GENERAL ASSEMBLY WILL LIKE I LY CONSIDER OTHHR SOURCES TO INCREASE FUNDS. Liquor Question Calculated to Play Important Part Hi Coming Session? Road Legislation Expected. Columbia. Dec. IB.?There is no dif? ference of opinion with regard to the tax situation. More money is needed to'rbn the State government. Taxes are supposed to be high; they certain? ly are high in certain communities where old bond issues and extrava? gances were inherited'. THe simplest way to collect additional revenue would be by direct taxation of real estate. The general assembly soon to meet will most likely consider other sources of revenue. If these suggestions are worked out along conservative lines the new special taxes might prove worth while and a relief. Perhaps the most important legis? lation to be undertaken at the ap? proaching session of the assembly wtil be the Handling of the road con? struction problem A plan will have to be worked out satisfactory to the federal government to securing Its fifty-fifty money cooperation. The, government's funds will be available before that of the State. The State will hardly impose a direct tax for the support of a road commission. The solution of this problem is compara? tively easy by a tax on vehicles? motor driven cars and heavy vehicles. There are two angles that prove troublesome. Some delegations have Insisted that the license'ifOes collected In ?ich c?unty be expended in road IreW' oY'stfp^H.?bh[in the county where the automobile is taxed. Others suggest that the State Road .Commission be allowed half the tax and the remainder be expended In the county where collected. Ther* are various other divisions suggested. The essential thing is to have a general plan and work1 along more general than county lines. The license on automobiles has within the last fortnight been sustain? ed by the United States Supreme Court. This brief statement of the decision Will be timely: Roth Netv Jersey and Maryland im? pose a graduated license tax on both 'residents and no/n-realflents, based upbn 'horSOJpoWer.' In January, 1915. the Supreme Court upheld the Mary lend statute as not burdensome ort Jersey ?ase the contention was made that Ihn 'taxes were not solely for administration costs of regulation and registration of motor traffic as was the case In Maryland. The New Jersey courts held that the raising Of money by license imposed on' the tfse of cars, rather than upon the machines themselves, was clearly within the State's police powers to compensate It for the wear ana tear en highways. Kane attacked the law as discriminatory. Upon the interstate commerce issue, tho MeW Jersey authorities held that "commerce is more than mere pleas? ure," and that Kane could not attack the law successfully, as he was con? victed of violation while merely tour? ing through j Patorson to Delaware Water Gap, Pa. They contended also that a license tax is not a property te*. *? ? In answer to Kane's plea that ex emfltToV or horse drawn Vehicles Is unreasonable discriminations against lUtouiobliist*. the State held that ab. { normal wear and tear on the roads makes the exemption reasonable, and that non-residente have rib legal right to the free use of the roads. " ? The New Jersey ItM imposes licenses of $3 for Cars of 10 norse-1 power or less; $5?for W'tb 2() horse- j rower ana $10 ferx,hiore trUn 2ft horse-power. The* Arl&Hcnn''Antonio blle Association a.nd" tn<> National 'An tomoblle Chamber of Commerce Were represented in the Arguments before the Supreme Court here. ?>r course, there can hardly be a legislative session tVlthout &' rVqhor isrtue. If liquor is to'be brought Into the State and. it ts by tile tens of thousands of gallon*, the question miny are asking is why tho State can get no revenue out of it. The State gets a revenue on every gallon of gaa ollne and gasoline is harness, thoueh expensive. :*outh Carolina cannot impose a las on interstate commerce, but when the liquor get* to the express agency d probubry can require the exhibition of a license to the agent before the liquor ? .in be delivered.

Washington, Dec. 16.?That Britain alone- will decide the reply of the en? tente allies to the German peace proffer was made plain in official cir? cles today. The reason for this belief is^ bieeduse England Is financing the war arid consequently has the decision in Its own hands. X s?htmary of views of cabinet offi? cials who carefully insist they "drc not quoting the president," indicated that President Wilson is convinced that any action taken by the United States must be of a formal character, thai the righto of the United States are materially concerned because of the continued infringement bf its rights under existing international laws.

Proposed Legislation to Protect Land? lords iii ?ieir Rights and Save Farm Hands and Tenants From Clutches of Agents and Usurious Money Lenders. The 'following circular letter has been mailed to all members of the legislature' by Mr. J. J. Cantey, of S?mrri?rt?h: To the Members of the South Caro? lina Senate and House of Represen? tative^: During tJhe 1916 session of the leg? islature, .Senator Charlton DuRant, at my roquet, introduced in the senate the following proposed bills, to wit: An act to repeal Section 4165, Vol? ume 1, Code of Laws of South Car? olina 1912, relating to indexing liens for advances. Section 1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of South Carolina, That Section 4165, Volume 1, Cr de of Laws of South Carolina 1912, relating to indexing Jiens for advances be, and the same is hereby, repealed.

