COTTON BURNED AT CHARLES?
TON.
Flames Cause Loss of About $50,000
I Charleston. March 16.?Fire which
broke out this morning in Boyce's
wharf sheds and warehouses on
Cooper river entirely destroyed the
wooden shed forming the south side
of the storage plant, damaged the
brick main structure, and damaged a
large part of the 1,500 bales of sea
! island and upland cotton stored on the
property. The cotton was largely the
property of Hivers & Whaley and
Purgeaon & Co. It was covered by
insurance. The sheds, it is understood,
were not insured.
At 3.30 this afternoon. Chief Beh?
rens, when asked about the loss In
cotton said: "From my observation
so far, I judge it to he a 40 per cent,
salvage case." Estimating the value
of the warehoused cotton in the neigh
horhtoJ of $80.000, the total loss is
about $00,000.
When the tirm of Whaley & Rivers,
in whose custody is the Boyce warf
warehouse shed, and stored cotton in?
volved in this mornings fire, was en?
abled to take a superficial survey of
the situation at noon today, a state?
ment was made as to the amount of
cotton at risk, which indicated a total
value of stored property and struc?
ture between $90,09 and $100,000.
Warehouse No. i and the open shed
J to the south and east of it are total
j losses. They are not covered by in?
surance. The warehouse is an ancient
brick building, to the impending disin?
tegration of w hich the tire today mere?
ly added encouragement. Its walls
are now ready to fall in. The open
shed was an old structure of wood
and tin.
Of the 1,000 bales of cotton stored
within the warehouse and shed 265
were sea island cotton.
During the early forenoon, just af?
ter the (lames had been subdued by
the local lire department, Boyce's
wharf property had been roped off
from the encroachment of onlooklng
crowds, and under the direction of
Chief Behrens the work of stamping
out the meanest type of (Ire known
to a cotton port was in full blast.
Bales were being dragged from the
blackened frame of the shed and

V WARNING TO PROHIBITIONISTK.
Ill tl-Saloon League Send? nul lltfor
mutlon Concerning Light on Li(|iior.
_ I
Cpartanburg, S. C, March 10, 1915.
Bditor Daily Item:
We think it best to say a few tilings
to the friends ol prohibition just at
this time. If ever a State had a rea?
son to rejoice this Slate now has.
Truly we have had wash-day. Both
the bills presented by the Anti-Saloon
League and Introduced by our friends
In the house and senate at the last
i
session of the legislature passed by j
overwhelming majorities.
The Anti-Saloon bill, taking advan?
tage of he Webb law, went into effect
March 12th. and was a surprise to
blind tigers and clubs. The tiger can
no longer get liquor, and beer in case
goods, nor by freight. This forces all
liquor packages through the express
office, In one gallon lots, once a
month, and virtually destroys the jug
Hade In regard to beer. As liquor and
j beer can be stored only in private
homes, liquor in the social clubs is a
thing of the past.
The referendum bill means that
1 South Carolina will vote the 14th of
next September on the prohibition
question, making the State the unit
instead of the county. If the State
votes dry. it will be dry by October
1st, for there will be a rush for a last
supply and every dispensary will be
empty In two weeks. That will wind
up the liquor business in South Caro?
lina, and it is joyous to think about.
This should stir the heart of every
man and woman to action! This is
the goal?the end we have prayed and
I hoped for so long. But brethren and
j friends of our cause, this means
Work, more work and harder work,
j Every county in the State must
j have a good central committee at the
I court house and a precinct commit
j tee at every precinct. The liquor
forces are already organised and for
several weeks have been circulating
most pernicious literature.
We arc to be congratulated that
nearly every local and daily paper is
, with us In the fight. It Is hoped that
jwe have nothing to fear from \ icious
[attacks, at least from any paper in the
; State.
Our principal trouble will come
from pernicious methods that the li
^quor trust and its friends will employ
among negroes, the foreign element
;apd the ignorant. Our friends must
1 be on the alert, looking after the reg?
istration of voters, distribution of lit?
erature, and organization. The Anti
Saloon League will do all it can, but
we need your help. Our work just
at this time is In the Piedmont sec?
tion. We have already organized aev
ieral counties and have the names of
j eommitteemen on tile in our office.
