Scraps and ?atts. J Dogs and other pets which have \v served as mascots for American units n: are not to be cast adrift when the p units are demobili2ed. An order to _ this effect has been formally issued by Gen. Marshal, chief of staff. The | war department order known as cir- * culation No. 12, bearing date of Jan. 10 said: "It has been brought to the E attention of the war department that troop units, which have dogs or other * - "o no moorntM pei animtus in men mit , have abandoned them upon demobili- I zation and that these animals are now I outcasts and wanderers. Units should | be Instructed to make proper dispos- ? itlon of such animals in accordance S with the weli known sentiment of the | societies of the prevention of cruelty J to animals, prior to the demobilization J of the unit." ; ? The Krupp plant at Essen is now working tor the United States government. The task undertaken by Krupp consists of making parts for 72 incomplete cannon, rejected by the American authorities as part of the war material offered by the Germans under the b terms of the armistice. The German it commission, which has been in Berlin considering the question of the heavy guns turned back by the American authorities, has arrived at Coblenz and c . report that 80 cannon have been ship- 1 ped to the headquarters of the Ameri- a can army of occupation to replace big guns which failed to meet requirements. With the delivery of the parts , for the 72 cannon and the arrival of * the other 80, the delivery of heavy ar tlllery to the Americans, will have been completed. The American allotment called for 152 heavy guns. 8 ? The 27th, 30th and 37th divisions, including all attached organizations, have been instructed to prepare for ? embarkation home, the war department ~ . announced Tuesday. The 27th division rj is composed of New York troops and V was trained at Camp Wadsworth, Spartanburg, S. C., the 30th or "Old Hickory" division is composed of Tennessee., North and South Carolina, and t] District of Columbia troops and was e ? ~ ~ C ti trained at Camp sevier, ureenvutc, o. ? C. The 37th is composed of Ohio and K West Virginia troops and received its o training at Camp Sheridan, Montgom- o ery. Ala. The 102nd trench mortar battery of the 27th division, the 316th trench mortar battery and the 364th a field artillery of the 91st division al- jj ready have sailed. All other units of 0 the 91st now on priority vwill be em- ? barked as shipping becomes available, A $12,000,000 cotton corporation is if in process of formation by farmers and b others interested in the cotton industry, t< according to a statement by J. J. t< Brown, commissioner of agriculture of Oeojgia. Mr. Brown's statement followed a meeting here Monday between himself, Daniel J. Sully and farmers * of Georgia and South Carolina. As jj described by Mr. Brown, the corpora- w tion will serve as a marketing and is financing agency a medium between i( . the producer and the spinner of cot- f ton. It will provide a cotton exchange 8! for the farmers of the southeastern jj belt and will eventually stop short ^ speculative selling on the cotton ex- v changes, he said. The directors will lease, buy or build warehouses, in which farmers may store their cotton fof a small charge. ir it is necessar.v ^ money will he advanced on the cotton, h The corporation will embrace the en- b tire cotton states, in its activity, but a will be chartered in Georgia with head- A quarters probably in Atlanta. h . Franklin D. Roosevelt, assistant ?. secretary of the navy, after a conference with Admiral Sims on plans for l! the demobilization of the American 11 navy in European waters, said Tues- q day he was confident that, with the exception of about 3,000 mep, the American navy would be out of Eu- n rope not later than February 15. When t] the armistice was signed there were n 70,000 American soldiers in European c waters. Today there are approxim- c: atelt 23,000. Several thousand are at n aviation stations in France and Ire- 11 land, but are being sent home as rap- n idly as possible. One of the present I) * * - * ^ 11 difficulties in me way