Every landlord leas? ing land for agricultural purposes shall have a prior and preferred lien for nls rent to the extent of all crops raised on the lands leased by him. whether the''shme be raised by the tenant or otHer person. No writing or recording spall be necessary to cre? ate such lien, but It shall exist from the date of tho contract, w hether the same be ih writing or verbal, and ihe landlord atid Kis assigns shall have the right to enforce such lien in the name manner, upon the same condi? tions, and subject to the same re? strictions, as are provided in this ar? ticle for persons making advances for lac lieu Rural purposes. Artd the landlord and his assigns shall have a lien without a writing of any kind on all the crops raised by the tenant pr other persons for all advances made by the landlord and his assigns to such tenant or other persons 'during the year, and the purchaser of said crops shall be lia? ble to the landlord and hie assigns for said crops or the value thereof to the extent oif such rent or advances as aforesaid. Since the repeal of the agricultural lien law in 1902, the farmers of South Carolina have been in a worse cortflition with respect to this matter thai they were before, and a clear understanding of present conditions ana the judicial decisions upon the subject will show the necessity of the aioresnld proposed bills or amend? ments. Under Section 3059, Code of Laws 1902, a merchant, for instance, < cu!d acquire a lien superior to the unwritten lien of the landlord for advances; but even a lien acquired under section 3059 of the CortQ of 1 -1.WS 1902, was limited to advances expended during tho year in making (he oop, and such a lien had to be indexed and reduced to writing. Section 3069 of the Code of Laws l!?o2, provided for what was then commonly known as the so-called ag? ricultural lien law and this section was repealed on the 4th day of March, 1 !><)!>, if* "fl, the dally newspapers and pretended friends of the farmers with one acclaim nnnounoed the freedom of the Individual farmer. But a re? view of the decisions of the South Carolina supreme Court since the 4th day of March, 1909, will show that the farmers of South Carolina were woefully deceived, and that the white farmers of South Carolina arc today more at the mercy of the negro farm \ hand than ever before in the history of the State. South Carolina is an agricultural community and the prosperity of all vocations, depends, to a very large extent, on the condition of the crops, and the condition of the crops in South Carolina depends to a greater extent on negro labor. Now, in order to control this negro labor, ever since the Civil War, the white farmer in South Carolina has had a lien for advances made to a farm hand, with? out a writing of any kind, and ever since the freedom of the slave, the Supreme Court of South Carolina has sustained the validity of this unwrit? ten lien for advances, as can be seen from a study of the decisions in the matter of State vs. Elmore, 68 S. C, 145, and Nexsen vs. Ward, 96 S. C., 313. However, the Supreme Court of South Carolina, in the matter of Cantey vs. McClary-Broadway Co., 95 S. C, 30, has limited to some ox tent the aforesaid unwritten lien of the farmer, by holding that the farm? er could not assert said unwritten lien for advances against a third party, without compliance with Section 4165 of the Civil Code of South Carolina 1912. During the 1916 session of the leg? islature, Senator Du Rant, at my re? quest, introduced the aforesaid bills or amendments, in order that the white farmer of South Carolina might have complete control of his negro labor, and in order to put a stop for? ever to the negro farm hand giving innumerable chattel mortgages, which at the end of the year, the white farrher must pay off, in order to get a farm hand for the next year. With the view of showing the fair less and necessity of this proposed legislation in behalf of the white farmer, let me illustrate: For instance, John Doe and Rich? ard 'Roe are good book-keepers and bank clerks and each get a good sal? ary from their respective banks. Either of these distinguished gentle? man could owe every merchant in his home town and decline to pay their obligations and there is no process of law by which the salary of cither of them could be attached; and this is true, for the simple reason, that the members of the legislature protegf] ? ftftj itosmfrg KM?atrpmi[li)ii.j In km operation of their private affairs by the absence of and the refusal to en? act a garnishment statute. On the other hand, I have a white farmer friend in Summerton. who, at the beginning of the year, rented some land to a negro farm hand and sup? plied him with *. horse, guano, plow stock, and gears for the horse; this arrangement between the white farmer and negro laborer was made verbally early one morning, and the negro farm hand agreed to come back next day and execute proper papers, which he