To the Editor of The Anderson Intelligencer: , The present critical condition of agriculture and finance in the State cannot , be promptly relieved merely by limitation or prohibi tion of the planting of cotton.. But theremedy can be supplied by a group of measures. Let no State wait on another. rnuch benefit will come from single State action, though still more if other States fall in line. There'should be no stay law, and no general postponement of taxes. These ar? not remedies. The occasion can be utilized to put our igriculture^on a sounder basis'than ever before-just as the boll weavil disaster in Mississippi finally brought that State to the pros perity of diversified farming. *' Elimination No Remedy. Entire elimination of cotton planting is too extreme, and even if generally adopted by the cotton States it alone could not bring prompt or adepuate relief. The effect on the price would riot be complete until the planting season next spring is passd. In the meantime there woutd be the possibility of a repeal of the prohibi tive, or even restrictive, )aw after the present crop had been marketed and in time for a new crop still to be planted. Speculators would see this, and b? slow to raise the price. Meantime the limit of hoJdiing by the farmers-in debt as they and their merchant and banker creditors are-will soon be reached. With the existing excess of "cotton over consumption speculators can wait quietly for the ruums to drop into their hands unless they ?re confronted with a hdlding^mov?ment backed by ample funds. Bonds As Currency. In default of direct aid, by the national government-which i?L .ie has the power to issue money-the only means of retiring the surplus cotton crop, so as to give adequate value to the remainder is for each State to take care of one-third or more Of its product. A bond issue of twenty-five million dollars should be submitted to the voters at the November election. These bonds, in ;\mall denomina tions-chiefly $50 and $100, could be used as money to buy from producers a half million bales of South Carolina raised cotton, to be held off the market for years if need be and made finally to hr?n? a profit over ali costs. '* The bonds would be accented in this State as money for all practical purposes and would find their way into banks here anti else where after performing an invaluable service of liquidation of d?bts in relief of the present financial deadlock. Control Surplus and Production. These bonds could be payable after one or two years and within five years at the option of the State, and must bear interest, since the State cannot issue actual money. Yet they would increase the State debt only nominally--the cotton purchased and insured would be an asset offsetting almost all of the debt and precluding the possibility of serious loss to Jie.State. Upon the sale of the cot ton to Europe in the course of time the proceeds would be us?d to letire the bonds, and in all probability would net a profit sufficient to pay off the present State debt, about six millions. Meantime mil lions of dollars would have been saved to the people of the,State in the increased price of the'cotton sold to the consumers and specula tors. . . -? x If the farmers are to be thus relieved by the State's assuming ihe burd?n of buying and holding, there must be compulsory reduction of the cotton crop for ehsuing years in order to insure final adjust ment of suply to demand upon a proper price basis. The State can safely finance the holding only in connection with complete control of the future acreage. Likewise control of future acreage cannot alone bring prompt or assured relief unless the present surplus is at once retired from the market. Th?se two measures are parts7 of a whole. .?. * ~ A third supplementary measure is the State warehouse system, which would-be necessary m order to afford cheap and safe facilities for the State's storage of tits purchased cotton and also for storing such portions of. the cotton crop as individuals could ho^ld. Off the market ito keep prices stable and establish the custom of gradual mar-1 keting. Cirair Elevators* But even these three great supplementary measures, would not suffice. If the farmer is to plant not more than on-half or one-third bf his cultivated land in cotton, he needs to put the bulk of his land in othe* "-ops, which must generally be corn, peas, wheat.and oats. For the . ig and marketing of these he is wholly unprepared. Grain has not been developed as a money crop with ?sLso as to bring the facilities for sacking, warehousing, anfj wholesale handling and the custom of recognition for advance of money on warehouse receipts.' The State should at once provide the necessary system of grain storage with elevators and all appurtenances'as public utilities lo promote holding and marketing and to reduce the cost o' missions and^ncrease the security of the wfarehquss certificates Seed for Fau Planting. Large numbers of farmers now lack the necessary wheat andi oats seed and the funds to buy them. The-time for planting will) have passed in two months. If January is reached with'no consid erable proportion of lands planted in small grain the outlook will bc so gloomy that there will be danger of an irresistible return to thc cotton idea, especially if the price should have been meantime raised. To get the new substitute crop planted .the State should at once furnish the seed to the farmers on credit to be repaid out of the harv est, in kind or out of the proceeds of sale, at the State grain storage plants. The distribution can be arranged, through Clemson College and the farm demonstrators. Now is the time to put into operation some of the promises of "rural credits" of which much was heard during the recent political campaign. _._ Amend Constitution. Purchase Of surplus cotton, restriction of future production, provision of public warehouses for cotton ancj. also fpr the newly undertaken grain money crop, and the provision of, grain seed for fail planting, will solve the problem and can be financca by the State. All these measures for the public good should be of unquestioned constitutionality, a State not being a government of delegated powers like the federal union, But lawyers will differ and courts are equally Uncertain in seeing the truth. We should remove at once the hob goblin, "ls it constitutional? " Let the general assemhi. v in ile ?xir:: ! session submit to tjie voters at the November election a constitu-! tional amendment unequivocally validating this legislation.* JOHN j. MCMAHAN.

