Never, knowingly, have wo published 1 an untruthful letter, or one w ithout the 1 full and written consent of the woman who wrote it.

BLISS ' I ( Interesting Happenings About the ( South Carolina Soldiers Now In!. Camp on the Mexican Border That i \A/1 11 n.. ' I In Camp with the South Carolina ' Brigade, in the El Paso Patrol District. ' ?The citizen soldiery of South Caro- : lina now encamped on the border are 1 very much interested in studying the 1 manner and customs of the Mexicans and getting in touch with the situation 1 along the border. Although the South ' Carolinians tire encamped within seven miles of E! Paso, which is on the ; border, they have not yet been given 1 any patrol duty and it is chiefly ' through visits to El Paso and from Mexicans and Americans who are frequent visitors to the camp that information is gleaned. There aro about as many opinions as to what the situation is going to result in as there is as to "who killed Cock Itobin." Some are hot for intervention and this represents a considerable element, not only in El Paso and along the border, hut from other states. The interventionists are chiefly Republicans, who are pinning their hopes on the election of Mr. Hughes and a Republican congress, atjd the property interests in Mexico. There is a considerable element which wants the American army to pacify Mexico and withdraw after setting up a stable government, something on the order of what Uncle Sam did for Cuba. Others are opposed to both intervention end pacification bv armed force, but would like to see a big guard kept on the border, an embargo put on everything and leave the Mexicans to .shift for themselves and fight It out with the strongest surviving. The laboring class along the border and here is entirely Mexican. The population of El Paso Is half Mexican for out of the 70,000 then* are H5.000 , Mexicans. They live In little dirty ( quarters and the squalor and poverty beats anything in the negro quarters among some of the towns In South CaiMlna. These little mud huts are ( built from half baked bricks and the , whole family lives in tho one room. The Mexican quarters were the only part of El Paso seen by the South ( Carolinians when they were shifted through on their way to Fort Bliss and many were fearful that El Paso was | not much of a place. However, the < modern and beautiful El Paso is be- , yond the Mexican quarter and the ( South C-arolinians who have visited it | are very much delighted and compliment the appearance of the city. Even Worse There. i While the Mexican population on this side of the biundary appears i squalid and poor to a South Carolinian. those who have ventured on the Mexican side declare the situation there is many times worss. A business man who made a trip to Juarez i Just across the river from El Paso , the other dny. savs that there is evorv r.ign of want there. The streets, he i said, seem to be filled with loafers and business was partically at a standstill. The streets were full of beggars and tilery are practically no Americans on that side of the river. The Mexican private soldiers are poorly equipped and poorly uniformed, but he said the officers present, in many instances, a smart and intelligence. The people were idling, many of the men loafing around the pool rooms and the barrooms. A Diamond Rattler. Just to the left of the camp lies a range of hills which are called mountains in this country. This chain of hills lies diagonally to the Mexican border. They are bare of vegetation except for sage brush and cactus in the ravines. Some of the South Carolinians have already climbed to the top of this range of trills which are about eight miles from camp. It is in these hills that rattlesnakes and the other j reptiles reside. On Sunday First Ser- | gennt Hughes of the Smyth Kifles of > I'elzer climbed the hills and brought back into camp a diamond Mexican rattler. This snake is about 15 inches long and the one he captured had a : button and two rattles, indicating that it was four years old. No snakes have yet been seen In camp but there are plenty of horned toads, centipeds and ants. The bother from this source. nowever. is insigmncant so rar and nothing liko what one would expect from the stories heard before coming here. It is no wonder that there are all kinds of wild rumors hatching along the border. All kinds of people and all classes and conditions can be seen and every one has something to say. Of course there is lot of "stringing" done for tho benefit of those who have come a long way from the border and who know nothing of it except what they have read, but the South Carolinians are skeptical and are not roadily taken in by the "yarns" which are daily handed out by the characters around hero in large numbers. The Palmetto boys are studying the situation for themselves. Col. E. M. Hlythc of the First and his adjutant. Capt. G. II. Mahon. Jr., made official calls on Tuesday after- , roon on Gen. George Pell. Jr.. in command of tho El Pa?o district; Col. \V. K. Wright, the commander of the South Carolina brigade, and Maj. Gen. Clements, in eontniand of the Pennsylvania division encamped Just opposite the Palmetto boys. There are four brothers in the Irish V tluntoers, probat ly the record for the two regime-its. They are Alexander. Charles. John and Arthur Moore, all of Charleston, and are fine ; soldiers. As to Carranza. C&rranza Is nominally the ruler of Mexico, but there seems to be considerable doubt as to Just how much authority he has. He seems to be the leader by virtue of the favor of his generals, but there is strong doubt as to his ability to control his generals. They obey him when they want to, and when they do not they pay not attention to him. The idea here now seems to be that Carranza Is finding his position shaky and that before long some other leader will arise and depose him and direct the leaking Mexican ship of state for a brief and stormy period, for that is the record of them all for the past several yean. Monday night a strong wind blew throughout the night and the powdery uinds which covers the camp site several inches In thickness was blown avre everything. The sides of the tents had to be pulled down but even that did not stop the sand from seeping under and blowing over clothes and all matter in the tents. The one redeeming feature of all the sandstorms is that the sand is not of the 'sticky" kind, due to the dryness of the atmosphere. It can easily be brushed off and the Pennsylvanians say that the South Carolinians will soon get used to the sand storms and not mind in the least. They state that was their experience. The First regiment entered Texas at Texarkana, a splendid city about the size of Anderson, which lies half in Texas and half in Arkansas. There the farming country is good and the gins are preuy. Dallas and Fort Worth are big towi s. modern and progressive, and both over 100,000 in habitants. From Fort Worth on through the state over the Texas & Pacific railway the rountr? is rolling mid near El Paso mountainous. Mesijuite, sage brush and stubble make up the vegetation and the principal industry is cattle, preat herds were seen. One railroad man said that the Hereford was the best heef cattle. At several places fine herds of Hereford were passed. The prairie dogs. Jack rabbits and the old familiar South Carolina rub bits were seen in large numbers in the western part of the state. The Mexicans live in large numbers all along the way and increase as the border Is reached. All the laborers are Mexicans and they are very much like the pictures of them shown in the movies. Friday morning the train passed a typical Western town with its frame dwelling and old time saloon pictured in all storieR of Western life. The guardsmen have seen cowboys, ranchmen and all the char actors of the West. lust hovnnil Van itnron ohnnt 1 "f miles from the border, the boys sight ed on the left of the railroad a Texas ranger with his outfit. These in trepid watchmen arc the terrors of Mexicans and have done fine duty in guarding the border. Hills or Mountains. El Paso is set at the foot of some high hills, mountains, somo call them The hills are absolutely bare of vego ration resembling somewhat the saud dunes on the coast. The absence of trees is the most notable feature of this country and that with the sage brush, cactus, mesqqite. and alkali dust gives something of the idea of what kind of a camp site the South Carolina boys have. The range of hills encircling El Paso continues up beyond where the Palmetto boys are located. The high range of bare hills to the west mak< a picturesque background for the ramp. From this range of hills down to the Rio Grande the country i9 level and the camp site is therefore adftiir ably located. The boys stood the feur days' trip well antl detrained in good spirits and in fine health. They were glad to get on the border and set to work put ting up their tents without any dolay and with buoyant spirits. Water lines had already been run into the camp The latrines had already been laid off and details under Capt. Justice sot to work building the latrines, the luniher nnil nil mofarlalo fnr having been placed on the ground prior to the arrival of the troops. The sanitation and health condition? of the camp are all that could be de sired. The site la well selected. Only One Difference. The catnp site is a good deal like that at Styx except for the lack of shade. Of course rain is almost an unknown Quantity in this country and fc- that reason there will be more dust hut even here the Palmetto boys arj ahead for the railroad keeps of< the dust from the Pennsylvania troops who are encamped Just across the track. The First arrived in camp with l.Oftfi enlisted men and 49 officers Six enlisted men and two officers are absent and will Join the regiment later. Gen.

