? In indorsing the plan proposed by
Governor Colquitt of Texas to call a
meeting of southern governors and
representative men of the cotton belt
to devise a method of checking the
decline in the price of raw cotton, W.
B. Thompson, president of the New
Orleans cotton exchange, said that the
south should rally to the call. "The
way the cotton producers of the south
are now throwing the staple upon the
market is commercial suicide," said
Mr, Thompson. "It is by no means
certain that the cotton crop will be as
large as many have predicted it will
be. A great deal can happen between
now and the time the crop is harvested.
It is a pity that cotton should be
selling in the country for 9 cents a
pound. Because of the increased cost
of living, the planter is not receiving
a penny more than he did several
years ago when cotton was 6 cents a
pound. I hope they will awaken to
the situation that confronts them. If
thev will onlv hold back their cotton
and let It go gradually prices will immediately
begin to soar."
? The following facts and figures give
an approximate idea of the magnitude
of the McXamara trial, which began
last Wednesday at Los Angeles, California,
before Judge Walter Bordwell:
Number of witnesses to be
called by the prosecution, 425; number
of witnesses who will probably be
called by the defense, 135; number of
lawyers who will appear in the court
room for the defense and the prosecution,
10; number of lawyers associated
with the defense and prosecution
who will not appear in the court
room, 40; number of detectives employed
by the defense and prosecution,
600; length of time estimated
for the first trial, 180 days; estimated
number of words which will be contained
in official transcript of the case,
7,200,000; approximate expense to the
defense and prosecution, $2,000,000;
number of states where witnesses will
be secured, 15; number of correspondents
who will report the trial, 64; number
of spectators who may secure
daily entrance to the court room, 74;
number of experts who will be called
as witnesses, 425.
? Those who oppose the acceptance
of a silver tray bearing the figure of
Brigham Young and the Mormon temple
at Salt Lake City, made for tl)e
battleship Utah, had another tray
manufactured with the Mormon pictures
omitted and now offer it to the
secretary of the navy as a substitute.
Mrs. Erna von Owen, chairman of the
committee opposed to the acceptance
of the Mormon tray, went to Washington
Wednesday in the interest of
the movement, and made public a letter
sent to Secretary Meyer. In this letter
the committee says: "We beg of
you to bear in mind that while the
presentation of the silver service to
the battleship Utah may be a state
affair, the acceptance of It is a national
affair- that the United States
battleship Utah does not belong to
the state of Utah but to the United
States." The proposed substitute tray
is facsimile of the original Mormon
design, except that in place of Brigham
Young and the Mormon temple
it bears the figure of a woman typifying
Utah.
? Mexico City, Oct. 11: Determined
to know just why he Mexican government
paid Gustavo Madero, a
brother of the president-elect, <42,195
pesos, and what it has cost to muster
out the revolutionary forces, the
chamber of deputies tonight called
upon President de la Barra for an accounting.
At other times the chamber
has availed itself of ita right to
interpolate a cabinet officer and on one
occasion Senor de la Barra, the head
of the foreign office, but this is the
first time in the history of the country
that the deputies have claimed the
right to issue a citation for the prepK
dent. The deputies were discussing
the new electoral laur when a^aeputy
from the state oC Vara Crux asked and
received permission to introduce his
measure. It was adopted 30 to 60. At
the time the money was paid Gus2ft
tavo Madero several months ago it
wag explained that it was to reim\
burse nim for expenditures made for
th* cause of the revolution. It appears
w?at his claim was not submitted to I
the commission appointed to consider
such bills.
?* Tripoli, October 10: The Turks
apparently do not intend to abandon
Tripoli to the Italians without a further
determined resistance. For several
days bands of horsemen have
been reconnoitering in the vicinity of
the Italian posts. At 1 o'clock this
morning a force of about 3,000 Turks
with field guns was discovered advancing
in two columns, with the evident
intention of recapturing the
town. A large body of natives marched
with the troops and presented a
formidable array. The Italian commander,
however, had an intimation
that such an attempt would probably
be made and the Turks were met with
a heavy artillery and rifle fire, to
which they replied with equal energy.
It was moonlight, and the fleet turned
the search lights on the contending
forces. When the engagement was at
its height the battleships and cruisers
joined in with their smaller batteries,
directing the shells to cover the Italian
front and flank. For more than
an hour the firing on shore was continued,
but about 2 o'clock it slackened
and finally ceased. The Turks
retired in good order, although it is
reported they suffered heavy loss. The
Italian casualties were slight. The
fleet pursued the retreating Turks
with a heavy shell fire until 6 o'clock.
? That circumstantial evidence
sometimes causes innocent persons to
suffer for the crimes of others was
proved at New Roads, La, last Monday,
by the arrest of William Brown
on the charge of killing George Hansom,
a pressman of that city, four
years ago, following what was thought
to be at the time a death-bed confession.
Following the killing, Henry
High, an electrician, was arrested, as
he and Hansom had both been showering
attention upon the woman at
whose home the killing took place, and
he was seen in the neighborhood on
the night of the crime. At High's first
trial the jury disagreed. High was
later convicted of manslaughter and
sentenced to ten years. The supreme
court held he was entitled to a new
trial, but the court officials, after he
had spent several months in jail,
turned him out and his case never
came up again. High missed a verdict
of capital punishment by one
vote In the jury box, the obstinate
juror holding out for manslaughter.
Sheriff Brown on Monday received a
letter from the state penitentiary,
where Brown had been a guard. Brown
had fallen ill, and thinking he was
about to die, confessed that he killed
Hansom because of a girl in the
neighborhood. Brown said he was
glad High had escaped punishment.
He is expected to recover, in which
case he will be tried for the killing.
? Washington, October 10: An order
for the reconsidering of the perplexing
questions: "What is beer?"
"What is vinegar?" and "What is a
soft drink?" was passed this afternoon
by the board of food and drug
inspection, at a meeting held in the
office of Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief
of the bureau of chemistry and chairman
of the board. These three pure
food problems have been under consideration
for nearly two years, but
members of the board have been unable
to agree. The retirement of Solicitor
George P. McCabe and the tem"porary
absence of Dr. F. L. Dunlap
from the board, leaves Dr. Wiley and
Dr. R. E. Doolittle, the new member,
prepared to take immediate action to
settle the long-standing controversies.
Vinegar will be the first subject considered
by the board. Long hearings
were recently held on the subject of
pure beer; and hearings have been
had on both the vinegar and soft
drinks Investigations. It is the contention
of Dr. Wiley that pure vinegar
should be made only from cider, and
that vinegars made from malt, sugar,
molasses, wine and other ingredients
should not be branded as pure vinegar.
It is understood that Dr. Doolittle,
who is the "vinegar expert" of
the department of agriculture, holds
a similar view, and that the board of
food and drug inspection is likely to
make a ruling soon in line with Dr.
Wiley's views. There will be no more
hearings on any of the three subjects.
Dr. Wiley stated today that hearings
and investigations have been sufficiently
thorough to develop all material
facts and that it remains only
for the board to examine the evidence
and make its rulings. This has been
impossible in the past because of the
disagreement between the three members.
Action against soft drinks sold
at soda fountains can apply only to
the drinks as they are shipped in interstate
commerce. The government
police power will give Dr. Wiley opj
portunlty, however, to enforce his rul[
ings in Washington city by confiscating
impure drinks at the local soda
fountains. "The pure soft drink
should contain only a pure fruit extract,
sugar, spice and pure water,"
said Dr. Wiley. "If I had my way no
other soft drinks would be permitted
in the market. The health of children
should not be endangered by the artificial
sweeteners, coloring matter
and flavors that are sometimes used
and the public should be protected
against the caffein and 'dope' that
finds its way into many of the drinks."

