Telephone, local and long distance. No. 112. Entered at the postofflce at Fort Mill. S. C.. as Ball matter of the second clans. THURSDAY. JUNE 26. 1913. According to a recent decision there can be no Federal prosecution for violation of the Webb liquor law, inasmuch as the law does not prescribe a penalty for auch violation. The Webb law appears to have been passed solely to enable those States having prohibition laws to regulate the shipments of liquor from outside territory into their borders. The Times hopes that the South Carolina Legislature at its session will And time to pass a law which will put a stop to the shipment of liquor from Other States into prohibition Counties of this State Until . such a law is passed there is absolutely no hope for prohibition in the strict meaning of the word. The Times has been asked by Beveral citizens to prevail upon city council to sink a well some wnere in tne vicinty of tne intersection of Main and Booth streets. It is pointed out that the country people coming to town these hot days have no place in the vicinity to water stock, except to ask the privilege from owners of private w?lls, and as a result many horses and mules are made to Buffer for want of water. The need of a well at the head of Main street is apparent to all and it is hoped that council will heed the call. Invariably it is the man who does not give one penny a year for the support of his home newspaper who first reaches the office seeking notice through the paper's columns when something unusual happens to himself or member Of his family. The Times believes in the rule of, "help one another," and does1 not propose to toot the horn of the man who ignores the paper except when seeking notoriety, j It is to be hoped that the peo-! pie of York county, and especial- i ly the farmers, are already plan-! ning for exhibits of their live stock and products at the first county fair to be held at Winthrop college next fall. There is no reason why the county fair should not be a big event and: we have faith enough in the people of the county to believe that they will go to work early and; make It so. : People along the Southern rail- j road between Charlotte and Rock Hill have every reason to thank the Southern for its decision to put on two extra passenger trains on July C. Accommodations on this particular line for several years have been anything but satisfactory, and that better service is now promised is pleasing to all. That it is much easier to capture a June bug than a June bride is vouched for by several well known Fort Mill men. Applicable to Fort Mill. Recent sermons on dancing and similar forms of amusement in Chester do not appear to have landed very hard on the young folks of the city, who have been keeping the floor warm up in the ball room of the Commercial Club. We beg to extend our sympathies to their reverences, the ministers. We ourselves became familiar many moons past with the silent sorrow (silent if one is wise) of learning that even from the most carefully prepared discourse the backward ; kick sometime exceeds the forward impulse in motive force. ? | Chester Lantern. i Rock Hill Hakes Much Cloth. I Whilp Rnplf T-Iill Ar\oo nnf olaim I to be one of the greatest textile centers in the South, it is nevertheless true that a surprisingly large amount of cloth is made each year, says a special to tne Columbia Record. Carefully prepared statistics show that for each day in the year 100,000 yards of cloth is manufactured. The total mileage of cloth manufactured would be 661-3 miles for each working day, or 20,000 miles per annum, estimating five yards for each dress the annual production in Rock Hill would clothe 7,280,000 women and children. There are 103,500 spindles, 2,808 looms with around 2,000 employes. The annual payroll is more than a half-million dollars, and the value of the manufactured product is nearly $3,000,000.
