END UNOFFICIAL TALKS
Ret>el Chieftain Preparing Manifesto
Betting Forth His Position With
Regard to Relations With the Unit*
ed States, Which He Intends to
Follow np With Vigorous Fighting.
Francisco Escudero, minister of
foreign relations in the Carranza
Cabinet, asked William Bayard Hale,
President Wilson’s agent at Nogales,
Bonora, Mexico, late Tuesday to pre
sent his credentials before continu
ing further the conferences which
hare been under way there informal
ly "for several days. This was inter
preted by many as a virtual demand
for recognition of the Constitutional
1st revolution before the exchanges
between the Carranzaistas and the
Washington government are conclud
ed.
"For our part unofficial negotla-
tlans are ended," Escudero said. "We
have asked Mr. Hale to present his
formal credentials. I would receive
them as minister of foreign relations
and transmit them to my chief. We
have been very glad to meet Mr. Hale
on terms of friendliness, knowing of
his previous investigations In Mexico
and In view of his relation with Mr
Wilson and Mr. Bryan. The Cabinet
members on previous occasions met
as Individuals only. The exchange of
Impressions now has ended."
Announcement was made that On
Carranza was preparing a manifesto
setting forth his position with regard
to the International and Internal re
lattons of Mexico, to be given out at
an early date.
Reports of continued military sue
ceases have Increased the confidences
of the revolutionary leaders and thel
estimate of the dignity and Interna
Importance of their cause Gen Car

Itary headquarters back to Hermosll

where the Constltulonallst movement

The announcement of the Constltu
tldnallsts demand was a surprise No
one on the American side expected a
request for formal recognition of the
Insurgents, even In the event that
permission to import war munitions
from the T’nlted States was granted
At the beginning of the negotiations
Gen Carranza asserted that the Con
stitutionalists were not seeking rec
ognition— In fact did not desire It —
and only wanted the embargo on the
Importation of arms lifted A change
had been noted In the demeanor of
the Constltulonallats since the cap-
tpure of Jaure* and the subsequent
success of the revolutlonallsts that
have been reported from different

MOB MEMBERS BROUGHT INTO
SPARTANBURG COURT.
Grand Jury Asks Solicitor to Prose
cute Four Men Named in Present
ment for Recent Attack on Jail.
Solicitor Albert E. Hill, of Spar
tanburg. is called upon, in a present
ment niade to Judge DeVore Thurs
day by the Spartanburg county grand
Jury, to prosecute members of the
mob who on the night of August 18
last dynamited the county jail in an
effort to lynch Will Fair, a negro ac
cused of assaulting a white woman.
Four men are named by the grand
Jury as members of the lynching mob
and bench warrants for their arrest
were Issued Thursday evening by
Judge DeVore.
"After careful investigation Into
the assault on the Jail," the grand
Jury reports, "we find that certain
parties, utterly disregarding the lives
of our officers and the county prop
erty, did make an assault on the jal
with the intent of taking the life of
Will Fair. We present to the court
W. R. Belcher, Jesse Wolfe, Bob Wll
son and Robert Ward, and ask our
solicitor to prosecute them,”
Foreman W. G. Query, of the
grand Jury, declined to disclose the
method of procedure followed In the
grand Jury’s Investigation, saying
that to make it public might Inter
fere with the apprehension of other
alleged members of the mob, who are
being sought.
The grand Jury's action Is without
precedent. Fair was not lynched
During a battle, which raged the
greater part of the night and
which three men were shot, Sheriff
W J White and hls deputies held the
mob at bay and In the mornina splr
Ited Fair out of the Jail and took him
to the State penitentiary at Columbia
He was tried at a special term of
court and acquitted, thou gh hls ac
cuser. the young wife of a farmer,
swore positively that he had assault
ed her Her story was believ.d by
the Jury to be an hallucination due
to a condition peculiar to her sex

