Thc less hs spoke, the more ha heard.

matai M OTIW WITH US.
It IH somewhat surprising to learn
that the food situation In Belgium ls
worse than it was last year, when j
(lermany first cut off the nation's
food supply. Tl so utmost efforts of
the relief commission and thu utmost
generosity of the outside world will
bo required ot heep the nation from
starving next winter.
' Tho problem becomes more dlf
llcult every day," says the chairman
of tho commission. "Tho number of
destitute has Increased from 1,000,
000 lost October to 2,750.000 In June,
und now grows at the rate of 200,000
u month. And our resources, large
as they ure, can not keep pace with
the need if the charitable public
loses interest in our work."
It ls surprising, too, to hear that
out of tho $50,000,000 spent for the
first eight months of thc commission's
work, tbs people of tho United ?States
only contributed $'i,000.000 in monoy
a/yi food supplies. This, to bo Bure,
is a large amount, perhaps thc larg-!
est ever given by one nation for any j
philanthropic purpose. Still lt is
smalt In comparison wltu tho ability j
of the American people to give. There
nre 100,000.0000 of UB now, and mos*
of UH aro either aptuully prosperous !
or In circumstances which are en-1
viable compared with those of any
European nat lou.
"Tho continued support of Ameri
cu." soys Chairman Hoover, "is neces
sary,, too, to provide the commission
with tho moral prestige it now pos
sesses In thc sight of the warring
?powers." That Bupport, both in monoy
and in sentiment, should bo as gen
erous now ss it was mst fall.
SACRIFICING'CITIZENSHIP.
I-".', all very find for an adventurous
American to go over and join some
nrmy or other--particularly tho French
nrmy, whoso "foreign legion" has al
ways exorcised a fascination for
Americans. But many of the men
now going HO lightly to the war will
bo surprised and chagrinncd when
they return-if they rcturu-to find
that they're no longer American citi
zens, but ordinary immigrants.
Tho federal, bureau of naturaliza
tion has raided that"aiijr citizen who
join's a European army, and thus
takes the oath of allegiance to a for
eign power, as all such volunteers ore
.'obliged to do, automatically IOBOB his
citizenship under the law of March 2,
,1907, wtjoee .validity has boon upheld
in a recent test case.
It had ni ready been announced that
under (this, law naturalized citizens,
or cltlzons with only their first papers,
1 who went back to their native lands
to fight, would j find themselves in
their original alien status when they
.oturncd to the Vnlted States. It had
j not occurred to many Americans, how
ever, that a native born citizen would,
by tho samo process, find himself
1 without a voto and obliged to take out
naturalisation papers like any raw
immigrant The knowledge of that
fact will doubtless deter many mili
tary-minded young men from taking
the plunge.
STAN OA KI? OIL REFORM.
Tho/ Standard Oil Company seems
td-hate seen a nsw light. There are
evidences that ita labor policy is
changing for the better. Tho com
panys factory In Bayonne, N. J.,
wh*erovth?re was- recently a short but
bloody strike, has raised wages and
grunted 1An eight-hour 1 day-and tan
after'the strikers had godo back to
work at the old scale.
Moreover, vhe board of directors.
Who bad never before given much in
dication of Interest in the welfare of
their employees, announced that It
was "the policy ot this company to
keep Its wages and working condi
tions equal to or in advance of the
wages and working conditions of
other men doing a similar class of
work."
A report of the federal industrial
commission hsd shown thst the Stand
ard Oil company-oald lower wages
than rival companies flor the samo
class of work, besides refusing stead
fastly tc have anything to do with
employees as organizations. Work
men were killed, too, In that Bayonne
strike,' apparently s>h?t down without
provocation. The situation was not
so bsd as In Colorado, but the elemen
tary factors were much the same.
Perhaps the widespread criticism ot
Ute Rockefellers and their business
subordinates, inspired by the Colo
rado and New Jersey struggles. Is hav
ing Its effect. The yoong Rockefeller
particularly has shown evidence of
aa awakening . appreciation . of . the
wrongs of large classes of workmen,
and a desire to Improve thurn.
A WOMAN-MADE WORLD I
Mrs. Belmont, chairman ot the wo
men voters* convention in ?San Fran
cisco, ndylsed ^"T^ikkfa'*T n0 **~
liances with "any existing man's pol
itical party"-which was good advice
-and then proceeded wij.li thin
dubious proposition:
"Thu union of this sisterhood ot wo
men voters is the power politically of
the near future. For twenty centuries
you havo been led to believe your
work was to patch up the evils ger
minated by man's so-called civiliza
tion. It is time for us women to have
a civilization of our own."
ts it at all likely that a purely
woman-made civilization would bc any
better than the present makeshift
which Is so contemptuously refe:red
to ns "man-made?" Certainly lt would
he superior in some important re
spects, where mnn'r, prejudice or Ig
norance or neglect has blockaded hu
man progress. But when it comes to
organizing one sex into a political
party whose progrum ls to re-make
the world in disregard of the other
sex's needs or wishes, not only every
sensible man but every sensible wo
man must see the folly of lt. Even
if tho thing could be done-and of
course it can't-it would mean disas
ter. No sex, not even tho feminine,
can re-mold the world and perfect
human society. It takes both.
These extreme feminists had better
turn back to Tennyson, who was a
wisc man as well as a poet, and who
made "Tho Princess" say, half a cen
tury before thia feminist movement
broke out:
"Henceforth thou hast a helper, me, |
that Imo .
The woman's causo ls man's; they j
rise or sink
Together, dwarfed or godlike, bond]
or free.
Yet in the long years liker must|
they grow;
The man bo more of woman, she of j
man;
He gain in sweetness and in moral ]
height.
Nor IOHO the wrestling the wa that|
throw tho world;
She men.al breadth, nor fall In child
ward care,
Nor lose the childlike in the larger |
mind;
Till at the last sho set herself to ma:
Like uoblo music unto noble words,
''.'hon comes tho statelier Eden back]
to men;
Then, springs the crowning race of|
humankind."
If women are to have the franchise]
universally, let us havo no men's par
ties and no women's parties, nor any
[petty bargaining by .male .and female j
j? factions, bot-' auch - a? noble co-opera
tion as Tennyson portrays, In the big, |
complex task of bettering the world.

