last year to the effect that he had
cast reflections on the good name ol
one of York's beloved daughters and
caused her to be ejected from a high
i and important position in the ser'
vice of the state. His enemies had
told this story in all parts of South
Carolina, and adding their own selfish
desires to the story, they had said:
"The voters of York county are going
to repudiate Blease for this offense.
and when we turn him out of
office we are going to put this lady
back into the position he put her out
of." They did succeed in defeating
Blease with their lies, and they did
succeed in getting in power; but they
did neither with the vote of York
county, and when they had the opportunity
to put this most estimable lady
back into the position that they were
instrumental in taking away from
her. did they do it? Nothing of the
kind. They put in her place a Yankee
woman from the north.
"I am especially honored at being
the last speaker on this programme
today, and I feel some encouragement
too, because I am reminded of
a passage of Scripture which says,
'The first shall be last and the last
shall be first,' and this leads me to
the idea that maybe it will again
come my time to be first

Neil-Brown.
Miss Margaret L. Neil and Mr. William
P. Brown were married at the
Presbyterian manse in Yorkvllle, on
Wednesday afternoon, Rev. Dr. E. E.
Gillespie officiating. Only a few close
friends of the young people witnessed
the ceremony. Mrs. Brown is the
daughter of Mr. Newton Neil of Yorkville
No. 5, and is well known to a
wide circle of friends. Mr. Brown is
a son of Mr. W. G. Brown of the Cotton
Belt section, and is also popular
with numerous friends. Mr. and Mrs.
Brown will reside in the Cotton Belt
neighborhood.
A Progressive School District.
Patrons of Oak Ridge school, in
District No. 29, have presented the
county board of education with a petition
asking that the district be allowed
to vote on the question of a
special levy of 8 mills. The board
has granted the petition and the matter
will be decided at an early date.
There is no doubt of the measure carlying.
When it has been enacted Oak
Ridge will have the distinction of having
a greater special school levy than
any other district in the county. At
present Yorkville school district holds
the banner in this regard, the district
carrying a special 6 mill levyBooze
Wagon Got Away.
Although they continued the chase
practically all of last Tuesday, the
posse in pursuit of wagon No. 1, carrying
a portion of a still which had
been discovered passing through Hickory
Grove, mention of which was
made in Tuesday's Enquirer, failed to
intercept the wagon and gave up the
, pursuit. Officers as yet have no clue
as to the place from which the still
was being moved. A negro from
Cherokee Falls appeared in Hickory
Grove Wednesday and claimed the
two mules captured by Officer Lattimore
Tuesday, as his property, saying
that the team had been stolen from
him.

Fort Mill Store Robbed.
t Fort Mill Times: The dry goods
f store of the Mills & Young company,
1 on Main street was entered and robbed
' sometime during Tuesday night of a
! quantity of shoes, clothing and a num
ber of ladies' ready-made skirts. Ent
trance to the building was made
through a scuttle hole, in the roof of
! the building, which had been left open
Tuesday evening, while the carpenters
were at work on the building. The
' robbery is considered one of the bold
est yet committed in the town. Two
young men were occupying a bedroom
in the adjoining building and just to
' the rear of the Mills & Young store
3 stands the Thompson hotel. An overI
coat taken from the store was found
i Wednesday morning in the street in
Whiteville park, and this fact gives
t rise to the belief that the thieves left
> town in a northernly direction. Several
' skirts that had been left on the top of
) the store building by the thieves were
? also recovered. Up to Wednesday
evening no clue had been found as to
i who committed the theft.
1 Not Opposed to Prohibition.
I In a conversation with the reporter
r at Filbert yesterday, former Governor
Blease said that he is not in the least
- opposed to the prohibition movement
1 in South Carolina. "On the contrary,"
he said, "I am about ready to vote for
? prohibition. The dispensary system
? where it exists, is living on rebates,
; and in most cases the rebates demandi
ed are so heavy as to make it impossl;
ble to give the public even a fairly
1 honest grade of whisky. I am inclined
3 to think that the best thing to be done
is to wipe out the whole business. But
i in this connection. I desire to say that
> I have some doubts as to the constitu?
tionality of this proposed referendum.
There is no question of the fact that
> the general assembly has the power to
1 enact prohibition if it sees proper; but
- as to whether it can delegate that
3 power to the people is doubtful, and it
1 might be wise to get up a friendly test
i case to enable the courts to decide. I
i would not care to do it for the reason
that I might invite a misunderstand
Referring to the tax commissior
controversy, the speaker siiid that the
commission was composed of th?
shrewdest politicians in the state, anc
the game they were trying to pla>
was merely an old dodge. The commission
will raise the taxes on rail
roads, banks and cotton mills, anc
then it will raise taxes on the farmers.
Iarter while the taxes on the
farmers are allowed to remain the
same, they will be reduced on the
railroad, banks and cotton mills or
the ground that they are* "gains
broke." They ought to go broke, h<
said; but I'll tell you more about this
at another time.
"I was in hopes Senator Tillmar
would be here today, because I have
some things I want to say to his face
that I would not say behind his back
It would give me much pleasure t?
say these things right here in the
presence of you people." The speak
er paid a tribute to Tillman for hi!
pioneer work in breaking up the ok
oligarchy and the Columbia rins
crowd: but he said the work had to la
done all over again.

