^: L/;M1MS> - - EDITOR ITERMS: ONE YEAR $150 SIX MONTES 75 WEDNESDAY, MAY 16, 1906. Tho Ch?nese boycott seems to ihave petered out. The customs re port'of China foi the year 1905 ust issued i-bows that American imports were nearly threo hun dred per cent greater than during the previous year. The producers of cotton should entertain no fear of the boycott - influencing the :-pr,ice next fall. oBer?.is'LO soil on earth su perioV i? tnat of this section. Al ost everything under the sun can b9 successfully grown in South Carolina. Tea pf an excellent quality is being grown, and Con gressman Johnson is now en-, deavoiing to obtain au appropria tion to defray the expanse of im porting from Japan roots of the j grasrused in making matting. I? has already been demonstrated that this grass can be growrrm the Uuiti d states, particularly in the5 lowland country of South Carolina. It would be the greatest possible .boon to both, if the producer and manufacturer of cctton could get together in the matter of fixing a defiuite price for the staple. In the past the speculators and mid dle men have so manipulated the market that the range of fluctua tion has beeu ary where from five to fifteen cents. Under the present system of marketing, matrimony .itself is not any greater "leap in the dark'* than is the planting of cotton, so far as knowing in ad Vance what the price will be is concerned. Could a farmer know whenplanting whether^he would realize six,, eight, ten or twelve centB in the fall he would better know bow to regulate his expense account, and the matter of making ends meet would be less difficuU. Some of the most ardent dis pensary advocates are muddying the waters, beclouding the issues and creating wrong imprestious iii order to strengthen that which will doubtless in due season take its place among the "lost causes.'' To further their ends, currency has been given a rumor to the effect that prohibition will be re pudiated in Marlboro, loee vn'o:^ncvdares . has""said in part in a statement: ' "The people of j [arlboro'are now, and have been .^or more than- fifty years, opposed to the sale in the couniy of intoxi* eating liquors. They are opposed to the establishment of a dispen sary iu the county, nor would they tolerate a licensed dram shop." A Growing Evil. So widespread has become the mania for gambling in futures and so vitally does it affect the commercial and financial life of " the South, not to mention the de moralization wrought to the in dividual and society, that Mr. W. J. Montgomery, the retiring presi dent of the South Carolina bank ers'association, devoted a large ?'portion of an address before the recent convention to this evil, .whichhas been denominated the ; "greatest petril, perhaps, that has besot the South since slavery." yrbfr average cotton crop is about 11,000,000bales and yet it is esti mated that 500,000,000 are annual ly bought ancfsold on paper. These fictitious transactions are gam ; b?ing pure and simple. Scarcely does one pick up a ??ily paper without reading of the Freck of some financial institution ind downfall of some, trusted offi ;ial who has yielded to this in sidious temptation. Notable ex amples ?re the failure of the large cotton-mills of Union, entailing a ?loBS^?f"millions of dollars upon ie stockholders; the recent short ige of the treasurer of a Union )Uliding and loan association ; the ibezzlernimt of $25,000 by the ?ler of the bank at Ridgeway, iud the stealing of. $100,000 by a ||&fficial in Philadelphia, all >f whom were victims of specula ion. Mere fraud is perpetrated, more ii aery wrougbt, more fortunes ?pianderedt-and more lives ruined -gambling, particularly this iV than from any other cause, tye intemperance. President fon.igomery was right when be id: "The last General Assembly lis state fell short of its duty people of the State when it sd io put the stamp of its tativejdisapproval on this uo &itraffic, so demoralizing in ?encies^and minons in its sequences." j j Editor Edgefield Advertiser: I write to inform your readers that now is an opportune time for vet erans of the Mexican und Indian Wars, or their widows, to apply to Congress for an increase of pension. T have introduced bills to increase the pensions of all surviving sol* diers und lite widows of those de ceased, who have applied ?0 me for the same, andi will "be glad to hear from others in my District whose pensions have not been in creased io the limit. I have given considerable work and attention to procuring compen sation from the Government for damage to churches and the des truction of the same hy Sherman's army during the Civil War, and have been successtul in getting quite a number of such claims from che Southern States reported favor ably by the Committee on War Claims, of which I am ? member, ?nd I desire to call the attention of our people ?tri the necessity of prompt action in presenting: such claims to Congress." lipon* informa tion of any such claims, I will be glad to co-operate with those inter ested and will introduce bills for their relief. Very respectfully yours, J. 0. PATTERSON. Washington, D C, May 14, 1V06 Prof. Harley, Principal, And Miss Hughey Assistant Teacher, of Flourishing School at Plum Branch. , Editor Advertiser: In youl last issue I noticed au item from Cold Spring which is incorrect, stating that Miss Hughey bad closed a flourishing school at this place. We certaiuly have a very flourish ing school, couducted by Prof. Harley, the principal, and is still continuing, under his control. At the expiration of Miss Hugh ey^ term as assistaut teacher 6he was complimented for ber efficient services by a school entertainment which was largely attended and imm? neely appreciated. Prof? Harley, by his untiring devotion to bis chosen profession and un daunted energy iu the discipline aud moulding of the young minds, has wou the hearts of both parents and pupils and wo shall exert every, effort to retain him for auother session.
