E. H. AULL, EDITOR.
Entered at the Postoffice at New
ferry. S. C., as 2nd class matter.
Tuesday, January 8, 1907.
According to t,he quarterly report
of the dispensary publisied in (this is
sue there is an item of $20-184.20 ''due
State for enforcement. of dispeiisary
law in dry counties.'' In the same re
port the cost of, the cotnstabulary
is put down at $12,243.20 whicli is
about. the average exipenses for three
months. We suppotie the item due
by the dry counties covers the entire
year but if it does the dry counties
must be charged up with nearly one
half of the total cost of the consta
bulary granting that nothing has been
paid.
We invite every farmer to read the
address of President E. ). Smith, of
the Cotton association published in
this issue. The profits that are made
out of cotton must. come out of the
producer. Those who hatnde it after
it leaves the producer want to get it
from hi ii jist as chleap) a-s they can
and no one bliames them, hut it be
hoves t ie falrmlier. as .Mhr. SIiti points
out, to see to it tlat lie too has a pro
fit in it hel'ore it leaves his hands.
The editor left. yesterday for Co

The association decideld to place a
copty a fthle following onl the desks of
the mienmbers of the senat e and house

houses:
To House and Senate.

of R'Iepresen tat ives of the State of
Sout h Carolina:
The unuders im.ned coimmi tlee was ap

lie passage of: 1st,* A Compulsory
Education Law; 2nd, A Marriage Li
cense Law ;3rd, A law requiring thle
regist rat ion of births.
The thIiree siihjects will be briefly
mienitionel(d in reverse order to thle
above, thle intenut of thle memonrtitl be
ing, inot to Clniineratel I thle man1 iy argut
ment s which might hie advanced in fa
vor ot thle passage of thle Ia ws sug
gest ed, but chiefly toa put thle State's
textile mianufact urers squarely and
defini tely on record as fa voring, and
earnest ly urging such legislation.
Registration of Births.
Te Ilack (if proiler registria tin oif
births and consequentlv iniability' to
ascertinii positively the ages of child
ren is a const anlt liinid ae to those
who are' conscientijoustly tryying to ad
here rigidly to thle requirmennt s of
the recently enacted law govering~
Ite cimploymneint of cliir en of tet
yea rs--commonly known as the
'Child Labor Law."' In fact thtat ab
sence of age record is in many in
staindes a shield to grasping andt uin
sortiputous parents against whiose
greed the law is intended to operate.
It is trueo it will take time for such ai
~; record to be of value, butt this mecre
>ly emphasizes the importance of de
laying no longer in commencing the
accumulation of data, the need fot
which is already at hand.
Marriage License.
Our State's position as to divorce i
Swptl known. Is it not by reason there
specall incumbent upon us ti
'"thow safeguards around the enterinj
~ito marriage relation? The early ag
at which matrimonial aliances, wre
formed is in itself startling. The fre
quency wilth which the relation is sev
ered-merely by imutnal consent or by
desortion-is i deplorable ienace to
morals. We voice the sentiment, not
only of the mill managers, but, we be
lieve, of the more thoughtful and dis
cerning mill operatives, when we urge
the requiring of marriage licenses and
greater watchfulness as to the viola
Uions of existing laws.
Oompulsory Education.
-Irrevocably opposed, as we are, to
''elass legislation''-to (lie passage
of any laws designated either to exer
cise restraint over, or to accord special
privileges to any one class of citizens,
alone-we have been unable to give
our support to the measure hereto
fore introduced 'intended to require
school attendance on 'the part of the
cotton mill operatives only.
We admit that the facilities now
provided by many of the mill cor
porations, the longer term of the mill
'schools, etc., would empliasize Ithe
necessity of compelling the youth of
tile cotton mill villages to accept the
educational advantiages thus afforded.
Still it mu-st be remembered that it
is from tle farms that the bulk of
our textile workers have come, and
are still comingil, and that the statis
ties as to lak of edluation-so esaily
obtained f.rom the compact mill vil
ilarge-still refleets to a .rea rver extent
the educational dificiencies of the re
mote rural distriets.
There are already more negro chil
dren than wlhites enrolled in tlie pub
lie schools of our State-the pereen
I.age of' attendanice of tle negro chil
dHren is larger. Ibr much longer will
lie senseless fear of rciein.. (7) the
ieioes into sellools (eter us from re
qu'iing- aln acceptaice by the elhildren
of illiterate whites of tile opportuli
ties of learning which our public
school system offers? Through what
other method can a more intelligent
citizenship be obtained.
We earnestly urge, the pas
sage of a. law compelling school at
tendanee by all children bet ween the
ages of' eight and twelve, regardless of
residence or avocation of parents.
