The commjttee on marketing and inking of the South Carolina State Tanners’ union has made report In which It Is recommended that the Stats union at this time “do not give its endorsement of the proposed i of co-operation for mantetlng "'and financing the cot»on crop, that hova been peresented, leaving each individual to act for himself until the plan for the State warehouse system Is completed and enacted into law.” The committee also recommended that each county follow tne example of the Sumter county union of ar ranging with the local bangs at once to furnish a sufficient capital at as low rate of Interest as can ne obtain ed and finance their cotton until such minimum price as shall he recom mended by the national convention Is ot&ttned. “We believe such cordial relations between the grower and the hanks should be cultivated In every county as It will greatly aid the solution of tills' problem whatever final plan U adopted,” says the report of the com mittee. The committee was appnfcit- ed at the annual meeting of the State union held there several days ago t Robert W. Cooper Is the chairman of r the cofnmlttee. At the annual meeting of the State Farmers' union held at Columbia sev eral days ago E. W. Dabbn of Sumter, and president of the union, delivered bis annusl address, In which he point ed out the progress made during the year. The address of President Dabbs is as follows: “It Is the custom, and a good one that at each annual meeting your preifllent shall in a more or less for mal manner give you a resume of the year’s activities. "When I assumed the fesponslbls duties of this honorable position to which you called me by your votes.

QUIMBY REFUSES TO EX- * , CHANGE IT FOR FAVORS. Says the Governor Should Bestow Pardons Where Merited Without • Hope of Reward. The following card from Mr. J. W. L Qulmby, Sr., a prominent resident of Langley, explains Itself: To the Editor of The State: 1 am Informed that Gov. Illease In Ms speech at Langley on Friday night made the statement that he had be friended me or had done me some favor and was surprised to learn that I was not supporting him; If 1 have ever met Gov. Dlease 1 do not remem ber It, and I am sure that I have nev er requested any favor at his hands. He referred to the fact that he had granted a pardon to Hen G. Turner, in whom I was interested, and in whoso behalf I appeared before Gov. Ansel and his board of pardoua; 1 be lieved Turner was entitled to a par don and if Gov. Dlease saw it In the same light It was clearly ms duty as the chief executive of ttoe State to grant It without hope of reward. i spent much valuable time and some money traveling arouna procur ing evidence and getting petitions sighed in this case, but if I had been required to pledge my vote t,o either Cov. Ansel or Gov. Bleaaa or any oth- e- man to secure the pardon it would have been a price greater than 1 was able to pay; for 1 have been u> believe that my vote belonged to my countiy and was not my owu to narter, sell or give away. Therefore I feel that It Is my duty always to vote for the best men for .Ifiee, and in the present race for governor it is my eonsciei on.- jed - it ent that Judge Jones is the i.:a i, hence I am supporting him.

The subject of this tribute belonge< to a class repldly passing away. His life illustrated the philosophy of the olden time. The Southern gentfeman born and reared under the peculiar inlluem . ante bellum times, will live on in hi tory as the highest type of man. Alberto Lytle was born Nov. 19. 1826, on the Swannanoa River, li P/uneomb. county, N. C., in the "Land of the Sky" at the beautiful moun tain home of his father, on his large estates. With the poet, he could exclaim: Swannanoa nymph of Beauty, I would woo thee In my dremms." He departed this life, at his home near A*h*ville, on the 17th, of June 1912, In his eighty seventh year. Like the little babe, falling asleep upon his rnather’s breast this old soldier of the Confederate Army, peacefully passed aw-ay. With the poet we ran say: “We watched him breathing through the night. His breathing soft and low; We thought him dyfng when he slept; and sleep ing when he died.” He married Miss Nancy Henry December 4, 1851. To this Cnion was horn six sons and three daugh ters. His sons surviving him are: J. 11. Lytle of Texas, E. M. Lytle of Birmingham, Ala., F. S. Lytle of Gainesville, Ga., and ,T. E. Lytle of Fatrview, with his daughters, Mrs-. Film McClure of Asheville, Mrs. Sue F. Merrell of Skyland, X. C., and Mrs V. A. Patterson of Dunbarton, S, C.

I read over the letter carefully, not once but twice, and handed It back to him. It seems to me that, considering the fact that he never trusted me, he certainly had confided in me the gravest of secrets, which I wish to say I have faithfully kept, never mentioning the letter un til It afterwards came out In its reg ular course. *■* Eyes and Ears. “He says the reason why he never trusted me was bepause my eyes were set too close together.

The local supporters u’ the Fx-Chief Justice feel the noed of i om i-rted action and hence have reei'l* d to open headquarters from which to manage the fight In that vii'lnlty. This action Is taken inde- [cmlently of any State-wide Jones i rgani.:ation. Two rooms have been rented In the Cleveland building, one of the te-st (.fi.ee buildings in Greenville; a stenographer secured and all prepara- Hoiis made to distribute Jones liter ature. send speakers over the coun ty and In other ways promote the candidacy of Judge Jones. The most striking feature of the headquarters here Is that the man ager of the organization Is G. Hey ward Mahon, twice mayor of that city and until recently an ardent support- fer of Governor Blease. Mr. Mahon's rupture with the Governor was due to the Blease-Klng-Watson episode. Mr. King was one of the political leaders of this section and he and Mr. Mahon control a large element of the voters. Their break with Gov- e:nor Blease, It Is freely predicted, will do more than any other one th.ng to cut down the Blease vote In Gieenville County. Messrs. Mahon and King, previous to the break with the Governor, were what might be termed the “Blease bosses” of Green ville. Adam C. Wellburn, Esq., a prominent Greenville lawyer, who has been a strong friend of Gov. Blease up to a few days ago, has also repud iated Blease and come out for Jones.
