( The Progressives elected only 1 one member of the New York legislature in the late election. c Don't tell Teddy. 1 t The Pennsylvania railroad earn- 1 ed $7 282 021 net in the month of * September. That is the largest ' umount of earnings for any * month iu the railroad's history ( That does not look much like hard times. 1 _ I The wets carried Ohio but 1 they are not laughing about it * uiuch. The drys gained in the 1 large cities as well as in the country and the big majority of over eighty thousand lost year for whiskey was cut down terribly. Woman suffrage was defeated last week in three great Eisieru states. New York, Massachu setts aud Pennsylvania. This followed the recent defeat of Woman Suffrage in New Jersey. ( It does look to a man up a tree that the d^ar ladies will have to wait awhile before they can use i the ballot. , a Referring to the accident thai f happened to the King of England t when lie fell from his horse, the i Louisville Courier-Journal says: The enemy will get little oonso K ls.tion from the mishap of the u English King. Should Wilhelm c of Germany fall from his horse t 3 - ~ JP-A.-1 in in Nusuim liitai injuries ino course of world history might be change. The death of the Kaiser would be the death of the German cause. The difference between the two is England's king is a representative of the people?their figurehead?while the German King is the government. His voice is law. The British have lest in killed, wounded and missing since the beginning of the war 403,201. This is the loss up to October or one of the nations engaged in the awful conllict When we think of all the families in ail the European nations involved in the bloody strife in which fathers, sons and brothers have been killed we can agree that Slierman's epithet applied to war was about correct. How thunkfull Americans should he that no strenuous, fool hardy man oocu pies the Presidential chair. We could be in war with Germany and Mexico right now if we had a President swayed by passion and frenzy. ~ 1 i ' ' .meitr in a ^uou UBHI OI gUOSSinpr as to the condition of affairs * in this country when the Euro- r pean war is over. By soine it is y argued that Europeans will flock * to this country in large numbers 1 to start anew making a living, while others contend that the tide will turn the other way that thousands of Europeans will leave this country to look for their friends and relatives on the other side. Workers will be in demand over the sea, to repair the ravages of war, to rebuild cities, towns, railroads, and bridges. Our factories engaged now in supplying munitions of war to Europe will be compelled to turn their great plants to the manufacturing of other things But then there is not much need of speculating upon the subject as the war shows very few signs of closing in the near future. With Greece and other nations about to go into the war the end of the conflict seems to be very remote. THE COUNTY FAIR Elsewhere in this issue is nub lished tho official report of the Chesterfield County Fair. . his | report shows that the Fair is an . undoubted success ncd i's per- t rnauency is practically assured, * It took its place this year us one > of the very best county fairs < held in the State. r Now if all the people will profit i by this year's experience and be- n gin right now to plan for next r year there is no county in the < State that can beat us.
