g fhe Press and Banner ' ABBEVILLE, S. C. HL Published Every Wednesday by - W. W. Bradley, W. R. Bradley, wf . President. ^Vice-President I Wednesday Jan. 20, 1915 I PERMANENT PEACE PLANS. E Disciples of peace the world over l % are moving along the line of a sugWk gestion made by the Press and BanK ner a few weeks after war was declared in Europe. The suggestion Kfvwas a permanent peace council backKited by an army of something like m two million men to be supported by K; all the civilized nations. HE Some i?f the men who are working in this movement are: Dr, Jno. * Wesley Hill, ex-President Taft, Anv drew Carnegie/Dr. David Starr Jor$r dan, Senator Burton, Judge Alton B. Parker, Governor Whitman of New * C York and others. ?j? Whatever merit there may be in p this peace plan, and whoever may have suggested it first, the suggestion b appeared in the Press and Banner be| \ fore this editor had seen or heard of C it elsewhere. TO SEGREGATE RAGES. ; * The Railroad Commission has askl ed the legislature to pass an act expressly prohibiting negroes riding in & Pullman cars with white people. : They suggest a simple partition cut ik'. ung the ordinary coach in two. The Pullman Company asserts that it is entirely willing to segregate the races, but that nearly all its care run on interstate lines and they are afraid of the Federal laws. There is no I good reeson why this State should hold the railroads lo one rule and the f ?uJlman Company to another. The i- railroads have enforced the segregation laws in good faith. The Supreme Court of the United States has declared the segregation laws to be constitutional and there is no , longer any excuse for requiring ; white ladies to sleep in the same car ^ with negro men. i COTTON STILL IMPROVING. Spot cotton, strict good middling went to 8 1&-16 in New York last Saturday. The market was very active And especially the European market. A little common -sense in putting cotton oft the market gradually has sustained cotton prices in the face ol uabst adverse conditions. If this same conservatism characterizes cotion sales for the next three months, until the trade is prepared to believe that there will not be half a drop oi cotton made next year, last year's crop will be safe at a fair price, say |?en cents per pound.. Weather conditions should not be discounted iu tl\e present advance, however. Many farmers would have put their cotton on the market with - _the advance, if they could have >*: Li si t a. mi i..? f orougnt 11 w maraeu. ine auvauce is a little abnormal and there will most, likely be a recession of something like a?half to three-quarters of a cent. Speculators can bring about this redaction regardless of condi~ tious, but prices within the next few 1 months will regain all of that and o < more. ???? ^ CUT IT- OUT. The farmer of this part of the State iy who is restricted to six-acres of cot^ ton to the plow, will let his land lie /' out rather than undertake to observe thelbw. Everybody knows that 90 per cent t of the farmers of the State do busi|? ness on a credit system and where is r the merchant or the banker who will advanee supplies to farmers on the (prospect of raising less than two bales of cotton to the horse, and, that is the prospect in this section of the State. The formers of Abbeville county u set in to reduce their cotton acreage | about fifty per cent without reference | to the legislature, and this they are I doing in good faith, awaiting some action by this legislature. Now will the present legislature force them to V attempt the impossible in trying to V sustain themselves and their tenants on a six acre money crop, or disregard the law, or will they repeal the v unreasonable law? 'Abbeville county hasn't and will ^ not have a grain elevator. This ? - means that there will be nothing f- more than a local market for Abbe|L ville county grain. All grain crops ?>: are uncertain at Dest in this state, I' and farmers have not yet learned to |/, care for Jheir grain, all of which fcx.'f makes it of little importance as a money crop. I . Our farmers have learned their les| son in cotton and the legislature need not encompass them with impossible restrictions. | . ' It is doubtful if any kind of re ^striction, unaccompanied by State f aid, is constitutional, therefore it would be well to repeal the law, or K amend it to ten acres to the plow, i-'which would at least have the morn] support of intelligent farmers. SOIL THE ROADS. With all the public roads hub deep < ' in mud in Abbeville county, the question of building more permanent roads is pressed home perforce. It is useless for a State like South Carolina to consider building ma *,v . * I ..\ r-. 'ff .v . ?>". ^ ^argr.. v..o,,..;; cadam roads, and when the cost.of 'repairing is considered it is very doubtful if the macadam road is the most desirable. Sand-clay roads give very good results, but as a rule th^re is not suffi1 cient sand put on the clay or suffl-j cient clay put on sand to make a permanent road. The attention of the Supervisor is called to the soil road. These roads have been thoroughly tried in Georgia where conditions were as unfavorable as possible, and it is said that they are entirely satisfactory. In conversation with an expert road builder, some time ago we learned that the ordinary soil, along side of the roads is better suited to permanent road building than any material that can be used on the roads. It is said that this soil as a rule has exactly the right amount of clay and sand ready mixed by nature and that when properly put on the roads will resist the worst of rainy weather. There is hardly a , mile of road in Abbeville county J that hasn't this soil along side of it. If land owners are not willing to give something like ten feet on each side of the road for the benefit of a iwrmnnpnt rnnri. an not. nf Iraris lature should be passed allowing a disinterested centrai commission to assess the value o 1 the soil and let i the county pay for it. ' : i Better roads are now a necessity, and some effective as well as inexpensive means of building must'be adopted. Try the soil land. 'f ===== . j Solution for the Problem of the Unemployed. The liquor men are bidding for public sympathy on behalf of the poor wpfkingman who, it is claimed, is thrown <Jut of employment by prohibition. They state that as a resuit of the voting dry of Arizona, Coloraco, Oregon and Washington, some forty local trades unions undo' the jurisdiction of the Bartenders' International League have ^disbanded, and dire results are predicted. The LabofrNewa (Galvestion, 111.), however, sounds 9 $ruer note. It says: V "When the people quit .spending a billion dollars a year for iless than nothing, then they will have money to spend for necessities and there will be jobs for ev eryDoay mauag miugs worm wuu?. . Who would think of putting up a \yail for the poor manufacturer and dealer in ' 'coke,' or other drugs thrown out of'work ! through the passage or enforcement of i laws against the drug fhablt ? Who will defend the 'poor worker* thrown put of employment because of the sumptuary law against burglary or murder?- lti? the'booze business that fills our- cities , with unemployed and sends our gfrls to < the devil. Kill the thing which notj ouly incapacitates.? at man for work buJtrobs him of thelmoney he might spend tojmake work for others, and the unemployed problem will be largely solved.?W. C.T.U.
