The little niite box left in your home by the Salvation Army is very important owing to the fact our recent drive did not reach the goal. Funds are very short and our good friend and faithful worker, Ensign Davis, has suffered a cut in his salary and we are unable to see how the man with a family is to live decently on his present income. The Salvation Army has made many poor children and families happy Christmas by sending them a basket of eatables and we trust the good people of Union will make it possible for them to do the same thing this year. Please see that members of your family and your friends put something urnrf K urLiln in tVin rnifn Kov I bring cheer and happiness to many pcor hut worthy people. I thank you. A. D. Cooper, Pres.

STRIKERS BEGIN TO CAUSE TROUBLE Chicago, Dec. 6.?Violence marked the second day of the strike of packing house workers in the several cities of the Middle West and resulted in the calling out of national guard troops tcnight to patrol the packing plant district in south St. Paul. At Fort Worth two strike sympathizers were shot and wounded, and a negro, who, it is said, did the shooting, was severely beaten. At Omaha, Neb., missiles were thrown by various persons, including women, in clashes between strike sympathizers and workmen. Policemen with drawn revolvers held a crowd of 300 persons at bay here today until reserves arrived, after arresting strike sympathizers said to have beaten a workman as he boarded a street car. A man and his daughter, packing plant employees, were twice attacked by strike sympathizers as they started to leave a packing plant and several arrests were made for the minor disturbances. The calling out of troops at St. Paul followed attempts of the packing companies to bring workers to the plant to take the place of the strikers, labor leaders refusing to discontinue the picket. Union officials asserted that 6,000 more workerg had joined the strikers' ranks in Chicago while the- packers reported that between 9 and 95 per cent of their men were working and that the places of strikers had been filled from the hundreds of unemployed applying for work. While spokesmen for the . packers admitted "that more emnlovoes had joined the walkout, they also asserted that part of those that went out Monday had returned and that there was no difficulty in hiring men. In other packing centers of the country representative* of the "Big Five" packers reported the strikers returning to work while the officials of the Amalgamated Meat Cuttera- and Biteher Workmen of North Anwjca, which called the strike, Said the ranks df the strikers were being augmented. f > thelitis .Hayes, pre^idgnt of the jjjj other sections but that more men were out than on Monday whn the union estimated 29,000 workmen were on strike outside Chicago. Figures made public by the packers showed that they admitted only about 2,500 men were on strike here. Fort Worth, Dec. 6.?Two brothers, Tom and Tracy Macklin, strike sympathizers, were shot and seriously wounded late today in a disorder growing out of the local packing house strike. Fred Rouse, a negro, who is said to have been responsible for the shooting of the Macklin brothers, was taken to a hospital following a ?Cvere beating at the hands of a large crowd of men. The shooting took place in front of the Armour & Co. plant. The South Carolina Home Producers' Association The Home Demonstration Club people of South Carolina under the leadership of Miss Christian N. South are beginning to realize that a cooperative organization handling the products of many producers is in a better position to establish and maintain outlets for these products than are the individual growers. As a result, we have a statewide organization known as the South Carolina Home Producers' association. This organization, founded as it is for the purpose of disposing of the surplus products of the farms converting the same into cash, has the best opportunity to succeed as does any or ganization which fills a well-defined need. It is a well known fact that organi| zations brought into being as result of an enthusiasm created by an appeal to prejudices or misconceptions, are not nearly so secure as one created by a well recognized need. Successful, cooperative marketing ventures usually come from small beginl nings, and are the result of a gradual j permanent growth.

He was operated on ten days i ago and has been from the first a , very ill man, his illness resulting in 1 his death la3t night. .1 The burial will be in Gilead ceme: tery, Jonesville, tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock, the services being con| ducted by Rev.

C. * j Jm A Jf As I read and learn ot^the things ?< that are transpiring in th^ world today I ask myself the questior? wither : are we drifting? There are *m<A"d ' 1 crimes committed today among the 1 civilized people of the earth than has I ever been known and it is not con- , I fined to any one class, but seems to i be a universal epidemic, j" I see where sons arc slaying fath- ; , ers and vice versa. More women mur- < dered than I have ever known before. , The papers are daily telling all over our land of such murders. Our pails are inadequate to hold the continuous 'j stream of criminals that are pouring into them from all walks of life and MA am A in eioeVkt ?.w v.?M M4 oiguv. We are supposed to be living in a i prohibition. country, but let us look ; and see if that is bo. I was reading of 87 stills captured in a neighboring ;5 state, but hot one capture of those j .that were operating them. It seems ' ;t<P?>> that moonshiners arid bootlegget* have organised ?<! formed a nojjdon-wide com bination | one, that has been in existence 2,000 years before Christ. Since the days of Xenophen to the present time and i will be until time is no more. Your correspondent took a trip that includ! ed a radius of 80 miles or more and at every stop he was approached and j given to understand that he could get the liquid that cheers from $1.50 to ! i $3.00 per quart. I found boys ranging from 15 years to hoary hair men in ' declining years and one of them was 1 totally blind and so as the digest says, we are on the eve of the milleni ium. We have put away the flowincr howl out of which it was represented that serpents wriggled. We have closed the saloon where we were told nine-tenths of the crime originated and what kind of a time are we having? Murder is rife as ever ajid more ; common. The burglar insurance comj panies have had to raise rates two or 1 three times on account of robberies. And so I ask again whither art. we ! going? I know that we are drifting to the grave and when we enter it we | have passed through the last portal. I We have drifted upon the life in eternity. Let that be what it may. Uncle Zach.

