SIX PER CENT TARE FARMERS SHOULD INSIST ON IT AS TH MR RIGHTS. United States :>enator E. D. Smltft Gives Some < lood Advice to Cotton Growers. The Times a: id Democrat has often told the farmers they were sleeping on their rights if they failed to get six per cent tai e on their cotton, and we are glad to ?ee that Senator E. D. Smith has take a up the matter. In an interview with the Progressive Far mer Senator Sraith said: "A commer? ial bale of cotton is reckoned at ive hundred pounds, including bafglng and ties. The price of cotton is always fixed in ref erence to this tare. A bale weigh ing 500 poundi, is allowed by the ex changes to cairy 30 pounds of bag ging and ties. That is 30 pounds are deducted > >r discounted in the world's price ior cotton. So that, if lees than thirt r pounds is placed on the bale the si Inner gains. If more, be loses. if more than thirty pounds is put m a 500 weight bale, the farmer gah ts. If less, the farmer loses. "In a word, 6 per cent is deducted Irom the indiv [dual bale, if only one is bought, or from the aggregate weight of the lot if a number of bales are brought. Therefore if the farmer puts less than 6 per cent of bagging and ties in th-s gross weight of- the bale he loses whatever difference there may be To illustrate: Sup pose his bale veighs 500 pounds, and be only puts ; 2 peounds of bagging and ties on ttat bale. He not only loses the 22 pounds of bagging and ties, but eight pounds of his cotton besides. "In order that the farmers may ?understand this whole proposition, the wihole thin ? can be summed up in one word: Tl at no matter what the buyers in flxlig the price in the great center? of trade have fixed It -ripon -the basi i that six per cent of the entire weight of all the cotton "tfcey buy is de lucted for tare '"In my ow:i State the law is as follows: " Section 1. It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation, engaged in tie business of buying cotton in this State, as principal or agent, to dedoct any sum for bag ging and ties .rom the weight of any bale of cotton when the weight of the bagging and les does not exceed 6 per cent of gross weight of such bale of cotton In the event that the weight of the bagging and the ties exceeds six' >er cent of the gross weight of said bale of cotton, only the excess over tt e said six per cent may be deducted " 'Section '!. For each and every violation of this act the offender shall be guilt;1 of a misdemeanor and shall be finec" in the sum of not less than $5.00 ncr more than $25.00, or Imprisoned n >t less th anetnse.af'to imprisoned n Dt less than ten days nor sure thai thirty days: Provided, this act shal not apply to what is known in the trade as round bales, and bales of cotton which weigh less than 300 pounds' "I think th * has finally settled the question in rry state of the conten tion of ceral'. buyers in reference to how much bagging and ties shall go on the bal c And I would heartily recommend tl e passage of such a law In every cott? n growing State. "In view o * the fact that the pur chasers of practically all other com modities pa ' for all the process through whlih those commodities pass in becoming perfected for the market, it d>es seem that the far mer should Dot he required to lose any more ttan the mere covering that protects the cotton. "When the farmer goes to buy a shirt made out of cotton that he grew, he pays for the price of the cot on that hat into that shirt, the freight that moved it from his plat form to the mill where it was con verted into .he shirt He pays the commission < r the salary of the pur chaser of th i raw cotton. He pays for the machinery, for the operative and all the commissions in handling it the wages and salaries of all those through whese hands is passes; for the paper and boxes in whioh it is packed; the freight back to the re tail store; clnrk hire, insurance, com mission and profit incidental tc its handling unt 1 it come into his hands. In a word h ; repats, he pays all the cost incidem to the manufacture of that shirt f-om the time the cotton leaves the fi >ld until he buys it in the form of the finished article All ex penses are added to it. And yet when he sei s his cotton all expenses are deductec from it. And the costs of handling his cotton, insurance, freight, and 6 per cent for tare are deducted. This rule is so established that the cor tract for the export cot ton are called 'C. I. F. & 6' contracts. "In those States where hey have no law on t<ie subject I do not think that the buyers have any right to in sist that les: than 6 per cent shall be put on the ^ale in the form of bag ging and tits, and certainly the far-; mers in the li.?ht of their own inter- j est should l ot put on less" While crinkimr up an auto Sun day mornirg Willie Wolfe, the fif teen year old son of Mr. W. C. Wolfe of tie local bar, suffered a very panin ul accident. The crank kicked him breaking his arm. The hurt, while not serious was quite painful. Grand Opening Rail. On Frid: y evening Sept.

