PLEAD FOR FARMERS sim IT* WOULD HOLD GOTTON 8m?tor "l>?ft Darlington Saturday ' ???> >! 2 v' for a Oonf?rtaiM) With Wuhington Official* ? Returns to BUhoprllle and on Monday Outlines What He Mm pomp. Speaking at Bishop ville Monday Senator Smith Bald: "I jnsh ihat at my county seat I felt more like making a speech than I do to-dsiy. On last Saturday I spoke at Islington. Saturday night I went to Waahlngton In order to meet With those who had the power to relieve the terrible situation that confront^ primarily and first, the co^tds and tobacco growers in 8outh Carolina. I left there at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon and came on here this morning, so that you can imagine my physical condition. VI want to make this observation: Novor In tho history of the world/ never before In the history of civili zation, has feuch a ooqdlMon confront ed the human race. Tne great pow ers Of Europe, after all of these yeara Of Christian civilisation, are at each other's throats In a death grapple to maintain their own do main and to make aggression into the domain of others. Never before have we had brought home to us so powerfully that we are interdepend ent from ocean to ooean, from pole to pole and from the equator around. "Therefore, this is no time for any man or any set of men to play poli tics. There confronts those who pro duce the clothing and foods of the peoples of the earth a disastrous con dition, which may lead to bankrupt cy. Their loved ones may not be killed by the bullet or mangled by the engines of warfare, but In the reaction of these conditions in Eu rope there Is pending danger to' us aB disastrous as the hum of the bullet. "It was into that breach that 1 conceived it to be my duty to throw myself, for you had elected me to the Senate by the biggest majority that you had ever given a man ? I say it was Into this breach that I threw whatever brain I had and whatever education I had, and for nine years I have used whatever abilities I may have to help the man who feeds the world, clothes the world and shoes the world; used whatever powers I may have possessed to see that he did not go hungry, barefooted and naked. "They charge , that I have spent five and a halt years of my career pleading (or legislation for the far ~ more. I want to State to the attdl enee that 1 shallletthe heathen rage and the p46ple;ln<"1iigh places Imagine vain things, for I believe that the hope and salvation of this nation is upon the Independent, pro gresslve, energetic, educated, pro gressive farmers of the country, and I have no apologies to make for hav ing labored for them. \ "Therefore, ;the greatest compll* ment that has been^pald me as your senator Is the fact that In this grave crisis there came to me from every cotton growing s?ate the plea for Ed Smith to throw himself Into the breach and once agalh stem the tide that threatened the fanpers of the South, and I would rather success fully respond to that call than to re spond to the majority of the voters in South Carolina and go back to the Senate. "Therefore, I answered that call by wiring last week First, let me say. I met with a few men In Colum bia, and we went over the situation. 1 told them that this was not a time for politics, for the man who would try to make political capital out of so serious a condition is unworthy of being a loan. ? "I pleaded' that we lay aside all t>olitlal differences in Bputh Carolina. 1 tell you? to-day that I care not whether you wear the totton bloom .or the fed badge? I am going to do M much for. yon who do wear the red badge as for the boys who wear the cotton bloom. Thank Qod, you can wea: no badge In South Carolina that will keep Bd Smith from help ing those who are not In a position to help themselves. ? "I Bent telegram to the comptrol ler of the ourrency, Mr. John Skel ton Williams, and askerl him If he cpuld meet me Sunday morning. 1 did not consider It any deseoratlon for me to call together senators and representatives from the Southern states 09 the Sabbath, when the Mas ter taught good will toward men. I called them on the Sabbath day. 'In .response to that telegram I got fav orable answers. "Desfore I got to Wanhtngton, to my gratification, the comptroller of the currency, the man in whose hand rests the great finance* of America, boarded the train at Rlohmond. He came into my berth and from there to Washlngtoh We talked over the situation, t found Mr. Harding, a member of tho federal resreve board, the man who Is tQ put Into operation our new law, at thy office, and I out lined what I wanted to htm. "To my groat gratification there came representative men from Louis- J iana. Alabama, from others of the OOttOfc growing states. There Were also present jaknufaoturerR of cot ton# warehousemen. After we had discussed the situation 1 asked the direct question if It were poenible to1 put Into operation our new law and! Ut^ Richmond, which is to be the een ? 4k?uth, if we could hot let lltcimiond go Into operation. I was informed that It would impossible to J* this reglOhai center ItttO Operation 'AWlthh*- tw tiiM' ninety days, tfL "I said wo tnnst have a IsiW whloh will relieve this situation and let the treasurer of the UaltOd State* come to the rsaeui of those who fill tho tregsuiy. They, informed me that asked bow this was to be done. "The point that 1 wanted to bring out and get the promise that It would be worked out, if possible, was not to have the treasury to send this money to the central national banks, like 8partanbar. Greenville, Colum bia and . Charleston alone, but to make arrangements to send that money direct to our small state banks and let tt\em give as collat* eral security, against the lesuance of that currency, cotton; let the man with one bale of cotton bring it up to his little town, go to his little bank, take hU receipt for this cot ton, properly Insured and stored, and get the mouey he needs on it right at his home. "I told them it was impracticable and no use to talk about the aver age farmer sending his cotton to Co lumbia, to Charleston, and storing It. So I said to the committee, 'Let's get down to brass tacks. It Is no use to Sit down here aud spin your Court blouse yieoriea. What the boy in the .field wants is somothlng that he can lay his hands on without going to a half dozen so-called experts. 1 told them that the rank and (lie of the farmers of this county are just as honest as the best man you have in the treasury. "I told them that what I wanted was that the treasury of the United States, the comptroller, should rec ommend an Immediate amendment to the Vreeland-Aldrlch bill, giving the secretary of the treasury the Tight to send to any bank that will accept cotton paper as collateral against a loan from .yi'e treasury, such money as may be needed and as may be properly secured In such manner, and that there shall not be charged any more Interest than pre scribed by that bill, and that the amendment shall fix the rate of in terest at Just enough to cover the transportation of the money, and the fixing of the necessary papers. "The last word asked me yester day, when the meeting was about to adjourn, was by the comptroller of the currency. "Now, Senator,' he said, 'what is It that you want?' 1 said, 'I want money enough to hold every bale of cotton until the mar kets are open again and the trade resumes its normal conditions. I want that money put where It can get right In touch with the man who makeB the. cotton.' "The comptroller of the curroncy promised me that he would go yos terday afternoon, although the moth er-in-law of the Secretary of the Treasury was dead, and hold a con ference with the secretary; that they would go over the Vreeland-Aldrlch act together and the amendment that had recently been put onto It, and If they could not find a way under ^hls act whereby they could send this money to tho local banks, that If such power did not He In the law that they would recommend an amendment for immediate consider ation. "8enator Overman, Senator 81m .mons, Senator Randell and Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia all pledged me that when this report was made to-day. If an amendment ^ere recom mended to carry out what I pleaded for yesterday, that they would Intro duce It In the Senate and see that it was Introduced In the House simul taneously and rush It through so that the money could be available when the cotton started to move. "You will recall that last year, upon the suggestion of some of ub, the secretary of the treasury sent down here money to help move the crop. Now the conditions are the ^reverse, we want money to keep the crop from moving, and I have no doubt whatever that within the next few days we shall have adequate and convenient means by which the farm ers of this country, tho cotton farm ers. and the tobacco farmers as well, shall be enabled to get a profitable .roturn for tho wealth they produce." MKKT TOCJRTIIRR. Mo. Mcintosh hiuI W. R. Rlchey Have Talk Over Affidavit. The feature of the Laurens county campaign meeting Monday was the statement of W. R. Rlchey, a legisla tive candidate, about a conversation with Dr. Mcintosh. After reviewing the case fully and reading the corres pondence between himself and Dr. Knowlton on the subject of a report by Drs. Knowlton and Mcintosh, and referring to the recent controversy he stated that he sought a personal Interview with Dr. Mclntouh at New berry one day last week, when the whole matter was gone over. The certificate was submitted, as , wore other reports and data bearing on the transaction, and at the con clusion of the Interview Dr. Mcin tosh asked Mr. Rlchey to give him a few days to consider the matter and to recall the various circumstances of the transaction and requested Mr. Rlchey to come back In a day or two, when he would give him an answer. As Mr. Rlohey could not return he asked Dr. Mcintosh to write him a letter And thin was received Saturday. The letter was read by Mr. Richey and in it Dr. Mcintosh stated that he was still of the opinion that the sig nature was fictitious, but expressed the opinion that Mr. Richey had act ed under the belief that It was gen uine.

