It .has been said that the altitude of Anderspn,..1B "mostly, Baptja'" but thia would bo good territory for the great Methodist University.

Now wo ar?; after iii? nourishing kernels ol iradi- \V? have heretofore seri ously and frequently culled attention to the fin I thai Anderson and Clem son College are too far apart. Not geographically hut commercially and socially. re was a time when Anderson gol ell of the trade from Clemson. Now'a lot of it Ko?s to Greenville. We collei ile that Seneca and Pendleton ahoufn* get thelr!"ilnHre. hut Anderson should K< I what goes to Greenville. Hut we will never ?tel it unless wo KO after it. It may not lie within the limits of possibility to go after it tills year, hut Anderson should have a railroad to Clemson College, even If a branch lim- should have lo Ix built from the brick yaru above Pendleton to a point on the main line near Cal houn. This would avoiti ali heavy grades between Pendleton und Sen eca, and would be a feasible line at low cost of construction. Mut we think that the thing to bc tlone this sumiller is to start a local parcels delivery and express system. For a Gr At Hie risk of being accused of too" much earnestness In thc matter, we wiall to talk some more upon our hob by-marketing. A public market in Anderson would stimulate trade. It would encourage truck gardening in half a dozen counties around here. Hy guaranteeing arigid Inspection of foodstuffs lt would protect health. We may be dreaming, but we flat ter ourselves to suy that lt ls vision and we accordingly make the prophe cy,-that If Anderson should,.- build and maintain and manage properly - municipal market, this city would in 10 years have 50.000 inhabitants. Once with such a market and her alding to the world, "the low cost of living . tov;n" then small industries would come flocking here. Let (U8 extend the Idea for a mo ment.jN T.here is no hope of ever ac oomplishing anything without coope ration.

Hu?, let these 25 men get together and agree on a date and bring 12,500 fowls to Andcr car for Atlanta or:Savannah-anti the son arid put them Into a "chid storage farmer would get what the fowls are worth. To carry the market idea a little further-why would lt not be feasible to band together the citizens on cer tain rural routes und let them agree to produce a certain detlnitc commod ity as a side crop? For Instance, let them agree upon irish potatoes. Gold nuggets are hardly more rare In New York and shiploads have heen brought in from Scotland. If the farmers upon a rural route should produce a carload of Irish potatoes and should market GET TOUR NAME ENROLLED We wish to call especial attention to tho following notice from the chairman Of the county democratic executive committee, Mr. S. Dean Pearman : "On July 28th. 1914. the club rolls will close. After that date no name shall be enrolled. All democrats are urged to enroll at their n^rest club without delay. If any qualified votor fails to enroll he cun blame only him self. Write your full name or the club roll and do it now. AU clubs ex cept Cox Mill, Grove school and Slab town have sent In the names of their enrollment committee. These clubs arc urged to send them In without do- , lay. "The secretaries of all the clubs will rend In the club rolls between ( the 28th of July and August 1st, and thc executive committeemen from each club is requested to ace that . this rule ls complied with. "Tho time for filing pledges and ( paying nssesment ii candidates ex- i pirea on August 7th, at 12, o'clock I sharp. The pledge is to be filed with j the secretary and the assessment paid to him." The correspondent of The Intelli gencer at Humes has a very timely appeal in this Issue and every person , throughout the county should spread this Information as quickly aa possi ble so that every man will have a chance to enroll his name. POLITICAL NOTES Another candidate for the house appears In this issue of The Intelli gencer, Mr. W. F. White, of Eaaley. to Clemson Would it nut b? possible io arrange willi Mr. Clinkscalcs, who is tho gen eral inunuger ol i ru ii.-porta I ion from 'In- railroad to Ibu college, lo have sonn; way lo deliver pan els ut u cer tain small foe per parcel? If ibis could be done the rest would be easy. The packager could lie put in ship ping casca, such as bread or laundry ure handled in . The ladies of Clem Koii could run down to .Anderson, do their shopping and have tho purcelu sent up lu a sealed case on the gus electrle and then Mr. Clinkscalcs could fee that they were delivered at the homes iu Clemson. To do this lie might lind it necessary to put in a neat combination passenger and ex press automobile 'hus. Some Ander son dealer with a lot of public spirit might be able to bring about tho ?tarting of such a 'hus line, and we respectfully suggest this to some of them. If such a parcels delivery should prove successful, ll would later on force the building of a ?--pur to the college grounds, so I hat there would be no inconvenience in Clemson la dies, and the men also, coming to An derson to do their trading. eat City them simultaneously, they could get a car i.laced to handle the crop. Hut what would be the sense of shipping a few bushels of potatoes? That is wherein the farmer gets discouraged. Ile sells little dabs of produce and gets less than he expected. Dy combining their funds, men have built railways, buve conducted bank ing institutions, have erected schools and colleges. Why should not farm ers combine their interests, form community clubs under the direction of a man in whom they have confi dence and market their produce in carload lots for shipment to northern marketsD The local market could be a sort of clearing house or ex change for handling the shipments. The city of Atlanta is contemplat ing this very move. The city of Bal timore, despite great conflagrations, gets greater every year-because lt ls a place In which living is cheap on count of its market house. The town resident cannot produce garden truck sufficient for his own needs. Negro labor is getting more and more trif ling every year. We have been told thut when tb? city of Anderson was begging for vegetables, the people In the county were throwing such pro duce away. Yesterday a prominent business man was stating his griev ances, that he could get no vegeta bles at all, for everything is sold in the suburbs before reaching the city. The beautiful old Southern spirit of sharing wi'.h your neighbors and thinking lt breach of hospitality or gentility to sell any growing thing except cotton-is too archaic, for these dayB.. The Southern farmer has begun to learn that he has a right to sell the things that he produces-now let him expect to get full returns for his labor and his enterprise. The way to accomplish this is by clubbing to gether. And let Anderson have a market house. to handle the produce. He ls said to ho In every way capa ble and suited for the responsibilities of the office, and is a man who has strong backing In hip section. Tho card of J.

