|IK. MANN CLOSES CONTROVERSY Says Senator Earle is In Trouble Tangled in Mealies of Own Net. West Union, March 10.-Editor Keoweo Courier: lt ls a law, or rule, in logic that If a man's pre 'sea ire false his conclusions will also be falso. I see that the Hon. J. H. Earle ha? picked his Hint and will make another sully at me in next week's paper, as he has announced. Now, 1 have neither time nor in clination to further continue this controversy with the Senator. Bul if nothing elso will do bim, then 1 .will let him have it again right be f>veen the eyes. A whip for tho norse, a bridle for the ass, and a rod for the fool's back. Answer not a fool according to bis folly, lest thou also bo like unto him. Then again, we are told by tho preacher, to an swer a fool according to his folly lest he be wise in his own conceit; and this ls why 1 answer the Senator. I am quite sure that I would not ruf fle a hair on the top ol' Ibo Senator';? pretty head, for I have no desire to mar his beauty or detract from his comllness, for beauty is a thing of joy forever. From the way he ls about to tear his shirt, lt looks UKO he la threatened with hydrophobia, and were lt. to develop, and should he happen to bite himself, the Pas teur course, or treatment, would be unavailing. Senator Earle has the reputation and peculiar knack of being on the I wrong side of Important Issues and all moral questions. As. for Instance, the State dispensary, and the case of Mrs. Ben Tillman, Jr., trying lo get her little children' back under her care, love and protection. 1 will sny nothing more on this point, but will t rn him over to the good women ol' the land, and what they don't do for him will not be worth doing. They can't pull his hair, but they can skin his head, and from what. I have heard, and seen in print, some of them feel like trying lt. I would just as soon try to cross a jack with a hummingbird and expect from that cross a beautiful songster, either an oriole or a nightingale, as to hope to see Senator Earle on the right side Of any question of Importance, if the Senator should ever have the mis fortune to drown, and his friends should take a notion to hunt him. they would not go down-stream to hunt him, of course not. This they know already, I presume. For as a man thlnketb In his heart, so ls he eat and drunk, sayelh he to thee, but his heart is, not with thee. Senator Earle has been a thorn in my llcsh for the last four years. Sometimes I am persuaded that 1 am growing in grace, for 1 have seen the time when 1 would not have put np with such treatment from any man, if he were as big as Goliath. So, now, does lt not look a little that way, gentlemen? He has taken a special delight in watching my bills and jumping on them with both feet when they reached the Senate. The very first bill I Introduced, after Itt first reading In the Senate, when lt was referred to the committee, he gave notice that he had objection and would appear liefere the committee. We finally got together and he came across and lt passed its second read ing in the Senate, after which he watched his time and moved to table my bill, and then withheld it from the files of the Senate, which incant it was dead. This called for some plain talk from your humble servant lo the distinguished Senator from Oconee county. After this he asked to have lt restored to tho calendar of the Senate, and lt was done. This was the lime when Major Stribllng came to Columbia lo see what Influ ence ho could have on tho Senator lo let my bill pass. Hut when the Major came to mo in my .seat in the House of Representatives and made known bis mission, I told him (hal if he bad only known it be could have stayed at home, for the Senator bad come across. Ile said, however, ho would go over to Ibo S?male Chamber and see Mr. Earle, and maybe lie could strengthen him in our agreement to let ll pass. Tho Major came back In the course of an hour or two and told roe that Mr. Earle said if tho Supervisor would keep some one in the office every day in Hie year, ex cepting Sundays and legal holidays, he would let lt pass. I said, does not Senator Earle regard his word? Has he changed again? i will do noth ing of the kind, for this would cost the Supervisor moro than tho raise In his salary in his office. Finally I thought of Fred Schroder being tho clerk for tho County Hoard, also on tho staff In The Courier office, and I finally told the Major I would con sent for Mr. Schroder to open tho office from 12 o'clock until 1 each day, excepting Sundays and legal holidays, so this proposition was ac cepted. Last year 1 Introduced a bill for tho trustees of Earle's School Dis trict, No. 71, to gel. tho amount back which they had paid Into High School fund at Oakway, but aftor re i considering their action in the mattor they called for an eloction and voted themselves out of the High School District, and they were not only en titled to tho $90, but they, or ono of tho trustees, carno to seo mo, and wanted to Know what course to pur sue to get their money. I told him what would have- to bo done before they could get the money. I offered my services to them to get It for their school district; so when I wont to Hie Legislature 1 introduced a bill asking the Superintendent of Educa Hon to draw his warrant on tho Coutny Treasurer for $9 0 In favor of Hie trustees of Earle's School Dis trict, No. 71. It passed three read ings In the House without a dissent ing voice, but when It reached the Senate the good Senator from Oconee gave lt rather a warm reception. It received Its drat reading in the Sen ate, when it was referred to a com mittee, where Senator Earle met lt and killed ll. He confessed there was merit iii my contention, but there were one or two other schools, he said, had voted themselves out of the High School District, and they hp.d not asked that the money should be returned to their school districts. I asked bim why he had not tried to get their money for Hiern, for they were entitled to it? lt was Senator Earle's bull-headedness that kept the liarle School District from getting their $90, and don't forget this, gen tlemen, when he comes around ask ing for your vote again. You can't trust liim further than you can throw a three-year-old bull by tho tail. The only thing I am ashamed ol' in this mix-up is that I condescended to get down on a level with Senator Earle. If Mr. Earle will only tell me what he wants I will do my very best to accommodate him, almost at any cost or Inconvenience. I will, how ever, forever hereafter hold him as utterly beneath my notice and the confidence of gentlemen. Now, Mr. Earle, I live In West Union, In front of Dr. Wickliffe's, and at any time you want to see me I would be delighted to meet you. | Oh, consistency, thou art a jewel! Coke D. Mann.

Prend anil CnkC from tin' Product Shown in Columbia. Columbia, March 9.-Cotton seed flour bread and cake roached Colum bia in advance of the arrival of the box of the?e eatables at the Dickin son home in Washington. Ii. 1<\ Tay lor, of this elly, vice president ol' the Inter-State Cotton Seed Crushers' Association, opened in his otllce a box containing some of the bread and cake made from the cotton seed flour. Several ladies In Columbia, who have tasted tho bread, are want ing the recipe for the making of lt, and the loaves that came here were subjected to inspection by them. Cotton seed bread has the out ward appearance of bread made of Graham Hour, and "eats mighty good." The Associated Press ex plains that the cost of the cotton seed flour is said to be only 50 to 75 per cent that of cereals, while Its nutri tive value ls declared to be from five to seven times as great. Analysis shows that cotton seed contains 37.7 per cent more protein than wheat flour. .\h\ Taylor explained to-day that in the bread and cake the pro duct of bread is obtained while the protein in meats, that for which meat is eaten, is had, so that this bread and cake has the nutritive value of ordinary bread and meats combined. The bread, lt is explained, can be made either from pure cotton seed flour, in which case it is very palata ble, but dense, or from 80 per cent cotton seed flour and 20 per cent wheat flour, In which case lt becomes lighter and resembles more the wheaten bread. The cake ls very tasty, and those who tried it here to-day "axed" for more of it. HIDDEN DANGERS. Nature Give? Timely Warnings that Xo Wnllinlla Citizen Can Afford to Ignore.
