SHAPING PLANS
Opinion is That Origina! Plans Do
Not Call for Building Sufficient
to Meet Needs.
(From Saturday's nully) -|
.Following a con toroa ce yesterday
morning between J. S. Fowler, repre
senting the farmers and business me?
pf Anderson county, and J. Cooper
Stratton, representing the Burrell En
gineering and Construction company
of Chicago, it appears that Anderson
county 1B certainly to hare a grain
elevator and that at no dl?tOui dut?.
lt has bebn decided to call a meeting
, pf the committee appointed for this
purpose and to push the proposition
Srough at tho earliest .possible mo
on t. Meantime, tho detailed infor
mation as to tho number of acres
-Slanted and to be planted in grain In
AndevBon county this year will be
gotten together and the maximum
number of bushels of grain to.be mar
. koted here- will be estimated. -
' { . 8. M, Brock, who ls deeply interest
ed in thc idea and who has traveled
through tho Wost to inBpect the grain
elevators,. is inclined to beliove. that
tho- capacity of tho plant proposed
for Anderson county will have to be
- Increased from 25,000 bushels to 40.
000 bushels us present indications aro
that tho crop of small grain raised tn
tho county will be between 1,000,000
and 1,500,000 bushels In oats and oth
er winter graliiB. Ho thinka that tho
elevator should also bo equipped with
, apparatus r for handling corn, for
. shelling and sacking about 350,000 to
500,000.
Discussing tho matter further, Mr.
Rieck says that the now plan will
furnish Anderson county, with two
. . money crops, .oats 'wheat In May,
! when the farmera will bring In tholr
grain, turn lt ovor to tho elevator and
receive ready cash for the samo and
another when tho corn comes In, a
few weeks before the cotton crop ls
gathered. .
A healthy Interest is being mani
fested all ovor the. county in the Idea
and that tho elevator will bo built
hore is now an assured fact, '

WAREHOUSING PLANS
TELLS WHAT HE HOPES TO
ACCOMPLISH
COMPLY WITH LAW
Says That Cotton Will Have to Bc
Distributed From Warehouses
in the Southern States.
"Lator I hope to soo concentration
warehouses In Charleston and Colum
bia to handle export cotton, bringing
thc foreign spinner and the producer
Into closer touch."
"It must he apparent that In the
future reserve cotton must ho hold tn
the South and distributed from there
to tito world."
"I intend to sec that the law ls com
piled with, especially as to grades,
because I realize that, when character
is establisher], colton can be bought
und sold by tho receipt, thus saving
grout expense to producer and con
sumer by eliminating middlemen who
now thrive ut the expense of both."
Foregoing arc sentences from a
letter which the State warehouse
commissioner, .Ino. L. McLnurln, ad
dressed yesterday to Theodore IJ.
Price, editor of Commerce and Fi
nance (weekly) of New York. The
letter follows:
"I am enclosing you a copy of the
warehouse act passed at the extra
session of the South Carolina legis
lature.
"The receipt given by the State car
ries:
"1. Absoluto tUlo to the bale or
bales of cotton eaumerated therein,
removing tho cloud resting upon the
title to every halo of cotton produced
under the crop mortgage system.
"2. It gu?ranteos weights and
gradcB, alBo condition of cotton.
"3. It guarantees tho delivery of
the Identical bales named in the re
ceipt, thus preventing substitution.
"ThlB should moko a good collat
eral to a farmer's aote to be used for
discount under Bcctlon 13 of the now
currency law.
"The act passed is not my original
conception of a State warehouse law,
but lt ls designed to meet tho emer
gency thrust upon us by war. Later
I hope to Bee concentration ware
houses in Charleston and Columbia
to handle export cotton, bringing tho
foreign spinner and the producer into
closer touch. - It must be apparent
that in tho future reserve cotton must
be held in thc South and distributed
from there to the world. This is but
a small ! beginning on a very large
proposition, but it is a beginning.
"Tho farmers are holding their cot
ton in the firm determination not to
accept -less than the cor. of produc
tion, which is about li* cents por
pound. The price is advancing as a
result of this agitation and paradoxi
cal as lt may seem, it ls going to be
easier to borrow monoy on cotton
than to sell lt in largo volume, be
cause as it is held the price of that
entering into consumption makes
higher the borrowiug basis, whereas
if all cotton in the farmers' hands ls
forced upon the market, it would al
most destroy Us value and leave no
borrowing basis. It ls the Hen mer
chant who 'is left with the bag to
hold.' If he can discount his note, se
cured by . warehouse receipts, through
the reserve system, credits will be un
locked abd the farmer hold his cotton
and maintain prlceB.
"Your admirable articles in Com
merce and Finance aro being widely
read and I am bringing thin matter to
your attention so that those with*
money to lend may properly appre
ciate a State warehouse receipt, Issued
as security for loans. I call particu
lar attention td the heavy criminal
penalties for violation of the act and
Intend to see that the law ie complied
with, especially aa to grades, because
I realize that when character ls estab
lished, cotton can be bought and sold
by the receipt, thus saving great ex
pense to producer and consumer, hy
eliminating middlemen, who now
; thrive at the expense of both."
