E. H. ALL, EDITOR. Entered at the Postoffice at New berry, S. C., as second class matter. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1905. The shortage in the Union mills of which Mi. T. C. Duncan was pres. dent it is :tared will amount to abo-. 6o,ooo bales of cotton. "Yr. Duncan has resigned as treasurer and was succecded by Mr. E. W. Robertson, of Columbia. It is said he dealt in spot cotton as well as futures. Ve do not know anything about running cotton mills but these short ages from speculation we fear will cause people to lose confidence and impair the upbuilding of mills. If Mr. Duncan had been on the right side of the market and nad made 6o, ooo bales of cotton instead of losing them there would have been nothing but praise for his good business judg ment and management. but as he was unfortunate and lost he is turned out. It seems to us that the world has a wrong view of this question. If it is wrong to speculate in cotfon when you lose how is it right if you win. We do not believe any man should use other people's.money to speculate in cotton or anything else unless he secures their consent, but if he wants to risk his own that way it is his busi ness. However, it nay be the proper Dr. Lavell is graceful in delivery, A mass meeting is called for next Monday to organize for the enforce ment of the prohibition law which we have now. That is alright. Every law should be enforced and we are anxious to see prohibition strictly en forced, but there is danger of mak ing too much to do over this law now and of being unable to keep up t.he gait. Let us not let our enthus iasm take us too far. The Herald and News stands for the enforcement of prohibition and for the enforcement of every other law. All laws should be enforced. Justice should be 'tem pered with mercy. All good citizens want to see -he laws enforced. And unless public sen timent is. behind any law it is going to be difficult to have it enforced. Governor Heyward has decided af ter conference with Liqour Commis sioner Tatum and the attorney gener al, that dispensers cannot ship liquor .in-to counties. which h-ave voted it out. That his 'been the law and it is proper for t'he governor to enforce it. SLet those who want liquor for per sonal use send off and get it. If a dispenser were to fill the orders -that came 'by mail he could not tell wheth. er he was selling to a minor or a drunkard an<d he could not have the purchaser sign the application blank. The farmers throughout the state seem to be -passing resolutions en dorsing the action of the Asheville cornvention fixing the minimum price of cotton at 11 cents. Still there is consderable coLton going on the mar kets. For the past few days there has not been a grea: deal on the New berry market and the price has gone as high as 10 1-2. The crop is short and if the farmers stand together they can get what they want bu-t un less they do they will lose out. Col. Jao. M1.

Come! rILLMAN AND TO WILL CLASH., Most Exciting Scene Since Stormy Days of 1892-93.--That is False," Said Towill to Till man, and Added, "and you Know it is Not True." Spartanburg Herald. Bacesburg. September 23.-A' the p,litical barbecue here toda.. Which had been widev advertiZed and to which Senator Tiliman and J L. Mc Laurin had both been invited there was a scene of the most exciting na tvre that has taken place in South Carolina's political historv since the st,,rmy days of 1892-03. Hon. J. L. '\eLaurin did not have tine to get he:-e after receiving his invi:atit. it w:s sta:ed. but Senator Tillman was here and whev. he and Col. John Bell Towill, member oi the state board of control cla j:ed in debate there was s;omethin. .> and the opera house crOwded to its untmost capacity was more than a beehive of excitment. In his speech, in a roast of the man agement of the dispensary and in a direct critici.n of *the state board, Senator TIlman said, "According to thz published advertisements of the board, no bids for less than $i.5o for one X corn whiskey will be received." John Bell Towill arose from his seat and in a clear voice said, "Sena tcr Tillman, that is false and you know that it is not true." A scene of the wildest confusion ensued. Loud cheers burst out from the audience and "Hurrah for Tillman" was heard mixed in with the cheers for Towill. r The crowd made a move for the stage, r surging and cheering. Senator Till- r man stood as fixed as a marble statue and when the crowd appeared to be getting unruly, asked several times, "Where is the mayor?" After some time quiet was restored and th,en the Rev. C. M. Padgett, a well known minister of Saluda county arose and questioned Senator Tillman with re gard to .his attack on the preachers of the state. At this pandemonium again broke loose. Senator Tillman berated the news papers naming the most objection al- ones, he cited the News and C;-urier and others but was more par t;-ilarlv bitter when naming the S..ate than any others. He said. "That hell hound in Columbia wh:o e-* -s the State has told enough lies o:1 me +furnish crossties to build a railro-o go hell." Hie paid his respects to McLaurin ar-l said that he considered it an in s:t to be invited here and to have an invitation extended to McLarin at the same time. In the invitation to Senator Tillman t:he signature of Col. John Bell Tow ill was heavily underscored. It is reported that after the meet .Senator Tillman .and Col. Towill g.t together and that Senator Till n1 explained that he did not mean tc accuse Mr. Towill of dishonesry. :s no doubt restored the status quo of the two men.
