BRITISH WAR BILL
-r Debt at Close of Year Amounting to
Eleven Billion Dollars.
"* The greatest war budget In the
world's history was introduced in the
house of commons last Tuesday by
Reginald McKenna, chancellor of the
exchequer, as another step toward
g financing the war, which now is costing
Great Britain $25,000,000 daily.
Mr. McKenna, in his budget speech
estimated that tne government s revenue
for the current year would be
$1,360,000,000, that the expenditures
would reach ?1,590,000,000, and that
the dead weight of debt at the close of
the financial'year would be ?2,200,000,000.
New military requirements and
changed methods of warfare have created
over-night additional expenditures
which had not been reckoned
with, even in the comparatively recent
estimates of David Lloyd-George,
munitions minister, necessitating in
this budget, the third since the butbreak
of hostilities, the most drastic
%and far-reaching taxes in the history
of the country, and involving even
trade.
Hereafter automobiles, bicycles,
moving picture dims, clocks, watches,
musical instruments, plate glass and
hats will pay a tax of 33 1-3 per cent
ad valorem, though, as Mr. McKenna
A explained, the objects of such taxation
are "purely temporary and without
regard to a permanent efTect on trade,"
being primarily designed to discourage
imports and remedy the foreign exchange
situation.
Spirits and beer, which have been
the subject of so much agitation, remained
untouched. The principal blow
fell on Incomes, the existing tax on incomes
not only being jumped 40 per
cent, but its scope widened so as to
catch even workingmen earning as
little as $14 weekly.
The very wealthy mus' contribute
to the government more than onethird
of their revenue.
The one-cent mail will be abolished
entirely, and the weight heretofore
4 carried in the mails for two cents will
be reduced. The rate on telegrams,
^ which Is twelve cents for twelve words
is Increased to eighteen cents, and
there is aJso to be a proportionate increase
in telephone charges.

* ? John R. Alexander, a well known
business man of Chester, died in that
town Wednesday night, aged 53 years.
? Robert S. McCombs, a young white
man, lost his right arm while working
at a molasses mill in Abbeville Wednesday
morning.
? According to a dispatch from
Swansea, Ryan Rcwell, son of John
Rowell, who lives near Swansea, picked
601 pounds of cotton last Tuesday.
? The store of S. M. Davis and the
postoftlce at Eulonia in Marion county,
were broken open and robbed
on Monday night, the robbers securing
goods and money valued at several
hundred dollars.
? The new primary building at Cedar
Springs Institute for the Deaf,
Dumb and Blind, which is located
near Spartanburg, has been completed
and put in service. The building cost
350,000.
? Newberry, September 22: News
came from Goldviile this morning of
an accident that happened there yesterday
afternoon at 5.30 o'clock, when
JHR Mrs. L. W. C. Blalock. driving an automobile,
ran over Clarke White near
the cotton mill there, so injuring Mr.
White that he died two hours later.
The car got beyond the control of the
driver, who had not had much experi0>
ence. She is greatly grieved over the
accident, and her sister, Mrs. J. R.
Green, left here by the first train for
Goldville to be with. her.
? Beaufort, September 22: At council
meeting Monday night, Mayor Danner
and Councilman Richardson locked
horns over employment of counsel In
the bank back tax case to be heard in
December in the circuit court. The
mayor insisted on the city's case being
left in .the hands of the city attorney/
Mr. Talbird. Mr. Richardson voted to1
allow the city treasurer to employ
special counsel on the ground that Mr.
Talbird at the hearing before Judge
Rice at Aiken had taken the part of
the tax dodgers and did not appear
at all at the hearing before Judge
Shipp at Florence, though instructed
by the council to do so. He contended
that the city would have lost both
cases if the treasurer had not sent Attorney
George W. Beckett to represent
him and that at Aiken Mr. Talbird
contended that Mr. Beckett
should not be heard at all and went
on to present arguments why the tax
should not be collected. Councilman
Marscher, cashier of the bank in question,
took no part in this discussion,
havine been enioined bv Judtre Rice at
? Aiken from further interference in the
effort to collect this tax. The mayor's
^ vote defeated the effort to give the
council's sanction to allowing the
treasurer to employ his own counsel.
? Columbia State, Friday: Governor
Manning announced yesterday that he
^ would not interfere with the judgment
of the court in the cases of the state
vs. Meek Griffin, Tom Griffin, John
Crosby and Nelson Brice, four negroes
sentenced to be electrocuted for murder,
from Chester county. The governor
feels that the verdict of the
jury in the cases should not be overruled.
The board of pardons heard
this case at its meeting on September
8, and unanimously recommended that
there be no interference with the
judgment of the court. These negroes
were sentenced to be electrocuted on
September 3, but on August 13, the
governor, on account of representations
made to him that there would be
presented to the board of pardons
good reasons for commuting the sentences
of the negroes to life imprisonment,
granted a reprieve staying the
execution until September 29, in order
that the matter might be presented to
the board of pardons at its meeting on
* September 8. This action of the governor
means that the negroes will be
electrocuted on next Wednesday.
Deposits Grow by Millions.?The
statements by the national banks in
New York city in response to the call
* of the comptroller of the currency for
the condition of the national banks of
the country on September 2, 1915,
show an unusually large increase in
deposits over June 23, 1915, the date
of the previous call.
The largest gain was made by the
National Bank of Commerce which in
the interval between the two calls increased
its deposits $53,192,000, bringing
them up to $238,271,000. This
bank is now second in the list of the
national banks reporting deposits,
taking the place of the Continental
and Commercial bank of Chicago,
which held second place for some
time.
Other institutions reporting large
increases were:
^ National City bank, $32,569,000.
Mechanics and Mer.als, $30,937,000.
Phnup Vntiftniil f*>K HHA
Hanover National. $27,866,000.
When compared v/ith the statements
of September 12, 1914, however,
the figures are more striking. The
two statements show that in the
^ period of not quite one year the National
City bank gained $146,094,000.
The next in order came Chase National,
with a gain of $76,132,000;
National Bank of Commerce, $69,205,000;
Hanover National, $65,223,000;
Continental and Commercial of Chicago.
$61,175,000, and Mechanics and
Metals, $61,081,000.?New York Sun.
? President Wilson and former Secretary
Bryan met at the White House
last Wednesday, for the first time
since the latter resigned from the
. cabinet three months ago. Mr. Bryan
sought the interview "to pay respects."
For nearly an hour the two were together
in the Green room and they
parted smiling. What the president
had said, Mr. Bryan declined to reveal,
nor would he intimate what subject
he himself had broached. The White
' House gave out no information beyond
the statement that there had been a
"general talk" pleasant and cordial.
From the fact that Mr. Bryan is con4";?
templating a trip to Europe in the interest
of peace and from the opposition
he has already expressed to large
expenditures for national defenses, official
Washington assumed that he had
touched on both subjects in his conversation
with the president. It is
understood, however, that the president
is not disposed to approve or disapprove
the idea of the trip to Eu
rope, and that he had not yet formed
his own conclusions as to the national
defense programme. Mr. Bryan told
friends later that he himself was undecided
as to whether or not he would
go to Europe, and that he had speaking
engagements up to November , 1,
so that it was unlikely that he would
reach a decision before then. He left
today to continue his lecturing for
peace and will also make a number
of speeches on national defense. Mr.
Bryan's visit to the White House attracted
wide attention. In an electric
automobile, which he drove himself.
he appeared at noon. A few
minutes before. Secretary uanieis naai
presented Henry Ford, the automobile
manufacturer, to the president. Later I
in the day Mr. Ford and Mr. Bryan
conferred in the latter's home concerning
the forwarding of the peace
movement against national preparedness.
? Ott Johnson, a farmer residing on
T. F. Anderson's place near Reidsville,
Spartanburg county, killed himself as
he sat in the door of his home late
Wednesday by discharging a doublebarrelled
shotgun into his forehead.
Johnson is said to have been ill for
some time and despondent. He was 38
years of age and is survived by a widow
and two daughters. Coroner Turner
of Spartanburg county, said that
this was the third inquest he had held
in the Johnson family within the last
year and a half. During the past summer
George Johnson, a brother of the
man who ended his life Wednesday,
accidentally killed his infant daughr
ter when a whip he was chastising an
older child with flew out of his hand.
More than a year ago a sister ended
her life.

