Senator Strait, of Lancaster, in dis?
cussing the compulsory education bill
said he had known "some cruel devils
and some rough ladies teaching
school." One can see a! a glance that
the Senator Is a frallant ladies man.
"Rough ladies," In contrast with
?'cruel devils." Is delicious.

Oov. Bleasc's message In explana?
tion of his appointment of Dr. Houseal
to be superintendent of the State
Hospital for the Insane is remarkable
to the verge of silliness. Reduced to
the fewest and simplest terms the
Governor's explanation means that
he appointed Dr. Houseal as a person?
al compliment, because he knew Dr.
Houseal would not accept, and, also
because he knew the Senate would
not confirm him, therefore the nomi?
nation of Dr. Houseal did not mean
the ^Placement of Dr. Babcock.

h'Ton to i?a>?. Dlllj Over Governor* s
\ HO fails.
Columbia, Feb. It? The Influence
of Governor Bleats made Itaelf felt
in both branches of the General As?
sembly during the past week, when
the (int'Stion of passing a number of
bills over his veto urose. The Senate
da ilt rather ruthlessly with the om
. i ll disapproval of measures on the
part of the Chief BxeCUtlVS and pro
Seeded to re p? at the former expressed
desire for the passage of the bills
Which it had shown when they were
Uf on seiend and third readings. In
the upper body none of the vetoes
was sustained.
A differ*nt story, however, must be
told of the House. The Governor
eracKed his Whip a number of times
and his supporters in the lower branch
fell into ranks and championed his
views with such ardor that all of the
bills which the House considered on
the question of passage over the veto
of the Governor failed to receive the
necessary two-thirds vote which would
make them laws. For the first time
during the session, an opportunity was
given to size up accurately the exact
strength of the Hleasites and it is safe
to say that in the Houso more than
one-third of the members accord with
the Governor's ideas of proper legis?
lation.
Such purely local matters, which
are generally supposed to pass with?
out fall, as the issue of bond3 for a
court house and jail for Jasper coun?
ty, were vetoed by the Governor and
list veto was sustained by the House.
The most portentous measure to
be acted upon during the week was
the McCravey compulsory school at?
tendance law, which the House pass?
ed by an overwhelming vote. This
came as a rather distinct surprise in
legislative circles. The Senate has
spent several good days in consider?
ing the bill on its third reading, and
adjourned Saturday morning without
taking a vote on the matter.
The opposition developed in the
upper house far overshadowed tha*
shown in the lower branch. Several
s. nators have fought it bitterly and so
successfully conducted a tllibuster
that a vote was prevented. The views
expressed by opponents to the bill are

Once of the State in private affairs
and kindred arguments have been
forcibl) advanced by the opponents
of the bill.
Hut. if the Senate should pass the
bill will the Governor veto it? On the
political stump he has frankly and
frequently spoken against compul?
sory school attendance. However,
so ans weeks uso ;*t the Bar Associa?
tion banquet held in this city, G.?v
ernor Blease took occasion to say, in
the course of an after dinner speech,
that he favored such a law where the
people did not take advantage of the
school facilities at hand It is very
evident thai ? veto would kill the bill
The House has passed lbs Senate
Laney o?l inspection bill, which the
Senate jo-ted favorably upon las?

\( t, oil companies operating in this
st tt. will be taxed one-eighth of l per

Saturday morning and will reconvene

final adjournment will be taken next

KILLING AT HAGOOB.
.1 X.MI s IIMi l: SHOT TO DEATH BY
1)AN HOWARDS, .Jit.
Dnvlil Robinson Dangerously Wound*
od?Shooting Scrape Occurs at Ne?
uro Dam e at Hagood Friday Night.
?Shooting Alleged to Have Been
Dono In Seif? Defense,
lu s shooting scrape at negro dance
at Hagood Friday night James Halle
was shot and killed by Dan Edwards,
Jr., ami l?a\id Robertson was danger?
ously wounded. The shooting is al
leged to have taken place when Ed?
wards Intervened when Halle attempt'
ed to break up the dance by driving
off the musicians, Edwards was ar?
rested by the magistrate and brought
to jail Saturday afternoon by Deputy
STieriff John Epperson, where he is
still in confinement.
Very little definite information
could be learned of the shooting by
the officers who held the inquest Sat?
urday, but from what could be ob?
tained it seems that the shooting wa?
justifiable, as Edwards was only act?
ing in self-defense. From what has
been learned of the occurrence It
seems that at the dance Haile went
tip to the musicians and tried to stop
them from playing any further. Ed?
wards intervened, expostulating with
Haile for trying to break up the
dance. Haile cursed and struck Ed?
wards, ,/ho backed off >from him
drawing his pistol as he went. Haile
followed Edwards and attempted
to strike him again when Edward?
shot him. Edwards claims to have
had only one ball in his pistol and
fired only one time. Two bullets
struck the dead man, one in the neck
just below the chin, which penetrated
the neck, coming out at the back of
the head, while the other went
through the neck, entering just behind
one ear and coming out just b*?!ow
and behind the other ear. A bullet
penetrated Edwards' coat sleeve but
failed to injure. It was stated that at
least four shots were fired in the
melee, and probably more, but who
fired them could not be ascertained.
One bullet struck David Robertson in
the leg and inflicted a dangerous
wound. Haile was alleged to have
had a pistol and a pair of brass
knucks on him at the time of the
shooting, but none were found on him
afterwards. Edwards and Robertson
had pistols.
At the coroner's inquest It was
hard to get witnesses and harder PtiP
to get them to say anything about
the shooting. The Jury returned a
verdict of justifiable homicide. How?
ever, as there was so little informa?
tion forthcoming it was decided best
to hold Edwards until further infor?
mation could be worked up. A charge
Of carrying concealed weapons was
also lodged against him. Rural Po?
liceman Norrie and Magistrate Gill 8
Of Rembert were left in charge with
instructions to work up what evidence
they could.
The general feeling among the
white people of Hagood Is of indiffer?
ence nt the klllng of Haile, who was
Bald to have been a bully in that sec?
tion. It was Mated that a short time
ago he had held up a white man in
his store at that place and made
threats against him If he complained
i.i the magistrate.
What Tomato Clubs Did.
I >o yea think the Tomato Club
work ot interest and Importance only
to the girls who take part In it? If
so, listen to what Prof. L. N. Dun
ean tells about two Alabama coun?
ties:
"Last year (1911) when we started
the work in Pike County, I was pres?
ent ami saw the first can of tomatoes
up put that was canned in that coun?
ty. In July, 11 li, we found that up
to that date 50,000 cans of tomatoes
and Other vegetables had been can?
ned as a result of the work. These
( ans were worth ten cents each, a to?
tal of $5,000 worth of good, whole?
some vegetable food products for the
home and market, which would have
decayed and gone to waste if it had
not been for the Girls' Tomato club
w ork.
"The work in Walker county has
been In progress two seasons, and in
July. 1912, we found 400,000 cans
of fruit and vegetables had been put
up as a result ol the Tomato Club
work. In one of the hading bust
n< is towns, i asked the merchants
where thej bought their canned to?
matoes, fruits and vegetables, and
was told thai all these products were
purchased from Ihe girld In the To?
mato clubs and from their homes."
Here is a new Industry producing
$45,000 worth of goods In two coun?
ties as a direct resull of what some
people may have thought merely an