HORRIBLE CRIME IN OPON EE Fiend ls Now in the Walhalla * Jail. Seneca Farm and Factory. News of a horrible and barbarous occurrence in tho Salem section of the county wus received In Seneca this morning. It ls said that a young lady ls dead at that placo as a result of having been ravished and beaten by her brother-in-law. Particulars In connection with the affair-are. hard to obtain, the telephone connection between Seneca and Salom being bad. The assault kn said to have, been committed the first,.of tho week und the young lady waa.the daughter ol a. prominent family ot the upper section-, at the county.< The;narnu of the mau concerned could not be learned, but it ls said that, he is-now in jail at Wal halla, and a preliminary examination In connection with the death of the young lady ls to be held tomorrow.

A number of other officers had asked | for voluntary retirement Had all ap plications been 'accepted "the bo?rdi would not'bavtf Wirr tdf'do' any "pluck-" lng." But last year' ?he president de cided not to permit' the' volunteer' re tirement of any officer who has not Been twenty years' service after grad uating 'rom the nuvai academy. ' The law requires the creation of forty vacancies annually, with fifteen com pulsory retirements if necessary. Included in the' list'of "plucked" aid the names of some officers 'V/iicae prominence in naval circles has .rut ed great surprise among their 'col leagues at their retirement. . :"'. v Captain Gibbons has been supeilu tendent of the naval academy and naV al attache to the A m er ic! m emb?ssy In London, assignments given tb offi cers of the highest ability. Captain Hill became prominent through his outspoken criticism of defects in the emplacement of armor on thu older battleships, which-led to ' radical changes in the designa . Were Good Officers. '.. Some ot the officers had been re garded as in somewhat unsatisfactory health, though not in a condition io warrant medical condemnation. Secretary Daniels explained ? .there waa nothing on the records of any of these officers to;show that they were not fitted for any naval ?01-vic- In th? matter of habit, temperament and pro fessionai ability. He pointed out that the plucking iavro somdMmc ago"' bad resulted tn the elimination from th* navy ot officers'who w-n- -?alf ably disqualified, but now the naval lists were In such shape, th?t thu board was confronted with the task of deterrhlti lng not who wan^ynflt't.-)' hi* retained in the service but rather who could beat be spared out of the Hst of thor oughly compotent officers. The secretary added he ?io?V?d a Hil could be prepared before the u.eVipg Of the next congross for the readjust ment of the personnel ii fro navy which would eliminate objectionable features of the present law.