Very few of the men recognized him. but he walked over the camp and took in the general situation. ocKDine ncguiar uuoes.

WATSON Commissioner A Weekly Bulletin of Information Weetern Newspaper Union News Service 1 The offers ami rails for home grown seeds for the fall sowing are now be- ; coming numerous and it has been gratifying to know that the quality of rye, wheat and clover seed has been exceptionally good. The effectiveness of the State Bureau of Marketing is becoming more 1 pronounced with each succeeding week. In the last few days parties in North Carolina in need of clover, rye i and wheat seed have been writing to the Bureau endeavoring to make purchases iu this way in this State. A farmer living 011 a rural route in Dailitigton county writing under date of August 10. says: "1 have orders amounting to 29 bushels of my Abruzzi seed rye for which 1 am grateful to you." Another writing from a point in Sumter county says in a postcript: "I have placed about $100 worth of articles through your bulletins." Writing from Charleston, under date of August 12, Mr. W. M. Krampton, Agricultural Secretary of the Citizens Bank says: "l want to say in connection with your weekly bulletin that it is one of the finest things ever startixl in this State to save farmers money as i deals directly with the farmer and eliminates the middleman who generally has the largest share In the profits of the planter. Saturday I had a call from asking me if 1 could put him In touch with some one who could sell him some thorough bred sheep. I immediately looked over your bulletin, which I had 011 file, and put him in touch with L. C. Lawrence of Marion. S. C., whom he called over long distance phone, purchased the sheep and in a few hours had them on the train rolling for Charleston. This is what I coll quick work and one that will prove | immensely beneficial to the country. 1 have had numbers of calk* similar to this, which 1 have always placed in the same satisfactory manner."

LOBELIA USED AS A DRUG American Indians Gathered Plant for Their Chests?Called "Indian T obacco." American Indians found one plant growing in damp woods, handsome in spikes of pale blue flowers, which Ihey used as medicine.

It Is the lobelia, named for Matthias Lohel, a Flemish physician and botanist, says the Philadelphia North American. The medicinal substance in the plant is culled lohclin. an alkaloid, although the Indians probably didn't know tt. The common use of the plant among ttie aborigines i? ?i the early settlers to mil it "Italian tobneco."