FRIDAY. OCTOBER 13, 1911.
Woman suffrage would help the situation
in South Carolina.
But there is one very gratifying fact
to consider and that is that the corn
and meat accounts are not so heavy
this fall as they once were.
The jury that held the Inquest over
Willis Jackson returned a verdict
which says that the negro came to his
death at the hands of parties unknown.
James J. Hill, the railroad king, says
that there is right ahead of this country
better times than it has ever seen
and we believe it. There is no reason
why it should be otherwise.
If China, the oldest empire in the
world, should become a republic, it
would seem that the days of monarchial
government are Indeed being
numbered. Really it looks that way,
anyhow.
Col. Pope Brown, Prohibition candidate
for governor of Georgia, makes

of whisky houses have of

talk would have been suggestive of a
dream, but now many are beginning
to appreciate it as a wideawake truth.
-yWe do not think there is any good
reason to doubt that the present low
price of cotton is due more to the influence
of the gamblers than to the
operation of the laws of supply and
demand, and we believe also that much
of the present crop will be sold for 12
cents and over.
The war that Judge DeVore started
on vagrancy a few years ago is still
going on throughout the state; but
notwithstanding all the law on the
subject to be found in the statutes,
it is being developed that very little
of that law is enforclble.
If it is a fact that W. R. Hearst has