Wife la Lowered to Rest Beside Graves of Her Parent* Close to Old Home. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, wifo of the nation's president, was burled at Myrtle Hill Cemetery at Rome, Qa., | Tuesday. Her grave is beside those of her father and mother, almost within sight of the house In which she lived as a girl. Tuesday night the president was speeding eastward on his return to Washington. Although thousands of visitors came to Rome Tuesday to do honor to the memory of Mrs. Wilson, a Sab bath-like qulot prevailed. The spe cial force of police, augmented by members of the Georgia National Guard, found little to do beyond warning traffic from the streets through which the procession moved. It was exactly 2:30 when the pres ident's spoclal arrived, and a few minutes later the casket, covered with gray broadcloth and surmount ed by a single wreath of flowers, was lifted from the -funeral car by eight of Mrs WllEon's cousins and borne to the hearse. Ab tho truln steamer slowly into the station church bells throughout the city were tolled solemnly. A wide space had been cleared at the station and the thousands of people assembled there stood back respect fully. ThoBe who bore the casket were: Edward T. Brown, Atlanta: Robert M. Hoyt, Wade C. Hoyt and Nathan Hoyt, Rome; B. P. Axson, Savannah; Randolph Axsan and Ed ward T. Brown Jr. and Frank C. Iksbreath, Atlanta. ^ Tho president, followed by Secre tary and Mrs. McAdoo, Mr. and Mrs. Sayre, Miss Wilson, Prof. Ayon and other near relatives and members of the party, quickly left tho train and entered their carriages The proces sion then moved through black draped streets to the First Presby terian church. Ab soon as the church Bervlce was ended the casket was carried to the watting hearse and the short Journey to Myrtle Hill cemetery was begun School girls, dressed In white and holding aloft laurel branches, stood In line along either side of the streets, through which the procession passed. Behind them were thousands of people, with heads bowed, silent md sorrowful. The entire city was draped In funeral black In honor of the sad occasion. The cortege was cIobo to the cem etery when rain began to fall. The Btorm rapidly grew worse, the down pour soon becoming torrential. A tent erected over the gra-ve gave partial shelter to the little family group, but the thousands of people who came to witness the burial were without protection. More than eight hundred relatives and friends of the Wilson and Axson families were gathered In the quaint little church whtoh Mrs. Wilson used to attend when her father, the Rev. Edward 8. Axson. was pastor there. The church was draped In black, with intertwined wreaths of white flowers. On one wall was a white marble tab let to the memory of Mrs. Wilson's father. Banks of flowers were plied high about the calafalque upon which the casket was placed. As the president entered, follow ing the casket, Chopin's funeral' march was played softly upon the organ. Simple, short services were conducted by the Rev. O. G. Snyder, the local pastor. The president and his daughters, with Secretary Me Adoo and Mr. Sayre, occupied the front pew In the centre, and back of them were other members of the family and Dr. OrayBon and Secre tary Tumulty Two old fashioned hymns, girlhood favorites of Mrs. Wilson, were sung by the church choir. The Rev. Dr. Snyder then read briefly from the Scriptures and spoke of the beauty and charity of Mrs. Wilson's life and character. Services at the grave were brief and marked by impressive simplicity. The president stood with head bowed as the final rites weie performed. He made no effort to control his grief. As the preacher read the bu rial service, the president's form was visibly shaken by his strong emotion, and the tears streamed unchecked down, his cheeks Others of the! party wept silently. When the final henediotlon was pronounced the pres ldent slowly returned to his carriage. His eyes were as thosG of one daned, but his step was firm and his face was stern and set. After the casket was lowered to | its final resting place, and the grave filled, vast heaps of flowers, the trib ute of the nation, were piled high ovor the tomb. On the way to the cemetery the procession passed the house where Mrs. Wilson lived as a girl, and an other spot a.jove the banks of the Ktowah Hlver, where tradition has it that she promised to become the fu? ture president's bride. Near'iy was a statue to. the women of t'.ie South, the inscription on which w*s written by the president a few years ago. On every side were scenes which re called vividly to him the days of his young manhood and memories of hef who now lies In a grave in her old home. Within less than four hours from the hour the funeral train arrived, the president and his party were( once more on board their special cars, and the return Jonrnoy was ho gtm.

