TUB FIGHT FOR PROHIBITION. Movement for Stateside Prohibition has Been Launched. ( Cor. News and Courier.) Columbia, Dec. 3.-The Conference of Prohibitionists, held in the Sen ate chamber this afternoon, decided to ask the General Assembly to pass, at the ?onilng session, an iron-clad 8tate prohibition law, and a commit tee, consisting of State Senator J. C. Otts, ot Cherokee, and Representa tives John O. Richards, of Kershaw, Charles A. Smith, of Florence, and Mendel L. Smith, of Kershaw, was appointed to draft fe bill that will be submitted to the Legislature. Rev. E. C. Burts, of Edgefleld, the president of the Anti-Saloon League of South Carolina, presided. The conference was held behind closed doors, and the announcement of its action was made to-night by Rev. J. L. Harley, secretary of the League lt was intended originally to hold also a mass meeting to-night In the hall of the houso, to be addressed by Dr. A. P. Baker, secretary of the Na tional Anti-Saloon League, but Dr. Baker could not be here and the meeting to-night was called off. The open convention, set for to-morrow, was also abandoned, as several of those present this evening desired to return home. There were about 35 present at the afternoon session. Secretary Harley stated to-night that every county would be organized for prohibition. "ls it Intended, Mr. Harley," said the reporter, "that the proposed bill shall be an iron-clad prohibition law without any options whatever?" "It will be a straight prohibition bill," replied Mr. Harley, "with no county options or anything of that kind nt all. The gentlemen named as the committee will draw up the bill along the Unes laid down by the conference and submit lt to others, so that all objectionable features may be eliminated. Yes, tho conference declared for State prohibition, and we will try to keep out the drug store bar-rooms." The gentlemen named as the com mittee to frame the prohibition bill wero all present at tho conference, and all four of them are members of the in-coming Legislature. There were several other members of the Legislature here also. The conference brought to Colum bia a number of prominent men from different parts of the State. The pre sident of the League In this State, Rev. E. C. Burts, is one of the strong est young Baptist ministers in the State-strong In character, ability and personality, as well as lu phy sique. Mr. Burts is a son of a Bap tist minister and a graduate of Fur man University. Prominent among the prohibition advocates is Hon. C. C. Featherstone, of Laurens, who was here to-day. Mr. Featherstone recently announced that he would be a candidate for Governor in 1910 on the platform of State pro hibition, for which he has been con tending for years. He made the race on that platform in 1898 and came very noan success. Tho two Smiths, who were ap pointed on the special committee, are big men in more ways than one, and this seems to be a good State and a good time for Smiths. C. A. Smith, of Florence, ls new to politics, but a veteran In good works. He is a merchant at Timmonsvllle, ,and tfas recently elected to the house from Florence county. He has serv ed several terms as president of the State Baptist Convention, and is the chairman of the board of trustees of. Furman University. Hon. Mendel L. Smith, of Canden, was here in attendance or. ?he Su preme Court, and was also Invited to the prohibition convention. Mr. Smith, while in the house, of which he was speaker for two terms, stood for the State dispensary, but How ls a prohibition advocate, and sup ported prohibition in the county con test. He has been sent back to the house from Kershaw and ls pledged to introduce a prohibition bill. He says that the house has a majority 'for prohibition. Mr. Smith was ask ed to-day If he had any announcement to make with regard to the Guber natorial race In 1910, since two in teresting statements had recently been made with regard to candidates in that year, but he only smiled lils engaging smile. Another Gubernatorial possibility arrived this afternoon to attend the Prohibition Conference-Hon. John G. Richards,-of Kershaw. Capt. Rich ards-for he is also an officer in the National Guards-has bees sent to the house from Kershaw for five or six terms, and ls a leader tn that body. He is committed to tho pas sage of a prohibition bill, having al ways supported the State dispensary, ns a step to prohibition, and being himself always a total abstainer. Couldn't Make a Choice. Moniphls, Tenn., Nov. 27.-W. E. Kimball, of this city, unable, it is said, to chooso between his wife and Miss Nora Acton, a young woman of Evondale, Ala., with whom, it is al leged, he had become enamored, jumped from the Memphis bridge and ended his life, his body being dis covered to-day under tho bridge on the Arkansas side of the Mississippi.