remains the unfettered apostle of pure,
undefiled Democracy. Wilson is the
man who comes nearest to reflecting
the real hopes of the people.
Returns from the constitutional
amendment election in California last
Tuesday, show the adoption of the initiative
and referendum and of the recall
of judges by an overwhelming majority,
and indicate also that woman
suifrage is hereafter to be a part of
the fundamental law.
The feeling that cotton futures are
going up as if attached to a balloon,
is growing strong throughout the
south, and the sharpers of Wall
Street are hugging themselves over
the prospect of the lamb shearing
they are going to have later on.
Lewis W. Parker, the largest cotton
manufacturer in South Carolina, takes
the position that the Democratic partyis
right in its effort to reduce the tariff
on the cotton schedule. We are
frank to say that we do not fully understand
the probable effect of such a
reduction; but it seems to us that if a
man of Mr. Parker's experience and
position can endorse the proposition
the rest of us ought to be able to
stand it.
As to whether Hyde, Hughes or
Grace will be elected mayor of Charleston,
we do not know. We believe
Hyde is the best man, and would like
to see him elected; but as we did not
note our name in the re ntly published
club roll, we have no reason to anticipate
that our suffrage will figure.
However much we would prefer Hyde
to the others, if it be a matter of a
dishonest election or the choice of some
other candidate, we hope that some
other candidate will be chosen.
Is it not strange how the gambling
sharks in Wall Street are able to pull
the wool over the eyes of honest men
and make them concede that wan
Street gambling is legitimate? Those
fellows who take millions out of the
crops by manipulation are held in far
higher esteem by the lawmakers than
are the people who toil and perspire
to produce those crops. And the
people who do the work go ulong and
accept it all without a murmur.
It used to be that they could not
convict a man of murder in any degree
in Lancaster county, even if he
would confess assassination. There
were those who said the reason was
because it was almost impossible to
get Up a jury of twelve men that did
not include at least one man who
had either been tried for his life himself
or who had gone through the ordeal
with a near relative. Hut conditions
are changing, it seems. In
the case of J. C. Watts, charged with
murdering C. C. Falle, the jury on
Wednesday found a verdict of guilty
of murder with a recommendation to
the mercy of the court, and although
the state was unable to make out a
good ease of guilt against Jim Clark.
colored, charged with killing a woman
of his own race, the jury brought
in a verdict of guilty of carrying concealed
weapons and Judge Watts Imposed
a fine of $50.
At the annual convention of the National
Association of Railroad Commissioners
in Washington this week,
there came up a proposition to the effect
that there is no reason why the
railroads should not be carrying express
matter themselves instead of
leaving it to the express companies.
A resolution was offered providing that
legislation be asked for to abolish the
express companies; but no action was
taken. It seems to us that this suggestion
is along the right line. The ex
press company looks to us Ilk? an unnecessary
parasite, and the railroads
could just as well do the business on
their own account and at less expense
to the people who pay the freight.
Columbia, October 12.?The sheriffs
of Anderson and Greenville counties
and their deputies from whom the negro
Willis Jackson was taken in Greenville
county and lynched in Anderson
county, may find themselves in a serious
predicament if the attorney general
or solicitor desires to institute
prosecutions. Any officer from whom
a prisoner is taken by a mob is liable,
under the constitution, to be prosecuted
for a misdemeanor and, if convicted,
to be deposed from office. It is
made the duty of the solicitor to institute
the prosecution. Further, the
county in which a lynching occurs is
liable for damages to the legal representatives
of the person lynched and
the county may recover the sum from
the persons taking part in the lynching.
Yes. that is the law; but up to this
time it has not been enforced, and it
is not going to be enforced now.
The death of Judge Klugh is announced
with sorrow and regret. He
was a Christian gentleman, and an
able, conscientious arid just judge.
The only objection that has ever been
urged against him has been in the
sessions side of the circuit court,
Many considered that his sentences
were ridiculously mild. Where some
of the other judges would My two
years, Judge Klugh would say todays.
He was never excessive In the punishment
meted out And perhaps this
was not altogether wrong, because
above all else he desired to be just,
and could not bring himself to be
harsh with the weak while he realized
that still worse offenders, who are
stronger, are allowed to go free. Judge
Klugh was a just Judge and a Christian.
Mrs. H. W. Richardson of the Wade
Hampton chapter, U. D. C., is writing
the editors of the state asking co-operatlon