Numerous skirmishes are reported along the franco-German frontier, but none of them are of seriouB Im port. It is stated that the German troops were unsuccessful In their at tempt to drive he French out of Muelhausen, which was taken by the French several days ago. It Is also reported that a superior force, of Germans compelled the Fronch to take up position outsldo of Muel hausen, where an engagement was fought, with success to the French.

Attorney General McHeynolds ro celved word Tuesday night from New York that the directors of the New Haven railroad have agreed to his terms for a peaceful dissolution of the system which will put an end to ?.he court proceeding begun there sev erpl weeks ago. Department of Justico officials, s&kod some time ago If there was any possible way to avoid fighting the suit through tho courts, replied the only way wbb to carry out the terms of the agreement for dissolu tion made months ago% Attorney General McReynotds, tyMveyeiy, made his demands regarding the separa tion of the Boston & Maine strongor than formerly. In the old agreement the trustees were to hold the New Haven's Bos ton & Maine stock for two years and a half. Under the present under standing they will hold it for 4 only one year. The attorney general Is expected to see they are In no way Interfered with by the New Haven. They are expected to dispose of the stock In 12 months but failure to do so on reasonable grounds prob ably would lead to an extension of time. BATTM5 AT CHURCH, Many Hhot?

Swearingen was summoned to restore order. The ctmbatantB withdrew from the church to a negro house nearby and continued the fighting until the sher* Iff and his deputy arrived. A pistol, shot gun and repeating rifle were the weapons used and about 20 shots were exchanged before the officers arrived, but no one was' seriously in jured. standing at attention with their armt, at "present".

In tho citios, such matter is completely and satisfactorily taken caro of irf the OlOflWn BOWtirnKo nyotomn. and. thus the city is enabled to preserve a cleanliness which is its greatest "aid In fighting disease. When such matter is allowed to stand in tho open, as every rural resident knows, it becomes a swarm ing place for files and a hoi-bed for disease genns; it pollutes the soil and drinking water, and is always an unsightly and embarrassing nul sance. Such conditions are generally the cauos of sickess and disease. The Sanitary Septic Tank, especial ly designed along approved lines fo1 use In the rural districts, and manu fact tired by Weston & Hrooker, To lumbia, S.
