A citizen enquired yesterday if we were going to "ho) on" somebody in The Advertiser because of what he seened to think was an unnecessary loss by tire Sunday afternoon. We answered that we did not intend to do so and that we wouldn't know who to "hop on" if we wanted to. Froni what 'we have heard, not being pres ent, the nozzleien were unable to get water in stitficient force to do effective iwork. WNhether this was due to low water In the stano-lpipe, small watevr mains, ineffective handling of the fire apparatus or other causes we do not kiow and different opinions are ex pressed. If the low pressurt was lue to carelessnfess of employees of the city. the truth, of course, should be found out and proper steps taken to prevent a re-oc currence in the future. If it was due to the small water main, this one and others like it in as thickly popi lated parts of the city should be tak en up and larger ones put down. It occurs to us that a committee of the Council might investigate the fire and lix the responsibility for any unneces oary loss, Italy will conie around. She can not stand out against the public opin ion of the world. Germany, a much more powerful nation than Italy, tried that and failed. We imagine that the popilar deionstrations in Rome are just. about like demonstrations that <an be stirred up by smooth-tongued politicians anywhere. South Carolina for instance, and that as soon as cool er and inore. coflnseivative heads are allowed to prevail the Italians will sce' the er'ror. of their 'ways and the delegation will return to Paris. a * * WIlY lRl'Y lONI)Si Three lot ives at least shoild proipt Its lo suIbscrib to hw Series of Iiberty IHonds now being offired.

To the Farmers of Laurens County: The business men of Laurens have subscribed $3,000.00 for the erection and maltitenance of a sweet potato storage warehouse. It is now up to the farmers within hauling distance of Laurens-say 6 to 8 miles-to make this very important enterprise a suc cess by growing enough potatoes this year to ill1 the warehouse. Sweet potatoes for storage must be of the Nancy Hall or Porto Rico varie ties and grown from disease-free plants on land that has not grown sweet potatoes for at least three years. Potatoes must also be graded in the field, us only marketable potatoes will be accepted for storage. There are a number of dealers from which disease free plants may be obtained, but if any farmer has bedded potatoes of tihe above varieties the first slips or drasws should be set out promptly and pota toes intended for storage grown from vine cuttings from these parly plants. As soon as blanks are obtained from Clemason College, I intend to canvass the farms adjacent to Laurens in or der to get a line on the aereage that will be planted. The size of the ware house will depend largely upon the acreage farmers agree to plant in sweet potatoes. Where proper precau tions are used losses in sweet potato storage houses are less than 2 percent. Respectfully, M. D. -MOORE, County Demonstration Agent. Laurens, S.

Zurich, Switzerland, April 28.-An et!. enmmtist uprising in Fueles, Ilungary near Sopron (Odenburg), west of Budapest, began April 10, and ended a few-days later with the exe cution uf a priest. on false eJiarges and the imposition of prison sentences on 15 others accused of participation in the revolt. This nows has just been received here from Vienna, hav Ing been held up by the rigid censor ship at Budapest. The revolt began among the peas ants& who defeated a red army force sent from Sopron. Reinforcements finally enabled the troops to suppress the revolt.. The communist govern ient immediately sent revolutionary judgs to Fueles to punish the rebels. 'ihe tribunal caused the arrest of all the young men of Fueles and from them selected 12 of the 'wealthiest. They were told they would be shot unless they betrayed the name of the relel leader of the uprising. After conferring among themselves the young men, it is reporte'l unanimous ly denounced the Rev. Anthony Szed eniker, a Catholic priest, as the "In tellectual originator." The trial of the priest lasted less than an hour and there .were no witnesses except the young men. Ile was condemned to dath and shot a half hour later. Subsequently the young men, it Is added said that they h.d denounced the priest only because the! were con vinced that his calling would protect him from violen-e.