"It all d?perds' 'on1bindee negro lt la," said Mr. Pollock. 1 Mayor Jennings' denied1 that "Port lani Ned" had^'o^an convicted tVHce for the same cHtnei'oS claimed by the Governor.''tyCr. Jennings V ,ugatn attacked the ?Joverhort cb?hfectidh with the 1 nvcstt{ration1 into'" tho af fairs of the Slate- Hospital fdr the Insane. Gov. Bleaae branched out on t immigration question and hit at Sen ator Smith on thia question. He de clared that he waa opposed to open lng the gates of this country to the worthless cl asa of foreigners.. The Governor paid a tribute to Jud?e Ipa B. Jones, bia opponent .two' years ago and commended the work of Dr. J. Strait, a resident ot this county aa physician in charge ot the asylum. THREE ON ON El (Newberry Herald.) lt looks like there is a "system" or something, as Mr. Duncan would say against dov. Blease. Candidates Jen nings and Pollock are taking their time in lambasting dov. Blease and as a matter of apparent i fair play, they take a turn at Senator Smith. According to the Columbia Record, these gentlemen are going to bring In the asylum Investigation later oti'.'Wc suppose, when they think it will be most telling When they get through' with an effort to show up Senator Smith's record they Invariably wind up by .saying ibat the would vote for Smith .us between him and Blease. The '.'system'", is that they are trying, to help Senator Sni?h to defeat Gov. Blease. lt ia really three against one, The "system" realized that Sen ator Smith alone could no beat Gov. Blouse and the plan ls, as lt appears, to have these two gentlemen make the fight and let Senator Smith reap the reward. They are certainly very patriotic from their viewpoint. It don't work. The people sec through their game. MEDIATION IS CALLED ENDED BY BRAZILIAN ( Continued from page 1) This would clear up all points of in ternational difference and fix a date for the recognition of the new gov ernment. As future meetings of the mediation board and delegates probably will .be held In New Yerk or Washington to day's luncheon was In the nature of a farewell. The mediators late tonight deliver ed a note to the American and Huerta delegates, declaring that inasmuch as General Carranza had asked for more time to consider the question of send ing delegates to an informal confer ence for the solution of Mexico's in eternal problems, there was no further need of metings here. The note sets forth tr there will be no further need of se. .^as of me diation until the two factions have chosen a provisional president. When the Constitutionalists are ready to send delegates the note says the work of medi?tica will be resumed. DUnOIS OFFERS CLEAR ANSWER TO ROOSEVELT" (Continued from Page^ J,)^.,^;. ls a blackmailing agreement in his interpretation of the document., .ile declares that while negotiating for*| a treaty he made the Colombian au t ti rarities 1 Understand ' the' United fi'ates would' not apologize to any na tion for a political act; but In his in formal conversations he suggested that an expression of regret that any thing to mar the friendly relations be tween the countries might later be In eluded, in the trebly. . This expression of regret, the State"-"' ment says, would haye serve.d aa a balm for' the wounded, feelings of a once friendly nation, which had beeb; humiliated before the world, whose credit had been destroyed, whose bor rowing ability had. beau , annihilated and whose persistent appeals for ar nitration had been ignored. The opposition to this feature, on the ground that lt 1B an apology, is not just and ls not in the true Inter ests of the United States. If the Anglo Saxons are to live in harmony with the Latins on this continent, they must treat them with absolute jus ice, just ar well as we exact justice from them." Should Be Settled. Dealing with that part of the trea ty providing a payment to Colombia, which Colonel Roosevelt attacks rjaB blackmail, Mr? Dubois describes" Co lombia's claims for the unpaid- an nuities on the cession of the trans-Is thmlan railroad company, the rever sionary rights in the Panama railroad abd Panama portion in the Colombian national, all of which In ..his opinion should be mot by the United Sates "Under thc contract . bf 1867*.'. he rays, Colombia ceded the trans-Atlan tic railroad company tb the Panama railroad company for 99 years, for which she was to receive $250,000 an nualty during the life of the contract When Panama separated, there - re mained sixty-four- annuities Unpaid amonnting to $16.000.000. The eon cession also insured to Colombia re versionary rights in the Panama roil road at the expiration of the con tract In 1967. ?I "The physical value of the railroad ahortly after the revolt waa placed at $16,446.000.
