TOBACCO OBOWEKS
WILE FIX PHICES.
Desolation Urges (irowcis to Offer:
Only Better (inuUs ami to Fix
Minimum Figures.
Florence, July 22?Definite action
as to what is best to be done to ob
tain relief from the situation created'
* ' by low priced tobacco will be determined
at the meeting of the Tobacco
fll'nWOI'c' ;icc/tninfinti #*1* Contli
lina in Florence Friday, July 21?. The
Warehousemen's association was ask-1
ed by the indignation mass meeting
r here today to meet a committee from J
the growers' organization Saturday
for the purpose of fixing a minimum,
price at which tobacco will be per-i
mitted to sell in this state. It was
admitted that nothing was to be gain-]
ed by demanding better prices and'
that control of the crop by the fanners
themselves in the acreage undi
matter of marketing was the only]
avenue of relief. Farmers are urged
in resolutions adopted to offer;
only the better grades, well cleaned,
and picked, and not to bring any to-]
bacco Whatever to market until after
the meeting here next Friday:
when definite steps as to price will be
taken for their guidance.
Speakers urged today that tobacco
selling for two and three cents a
pound was worth more as fertilizer.
There were probably 100 present
t~ K representing nil lines of business, and
while the meeting opened slow it developed
into a pyro'echnical display
later on. Some delegations from surrounding
counties brought in reports
of such bad feeling in sonie sections
against the present low prices as to
give rise to apprehension as to what
might happen in some localities unless
the people were brought to an
understanding of all conditions. Discussion
today was frank and freeNearly
all of the principal markets
were represented. Some telegraphed
they were water bound. E. C. Epps,
a banker of Kingstree, offered the
following resolutions and they were
adopted:
"Whereas citizens representing various
tobacco markets in South Carolina,
called together in mass meeting
bv the secretary of the tobacco association
by request of certain local
markets for the purpose of discussing
the prevailing conditions of the present
markets and the prices offered
thereon, after due deliberations and
thought, do hereby resolve and
recommend the following suggestions
as the only practical means and
( methods whereby more uniform and
more satisfactory prices may be obtained.
"First: We recommend that farmers
devote their best efforts towards
harvesting and curing only better
grades of tobacco and that the same
be cleaned and picked before being
offered for sale on the warehouse
flcors.
"Second: That, all such tobacco receiving
bids less than the price to be
determined next Friday, to be withheld
from sale and be used f*'1"tilizer
upon the farm on which
grown.
"Third: We recommend that the
warehousemen of the state refrain
front bidding upon offers for sai(. unh
ss at least one bid is made by an
(authorized buyer not engaged in or
in onv wav rnnneoted with the ware
house business.
"Fourth: That all tobaccos offered
j fej sale that do not bring at least
/"ihe fixed price be passed by the
warehousemn and returned to the
producer.
"Fifth: That the Warehousemen's
association be and is hereby requesttd
call u meeting of all warehousemen
in South Carolina in Florence
Saturday, July 30, and at this time
the said association together with
a committtee, which will be appointed
from the growers' association
which meets in Florence Friday, July
29, will fix a minimum price at which
any tobacco will be permitted to
.sell in this state. That it is the sense
of this meeting that the farmers
throughout the state be encouraged
|?as far as possible to withhold sales
of* tobacco from the warehouse floors
t until after the meeting of the State
1 Growers' Association next Friday and
the meeting of the Tobacco Warehousemen's
association on Saturday,
July 29 and 30, respectively."

Business Coming Buck Slowly.
"The man who expects business to
come back with a rush is fooling
himself," remarked Mr. R. S. Rogers
ytsterday in conversation with a Her
aid man. "In my opinion," continued
Mr. Rogers, "the tide has turned and
from now on there will be a gradual
improvement. Worrying over the
present prices of tobacco is borrowing
unnecessary trouble. The price will
improve as the grades improve anci
two or three weeks from now the
S tobacco planter may be smiling. I
have watched it year in and year
* out," observed Mr. Rogers, "and
the country does not feel the effects
of tobacco sales until along about the
first of August. The banks would be
the first to note an improvement,
and even the banks do not see any
/ improvement in July. The market
opened ten days later this year and
it will probably be about the 10th or
15th of August before we see tnuch
evidence of tobacco money."

