?" THURSDAY, APR'L 13. 1905 *
For once it seems that the
wily Jap has been caught "a- jj
sleep at the switch" when s
Rojestvensky slipped through t
the straights of Malacca and
gave Togo the meiry ha-ha.
Our accomplished and versatile
president seems to ha ?e en- (
iv i i i.j vi : (
urexy suojugaxeu xne sovereign
State of Texas. Wonder what ^
will become of that hundred

thousand Democratic majority
at the next presidential elec- s
tion? ^

Doubtless the "yeggmen" are v
beginning to realize that the b
road of the transgressor is more \\
or less a rocky one. Three of p,
these gentry have been convicted
in the United States C(
court, now in session in Charles- m
v ton, for being concerned in the a.'
Latta postoflice robbery, and <r
the same defendants are yet to tl
be tried for 4 robbing the post- in
office at Kingstree.
===== ta
Merchants, farmers and rep- ^
reeentative men generally from p(
different sections of the county, sj
with whom we have discussed f0
the subject this week, express ^
the opinion that considerably ca
less fertilizer than usual is be- pj
ing used on cotton this season. ^
This is an encouraging indica- cf
tion that in Williamsburg coun- sj
ty, at least, the cotton acreage ^1
is really being reduced. ^
ci
Florence is to have another ^
daily newspaper, "The Evening g.
News." The corporators an- Sl]
nounce the capital stock as $3000, p.
the most of which has been
subscribed. This amount will,
purchase a pretty fair outfit for fa
a small daily, out the stock- j
holders should subscribe at least p<
? another $3,000 to pay running ^
expenses until the paper gets on a
a paying basis, if it should erer
do so. I
The fact that the fertilizer I
receipts in South Carolina up
to April 1, 1905, are greater
than they were the same time
last year, as has been going the
rounds of the State press, is
accounted for by the statement
that a great deal of these fertilizers
will not be applied to
cotton, and hence this evidtnce
is not conclusive that the cot*
ton acreage will be increased.
More truck and tobacco
than usual has been planted
this year and a large
proportion of fertilizers sold
in this State will be used on
this crop. It is devoutly to be ^
hoped that this explanation is
correct, as another large cotton
crop means disaster to the
I farmers. re<
===== th
Ware Houses for Storing to
Cotton.
0 re
In a recent issue of The Re/
cord appeared a communica/
tion fromJMr W D Bryan, of Taft,1 w<
, suggesting the building of wareI
houses in order that the fanners 1
enabled
rice offered them falls below
reasonable profit, and draw
loney on it to meet their presslg
necessities. This is a very
imely suggestion on the part
f our friend, who is himself
ne of the largest cotton growrs
of the county, and the plan
e offers to build these ware
louses by means ot joint stock
ompanies seems to be feasible.
A ware-house in Kin^stree,
>r any other town in the couny,
would undoubtedly be of
Teat benefit to the town in a
naterial way, and the nu*rhants
and other business men
fould find it to their interest to
ncouratje such an enterprise'
>v subscribing to the stock. If I
he stock holders nev? : recei ved |
cent in the way of dividends,
he money spent in building the
L'are-honses would be well in
ested, for every farmer Vlio
tored cotton and hypothecawl
is storage certtiicate would I
pend the most of tlie money
hus obtained in the town that
elped to build the ware house. '
In prompt response to Mr '
tryan's suggestion, Mr J Davis 1
arter, president of the county ,
<
otton Growers' Association,
ho is always wide-awake to ^
he interests of the organization
las appointed a committee, conistingof
six representative men "
rom various sections of the '
:>unty "to investigate the adisabilitv
and probable cost of ,
uilding cotton ware-houses in
'illiamsburg count}' and rer?rt
tr? the ronventinn later "
We hope that the gentlemen
jmprising this committee will
eet and consider the sub ject
5 soon as practicable, so as to
ive the public the benefit of
leir views, after making proper
vestigation.
By reducing acreage and esiblishing
these ware-houses
le farmers have it in their
)wer to become masters of the
tuation. Instead of being
irced to take any price offered
iem for their product they
in, to a certain extent, fix the n
rice themselves. On the other {
md, if they do not intend to ^
and together, and any conderable
proportion through C
ind selfishness refuses to relce
their crop, then the asso- .
ation would better disband,so 11
lat every man will be on the p
ime footing and no one will [
iffer through bad faith on the v
-i ; _1_ ,
iri 01 ms neignour.
If nothing- but five-cent cot- c
m will convince the Southern f\
rmer of the futility of his a
plant-the-earth" policy, then
srhaps the sooner it comes to ^
iat the better it will be for the
^untry generally. j