HARDWICK SPEAKS ' AT CONFERENCE Charleston, Dec. G.?A masterly adi dross on the subject of taxation, the feature of which was his whole-hearted recommendation of a system.of income taxation for states, was delivered at the morning session of the governors' conference, held at the South Carolina hall, by Gov. Thomas W. Hardwick of Georgia. Gov. Nathan L. Miller of New York presided and the governors were all present, an addition to the number being Gov. Henry J. Allen of Kansas, who arrived last night. Following Governor Hardwick's able presentation of his subject, several governors took part in a discussion, and so interested was the conference on the question that on a motion made by Governor Cooper, wis 'decided to continue the topic at tonight'^ session. Much of what Govc.rftor Hardwick had-to say as\t<5 conditions in Georgia , applied to this state, and Governor Cooper followed the address with particularly keen interest. Governor Hardwick cohamenced his adftjpess by reminding hiS hearers that taxes ,?bf course, aro^nTways disagreeable, and stated that it was the duty of state governments, before raising taxes, to reduce expenses as much as possible without impairing efficiency. The war brought about, he stated, a tendency toward a multiplicity of bureaus, both federal and state organizations, whose purpose was to "regulate everything and everybody"; and now was the time to get rid of the unnecessary ones, and in this way cut down governmental expenses. Governor Hardwick then stated that he had always believed that a government should be supported chiefly out of the net income of the people whom it represents; and that a? a member of each house of congress he ' voted for the constitutional amendment which made a federal income tax lawful, and for the legislation carrying out the new provisions of the constitution.

House of Governors Concludes Conference Charleston, S. CM Dec. 7.?The busI iness session ended the thirteenth annual conference of the house of governors, which convened Monday in this city. Dots of Clinton As I am spending a few days over in Laurens county I thought I would drop the good old Times a few more lines. All the frmers of this county are busy people. 1 have seen more grain sowed in Laurens county up to this time that 1 have ever seen in my life, more plowing than any other county. To be honest with Union ' county people it would do them some ' good if they would visit Laurens county and see how they farm and take * care of their land, heavy plowing with ' all kinds of compost and litter, deep terraces and ditches with draw bridges ever the ditches and terraces in order to save the ditches. I see land here today that will make fine corn or cotton when 15 years ago it wouldn't have made a bushel of peas to the acre. There are some fine people in old Laurens. The people at the cotton mills seem , to thin there won't he anything made another year if the farmers keep moving to the mills, and I am beginning to believe the same thing. Clinton people are expecting a big Christmas this year. I hope the correspondents of the good old Times will have a joyous Christmas, i Busy Bee. I * F. J. Pittman of Greenwood is ii\ Union today. He says Greenwood is decked out in royal style to receive l Marshal Foch and even the railroad cross ties have a welcome painted on 1 them and every building and tree i wears gala attire. That is going to be a regular South Carolina welcome that Marshal Foch gets. NO AGREEMENT ON FOREIGN DEBT Washington, Dec. 0. ? The sehate finance committee quit work tonight after a day's discussion of the foreign debt bill without having reached an agreement on which the measure could be reported to the senate. Further consideration of the question was postponed until Thursday. The house pioposal placing the power of negotiating b tsos of settlement of 11 o w.v 'onus ;n the bends < f supervisory commission of live n.> hers as the stumbling block w'.r I upset the plan of committee leaders to have the set ate at once begin work on the measure. It was understood that several 'i> publicans were inclined to support the amendment of Senator Sim mons of North Carolina, rank ing Democrat on the committee, which would strictly limit the power of the commission. Some Democrats, however, were said to oppose the Simmons amendment and the North Cars- ' lina senator has called a meeting ? f the minority members for tomorrownight at which time he hopes to hare them decide on united support of it. 1 Mr. Simmons' amendment provides that there can be no cancellation < i remission of principal or interest on any of the loans and specifies that : the interest payments must not be delayed longer than July of next year. The amendment provides further that 1h<> United Stuff's ek-ill not nnrmil interchange of bonds of the debtor power in payment of the obligations except in the case of newly created 1 governments. The commision would 1 be left discretionary powers in dealing with debtor governments except : as to the cancellation or remission of the debt. Big Case in Newberry Newberry, Dec. 4.?Court of common pleas, in session here this week with Judge Edward Mclver, of Cheraw, presiding, has had its time almost wholly taken up for the entiie week on one of the most interesting and far-reaching cases that has ever been before the courts of this county. The case was that pf William.-jPolcufacturers company, of Whitmire, S. C., against J. P. Stevens & Co., of Now York city. The case went to the jury late Thursday afternoon. Late Friday afternoon a verdict for the defendants was reached and reported. The case in question was for the recovery of $000,000 damages which the plaintiffs claimed that they had sustincd by the premeditated plans "f the J. P. Stevens company, by which, be alleges, they secured bis signature u> a contract making over to them of his stock in the company and securing for them the resignation of himself as president, as well as the rcsigna i i*?!i i?i hit* iinauiriUM'n iiuiii uir illrectorate of the company. The piai i tiffs farther claimed that the whole scheme was concocted on the part of the defendant to secure control of the mill and that they immediately elected new officers and directors and her- ,e to run the mill at an enormous ex pense in order to depreciate the stock and r< duce the earnings with tin- direct aim of placing the plaint ill's where they would not be able to buy back the stock. The case began Monday morning and was hard fought throughout. Representing Coleman were It. Beverly Herbert, of Columbia; H. M. Edmunds, of Columbia; Hunt, Hunt & Hunter and Dr. George B. Cromer, of the Newberry bar. Representing th< defendants were Grier & Dark, of Greenwood; J. E. McDonald, of Winnsboro; Mr. Patterson, of New York city; Mr. Cooke, of Charlotte, and K. S.