THE WAR IN THE BALKANS.
VAGUE RUMORS OF BULGARIAN
VICTORY AT BULAtR.
i>is]Kit<'ii says Porto lias Abandoned
Idea of Making an Offensive or
Flanking Movement?
London, Feb. 23.?The mission to
London of Hakki Pasha, the Turkish
ex-vizier, thus far has had no defi
nate result and the positions of Tur?
key and the Balkan allies in the pres?
ent war remain unchanged.
Vague rumors are in circulation

tory at Bulair, but Sofia Is silent re?
garding it and, according to an f
flcial statement issued at Constanti?
nople tonight, nothing important has
happened either at Bullar, Adrianople
or along the Tchatalja linea,
Bulgaria has refused to consent to
the formation of a neutral zono at
Adrianople. Therefore the consuls
and foreigners must remain inside ihe
city unless the porte reconsiders its
refusal to permit them to pass the
Turkish lines.
An uncensored dispatch from Con?
stantinople, received here, brings the
interesting news that the porte has
abandoned the idea of making an of?
fensive or flanking movement and will
confine the operations of its troops to
defending the Tchatalja and Bulair
lines, hoping that time will operate
in Turkey's favor either by bringing
about complications in Europe or the
exhaustion of the allies. At the same
time the dispatch says, Turkey by
maKing small concessions concerning
Adrianople will endeavor to persuade
the powers and the allies of the ad?
vantages of an early peace.
The porte claims that Adrianople
will , able to resist another three
weeks.

sequently, I must write in a more se?
rious vein. Also, it is harder to
write when you have to than just as
"the spirit moves." In assuming
charge of this page, having in mind
the hard work it would sometimes
mean, to write something of interest
and worth while. 1 d< cided to write
under the title of "Some Random
Thoughts," writing short paragraphs
none or b-ss related, so that the read?
er could see at a glance what he
wished to skip. Lately having un?
dertaken ;i page in the Progressive
Farmer, and the publishers of both
papers? not wishing the fame copy,
my task has been made harder, Put
I want to say to my old friend "Dry
Joe." keep on as long as your Angers
can push a pencil. May your tribe
increase, for such nighborhood jot?
tings is what makes a county paper
valuable. In my work on the Pro?
gressive Farmer 1 have called on the
local secretaries to write short let?
ters telling of what their union is
aoing. The management pays ?1.0U
for each btter that 1 pass upon fa?
vorably and I know from, experience
how much it helps me or: to have
these letters, to urge the county cor?
respondents of the Watchman and
Southron to make Editor Osteen's
heart glad by keeping him fully in?

The other day I was stopped on
the street by a former member of
the I'nion. and asked "What does
this mean that we must pay 25 cents
before we can sell a bale of cotton?"
I asked him, "Who pays the 25 cents
I per ton on fertilizer ?" He said "the
I farmer." "Are you sure?" "O yea
We pay everything and we will pay
tiie -5 cents on cotton." I replied, "1
do not doubt it if you stay unorgan?
ized. Put now we pay from two to
three dollars per bale in various ways
that we do not know anything of
and this will not improve unless we
organize, and handle our buSlneOS in
a business-like way. "His parting
thrust was: "You will never organize
farmers." ?it course, that settles it.

Vesterday I received from a Irlend
in the cotton mills "The Textile
American," a high-class trade Jour?
nal published in Boston, Mass.. with
two significant paragraphs marked.
' ?ne was an editorial "Should mills
buy cotton in advance," and said In
one place "A new era has begun In
cotton farming. The planter offers
his cotton at his own price. and
knowing the market value is able to
dictate to the prospective buyer, and
the careful New Engl?nder sees a
nice offering of high-grade cotton
slip away from bim on account of
cupidity and lack of enterprise." 1
at once thought how' like our South?
ern mill.-, who have many times i"
past years allowed the best pans of
our crop to be exported and laid
down in Europe at a less price than
they finally paid for their cotton.
