Fort Mill township farmers continue to sell from time to time cotton they have held from the 1920 and 1921 crops. I>ast week more than 150 bales were sold on the Fort Mill market, at an average price of 17 1-2 cents. It is aaid that some of this cotton could have been sold several months ago for twice the amount the fdrmers received for it. The sales of cotton in Fort Mill this week . have been below the sales for the I corresponding days of last week,. as has the price, 17 cents being the highest amount paid for the staple since Monday morning. The through freight business of the Southern railway, Columbia division, apparently is not kuffering from the general depression. Long freight trains, made up of from 40 to 60 cars, loaded for the most part ' with produce from Florida for Northern markets, x\ (or several days have been passing through Fort Mill almost hourly, with a corresponding number of trains of "empties" | going south. The trucking sea son is at its height in Florida at present, but in a few weeks it will tyve way to the trucking industry of lower South Carolina. Ex-service men of Fort Mill are keenly interested in the result of the vote to be taken it\. the national house of representative to! ft 'iw \'%a i % 9f \M "tQMM w?y. ( 5 I OOX m COLUMBIA A outstanding event of the clos ing week of the 1922 session o the Legislature was the addres in the house of representative: Thursday night of James M. Coi of Ohio, Democratic candidate ii 1920 for the presidency. Thursday afternoon Governor Cox arrive* iu Columbia from Aiken. He waj met at the station by a house del egation and after a short drive t( points of interest in the city wai taken to the Jefferson hotel There he was tendered a dinnei by the delegation, at which Gov crnor Cooper and a number ol other distinguished citizens of the State were guests. Following th< dinner, the party went to the Co lumbia theater, where Governoi Cox delivered a 15-minute speech to an audience which filled the big building and was perhaps one of the most sympathetic to which hi had ever spoken. But the really big reception of the evening for Governor Cox began when he entered the hall of the house of representatives on the floor and in the gallery of which 'apparently not one more person could have found standing room. Immediately Governor Cox was recognized walking down the main aisle with Governor Cooper and the house delegation, he was greeted with a round of applause which lasted more or less regularly throughout the evening and which must have made him feel that for once at least he was among friends who were anxious to pay tribute to him as the leader of the great party to whom all bore loyalty and fealty. Introduced by the speaker of the house. Governor t'ox had the audience wholeheartedly with him from the first dozen words of his speech. And such a speech, such an arraignment of the insincerity, such an indictment of the "hypocrisy and a. . r> ui: uivviii|irirucr ui lilt; party and the national Republican administration has seldom if ever been heard in South Carolina. Many South Carolinians look upon Mr. Bryan as the one man in American public life possessing 11 fee simple interest in the right to expound without question the principles of the party of Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Juckson and apply those principles to pres. day national and international needs. These people are fortunate in having heard Mr. Bryan, hut they are more unfortunate in not having heard Governor Cox. Mild of manner, with a pleasing, ingratiating voice that charms and holds his audience as he drives home with unanswerable argument, keen wit, apt illustration and biting sareasm the facts and inferences he presents to the discomfort of his opponents.Goveror Cox pleads the cause of distressed humanity as no other man in public life in this country can do it. Little wonder that he was thrice elected governor of Ohio, a distinction that State has never conferred upon another of her sons. LiiTTie wonder that he was put up by the Democratic party as its standard bearer two years ago. The wonder is that the people of the country did not have the pood sense to elect him, as he should have been, and if he had In en elected the outstandinp fipnre in world affairs today would be a stronp, resourceful, sincere, four-square president of this niiphty republic. And the seat occupied foreipht years by Woodrow Wilson would not today be filled on the installment plan by a weak, wobbling, vascillatinp executive rattling around in it "like a grain of corn in a bladder." A little better than two years from now the Democratic party will again be in convention to nominate its candidate for the presidency. On whom will its favor fall? McAdoo! -Good man. but lacking the. aggressiveness to lead the party to victory. James M. Cox! By that time the country will have sorely tired, of th? good-natured hut visionless Harding and will welcome the opportunity to turn to Governor Cox. Then South Carolina will have the chance to redeem herself from the faulty judgment of her delegates to San Francisco in 1920 who held out so obstinately against Governor Cox. In Columbia Thursday night there were people from all sections of South Carolina who heard Governor Cox. Not one of these, perhaps, but who went home convinced that in him the nartv has a leader whose leadership it cannot, afford to dispense with excent at the possible cost of failure in the next ,presidential election. Whatever the attitude of n 11-: A J iiium; uuiiui?i aruiiuutuslownni Governor Cox before hie visit to Columbia, they are all his friends now, *fmd their friendship will count for him when the State chooses its delegates to the national convention in 1924.
