Harley, tho S ta to agent of the Astl-Saloon League to the minis ters of Anderson, j Dear Brother: I feel sure that you are anxious to know, If you have not already learned of the status, ot the dispensary pro position in Anderson Comly. I went to Anderron last Tuesday to as certain all' the facts in regard to this matter. With the aid of Rev. J. W. Spcakc and Rev. D. W. Dodge I counted the qamer on the registration books and after excluding all narked "dead", "gone", etc, I found the books to con tain 10,780 names of registered vot era.- Of thia, number there are doubt less a large number of duplicates end others who are dead or gone. It ts possible it the books were thoroughly purged they would not shaw a regis tration of more than 8,000. Of course this ia only surmise. It you aro liv ing in Anderson, please keep.an eye on this situation and see to ft that no one tampers with tlie registration books except th? Board of Registra tion. Unoor the law they, meet tho first Monday and. Tooday . in each month and they uro ne catt' correct the, book*. It is not our business to have the books Ncorreefed.

When it comer to tho petition the wets claim 1812 names on the petitions. Granting this tb be true, and also granting that* there are 3,000 . names on the registration books which should be stricken off, leaving the registration 7,780 these petition would would have to chow 1,945 bona fide registered voters tb order the elec tion. It. is plain to be-seen/thertoro^ that there IR no hope for art ejection in An derson County this year: but it mn*t be'remembered'that their petition of 1,81 S names will be- reduced : by at leapt one-fourth! .This' is conceded by those who have seen the petition. AB a metter o? fact, ail theso wet petit ions have* beea'foetid to contain the names of unregistered of every ebrt, boys under age. and . .sometimes '. at dead men, and quite, at number of du plicates. If tho Anderson petition fa an except Ion. it- ls the only exception I have ever. seen. Suppose then that when the petition ls checked by the books and purged of all unqualified voters' names, one-fourth shall be ctrl?kbn off. This would leave them only 1.359 names with w.hlch to order tho election. If then the registration books should be reduced to 5,437, they would fall.

But thia wets will mule an ?tuck on this sec tion because the word "continue" was not in U*e former Act, but was insert ed by the l'ode Commissioner and even the Attorney General haa so ad vised, but the Supreme Court of South carolina In the case of Nexacn vs. Wald has rendered a decision In regard to the Code and the former ActB which reties Gie matter. First, the Court holds the Code to bu the only statutory law of thc State; >>n The Court further bolds that the enactment of the Code by the Legis lature repeals all other Acts which were not inoluded in the Code. The Court gives as its reason: "If the Code contains the only general statu tory law ot the State of course there can bo none other. To ssy that a general law which haa been left out of the Code is nevertheless still in force ia to destroy the effect ot the declaration. We ard not at liberty to cay that the law-makers did not mean what they said In plain arid unmistakable language." The Court further says: "Having shown that we mast look tb the Code along with the general statutes of tho State at tho time of its adoption, it follows that we must const! ue lt Just as any other statute, and give effect to all tts provisions., The rule sustained by all the Courts requires that every word, crasse, and sentence must1 be given seals means, force,- and effect, if it can be done by any reasonable construction."

The Bureau of . Statistics, United States Deparment of Agriculture, bas made a revision of its preliminary estimates of cotton acreage last year (1913) based upon results of a spe cial Investigation and the report of the,. Bureau of the Census of the quantity; of cotton ginned in the past season. This revision indicates that' 'thc area planted In cotton (in o il tl vat lon nt the end of June, 1913) was about 37,468,000 acres. Instead of 36,622,000 as reported last July. The revised es timate will oe used by the Bureau of Statistics aa a biais in making Its cotton acreage estmate? this year. The yield of cotton an acre In 1913 ts estimated at 182 pound?, as com pared ^'ith 190.9 pounds in 1912, 107.7 pounds. In 1911, 170.7 rounds In; 1910. and 164.3 pounds tn 1909. The ; afee picked in 1S13 waa about 37.- ? 089.000 acres. I ' The Government's revised estimate 1 making the acreage planted in cotton I as of July 1, 1913, 37.458.000 acres. ; or 1,830.1.00 acres more than eat I- j mated at ute time, did not come as a great surprise to the trade. Ac-1 cording to this estimate, the area! devoted to cotton cultivation last j yesi* was thc largest on record ex ceeding that of 1911, the previous record year, by 1,182.009 acres. It confirms the view held for some time; namely, that the Department of Ag riculture made a big"' underestimate of the crop in December by reason of the fact that Its,..figures were based on too low an estimate of the acreage planted, .. , Gwlng to the high price for tho staple last season, ?rd the conse quent profit to farmo.-j. generally, it ia conceded that a BUbsenttal la* crease in acreage ir. certain. Various private authorities have estimated that it will be from 1.5,per cent to 9%. per cent. An th? basis of a 3 per cent increase. Ute ' acreage this year should amount to 38,550.840 acres, s 3.5 per cent increase to 88, 737,980. and a 4 per cent increase to 38,925,120. The yield an acre last season was about normal, being 183 pounds, not withstanding the severe Summer drought On the -basia of *he;'4iu?si yield to ari acre next, season, an in crease of 3 per cent in acreage would s??2?st an. Increase of about 425,000 bale? net In the amount of cotton pro duced as compared with 1913-14. ?OT STOUTS FISD LOST LAP. Search After Police Git* ?Jp, and Save fblld Froai Starvation.