Editor Intelligencer:
I left Anderson tills morning about
10:30 o'clock and at 11:30 was on
the streets of Hartwell, Oa. I went
directly to tho cotton warehouse to
investigate the prlco of cotton. I
saw on the yards, quite a number of
wagons from South Carolina loaded
with cotton. They wore paying ll 1-4
cents for every bale on too yards,
taking any and all in sight at that
price. About noon or 12:20 o'clock
the market came in at an advanced
pr i oe. Before I loft they began pay
ing ll 3-8 cents.. In the presence ot
a .number of mop a Hartwell cotton
buyer told me. to my. face that I had
come over there for tho purpose ot
breaking up thc Hartwell market by
forcing the market at Anderson to
meet their prices for cotton.
My three daughters and I took din
ner at the (hotel at Hartwell and 1
don't think I ever ate a better meal
in my life. After dinner 1 - left for
Lavonla, making the 14 miles In
about 25 minutes. The roads are
magnifiaient, regular race courses,
but no better than the class of roads
Mack King ls now constructing In
Anderson county. I found the
square at Lavonla full ot cotton wa
gons. I stopped several wagons on
the road and I have the weights of
their cotton and bills of sale in my
pocket. One bale was sold for
ll 11-16 cents and another for ll 1-2
cent?. They also gave me tholr seed
bills. Cotton seed aro palling for $30
per ton at Hartwell and Lavonla. a
In fae early morning at livonia
cotton sold for 11:26 and 11:30, but
after noon they began to bid 11:40 and
11:50 for it. 1 was offered for 100
bales ot cotton, or any part of that
number, def ive red at Lavonla any
tune next week, the price of ll 1-2
cents per pound. If any farmer in
Anderson county wants to avail .him
self of this price let him call at my
office tomorrow (Saturday.) Approx
imately '300.' biles were sold at
Lavonla today and 100 bales, or one
third, waa South Carolina cotton.
I left, Lavonla at 3:30 o'clock and
I must have passed 30 or 40 cotton
wagons from, the South Carolina side
that bad been over to Lavonla to eell
cotton. It reminded me of old times
In Anderson before tho mill? were
built, when Blecktey, Brown ft Fret
well, B. F. Cray ton ft Sons. N. B.
and J. P. Sullivan and McCully and
Taylor dominated thu cotton market.
At that tims Anderson waa the very
best cotton market in upper South
Carolina.
A prominent cotton buyer in Hart
well; one wno buys more cotton than
anyone else on that market, told me
thia morning that he thought ?he milla
were a carse to any town, and a
prominent Lavonla buyer said it look
ed to him aa if the mills has us
cornered on the- cotton market nt
Anderson. We farmers In Anderson
county helpedt to build the mills
wHsh on? idea and that ts hast the
mills would (he a great advantage te
us In th? marketing o? cotton. Thia
was th? argument used in -soliciting
Stock subscriptions. We find thal
wherever the milla are located lr
larg? numbera Ute cotton market it
from 25 to 60 points under the gen
eral market where fcK'/re are no mills.
Th? reason of this is that the milli
control the market, and it ls not ilk?
lt uaed to be when Q. H. McFadden
Inman Sloan lt Co., Woodward S
Stillman and a host of others bough)
cotton here on our market.
I notice in your paper there aeemi
to be some feeling in the city witt
reference to my using your columns.
This should not be the case, as I an
working in the interests ot our far
mere and I expect to keep lt up ai
long as 1 liv?. As bas been well said
tho farmer is the backhone of thc
counliy. If ho prospers everybody
else prospers; and if he is hard put
-everybody feels the effect of it. I
bave no feeling in tho matter myself
nor am I trying in any way to reap
any rewards either directly or indi
rectly. As I have said previously,
t?ie.only solution is for we farmers
to organize, and do so at once, for our
own protection.
I wish every farmer who owns an
automobile and who sees my com-1
municatlon Sature ..y morning would
get In his car and drive oVer toT'La-|
vonla and Hartwell and see Uio sit
uation for himself, so ho will know
J>cU.er how to act. At Lavonia Sat
urday ho will sec probably 0*00 bales
of cptton sold ano it will be a sight
that ho wlil never forgot. The roads
are in splendid shape and ono can go I
to I ja von la via Knox's brid go and {
come back by Hartwell or vice-versa.
Tho trip is a splendid one, and I /.ope j
every interested farmer will make it ?
today without foll.