ui annpin,- mobilization is the uncertainty as to tl how many German passenger ships o will be allowed to carry American soldiers home and as to when the ships will be delivered. These ships will be a manned and operated by the American a navy and their advent into troop ser- w vice will require the sendees of men 2 at the ports from which they will sail. a The navy is having little difficulty in ^ disposing of the vast amount of mate- tj rial and supplies in France. England p andjreiand. ? In the times of war "Britain must n maintain her fleet to resist unjust ag- b gression, for if she didn't she would w starve in a week,' declared William si Howard Taft in an address a few jt nights ago. He added that "England's surpremacy of the seas" in times of peace had always meant "equality _ for all nations." Asserting that the ^ question of disarmament "must depend on the success of the league of nations," the former president con- w fining; "Some years ago the league of D nations was an academic question. In J England they got a league of nations having the purpose of it to preserve ir peace, but they refused to put the C( world peace in it. Now the issue is acute. The congress at Paris has put a the issue down as the first subject for tc its consideration. There are persons in our country who say that it ought ^ to be postponed. Juries M. Beck, among e! them, but it seems to me that the rea- u" son why they have put the league of p nations first is. as Premier Clemen- n ceau has said. that, unless you have a j league of the five great powers, your jj peace is going to be nothing but a g scrap of paper." n Camden, January 22: Robert Lat- w ta, veteran police officer of the Cam- p den force, was shot and killed here a this afternoon when he attemped to b arrest Howell Hudson, a negro. The negro had been creating a disturbance on what is known as "Team Row." near the Seaboard passenger depot r anri Policeman Latta had been called " to arrest him. The negro was armed ^ with a repeating shotgun loaded with * buckshot and opened fire when the of- P fleer approached. After shooting the :j policeman, the negro, still armed with P the shotgun and a quantity of shells, barricaded himself in a small house " and opened fire on those approaching. A posse of citizens armed with shot. ^ guns and rifles soon formed and by t shooting through the house the negro . y was probably mortally wounded with , rifle bullets. He was removed to the county jail, but was later taken to the {j state penitentiary for safe keeping and t was barely alive at the time. Police- _ f man I^atta lived only about half an c hour after being wounded. Only one shot struck him and that in the breast. I r>itl7pn and ; He was a oitmy rbucvhw was loved by all who knew him.

Aside from t the importance of the conclusions j reached, it was especially notable as t beinsr the first time that the voice of f the United States had taken the direc- j tion in the concert of European pow- ? ers on the most serious European ques- u tion now presented.

Any kind of cattle, whether of a , eef type or of a milk type, will pay s way if properly taken care of. If the military authorities do not hange their minds again soon, the 'hirtieth division will soon be home I gain. We need more cattie and better cat- j le in this county. We need to pay lore attention to milk cows and milk < roducts, such as butter and cheese. 1 jid also we need to give piore intelli- ( ent attention to beef cattle. There is no longer any effort to con- . eal the fact that the peace conference , ? in the control of the United States, ireat Britain, Prance and Japan and tiat whatever they agree upon will be . one.

Also it was universal sufrage that enabled France to make a plendid fight against Germany. And , I Germany had had universal suffrage efore the war as she has now, there ' rould have been no war. Revision of the tax system,, better ducational facilities, improvement of ealth conditions, the adoption of the i udget system, and the prohibition of i lcoholic beverages under the camouage of medicinal remedies, are the i fading aims of Hon- Robert A.

