FENSDAY DEEMBR1,99 SUGAR CONTROL BILL PASSED BY SENATE Would Continue Equalization Board for Year GOES TO CONFERENCE Amendmer's Adopted in Upper Body Change Measure as Ap proved by House Washington, Dec. 16.-By a vote of 256 to 34 the house late today passed the senate bill continuing the sugar equalization board through 1920. imendments retaining in force the war time powers of the government for controlling prices and movements of sugar were approved necessitating the sending of the measure to confer ence committee of the two houses. While the only dispute to be settled in conference are the continuance of the war time powers permitting li censing control of sugar business, and the requisition of stocks or refiner ies,- leaders in congress were doubt ful whether an agreement could be reached before the holiday recess. As passed by the senate, the bill re pealed the license control, and con tained no reference to the re<uisition ing power. Opposition of the bill's supporters to the repeal of thece powers and the unanimous criticism of the sugar equalization board that the senate bill would serve no useful purpose, were placed before'the house committee be fore it decided to recommend continu cee of. the power. The board de lared it should be vested with these powers as well as the power to place an embargo on exports. The house interstate ormmerce coin mittee began hearings today on the proposal to place an embargo on sugar but deferred final action until Friday. . Several members of congress appeared before the committee to urge favor able action. In the house debate, however, Rep resentative Fordney, Republican, of "Michigan, declared "this em'bargo talk is nonsense, as under an agreement of the equalization board with Great Britain, France and Italy to keep them out of the Cuban market, the United States was compelled to ex port some sugar to these countries. House action on the bill resulted from a "speed lip" program adopted by leaders late n the day. Debate on tl.' measure was largely an attack by R( ,ablicans on President Wilson becaus' ae had not ordered the purchase -f the Cuban crop last fall by the gpvernment. MEXICAN CONFLICT Laredo, Texas, Dec. 16.-Sunday's El Universal, of Mexico City, says h.uis Cabrera, secretary of the treasury, "makes the alarming pre diction" that the "new conflict whith will arrive between the United States and Mexico will be (due to the refusal of the (Mexican) government to permit petroleum companies to drill new wells.'' D~eelaring that Cabrera's "proph ecy" is probably correct, the paper says that, failing in the "Jenkins cyse. to get results,' 'the enemies of M( xico have applealed to the Amer ican Congress in an extendled me.. morial complainin gagainst the ac tioni of President Carranza in re stricting drilling of new oil wvells. It adds that prodluction of oil has been redu~ced considerably "by some wellIs being salted," andl adlmits that twelve wells have been shut dlown "by force on orders of Gen. Murguin, who was instructed to (do so by the secretary of industry andl G EltA 1WD BECO)MES CANDlIDATrE Pierre, S. D)., Dcc. 15.-Jlames W. Gerard of New York has signed a mioriity nominating petition as a candlidate for presidlent of the Uniitedl States at the state primaries in March, it was announed~ here today. The petition also wasm signed by six dlelegates to the recent state proposal mn a ing held here. Principals accom pa'.. lng the petition are summarized .abeing: "To make and~ keel) the cotrtiy safe for dlemocracy." Under the State lawv Gerard's name wvoul.l go on the ballot as an in (dependent Democratic candidate, in asmuch as the state Republican pro p)ocal meeting endorsed Maj. Gen. heonard Wood as their candidate and the Democratic meeting favored Woodrow Wilson.. R. D. COTHRAN WRITES TO CLARENDON FARMER Editor Manning Times, My Dear Sir: To the Tobacco Growers of Clarendo and adjoining Counties, gentlemen: We are ab6ut to bring to a clos one of the greatest tobacco seasons th successful tobacco grower of the Caro linas and Virginia ever had. Tobacc grices for those that were successfu as I have stated above in making goo collory crops were for beyond thei expectations. Farmers in South Carc lina as well as Virginia and Nort Carolina sold tobacco for prices neve before attained in this country. We have sold tobacco now in Virgini for the last two months that