Our school opens with 45 seniors.
45 luniors, 45 sophomores, and 80
freshmen. The freshmen class ia
larger this year than over before in

Furman university is striving to
promote athletics, and.In a few years,
.she shall stand second to none in
ithls sport. Baptists should send
their boys here, and otlxvr denomi
nations would do well to follow with
'their boys. Get a Furman catalogue
before deciding what you''" shall do
with that boy who is to be graduated
by the high school next spring. Fur
man needs bun, and ho needs For

ENGLISH MIDSHIPMEN
RECEIVE LITTLE PA.
London, Aug. 31.-(Associated
Press Correspondence. )-Pleas for
better payment for midshipmen ap
pear frequently in the English news
I papers, for it is objected that a lad
I exposing his life to tho enemy and
! doing.his duty on ship like any other
j officer is not even self-supporting.
In England, the navfal cadets, taken
I at about the age .of 13 years, are plac
ed ia thia Ptoyal Naval College nt'Os
borne,* where they spend two yearn.
At the, end of thu) period, If success
ful in their examinations, they are
promoted to tba-.-Royal; Naval college
at Dartmouth for. advanced . instruc
tion. On leaving Dartmouth after two
years of study, they pass six months
on a training ship. Then they aro
; drafted to 'varions' warships as mid
shipmen.,.. Thu?? tho , midshipmen of
17 or 18 lias had. four and a half years
of study and discipline behind him,
which fits him for duty as a junior
officer.
During tho four'years in the naval
schools, the cadet's (parents pay tui
tion fees of $376 a year, which, with
uniforms and extras amounts, to about
$700. On hoing promoted to midship
man's rank, the cadet receives ls.Od,
or 42 cents a day, while his parents or
guardians have the prospect before
them of paying $230 a year for mesa
hills to the accountant general of tho
navy. A midshipman must serve
nearly three years before getting a
commission as sub-He u ten un t.
Up to the present, naval casualty
lists show that midshipmen have been
Marder hit than any other rank. Yet
for serving their country, they have
to pay, on t*~ . basis of 900 holding
chis rank, $2.5,000 a year to tho gov
ernment. ;
[".'Only.'sohs'of welfto^do people ar?
supposed to enter the navy, but in
comes hnvo heel ? hard h lt'by the war
and the extra tax ls In many cases
severely felt, i The British Soldlor
draws 25 cents a day with: uniform,

pays for his own food, uniforms and
