t .Washington. ? Reported attempts
the Mexican government to purchase
the. support of American newspapers
for spreading Mexican propaganda
in connection with a recent
defense of Mexican nolicv towards
American oil operators issued by
Gen. Candido Aguilar, son-in-law of
President Carranza, have been called
to the attention of the state department.
The situation- is being1 watched
by officials here. The Monterey
(Mexico) organ of the Carranza administration,
first to call public attention
to it, said, in discussing the
advisability of a propaganda campign
in the United States:
"Our chancellory should know all
the details of this grave question,
should sound all opinions and direct
an active press campaign in the
United States; this last is of the utmost
importance. Not one thousand
or one hundred thousand but a million
pesos, il" it is necessary, should
he spent in purchasing Yankee newspapers
(there u;'e those that will not
refuse the business), so that they
will defend" us; and in subsidizing
writers, of some prestige who wilt
translate- the arguments which our
own chancellory will give them. It is
necessary to prepare in the very
besom of the United States, a great
part of public opinion in our favor,
taking advantage, in order to do
this, of the poiltical divisions between
Democrats and Republicans."
Regarding the policy. General
Aguilar, just before he sailed for
Europe, said "the only order issued
has* been that the Mexican law be enforced."
It was pointed out here General
Aguilar must have referred to
Article 27 of the Mexican constitution
and the decrees of President
Carranza to make effective that law.
In official circles it was said this law
decreed:
"In the nation is vested legal ownership
of petroleum and only Mexiicans
by birth or naturalization have |
the right to acquire ownership jn
lands or to obtain franchises to develop
mineral fuels in the republic
of Mexico."
o
Conditions in Europe are not as
bad as those faced by the South
after the War Between the States.
o
High cost of building material and
labor has brought about a condition
at Winthrop College which may ex- (
elude from attendance on the institution
some 100 pupils next year.
BOOTLEGGERS HIDE LIQUOR
IN LOCOMOTIVE'S TENDER
Omaha, Neb.?Bootleggers almost
eaused a" explosion of a Missouri
Pacific locomotive today when labels
off bottles of whiskey which they had
stuffed into the locomotive tender
flogged the hotter feed pipe.
The train was No. 103, which left
K&uaas City for Omaha. Near Oregon,
Ma,, the engineer saw his boiler
was ahaoofc en&pty, although the tender
tank was full. The fireman
dived into the tank, where he found
fifty-six bottles of whiskey. The labels
had become soaked off and had
clogged the pipe. The bottles are
supposed to have been hid in the tender
at Kansas City, and would have
been removed in Omaha. Had the
discovery of the low water been delayed
fifteen minutes the locomotive
boiler would have exploded, the engineer
said.

TOBACClTMARKETS I
SCENES OF LIFE
The throe tobacco markets, of this
county will be busy scenes of life
with the opening tobacco sales Tuesday.
All of the warehouses, there
being ten in the county, made extensive
preparations for chcndlmg the
large crop that is on hand in lie ivy
this year. The warehouses will try
to furnish plenty of help to handle
the business, and there is every indication
that the business done will be
laiger than it has ever been before
in the history of the industry in this
section.
All of the warehouses will be busy
scenes almost every day until the
season is all over several weeks
nence. uuyers arc coming trom ai!
of the bij*- companies and purchasing
agencies to buy the leaf this county
has produced. It is said that the
crop is short in the other counties of
this State, and also in many places
in North Carolina. This should result
in causing the buyers to want
the Horry County leaves more than
ever. No man knows what the prices
will be as yet. This can be known
only when the markets have actually
opened and the buyers exercise their
buying orders. Many think that the
price is bound to be good.
Owing to the experience that the
growers have now had with the crop
it would seem that a better grade
than ever should be produced by them
for sale this time.

BOLLWEHILMAN"
VISITS SOUTH CAROLINA
Clemson College.?Dr. W. D. Hunter,
Chief of the Section of Southern
Field Crop insect Investigations of
the Bureau of Entomology of the U.
S. Department of Agriculture, will
be at the Farmers' Week meetings
held at Clemson College during the
third week of July. He expects to
\'( ach Clemson on the 23rd and will
very likely stay for a day or two to
confer with farmers. He will address
the meeting on the evening of
July 23. This is a rare treat because
Dr. Hunter is the pioneer of pioneers
in boll weevil work. Although a
scientist of high standing, he is an
en tensely practical man. Dr. Hunter
took charge of the boll weevil situation
soon after this pest crossed the
Rio Grande in 1892 and he has stayed
with the work ever since and
through these many years has relent
lessly followed the weevil's trail.
The cultural system now in use grew
chiefly out of the work under his di
irecvron ami now it appears that
i traits of the weevil have been discovered
that they may yet make him
amenoble to poisons.
Dr. Hunter has always had a deep
interest in South Carolina and many
years ago gave out estimates of
what South Carolina might expect
together with recommendations to
mitigate the losses. Although the |
weevil heretofore gave him no oppor
tuntiy to visit South Carolna, he has i
for more than twelve years given J
direct assistance to this State in the
control of southern field crop insects.
The boll weevil is now with us
and every farmer, merchant, banker,
and other citizen interested in farming
is urged to hear what Dr. Hunter
has to say on the boll weevil situation
in our State. Do nflt forget the
date.