has aver aged around sixty-five cents and ha hinged in price from twenty to on hundred and forty per hundred, o course these tobaccoes are more de sirable for domestic purposes than ou South Carolina tobacco. The crop o tobacco in North Carolina and Virgini was much shorter than the companie any time thougth it would be. Sout Carolina has a decided advantage ove the North Carolina and Virgini grower; before tobacco can be mar keted in these states it has to be grad ed. The cost of grad:ng, tieing an loss in weight, coupled with the hig cost of labor will easily aggregate a over-head expense to the grower i these states of at least $5.00 per hund red that the South Carolina growe doesn't have. We have another bi advantage over our competive states too we can produce more pounds p, acre. I much brefer our method a growing and selling tobacco in Sout Carolina. The farmers here in Vir ginia scores of them haven't gather ed their corn crops yet. Many of ther (lid not get to sow their small grai on the account of having to grad their tobacco. Now I have lived in the three state and one thoroughly familiar with th conditions existing in these states an know whereof I speak. South Cars lina is by far the most desirable an most advantageous to the farmer, am proud of the fact that I have pitch ed my tent in what may be very cred itably said the capital as heart o Dixie (viz) South Carolina. I will g further and say that Clarendon coun ty and the city of Manning are th spots most desirable to me. Our cour ty and county seat, Manning, our re sources, our productive soil and prc gressive citizens are well worth bein proud of. I was in Manning tw weeks ago. My first trip since Sep tember. The street work and the ne, store of D. W. Alderman & Sons C( have added much to our city. We ar oming to the front. You can not kee Manning down. We are going t have one of the largest tobacco mar kets in Manning in South Carolina i less than five years. We are going t have in an other season a well equip pedl and up to (late redrying tobacc plant. Mr. .1. F. Satterfield, one o the proprietors of the new warehous in Manning whom I bought out ln fall will have charge of this plan Mr. Satterfield is a genuieman of hig character and sterling worth in th tobacco business. We are indeed foi tunate in having him launch an ir terprise of this kind in our town. The new warehouse will be operate by R. D. Cothran and Rt. B. Terrel We have named this house the Plant ers. The other three warehouses wi be operated as usual. But as I do n< know at this writing what the style of firms will he I can not name then We hope to have Prizeries in Mar ncing bv another season, suflicient t pack all the tobacco in. I hope th growers of tobacco will make ampl preparation for an early crop thi c'omil)' vear. See your neighbors an get all the seed you can. and be c i tain and (do not waste any see(d. I feit w.e are going to have a seed shortag of the kind we usually give out. heard from the seed comnpany thi a fternoon atnd they expect a shortag and1( qutote thenm at $5.00 per1 lb. soi th high cost. of living has reached them too. I wish the farmers in the cori ty that have more seed than they wil noe' to look out for their neighbor that hasn't got them. I wish righ now to implress upon01 the minds of th tob~acco( grower by all means in th future to sow his owvn seedI. We knmo from observation and from selling .h dliflierenCit typ~es of tobacco that th ma:n that nlants his owna seedl make the best tobacco that we handle. Sue] successful gr.owers as F. hE..Dulos'e, o S-rdlinia McF'addin McIntosh of Nei 7/o0". C'alvin .J. Haley of the Bloom ville section and others always say andl plant their own seedl. Nowv Mr. Tobacco Grower thies gentl amen I have mentioned hay never failed in a crop of tobi. since I have known themt. I am p~osi tively sure that my contention is cor' ret that acclimated or home growvi tobacco seedl are by far' the best ane s'..rest to sow, and too, you know what k~ind of seed you ar'e sowing when you sow your own seed. Thi money that is sent out of the state b; the variious tobacco warehouseme amounts to thousands of dlollars ever: year. This waste should be stopiped andl especially since tihe farmer wil b~e benefited by ik. I will have tobacco snied for fiem distribution at the five tent and twent cents store, Mr. S. L~. hluggin's store Tlhe seedl will be distributed aftei Christmas. I hope the farmers of Clarendoi county wvill 'cultivate their 'usua crops of everything; do0 not plant al one crop but lalnt some of the (if ferent crops you have been cultivat lngr. Make your home supplies firs and then your tobacco and( entton. War-Time Dry By the Su ' Decision Practically Wipes Out Hope of Wets for Short Damp } Period Before Christmas 1 'RESIDENT HOLDS POWER t - i r-h Chief Executive Alone Can Allow Sale r of Whiskey by Issuing Proclama tion of Demobilization t - Washington, Dec. 15.