in getting up authentic information
as to Red Shirt history: We
would be very glad to be of assistance;
but with so many different versions,
we really do not see how the
wheat is going to be picked from the
chaff. It might be well to take a short
cut and turn the whole matter over to
Clerk Brooks, who was in Mississippi
at the time; but who speaks ex-cathedra
on the subject all the same, notwithstanding
the record of contemporary*
newspapers to the contrary.
However, any one who desires to examine
the files of The Yorkvllle Enquirer
for 1876 and 1878 is welcome
to do so. By examination or tne nies
of The Enquirer and other papers of
those days, it will be found that after
all there were very few Red Shirts until
1878. The idea started In 1876, it
is true; but the Red Shirts were not
even a distinguishing feature of that
campaign.
There was nothing brave, generous
or virtuous about the murder of that
negro at Honea Path Tuesday night.
That the negro was deserving of death
there is no question, and neither is
there any question of the fact that he
would have been put to death by due
process of law and within a very short
time. He would have been punished
just as much as he has been, and
more. If there were no legal punishment
for this crime, then these lynchers
would have been justified in doing
what they did; but under the circumstances
they have voluntarily and
wantonly committed a cowardly crime
and stained their souls with murder.
There are thousands who applaud this
crime. We know this; but very few
of these thousands realize that the
same people who so wantonly and ferociously
murder a poor brute of a negro,
with a crime like this as a pretext,
would just as readily murder some
white man because of some real or
fancied grudge if they were not afraid.
We think it would have been of more
credit to the officers of Anderson and
Greenville counties if, instead of running,
they had stood their ground and
fought?not for the negro, but for the
law.
Alfalfa.
it is oonceded bv all the farmers
everywhere who have had experience
and who know most about the
subject, that alfalfa is the most valuable
field crop that can be grown.
Alfalfa makes a complete and perfect
ration for every kind of domestic
animal, including poultry, and the
possibilities of wealth in an alfalfa
crop seem to be without limit.
There is no question of the fact
that the alfalfu growers of the west,
where they have succeeded in getting
a good, substantial footing, have
very considerable advantage over
cotton raisers of the south.
It is true that western lands, particularly
those In Texas. Oklahoma,
New Mexico and other neighboring
states, are better adapted to the production
of alfalfa than are the lands
of the south; but because this is true
it is not to be understood that alfalfa
cannot be profitably raised in the
south.
In this connection it is worth while
to remember that cotton, that crop
which we have all taught ourselves
to believe is the crop of crops for
this section, grows to greater perfection
and is produced more cheaply in
Texas than it is in South Carolina,
and we believe that those who have
been familiar with conditions for so
long a time will agree with us when
we say that after looking into conditions
as they existed in South Carolina
and in Texas, thirty years ago,
a cotton expert of that day would
*- 1 , .,..,.11.,., I?
nil ve till \ l?t*U OUUlll v/(I1 utiua j?v v?|mv
that for them to undertake to make
a living growing cotton was a useless
waste of time. The advice of such an
expert would have been based on the
fact that in Texas there is nothing to
do but to plant the cotton and cultivate
it a little until it gets a fair start,
while in South Carolina, under conditions
existing then, it would have
been impossible to foresee the means
whereby such crops as we are now
producing could be raised.
Alfalfa can be produced in South
Carolina. It cannot be produced
with the ease and facility that It can J
be produced in Texas; but If our people
will study it as they have studied
cotton, they will learn how to produce
it profitably, and the day will '
come when they will be able to make
as good a showing of the proceeds of
an acre of alfalfa us they are now *
able to make of the proceeds from an
acre of cotton, and that will mean J
that they will be able to beat Texas
raising alfalfa Just as they are now ^
Dealing Texas raising coiion.
One great trouble with our people
is that they dearly love to raise cotton.
They would rather raise cotton, ?
It seems, than to raise some other
crop that would net them twice the
money, and when they branch out as ^
an experiment with some other crop
and fail the first season to get results
equal to the results gotten by the ^
people who have had years of experience,
they are too quick to throw S
everything down in despair and say,
"It can't be done."
Alfalfa can be grown in this coun- y
try. It has been profitably grown on
a small scale and It can be profitably
grown on a large scale; but no rea- y
sonable man need expect to start in
without previous knotVJedge and experience
and develop into a full j
fledged alfalfa producer the very first
season.