THE DILLON* HEKAL.E
An Unfortunate Cliurcli..
Pastor Gregg of the First Baptist
church, colored, made an unusual announcement
in last week's Herald.)
He notified the public that it was
necessary to tear down and rebuild
their church building. The church'
has had a series of misfortunes. The|
colored Baptists of Dillon have al-j
ways been weak in numbers but'
strong in the spirit. Years ago when
the congregation was much smaller
than it is today a few of the
faithful got together and erected the
present church building. .Many menibersr
who could not contribute money
gave their labor freely while otherrs
tnude contributions in the form
of building material. But the church
was erected and happy was this small
handful of Baptists when they began j
to worship under their own vine and
fig tree. But ere long misfortune |
came. A heavy wind storm swept overj
the community and tore away i?irt
of the church building. Undaunted
the congregation went to work and
repaired the damage done by the elements.
Once more they settled down
to worship regularly every Sunday
and the members were happy and?
contented. But following close on the
! heels of the first came a second mis|
fortune. During un electric storm
! lightning struck the church and tore
| away the steeple and part of the roof.
Once more did the congregation go
Ito work industriously and repair the
|damage done by the elements. But
(scarcely had the second misforjtune
been overcome when again
(lightning struck the steeple doing
considerable damage to the
1 building, and a few weeks ago
(steeple was struck the third time and
the church suffered considerable
, damage. The ignorant and superstitious
began to look upon these misfortunes
with feelings of awe. It was
u warning from above that all was
(not well with the church and its peoIiIp.
and tin. I.ni-it um>d .......: : ?
his displeasure in a strong and convincing
way. But such was not the
jease. The colored Baptists were unit,
led in every movement for the upbuilding
of their church. So they got
together and decided to tear down the
old building and rebuild the church
from the bottom. Why this church
should have been singled out by the
jelements as the particular object of
I their anger is explained probably by
the fact that owing to the construction
of neighboring buildings strong
air currents were directed toward the
j church building. Lightning follows
ithe line of least resistance and when
Ja descending bolt conies in contact
with a swiftly-moving current of air
it is quite natural that the bolt
should be influenced by the air current.
There is nothing supernatural
-about the misfortunes the colored
Baptist church has suffered from the
forces of nature. On the oilier hand
the causes are perfectly natural and
would happen to any building located
ion the same spot.
Saved CJiiTs Home.
The subject under discussion was
j "money"?a subject which has for the
past few months been discussed
from every angle. "The only man I
'know of in this section who ought to
have any cash money," remarked one
of the gentlemen in the party, "is
Rev. Baxter McLendon, the noted
.evangelist of Benneltsville. I understand
that In- lias just closed a big
meeting in Asheville and thc people
[were so much enthused over the
good work he did in the famous
! mountain oily thai they made big
contributions at every meeting he
held."
"That is true," replied Mr. Jas. Car.
micliael. "Baxter McLendon never
finds any difficulty raising inorc. than
'enough money to carry on ltis meetings
and if he kept ail the money tlm
people gav.e hint he would soon have
more money than he would know
what to do with, hut he doesn't keep
it. He is one of the biggest hearted
men I ever knew and the world
,has no idea of the amount of charity
i work he does. He takes care of
I widows and orphans, buys clothes
jand food for the needy, and keeps
for himself very little of what he receives.
I heard of a big-hearted
thing he did up here in a North Carolina
town where 'ie was carrying on
a successful meeting. Among the substantial
contributions at one of the
services was a check for $50 from a
young girl who worked for a living.
When the check was presented at. the
bank for deposit the cashier looked
at it and turning to Mr. McLendon
said: 'This girl is not ablh to make
' this contribution. We have a mortgage
on her home for $1700 and we
,are arrarnging to foreclose it today.'
The evangelist studied a moment.
'Let me have that check back,' he
said. 'Now hand me over that mortgage
and charge the amount to my
account.' The transaction completed,
! he took the cancelled mortgage and
presented it to the girl. That is what
Mr. McLendon does with his money,"
continued Mr. Carmichael. "If he
kept it himself he wouldn't know
what to do with it."