-By unanim~ t a ous decision, constitutionality of the wartime prohibition act was sustained - today by the Suyreme Court. The r opinion, given by Associate Brandies, f held in effect, however, that the war- t invoked "dry" period still may be t terminated by presidential proclama r tion of demobilization. t In rendering its opinion, the court - however,fi did not act on the validity of the oVlstead prohibition enforce ment act, or on appeals involving the alcoholic content of beer leaving those cases to future opinions which may be handed down next Monday before the court recesses for the Christmas t holidays. -t r "Wet" Hopes Practically Gone h Today's decision practically swept h away all hopes of a "wet" Christmas, I - as the possibilities of the war-time e act being repealed before constitu- t tional prohibition becomes effective one month from tomorrow, were con c sidered remote. 3 The cases decided were those of the i Kentucky Distilleries and Warehouse t Company, of Louisville, Ky., and I)ry [ foos, Blum & Company, of New York, s - instituted for the purpose of coipell- t - in gthe government to release whis- I key from bond. In both cases the I court denied contentions of Elihu e Root and other attorneys for the dis - trict 'distillers that the act, in viola ~ tion of the constitution, takes private I property without just compensation,. for which the act was passed had - that the period of the war emergency terminated, that the law was an inter ference with the State police powers and an undue exercise of the war pow-!t ers of Congress. Did Not Mean War End Congres did not intend for the warc time act to terminate on the conclu > sion of the war but at the end of the 1 f period of demobilization. 'in view of t the court. which held that the "con- I t elusion of the war clearly did not t t mean cessation of hostilities." L "Congress, therefore, provided," the opinion adbded, "that the time when the act. ceased to be operative should .be fixed by the President's ascertain ing and proclaimi'im the date when de mobilization had terminated." t Tad the President on October 28, f s last, when he vetoed the Volstead act, believed that demobilization had tr- I - minated. the court said, ''he would i doubtless have issued then a proeimaia I e Lion to that effect, for he had mnani s fested a strontg con iction that restrie tion upon the sale of li ugor should < s' see no rason why tobacco shoul not bingood diemandl next season. I x e. peet, to see it sell well. With best Swishes for a merry Christmas and a - v'ery happy and prosperous New 1 Year. 3 I ami, your very truly t . D). Cothran. A [[TT[R FROM MR. TERR[[l 'I'o the Farmers of Cla rendlon andI 3 Adijoining. Counties: The time draws near wheni we are f to considler preparation for the to /bacco crop of 1920. I feel that you -and I have a mutual interest in the noiatter and because of that fact, I t wish to expriess my views at this ~ I time, andl give you the facts as I see Sthem from wvhich these views are >(drawn. fir'st tobacco is n)ow sellin very hiigh, having steadily advanced 5 - since the beginning of the season. ~ There are several related causes for I the present high prices, foreign de mandl since the close of the war, which found the foreign stocks repleted, ai worldI wide demand exceedling the supl ply', and the shortage of the present I e rop. In consequence of these variou.