Of course we have no quarrel with

we have no quarrel. When he triee

why the expense should be borne by N

REVOLUTION IN CHINA. [J
t Y
Civil War is Reaching Great Propor- cc
Hankow, China, October ll.-Mifbl- p<
nese revolutionary forces have won.a
decisive victory, gaining possession ;of
the city of Wu Chang, after a battle id
with loyal troops that began yester- in
day and continued until late last night.
Today the foreign residents had not jn
been molested. The revolutionary n<
committee issued a proclamation ex- ?*
horting its followers not to harm the pI
citizens of other countries. The fact
that the wishes of the committee have j-1
been respected thus far, while reas- J1'
suring to other nations, is in itself a t0
sinister sign for the government at pi
Pekin, as it indicates that the rebel- ai
lious movement is thoroughly organ- p
ized. t0
Earlier outbreaks had assumed the aI
character of rioting in which the mobs ?f
were soon worked out of the control w'
of intelligent leadership, thus making n<
their defeat by the better directed ^
government troops comparatively easy. ^
The fear of the officials now is that
the dissatisfaction among the troops
will spread to this city, and every ef- th
fort is being made to ward off this j"
danger. le
Five gunboats are now in tjie river ln
to protect Hankow. The foreign consuls
have telegraphed their govern- ac
ments asking that warships be sent
to the scene. American and Japanese ?*
cruisers are expected here tonight. p(
As another measure of precaution, Fl
the merchant vessels in the harbor
are keeping steam up and women and or
children will be permitted to go aboard w
tnem tonignt. tr
Volunteers have surrounded the for- ni
eign quarters and will remain on duty th
during the night until the safety of la
all foreigners is assured. id
It appears that the revolutiona- g<
ries defeated In Sze Chuen province, Hi
where they for some time besieged the is
capital, Ching Tu, transferred their fo
chief activities to Hu Peh province, oc
with the intention of making the base tli
for renewed operations in Sze Chuen. hi
According to officials, an uprising n<
in Wu Chang was planned for last th
Monday night. The plot was discov- m
ered earlier that evening and thirty- w
two arrests were made. Desiring to cc
terrorize the revolutionists four of the te
prisoners were beheaded in the streets th
yesterday. This drastic action of the cc
authorities does not appear to have ch
had the desired effect. w
Immediately after the execution, a hi
portion of the government artillery O
forces within the city mutinied, went in
over to the rebels and the uprising tr
was precipitated. w
Seeing that resistance was useless to
the viceroy fled the city and found ar
refuge on a private yacht that was th
lying in the river. His headquarters dc
and those of the provincial treasurer It
were burned. The military comman- M
der was assassinated. a
Wu Chang, with its 600,000 inhabi- ly
tants, is the capital of the central m
province of Wu Peh. It is just across kl
the Cheng Tse river from Hankow, m
and in a sense the two may be regard- pc
?'d as one city of 1,500,000. th
Hankow is the greater trading cen- hi
ter for all of central China, but Wu ar
Chang takes precedence over It in po- al
litical importance. bt
The province of Hu Hepeh?a name sq
which may be translated "North of
Lake"?is considerably larger than ar
England and Wales combined and has th
a population of 35,000,000. Wu Chang dc
and Hankow as great trade centers to
and ports for oe?*an steamers have th
both felt to a considerable extent the th
influence of western civilization. Both th
cities have thrown their idols into the of
streets, clearing many of their tern- gc
pies of priests and all emblems of pr
worship to make room for public lis
schools. of
The movement has been purely materialistic.
Its leaders stimulated by
the example of Japan In adopting
western methods of teaching, have
been seized with the idea that edu- m
cation is the one thing needed to make _r
China great. The worship of Confu- w
cius remains for the present in the wj
schools, but observers declare that it
is purely the worship of a great mem- ~
ory. Rl
The more progressive element in the a?
population is said to regard all rell- th
gion, whether Buddhism, Christianity wl
or any other as impracticable supersti- tion.
The Christian missionaries, how- W
ever, have been able to make consid- a\
erable headway, particularly through Di
their educational work and hospitals. R.
The outbreak of revolution in Wu Y<
Chang can only be taken as an indi- M
cation of the widespread disaffection Je
throughout China. ha