With tho eyer Increasing "price"
(not scarcity of) land lt becomes moro
cl if ll cult for a laboring man to buy
and own bis home and corresponding
ly he and his are less free, and less
valuable to themselves and their
Sta? e. and they sink lower in civili
sation, and, are worth Just as much
j leis to "business" and the community,
in proporltion to their loss individual
ly. ? . '
I Ia lt better for a few to be rich, or

COLORADO CONCERN
TELLS WHAT'S WHAT
INTERESTING LETTER ON AL
FALFA GROWING
WHAT WILL HAPPEN
Foreign Nations Must Have Hay
and There Will Therefore Be
Greater Demands on U. S.
(From Saturday's Daily)
Everyone in Anderson county
knows tliat there in not much aifulfa
grown in this pun of thc State hut
that in not as it should he, according
to u number ol' tho representacive far
mers, ?aid it is believed that the norr
ing season will seo more alfalfrt
rnlsod In Anderson than over before.
Speaking yctsorday of this fact,
Forman Smith, the Anderson seeds
man, said that he was reminded of a
letter he had Just received from tho
president of tho Alliance Alfalfa asso
ciation of Colorado, and it contains
such sound bu.sin?sH advice that it ls
passed on to Intelligencer readers in
tho hope that it may have some effect:
"The European war is going to cut
such '>. big figure in the alfalfa situa
tion this season, 1 consider it incum
bent upon rae to give you, on old cus
tomer of ours, all the advance infor
mation possible of what is going to
happen.
"The war in Europe is the most
terrible conflict in all history and ac
cording to tile wiBe ones, lt h?- only
started. Owin.? to this wnr. Europe,
especially the nations at war, nre
drawing heavily upon Amerlcn for
grain and provisions and they will
continuo to uo so, causing further
Share advances. -
"These nations have also got to
have hay and worlds of lt to continue
this war ns most of their hay cropB
havo been destroyed or remain unhar
vested for lack of labor. They have
practically cleaned up all available
hay In Canada, Norway, Sweden, Den
mark and other northern European
countries nearby and Eurone ls- now
buying hny In this country in tre
mendous lots.
"They are giving alfalfa the first
call since alfalfa has been grow for
centuries in the old country and these
people know there ls no other hay
produced that is near its value as a
feed. In fact, we would say confiden
tially, we have a firm offer before us
from Europe for a very large quantity
of alfalfa, which offer If we accept,
as we most likely shall, wlir put us
out of the market for this balance of
the season On domestic orders. .
"This European order offered us is
only a mere handful of the alfalfa
they will buy aa this foreign govern
ment has requisitions In the hands of
Us buyers for 50.000 tons of alfalfn
this entire order to be placed in' Col
orado, and as lt wil labsorb mere than
half of our present supply, lt ia in
evitable our alfalfa market will take
an unheard of advance as soon aa' the
magnitude of this business ls under
stood.
"Our market ls today tho lowest in
90 days and lower than you will ever
see lt again tfcjs season and we urge
upon you, .aa an old customer who
hat helped to make our business what
lt ls-tho largest in the West-to take
On a few carn of alfalfa at prevailing
prices without delay whether you
buy from us or others.*'

[ TOUR OF
M*, h. BONHAM, J If.
(Continued from Last Week.)
From July 28 to 31 we stopped in
Lucerne, enjoying the wonderful fccen
ery, Hie quaint city, the fine concerts,
and a good rest. At one of the con
certs, I happened to sit nexfto Mas
cagni, the composer. I didn't know lt
untnl that night when an acquaint
ance told me of lt. Of course, wo vis
ited the Lion of Lucerne several
times. No picture or description can
do it justice; it must he seen. Near it
is the "Glacier Garden," where the ef
fects of tho glacial period in geology
are revealed by excavations.
The Swiss people Impress you by
their industry, courtesy, intelligence
and cleanliness. If a microbe acci
dentally get Into Switzerland he'd
commit suicide from loneliness.
The bathing proposition In the av
erage European hotel is a serious one.
A- typical experience was that of my
first night in Lucerne. Shortly after
dinner I rang ami requested to be
shown to the bathroom. The maid
asked "When?" "Immediately," I re
plied. She went away ard Boon came
back to say thai tho bathroom was
already engaged until ten o'clock and
after that thorn would be no more hot
water. "How soon can I got a warm
hath In thc morning?" "Oh. you can
get a cold hath at seven and a warm
ono at ten."
We left Lucerne at 7 a. m. July 31
for Ljntlon. We spent two hours be
tween trains walking about tho pretty
city of Kasel. After cutting across, thu
corner of Alsace, we spent the after
noon traversing a ' beautiful French
farming region. Every* railway bridge,
tunnel and station was guarded, and
at Troyes we passed a troop train. We
spent the night in Paris, and pro
ceeded to London next day, by way of
Boulogne and Folkestone. The
weather was clear.
