E. D. SMITH SAYS | STR1FEJS ENDED THE JUNIOR SENATOR RECENT-1 l LY ELECTED TALKS OF RE^ CENT CAMPAIGN. ! principles-Triumphant He Says His First Election Was Experimental and He Construes Secpr ond as an Endorsement of His ReCord Made During First Term. "I believe the election of 1914 marks the end of factional strife and turmoil in South Carolina," said Senator E. D. Smith, after the State Democratic executive committee had certified officially his nomination to succeed himself as junior member of the United States senate from South Carolina. .4^* Senator Smith said: "The State Democratic executive committee has 1 ? vumuji MctiaiCd Hie I/O be the nominee of .the party for the United States senate. I take this, my first opportunity after this action of the committe, to extend to the people i of South Carolina my appreciation of this evidence of their confidence in me "My previous election was necessarily an experiment on their < part. The work that I had done in behalf of the people in the Southern Cotton Association had appealed to them and upon their belief in my sin/*fK?ority I had been elected as a national legislator in the senate of the United States. It, therefore, is particularly gratifying to know that after five and one-half years of service so large a majority of the people of my State , endorse my work and express that endorsement by reelecting me by a Whandsome majority. "The most striking feature of my election is that during the entire campaign I discussed my record and what I considered to be matters of prime importance to the peopde of the State ( and left them to judge as to the fit^ness of the one to represent them 1 ' upon the issues presented, and the nature of the campaign made. I am ( convinced that th e people of South Carolina when given an opportunity , will always decide in favor of the prin ciple rather than upon prejudice, pas- . sion and personalities. The fact that ^ one may produce evidence to disqualify ^mother for an office does not by virtfe of the evidence produced agai pst the other prove that the one pro? ucing the evidence is qualified. 1 Th^I people of South Carolina are so intelligent. that when principles are ^presented they have no hesitancy in ^ ;^RTeciding what they desire. "Therefore, as my campaign was i made entirely upbn the presentation of the work accomplished and the principles for which I stood?princiules of legislation, of progressive, constructive legislation?I am con- { y vinced that my election proves con- , clusively that those principles and that legislation met the approval of a 1 majority of the people and that notice was served that hereafter those who | seek office will be judged by the j things accomplished rather than upon J personalities, vituperation, strife and " factional differences. ! "1 believe that the election of 1914 j marks the end of factional strife and < turmoil in South Carolina. After all these years of factional diversions the result is a return to a sane and hopeful unity of purpose for the best in^^terests of the State. "Again, I thank the people for myself personally and for their indorsement of the principles for which I stood." Hurts South Carolina. , Reports received at Panama from ; points on the west coast of South j America indicate that conditions ? worst than anything known in many years now prevail as a result of tho European war.

Room For Cotton. Dr. Wade Stackhouse is in receipt of a letter from J. G. Anderson, of Rock Hill, who says that "theri is warehouse room in York county for * 28,000 to 30,000 bales of cotton."

Farmers May Use at Home. Washington, D. C., Sept. 9.?Should the demand of Europe for American tobacco stems cease, these stems, which contain large quantities of plant food, especially potash, may be used to good advantage by the Amercan grower of tobacco as fertilizer. Soil fertilized by these stems secured from the cigar and tobacco factories and stemmeries, will produce leaf tobacco of better burning quaities and texture. Tobacco stems as fertilizer should be applied in smaller quantities than manure, because they contain larger quantities of the constituents which i it.. ? i ? J ? - ? icwj uie piuni, according to the Department's tobacco specialists. Two tons per acre of "seed stems" (stems from cigar factories) or 2V& tons of "Kentucky sterns" (stems from the tobacco factories and stemmeries) are known to give good results in New England and so far as available, these stems will undoubtedly furnish a very satisfactory source of potash, as well as other plant foods, in other tobacco sections. Considerable quantities of tobacco stems have long been exported to Germany and other parts of Europe where they are often used in the manufacture of low-grades of smoking tobacco and as a source of nicotine. Tobacco stalks which are not removed from the farm under prevailing methods, are not always used to the best advantage as a fertilizer. Like the stems, they contain considerable quantities of valuable plant food (though not so much) and may be used freely as a fertilizer for tobacco and other crops. They may be profitably used to improve the hay lot by simply spreading the stalks over the land in the fall or they may be plowed under at the same season for cultivated crops such as cotton, corn, tobacco, etc. The practice of piling tobacco stalks in heaps and leaving them exposed to the weather means a waste of valuable material that might be returned to the soil. The practice of burning them is also waste ful unless they are infected by such a serious disease as the Granville wilt. DON'T BE MISLEAD. Conway Citizens Should Read and Heed This Advice.

ASHEVILLE BOARD ADVISES FARMERS. Advice of Asheville Board of Trade is to Plant Corn and Wheat Another Year. The Board of Trade of Asheville, N. C., has issured the following advice to the farmers of that section of North Carolina, and we believe it is ijood advice for all sections of the South. The letter of advice follows: To the Farmers of Buncombe County: All indications point to Grain as the Money Crop for the farmer during the coming yean In view of the conditions brought about by the great European war there will naturally arise an increasing Demand for Wheat and Corn. The Price has already advanced considerably and. shows every indication oi further increase. This condition presents a Splendid Opportunity for our farmers to Profit largely through Planting More Wheat this Fall and more Corn next Spring. Many of the European wheatfields 1 will be idle next year because the men . ire at the front fighting. The Asheville Board of Trade, there ' fore, urges every farmer in Buncombe ! County and Western North Carolina i to profit by present conditions by 1 Planting More Wheat and, other Grain 1 Agricultural experts are agreed rtiat' land plowed during the winter months give greater yield than with ' Spring plowing.