It looked yesterday as 1* the general ssembly might adjourn until July on ccount of the influenza. The senate ranted to adjourn and voted to do so, 2 to 13. The house, however, did not < ppear so certain that this was the est thing to do- It was argued that le appropriation and supply bills, esecially needed to be looked after, and lere were those who thought that all ecessary work of the general assemly could be completed in two or three 1 eeks. Dr. James A. Hayne, of the 1 :ate board of health, advised ad- 1 lurnment. < , 1 There is a lot of promise for the ' rogress of York county in that com- , lunity council proposition, is ine peo- , le will take hold of it in the right , ay. By taking hold of it the right ay, we mean that all classes of peole must lend a hand, the farmers, the lershants, the 1 awyers, drctors and le preachers. The first big task is to nprove and perfect transportation jmmunication among the people of le various communities. This means whole lot of things systematic mo>r truck traffic, regular schedules, etter roads, means of collecting and istributing produce of all kinds, the stablishment of uniform prices for niform values etc. Of course it is not urely a trade proposition- There is ' lore to it than that. The successful evelopment of a system such as out- . ned will result in development, proress and uplift of all kinds. The . lain thing is to get an intelligent start ithout too many initial mistakes. The roposition calls for the test brains nd abilities to be had, though. Everyody should remember that. There was a time when the banking . ower of the country was more in the ands of individuals than it is now. 1 n those days the controlling banks of lew York, Boston and Chicago, often f New York alone, could agree among hemselves and handle the finances of i he country as they saw proper, or as hey desired. If there was a great volme of loans outstanding, and the volme of ready money available to the ieople independent of the banks was mall in proportion, the financial dictaors could call for a settlement with he result of bringing about a most remendous stringency, if not actual anic. The governors of the N'ew fork banks could do very much as hey pleased, and th.re were none to ay them nay. Of course this same old rowd still has tremendous financial lower; but they are no longer suireme dictators in the money affairs if the country. The supreme power Jong this line now lies with the reHnnnl r??srvp hoard. Thai board can nake money plentiful or not as it leases. It used to be that the City Cational and other New York banks, icting together, could force farmers ind others to put their cotton on the narket at whatever it would bring, rhere has been talk during the past reek or two that such an operation is iow in progress, and that farmers and ithers who are holding cotton off the narket are being squeezed to sell, rhese reports are being circulated all ver the south; but there is no truth n them. Chairman Harding of the rerlAnol *><team>A Knn n At otn nrl fnr inything of the kind, according to retorts from Washington, and he wants o know of authentic coses where tanks are trying to force the farmers o sell- Mr. Harding evidently believes hat the south is entitled to a fair price or cotton this year, and he proposes o do his part to see that this fair price s forthcoming. By a vote of 101 to 3 the house of epresentatives passed over the govrnor's veto the bill providing that the 'olumbia fSas and Electric company hould charge only five cents fare beween the city of Columbia and Camp ackson. The three who voted to susain the governor's veto were Speaker 'othran, and R. B. Belser and D. D. foise of the Sumter delegation. The tory of the bill goes back to the estabishment of Camp Jackson at Columia. Among other things as an inducement for establishing the camp the 'olumbia street railway promised to arry all passengers to and from the amp at 5 cents each way. The prom- i je was in the nature of a plain conract. With the extension of the rail- i av lines to the camp the fare was es- I tabltshed at 10 cents each way. There were lota of protests, not only in Columbia but all over the state- The issue was the flagrant violation of voluntary agreement rather than the price of the fare. Thinking people, or many of them, were of opinion that the passage was really worth ten cents and more, for that matter, and there was reason for question as to whether the street railwav company could break even on a five cents fare, even with crowded cars. But there was the undisputed and undisputable agreement, rhe general assembly took the matter up and promptly passed a bill to compel the street railway people to stAnd by their promise and haul people to and from the camp for 5 cents each way. After the adjournment of thei general assembly the railroad people got after the governor and he vetoed the bill, leaving the street railway to continue to charge 10 cents In the meantime. Among those who appeared before the governor in behalf of the veto was Col. A. C. Dalton, of the army, then located at Camp Jackson; but it is not of record that any of the private soldiers were in the delegation. The matter has been talked all over the state ever since the veto, and