It, 1016. ' Wilson waa positively eleolud Thursday night. Friday his election was "certain." Last night we "couldn't see where Hughes had much chance." Let's hope it doesn't get back into the "doubtful" class afcain. Fred Ayers waa about right when he made the remark Thursday that Wilson had carried eevrvthing excepting one state. When asked what that stato waa, ho replied : "The state of uncertainty." THE RURAL CREDITS ACT. The Federal Farm Loan Act contains several provisions which illustrate the spirit of helpfulness to agriculture which inspired its creation and which will be paramount in its administration, say a Pro gressive Farmer. "First of all, it stimulates cooperation among the farmers by re quiring the organization of these local National Loan Associations. Thtn it turns a mortgage into an investment by giving the farmer an opportunity to use the money for such forms of improvement as will enable the investment to pay off the debt. Then it requires that the money borrowed shall be spent on the land of the borrower, and it is also so framed that no absentee landlord nor any real estate j speculator who does not actually farm his own land may make use I of it. Furthermore, it limit;* the size of the loan to $10,000, to pre-', vent the use of the money for the purpose of monopolizing land. 1 Even.* provision of the bill is drawn in the interest of the farmer of 1 medium-sized operations, who has heretofore suffered from re?trieted ! credit. "Under the Farm Loan Act farmers or prospective fanners may borrow up to 50 per cent of the value of their land and 20 per cent of the value of permanent insured improvements thereon. If a renter wants to use this money to purchase a farm, he must bargain for this land in advance and then indicate in his application what land he expects to come into possession of. lie will be required to have in cash 50 per cent of the purchase price, unless the man he buys from is willing to take a second mortgage on top of the Federal Land Bank mortgage. It is predicted that this practice will become popular, because the Federal Laud Bank mortgage practically never comes due and is constantly being reduced by annual payments." HIGH PRICES AND POLITICS. A National Marketing Conference which will begin at Chicago, T'cceml>er 4, will consider reasons and remedies for existing high ! prices. Practical means of bringing producers and consumers closer1 toeether will also be attempted. This is effort along old lines, but effort that can give excellent results if persisted in . The cause assigned for the advance in some items entering into living cost seems reasonable enough, but along with the advance in the?e there has been a demand for higher prices for other things which seems without rhyme or reason. Perhaps an explanation cov ering many things was supplied by a local merchandiser who was asked why he had advanced to an outrageous figure his quotation on a simple article of low-production cost: "Well, it's the fashion just now to raise prices." A widespread impression among retailers and consumers is that prices will show a sudden drop after election day. The*, Chicago conference will meet lo?g enough after election to be sure as to whether this impression is justified. A profitable subject of inquiry would ascertain what connection exists between the exorbitant range of recent prices and politics and how far advances for which no cause can be readily seen may have been forced arbitrarily by interests de sirous of bringing reproach on policies pursued at Washington. THE FLICKER OF THE CITY LIGHTS. Before the ?lection, the Daily News made arrangements with H. B. Charles, superintendent of the electric light plant, for arranging a scries of "flickers" of the city lights, in order to let everyone know how the eleotion was going. There is no question but that this scr-| vice was greatly appreciated by the residents of Washington. Last night someone ? with no authority to do so, telephoned up to the elec-| trie light plant, telling them to flicker three times, ? indicating that Hughes was in the lead. The report was false, of course. We havoj nothing to say against the person who gave out this false information and wo are leaving it up to the citizens of Washington to dccido whether it was a pleasant little joke or not. Wc are writing this in order to show that the Daily News was not connected in any way with last night's deceiving message. If there should arise any doubt over the election tonight ? and I there doesn't appear to be any chance of that. ? the Daily News will arrange with the light plnnt so that no one el?e will have the author ity to tamper with the lights. If there are any flickers tonight, the eitiren* may rest assured that the information is being given to them "atraight." THE AURORA FAIR. And next week ? we have with u?, the Aurora fair. By that time the election ought to be settled ? if it is ever going to be, and the folk*, in Beaufort county can turn their attention to something else. Thb fair it going to be SOME event. It's going to be larger and better in every way over those held in the past. The amusements will be of a high order and the exhibits will give some idea of the unsurpassed resources of the Aurora section. In order to fully advertise the event and give the people of Beau-, fort county an idea of what is before them the Daily News will pub lish a special edition next Monday, giving a complete account of the program.
