It was stated there that I states which have large bituminous i deposits will be expected to mine their I own coal instead of obtaining it from I other fields under the emergency order. t N ILLINOIS the prospects for end- c Ing the mine strike were slightly brighter. President Farrington of the t Illinois miners, always an advocate of t separate state agreements, came to the conclusion that the time for putting that policy into action had come and called a convention of delegates of every local union in the state to meet in Peoria August 3 to consider peace proposals of the operators. Next day he rescinded the call because of "pre. mature" publicity. Acting Governor Sterling asked Farrington to consider the proposal that the miners of Illinois return to work at once at the wage scale and under the working condi tions existing when operations ceased April 1 last, pending a readjustment of the same by an agreed tribunal, and that representatives of the miners and operators of Illinois should meet and endeavor to arrive at a settlement. Farrington replied that this plan was impracticable. Orders for immense quantities of coal have been placed in England by Americans but not all of them are be ing accepted because of market condi tions there. Prices of coal and ship ping and freight rates have advanced sharply in Great Britain. The British miners may refuse to mine coal for America, and American dock workers may refuse to handle it it it comes. O NT . Cleve Dean, chairman of the railway employees' publicity association, sent to President Harding ai telegram biltterly attacking the sup) posed attitude of the admInistration Stoward the two great strikes. lie saId: "F"or you or any governor to attempt Sto operate the mines or raIlroads by milItary forces or to attempt to draft men into minIng or railroad service Iwouild be an attempt to estabilish in 1voluntary servitude," andl he predicted such an attemplt wouldl bring on the "long predictedl war between campital Sand labor." lie assertedl, also, that the Republican party was hostile to the American farmer and labor and( that "the hard times that now exist is a m premeditated planr to bring the farm er and labor down to their knees." Mr. HardIng's rpyto this ubrt while dignifiedl, was a scathing rebuke of Dean's "political partisan refer ences" and of his false assumptions. The President explained at length the attitude of the government and as sorted its intention to speak and act, not for any one class alone, but for j"thme American people as a whole and tihe common good of all Its citizenship." lHe madle it clear that while the right to strike was recognized, the govern me'nt wouldI fully protect those who de(slred to work. The latter, he saId, 'in respondling to the call of the coun ,try, are exercising their rights "and .at the same time making theIr contri .but Ion to our common American wel fare." h HIC~AOO'S street car strike was .still in the making last (veek. - Ilope andl despmair alternated, the fr . mer fostered by t ho optimaisnm of In ~. ternatilonal P'reslident Mahon who told ~. the men(' they must take a referendum .- vote ona a new proposal made b~y the c (ompanies, anad the latter due to the s pessimism of local President Qulinlan, wvho saidl the enmpioyees wouldl accept mn no offer the employers were likely to e- make. The workers were called to be hold a mass meeting Monday evening >y of this week, and Quinlan told the is Chicago public to prepare to find a all strike in effect the follow~ing morning. re .--. 1AT0on the tariff In the senate p- ~was enlivened last week by Sen n-m ator McCumbher's assertion that in 1912 1ll, spokestmen for the newvspaper publish. ad era' toldI the senate finance committee r- that If newsprint paper were not n- placed on the~ free list they would (de Ir. feat the Republican party at the polls, n- and that, the committee refusing to lie yield, the publishers therefor did de feat Taft for re-election.

All of this, whether true )r not, was highly entertaining to the Democratic senators. COMM~ISSIONERt BLAIR of the In ternal revenue bureau dealt the liquor Industry a hard blow by for bidding further Imports of wines and liquors until the supplies already in the country for nonbeverage uses are Insufficient for national requirements. Secretary Hughes asked, and presum ably was promised the aid of the Brit ish government in the suppression of lquor smuggling from Bermuda and the Bahamas. The British govern ment, however, has refused the unofi cial request of the United States for the right to search outside the three mile limit British vessels suspected of being engaged in smuggling liquor Into the United States.

Harvey Addresses Summer Students. Wilson (I. Harvey, governor of South Carolina, addrssedc the teach ers attending the sumuner school of the university at the clmipel e.Yercises, his remarks being heard also by a number of citizens who had assem bled at the builing. In his introduction Governor Harvey saidl South Carolina had been behind in the matter of education until some ten years age when oflorts were made to recover what had been neglected. Higher education. he said, then had Mrs. Vanderbilt Asked to Open Fair. Mrs. George W. Vanderbilt, presl dent of the North Carolina State Fair association, will, if she accepts an in vitation extended her, open the South Carolina state fair this fall. R. M, Cooper, Jr.. president of the South Carolina l'air association, invited Mrs. Vanderbilt to cone to Columbia for the fair and officially open gala week.

Vanderbilt at the executive mansion if Mrs. Vanderbilt accepts the invitation, which, officials believe, she will. President Cooper, in his invitation to Mrs. Vanderbilt, says: "Mrs. George W. Vanderbilt, "Biltmore, N. C. "My Dear Mrs. Vanderbilt: "South Carolina's greatest state fair will open here on Monday, October 23, and continue throughout the entire week. The modern exposition, which we are now assured we will be able to present, is in a large measure due to the splendid supjort we are receiv ing from the ladies of the state. They are thoroughly organized and are taking a most active part in our reconstruction progrom. They seen determined that under their leadership the shate fair shall prosper as never before. "The unique position you occupy as the guiding hand of the leading state fair has proven a great h.centive to our ladies. They proudly boast of the strides that are being made under your stewardship. They mean to emu late your good example and be the leading spirit in our greater state fair. "In honor of the ladies, we have designated the opening date of our fair as "ladies free day." "Welcome," in capital letters will be written over our admission gateways. They will be our guests to study the educational exhibits and enjoy the many amuse ment features. Honor will be paid to whom honor is due. "Appropriate and elaborate ceremo nies will mark the event and in ar ranging that day's program it is the earnest wish of our board of directors that you honor us with your presence and officially open the state fair. In no other way could we so sincerely show our appreciation of the good work accomplished by the ladies than by affording them the opportunity of meeting and greeting the most distin guished lady in the exposition world. "On behalf of our entire organiza tion, I extend to you a most cordial invitation, hopeful that you will grace the greater state fair with your at tendance." Trucks Take All of Road. Vehicles carrying a load, the width of which is over seven and one-half feet, violate the state law and the owners are subject to arrest, the state highway department pointed out in an swer to a query from J. E. Sirrine & Co., of GreenvIlle, as to the width of a vehicle and load allowed on the high ways of South Carolina. The Greenville engineers asked for the law on the point as they claim in Greenville county trucks loaded with cotton, two bales across the truck, of ten measure 108 inches or thereabouts and it is practically impossible for au tomobiles to pass these trucks on the top-soil roads. L. HI. Thomas, secretary of the state highway commission, pointed out the act of 1920 wvhich provides that no ve hicle or load could exceel a maximum widlth of seven anal one-half feet.

Highway OffIcials Suiggest New Bridge. State highway officials are interest ed in a new brIdge over the Congaree at the foot of Glervais street, connect ing Lexington and Richland counties, andl the suggestion was advanced that the two countles might join hands In erecting a magnificent arched memo rial st-ructure that would add much to the attractiveness of the approach to the capitall city, and at the same time be in memory of those who died in the world war.
