, offices, commissariat and transports are being moved hastily to Kali sc. A refugee who escaped to Czenstochov a, the dispatch says, reports that the Germans have resumed with redoubled vigor construction of heavily fortified lines, suspended six weeks ago. Lodz, the second city of Poland, was captured by the Germans December 6, when Field Marshal von Hindenburg began his dash for Warsaw, 75 miles to the northeast. The Russians were driven out of the city only after a desperate resistance, according to German reports, although Petrograd contended it was evacuated for strate gic reasons. The Russians were reported yesterday to have assumed the offensive on the Warsaw front in an effort to push back the Germans, who are said to have transferred many troops from that region to East Prussia. DIXON BILL STANDS. "Technical Defect" Measure is Sent to the Senate. A lively fight developed in the house over the Dixon bill "to promote a speedy administration of justice in the courts of the State." The bill had been pending on third reading for a number of days. After a debate and the adoption of amendments offered by Mr. McCullough, the bill was ordered to the senate by a vote of G9 to 26. As amended the Dixon bill reads: "Section 1. That from and after the passage of this act no judgment shall be set aside or new trial granted in any case, civil or criminal, on the around nf misrlivpplinn nf llm liivtr av 0 V- vavn VI. JUI Jf j V/I the improper admission or rejection of evidence, or for error as to any matter of pleading or procedure, where, in the opinion of the court to which the application is made after an examination of the entire case, it shall affirmatively appear that the error complained of was harmless, and that no constitutional right of the party making the application has been invaded, abridged or denied." A Fifth of Cotton Land. According to the figures received at Clemson College from the Bureau of Crop Estimates, U. S. Department of Agriculture, the increase in acreage in land sown to oats and wheat this fall amounts to. eighteen per cent of the land sown to cotton in South Carolina last spring. That is to say, the increase in fall-sown wheat was 164,000 acres and the increase in fall-; sown oats 336,000 acres, or 500,000 acres as the total increase. The cot- J ton acreage in 1914 was 2,300,000.! The increase in acreage of winter' grains amounts, therefore, to almost one-fifth of the cotton acreage, or eighteen per cent. / PEOPLE REJOICING i IN BOTH CAPITALS Over Signal Victories They Have Gained on Land and Sea RUSSIANS MAKING STAND More Hard Fighting in Passes of Carpathian Mountains. ?Berlin Celebrates. The end of last week and the beginning of this saw rejoicing in both London and Berlin the capitals of the principal opposing nations in the European war. Berlin is celebrating the evacuation of East Prussia by the Russians, which is hailed in the German capital as another great victory for Field Marshal von Hindenburg. England is not attempting to hide her elation at the success of her airmen's raid on the German positions in Belgium, and all Europe is eagerly discussing the American notes to Great Britain and Ger many and contemplating what the replies will be. Great Britain already has intimated that British merchant ships have been advised to use neutral fags only in case of emergency, and no general use of such flags is anticipated. The German minister at The Hague has issued another warning to neutrals to the effect that in view of the alleged declaration of all the British ports as war ports and the use of neutral (lags by British ships it would be dangerous for neutral merchantmen to visit the prescribed waters after February IS. Fighting 011 Frontier. So far as the East Prussian situation is concerned the Russian official report indicates that the Russians, having evacuated the greater part of the German province, arc maing a stand on or near their frontier? whether for a pitched battle or only to delay the German advance it will take a few days to tell. On the last occasion that von Hindenburg drove them from East Prussia, the Russians fell back to their fortified lines between the Niemcn and the German frontier, where they defeated the Germans On this occasion, however, they have had more time to prepare their positions and may give battle before the fortifications are reached. The Russians already claim to have repulsed one attack near Lyck. Throughout Poland fierce fighting has accurred during the past week. The battles now consist of artillery duels, though fighting of more or less severity continues ir wnie places. Troops Close Together.. The Austro-German forces are mak | ing repeated attacks on the height of Kuziouwaka, in Tukholka pass, which they have won and lost twice since last Sunday They now are entrenched within 40 paces of the Russian position and, despite their heavy losses, are apparently hopeful of capturing them. On the remainder of the Carpathian front the Russians seemingly are making progress. The Egyptian army has just placed f a if o noA/lif V\*r?ll R - ? ? ? -1- ' i.w i io V-IV-UII cl Ul illiaill lt'cll uy <111111111lating a force of 200 Turks and Arabs officered by Germans who were preparing to attack Tor at the entrance of the Gulf of Suez. In the view of British experts the air raid on Belgium proves that the British airmen are superior to the Germans and have a great advantage in the possession of a base on the con tinent as well as in England, for while the British, if they are unable to return, can land in France, the Germans must make the round trip across the sea. Little Western Fighting. In France, Flanders and Alsace there has been little or no fighting of importance, that is, so far as the official reports disclose. It is announced that the leaders in the South African rebellion are to be put on trial for treason, and in addition to other punishment, may be sued for looting and for damage done by themselves or their followers, while the men of means will loso all their property. Meanwhile, the government has announced its intnetion of continuing wi(h vigor the campaign against German Southwest Africa. KILLS GRADING BILL. After a brief debate tonight the Charles grading bill was killed by a large majroity. Mr. McGinnis' motion to strike out the enacting words . resulted in 77 yeas and 19 nays. Mr. Harper of Darlington declared most emphatically that the peole of his county did not want the bill passed. Mr. King of Georgetown thought that the farmers should be left to do as they chose. He said there was no occasion for legislative aid.