An act of interest just now in South
irolina is that in relation to deducons
from weights or price of cotn
for bagging and ties. The act
ovides that it shall be unlawful for
.y person, firm or corporation enurine
in the business of buying cot
n to deduct any sum for bagging
id ties from the weight or price
any bale of cotton. When the
eight of the bagging and ties does
it exceed 6 per cent of the gross
eight of the bale. When the bagng
and ties weigh more than 6 per
;nt. only the excess may be deleted.
For violation of this act
le offender is guilty of a mlsdeeanor
and subject to a fine of not
ss than $5 and more than $25 or
iprlsonment of not less than ten
lys nor more than thirty days. This
:t does not apply to what is known

ebruary, 1910.
It has gone out over the county once
twice that the Yorkville creamery
as dead; but it wasn't and isn't. From
le sentiment that was most projuneed
among those who attended
ie annual meeting of the stockholders
st Tuesday, the association has no
ea of dying. On the contrary it is
>ing to win. In one of Rudyard Kipng's
stories?"Fore and Aft"?there
related an incident concerning the
rtunes of a green regiment on the
casion of its first experience in bate.
When the fire of the enemy grew
it, the regiment began to recoil, and
itwlthstanding the frantic efforts of
ie officers to beat the demoralized
en back into line, gave way until it
as stopped by a precipitous wall and
iuld give way no further. Then afr
taking considerable punishment,
ie men suddenly began to regain
urage and rushing forward at a
large swept everything out of their
ay like chaff. These creamery stock*
ilders are not up against any wall,
n the contrary they have been holdg
their own pretty well without half
ying. They are the kind of folks
ho are able to do whatever they want
do. The Indications are that they
e now making up their minds that
iey must do, and they are going to
i. Mr. Wilkins has showed them that
can be done, and In the selection of
r. Norris as manager they have made
move which indicates that they realmean
business. Mr. Norris is not
aking any promises. He is of the
nd that says what he means and
eans what he says, and that kind of
;ople are not much on promises; but
iere is no question of the fact that
> knows more about live-stock than
ly other man In York county, and
so he knows about as much about the
ltter business. He is straight,

the creamery will get behind him,
id do their part he will do his, and
e creamery will make good. If he
>es not get the support he is entitled
and has a right to expect, why then
e whole thing will have to fall
rough. But we have no other idea
an that the stockholders and patrons
the creamery are going to make
>od, and win for themselves not only
oflt; but the honor of having estab?hed
the first successful enterprise
the kind in the state.

STILL AT LARGE,
Mllus Partlow, the negro who is
wanted for the recent attempt to
wreck the C. & N.-W.'s train No. 10,
at Crowder*s creek trestle, is still at
large; but the officers have not in any
wise abated their efforts to catch
him. How they will come out remains
for developments. Here is a good picture
of the fugitive.