BOSTON SECO* Deal's Doubl? and a S Scored Only Rui Philadelphia. Oct. 10.-In a pitchers battle with a dramatic climax, usually reserved for baseball, the Boston Na tionals defeated the Philadelphia Americans hero today in the second gamle of the world's ser'cs by a score of 1 to 0. As a result thc Braves left for Positon tonight with a two game lead over the Athletic* and tho added advantage of playing the next two con tests on their home grounds when the series ls resumed Monday. Although the Aemrican League champions were forced to bow for the second time in two days, to the super ior play of their National League riv als, they offered a far more determined opposition than was the case Friday. For eight Innings the two clubB bat tled behind the pitching of James and Plank without the semblance of an ad vantage. Then came the break. Scorch's* to thc Ninth* James had been pitching wonderful ball and Plank, while not quite as ef fective, had, with the aid of his re markable Infield, held Boston score less. The Athletics' veteran twirler was working as smoothly as at the be slnnlng of the game when Maranville faced him at the opening of the ninth Inning. The phantom-like short stop went out, Barry to Mclnnis, and Deal, substitute third baseman in place of "Red" Smith, stepped to the plate. The Athletic followers already were figur ing on what chance their players had to win out In the ninth. Dea! and James appeared to be easy outs The Boston third sacker, who had hit Into three double plays on Friday . and forced three team-mates In today's game, was not considered a batting factor. Deal Slakes Only Ran. It was Deal, however, who upset Plank's expectations and the Athletics' chances. He drove a long double over Strunk's head and a moment later stole third when Rehung threw low to Barry to catch Deal off the base. Bar ry terned to throw to third, but for somo reason held the ball and Deal was safe. James fanned, but Mann lifted a low, puzzling Texas Leaguer over Collins' head. Although the lat ter made a great try for the ball, he just touched lt with hts fingers and sprawled in the turf. Deal dashing across thc plate with the solitary hua cf the game. Replied With Great Rally. To this the Athletics replied with a great rally in their halt of the ninth and James, who had. carried the gamo on his shoulders alone up to this point, began to totter. The thousands of rooters fotahe home club were stamp ingvand cheering In unison and Barry waited patiently until James passed him to first. Schang fanned, but Walsh, batting for Plank, also wait walked by j the rattled pitcher. * With two on and one out the fans ?felt sure tue Mackmen were to break I through,and win, and the uproar was 'deafening. Eddie Murphy, lead-off man for the Athletics, stepped to the plate and catching one of Jamci' curves full on the end of his bat, drove a leap, lng grounder to the left of second base. Maranville sprang with the crai k of the bat and with a cat-like bound clutched the ball and with another leap tojehod the bag, forcing Walsh. With almost the same motion he snap ped the ball to Schmidt at first for a double on Murphy and a second later went down In a cloud of du.tt as Walsh crashed into him at top speed. When he scrambled to his feet jthe other players wero running for' the dub house and the game waa saved. Pitched Wonderful On me. This play came at a most opportune and dramatic moment, for James had begun to falter after pitching a game which for skill and control, never has been surpassed In a world's series match in this city, not even in twirl ing duelB in which Christy Mathewson, Bender and Plank have figured. The Boston box m an had perfect control change of pace and a spitter that broke like lightening. He fanned eight of the heavy hitting Athletics, includ ing Murphy. Oldring, Mclnnis, ?nd Strunk, and when the batters did con nect with his delivery the usual re sult was a weak holst or roller. This is best demonstrated by the fact that 24 ot the 27 put outs made by Bos ton were credited to the Infield or bat. I tories. Oily Two Reach Second. Jarf.e? eave three passes, two com ing in the ninth Inning. The Mackmen got but two players safely past first and bad but one left on bases. Of the two charged against James the one of Collins' would have been an easy out for Evers. but for the fact that lt bounded so high the batter beat the throw by a step. Plank, while he pitched a splendid game for hi? clnb was ' reed to di vide more, honors with 1.1B teammates than James. Fielding Helps Pitcher. The veteran's pitrMng was not quite the enigma to the Boston batters that James was to the White Elephants. Plank several times was saved by the sensational fielding of Baker, Barry, Collins and Melanie. He fanned six Braves, Pitcher James striking ont four times In sncceseion, gave four bases on balls aad hit one batter. Of the twenty-seven put outs made by the Mackmen the battery and Infield accounted for twenty-one. Plank had Ito watch the bases closer than James . for eleven Bostonians were stranded .to the Athletics' one. Erren Excusable? Considering the closeness and strain ?of the game both teams played re markable baseball. There were errors of commission and om mission, but all were excusable ander the conditions. Maranville and Deal got mixed on Mc lnnis' first foal In the eighth inning and the shortstop was hardly pr?oar ed fer the chance Thc Athletics' ir? teal to Third in Ninth n of the Game. ror was charged to Mclnnls, who full ed to hold a wide throw from Hurry al though he stretched until he fell over I trying to get iL Schang appeared to havo difficulty in holding Plank's de livery at times, but escaped without an error, Schang also figured in tho only play over which there was an aftermath. Following his double ir, the sixth in ning ho attempted to steal third, when Qowdy dropped one of Jamos' shoots. The Braves' catcher recovered tho* ball in time to nip Schang, but the Ath letics declared after the game he was safe. They claimed the game broke there for Boston, for, with Schang safe at third and but one out, the chances I for a scoring drive by the head of thc | batting list were excellent. Royal Booters Rejoice. Although the home fans were more entbuaiastic than on Friday there was little effort to find fault with tho um pire's' decisions. The weather was i il (nil. Boston's Royal Rooters were very much in evidence again. When the. game was won they paraded around tho field headed by Captain Johnny Evers, former Mayor Fitzger ald, and other celebrities.