Comptroller's Auditor Says Dillon
Has efficient Set of Officers.
Mr. Jones, representing the. Comptroller
General's office, who recently
tt ade a complete audit of the conn 1
ty's affairs, lias filetl liis report and
compliments the several officers very,
highly. Following are extracts from;
the report commenting in a general
way upon the several offices:
t Mr. D. S. Allen, i
Books and Records.
The Auditor has prepared the tax
duplicate with a remarkable degree
of care and accuracy..and the ah-,
st tacts furnished the Comptroller
General nr.. p?,...,^nioii?n
-V"....'
of the taxes and penalties levied.'
They are neat, accurate, and comply
(Strictly with the law.
Tax Statement
We have carefully audited the duplicate
and have no corrections nor
criticisms to offer. On pace two of,
this report we submit a condensed
statement of all taxes and penalties
charged to the treasurer on account
of 19lit taxes. These amounts agree
with those charged the treasurer in
the annual settlement of June 30,'
1920.
tieneral Comments.
We beg to call attention to the
jfact that, in addition to diligently and
efficiently performing the routine
duties of his office, this officer lias
been instrumental in the passing
of more than one bill of constructive
legislation. For example, when the
present Audi,tor took charge there
were cases where one school district
lay in more than one township.
1 his makes no special difference except
that there would be several
Township Hoards of Assessors passing
on property in the same school
jdistrict. Through the efforts and at
| the instigation of Mr. Allen this law
; liar been changed so that no school
!district extends beyond the boundaries
of the Township in which it is
j situate. This not only docs away with
a needless confusion of townships
land school districts, but also greatly
j facilitates 'ho work of 'he County
; Auditor us well as that of any aejcouniant
who may wish to check his
I accounts.
I A second act for which tht. County
'Auditor is largely responsible is one
! relative to the Boards of Township
; Assessors. It has been customary to
.appoint so many men from a township
regardless of the school district
from which they came or the number
of school districts in the township.
The law as changed is that there be
one representative from each school
i district, a more intelligent law by
far. We refrain from further comments
other than to commend this officer
for his all-around ability and
efficiency.
Office of Clerk of Court.
Mr. Sam McLaurinIlcoks
and Itccords.
We have mad.- a general inspection
of the records of iliis office, and
find that the Clerk of Court i keeping
all books required by law. His
accounts and files ar, conveniently
arranged and this officer's work as
a whole appears to bo satisfactory.
Fines and Licenses.
We submit on .page -t of this repert,
a statement showing the col
mi iions on iiccmiiii ??i i nips, iori? Hurt's

period commencing July 1st. l.rt-0 and
ctidi.it: Juno 7. 1021. \\'e find that aU
money collected has been properly accounted
for and promptly turned over
to the Treasurer.
Trust Funds.
The amount, of trust funds held by
this officer is very small, hut we
1/iVe checked and found correct his

Office of County Commissioners.
Mr. J. H. Mcf.aurin. Chairman,
Mr. J. H. Edwards, Clerk.
Hooks and Records.
We have carefully audited the
books In this officc. and beg to rept
rt that they are well-kept. All
claims are systematically filed and
are listed properly in th,? claim register.
Separate accounts are carried
in the ledger against the several
items of appropriation as provided
in the county supply bill. Claims are
audited and verified before being approved
for payment, a custom upon
which too much stress cannot bo
placed. They are also drawn up and
I )>i uuaieu as required oy law. AS a
| general proposition this office is bejing
conducted on sound business
principles, and good records are be1
ing kept.

The Judge of Probate is keeping

all accounts are neat and accurate.
All papers are systematically filed,
and the whole work of th(. office is

records of the proceedings of
the Probate Court are being kept.
We beg to state that we encounteredj
no difficulty at all in checking this
officer's records.

of Probate in this County shall receive