did, but during the preceding evening, and within the space of twenty-four hours, the ne? gro farm hand executes to a Syrian merchant in Summerton a chattel mortgage over the aforesaid crop, horse, guano, plo\? stock, and gears of my white farmer friend, and under the authority of Cantey vs. McClary Eroadway Co., 95 S. C, 30, my white farmer friend is defeated out of any claim or lien in or on the crops grown on his own lands and for which he furnished the fertilizer and the horse and the gears with which to work said crop. It might be argued that the mer? chant will not advance to the negro farm hand, if the proposed bills are enacted, but there is nothing in the propose'' oills to prevent the white farmer releasing or assigning to the merchant his unwritten lien for ad? vances, and when the negro farm 1 hand understands that he must get the consent of the white farmer be? fore he can mortgage his crops to the merchant, a friendly harmony and understanding will be promoted be twen the white farmer and the mer? chant and the negro laborer. Further, it might be argued that the Avhite farmer will cheat his negro laborer, if the unwritten lien for ad? vances is not recorded, hut when it is considered that the farmer al? ready has an unwritten lien for rent and there is no demand for the re? peal of the unwritten lien for rent; and when it is further considered, that at least sixty per cent, of the business of the country is done on open account, without any recorded lien for same, the argument that the white farmer might cheat his negro laborer if the lien for advances is not recorded, proves absurd and groundless. In a private letter to the writer, the author of the act of March 4, 1909, which repealed Ihc agricultural lien law. or, rather. Section ::or>9 of rho Code of l;uvs of 1902, has this to say, to wit: "1 was the author of the repeal bill; my purpose briefly stated was to phieo the landowners where they could control their labor and wiest that Control front the hands ?.f the merchant; my purpose also was to nid our fai n* o get upon a eash basis, but the South Carolina senate emasculated my bill; I did not disturb existing conditions in reg rd to farmers' or landlords' lien for sur* plies or rent." It would appear that the South Car? olina senate, which is composed to a very large extent of lawyers, either Intentionally or ignorantly betrayed, the white farmOTl of South Carolina, for when it is considered that under the old agricultural lien law the oniy lien thereby secured superior to the lien of the farmer was limited to ad? vances made to the farm hand during the year, but that now under the ubiquitous chattel mortgage wherebv a lien thereby secured superior to the lien of the farmer includes past ' and present and future indebtedness, sure iy the white farmers of South Caro? lina have been crucified upon a cross: of gold, and the bills herein proposed should be speedily enacted into law. Finally, the enactment of the pro? posed bills into law, will enable the white farmers of South Carolina to protect the crops of the ignorant ns zro laborer, and farm hand, and tenant from the clutches of the organ agent, the picture agent, the patent medicine agent and the usurious mon? ey lender. "Wisdom cometh down from above and it becometh the strong to pro? tect the weak." Respectfully submitted. J. J. Cantty. -\ FARM CROPS GAIN IX VALUE. Washingtbn, Dec. 15.?All records for values of the country's important farm crops were exceeded this year despite the smaller size of the crops. The value was placed at $7,641,609.000 today by the department of agriculture in its final estimates of the year. That is $1,750,000,000 more than crops were worth last year. Higher prices due partly to reduced production and partly to the demands for American food from the warring nations of Eurdpe were responsible fdr the vast increase in value. Four crops each were worth more than a billion dollars. Corn, with a total value of $2,295,783,000 showed the greatest increase, being worth $573,103,000 more than last year's output. Cotton, the second most valuable, with a total of $1,079,598,000 in? creased $475,378,000 over last year. Wheat, the third, was worth $1, J 025,765,500, or $83,462,000 over the almost 400,000,000 bushels more. Hay was fourth with a v?tue of $1,005/894,000, an increase of $95, 250,000. Compared with last year's value, other crops showed the following in? crease: Oats, $9fi,G73,000; potatoes, 595.071.000; tobacco, $72,727,000; bar !ey, $41,362,000; rye, $12,774.000; buckwheat, $1,521,000; flaxseed, $13, 940,000; rice, $10,974,000; sweet po? tatoes, $13,161,000; sugar beets, $4, 24 3,000; beans, $17,992,000: kafirs, $2,112,000; onions, $1,601,000: ap? ples, $27,660,000; oranges, $9,540,000, and wild hay. $11,053,000. Final estimates of production show? ed a decrease of 60.000,000 bushels in corn from the November estimate and 32,000,o00 bushels increase in wheat. I AIR WEATHER FOR WEEK.