ic Inet the remprfv fnr vruir children's

is a quick enemy of cold conditions.
Its qualities loosen the mucous in the
throat, soothe the lungs and open up
the air passages. The combination of
honey, soothing and pleasant, with the
loosening pine quality makes this an

Warehoused Cotton
As Security.
The Idea is prevalent that our farmers,
tc- secure the Best Price for their
Cotton, must market it gradually. The
Farmers and the Public Generally
MUST KNOW that their Banks CAN
and WILL HELP THEM. The mere
knowledge of this fact, it is suggested,
may be effective in sustaining the
price of cotton.
To obtain special consideration in
ine interest nate, it is requireu mat
Loans be based upon
INSURED. WAREHOUSED COTTON.
Along this line. The BANK OF
CLOVER will consider as favorable
security Receipts issued by the Bowling
Green and Filbert Warehouses,
and offer our services to ANY OF
OUR CUSTOMERS who may need
any assistance in this manner of marketing

The AGENT of
ANOTHER Company
But Who Carries Insurance On His
Own Life In the Mutual Benefit,
Says:?
"If the average business man wore in
position to personally observe the
extraordinary liberality of the Mutual
Benefit in the treatment of its
policyholders, the claims It pays
(which no other company would
pay), and the privileges it confers
(which no other company ever conferred),
I repeat, if the average business
man had personal knowledge
of these facts, you could sell all the
insurance you wanted without a
sales force."
While the agent above quoted states
an exact truth, it Is also true that the
"average business man," as well as all
other kinds, leap before they look and
buys life insurance from the agent
who first presents the matter to them
or for personal reasons rather than
taking the trouble to Geo whether or
not all companies are "about the
same." I am prepared to prove all the
companies doing business in this section
are "about the same," except the
Mutual Benefit, and that it is in a class
by itself. Look Before You Leap.
SAM M. GRIST. Special Agent.
LIFE
IT CAN BE A SUCCESS OR A FAILURE.
WHICH WILL IT BE WITH
YOU? ? ? 7 ? ? ? ? ?
Look at the men who are successful
In the eyes of the world. Ninety-nine
out of every hundred started a Bank
Account when they were young?and
tuck to it.
And now, look at the failures. Very
few of them have a Bank account now.
Not speaking of when they were young.
Perhaps you think you have not
enough money to start an account.
Haven't you a dollar? That's all It takes
at THIS BANK.
Just try It for a year or six months.
If you do not wish to continue It you
have lost nothing by the trial.