~ causes and conditions, there must as I l a resunlt be a good demand for our l dlomestic tobacco for some yearr .ot come, and believing this I expe't to be i at Manning with Mr. R. D. Cothran' whor'A you all know as pn expert to- V' bacco man well preparedl to get you f' the highest market p~rice for' your to bacco, and I advise you to plant all I tob~acco) yod enn cultivate, properly 0 l without interfering with your other necessary farm products. f T'ruly your friend, R. B. TIerrell, P. S. -We expect to have tobacco C Law Upheld preme Court The war-time act, the court also eld, is not? confiscatory, asserting hat more than nine months were iven distillers to dispose of their tocks, which time the court believed o be adequate: The act also was not epealed, the court held, by the pro ibition constitutional amendment, vhich, it asserted, is binding not only n peace but also in war times. Announcement was made tonight hat the House agricultural commit ec will meet tomorrow to vote on the notion to table the bill of Representa ive Gallivan, Democrat, of Massachu etts, which would repeal the war ime act. Internal revenue officials explained onight that the court's opinion would ot effect the bureau's plans for en orcing national prohibition in thc east, as all preparations had been lade upon the assumption that the et was constitutional. Little Effect in New Orleans New Orleans, Dec. 15.-New Orleans vas little affected by the decision of he Supreme Court in upholding war ime prohibition today. During the rief wet spell here a short time ago, rought about by an injunction, sa lon owners found difliculty in pur hasing whiskey as no large quanti ics were available. Tremendous Blow to New York New York, Dec. 15.-The knock-out elivered John Barleycorn today by he United States Supreme Court in eclaring war-time prohibition con titutional, came as a tremendous blow o leaders of the "wets," dispensers of iquor, the wiseacres who have been >redictirg a wet as well as a Merry hristmas, and the average man with thirst. "We do not care to eitize the Su >reme Court and have no comment to make at this time," was the only state nent forthcoming from A. W. Slaight. xecutive secretary of the association >pposed to national prohibition. Ile dded, however, by way of a "chaser," hat his organization was concerned hielly with combating the I:h mend ment and had "no direct inter st" in the war-time act. It the "wets" had not entirely lost neir optimism. E'. It. liuckner, of the .r of Ioot., Clark, Buckner & Ilow SI, who have led the legal forces of e "antis," declarel it all restedl with he President and Senate whether \mericanls were once flor to taste red li quor."

ZEIGLER- TINGEN WEDDING WEI)NESDAY One of the most interesting social events of the season was the mar riage of Miss Rosaltha Zeigler, of this city, and Mr. James I. Tingen, of Florence, which took place Wednes day afternoon at three o'clock at the home of the bride's mother, Mrs. H. T. Zeigler, on Amelia street. The parlors were teautifully dec orated with southern smilax, white lillies and brightly burning tapers. An improvised altar, upon which were tall vases filled with asparagus fern and lilies, surrounded by little pedestals of green and white formed an ideal setting for the wedding scene; a large me4?ror reflecting the beauty of the artistic setting. Just at three Mirs. .1. W. Culler sang, "Sweetheart" and "Constaney" ac'onpanied by Miss Ella May At kison on the piano and Mirs. F. P. 1 Schifiy on the violin. To the strains of Mendelssohn's 1 wedding march, ,Miss Georgia Sims descended the stairs, wearing a beau tiful gown of Pekin blue charmeuse, and carrying a bouuqet of cream earn ations and ferns. The flower girls, little Misses Harriet Plowden, of Manning, a niece of the bride, and Jeanne Carter were charming in gowns of pink and blue tulle, and carrying baskets of pink carnations and sweet peas. The bride 'nitered with her broth er, Dr. John A. Zeiglcr, of Florence. and was met at the altar by the groom and his best maun, Mi'.' June iourne, of Florence. Beneath a large i shower honuet of lillies and ferns, the impressive ring ceremony of the Methodist church was per oriled by the Rev. W. A. Massa T1he bride. w\ore :a hamb-ome gown "f brown panne ve!vet t.ri-inmed in 'r. with hat and accessories to 'iatch. I!el wedding ornaments con- 1 sisted of a strong of pearls, a gift of the groom and a beautiful cameo pin set in pearls, an heirloom of the groom's family. She carried an arm bouquet of bride's roses and sweet peas. In the receiving line were Mr. and Mrs. lHenry R. Sims, 1)r. and Mrs. II. T. Schiflley and NI- and Irs. O. L.I Cruin. In the gi- room were Mirs. .1. G. Smith and Mrs. L. II. Shuler; in the dining room were Miss Wini fred Doyle, Miss Ella i ay Atkinson -md Tir. and ,Airs. .\lugo Sinms.
