Page No. 2 J. M. LONG MAKES REPLY Editor Herald: Please allow me space in your paper to reply to Mr. W. H. Causee and his non-co-operative drive. In the outset he stated that he never had seen any farmers' organization that proved a success. Very true, this statement is. Why? Because most of farmers are like the old stubborn mule?unless he's securely bound he'll kick out. This is the first * organization that has been binding on the part of the farmers and therefore is the first and only one that can be successful. I notice that Mr. Causee seems to have launched a drive against the lawyers in connection with his noncop-op drive. I wonder if he has forgotten that they are the class of men who helps to "Treasure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity." If they are not, then why not? I wish to state that the officers of the association are non-hereditary. We only have men who are able to handle the position, who have made a success in life for themselves and who are trustworthy. A man of this type cannot leave his life's work without as much at least, if not more Mian his former salary. Likely the Co-ops could have picked up men like you or 1 ior a irme, out what would have become of the association? Just what you predicted in last week's issue, is my answer. I agree with Mr. Causee in one instance, ie; "The great law of supply and demand rules the price." That's why we insist on putting our tobacto in the pools. It keeps the supply from overrunning the demand, and therefore insures a uniform price for our products. Our laws demand a sound commodity for a sound price and there is where our lawyers are helping us to enforce it. Mr. Causee states that he personally knows folks who have not received enough for their tobacco to pay fertilizer bills. I wonder if he possibly knows the grades of that tobacco. That has lots to do with the price, however. The following are answers to some of the questions in last issue: 1. Over 9,000 seems to be pretty fast growing in one year, and last week we received 500 new contracts. T am sure it would grow much faster if we had less of your type?the kicking class. 2. You will hare to verify your statement in this question before I care to answer. 3. Likely it would be information to you for The News to publish the salaries of your warehousemen, auuMuneers ana most notea pin-hookers. Ask them to publish these, then note the contrast. 4. We can pay big salaries at small cost because we handle the same amount of tobacco with less labor. 5. Out of all the suits filed the Coops have not lost the first one. The South Carolina farmers who have signed up know a good thing when they see it and are not kicking. f>. The Co-ops do not buy tobacco. They only sell. 7. I know several cases where the landlord's first payment exceeded the tenant's entire payment with the independent. 8. We don't worry about the last payment, because we have already received more per pound than we ever have before. 9. Concerning financial help our noted bankers and business men have already graciously ofTered all the help iViat iv Just a few questions to you, Mr. Causee: 1. When you need legal advice or help, I guess your independent speculators givo it to you?do they not? Those silver-tongued cut-throats and rogues. Taking1 the hard earnings from the ignorant, innocent, hardworking farmer is worse than the lowest of sins. ? * ; 2. Tf co-operation is not a good thing* why do our best citizens, business men, bankers, State and even our nation endorse it? We don't expect more of you. Mr. Causee. Those kind have been here *ince time began. Remember Jesus I Christ Himself stayed on earth about 33 years trying to get his n^onle to co-operate with Him, but because of those same kickers we are yet scattered.

Lewis, eldest son of the late W. R. Lewis, passed away at his family home on Fourth avenue Wednesday morning, June 13th, after an illness from which he had suffered for several weeks. Brixht's disease was the cause of his death. He was married three times. He is survived by his third wife and by four children. He was married the first time to Miss Privgtt, a daughter of the late W. H. Privett, of Privetts, S. C. By that marriage he has two sons, Messrs.

He has one child by his third marriage, which was to Miss Anna Strickland, now his widow. By this last marriage he has one child still of tender age. He is survived bv three brothers* W. Pv. Lewis, Jr.. of Fair Bluff, N. C., and Messrs. Everett Lewis, and E. H. Lewis, both of Conway; four sisters* Mrs. E. H. Hardwick, of Loris, S. C.; Mrs. W. B. Chestnut, Mrs. A. B.

The funeral will take place today at the Red Hill church in Gallivants Ferry township, at the cemetery where other members of his family are buried. WINKING AT ' EVIL CONDITIONS Many case of crime is winked at and never brought to a court of justice for the reason that the person injured hates to be involved in court proceeding's. It is regarded as a shame on the part of some people to take the stand in a court of justice and tell whht they know of the details of some revolting crime. Cases of violation involving the greatest moral delinquency and of the most heinous nature have been compromised because the prosecuting witnesses were ashamed to go on the stand and testify. You can find plenty of men and women to report cases of violations of the law, but very few are willing to swear out a warrant. This is op.e thing that tends to the increase of crime in this country.

Stilley H. G. Tisdale, charged >vith uttering a worthless check, was called on Fri1 day morning. I W. A. Stilley testified that defendant was operating a filling station and witness was selling gasoline. He sold Tisdale a thousand gallons and the defendant gave him a check to pay for it. The check was not paid, the Uunk saying that he had no money there. Then Tisdale took up this first check by giving witness three other checks, being a division of the original amount, into three installments. Here the defense objected to proving the three checks on the ground that being indicted for one check, the three given later could not be competent. This was overruled .at that time,' but later the motion was renewed by moving for a directed verdict. This was again overruled and the defendant testified. H. G. Tisdale said he had been running two filling stations. He stated that he always filled his tanks and sold them out before payjng for it. As he was running short of money he asked for credit, which was agreed to. His account was figured up and divided up into various checks. He claimed that he had only $25 in the bank and that Mr. Stilley knew it; that he paid the checks off as fast as he could get the money. On cross examination he denied uuu ne oougnt l,uuu gallons on July 15. 1922. Irvin Jones testified that he knew about changing the large check for the smaller ones. He was working for the Peoples Filling Station at that time. He thought the large check was torn up then that day. W. W. Russ testified he worked for Tisdale. A lot of this amount he thought was for oil which Mr. Stillev had let Tisdale have on thirty days. He saw the checks given, but did not know whether the checks had been paid. Again the defendant renewed his motion to direct a verdict for the defendant. stating among other things, that the prosecutor had parted with the original check and took other checks in its place. This again was refused on the ground that the offense when once committed could not be compromised by the giving of the other checks to take up the first. He was found guilty by the jury, but the court granted him a new trial. o and singular all of the following property, to wit: All and singular all of the stock of goods, wares and merchandise of L.