the house was quite ready for the veto when the matter came up. A TRICK OF THE BEARS. Federal Reserve Bank Denies Calling or Restricting Cotton Loans. At the meeting of the cotton farmers at the Richland county court house Tuesday, one of the men present declared that he had heard that the federal reserve bank was requiring a reduction in the amount of the loans on cotton. Another stated that he had heard that cotton loans were to be called, as the federal reserve bank did not think it proper to finance one crop In the warehouse and another in the fields. Tuesday night B. Harris commissioner of agriculture, was directed to communicate with Senators E. D. Smith and W. P. Pollock and representatives from this state. Mr. Harris asked for a confirmation or denial of the report. Senator Smith yesterday wired Mr. Harris as follows: ! /?/! a rrnvovnAr of na.ve just uvmr.u uv gvivtiiv. v. federal reserve board. No foundation whatever for rumor. Can you give me any specific instance where any bank In the federal reserve system or out of it is threatening to do this thing: 1 would like to get this information." Congressman Ragsdale wired, "Chairman Harding emphatically denies any action looking to reduction of loans on cotton. He says that he has written the president of South Carolina Bankers association, advising that credit be extended on cotton as security. He is of the opinion that we must increase exportation of cotton or reduce acreage." Congressman Lever sent a similar message concluding that Mr. Harding suggests that Mr. Harris "furnish him with the names of any banks which might be refusing to discount cotton papers and promises a prompt and vigorous investigation of it." Congressman Bryan also confirmed the statement that the federal reserve bank had denied that it had issued any order in the matter of cotton loans, and Congressman \V. F. Steven son wireu luuuna. "Reserve board claim they have urged banks not to call loans on cotton nor to make the restrictions materially harder, that they are anxious for all the cotton to be carried until the export conditions are such that a fair price can be realized. Governor Harding is goin? to Atlanta on February 14 and would be open to adIress cotton growers on that subject while on that trip." Mr. Harris said last night: "It begins to look like w4 have run down another of the rumors by which the bear speculators have been trying to break down the spirit of the farm ere [>f the south. Mr. Sully, Mr. Weston and others stated publicly at our meeting that the federal reserve bank had been the means of the financial liberation of the south, and we are made to believe fom these fine statements from Mr. Harding that we yet have powerful friends at our back." Mr. Harris would be glad for any persons in the state who have information on the subject to notify him at >nce. He did not take the initative in this matter, and he knows by whom the statement was made in the conference, but he wishes ti get all of the information available. Columbia State, Thursday. CLOVER CULLINGS. 2orre*pon<fence of The Yorxvuie enquirer Clover, January 22. There was a louse to house canvass on Sunday afternoon for the Armenian-Syrian reief work. The people responded liberally and Mr. W. T. Beamguard, who nas charge of the canvass in this part )f the county, reported on Sunday light a total of $527. Some money las come in since and he thinks the Igures will be about $600. There are some districts which have not yet been canvassed; but Mr. Beamguard wishes them to go right on with this work as soon as possible. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas T. B. Williams, >f Lincolnton, N.

The Sinn Feiners of Ireland, who elected practically all the representatives to which Ireland was entitled-in the British house of commons, and who decided to occupy no seats in the British house have organized a parliament of their own and declared independence of Great Britain. The Irish parliament met in London for one day only last Tuesday, and behind closed doors. The newspapers were not allowed to publish the declaration of independence. The British have sufficient force in Ireland to control the Situation and the Sinn Feiners have but few arms with which to make trouble. Because of the murder of two policemen who were guarding a quantity of explosives that ......... ^ k.. ..Ua,i fr... mininc niirnosos. which explosives the Sinn Feincrs wanted, the Tipperary district was placed under what is known as the crimes act and the entire district is now under strictly enforced martial law. The last official act of Governor Manning was to grant twelve parols and three pardons. Among the pardons were .1. L. Hanahan, Richland, convicted of manslaughter in 191$ and sentenced to five years, and K. 0. Hardin, Richland, convicted of manslaughter in 191$ and sentenced to five years were i?ardoned in order to restore citizenship. These two men are prominent citizens of Columbia. They were riding in an automobile which struck a little hoy and killed him. They were convicted upon the ground of reckless driving and were paroled sometime ago after serving part of the sentence imposed. LOCA1. AFFAIRS. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS Mrs.'^W. E.

