HILLS I Si (JL'YLltAL ASSEMBLY.
Columbia, Sept. 28-Hills providing
'or on emergency' warehouse aystem
tor storing cotton and state validation
it cotton warehouse receipts, prohibit
ing tho planting of moro than sigh'
acres of cotton to the plow in 1915, |
md a bill to submit to tho people at |
tho coming general election a pro
posed bond Issue of $1,500,000 to place
tho tit ale on cash bania and complete
the Btato asylum, have been prepared
and.will be Introduced simultaneously
In the house and senate when the gon
oral' assembly meets on Tuesday, of
to consider means for relieving the
Kay. spent the week end wi?h relatives
next week in extraordinary session,
criBis now facing tho stato through
tho closing of the European cotton
markets.
These hills were agreed on and j
drawn up by Senator John L. Mc
Laurin, of Marlboro, and Representa
tive W. F. Stevenson, of Chesterfield,!
Who will introduce them in their re
spective houses. Mr. Stevenson mot
Mr: Mr Lauri a in conference at tho lat
ter's plantation in Marlboro county,
where the bills were put In shape and
aro now ready for introduction. At [
that conference tho only ot li or person
was W. D. Grist, ?diter ai Tho York
Enquirer.
The warehouse hill Is an emerg
ency measure and provides for the
state to tako Over, such warehouses as
the .commission thinks feasible for the
purpose of storing .cotton. Tho com
mission to handle tho measure under
?the bill will consist of the governor,
commissioner of agriculture and
third member, to be elected by thc
legislature. $50,000 is to be appropri
ated to put th? measure into 'effect I
immediately. Tho state is to validate
all warehouse receipts and act as thc
agent for the Individual grower to got
a loan on this cotton. To this end the I
authors point the way to. tho Introduc
tion of a banking bill, tho establish
ment of a central bank under the na
tional banking ?ct by tho state which
toould negotiate tho loans for tho In
dividual growers of cotton oh thc
warehouse receipts, tho money to bc
gotten directly from tho government
treasury and lent to tbo farmer at as
cheap a rate as possible, a little to be
charged for commission which would
?o towards the expenses of. the bank.
(Tbis would bo tho establishment of a
state bank. A measure' which ls now
being ?ubatedjby the Texas legfalnturc
for' that* state, .The 'w^r'a^ouse^ receipt,
is to carry - the absolute title . to the
cotton, and 'means have been devised
to this end in tho bill without danger
io liens which may exist on the cot
ton. . ' ' .V1
. The acreage reduction bill would
prevent the planting ot more than fifty
per cent of that of 1914, and ls based
on- the amount of stock used In cult!
vating the present crop. It , would al
low a maximum ot eight acres of coi
ton to tho mule. Heavy penalties arg?
attached to any exeess 'which ls made
a criminal offense, punished hy a fine
of 52.5 for every acre over eight plant
ti, or* imprisonment at hard labor. In
Survey ls to be made by. the clerk o?
court. The .constitutional amendment
Cor $1,600,000 bond issue at 4 per cent
to place state on cash basis and com
pl^tc asylum, is tho idea of Represen
caso of a dispute as to the acreage a
mt Ivo Stevenson. It ls suggested that
fonds arising there fr. could be used
temporarily to finance tho warehouse
measure and then be replaced. ? Itt Is
Also suggested that such bond' money,
cOUld bo used for a possible extension
pt . tn? payment of taxes.
The Ide? of; the authors 0F . wesc
measures ls emergency legislation
Which they believe, will' enable the
ijt?i? to borrow money direct from th
federal government through a state
ban k to be established by s up pl em en
t/Ll legislation, and loan lt direct' tc
tho cotton producers at a low, rate of
rjaterost They would have tho meas
ares to go fnto ??feo Immediately, sc
os to afford Instant relief and save the
situation now threatening the South.
Senatorf McLaurin left tonight for
Kow Orl?ansd tc attend the gens
Cotton conference. He will be joined

Our hearts aro wrung by tho ac
counts of tho destruction of beautiful
edifices and of tho ruin of works of
m in Europe. lt ail a&ums so need
ess, KO cruel, so wanton. Cathedrals
?viiich have stood (or centuries inspir
ing tho people to thoughts of "tho true,
he beautiful and tho good," havo been
razed by German siege ' guns. No
longer will their sweet, silvery chipies
ring out in glad acclaim tho hymns
which have brought Joy to so many
liearts in tho foregone centrles, which
leads to some reflection upon the sub
let of churches In our own country.
There' have hoon almost a revolution
In tho construction of church build
ings in this country. Once tho high
Est steeple was tho admired of all
tho unfailing sign of the "biggest"
church. Tho history of *t|io church
steeple, tho index finger pointing
heavenward, is in Itself intorostng and
could be dlKcussod at length. But"tho
steeple ls hoing discarded. The mar
torlal heretofore used In a spire on-a
steeple is now used in the construction
of elans rooms.
In som places tho uso of chucch
bells has boen placed, among the
things nrchale. What a great pity- It
is rurc that church bella annoy, and
in cases of extreme illness provision
may be made, of course tho church
boll is r.ot really, needed in oittcs, t
whore members of the congregation
may live at ouch n distance that tho ,
utilitarian purpoBO for which tho bell
was created may not bo ? served.
Watches, clocks aniL other reminders . > <A
