Messrs. Wright, Glenn, McKelver and
Wilder being absent. The minutes of
the last meeting were road and ap?
proved and the ordinance pertaining
to the right of way for the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad on Mary street in
the southwestern part of the city was
read and discussed. Very few chang?
es were made In it from the former
ordinance, except as to the distances
from the track and Installation of
pipe. The ordinance was pasted and
the mayor and clerk were instructed
to sign and deliver It during the week.
Mr. D. D. Molae asked council to
grant permission for the South Caro?
lina Western Railroad to lay tracks
and have a right of way down Oreen
street. He stated that while no or?
dinance to this effect had been pass?
ed before, It was generally under?
stood that council would allow this
privilege. Mr. Molse then read an or
diance granting the railroad the per
mlaelon desired. The ordinance was
passed with the understanding that
certain chanhes allowing the road

right to cross Calhoun, Canal and
Hampton streets be Inserted.
Mr. J. H. Forbes, on behalf of (he
volunteer fire department, appeared
before council and requested permis?
sion for the racing squad to go to
Florence on Labor Day. He stated
that eight men. one horse and the
racing wagon would be the equlment
which would be taken. Later council
"In regular order took up the matter
and it was decided unanimously to
allow the firemen to go. Mr. Jen?

Mr. Cuttlno, for the fu ggf irtuo nt, 1
made a report that the racing BSJttgd

have urisen over the question a.s to
whether or not the flre department,
headquarters was a part of the city
property and entitled to the same
rates a? the city when it was under
the management of the Monaghan
Hose Company.
Mr. Booth reported the work on
the streets to be getting on well. IK
stated that u:dy routine work wai
going on, the street force being en
ployed In taking up pipe, cleaning it
out and replacing it.
Mr. MoT a Ut In reported for the

in the hands of the city clerk. He
said that the city had recently bor?
rowed $2.500, of which about *7'?0
was left. This he hoped would prove
as the widow's cruise of oil which
never failed, at the same time he
hinted that he did not think that it
would be as effective.
All old matters being over, the elec?
tion returns were brought in and the
count of the managers taken. Mr.
Hurst read the report of the man?
agers that 152 ballots had been cajsc
In the election. Mr. Jennings had re?
ceived 152 votes, Mr. J. P. Booth 133
and Mr. C. G, Rowland 113. Mr. Jen?
nings was accordingly declared mayor
and Mr. Booth councilman for four
years, and Mr. Rowland councilman
for two years. The oath of office was
then administered and subscribed to
before Mr. E. H. Rhame, one of the
retiring members of council, and af?
ter handshakes all round and be d

I It was decided to pay all outstand?

proval of the chairmen of the old
committees and to keep a strict ac?
count of all new bills whica were
made.
A letter from the National Hygiene
and Demography Society , was read
and received as information. The so?

Washington.
A letter from Mr. J. D. Gregg re?
questing a light in front of his store
at the corner of Mantling avenue and
Divine streets was read, but action
was postponed until further informa?
tion could he obtained.
Mr. Hurst then read a number of
letters from applicants desiring the

well adv<sed the city to consult with
the Municipal Research Society be?
fore choosing a man. Of those who
applied, one is of Sumter, and all the
others are traveling men. A letter
to the Chamber of Commerce
asking that an Associated Press bul?

and received as information. Mr.

Bggssg?New Wgrobonse Bill in
Conformity with Decision of Su

Fellow Citizens:
At the annual meeting of Jhe .State
Union, Iveld In Coluinl)ia on the 22rd
and 24th of July, the undersigned
were instructed to issue an address to
the people on cotton marketing and
to draft a .bill for introduetF .\ at the
next session of the general assembly,
which will i?e in conformity with the
recent decision of the supreme court
on the state warehouse act.
We herewith .submit a measure em?
bracing not only a State owned and
operated warehouse system, but also
intended to standardize cotton grad?
ing and baling, so that the stamp of
South Carolina will be accepted the
world over at its face value as a
guarantee of merit.
It is recognized as a vital business
princplle today, that consolidation,
not competition, is the foundation of
wealth, because it reduces the cost of
production and makes for efficiency
and economy in placing commodities
on the market.
Fellow farmers, it is only in our
business where the old-time brutal
law of "the survival of the fittest" re?
mains of force. We alone are com?
petitors, one with the other, in the
markets of the world. With the sov?
ereign power of the State government
behind them, let the cotton planters,
with due regard to the laws of supply
and demand, market their cotton only
when demand ensures a fair profit,
taking care of the surplus as do the
producers of iron, copper, coal and
other standard necessities of fife.
The marketing of cotton i3 of
world-wide import, because, since the
adoption of the gold standard, cotton
has become the very cornerstone of
International finance. It is through
cotton that the United States controls
the balance of the world's trade, and
the south, having a natural monopoly
of Its production, has it in her power,
through wisely directed effort, to
largely dominate the finances of the
United States, instead of occupying
J the subservient position she does to?
day.
Political economists arc agreed that
the price of commodities always ad?
vances or declines automatically as
the measure of value increases or de?
creases. If the quantitative money
theory then be correct it means that
1^ the supply of gold increases in pro?
portion to the increase in business
transactions, that prices hold steady
and prosperity reigns: per contra,
with u diminishing gold supply, and
an increasing volume of business,
prices decline and hard times come.
Applying these basic principles to
cotton, what do we lind?
1st. Cotton is an export crop, the
?urnlus sold abroad fixing the price of
tha which enters into domestic con?
sumption.
2nd. This being true, ; he price of
cotton iw fixed not In relation to the
supply of gold In the United States
but in the cotton manufacturing cen?
ters abroad.
There is no other great world crop
beating just the relations to the finan?
cial system that cotton does. Wheat
grain, wool and meal are world-wide
products, a failure in one region Is
compensated bj over-production in
another. World-wlds consumption
and restricted area oi' production 's
what makes cotton "King."
After the panic of 1893 and the set?
tlement of the tree silver question,
the great financiers of New York w ? r ?
quick to take advantage of the mon?
opoly in cotton advantage to turn ex?
ports of gold into imports, thereby
"restoring confidence" and prosperity.
New York has steadily each fall
drained Kurope of her gold reserves
by demanding pay for cotton in gold.
Watch the imports during September,
October and November, it is these
which within sixteen years have trans?
ferred the (enter of the Aanclal
world from the banks of the Hague to
the banks of the Hudson and made

