Tiik weather this year has done
more toward reducing the acreago
of cotton than the farmers meeting
did last winter. In many parts of
the country providence ha? accomplished
the end that was so much
desired.
?
* *
Since tho rains of a short time
ago ceased, the farmers have been
busy in their crops all over the county.
Grass and weeds threatened
to take some of their crops and this
would have been the caso in some
instances if the rain had continued.

A tobacco trust man, William II.
McAllister, who was before the
United States grand jury as a witness
in tho investigation of tobacco
trust, refused to produce papers and
to anwser the questions put to him
about the business, and was lined in
the sum of $5.00 for contempt of
court and sent to jail there to remain
until he is williug to anwser
the questions put to him. He
tuesce.., lva,)t there until he ans"
' his remaining life.

-It was getting very alrv . ?, of cases civil
t.v about, town until p, r0port every week,
" l,a'1 (,f few years ago thero was
< "' th?parcily an average of one caso in a
month. The Legislature found it
?wcssury to increase the salary of
tl\ magistrate at Conway, as tho
old salary was entirely too small to
pay for amount of work that is now
required of him.
*
* *
In a short time as many as four
now stores will be open in Conway
adding that much to the growth of
the town as a business center. We
are told that the four new stores
are already rented. With a greatly
increased number of stores and
mercantile establishments carrying
large lines of merchandise, Conway
is IV position to attract trade and
draw it away from other places
that have been getting a share of a
certain trade in the past. There is
talk of still now store buildings that
may be ready for occupancy by the
lirst of next year, possibly before.
We like to see this progress.
*
* *
The commissioners of internal
improvements have made their report
to the town council including
therein the report of the civil engineer
who was imployed by them
to look into the situation here. In
short the commissioners have decided
to put in drains from 3d
to Gth avenues inclusive, from Iteaty
street eastward to Kingston lake.
Storm water will be taken caro of
by hollow drains along tho streets
running north and south and carried
into the cross town drains
through man holes arranged at the
crossings. This will cost about
$l(i,000.00. They will lot tho contract
for lighting the town tto some
private individual or corporation.
If they have funds sufficient they
will pave Main street from the dopot
to .the graded school building.

More than a decade ago thero
was one curlcy headed lawyer in
this State who jumped upon the
uiimuco uunu vragon ana roao to
congress thtroon. He was promoted
to a seat in the U. S. Senate,
but had not been there Ion#
t.'f .re in- became the tool of the
ad mini.miration and took on himself
the Herculean task of organiz
ing a decent republican party in
South Carolina, as if such thing
was possible. For his faithfulness
to his party which ho had betrayed
he fearod to go before the people
for re-election. That same curley
headed Johnnie is now doing his
best to rido the Southern Cotton
Association in the same way he rode
the alliance, At Greenville ho showed
that ho had political aspirations
when ho at temped to get on another
popular wave. It will be best for
the Southern Cotton Association, if
it would not suffer tho fate of the
alliance, to drop J. L. McLaurin
and tell him that another can be
had to do the work he is doing. It
won't do for the Southern Cotton
Association to be ridden by any such.

LAW BEING* VIOLATED.
In one of the counties a dispenser
has been presented for failing to
use the requests required by the
dispensary law Nto be tiled by the
purchaser before the whiskey is delivered
to him. The fact brings to
mind the disregard of many provis- |
ions of the dispensary law in nearly
evory county where a dispensary is
located. There has been opposition
to the dispensary law ever since its
passage and for various rensous.
Some have opposed it on account of
principle, others merely through
prejudice. Any dissatisfaction with
the law that has arisen siucc it has
been in operation in the Stale may
be laid to the fact that those charged
with the due execution and carrying
out of the law have utterly
failed to perforin their duty. The
spirit and intent of the law has been
utterly disregarded.
It is against the law to sell liquor
to any intoxicated person, or to any
person who is in the habit of using
intoxicating liquors to excess, or to
any minor. This appears in section
606 of the dispensary law^as printed
in the code and reads as follows:
"Before selling or delivering any
intoxicating liquors to any person
a request must be presonted to the
county dispenser, printed or written
in ink, dated of the true date, stating
that lie or she is of age, and the
residence of the signer, for whom or
whose use it is required, the quantity
or kind required and his or her
true name; and the request shall be
signed by the applicant in his own
true name and signature, attestod
by the count3' dispenser or his clerk
who receives and files the requests.
But tho requests shall be refused if
the county dispensor filling it personally
knows tho person applying
is a minor, that he is intoxicated, or
that he is in the habit of using intoxicating
liquors to an excess; or if
the applicant is not so personally
known to the county dispenser, before
filling said order or delivering
said liquor he shall require the statement
of a reliable and trustworthy
person of good character and habits,
known personally to him, that tho
applicant is not a minor and is not
in the habit of using intoxicating
liquors to an excess."
Any dispenser who violates the
above section of the law can be removed
from oflico, his bond made liable
to the countv in the sum of
two hundred dollars for each viola4
: 1 *....41 U-Ul- 1 ?
i/iuii, uiiu in it no i" nauii' to any uainagcs
that may be recovered by wife,
child, parent, guardian, employee
or other person who has been damj
aged by reason of his selling the liquorAuontrary
to law. And it is a
mi^remoanor for any person to obtain
a delivery of liquors from the
dispenser by means of fraud or deceit
in concealing the fact that the
applicant is a minor or person of in
temporate habits.
Those provisions and others have
never been carried out at a majority
of the dispensaries and for this reason
there is more truth than fiction
in the statement that the dispensary
law has failed to reduce drunkenness
and the consumption of intoxicating
liquors Whiskey is dangerous
in the hands of the drunkard
"1 \ i - ? ...
uuu nc \yno annus it to an excess,
and it should be kept out of bis
hands by every means in the power
of the law. The blame instead ol
resting upon the dispensary law itself
should rest upon the shoulders
of those who have been charged with
its enforcement.