Tokio, Dec. 3.-Thirty-five Japa nese fishing boats were caught in a typhoon yesterday off Hatsu Island, in Kawatsu Bay and were wrecked. It Is reported that 350 fishermen lost their lives. DIVERSIFICATION OF CROPS. Air. Harris Give? Remedy (or Nine Cent Cotton. . How ls the farmer to be able to price his cotton and get the price he puts on his staple which represents his labor? There are three things essential. First, organize yourselves; second, co-operate together; third, diversify your crops so as.to make home self-supporting. Raise corn, bacon, wheat, oats, horses, mr' >s and more live stock so as to m tko ma nure to enrich your land, aaU quit buying so much commercial fertilizer in order to stay out of c"ebt. The above system will free the farmers of the bondage they are now in, for the cotton that has been sold up to the present time has been sold at or about the cost of production. The speculators and the manufacturers are saying to you that you are mak ing too much cotton. Now, lets take them at their work and reduce the cotton crop next year to twenty-five million acres and plant the other eight million acres in food supply crops. This would make about nine million three hundred thousand bales, and the farmer would get as much money for the nine million three hundred thousand hales as we will get for a twelve million five hun dred thousand bale crop. Just re member, farmers, when you make more of a product than you can con trol some one else will take lt at your expense and manage lt for you for their own interest. Now, every one knows that cotton is not on a parity In price with anything else. A suit of cotton clothes that you could buy three years ago for $10 now costs you $18. Cotton should have sold the whole season for 12 cents per pound from the time the first bale was ginned. Now, who is to blame for lt selling from 8 M? to 9 cents? Nobody except the producer himself, and do not put the blame on any ono else, for the farmers have forced lt on the market faster than the specu lators wanted lt. Never will tho far mers be able to get their prices until they make home self-supporting and market the cotton crop as the world needs lt. It takes twelve months to make a cotton crop and we must take twelve months to market lt at a profit to the grower. Brother far mer, lt is in our hands to remedy this evil If it is ever remedied, and the sooner we realize it the sooner lt will be done. Remember three things to be done: First, organize; second, co-operate, and third, diver sify crops. Remember, this is a day of organization, and all professional and business men are organized. The farmer ls also beginning to realize that he ls forced to do likewise for his protection. I will give below the following statistical report, taken from the census report of 1900, showing the number of bushels of corn, wheat and oats per capita to feed each person, horse, mule and hog In the cotton belt States. I ask you for a close study of this report and you will readily see why cotton is selling at 8% to 9 cents. I want to urge every one who has not sold his cotton to hold on to it until the price goes up. You may rest assured that the farmers.over the cotton belt are going to diversify crops next year, and this will mean reduction of cotton acreage. States. Corn. Wheat.

With this fact before you why will you keep on In the one-crop system? The man who diversifies his crop is a public benefactor to his country, feeds his family better, educates his children better, and when he crosses over the river people will moan at his departure. B.

