He wanted some commit tee to determine how far congress can go in limitingi as a police power, thfe control overinterstate traffic in intoxicating beveracres. r~3 Senator Clark of Wyoming, d man of the committee nh the Judici ary, preferred having the resolution laid over until it could be worded in a way to allow the committee tg^rar port on it intelligently. A general discussion concerning the powers of States and the federal government ,was then precipitated. Mr. Aldrich said the question had been before the committee on judic- In the United States Senate on Wednesday* resolutions were intro duced by Senator Tillman asking the Interstate commerce commission* to report whether any corporation cn gaged in interstate commerce is the owner of the stock of any other cor poration transporting passenger and freight, and calling upon the inter state commerce commission to define the authority of the federal govern- '■ ment and of the States in respect to the control of the liquor traffic through the operation of the inter state commerce law. These reSoln- tions provoked considerable debate •nd werp finally referred to senate committees, though one of them was tranaformed mto a bill. r' - . Senator Culberson spoke oil his resolution calling on the committee cn finance to investigate apd report, upon the causes of the present finan cial stringency and to recommend —Ctteniurw for the prevention of its recurrence. The resolution w%s re ferred to the committee on finance. The senate adjourned at 4 o’clock until Saturday. The house was not in sesnon. The report that the Canadian Pa cific railroad has succeeded in acquir- - ing a majority of the stock of some American railroads having come to the attention of Senator Tillman, he introduced the following resolution: * That the inter-state commerce commission is directed to inform the senate whether any corporation en gaged in interstate commerce are the owners of any of the capitol stock of other corporations which are trans norting passengers and freights; and tfue, the committee is directed to transmit a statement showing the extent and details of such ownership so far as the facts now appear in the office of the commission and to^staS* hrwhat Cases the c jrporat ions, whose stock so owned, have been compelt tors for traffic with the corporations owning their stock.” Senator Aldrich objected to this resolution on the ground that it call- ud for a great deal of information from the interstate commerce com mission which would consume much time, and he thought it should first go to the committee on interstate commerce in order that that com mittee might ascertain how much work would be involved in it. Senator Tillman remarked that the senator from Rhode Island seemed be suspicious. “lam always more or less auapic ious of a resolution coming from the senator from South Carolina,“ retor ted Mr. Aldrich. “Becaufe he wants to get facts?’’ asked Mr. Tillman.. “No.” replied Mr. Aldrich, “be cause he may want to get facts fitt ing into a perconceived idea of what should be done.” Mr. Aldrich insisted upon his ob- yP- n he supreme court of the United States, Mr. Aldrich said, Iteld that the liquor traffic was a question of commerce and not of police power - Senator -Culberson suggested a report of a committee of congress cannot add to or take from the pow- -r of. a State or of the federal gov ernment. The constitution, he said, provides that congress shall regulate interstate commerce ami no act of a legislature of any State could add to or take from-that power. If it- be interstate commerce the State alone could regulate it. “The States”, he said, “will de^ termine for themselves how far the; may go and the federal congress wi determine for itself how far the national government will go.” While all would submit to the ac tion of the supreme court of the United States, he declared that even such a decision would not add to or take awav from the powers delega ted by the constitution. Senator Bailey said the Wilson act was specifically and avowedly for the purpose of permitting the States to regulate this question of the liqupr traffic* - “This was,” he said, one of those hasty pieces of legislation dashed- off in a delirium and such taws are gen erally found to be wanting.” He would have the sovereign pq lice powers of the States restored in this matter so that there would be no question as to their control upon the arrival of a consignment. That he considered the essential necessity. Mr. Bailey said as the law had had been interpreted by the supreme court of the United States, the pack age did not enter a State until its delivery to the. consignee, where upon Mr, Tillman declared that if he should send for a .glass, of water the water might be in the senate before itreached* him. Mr. Knox considered it unfortu nate that the decision of the su preme court of the United States had mainUdned^4hat-4he 'Arrival” of the goods should mean their de livery to the consignee. *T~don’t believe,” he said T - u that MARCH OF NEMESES.

Senator Tillman, also introduced the following resolution on the liqu- uor traffic:- "That the committee on interstate commerce be instructed to consider «ftd report by bill or otherwise what' legislation is desirable or necessary to enabte xne Saiies, in the exercue of their police powers, to control the commerce of liquors and all alcohol- Brookville, Indiana, a curious com bination in the way of a man, says the American- Farmer. He was reacher, farmer, distiller and bay- ceper all rolled in one. He had come into the then territory in 1797, and was the first Methodist minister among the early settlers on the Whitewater. The town of Brook- rvitle, in Franklin county, near the Ohio border, was laid put in 1807, just a century ago, and this preach ing whiskey seller was a main actor in starting the place. On Sunday he preached regularly to his congrega tion of surrounding settlers, mostly small farmers, and after services “setup the liquor” to the “sin-sick souls.’’ Everybody drank in those days, what they called “drams,” the white and water clear product of the old-fashioned copper still. In fact, the first industry in every pio neer community was a distillery, be ing regarded as equally important with the mill that ground the grain. The preachers were all tipplers and many of them drank to excess and the very first of all the temperance reform movements in this country was organized for the express bene fit of the clergy. _ Times have changed. We want our readers, especially the farming class, to take note of the contrast presented between 1807 and 1907 and the eventful century intervening. Take note Of Parson Manwaring, mixing his sermons and whiskey in the same log cabin, wfiere entertain ment was furnished “for man and beast,” 'then look around in the ru ral community where you live and count up the farmers who drffik liq uor to excess or even in moderation. A drinking preacher, of course, wotild no longer be tolerated. He is as extinct as the dodo. No liquor is served on the sideboards as it was in 1807 in every home. Drinking has be come unpopular and unfashionable. No farmer thinks of serving whiskey i!i the harvMlffield, as was universal a hundred and even fifty years ago. The churches are now all standing m aoircTcolumn behind thtatemper ance movement. The WaC.'T. U., the Y. M. C. A., the Endeavorers and other Christian associations are all working heroically against the universal curse. The advance has been great and no class has benefitt- ed more from the reform than the tillers of the soil. There is not a strictly farming community in the United States where the saloon has a particle of show in a standup vote. The farmer has become sober. He finds better use for his corn than to run it through a still; better use for his fruit than to convert it into the brain-maddening “apple-jack.” •Nemesis is marching on?

