Ehrhardt Etchings. Y
Ehrhardt, August 24.?Old "Sol," a
who has been hidden from us since ^
about the first of the month, has sues
ceeded in showing us his face again. ^
His smile in return is greeted by ev- ^
erv one as we had become tired of
the lone time of wet. drizzly and slop- ?
py weather. **
The farmers are now in their
fields again to finish gathering fodder,
hay, etc. Some are picking cotton,
and with good weather, the gins
will soon begin their hum.
What beautiful nights we are hav- z
ing! Some are enjoying them with p
auto rides; some out strolling, while jj
most of the young folks seem to like
the shadow of the old oak on the c
piazza, where nothing seems to both- j(
er them, unless it is the clock calling \
out midnight too soon.
Some thought themselves all alone e
j the other evening as the male voice a
was heard to ask "who is sweet?" g
and a fine little voice replied "both
of us." So I guess this good weath- g
er by day and by night will be best g
for the man with the marriage license
for sale as well as the farmer. n
Everybody is anticipating good re- j
suits from the fight against our worst
enemy, "whiskey," to be made here
Thursday. We fe^l that we will cer- M

)er The justices of the supreme court,
en and the circuit judges of the State
sitting en banc here this morning
C7, heard the petition of John Henry
nd Chappell, a taxpayer of Newberry, for
injunction restraining the prohibiiul
tion referendum election on Septemnn
ber 14. The injunction is asked for
on the ground that the act is uncon
ma stitutional in that the legislature
ast cannot delegate its duties to the people,
and because the expenditure of
\t- $34,500 of the taxpayers' money for
holding the election would be contrale,
ry to law.
ier The petitioner was represented b>
Frank G. Tompkins and Cole L.
lay Blease, former governor. The State
officers and board of election comlay
missioners were represented by Thos.
H. Peeples, attorney general, and
is Fred H. Dominick, assistant attorney
general. * D. W. Robinson and W. B.
ax? DeLoach, of Camden, were granted
permission to file certain authorities
n? on behalf of the prohibitionists.
Each side was allowed forty-five
'en minutes with ten minutes given the
la~ petitioner, for reply. Mr. Tompkins
opened for the petitioner,
pte stressing the ground that the
on legislature cannot submit its
functions and delegate its duties to
the people, and contending that the
act calling for the referendum is in
0f violation both of the constitution of
ar_ the United States and of the State
of South Carolina,
or- Assistant Attorney General Domins,
nick presented the side of the consti0.
tutionality and legality of the refer00
endum, piling up a mass of authorijst
ties and contending that the legislate
ture could submit such a question to
iey the people, the source of all authori
ell ty. He cited decisions 01 ine soum
m- Carolina courts in which they have
ier refused to interfere with elections by
ter injunctions, saying no such action
had ever been taken by the courts
of this State. He contended that the
petitioner had an ample remedy at
law other than by applying for an
t,e injunction. He said the question was
at a political one and that the courts
)ut had uniformly taken the position
that the settlement of a political
t0 question was one with which they
' had nothing to do.
Former Governor Blease made a
vigorous reply in his ten minutes of
time. The question, he said, is
n ? '
strictly a legal and not a political
. one. "If I had wanted to make it a

GOLD TO BE PLACED IX SOUTH
ERX RESERVE BANKS.
This Would Enable Banks to Kedif
count Loans on Cotton Secured
by Warehouse Receipts.
Washington, August 23.?Trea?
ury officials tonight made public a
announcement by Secretary AIcAdo
that, in view of th? action of the a
lies in putting cotton on the contra
band list, he would, if it becam
necessary, deposit ?30,000,000 o
more in gold in the federal reserv
banks in Atlanta, Dallas and Ricl
mond for the purpose of enabling th
reserve bafiks to rediscount loams o

