There has been a deal of grain sown and there will be a great deal more if the weather is favorable. As the old saying goes, "The farmers are going to turn over a new leaf." The law to plant cotton ought to have been passed over all the cotton States. I tell you just what I think about the situation. There is some speculation that the crop is fifteen ^million bales or will be. I don't believe there is an over production unless some of the mills quit business. I never heard such talk as about this cotton business and prices; they are the biggest things except the war. We people are obliged to plant cotton, it is the only money crop. If the people of the cotton States were to plant all bread stuffs, what would the people of the grain States do? There would he hard times with them? there would be no market for them. It would be like the cotton, they could not sell at any price. Now, asV'Telephone" said last week, cotton is going to 10 cents. I believe so, too. And don't see why it should not be selling right today at 10 cents. There is a demand for it everywhere?we read where Germany wants so many thousand bales and England wants so many. And we see there are one hundred and thirty-five million dollars pool being made up to buy cotton and England was going into that. Eve lathing indicates higher prices. [ VWat is all this low price for, I can I not see?only speculation. The Amerl ican mills seem to be pressing or keeping the market down. I am not fighting the mills nor corporation of any kind. We could not do without them; thev give employment to thousands of people that could not do Without them for if the mills were to go out of business there would be hard times, for there would be no places for the operatives to go for a while at least. I do like to see big hearted corporations live and let live. Where there is union, there is strength, but it does seem like the people are so divided. "United we stand, divided we fall." When you hurt the farmers you hurt the world; but it seems it is very littfte thought about. Go to your town and see how dull everything is. You don't see crowds standing around, nor stores crowded with people. Business is dull; no trade, no money. Getting nothing for cotton is the talk. There is a better day coming as the poet has described it and where there is a will, there is a way. Mr. Golden Harmon, who has been sick SO loni*. is slowlv imnrftvinir Mr. A. S.

P1 TILLMAN'S* CHILDREN Senator Makes Statement Concerning U] Coming Hearing. d, . oi The News and Courier has received the following from Trenton, S. C., dated November 6: ' as Senator B. R. Tillman gave out the ai following statement: p( "I desire to make a correction w about the hearing to be held before Cc the South Carolina supreme court, n| concerning the Tillman children, on pj the 23rd of November. News items in The News and Courier of Novem- v? ber 6, and perhaps other papers, g, speak of this hearing as a 'contest' a, between Mrs. Lucy Dugas and Sena- ce tor Tillman for the possession of the ft Tillman children.' This is erroneous, tl I have not had anything to do with sc this lawsuit. The supreme court it- jj self initiated the proceedings. u< "The facts are as follows: The su- ai preme court issued an order directing ii< that the children spend the.months of July and August with their grand- jr parents, as their father was in Alas- ti ka. On the first of July the two little c< girls came to Trenton on the train, ir but did not get off the train at all, E nlfV>niwrV? ? * 1 ** vm-y were rnei oy ivirs. Till- p] man, who asked them to go home with her. They were sent by their mother st on the train a second time a few days lo later and my secretary, Mr. Knight, ol met them and tried to get them to get hi off the. cars, hut they refused. Some L days afterwards they were sent to 2' Trenton, accompanied by their negro p( nurse, who returned to Edgefield. My w daughter, Sallie May, met them and a they came home with her and spent tl the night. They seemed excited, hut rr did not show any temper. Neither of ti the children ate supper. The oldest tl one did eat after the other had gone e' to sleep. Next morning they ran away d to Trenton before breakfast and took is the early train for Edgefield. C "These facts were brought to the b attention of the Chief Justice and he w iniated the present proceedings of his tl own volition. si "I am deeply concerned about the tl future and education of these two lit- y tie girls, and that is all there is to it. L My son's lawyers will present his side r< of the case^on the 23rd, aand he him- o self will be in court." p it tl The One Universal Language. tj The one unlversui language Is not a Esperanto but music.

Much small prain beinp sown in the country which is ic thinp to do and it is a pood, sure ay to cut* acreape. I have already said in these col 'iiiim mat i uia not Dcneve in the reaction act passed at the late session ! the legislature, neither do I think te bond issue act amounted to a row ' pltiS. but mind you, it cost the state i much as millions of rows of pins id this is no time to be wasting the *ople's money, either. And then the arehouse bill with its long list of tmmission with "curly headed" Johnie at the top is all wasting the peole's money as I see it. I said in mv letter last week that I jrily believed that cotton would radually work its way up to 10 cents id it has since gone up a fourth of a ;nt. The European war is a dreadil calamity to the whole world and lere is no hope for its ending soon > we must just make the best of contions that we can, and move on as sual with a whole lot of economy id practive the motto, "live and let ve." Some of those people who are h;.ntig for signs and wonders and for the me to come when the world will >me to an end are talking and writig and even preaching that the great iiropean war is about the last of the rophecies ' concerning that awful /ent, but I do not see it or underon.i CJ 1 ...... .v -nay. oume petMMe nave cated the time by reading the Book f Revalations in the New Testament, Jt I have my predictions on what our ord and Savior said about it in the 1th chapter of Matthew. He told the eople plainly that there would be ars and rumors of war, earthquakes nd pestilence in divers places, but le end is not yet. All these things lust come to pass before the end of me and then He goes on to say lat an hour no man knoweth, no not ven himself and the man that is unertaking to place the judgment day i claiming to be more than Jesus hnst. After all the prophecies have pen fulfilled the Savior says the end 'ill come but He does not say even hen how long afterwards it will be, o it may even be a thousand years: hen as the Bible says a thousand ears is no more than a day with the ,ord. The Savior says this, "Be ye eady for ye know not when the Son f Man cometh," and that is all i.nortant part of it?to be ready and ; is really those that are not ready hat are troubled about it. Then if he Savior comes at cock-crowing or t nooiv-it will be well with your soul. The young folk enjoy themselves, far or no war. Misses Gladys Jackson and Mary luey of Gastonia spent the week-enitj nth Miss Annie Miller at Mrs. L. J. "owlers. / Misses Cleo Dobson and Annie Miljr entertained at "Rook" Saturday vening. Quite a number of their riends enjoyed the evening with hem, and it was not until the iron ell of the old clock tolled the hour of lidnight that they could get their onsent to adjourn. Mr. and Mrs. George C. Wood atended the silver wedding of Mr. and Irs. Russel Jeter at Santuc last Wedesday.