fl 1 p I I
' V- 1
If Mllua is captured, the understand- i
ing is that there will be plenty of proof 1
to convict him, and it is stated that a i
white man may also be implicated i
with him. The name of the white man <
is known, but the officers have not <
seen proper to give it out. It is said .
that he had been canvassing the coun- i
try surrounding the scene of the crime 1
for some days previous to the day on l
which the attempt was made, selling a 1
patent oil, and it is also said that <
there are two white men who will tea- i
tify that they saw this white man and ]
MIlus on top of the trestle at sunrise i
on the morning the plate was remov- i
ed. 1
The statement has been published !
too, that the lives of Milus's two chil- !
dren, the two who were on the train, 1
are insured in the Metropolitan Life i
Insurance company of New York, for i
$1,000 each, the policies having been \
taken out through the Charlotte branch ]
of that company. The children are 1
aged 14 and 16 respectively.
The ownership of the crowbar, spike
Dar ana monxey wrencn iouna in ,
Partlow's corn crib, has been established
beyond uestion. They were
stolen from the outfit of Messrs. Stewart
& Jones, contractors engaged in
construction work on the Piedmont
and Northern railroad near Lowell, N.
C. Partlow had been working there off
and on for some weeks previous to the
attempt on the train.
So far as The Enuirer has information,
Partlow has cleared out completely;
but now that he is gone it has
developed that he was an unusually
slippery fellow. There are numerous
stories of the many devious ways by
which he has gotten money, and it
seems that one of his favorite methods
has been to mortgage the same piece
of property to two or three different
people at the same time and in different
places. There are mortgages on
record at Gastonia and Yorkville, and
perhaps also at Charlotte.
THE CREAMERY.
The stockholders of the Yorkville
Creamery association held their first
annual meeting last Tuesday, took a
careful inventory of what had been
done during the year, considered some
of the mistakes that had been made,
took note of some of the advantages
that had been derived, and made arrangements
looking to the continuance
of the business in light of the experience
that had been gained.
The board of directors, heretofore
consisting of six members, was increased
to nine members. Mr. W. R.
Carroll resigned from the board about
two months ago, and Messrs. T. M.
Oates and J. D. Smith declining re-election
,the new board was elected as follows:
J. T. Crawford,' S. T. Ferguson,
E. M. Williams, R. G. Ratchford, C. S.
Gordon, C. M. Inman, W. M. Stowe, I
H. Norris, R, E. McFarland,
Mr. O. E. Wilklns, who at the request
of the directors, took the management
two months ago with the understanding
that he would do the best
he could unti* other arrangements
could be made, made quite a comprehensive
report showing the condition
of the business when it came into his
hands and what had been done dur
ing his administration. The report j
showed that the total Indebtedness r
had been reduced about >700, partly c
from profits earned and partly by the
conversion of available assets. His
report Included a thoroughgoing business
statement in which it was made
clear to the stockholders that at the f
present market price of butter, If the
creamery could be assured of the milk
from 200 cows, the association could
not only pay 26 cents a pound for ?
butter fat, against the 22 cents that
has been paid for the last two months;
but could continue to reduce past In- ~
debtedness. His figures also showed e
that with a still larger number of *
cows, up to the capacity of the creamery,
the profits would be greater, and
he urged upon the stockholders that
the one important thing to be done
was the pledging of enough cows to e
ensure a profit to the creamery and at o
the same time a profit for themselves, t
He also stated that while he would be d
glad to do everything in his power to j<
advance the interest of an enterprise j
that he felt sure promises so much for ^
the development of the best interests t
of this whole section, he is convinced j
that the best results can be attained r
only by the constant presence of the 0
manager at the plant, and being una- j
ble to give this presence, he advised s
that the business be placed in the c
hands of a competent man who could d
give it his entire time and attention. v
Aftor mpptlne- nf the stnckhold- -i
ers the directors met and reorganized
by the re-election of Mr. J. T. Craw- ^
ford as president; Mr. R. G. Ratch- j
ford, vice president, and Mr. I. H. Norris
as manager, secretary and treasurer.
Although only about one-third of 1
the stockholders were present at the 8
meeting, they readily pledged as many F
as 106 cows. Bach one said that he ?
intended to milk more cows than he c
was obligating himself to milk; but ,!
was giving in figures conservatively so v
as to be in no possible danger of fall- v
ing down. The absentees included t
some of the largest and most faithful c
patrons of the creamery, and all pres- a
ent seemed to feel certain that the 200 ti
cows asked for by Mr. Wilkins would a
be forthcoming and more. s
Mr. Norris has accepted the man- v
agement of the creamery, not because g
he especially desired the responsibil- si
ity, but because he has been connected a
with the enterprise from the begin- tc
ning, because he h^s fnith jn jt ^nd J'
because he is always to be counted
upon to try to give the best service in
his power in whatever capacity. He ..
says that he will stay with the Job until
he is able to prove that he can or
he cannot, and if it turns out that he
cannot, his co-operation and support tf
will be at the service of his successor. 0(