And it is to be noted that good prices are the rule, rather Ihan the exception, one hundred dollars an acre not being uncommon. Referring to the activities of various kinds of criminals, as reported to him within the past week or two, SherifT Quinn said: "There was such a noticeable subsidence of crime during the war that there was reason to hope that we were entering upon better times; but now it is beginning to look as if criminal activities were only being held in check for the time being and that how it is all coming to the front at once." A good many people have the idea that so much of a school district's fund as may not have been used before the last day of the year in which it be- I came available, reverts to the general fund- This, of course, is a mistake. While it is a fact that few school districts have anything left over at the end of the year, where they do have a surplus that surplus is no less available, for when once school mone*' is apportioned .to the credit of trustees, that money can be checked out only on the warrant of the trustees. Mr. John Williams, supervisor of Ebenezer township, was in Yorkvtlleon Wednesday on business. Discussing the condition of the Yorkville-Rock Hill road with The Enquirer, he made it clear that he fully appreciated the awkward situation, and the need that something be done to protect the large amount of labor and expense that had been devoted to this road. "But under the law, you know, 1 have nothing to do with the road, and no right to expend Ebenezer township's money on it. I understand that something is to be done in the way of putting the road in shape within the next few days." Auditor Love came up from his home and took a look over his office last Tuesday, after having been down for several days with the influenza. He was really not sufficiently recovered to be able to do anything?hardly fit to attend to business; but he had the work of taking returns on his mind so strongly that he was unable to keep away. As soon as he gets well enough Auditor Love hopes to make new appointments at some of the places he has not yet been able to visit. In the meantime all who have not yet done so will do well to take advantage of the first opportunity to make their returns at the office. CO-COUNTY BRIDGE. The county board of commissioners of Mecklenburg county now have authority to pay two-thirds of the cost of a bridge across Catawba river between Yorkville and Charlotte, and the next move is up to the York delegation in the general assembly. Mr. R. S. Riddle, representing those who are actively promoting the cocounty bridge over the Catawba, and Mr. J. C. Wilborn of Yorkville, who went to Raleigh on /that business in company with A. M. McDonald of the Mecklenburg commissioners, returned yesterday and reports that the North Carolina legislature is agreeable to all that has been asked so far. The "neressarv enabling act has al ready been passed by the North Carolina legislature. It is estimated that the proposed bridge cannot cost more than (60,000, and it is not believed that it will cost more then (50,000. Mecklenburg is authorized to expend two-thirds of whatever amount is necessary, and on a basis of (50,000, York county's part will be (16,666-66 2-3. The act of the North Carolina legislature specifies that the bridge must be located somewhere between Wright's and Boyd's ferries. GENTLEMEN OF THE JURY.

While of course everybody has heard of the "Marsellaise:" but few local people had really heard it until that Frenchman, Maj. Edouard Du Pont sane it last Monday night. Wednesday was a most beautiful "spring* day and people came to Yorkville from all sections, especially altogether by the special sale put on by the Kirkpatrick Belk company. With the coming of the rain yesterday, a heavy drenching' rain, which set out in the morning as if it were going to last all day, conditions were very much changed, and business was less active "n all lines. The influenza situation at the Church Home Orphanage has been on the increase instead of the decrease during the past week. There were eighty cases on hand yesterday; but none of them were especially serious, there being no pneumonia. There are four trained nurses in attendance, two from Camp Wadsworth, one from Shelby and one from Atlanta. The local Red Cross is doing what it can in every way, especially in the daily preparation of soup and other suitable food for the patients. The old frame building formerly used by the local congregation of the Associate Reformed church, having been sold to Mr. J. F. Kell, is being torn down for re-erection in Rock Hill. This building was erected shortly after the organization of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian congregation in Yorkville in 1863, and it was used continuously by that congregation until it went into its present handsome new building in 1913, a period of sixty years.

