Thc Richland county branch of the South Carolina division of the the Southern Cotton Congress was organ ized al a meeting of farmers at Co lumbia Thursday, with S. Ruff Lever, of Rookman, chairman, and Dr. J. R. Hopkins, secretary and treasurer. That the fertilizer dealers of the State will be called upon to accept colton at a price of ll? cents per pound in payment for the debts of the farmers, and that they win be asked to bold this cotton foi* a pri. e of 12 cents per pound, was provided in a resolution prepared by M. F. Taylor, of Columbia, secretary and treasurer of the South Carolina branch of the Southern Cotton Con gress. Mr. Taylor's resolution was as fol lows: '.That it is UK? sense of the Rich land county branch of thc Southern Cotion Congress that if the fertilizer companies will accept cotton at IO cents per pound on account of our in debtedness to them, and will hold same for IL' cents per pound, we will hold the volume of our cotton crop for 1 2 cents or better."

Aug. 27.-The Daily Chronicle to-day warns the Kngllsh government of the danger of longland becoming embroiled with the United States over questions of contraband of war and argues that any estrange ment between the two countries would be the extreme of had manage ment. "lt must be the guiding principle of tlie British government," the arti cle says, "to direct its naval policy so that we may not become embroiled with any neutral power. lu nearly every war of the past two centuries we Incurred this danger. "The only really powerful neutral nation ol' tho present time is tho Uni ted States. If there is a wise states manship, we shall remain in perfect, amity with that power, as with the Netherlands, which possesses the great gateway loading to the heart of Germany. "The United States has the right to send cargoes to Rotterdam and will exercise that right. We mus! lie pre pared to see neutral American vessels discharging cargoes in Holland ports. Many questions are likely to arise re garding the exclusion of absolute or conditional contraband - that ls, things that may be used hy tho Ger man naval and military forces. "It has been the British prac tice to regard as liable to capture any con traband ca -goes concerning which It could be proved they had an ulterior hostile destination. It ls evident that .his provision presents a real danger, as the character of a cargo can only be ascertained by exercising the right of search, which the United States has strongly resisted and WORDS FROM HOME. Statements that May He Investigated. Testimony ol' Walhalla Citizens. When a Walhalla citizen comes to the front, telling his friends and neighbors of his experience, you can rely on his sincerity. The statements of people residing In far-away places do not command your conlldence. Home endorsement is the kind that backs Donn's Kidney Pills. Such testimony is convincing. Investiga tion proves it true. Below is a state ment of a Walhalla resident. No stronger proof ol" merit can be had. J. V. Howland, Main street. Wal halla. S. C., says: "My kidneys were disordered, as was shown by too fre quent passages of the kidney secre tions. I had backache and pains In my loins and sides and felt miserable in every way. Doan's Kidney Pills, which I got at Dr. Deli's drug store, soon relieved these troubles and made nie feel better in every way. Mj advice to every one having trou ble from disordered kidneys is to give Doan's Kidney Pills a trial." Price F>0c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-tho same that Mr. Rowland had. Foster-Mllburn Co.. Props., Buffalo, N. Y.-Adv. which was the cause of the War o' 1812. "Picture then, an American ship approaching the port of Rotterdam and a British naval officer exercising the right to search and detaining the ship on tin- presumption that her grain cargo is contraband. The cool est judgment will be needed in such a case to avoid a dispute and a mis il nderst a tiding. "It bas been suggested that wo al low food ships to enter Dutch ports on the mero declaration that their cargoes are not in transit, to the enemy. Whether such a declaration would bo auffielen I it ls difficult to say, but it is evident that the offi cers of the fleet should have very definite Instructions on these points to avoid any estrangements." COULD STOP EUROPEAN WAR By Putting Embargo on Exporta of Grain to Warring Nations. I New York, Aug. 27.-Tko United I States government could stop tho I European war by placing an embargo | on food products, it was asserted at j District Attorney Whitman's "John Doe" investigation into the increased cost of living since tiie conflict began, j Jas. W. Warner, president of the ( New York Produce Exchange, and George Zabrinski, resident manager for Minneapolis flour manufacturers, each said the end of warfare abroad j must result if America ceased ex porting to the belligerent,nations. There ls a big demand for flour in foreign countries, according to these witnesses, with a heavy demand, too, in domestic markets. Mr. Zabrinski said there is a shortage of 400.000, 000 bushels in the Russian wheat crop. He declared the United States could dispose of Its entire flour out put to France, England, Greece and Turkey at any reasonable price and receive payment in gold before the staple was put aboard steamships. Not only would war in Europe end If an embargo was placed on Ameri can products, Mr. Zabrinski and Mr. Warner agreed, but normal markets would be established at home and the prices here go down. Mr. Warner said the Grain Export ers' Association of North America did not attempt to fix pirces. R. L. Carl, assistant New York manager for a Minneapolis milling company, declared there was no com bine to fix prices. He believed there was a possibility of wheat going higher.