Three persons were killed. Herrera surrendered the powers to the provisional government. V V HARDING GOES BEFORE CONGRESS Washington, Doc. 0.? Launching of the new session of congress was completed today with delivery by President Harding of his opening address at a joint session of the senate and house made notable by the presence of delegates to the armament limitation conference. Proposals for a flexible taritT, adjustable by the president or the tariff commission for an industrial tribunal and for a constitutional amendment to stop the flood of tax free securities, were the president's outstanding statements on domestic affairs. Turning to the international field the president said of the armament limitation conference that "a most gratifying world accomplishment is not improbable." He also urged enactment of the measure for funding the allied debt, proposed food relief for starving Russia, expressed atisfaction over the nation's being at peace and held out promise of aid to the world in war restoration. A great reception was given tinpresident by what was said to be one of the largest audiences ever jammed into the house chamber. Demonstrations of a full minute each occurred when he entered at 12:30 o'clock and again when he concluded at 1:20, the entire audience standing and applauding. Applause also broke into his address frequently, especially from house members when 42 discussed topics of administration policy and with especial volume when he advanced his plan for a tribunal to weigh disputes between capital and labor and declared that labor organizations should not be permitted to "exact unfair terms of employment or subject the public to actual distress." The audience, which included the cabinet, diplomatic corps and many high officials, besides the foreign delegates, also responded warmly when, with manifest feeling, the president urged aid for starving peoples of Russia and proposed a gift of 10,000,000 bushels of corn and 1,000,000 bushels of seed grain. Presentation later of more .detailed views on the shipping situation, was ^ promised by the executives, ill declat- * in g that h e o ppos^cj a bro^^on of ^ ^ Jones act. Such abrogations, would cause "chaos." A suggestion for * * ' % a plan for "reimbursement" to ship operators was accepted as an advance statement of his previously announced views as to ship subsidies. The president's recommendations wore received by Republican leaders with widespread expressions of approval. although some declared that one or more of the executive's proposals would be difficult if not im possible ot early enactment. Prompt response came to portions of the president's roe >mmendations. Immediately after the joint session the senate passed a hill, urged by Secretary lloover of the department of commerce as head of the American Relief administration, authorizing doration to the administration of surplus medical and other stores of the at my. Legislation to meet tin- president's recommendations for flexible taritf rate< also was pro pi sod immediately bv Senator Smoit (Republican) of I * t ah. He introduced amendments to the pending tariff bill which would authorize the president by proclamation to reduce or increase tariff rates based upon American valuation. Hearings on the tariff bill will be resumed tf morrow by the senate finance committee. Notice U. D. C. The members of the William Wallace chapter. I*.