President Harvle Jordan Issues a ]
Call Askln* Them to Hold Gath- j
erinrs on July 4th. {
President Ilarvie Jordan of the l
Southern Cotton association has de- (
cided that the fanners iu all of the |
cotton growiug counties should ]
meet in their respective cominuni- 1
ties on July 4th, have barbecues,
speakiug and make the duy oue of (
general rejoicing this year on ac |
count of the splendid work accoin- i
plished by the farmers in reducing
the cotton acreage in 11?05.
President Jordan's call follows.
Oflice Southern Cotton Association,
Atlanta, Ga., June 9, 1905.
To Southern Cotton Growers:
Every report issued on the cotton
acreage of 1905, including the Uuitod
States government report of
June lid, indicates beyond all question
of doubt has been materially reduced
by the farmers, thereby making
another abnormally largo crop
with extremely low prices an impossibility.
Southern cotton growers
are to be highly commended for
thus standing so loyally by their
pledges and promises, which will
save the south from financial ruin
and disaster. The farmers also held
their cot ton from the markets during
the most depressing period m
January and February, thereby emphasizing
their ability to protect
their interests from the devastating
influences of speculation. The cotton
holding movement has saved the
south $50,000,000 in the value of the
cotton unsold on January 2<>th, and
the reduction in cotton acreage will
insure 10 cents per pound for the
staple next fall. VVe should therefore
have a day of general rejoicing
I f,??. tlx. ......I. 1S..1 1

FOURTH OF JULY SELKCTKI).
The Declaration of American Independence
from the yoke of foreign
domination mis signed on July 4,
1770. 1 think that a fitting day for
southern cotton growers lo assemdlc
together and declare their freebom
and independence from foreign
combinations which in the past have
dictated the price of the great money
staple crop of the south. I therefore
issue this call, earnestly asking
that the cotton growers all over the
south meet on Tuesday, July 4, 1905,
either in their local beats, townships,
militia districts or at their county
seats, and have barbecues or basket
dinners, speeches and make of the
day one of general rejoicing. I
trust also that strong resolutions
will be passed at those meetings
emphasizing loyalty and patriotism
to each other and agreeing that no
cotton shall bo sold during the balance
of the present year for less
than 10 ceuts per pound. 1 call upon
the business and professional men
in the various towns of the south to
assist and take active part in these
meetings. It is the duty of every
southerner to assist the farmers in
thio r.nn.!??i? ..-.1 1
vino |juvi iwiv VI II I y (II1U iO CUIIIIUIMIU
them for the great victory they
have won. 1 ask that copies of all
resolutions passed at these meetings
bo mailed to the headquarters of the
Southern Cotton association for
compilation and publication. Such
, a meeting of the cotton growers
and their determination to demand
better prices for cotton would have
5 a tremeudous effect on the spinners
of the world who have sold their
goods ahead and have yet to se,
cure the raw cotton to (ill their
' contracts Cot every community
act and act with determination.
Yours truly,
i Ilarvie Jordan.

Remember (lie Orphans.
The following has been received
I by the Herald:
Very appropriate to the season.
There never were a better peoplo
than the people of South Carolina.
^ They have had bitter enemies and
thoy have been occasionally much
maligned, but when it comes to the
highest grace of all the grace of
loving kindness, they cannot be
beaten this side of Heaven. Pardon
mv partiality, for I really think so.
Now all this sweet talk has a pur,
pose?it is a purlude to a suggesm
>r to the people of this generous
State to set their generous hearts
to a task before the summer vaca,
tion begins. And it is about to be,
gin just now.
Have you thought of your little
orphan brothers and sisters? There
, are two hundred of them in the
. Presbyterian Orphanago at Clinton
. (Thornwell.) There are two hun,
dred more in the Baptist Orphanage

there are nearly that many at the

for I have a standing welcome at all
of them, and who ought to know
them better than I? 1 know that
at this season of the >?ar they are
always sorely pressed for the neces
sities of life, and this little love
letter to my brethern of the different
denominations is to suggest
that each ono of you sent at once
your check or a barrel of flour, or
rice, or molasses, or even a sack of
grits, to the orphanago you love
best. June and July are the best
times to send just now. Everybody
with a heart ought to feel it a
privilege to do it. At any of these ,
homes a nickle will give a child a i
good meal and fivo dollars will <
ooard a child for a month. There >
are six hundred of these children in '
your church orphanages. And that '
does not count the Episcopal and
Catholic homes in Charleston or the
Charleston Orphan House, support- <
od by the city, or the colored industrial
orphanages in Charleston !
and Columbia, run by those two
good colored men, Jenkins and Carroll,
who deservo tho help and sym gathy
of the white people of this

these views, to meet us in a mass
neoting at the court house in Conway
on the first Monday iu July at