The fight has been long, the battles have been bloody, the cen turies are strewn with millions of men dead from drink, with countless homes wrecked and ruined, revent the the United States government of py mv inicit dealing in the same.’’ Explaining his purpose in the mat ter Mr. Tillman said it was to pre vent, if possible, tho circumvention of the laws in the interest of prohib ition which are being gtAerally en acted in the Southern States. “Con gress attempted, in enacting the Wh Son law, to protect the people in the enforcement of their State laws, hut the courts have shaded and shaded down the protection until there is practically nothing left of it, ana I want the committee to ascertain whither it is not practicable to give relit f. The decisions of the courts have been on the ground that the law interferers with interstate com merce and it is on this account that I have asked to have the investiga tions made by the interstate com merce commission.” Mr. Tillman holds the express com panies responsible for the evaSi n of the State laws.

It is pointed out that th 3 present congress is more nearly whiskerless than any other in years. And yet- a number of the old populistic ideas are immensely popular with it just now. Tom Watson, who lunched last week with the President, says he “listens well.” that he “knows much but is willing to learn more.” Wat son is not a candidate for the Ananias Club. According to the New York pa pers, another miser has died “in squalor,” leaving behind him $1,547. The Spartanburg Journal says “dur ing times like these a man runs the risk of being classed as a miser if he hoards more than 30 cents.” An exchange says one of the fairly safe things to do in ihii country now adays appears to be to kill somebody. That may be true so far as our courts of so called justice are concerned, but how about the stings of con science and the next world. ■ Found Dead. ■ WmrBtucky, a well known planter near—West Point, Ga., was found should-j with h b throat cut last week.

' - • The • pistol “toter” should be put B°okrr! ou t of busine&e in South Carolina bv Farm Labor Scarce. G. A. Mclnory, of Wellsford, Kansas, expresses the opinion that farmers in his section would have to go out of business but for the mod ern farm machinery. “Why,” he declares v “you can’t hire a man to work on a farm out in that part of the State short of $2.50 to $3.00 a day.” This condition forces far mers to use every kind of machinery that is made for sowing and reapin. . They have steam plows and lots < f them. These machines do the work of many men and teams and in that way farmer? are enabled to plow their wheat land and get it in shai>e for seeding. If they had to wait till they could hire men to plow in the old way they could not raise enough wheat for home consump tion. The interesting feature of this is its refutation of an old theory that the coming of machinery wou’d lower or throw out hand labor. . ft seems, noweveT, the more machn ery ih* higher priced becom<s the inciridual . laborer ant the some m&ihs or other. The great greater difficulty of securing his It seems to be the opinion of tho» fully conversant with the receni Wall street panic that laws wil have to be enacted to prohibit wh is known as buying on margin. In many ways buying on margin is th< more dangerous part of the Wal street game, because it carries greater risks. It is the risk incurred that forces interest rates up and miKes money Bcarce, to tiiir aetn ment of legitimate'business,— The man who buys on margin simply bets on the market. If stocks go up he makes a profit, but if they go down he loses, and has to make good his losses. In making good his losses he generally has to borrow money and, while he may give se curity for it, he is only one of thou- sands who may be forced to “cover” their losses, which, when consider able, result in financial stringency. The man who buys on margin is a gambler pure and simple, and there seems to be no reason why gambling in stocks should not be prohibited just as playing the race? or any game now under legal ban. While those who advocate passing a law prohibiting buying on margin realize that stale legislaton would be only partially effective, they are not without hope that in the end Congress will give attention to the matter just as it has to lotteries and matters of that kind. With both state and national laws, buying on margin could be stamped out, and jf it could be, much would be done to free the country of such periods of apprehension as were undergone a few weeks ago. .iuestssi* 1 hive hid Mvenl jmn npericr.-e m growinf CabAifo pknti .nd ■U other kindi of vegetable plint* far the tnde, vb: Beet pbatt, Oak» plintt, Collard pbnti. tad Toeuto p’-m - I now hive ready doc shipment Meet ptann and Cahhage plant* aa follows: Early Jersey Wakefklda.
