The preparation for the State meet? ing of the Union at Anderson last week, and the accumulation of work since has kept me from writing any? thing for these columns until this af? ternoon. The most of the readers of tit* Watchman and Southron have aeen the press accounts of the meet? ing which were very good and as full aa we could expect. So far as I have been able to see the most important thing left out of the report* wan In falling to make note of the appoint meat of the committee on banking and currency and on cotton warehous Ing and marketing. This was the last work before adjournment after a two hour's discussion of the subject from many angles. It was finally decided to place the entire matter In the hands of the committee to bo composed of the president, the vice president an?', the three members of the executive committee with full power to act for the State Union. e e e Thla committee held meetings the next day on the trAIn and in Colum? bia and agreed upon an open letter to all the Farmers' Unions, banks and .nerchants of the South as a beginning of the work It Is charged to do by the State union, via: To secure concerted action In all of the cotton States on banking and currency, includlg treas? ury .deposits, and on warehousing and marketing cotton. When we have heard from the other State unions, and **rom other persons and agencies that can help in this great work the South ?'arohiui committee will be called to meet In Columbia. It is very probable that other moetlngs of an inter-state nature will be held before the full opening of the cotton season. Timo Is limited this afternoon and I will have to close with a line about the splendid meeting at Anderson, and the entertainment at Clemson College. Six places made bids for the next annual meeting of the State union, but It is doubtful If any of them can give as good entertainment as Anderson and Clemson College. E. W. D NEGRO GETS SHOT. W. T.

Washington, July 31.?Wilson anil tho administration acted promptly to? day to reassure the country against any threatening llnancial dangers growing out of the European War sit? uation. First the president took stops to complete Immediately the organiza? tion of the federal reserve board so the new currency law may become effective. Secretary MeAc'oo, expressing ap? proval of the closing of tho stock ex* changes throughout tho country, an? nounced that a $f>00,000,000 issue of emergency currency waiting at the treasury department would be made immediately available to national banks. To make more easily accessible this emergency currency, authorized by the Aldrlch-Vreeland act, the senate late |Ods\yt at Mr. McAdoo's sugges? tion, unanimously passed an amend? ment to the currency law modifying the clause providing that hanks of national currency associations to avail themselves of tho issue must have outstanding currency notes "secured by bonds of the United States to an amount not loss than 40 pe?* cent of its capital." To hasten perfection of the federal reserve hoard It was made known at the White House that President Wil? son would send to the senate tontor Blood is tho Lifo Purify the blood, cleanse it of all toxic and waste matter, and every nerve will be better, very much more pliant and stronger.