up and discussed by the m w council
and a plan was in a way mapped out
to guide their future actions.
equal to the task offered js of God'
Can we turn to our own advantage as
opportunity greater than any people
have had since Canaan a*.as offered 1
tree gift to the children of Israel.?
At present we "make brick without
straw'' and the hand of the "task
master" Is heavy, our crop is pro?
duced and the expenses are paid, n/>:
in money, but credit paper whose re?
demption in gold is unheard of; at
least nn per cent of all the business
transaction connected with making
the crop Is by check? draft or "prom?
ise to pay." When it come- time to
market the crop abroad where the
price is fixed, payment Is demanded in
gold, and the actual shipment of the
metal itself begins. This goJd does
not enter into circulation, but Is lock?
ed in the vaults of New York to
maintain a commercial supremacy in
which the south is not permitted to
shgffe,
We have a vision of the time in the
near future when, through this sys?
tem, .southern ports w'll become the
cotton distributing points of the world
and southern banks, the channel
through which shall flow this steady
stream of gold, which fructifies the
commerce of the nation.
At present we permit each year the
purchasing power of our customers
abroad to be depleted for an advan?
tage to New York, which is a positive
injury to us, because of the steady
fall in cotton prices resulting. A mere
statement of the proposition reveals
the economic blunder which holds the
south in bondage.
It is as unjust to European spinners
as it is cruel to southern planters. It
is generous only to the gamblers who
exploit both spinner and producer.
The remedy we propose is to bring
the producer and the spinner togeth?
er through a system of government
warehouses, which will, as sure as
fate, become the basis of a foreign
and domestic system of banking,
which will reduce interest rates and
regulate money to its only legitimate
function?a medium of exchange.
The recent decision of the supreme
court is of far-reaching effect, great?
er perhaps, than any of us now real?
ize, for it gives a broad intepretation
of the powers of the State in protect?
ing her citizens from combination-'
which would confiscate nroperty by
destroying the profits ' arising there?
from- The South Carolina decision
marks a new era and will be the au?
thority most quoted in the social and
industrial questions now pressing for
solution.
The objections to the bill were on
technical questions, and the broad
door to the police powers of the State
was opened wide by the court. It
would be historically fit, should the
trust question threatening the secur?
ity of the nation be settled by South
Carolina leading the way back to
"State's rights" and the reserve pow?
ers of the people vested in their State
legislature*.
No better illustration of the effec?
tiveness of the scheme which we pro?
pose could be found than in the crop
just marketed.
In October, under the impact of a
crop estimated at 14,500,000 bales,
cotton declined to eight cents. This
summer, when the crop is known to
be not much under 17.000,000 bales,
cotton has been soling at interior
towns around II? cents, difference of
about $25 per bale. Twenty-live dol?
lars a bale <>n soo.ooo bales so sacri?
ficed Of ttie crop in South Carolina
last year would amount to twenty
million dollars. We call your atten?
tion to the undeniable fact that this
enormous loss has fallen directly up?
on the planters. The banker, mer?
chant and fertilizer factory have been
paid in fall or are getting interest on
balances carried over. The railroads
received the same freight per bale
on carrying the largest crop ever pro
d need.
WI lore loss on Last Crop Pell,
We further call your attention to
another fact in connection with tins
loss: Among the planters it has fall?
en most heavily on the smaller ones,
those least ab'le to stand it. because
the planter with money or established
credit was aide to warehouse his cot?
ton and realize from 11c. to 13c. for
it.
Will Make Consumer Pay Expenses.
We debated in our minds for some
time the feature of a direct appropri?
ation from tin- state ami Anally con
eluded that it was best to let the cot?
ton crop take care of itself in the
manner suggested in the bill.
Heretofore, under our methods of
marketing in connection with each
..tiier. ail charges, including transpor?
tation, have been borne by the pro?
ducer. Under 'be scheine proposed,
the expenses of marketing will be in
the nature < f a tax on consumption,
shared by tin consumers of cotton
the w.uld over, and every economy
which can he Introduced will enure
111 the hen. tit- of both producer and
consumer.
We desire t.? call the spec ial atten?

To the laboring man: We say. the

from abroad the greater the demand
