Thc farinera all over the .State ure passing resolutions endorsing the r< <iuest of the Southern Cotton Asso ciation to hold their cotton for eleven cents per pound. The complete returns in Marion County show the vote to he 1,149 for prohibition and LSI for. dispensary. Senator Tillman's speech in Marion in behalf of thn dispensary, it seems, did not do much youd. Senator Tillman says that his ene mies are the opponents of thc dispen sary. If that he true he will find that when all thc returns arc in from South Carolina, fully two-thirds of her best citizens are his enemies. The winter wheat crop is estimated at -124,500,000 bushels. Thc spring wheat production is placed.at285,031, 000. Over seven hundred and nine millions! Hore is the largest wheat crop the United States has over pro duced, exceeding even that of ?I02, as serts the Louisville Courier-Journal. Many people, especially young stu dents, have the idea that thc only place to study is in some school. Schools, however, can do no more than give a person a start on thc road to knowledge; all true scholars of course continue to study until their dying day, and with them it is never too late to learn. Twelve southern govornors and offi cials of sovcral Southern chambers of commerce have calied a conference to be held at Chattanooga, to coasidcr the matter of uniform quarantine laws and consider the question of protect ing the South from undesirable immi grants. This will bo aa important convention and South Carolina should be well represented there. . ? mo -. mm By a majority of about six to ono the voters of York County np.id at tho ballot box yesterday that the dispen sary must be closed at Yorkville. There were about 850 votes polled, of which about 130. were in favor of .v. J :_ rpi,? f..?n>. WS UlCJIUUDIUJ . J. Jiu .(..U.U.O T.W.U very busy gathering their crops, and hundreds of them did not take time to vote because they considered the result a foregone conclusion. The day is certainly coming when the farmers will be in position to dic tate the price of cotton. Had it not been for the strong organization which has been built up in every cotton State what would the staple be selling for today? Seven or eight conto wonld probably be the highest price, and, therefore,by means of the organi sation of farmers and business men from two to three oents has been saved to the South on every pound of cotton held by the farmers. And the cud is not yet. A resolution was adopted in the national convention of the Odd Fol io ire in Philadelphia on Wednesday that no ono can bo a member of the order who is engaged in the liquor business. That being true we presume the representative at this session from the noble order in South Carolina,' Hon. Colo L. Elease, of Newberry, ; will bave to withdraw his member . ship. As a citizen of South Carolina '-? Mr. Blease is not only engaged in the f liquor business but is one of the ablest and most, ardent supporters and de fenders of the dispensary system ia this State. -\ . j .... '.. m. m ? ?rn Last Saturday a conference which was held in Columbia between Gov. Hey ward, Commissioner Tatum and Assistant Attorney General Townsend in regard to the shipment of whiskey by dispensers of wet counties to pat . rons in dry countice, resulted in the issuance of a new set of orders to con stables directing and requiring them to seize all liquors in transit which does not bear the permit of the com mission er. Dispensers aro forbidden to ship without these permits and without the request blank being signed j o person at the dispensary by ttie consignee. This is the proper action to take, and practically stops the traf fic to the dry communities, as Commla bioner Tatum says he has not and will ' not issue such" permits for these kind of shipments. < We are a much governed people, 'abd there is nothing which afleo ts the American citizen, from infanoy to the grave, awake or asleep, in motion or at rest, at home or abroad, in his personal, social, ? political or property lights, which'is not the dubiect of.reg.? elation by the State. In the above statement made to th? American Bar .Association ; Prof. ' Tooker put his finger. on ? orJe of topmost serious abuses of tho time; With Congress i' vmVkiag laws for the country and 45 State3; and several rcmioties cob' auntly t?rniufe' otrjcr ?awH by i.hous .^\:attd^'f^K^fty-be. said ?hat we arc "a much governed people," but that wo .rc too much governed. As Prof. Tucker points out, when the State steps in and assumes control by boards and commissioners and other agencies of the safety of society, of the health and morals of the people, as well as of their property rights, special care must be! taken not to endanger any of thc inalienable rights of life, liberty and property.