The Cotton Corner.?The so-called as
'cotton corner" of a year ago is cc
jrought to mind by a brief filed by. er
he government in the United States p
mpreme court. The defendants are **
rames A. Patten, Eugene G. Scales, th
Prank B. Hayne and William P.
Brown, and among the "co-conspirators''
are James W. Cannon of Conjord,
and Lewis W. Parker of Green- Co
rtlle, also "a large number of corporations
of the states of Alabama,
Jeorgia and the Carollnas, engaged ?
n those states In the business of
jplnners of cotton and manufacturirs
of cotton fabrics." We had sup- M
?osed that this case had been wound P*
jp?and gone by default?but it
teems that the government is still vl
lammering on it, though having some at
rouble to make good. The Washngton
correspondent of the New te
fork Journal of Commerce says law ^
jfflcers who drafted the government Rl
irgument have been somewhat trou- w
jled to show that there had been a
jonsplracy, in the technical sense, to R
-alse the price of cotton by means of f*1
a corner. The difficulty attending
:heir efforts is pretty clearly shown tn
In the statement that "it is not neces- 00
iary to determine that the conspiracy
n the present case was efficient and
successful in the highest degree, or Sl
hat the conspirators omitted noth- ..
ng that would aid in the attainment 1<*
>f their unlawful purpose; It is P*
;nough that they conspired to mon
>polize the cotton supply, and that
;he means adopted were suited to the
md in view, and whether they f
stopped where they did from stupid- 10
ty or subtility, they had done that
vhich the law denounced as a crime." )n
the strength of this showing the C.
mpreme court is asked to reverse the n'l
udgment of the lower court. In f&l
ase Attorney General Wlckersham fu
should succeed in getting favorable ro
udgment from the supreme court on hii
his subject, it is admitted that op- of
^rations of the Sherman law and its an
reneral application will be greatly t-x- ?a
ended, since it will be made to ap- an
)Iy practically to any uniform or con- by
;erted buying or selling operation, W
>ven if such operation is not based Hi
lpon an actual control of commodi- Th
ies, which Is the basis that was sup- on

COTTON TOO LOW.
fatson Says Staple ia Worth 14 to 15
Conta a Pound.
"There is no doubt in my mind that
le world today is demanding 16,000,)0
bales of cotton, and there is equal
no doubt in my mind that the cot>n
is worth on the market, In strict
ccord with the law of supply and deland,
from 14 to 15 cents," is the
:atement made by E. J. Watson, head
f the permanent cotton congress of
>e south. In a letter to C. S. Barrett,
le president of the National Farm's'
union. Mr. Watson states that he
as heard within the last twenty-foui>-__^?
ours that the cotton manufacturers
re of the opinion that the present
rice is detrimental to the textile
uslness, in that it creates an unstale
cloth market. In his letter Comilssloner
Watson states that the
lovement to hold cotton for a higher
rice has been effective in South Carlina.
The letter of Commissioner Watson
> President Barrett follows:
"I have been desirous of writing you
/er since I left you on the train comig
from Montgomery, but unforinately,
have been absent from the
ty almost continuously.
"So far as this state is concerned,
jr movement is well in hand, and we
ave bankers and business men coperating
to the fullest extent. Sena>r
Smith has been lending his aid
ithout reserve, and I have Just writsn
him today in regard to the suggeson
as to a whirlwind campaign
irough the cotton belt states. I am
ot in the least dlssappolnted in the
resent situation. Cotton simply
pened three weeks earlier than has
/er been known throughout the belt,
ad the bears would have been giganc
fools not to take advantage of it.
he colossal fools of the age have
sen our producers, who have not hesated
to rush their cotton to market,
/Idently with the idea that it was
ping lower and lower, and that they
jght to get the best they could. I
in hardly blame them, but they have
mply committed suicide.
"We have the holding movement
ell in hand in this state, and people
re even taking their furniture out
r rooms in their homes in order to
:ore cotton that has been picked but
as not been sent to the gin. If all the
ther states had been as active, we
ould not see 9?-cent cotton now.
"This letter to you is to ask your
Jvice, in the first place, as to whether
to call another meeting in Atlanta,
>r some of the southern governors
?m to have waked up a little bit, and
ish to start a forensic movement at
lis late day. I wish, further, to ask
pu whether or not anything has been
pcomplished definitely in regard to
te French-English loan concerning
hich you were quoted In the press,
id then I wish to ask your advice as
i whether or not our national com
imee snuuia proceea wun me wnirilnd
campaign through the cotton
ilt states, upon which we contemated
inviting Senators E. D. Smith
id John Sharp Williams to accominy
us.
"There is no doubt In my mind
tat the world today Is demanding 16,10,000
bales of cotton, and there is
lually no doubt In my mind that the
>tton Is worth on the markt, In strict
:cord with the law of supply and deand,
from 14 to 16 cents, and If
lere ever was a time when your orinlzatlon
and the organization com>sed
of your people and my people
id the bankers of the south should
md themselves together and act as
le man for the common weal, it does
em to me that this Is the time.
"Within the last twenty-four hours
have been told by cotton manufacirers
that the present price for cotn
is detrimental to their business,
that It Is creating an unstable cloth
arket, and only last night I heard

of the south state positively
at he was willing to lend his aid to
