Tub rainy season is thought to have about spent its force and very soon the army at Luzon will begin a forward movement with the intention of punishing the natives to the extent of bringing them to terms soon. It must be done soon, very soon for political purposes and must be arranged to perpetuate the MeKinley administration another term. Miles, Merritt and Brooke., itis understood will go to the Philippines and the army will bo pushed forward in three grand columns. It will not do to give any one man the privilege of round' gup the native., as it would bring him forward too prominently for the presidential nomination. So the administration will divide the honors there in order to control the nominat ion. Eykiiy indication is pleasing to our people. Our tobacco industry has surpassed all expectations and dis bursed a good pile of money which has been of inestimable benefit to the farmers in this section, who have hitherto had to wait until the late fall to realize anything from the principal crop?cotton. Tobacco, in its infancy has proved a great success, and the most sanguine hesitate in making figures for 1900. The crop will be vastly increased and those who have planted this season will have the experience of one year to aid them in making the second crop, while those who have not plantted and will do so, will have fewer hindrances to overcome in the boginning as they will profit by the experience of the pioneers. Prosperity. push, perseverance and progress arc apparent all around and the spirit of confidence which is the most needed auxiliary of progress, is not wanting. Our people are hopeful ui uiLn-ascd progress and just no Ion# as these conditions prevail, just so Ion# will this section be for#* in# its way to the front. In its first year Horry has taken an enviable position among the tobacco markets of the State, conclusions not alone our own, but based on the opinions of men who can speuk intelli#ently on public matters, principally tobacco.

Editor. 1 notice in the Herald of the 7th in it., an article from Mr. J. C. Price, which alleges that an Act of the Legislature has doubled up the warehouse expenses on the tobacco farmers of the State. He especially calls on "H. II W." Capt. Coles, "Pocahontas" and myself, to answer his allegations and charges. Why he should associate me with tho Warehouse Company, I fail to comprehend, as I do not own a cent in it, 'nor have I a leaf of tobacco for sale. 1 know but very little of their business methods, and shall not attempt to justify, or condemn any of their business methods, but, recognizing the responsibility of a public servant to give an account of his stewardship to his con stituents, 1 will say for the information of Mr. Price and other readers of your paper, that there was but one act passed by the last session of the Legislature in regard to the tobacco industry, and that act fixes the rate of warehouse charges, and its object is to prevent the warehouse companies from imposing exorbitant charges upon the farmer. Now, when Mr. Price alleges that it has doubled the charges on the farmers, his statement is in absolute contradiction of both the letter and the spirit of the act. If his allegations be true, then the inevitable conclusion must be, that the Legislature did not have common sense enough to pass an act that could control the warehouses, but in attempting to do so, they have doubled the evil they attempted to cure Now if he cannot, point out some clause, word, or sentence in the Act which has consummated an outrage upon the tobacco farmers, then he stands convicted of maliciously and willfully, or ignorantly misrepresenting both the State Legislature and the facts in the case. Now, Mr. lOditor. the casual reader would nat 11 . ? it. .i it. 1 1 1 l uruuy suppuee uiui wo uuwi no uea rs from Mr. Price, eminated from a party who foil himself injured by the Horry Tobacco Warehouse Coinpany. Hut the facts arc, that Mr. Price has from eight to I welve acres of tobacco and has not sold ono pound in tho 1 lorry Warehouse, bu! that he sells in Marion and other foreign markets, selling some in Danville. We grant him the right to sell his own products where he pleases, but we insist that no patriotic citizen of I lorry can alTord by untrue and reckless statement.' to create friction by appealing to class prejudice, and thus strike down an enterprise in its infancy which promises such wonderful developments and prosperity in Horry as the tobacco industry does at this time. It has already during its existence of about sixty days, turned loose from #15,000 to #20,000 in the county, but Mr. Price says that the said act doubles the expenses on the farmers. 8o 1 must cull his attention to the fact that Horry county is exempt from the provisions of the act. Marion is under its operation now and if the act has doubled the expenses on the farmers as he says, why does he prefer selling ir Marion where the act is in force, instead of Hony where it is not? Mr. Editor, 1 am reliably informed that the Horry Warehouse charges the very same expenses as provided in the act, al though it is exempt from its provisions. I fear that Mr. Price's county pride is subservient to Marion in (luences and lie would subordinal Horry enterprise, progress and prosperity to the commercial and linaneia! interests of Marion, his former home, lie may have also a political axe to grind and he thinks to force myself and the other Legislative delegates, together with the Warehouse Company to turn the stone for him. If so, it i,s only fair lin vnlinrnu mo I ? .? L.U ? V..MV MV ft \ i n ? V o MM nun tu VUIV II III) breath a while and let some of the other fellows do the turning for him. Respectfully, ,!

When it is considered that the average price of new music, written and composed by popular authors, is from lit) to -l") cents, the u iun-u'u enterpriseofTho World in giving the song uwuy with a big Sunday newspaper, for which only 5 cents is charged, is apparent.