T.WYUnv -riso'n. A Hot Time in linter bur;;. Bateaburg, Septem ber 2"5.-When it was mail? known that John L. Mc Laurin and tito Hon. li. Jt. Tillman wouid addn ss the citizen? of tili? com munity it caused u largo crowd to as semble li ere from Aiken. Saluda und Lexington counties. The meeting was called to order by the Hou. W. ll. Timmonnan. The crowd in the Opera House numbered about four hundred, including quite a number of ? ladies. A letter was read from the Hon. 1 John J.. McLaurin addressed to M. li. Edwards, Mayor, regretting his in ability to attend tho meeting. The Hon. C. M. Eflrd. of Lexington, WUK call? d on and made the opening address. His principal theme wus that prohibition is wrong in principle and in theory. Tho audience was then addressed by the Hon. II. li. Tillman, His speech was along thc usual line. Ho resented in strong terms having been invited to d?BCUSS the dispensary with John L. VIcLauriu. He seemed to take it as an insult. Ile naid that tlie dispensary system, if properly carried out, was the hist solution ol' the whiskey question. He asserted that, the law liad been persis tently ami flagrantly violated by tho beard. He asserted that the piesent hoard had advertised for bids for X, XX und XXX, without specifying what these guides consisted ol'. At this point John Hell Towill in terrupted liim by going in front ol' him and telling him that Iiis statement was absolutely untrue and false. At this interruption the house went wild, sonio hollowing for Towill and some for Tillman. For awhile it looked aa if there would bea personal combat be tween various parties, hut quiet was soon restored. Tillman repeated his charge of the unholy alliance between tho preachers, barkeepers and blind tigers. This charge was strenuously icsented by the Kev. M. D. Padgett, of Bala da County. This brought forth a spirited debate between Tillman und Padgett. Mr. Padgett asked the Senator to please let *.he preachers out. The Senator stated that he would be a candidate next year for tho United States Senate, and be would then discuss tho dispensary question from every stump in the State. He also stated that he was ready and eager to go before the dispensary investiga tion committee as a witness. He had told two of that committee person ally nnd had written the chairman of the committee his willingness to ap pear before them ic the capacity of a witness. At the close of Senator Tillman's speech the Hon. C. M. Eilrd arose and paid a high tribute to the honesty, character and integrity of John Bell Towill, and by that means endeav ored .to pour oil on the. troubled wa ters. John Bell Towill declared most em phatically that he bad never taken a rebate aud as to his character he. would leave that to the people who knew him. He was willing to un dergo the most searching investiga tion . lu a private conversation Tillman said this was the warmest meeting he had been in since 1803. He also said he believed John Bell Towill to be an honorable gentleman, and be did cot io his remarks intend to cast any re flection on his character. This town is overwhelmirxly in favor ot doing away with the dispen sary, and the meeting* so far as in fluencing anyone one way or the other, amounted to very little.-Special to Charleston Sunday Newe.

J. F. Monroe, a merchant ol' HUB town, swore that he saw Ruben Mooro pince the trace chain around 1'cudlotona neck. The face also came out at the inquest that when I the murderers were wavering John Af arion Ashley declared thut Pendle ton had to die that night. His neck I waa broken by the chain nud ho was riddled with bullets. Pendleton was butchered because he had killed Jim Moore, but the evidence showed thut Pendleton acted in.self defense. There is much comment hero over the burial of the victim. Ilia body was placed on a board and dragged into tho woods, where a ditch was dug. The body was thrown in, no collin hoing used, and was only partially cov ered with dirt. Magistrate Rowen hes sent an oili cial report to Governor Hey ward, say ing that the blank verdict waa render ed by a jury in spite of the evidence which proved that Ashley and the Moore's had committed the murder. All of the Atihluy family in thia sec tion were not implicated, John Marion, in fact, being the only member who participated in tho affair, Melvin Ash ley, a son of Representative Ashley, tried to persuade tho mob not to kill the negro, and nc testified that his re lative, John Marion, was in the party. -Special to Greenville News. .Indee Held up by Bold Robber.