you might very well ask them why
they don't do a little something, for
if they have ever done anything worth
while I have not heard of It. [Applause.]
It Is all right to talk about government
controlled warehouses. I
signed the bill creating the state warehouse
system because I believed It
was a good thing; but let's not have
any Federal control if we can help
it. We have a so-called Democratic
government at Washington now; but
we have no guarantee as to how long
the Federal government is going to
be friendly to the south, and howwould
we feel with a Federal warehouse
system under the management
of a nigger warehouseman and nigger
graders?
a "X always knew that Wilson had
some kind of a dog in him; but until
Mr. Lever gave us that descriptidn a
while ago, I did not know that it was
'bull.' I guess Mr. Lever is about
right about it."
If America wants to get into war
with anybody, she had better go after
her real enemy, England, and let
Germany alone. What have got
against Germany anyhow? Germany
did right when she sunk that boat. I
would have sunk it. If they had been
coming after you with a load of ammunition
to kill you with, wouldn't
you have sunk 'em? You bet you
would.
"I'll tell you one thing. If the
United States gets into war with Germany,
she will know that she has a
war on her hands! You remember
that, will you?
"The administration at Washington
is not Democratic. It is not a
government of the people, and Wilson
is no friend of the south. He Is little
more than an agent of England and
a representative of the money interest
of America, who does not do anything
until after he gets instructions
from J. Pierpont Morgan. If he had
any part of the Democracy of Thomas
Jefferson in his make-up, he would
say to England: "Damn you. If you
don't stop taking our cotton we will
stop you!"
"Lots of them," said the ex-governor,
"have been fighting the warehouse
bill over the shoulders of McLaurin.
They claim the idea is good; but that
McLaurin only wants office and they
don't want him. Now that's a come-off,
ain't it? If it is McLaurin they object
to, what do they want to kill the
warehouse system for? Why don't
they elect a commissioner that will
please 'em and help improve the system?
I am not sure they are honest
about this thing. But McLaurin did
not elect himself. The legislature did
it without even asking him. When it
looked as if at last this bill was going
to pass, McLaurin came into my office
and asked me who I thought was the
right man for commissioner. I told
him I did not know. I have since
been surprised at myself because it
did not occur to me to tell him that
by all means he was the man; but I
did not. I did not think of it until
Representative Sapp of Lancaster,
nominated him and the legislature
elected him. But I do know that he
never sought the office. But I suspect
some of these fellows don't like McLaurin
any better than they do the
warehouse system and they don't like
the warehouse system any better than
they do McLaurin.
The speaker paid his respects to the
newspapers, especially the dailies.
He alleged that some of them had
lied upon him outrageously and had
refused to print corrections even
when he had offered to pay.
Referring back to the campaign of
last year, the speaker said that his enemies
had undertaken to promise that
if Smith was elected the south would
get fifteen cents for cotton. They
claimed that McAdoo had a billion
dollars he was going to put into the
south in the event of Smith's election,
and what did he do with it? Sent
some of it to Europe to bring home
those globe-trotters. But you will not
get Smith's fifteen cents cotton nor
McLaurin's fifteen cents cotton until
your congressmen do something. And
what are they doing? Nothing. They
are so interested in the little bit of
patronage Wilson is holding over
them, that they are not even representing
you. For a little postoffice or
something, the president can make
them do anything. That is why they
have not helped to protect your interests.
What you want to do Is to
assemble at your club meetings and
at your courthouses, and pass resolutions
demanding that your congressmen
get busy. That will make them
trot. [Cheers.] And until you do
more in this way they are not going
to do anything but lie around the pie
counter waiting for little postofflces.
"They tell you to diversify your
crops," said the speaker, "but suppose
you make all kinds of crops, how
are you going to sell them without a
market?"
Getting back to the financial situation
in the south, the former .governor
said that if certain people now had
in their pockets all the money they
had spent in 1910-11-12 trying to beat
him, there would not be so many ol
them now going into bankruptcy, and
if Lewis Parker had that 110,000 Ik
gave Smith last year to beat me with,
he would not now be begging bread
in Greenville. But all of them are
paying up. The Lord does not allow
them to do things like that withoul
taking toll. Only last week one ot
the Greenville mill presidents, broken
in health, went to his mountain home
to recuperate, and I can imagine the
good Lord, knowing his record, says
"All right, old fellow, you are aboui
as near heaven as you will ever get.'
He went on to say that many of the
mill presidents had gotten rich stealing
from their operatives?"doekin*
is stealing" he said, and there were
cheers. But I will tell you more
about this at another time, the speaker
promised.
1 am talking plain to you, said the
speaker. My political ambition was
completely gratified when I servec
two terms as governor. That was the
ambition of my life. I shall never become
a candidate again, and I'll nol
run for office again, except it be te

? told them to take charge of their club
organizations. You had a majority

i Upon the conclusion of this speech
a large portion of the crowd began to
leave the grounds: but some few re:
mained to hear Rev. B. L<acey Holt,
pastor of the Spurgeon Memorial
church at Norfolk, Va_, on the question
of prohibition. He made quite
an able address; but did not get very
close attention, for the reason that
the audience was now pretty well
worn out and about ready to start for
home.