For the next threo weeks London
was our headquarters. We visited the
principal placen of literary and his
toric interest in the city and went to
the theatre one afternoon. Between
the acts afternoon tea was served. We
made short excursions by train or bus
or motor to Wifidsor, Hampton Court,
Eton, Stratford, Warwick, Kenilworth,
Oxford, etc. On tho same campus of
Magdalen College, Oxford, we bad the
pleasure of seeing Misses Kate Hill
and Ella Graham of Baton Kouge.
One day in Oxford street, London,
I saw my name over an auctioneer's
shop, so went in and got acquainted
with tho proprietor. Another day I
asked a bootblack to tell me which di
rection 80 Ladbroke Grove was. He
looked puzzled till I showed kim. the
number on a'^caVd, then said, "Oh,
eyefy is this wye.''
I attended a cricket gamo-that is,
I Bat through thb first two houra of
the first inning. I found it tully as
exciting as a facitity meeting and the
spectators were 'as enthusiastic as
deaf mutes at a funeral. v
Another day Iy-spent in walking
along the fine country road from
Hampstead Heath*,' through Barnet,
toward SL Alban*; I lunched at "The
Green Dragon." 'a typical English
wayside inn. ,H $9% .'.
In the morning; 'bf August 21 we
Baw a partial eclipso of the. sun and in
the afternoon boarded the Allan Lino
Scotian for Montreal, We had a. very
stormy voyage, varied by a sight of
the aurora borealic and two icebergs.
Our port holes'-were covered with
blankets at night so that no light
could betray us to a possible Qerman
cruiser. ' rW 1 ?
Mrs. Bonham waa very sicy and for
four days kept her cabin. I seized
this opportunity to get acquainted'
with several young ladies. The day I
carried Mrs. B.on deck, one of them
said, "I am glad to see that your
daughter ls' well enough to como up
today." I went up on the upper deck
and looked at the ?sky.
We found that the British are as
good sailors as the Germans, but they
don't understand ab well the art of

best thing about foreign travel is the
added appreciation of your own coun
try which it inspires.
Now, just a few words about the
war, so far as my "observation of it
went. I was in Paris the night Jaur?s
was assassinated-July 31-and I
stopped at h hotel across the street
(rom the Gare dc l'Est, whence troops
and supplies were being entrained all
aight. Under the circumstances one
would have expected a volatile peo
ple like the Parisians to be wildly ex
cited, but, to my surprise, though the
station, the street and the square
were packed with citizens, they were
quiet. WhcngB company marched into
tile station, the crowds cheered heart
ily, enthusiastically, but not excit
edly; and when they sang the Marseil
laise (which they did frequently) they
sang it colemnly-a very difficult
thing to realize. The whole scene Im
pressed me with thc fact that the
French people did not want war, that
they realized the horrors and -respon
sibilities it entailed, but neither were
they afraid to fight, and if it were
forced on them they were prepare^ to
carry it through until the other party
cried "Hold! enough
In England I found thc same alti
tude-reluctant to go to war, ow.z
thc/Kaiser's pueriler diplomacy and
treacherous invasion of Belgium
forced them to do so, thc British peo
ple dropped politics and practiced
patriotism. They went quietly, moth- j
?dually and energetically about thoir
preparations with a grim dweterml- j
nation that boded little good for their
enemies. Home rule and suffragettes
dropped into the background, the par
ties in Parliament became a unit and
voted any money, men or supplies the
government asked for. The Ulster
Volunteers, enlisted to oppose homo
rule, offered their services for duty
in thc field; Slr John French, who
had resigned the command of the
army last spring rather than lead lt.
against tho Ulsterites, was offered, a
command nnd all the world knows
how faithfully and ably he has dis
charged his duty; the suffragettes
dropped bombs and hatpins and be
gan scraping Uni and knitting the
socks ' Kitchener called for. The
Prince of Wales started a fund to
raise 200,000 pounds .for the relief of
tlu>.ie women and children whose
bread-winners had enlisted; In leas
than three weeks the fund bad reach
ed one million pounds and was still
mounting.
So quietly and thoroughly ddi
Kitchener do his work that no one
outside the official circles even sus-,
peeled that he had au army ready to
move until the day after Sir John
French's army landed at Boulogne!
Even the soldiers themselves did not
know their destination when ordered
to embark. ,
The kindness of the British (both'
public and private) to distressed
Americans surpasses all praise. Ev
ery American I saw in London had
something to tell of English generos
ity and courtesy.
American sympathies are with the
allies, rightly BO, I think; but we
must not loBfi eight ot the fact that
the Germana are a splendid and noble
people and that, this war was not
made by the Germas people, but by
the German officials. Why, then, do
not the people refuse-to fight in such
an unjust war? For tho same reason
that Americans would have enlisted
last spring- had President Wilson
forced a war on Mexico, thought most
of us would have thought lt a foolish
and needless war. So, when the em
peror called for them, the Germans
patriotically responded and are put
ting up ? magnificent, fight in a bad
cause. As to tha outcome, I believe
that eventually the allies will win, but
only after a .very stubborn fight Then
I hape to see the splendid German
people given a chapee-under a re
publican form of government-to
realize their enlightened ideals of
culture and science, untrammeled hy