The New York World thinks that
tho foremost reason why financial
legislation is difficult Is found in the
fact that the great banking Interest
Is fairly well satisfied with things as
they are. It will approve of no change
that It does not dictate. If It cannot
have a central .bank licensed by law,
It prefers to keep the rank growth of
an evil system that It now has—a
central bank Infact but not In name
To preserve this Instltulon nothing
has been found more useful than the
quarrels of the people’s representa
tives, their pride of opinion, their
unwillingness to compromise, and the
many violent and irrational measures
which such conditions necessarily
produce. While our millions of dog
matic financiers dispute and fight, the
few professionals keep all the privi
leges that they have gained and reach
out for more.
The first Bank of the United States
had a capital of $10,000,000; the sec
ond, $35,000,000. These banks were
considered so powerful, they were ad
ministered with such favoritism anc
they were so offensive In their politi
cal relations that the Democratic par
ty for more than a generation waged
war upon the very idea of a centra
bank and made It hateful forever.
Yet without public approval or act
of Congress we have today what
amounts to a central bank so much
greater than either Bank of the Unit
ed States as to make those creations
of our early monopolists look like
toys by comparison. While frenzied
political financiers In Washington
wrangle over the details of a Bank
ing and Currency Bill, the greatest
concentration of banking energy ever
known goes blithely along, and
through Its spokesmen Introduces
new- contentions calculated to defeat
action of any kind

TRUSTS FIGHTING IT.

LaFollett Seamun’t Servitude
Has Their Enmity.
As was to be expected the
ship-owners are up in arms aga
the LaFollette Seaman’s Servit
bill. In their effort to defeat the hill
they do not hesitate to read into the
bill provisions it does not contain.
Does anybody know of any similar .
bill designed to apeliorate the condi
tion of seamen or guard the safety of
passengers that did not meet with the
opposition of the shipping trust if the
bill entailed an expense to the trustT
To be sure just after the Titanic
disaster shipping firms of their own
volition inaugurated some reforms
because that catastrophe was so stu
pendous and revealed some defects
so startling in their character that
public opinion compelled action with
out waiting for the finding of tho
court of enquiry. But even then tho
companies fought against some of
the most thorough improvements sug
gested. Beneficiaries of privilege die
hard, but they will die all the same.
In every case where reforms by
legislation have been invoked tho
shipping companies have tried to de
feat the measures introduced In con
gress or in the British parliament.
When in that parliament the Plmsoll
"Merchant Shipping Act”, designed
to prevent ships from putting to sea
in an unsafe condition, was enacted
in 1 876, a great hue and cry waa
made that its passage would ruin the
shipping Industry, but it passed and
never has British shipping been more
prosperous than since the bill became
law.
So It will be with American
and ocean shipping If the LaFollS* ' •
bill becomes law, as most likelySt
will. To be sure the companies will
have to Incur considerable expense to
meet Its requirements, but It all will
be m the interest of safety and hu
manity If the companies fear it will
ruin them let them cut down the
palm gardens and a whole lot of oth
er unnecessary luxuries on board ship
over which in their wild competition
they have gone crazy ip recent years.
Human life and welfare are o f far
n.nre consequence than a lot of super-
"-ious luxuries Installed to please

There will be a merry scramble for

The term of Banks L. Caughman will

"I believe that John L. McLaurln

He might have entered the senatorial

The Dreamer Does Good.
On the walls of one of the rooms
in the Tower of London is to be seen
the fooling inscription: "To live with
out a dream, what Is that?” It was
written centuries ago and no one
knows who wrote it. The man who
has no dream or vision will never ac
complish much In this world. The
dreams of great men of former days
are the realities of 4o-day. But for
their visions the world would be
distinctly poorer than it is. Lest any
may think that only the great can
have such ideals and make it possible
for their visions to assume tangible
form, let it not be overlooked that
every one ought to have bis dream of
what may he and ought to be, and
that his own life will be enriched and
the world made better if he seeks
with earnestness and wisdom to make
his dream an acrrallty.