According to a decinee received by Clerk of Court Salley the City of Orangeburg through its attorney must interpose an answer in the next twenty days in the case of Kennle BradwelL vs. the City of Orangeburg. This case is an important one?the father of the boy suing the city for $2,000 for injuries received from contact from a live wire while walk ing on the public streets of the city. The City contended that as the wire striking the buy belonged to the telephon - company, and not to the city, that the telephone company and rot the city was responsible for the damage afflicted. This, Judge Prince did not uphold, declaring that the wire of the telephone company hav ing been in connection with the city electric wires long enough for the city to have been informed and have had the wires fixed, and that The city was responsible for the injury done. A had Death. On last Thursday afternoon Au gust 24, death entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Rickenbaker and claimed as its victims their grand son, Laurie. He was about four teen years of age. His death was the result of a case of malignant malaria fever, from winch he was a sufcrer only a few days. It is a mystery to realize that one so young and fair has been called to go up higher, but his death is only another link to draw our hearts from earth to Heaven. His parents pre ceeded him to the better land a few years ago. He is survived by one sister and a brother and other rela tives who have the sympathy of alii in their bereavement. He will be sadly misspc in the home but may the loved ones have the sweet assurance that he has gone to that bright, happy world where there is no more parting and where sorrow is unknown. His body was laid to rest in Jerico cemetary in the presence of many relatives and friends. A Friend. SHIP ALMOST SIMS CLYDE STEAMER "APACHE" AR RIVES SAFE IN PORT. ? Wind Came Near Driving Ship on Rocks While Passengers Wearing Life-Preservers Were Waiting. Plunging toward- apparent destruc tion on the beach of Hunting Island in the midst of the hurricane that swept the Carolina coast on Sunday night and Monday, the Clyde liner Apache, with 125 passengers aboard was opportunely saved by a sudden change in the wind and came into Charleston harbor Tuesday morning badly wrecked by wind and sea, but not seriously damaged. For a tense five minutes the passengers of the Apache stood on the lower deck with life preservers around their bodies waiting for the vessel to strike and determined to make a grim fight for their lives. '* Driven along by & wind the speed of which' was estimated by Capt. William Staples of the liner at 100 miles an hour, the big steamer found herself helpless about 1:30 o'clock on Monday afternoon. She was bound south' from New York and had been blown past the mouth of the harbor to a point off Hunting Island. The gale swept in shore and its force was irresistible. Full speed ahead into the teeth of the storm could not drive the liner forward and when two anchors were put over board the chains snapped like cords. Helpless in the grasp of the huri cane, the ship was being literally hurled towards the Hunting Island breakers, and the passengers, with life preservers on, had well nigh given up hope when the wind shifted and the vessel was saved. Capt. Staples told a vivid story: "Prom a terrible wind which threat ened momentarily our destruction, we had entered as calm a sea as ever nature made. "But the calm lasted only a few minutes. Twenty minutes later the wind struck us with greater force than ever and the barometer began falling. The wind was from the south east and I believe must have been; blowing at the rate of 100 miles an hour. At Hunting Island we ran a close race with death. To go toward land meant destruction, but the wind was too strong and we had no option but to be blown to the landward. Sudenly aibout two p. m. the wind shifted from the southeast to the south and give a chance to head [eastward and get off Into deep wa ter." I F. J. Doherty, wireless operator of the Apache, stated that the wind blew the vessel a distance of about 75 miles. "We came near Hunting Island, 1 o'clock Monday afternoon, where some of the crew sighted what may have been a ship in distress. The passengers of the Apache had on life preservers. They seemed o un7 derstand that death was staring them In the face, but they remained calm. Just at the time wfaen the end seemed to be at hand, the wind shifted." Passengers of the Apache drew up resolutions expressing their thanks to Capt. Staples and his officers and crew and appointed a committee to] present, to the Captain, officers and crew a loving cup. A number of pas sengers on the vessel sustained se vere bruises during the storm. The damage to the Apache consists of the loss of her anchors and soaking of every parto f the ship, including all her apartments, in sea water. TWO KILLINGS SATURDAY. Negro Kills With Baseball Bat and Another Shoots. On Saturday there were two kill ings in this county. During a base hall game Saturday afternoon near Ruples a negro named Garner struck another named Dwlght over the head with a 'baseball bat, knocking him senseless. The injured negro was taken to Bowman, where he died sometime after. Gardner was ar rested and lodged In jail% The other affray took place on the place of Mr. Jeff Ashe in the Fork. Abram Parier, having become enrag ed with his daughter, was punishing her severely, when a young negro boy by the name of Green, became enraged with his future father-in-law, and securing a gun shot Purler. . He has not been apprehended. Tribulations of an Editor. A lawyer charges a man $10 for ten minutes' conversation. The man insists on paying it. A doctor charg es one dollar for a prescription, and the patient says: "Oh, pshaw! Is that enough?" An undertaker charges $100 for conducting a funeral, and he is just perefectly lovely with every body inside and outside the family, says the Marion, Ga., Record. A man buys a gold brick and apologizes for rot having bitten before. An editor walks a mile in the hot sun to get the facts of a death or a wedding or a. social function and spendi three 'louse writing it up and tell lies praisiug people until he hates him self. Then if he makes an insigni ficant omission or charges five cents straight for three extra copies he is a *.'iiigy, careless, good-for-nothing, old cuss who n^ver gets anything right and charges four times the price of city papers twice as large. Feels the Storm. Beyond blowing down some trees and injuring the crops, the terrible storm that visited the coast Sunday and did so much damage in Charles ton and other places, did no damage in this section so far as we have heard. Had cotton been open to a greater extent in the fields than it was much damage might have been dene by its being blown out.

There is small need to describe this subject, as the poem of Lord' Tennyson is so well known, so suffice it to say that this Biograph subject is an unusually faithful portrayal of that beau tiful "romance of Enoch X'rden, Annie Lee and Philip Ray taken in scenes of rare beauty. This first part tells of the betrothal of Enoch Arden and Annie Lee, the despair of Enoch at his inabil ity to cope with the demands of bis increasing family obligations, and his sailing away to recoup his fortunes on a vessel bound for China. A storm is encounter-ed, the vessel wrecked, and Enoch with his two companions is washed upon a tropical island, where they are forced to stay. Annie all the while is ever hopeful of his return, while Philip, though a unsuccessful rival, shows a kindly interest in the little grief stricken family. PART TWO. t i This is the second part of the subject, the first showing the marriage of Enoch and Annie, and his sailing away Co recoup his fortunes. The vessel is wrecked, he with two companions is strand ed on an isle wfoera they are forced to remain. Meanwhile, Annie is ever hopeful of his roturn. This part begins several years later X and while Philip sues for the ihand of Annie she refuses, still faith- ffr ful to her hope of Enoch's return. Finally she accepts for the y sake of er children, and when iher new baby came?Philip's child %? ?she is Philip's all-in-all.