The Community Council idea, so auspiciously launched in the meeting at Winthrop last Saturday, is to be pushed to further development, at least to the point of demonstrating whether or not York county wants or is ready for serious work along this line. A committee consisting of ProfsJohn F. Thomasson and J. W. Thompson, Hon. John E. Carroll, Prof. W. H. Ward and Miss Minnie Garrison, has been appointed for the purpose of taking further stepB, including the falling of a county congress, to be composed of representatives from all parts of the county. This congress will be called later, in the discretion of the committee. Housebreaking at Tirzah. Thieves broke into the postofflce, railroad office, T. B. Glenn's cotton office and Fred E. Smith's store, at Tirzah last Tuesday night. Eleven dollars was secured from Mr. Glenn's office, and a few cents out of Mr. Smith's cash register; but so far as is known nothing else was stolen. The railroad office was entered through a window, as was also the cotton office. A plank was pulled off the front of the postofflce, and in the case of Mr. Smith's store the thieves broke a pane of glass from the front door, stuck in an arm and turned the key. So far there has developed no clue as to the identity of the thieves. Fort Mill National Bank. The stockholders of the First National Bank of Fort Mill, at their annual meeting on Wednesday, of last week, elected the following directors: W. B. Ardrey, T. B. Spratt, Dr. J. Lee Spratt, Osmond Barber, L. A. Harris, J. J. Bailee, Jr., S. W. Parks, J. B. Mills and H. N. Patterson. The directors chose W. B. Ardpey as chairman of their board, and "elected Thomas B. Spratt, president; Dr. J. Lee Spratt vice president and cashier; Osmond Barber vice president, and W. A. Roach, teller. The report of the president showed a remarkably prosperous year. Semi-annual profits amounting to 4 per cent were divided among the stockholders and 30 per cent was passed to the surplus fund. Speaker Clark Talks Sense. Speaker Champ Clark declared in the house during debate of the diplomatic appropriation bill Wednesday in favor of "every American soldier being withdrawn from Russia and the rest of Europe." He answered criticisms of the course of Ambassador Francis of Russia by saying it came- from momhPi-s icnorant of conditions there. "Cleneral Dupont in a recent interview," said the speaker, "said our boys would be kept over seas for another two years. He made enough money out of selling- powder during the war to fill this house with one dollar bills, and he says our boys will be needed to help tear down barbed wire and police Europe. "If the Belgians and French want the wire torn down let them do it themselves. After we licked the Gertnans for them they surely can police Europe themselves. The most sensible thing that President Wilson has said was that he was going to bring those soldiers home." AT THE CHURCHES ASSOCIATE REFORMED PRESBYTERIAN. Rev. J. L. Oates, Pastor.

The Fatherless Clilldren of France .We cannot afford to lose France from among the nations of the earth, and so in this sympathetic country of ours there has grown up a really great organization called the "Fatherless Children of France." Through it any person or group of persons, for a small sum. may save and protect a child of France. $36.50 keeps a child a year in its mother's home. Subscriptions may be paid by the year, quarter or month, and a child may be assigned upon pledge of a year's care. Every school in York county can arrange to adopt a French orphan, if the privilege of doing so, sppeals to them. The pledge and the first installment is sent through the County Chairman to John P. Thomas, Secretary, Columbia, S. C., and is recorded by him. Then subsequent payments, monthly or quarterly, may be sent directly to S. T. Carter, Treasurer, Columbia, S. C., who Keeps an account with each pledgor. This in iormauon applies w hiuiviuuaid no ncn m ^ schools adopting: on the installment plan. 150 orphan remain of South Carolina's apportionment for adoption. This is York county's opportunity.

T- Beamguard, Chairman of the Campaign for the Relief of War Sufferers in the Near East, I am making the following report of what has been accomplished up to January^:* In Clover an Intensive house-to-house canvass in the interest of the sufferers in the Near East, was put on last Sunday afternoon. As a result of this canvass 3590.02 was subscribed for the Relief fund, $510.05 of which was paid in cash. Mr. J. Roy Grayson, principal, has reported $15.30 cash, raised bv the Filbert school on last Thursday. Rev. W. P. Grier has reported $65 raised by Bethany church; $17:35 raised by Bethany school and $3.65 raised by Cross Roads school, all in cash. Rev. H. A. Whitten reports $2.97 from St. Paul, and $2.91 from New. Zion. Rev. S. M. Lowry, colored, reports $3.35 from the Clover colored school. Mr. E. G. Petty reports $55 in cash, with more to come in, from Bowling Green. No reports have been received from the other parts of the district, but it is understood that committees are busily engaged in all sections and good' reports are expected from all parts of western York. Those who have reported are stiU at work and all of them will doubtless report additional subscriptions. Jas. A. Barrett. It District Treasurer. OBITUARY DrED In Columbia, on January 19, LEONARD T.