made by national banks and Stat
banks belonging to the federal r<
serve system.
The gold would be deposited ten
porarily, at least, without interes
charge. It w?s explained that if j
appeared that the object could be a<
complished with greater efficienc
thereby, the deposits would be mad
directly with national banks agre<
ing to lend the money on cotton 2
a rate not to exceed 6 per cent.
Secretary McAdoo authorized th
announcement from his summ?
home at North Haven, Maine. ]
came at the close of a day of speci
lation in official circles as to the nj
ture of steps which the entente pov
ers have indicated they will take t
uphold the cotton market in the fac
of their contraband order.
Secretary's Statement,
"In the exercise of the discretio
given to him by law," read the treaj
ury statement, "Secretary McAdc
said that the government will, ft
the time being, charge no interest o
these deposits in federal reser\
banks; that such action is justifie
by the unusual situation reepectin
cotton caused by the European wai
that he considers it his duty to us
every available means to help tt
cotton producer of the South in th
circumstances; that it is a matter <
economic importance to the entii
nation that those who have produce
the cotton crop shall have a fair o]
portunity to dispose of it gradual!
and in an orderly manner so the
may not be forced, through inabilil
to market their cotton gradually, I
sell it, at sacrifice prices.
"The secretary said that one of h
chief objects was to create a bas
for such enlarged credit in the Sout
that the banks will have ample r
sources to extend to producers sue
accommodations that they will 1
able to carry cotton in warehous*
for a reasonable length of time unt
it can be marketed advantageously
I to exceed 6 per cent.
'"The secretary declared he beliei
I ed that there was no occasion ic
i - ' - . - v
In Order to Do This.
"In order to accomplish this, I
said, the national and State banl
which are members of the federal r
serve system should make loans c
warehouse receipts for insured co
ton at low rates of interest; that tt
banks can well afford to carry cottc
for producers at 6 per cent., especia
ly if they are able to rediscount co
ton paper at the federal resen
banks at a much lower rate than
per cent.; that the credit resourc*
of the banks of the country are grea
er than ever before in our histoi

banks should not, in cooperatic
with the merchants of the Soutl
help the cotton producers with loai
at low rates in the present peculit
situation.
"The federal reserve board, tt
secretary said, had a right to dete
mine the rate of interest which tl
federal reserve banks can charg
member banks on notes or loans s>
cured by insured and warehouse
cotton rediscoanted with federal r<
serve banks.
Sure of Cooperation.
"He has been unable to consult h
colleagues of the federal reser\
board on account of his absence froi
Washington, but feels confident <
their cooperation in every reasonab!
way.
"Mr. McAdoo said, however, th?
should it appear that the object i
view could be accomplished wit
greater efficiency to the cotton pr<
ducers, the merchants and the bant
of the South by depositing goveri
ment funds in the national banks d
rect instead of in the federal resen
banks, he would take that cours
and make deposits in such nations
banks as would give him the assui
ance that the money so deposited c
the credit based thereon would t

j COTTON MADE CONTRABAND.
Kupland Puts It on Absolute List and
|. France Will Take Same Action.
London, August 21.?Cotton has
been declared absolute contraband j
by Great Britain, according to a |
statement issued by the foreign office I
this afternoon. I
The statement declares that the ;
government proposes to initiate
^ measures to relieve depression which
might temporarilly disturb the cotton
market because of the contraband
L_ order. /
It was learned upon inquiry at the
foreign office that the French governe
ment will issue a similar notice early - 1%
tomorrow. " ^
The announcement follows:
n "His majesty's government has deg
clared cotton absolute contraband.
e While the circumstances might have
justified such action at an earlier period,
his majesty's government are
glad to think that local conditions of
,t American interests likely to be afit
fected are more favorable for such a
step than they were a year ago, and,
v moreover, his majesty's government
e contemplate initiation of measures to
relieve as far as possible any abnorLt
mal depression which might temporarily
disturb market conditions."
e The declaration is effective from
[t A royal proclamation concerning -1^0
j_ the action was published in a suppleim
