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.

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.

THE HORRY HERALD, OOI
TISDAEE CASE ~
TO TRY AGAIN
Concerns the Giving of Bad
Checks to W. .A.
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.