Saluda, Nov. 27.-At 12 o'clock to day Will Herrin paid with his life the penalty of the law for the mur der of Emanuel Carver In September. The execution was without a hitch. Only a very* few minutes were con sumed in preparing the prisoner for the drop. After ascending tho scaf fold, Sheriff Sample asked Henin If he desired to say anything. Ho mum bled a word or two to the effect that he had nothing to say. At no time did he seem to realize what was awaiting him and he met death without the least emotion. He was pronounced dead in ten minutes after the trap was sprung and his body was laid In a cheap coffin furnished by the coun ty and carried to the poor house for burial. White Men Wounded In Duel. Athens, Ga., Nov. 30.-This after noon, seven miles from Athens, In this county, Rich Huff and Wilkes Hall, two young white men, engaged In a pistol duel in tho presenco of about nine people. Tho fight origi nated over a report alleged to have been circulated by Hall deroga tory to the sweetheart of Huff. Huff was shot through the knee joint and Hall was shot through the mouth, neck and shoulder. Both men are badly hurt, but the wounds are not necessarily fatal. * -7 SOME HEARTS MADE GLAD. Mrs. McDonald and Daughter Re membered <?? Thanksgiving. Tokeena, Nov. 30.-Special: The hearts of Mrs. P. McDonald and daughter were made glad on Thunks glving day, when W. P. Mason drove to their home, near the High Bridge, with several Sunbeam members. They carried with them a box con taining 60 pounds or first grade dour, sugar, coffee, rlce,?4obaeco, lard, salt, soda, soap, pepper; canned fi iii po tatoes, apples and 26 yeard, ? , cloth; also seventy cents in cash. Soon after the arrival of the chil dren, Mr. Mason made a short talk. Tho children then Bang "Just a little Sunshine." Then Mr. Mason offered a prayer in behalf of those to whom and by whom the gift was being made. Miss Roxie Whitfield gave a beautiful recitation. Afterwards the supplies were handed over to Mrs. McDonald by Tinie King. Mrs. Mc Donald appreciated their kindness very much. She said she was glad some one remembered her on such an occa sion, and she was thankful that God had permitted her to live to see ano ther Thanksgiving day. Mrs. Mc Donald and her afflicted daugnter, Sallie, live together and all alone most of the time. They once lived In this community, having moved to their prese nt home aoout three years ago. During that time Mrs. Mc Donald lost her husband, Matthew McDonald. After the offering had been re ceived those present enjoyed a short social conversation. The children again sang some songs, which were very much enjoyed by the listeners. We then bade Mrs. McDonald mid her daughter good-bye, each one express inb himself as paving enjoyed the occasion. The Sunbeam Band of Cross Roads consists of 28 members for the pres ent year. They, with Mrs. T. P. Singleton as president, have been do_ lng some good work. A committee, consisting of six girls, Roxie Whit field, Lessie Richardson, Zita King, Lila, Gertrude and Eunice Simmons, was selected Sunday, November 15, to raise all they could for Mrs. Mc Donald. They worked very hard to raise the neat little sum of about seven do'lars inside of two weeks. They seemed to enjoy working for such a cause. When the little folks approached the older ones, and told them their mission they readily re sponded. We think Mrs. Singleton should have the co-operation of the community in training the young minds and hearts of the children. Ju.-.t a little help from every parent would make the work of the presi dent so much easier. Why not each one do his part in such a grand and noble work? If each one could have seen how much the gifts were appre ciated, especially by the afflicted girl, surely they would be only too glad to assist in any work which would pro duce such an effect. We, in behalf of the president and members, tender our thanks to those who contributed and to the mer chants, J. J. Cromer and J. A. Calla ham, of this place, for their kind ness. Remember, inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done lt unto me.-Matthew 25:40. Hoarse coughs and stuffy colds that may develop into pneumonia over night are quickly cured by Foley's Honey and Tar, as lt soothes Inflam ed membranes, heals the lungs, and expels the cold from the system.

They were so much pleased with lt that the section or dered lt printed, alan y colleges have had trouble with their administra tions, and it was felt by the parties who discussed the paper that the thoughts presented had been focused bu the right points. Appreciation of the paper was del icately shown by electing Dr. Mell president of the college section for the succeeding year, a distinction of which Clemson College and the State may well be proud. There is more catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be Incura ble. For a great many years doctors pronounced It a local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced lt Incurable. Sclesce has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and, therefore, requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, Js the only constitutional cure on the market. It ls taken internally In doses from ten drops to teaspoonful.

Besides serving as a letter carrier, the homing pigeon has been made to do express messenger service bj con veying medicines, and of late .Dr. Neubronner, a Qernian experimenter, has been testing Its possibilities as a military photographer. A special camera has been devised, taking pic tures one and one-half inches square, and one form of the apparatus uses a strip of film to obtain eight of the bird's-eye views at definite Intervals. The time of exposures can be regu lated with 'mich accuracy. In a strange place the pigeon begins its flight in a spiral curve and thus would take pictures in several direc tions, giving Information of the coun try and the enemy's quarters that might prove of great value In time of war. Flying homeward at a height of 150 to 300 feet, and a uniform speed of forty miles an hour, the pigeon ls fairly safe fro:"? an enemy's bullets.

Death of Little Ros?, Anna Mai l in. Oakway, Nov. 30.-Special: Little Rosa, the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Davis Martin, died on the 23d Instant. Little Rosa was visit ing her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. William Welch, of Mountain Rest, at the time of her death. She had bold hives and was sick only about 24 hours. All was done that love and meldcal aid could do, but of no avail, ins it seemed that God had called her to that home above. Now there is one more tie that draws them nearer that home where all tears are wiped away and sad partings come no more. They may say with full as surance In their hearts, the Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord. Little Rosa's stay with us was short, she being only 5 years, 5 months and 18 dnys old. She was a bright and happy child. With her smiles and winsome ways she won the love of all who knew her. She had two brothers and one sister who have gone before, and leaves ber father, mother, three brothers and two sisters, and a host of relatives and friends to mourn her death. But may they not mourn ns those who have no hope. May they always re member that Jesus said, "Suffer lit tle children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such ls the kingdom of heaven."
