EMERGENCY TAX EXTENDED Houm Settled the Matter Yesterday w/r With Joint Resolution. The house last night, by a vote of 205 to 189 passed the joint resolution extending the emergency revenue tax ^ until December 31, 1916. The senate is expected to take like action in a ^ day or two. The law is expected by administra tlon leaders 10 Dring revenue imo ine treasury at the rate of $82,000,000 a year. The Republicans, voting solidly against the resolution, were joined by five Progressives and five Democrats ?Callaway, Texas; Hilliard and Keating, Colorado; Buchanan, Illinois, and Wingo, Arkansas. Several proposed amendments to shorten the period of extension were voted down. Representative Kitchin of North Carolina, in his first speech as majority leader, told the house that unless the law was extended the treasury L would face a deficit of more than $81, 000,000 at the end of the next fiscal year. "We Democrats know that no tax popular in time of peace," he said, ' ?1)01 we would be unworthy of the record of the Democrats under the administration and this congress if we did not have the courage and patriotism to arrange sufficient revenues to meet the government's absolute necessities." Mr. Kitchin strongly defended the present tariff law, declaring it was in no respect responsible for the necessity of continuing the emergency revenue law. "From the time the Underwood bill went into effect until the opening of the European war," he said, "we raised $20,000,000 more than was iaised in the same interval under the Payne-Aldrich act. "There is not a thoughtful man, there is not a student of revenue matm ters who will be honest with himself p and make an investigation, who will i not come to the conclusion that if the Payne-Aldrich act had been on the ^ statute books, we would have had to raise many millions of dollars more ) than we have got to raise now and _ that we would have had many million gL dollars more of deficit than we have now." w Mr. Kitchin gave many figures in ^ support of his argument. W Minority Leader Mann urged that extention for a shorter period was preferable and former Speaker Cannon suggested an issue of Panama canal bonds to meet the deficit It is expected that a general programme of revenue legislation which may involve revision of the emergency tax law, will be worked out by Democratic leaders soon after the holiday recess, which probably will begin Saturday. The senate finance committee on yesterday authorized Chairman Simmons to report the house resolution extending the emergency war tax. Republican members of the committee sought to have it extended only until June 30, 1916, but were outvoted. They will try to amend it in the senate. CLOVER CULLINGS Work on Mill to Begin Soon?Morchants Ready for Holiday Trade? ^ Annual Meeting of Masons Tonight ?School Has Basketball Team? Much Cotton Seed Meal Sold?The ^ Liquor Situation Unchanged?Other Matters. Corre<jK rnJeace The Yorkvllle Enquirer Clover, December 15.?Work on the construction of Clover's new (200,000 cotton mill will begin early in January it has been learned here. While details are not available, it is likely that a large number of carpenters will be given employment in connection with the building of the new mill, which it is heliavfvi will be a err eat addition to the future growth and progress of the town. Clover merchants have on hand large stocks of holiday goods and most of them are disposing of their Christmas offerings quite readily. Up to this time, some of the merchants say, their business is 100 per cent better than up to the corresponding date last year. Alpine Lodge, No. 208, A. F. M., it is understood, will hold its annual meeting Friday night, at which time officers who will serve next year will be elected. A banquet will be held in connection with the meeting. The Clover High school has a basketball team and is anxious to secure games with other high school teams. The following boys compose A the team: Martin Jackson, Frank McElwee, Mack Knox, Ike Forbes, Kelly Henry, Joe Bamett. Attorney General Peeples' ruling to the contrary notwithstanding, Judge Rice's version of the law in saying \ that the South Carolina liquor law ^ t was made for South Carolinians and P North Carolinians can't have a look in still holds good. Several Gaston county folks have come to Clover after their liquor since reading the attorney general's view of the matter, but after looking over the situation, they decided they didn't want their liquor badly enough to be placed under a onn K/\nH ond thon nav thft fepji nf a fAVV I/VIIU HUtU V**VU - ?? lawyer to bring the matter to the attention of the supreme court, to which tribunal it would have to be referred for final settlement. It is said that one North Carolinian came to Clover the other day and got his package of liquor out of the express office but the officers hearing of his action got after him so hard that he was glad to drop ^ his package and hike back from whence he came. Magistrate Quinn said today that he was watching the f situation closely and intended to follow the instructions of Judge Rice in the matter. There are some 25 or 30 packages of liquor in the express office here which will be sent back to the liquor houses from whence it came. There was a large audience at the ?. opera house last evening to hear the 'v addresses of Rev. Dr. Geo. W. Morrow and Dr. Jno. G. Woolly, representatives of the National Anti-Saloon league. The Clover High school will suspend for the Christmas holidays on next Wednesday, December 23. Misses Daisy and Mary Glenn of Clover No. 2, have moved to Clover. Mr. R. L. Whisonant has bought the store of Mr. W. H. Hagans. Dr. Edward Duff of Baltimore. Md.. is spending some time with his brother, Mr. J. D. Duff. here. Mr. Zeb Niell, who has been working for the Southern PoWer company at Pelzer, S. C., has returned to his ^ . home here. ^ Mrs. C. H. Ferguson of Clover, was a visitor in Gastonia today. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Page, M. T. Williams and Misses Annie Williams and Bess Adams went to Charlotte Sat\ urday night to see the play, "Everywoman.'' ' Clover young people who are students at the various schools and colleges in this and other states, are ex% pected to return to their homes here this week and next to spend the Christmas holidays. A large number of members of the Clover council, Jr. O. U. A. M., will go to Bowling Green Saturday on account of the Bible and flag presentation exercises which will be held at the Bowling Green school under the auspices of the Clover council. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS ^ ? The supreme court last night m handed down a decision in which it ^ upheld the act creating the state tax commission. The opinion was written by Associate Justice Frazier and concurred in by Chief Justice Gary and Associate Justice Hydrick. Associate Justice Gage dissented. The opinion overrules Associate Jus e Watts, f who originally granted the relief asked for by the banks. The case being carried on appeal to the supreme ^ court by Assistant Attorney General Dominick. ? Greenville News, Tuesday: Sher/ iff Rector ejected three families of * strikers from the Judson mill houses Tuesday, after receiving a telegram from Governor Manning advising that Aft "jy if the orders for ejection were in ac* cordance with the law, there was no course open except to comply with that law. No disorder attended the eviction of the three families. The heads of five other families have signed papers agreeing to move voluntarily within a few days. The sherifT yet holds a writ of ejection against one striker, which writ will probably be served at once. Nine writs were given to the sheriff on last Friday. Orders for ejectment will be issued against the remaining strikers as soon as expedient. The sheriff stated last night that the task of putting the families out of their houses was the most disagreeable he has met with since holding office; not because of resistance, but because of the fact it was necessary for him to put the people and their belongings into the streets. The sheriff had with him his chief deputy, H. D. Capel, Deputy George King and Special Deputy Jake Gosnell. W. D. Pitts was the first man ejected. The other two men against whom the writs were enforced were J. W. Thomas and a Mr. Murphy. Sheriff Rector stated that he gave ten dollars to each of the seven families yesterday, W. D. Pitts declining to accept the money. He offered to take one woman to his house to stay until she could secure a new home, but she declined. The strikers decline to accept the money for transportation and moving expenses offered them as a loan by President B. E. Greer. They also decline his good offices in efforts to secure work for them, although Mr. Greer had given to the sheriff a list of positions which the ejected families could secure. ? Monroe, N. C., December 15: The story has just leaked out on four Monroe sportsmen, G. M. Re&sley, a Monroe newspaper man, and T. T. Caphart, Jeff Sewell and T. P. Sale, Seaboard conductors between this place and Atlanta, about getting "nabbed" by the game warden in South Carolina several days ago. The bunch came back with about 100 birds in all, estimated to have already cost them about $2 each, with the probability of more cost to be added on later. It happened this way: Jim Johnson, a prominent farmer, merchant, lumberman and sportsman of Chappels, S. C., invited the above named gentlemen to come down to his place for a week's hunt. Of course they accepted, and, thinking that as they were guests of a land owner they were immune from the special nonresident tax of $15, all four of the Monroe gentlemen neglected to secure the same. They had spent about three blissful days in the pursuit of quail, when suddenly one afternoon, who slipped upon them but the chief game warden of the state of South Carolina. It was no local rural policeman or county warden, but the head knocker of the department. He immediately demanded $15 from each of the aforesaid sports. But this didn't satisfy him, for after the hunters had began consoling themselves that the fine was better than the jail, the warden turned around once more, to the sorrow of the victims, and demanded a $500 bond from each to insure their appearance at the next term of court, to be held some time later in the county in which they were caught. As a minimum penalty for the above violation of the South Carolina laws is a $100 fine, one can bet his bottom dollar that these Monroe sportsmen saw ' red.'* It was evident that the hunters found hunting in South Carolina a nervous affair with such overhead expense hanging over their heads, for they all returned several days sooner than expected with the excuse that "birds were scarce." They tried to keep their little secret but it was too much. ' MERE-MENTION Capt.
