As originally submitted, the resolution opposed signing of the the repealer "in the interest ?*>f law and order." This phrase was stricken out after one speaker had assorted that he would not vote for a resolution which would brand every member of j gjie legislature who had voted for the 1 Mepealer as not being a supporter of law and order.

Many persons, including good Episcopalians, are busy making their own wine." After on" speaker had termed prohibition a dismal failure, Bishop Manning asked permission to speak one word. "I would not feel quite content if 1 should sit in silence without expressing my views" he said: "I stand where I did last year before this convention. I said then and I say now that I have never been a prohibitionist, but have always stood for upholding the law. It would be most sat! and serious if this great state of New York should stand before the people of the land as inclined to oppose the federal law. It would be sadder still if this convention representing the greatest diocese of the country, should take that position. I hope that the Governor, for the cred it of the State, will see fit to veto this law." The resolution then was amended and adopted. o REPORTS ON POTATOES Clemson College.?The Bureau of Agricultural Economics, U. S.

Following and since his arrot last week these comments and stories have come out. The defendant remains in the jail, being uiv.ible, at last accounts, to make bail and obtain his liberty. It is not long from the time when the Court of General Sessions will convene and his case can be called up and tried. If things alleged are true, then it appears that a most heinous crime has been committed against a young girl. If true then there is depravity of the worst type existing somewhere. Efforts of the better class of people should be directed more than ever toward the accomplishment of means which will keep down things like this. It annears that the father had two daughters and that Montgomery married one. She died not long since. A little baby that was left as a result of the union also died. The father discovered a note written to his GERMAN DRAWS DEATH PENALTY Paris?Herr Schlogetter was convicted of sabotage by a French courtmartial today and sentenced to death, according to a Havas dispatch from Pusseldorf. Several other Germans tried with Schlogtter recived sntences ranging from seven to twenty years at hard labor. The sentence of death against Schlogetter is the first of its kind imposed by French courts since the French troops entered the Ruhr. Schlogetter was charged with having been the leader of a band of Nationalists who committed acts of sabotage against railways and bridges in the Ruhr. will contain information regarding car lot shipments of potatoes, prices and market conditions in the Charleston producing section. They will also give carlot receipts, prices and carlot conditions of the potatoes and general marketing conditions in the large terminal markets handling South Carolina potatoes.

It appears, however, that the defendant has not before been brought up in the criminal courts under 1 charges of the violation of the law, and the community should suspend its judgment until the case is tried. It is hardly so bad as the public comment would paint it, in the opinion of some, and stories wnicn nave noi neon proven should not be repeated from mouth to mouth while the case against the defendant is pending. He should have a fair chance to clear himself of the awful charge that has been brought against him. o THE PETIT JURY The following are the men drawn last week for jury duty at the term of the Court of General Sessions, which convenes here on Monday, June 4 th: E.

In Critical Condition. At a late hour tonight the condition of Mrs. Barton was reported to be critical, and she was in the operating room of St. Mary's hospital for several hours, it was reported. Mrs. Ramer was rushed to the Anderson county hospital. Examinations have revealed the fact that she had only suffered a sprained ankle and sustained painful cuts about the face and body as a result of having been slashed by flying bits of glass from ihe windshield and side shields of the car. Both of the automobiles were said to have been practically de- j molished as a result of the terrific impact. The two machines were reported to have met in a head-on collision. Rlindcd by Clare.

To guide us through life's tempest, On the mountain's rugged hill. Oh! That peaceful face we loved Is withered now; i iic j/n >"|iiiuuvMi ui ucuvil Is on thy brow. Thou hast loft us alone dear Arthur, Alone to mourn our sad fate; But we hope that we will meet you, Waiting1 for us at the golden gate. Our hearts were full of grief, When we the message heard, Oh! indeed our hearts were crushed, And our eyes with tears were blurred. How our wenry hearts are yearning. For your presence here tonight, Yearning, yearning for you always, At our fireside wiivm jhhI bright. Thou hast left us heavy hearted, Broken hearted, sick and sore, Oh! What times we had together, In those happy days of yore. Hut all those times have vanished, Your hope has always cherished me, Has molded and decayed, My faith on you was staid. So, I'll bid you a last goodbye, My brother I love you yet, Remember you're always my guide, And that you I'll never forget. His loving sister, RUTH DEW. ill Page No. 5 DUST, WATKR AND INERTIA Some years ago, when wr streets were not then as dusty as now, we longed for some remedy for this uncomfortable, unhealthy and very expensive nuisance, and we were asunrpil Hint u'lion tl^A ?>? i'>"< - MVt4VVt vlIt% v miv/ii inv; ucitci r* ui rvo tem was installed that wo could then get relief by having plenty of water wherewith to lay the dust, and we suffered with patience and fortitude until that day should arrive. But when will that day arrive is still the constant question in the minds of a great number of our citizens. We have the water system, we have the hydrants, we have the hose, we have a sufficient force of city employees; but we still have the dust, and in greater quantity and of poorer quality, and of more damaging results, both to our health, our stocks, our buildings, and our dispositions. Is there a remedy or relief? We verily believe that there is or could he one applied. It seems that the method of sprinkling with the water wagon is very much inadequate, therefore, why not eliminate it. We have hydrants over a large iportion of the town?the portion that carries the traffic that causes the dust menace, so why not use the hose connection to the hydrants and thoroughly wet each Mock at least once each day, more often if necessary. If there isn't any small three-quarter-inch hose avail! able for this purpose, then use the old worn fire hose. There is always a large quantity of this old hose on hand that isn't sufficiently strong enough for fire pressure, and should he the very thing for use in sprinkling the streets. If it leaked a little in a few places that would be that much better, for the more water on the streels the less dust we have. It is true this hose will be a little heavier than the three-quarter-inch hose to transport from one corner to the other, hut we have several large strong; nev.ro men on the city street force, anil if necessary a reel can he rigged up to carrv this hose from place to place and it may he rolled over the sidewalks and thereby furnish pood hard surfaced transportation. If 'his sprinkling is done early in the mornings it can be done under the direction and supervision of the night police before he goes off duty, and it will then l>e done before there is any traflic on the streels to interfere with the proper sprinkling. If this sprinkling is done in the early spring months when the air is still _ 1 * * ... cooi ,ina wnen cold foot will very likely occur from vet feet of the force engaged in doing the sprinkling, then we suggest that the town assign to the sprinkling force the employees t^at have already been furnished hip hoots, which they use in ditching and when otherwise working in vrte" and wet damp places. I There may be a clause in the contract that the water works commission has with the Conway Lumber Corporation in regard to tlie pumping of the water and for the purnose to which this water is to be used. The contract may snv that all water used through the hydrants must be for fire purposes and for filling stree* sprinkling wagons only. If that is the ca<e, then an amendment to that contract would be in order and an .'irrangoment whereby the company now pumping the water would pe pa'd accordingly for the water used for street sprinkling. This is just one woy 'hat it np pears it could be done. There may be other ways ? See what Webster says about iner tin?that applies to our attitude toward the dint menace. The dust itself is constantly agitated. A CITIZEN. How to build up your Weight Increase your Red-Blood-Cells. That'i the sure way! S.