Each man on a county or precinct
committee will receive in the near fu?
ture our manual of instructions. Ap
j peals for help have been coming in
I from different parts of the State. As
I soon as we have completed the work
I of organization in the upper counties,
we shall begin in the middle and
lower parts of the Stare.
if our friends who have already
made subscriptions to our work will
send In their dues it will aid us much
in distributing literature as well as in
other ways. We are getting good as?
sistance from men like Dr. Cllnkecales
of Wofford college and Hon. Harlot
Clarkson of Charlotte, M. C, in our
\ public meetings on Sunday. We have
already arranged with Dr. James Can?
non. Jr.. of Richmond. Va.. the lead?
er of the Virginia forces last year, to
come to this State in June.
We had hoped to make South Car?
olina the 16th dry State, but three
other States have gone dry by legisla?
tive enactment, to become dry Jan?
uary I, li)l(?, so we must be content
to take the 19th place.
1 Our slogan is "Three to one for
! prohibition!" Send this down the line
and work to that end. Our motto is
"Organization. agitation, education,
victory!''

O im MARKET NOTES.
Chamber of Commerce Favors Grain
Market und Market Shed.
Prom The Daily Item. March 17.
Tlie Board of Directors of the
Chamber of Commerce last evening
went on record as heartily endorsing
the Sumter curb market, and the idea
of building a permanent shed of a fly
proof character for the convenience of
the producers and consumers of Bum*
ter city and county.
The directors think that the curb
market is the greatest thing ever put
on In the interest of the farmers and
the eons imers. They believe that
everything possible should be done to
encourage the farmers to raise more
hogs, cattle, poultry, and truck, and
to assist them In marketing their
products in this city, not only for their
: benefit, but because it reduces the cost
! of living for the thousand of Sumter
consumers while at the same time it
gives the farmers greater probt for
their produce of every kind.
I The directors endorsed the plan to
get the county commissioners to build
a plain and economically constructed
shed on the vacant lots adjoining and
' on the southern side of the court
house park running out to North Har
| vin street* This proposed shed can
! be so built that farmers can remove
their produce from their vehicles to
i
the shed and display their wares on
J tables or counters In a fly proof place
In which the consumers can also go.
i The Sumter Civic League, Retail
-Dealers' Association. Legislative Dele?
gation, Sumter County Farmers'
Union and all other Sumter citizens
interested will be urged to cooperate
j in the effort to induce the county
commissioners to erect this market
j shed.
j The city and country are one in the
effort to bring about prosperity on the
farms. Every dollar spent with a
Sumter county farmer stays in Sumter
[county. The cit<- of Sumter is a big
j portion of Sumter county in the
amount of taxes this city pays to the
county.
t
J A few hundred dollars spent by the
j County Commissioners to keep up
j the "live at home" methods on the
farm meaji thousands of dollars in
I the pockets of the farmers and con?
sumers. The curb market helps hun?
dreds of farmers as well as hundreds
of Sumter city people.
I The curb market is a county insti?
tution.
I The directors discussed at length
j the importance of the business men
: of Sumter financing the proposed
i stock company to purchase the Par
I rott Milling company plant or 'build
a similar plant and installing- a flour
mill in time for the spring wheat har?
vest. A market and manufacturing
facilities for wheat, corn, and oats
are among the most important things
Sumter city must have at an early
date, if the Sumter merchants and
banks expect to reap the benefits of
the revolutionized agricultural and
commercial conditions brought about
by diversification.
If Sumter city isn't prepared to
market and manufacture the ^rain
other nearby places will be. Then
when the trade leaves Sumter it will
be too late to kick. Lost trade is
hardly ever regained. The commit?
tee in charge of the organization,
Messrs. G. A. Lemmon, J. Z. Hearon
and D. R. McCallum, representing the
Chamber of Commerce, should be en?
couraged by liberal and prompt sub?
scriptions to the capital stock. No
time should be lost.
Committees of successful business
men of Sumter have inspected the
Parrott Milling Company plant, and
have thoroughly investigated every de?
tail of the proposed taking over and
operation of this plant with the ad?
ditional facilities. These business men
say that the proposed purchase and
future operation of the Parrott prop?
erty, or another just like it is in their
Opinion not only necessary and ad?
visable, but that such an enterprise
j in the light of the revolutionised ag?
ricultural conditions will be a good
paying investment for the stockhold?
ers.