The Enquirer, and finding it convenient
this year I decided to attend. I
want to say I am glad I came. In all
my experience I have never seen such
a tremendous crowd of people at such 9.
a gathering, and I have been particularly
impressed with their intelligent,
comfortable and well-to-do appearance.
I have met quite a number
of of your people and found them ^
remarkably well Informed on every ;
subject that came up for discussion.
You have a fine set of people, both
men and women, as fine as I ever
saw, and also I hope I give no offense
when I say that I never before saw
such a large crowd in which there
was so little evidence of liquor." The
doctor also remarked the delightful
hospitality of the entertainment committee
that took him in charge on his
arrival, and which made him feel at
home throughout the day.

ance. The spring ana pasture in
which the entertainment was held,
proved to be an ideal place for the
purpose, it being cool and pleasant.
A brilliant light was cast over the po

BETHESDA ROADS. Township
Supervisor Makes a Statement
of Situation. 11
Editor Yorkvllle Enquirer: af
The grand jury having called my
attention to a representation it has
received from certain citizens of Bethesda
township, relative to the keeping
up of the sand and clay road from
the corporate limits of McConnells- _
ville to the York township line, I
shall appreciate it if you will allow p
me sufficient space in which to make ,
a brief statement, which I think may th
be of interest to the public.
According to the representation to
the grand jury, practically nothing
has been done on this road for two if
years or more, and there is a request
that some action be taken. b
For the benefit of those who are ,
not informed, and in order to keep the
record straight, I beg leave to submit ?
an account of expenditures from the
taxes of 1913-14, not including the
labor that was performed in lieu of ?
the payment of road tax.

road in 1913: be

This gives an aggregate of $27.18 a

I did not have the money, and of ?

Whisky and the Established Church. ^
?Recently the Yorkville Enquirer ^
said that there was an alliance between
the whisky interests of Englar'* 1
and the Established church. This sf
Cfl
statement was called in question and ^
in confirmation of its assertion The
Enquirer quotes the following from ?
Ernest Gordon's Anti-alcohol Movement
in Europe: r\
"Lord Roseberry remarked, many pj
years ago, that 'Unless the nation mas- A
icrs wit; urniiv interest., me uiiuh intercst
would master the nation.' He w
did not explain as he could easily have
done, that the great difiiculty in b,
bringing the drink interest to its knees
in England as elsewhere in Europe,
lies in the fact of its covert alliance _
with other great powers of social order?the
feudal aristocracy and modera
capitalism. And to this triple al- E
lianee a fouith element is attached in I\
more or less sympathetic correlation
?the clericals of the state churches.
Twelve hundred and tifty Anglician w
clergymen, for example, are themselves
holders of brewery stock; and ?
four hundred and seventy-two women ?
in English rectories?wives and sis- p
ters of the clergy?possess similar _
properties. These holdings are of a .>
value of eight million dollars. Of the
Anglician clergy in London every
tenth is a shareholder in breweries.
'Prohibition has no right to prohibit,' ,
insists the Bishop of Chester.'" 0,
The Enquirer also gives a number
of citations to show that the Established
church through its bishops in
the house of lords, has uniformly Si
stood for the whisky interests. To pi
bring out these facts ought not to be ni
considered a reflection on the Episco- f?
pal church in this country. But these "I
facts cannot be denied. Whisky has H
a fearful hold on the English church i'?':
and the. nation is paying the price.?

j DO TOU NEED A WELL? I f
\OME ARE WISE
PREVIOUS to five years ago it
rus rarely my privilege to write the
ppllcation of a young man or boy for
MUTUAL BENEFIT POLICY who
'as less than 25 years of age. Durlg
the past 15 months I have written
larger number of applications of
ges indicated than in any similar pelod
during the 16 years I have repjsented
the company and I am hopejl
that the time is not as far off as
has been that the majority of young
ten will realize that THEIR Interests
emand that the sooner they insure
HEIR lives the BETTER. The Mulal
Benefit's age limits are from 15
> 70 years and there are few, if any,
sung men who could not carry from
ne to five thousand dollars Insurance
they tried, and there is no doubt of
le fact that they WOULD TRY if
>ey knew as well what IS AHEAD of
tern as thousands of men from 40 to
) years of age who are applying for
tsurance every year, know what is
EHIND them. The young man has
verything to Gain and nothing to
se by insuring NOW. The parents
ho urge their sons to insure just as
ton as they reach the insurable age,
id even help them to pay the preiums,
if necessary, will be doing
lem a kindness which will be appreated
in after years.
