NICHOLLS WILL
URGE DEFENSE
IN SYMPATHY WITH PRESIDENT'S
POSITION.
Offers Suggestions?Fourth District
Congressman Was for Years Captain
of National Guard Co.
Spartanburg, Nov. 7.?Sam J.
Nicholls, representative in congress
from the Fourth South Carolina district,
is heartily in sympathy with
the President in the plan for national
defense. He has some suggestions
which he thinks will improve the bill.
Representative Nicholls was for years
captain of Company I of the National
Guard of South Carolina and has long
been interested in military affairs.
"I realize the inefficiency of the
National Guard in time of war," says
Mr. Nicholls. "This inefficiency is
largely due to the fact that it is hard
to get the men to turn out to drills
and take the proper interest in military
affairs. There is no lack, ot
course, in the fighting spirit in the
National Guard and it has been my
observation that whenever called upon
they have rendered splendid service
in riots, etc., but thev are certainly
not up to standard in knowledge of
military affairs.
"My idea would be to require the
National Guard in all the States to
drill at least once a week and to pay
them for their services a reasonable
u mnnnf Koainrr f Kic noir:v?nMf nnnn t Vto
amount paid to the regular army and
letting the officers receive their pro
rata share just as the privates do. In
addition to this, the government
should furnish adequate accommodations
for each company, and equip
these armories so as to make it pleasant
for the men to take an interest
in their work. In other words, my
idea is to bring -the National Guard
in close touch with the regular army
and to let the continental army vir,
tually take the place of the National
Guard. As it now stands, I believe
that the two months' plan for the
continental army is a good idea, but it
would be unjust for a man to have to
give this time to the service unless he
was paid for his time, for a great
many men who have the interest of
the service at heart and who would
make splendid soldiers, can not afford
to lose time without pay.
"I am not in favor of an extravagant
expenditure of money for army
and navy purposes, but I agree thoroughly
with the president that we
should have adequate defense based
upon a reasonable compensation. As
I have above stated, with these suggestions
I am in thorough sympathy
with the president in the proposition."
UNITED STATES REJECTS
POLICY OF EXPEDIENCY
Washington, Nov. 7.?The United
States in its latest note to Great
TX.U. ' 1 _ t_1? 1 '? . # " >
iMiLuin, muue puune nere toaay, covering
exhaustively British interference
vr.ch American trade since the beginning
of the European war, declares
that the socalled blockade instituted
by the allies against enemy countries
on March 11 is "ineffective, illegal
.and indefensible." Notice is served
that the American government "can
not submit to the curtailment of its
neutral rights." and it can not "with
complacence suffer further subordinax
. tion of its rights and interests."
Ambassador Page, to whom the note
was sent by special messenger for
delivery to the London foreign office,
was instructed by Secretary Lansing
"to impress most earnestly" upon the
* British government that the United
States "must insist that the relations
between it and his majesty's government
be governed, not by a policy of
expediency but by those established
rules of international conduct to which
Great Britain in the past has held the
United States to account when the
latter nation was a belligerent engaged
in u struggle for national existence."
Declaring the United States unhesitatingly
assumes" the task of cham
pionship the integrity of neutral
rights, the note proclaims that th-?.
American government will devote its
energies to the task, exercising always
an impartial attitude.
The'note, nearly 15,000 words in
length, was made public by agreement
between the State department and the
British foreign office. It carries with
it a voluminous appendix, giving r.he
text of the American naval instructions
issued in 1802 and a summary
and table showing hundreds of vessels
detained by British authorities since
the beginning of the present war.
The body of the note is divided
into 35 points, dealing with all phases
of the contraband question, seizures
and detentions, prior to, as well as
after, the socalled blockade was instituted,
and announces that a separate
communication will be sent soot,
dealing particularly with the "propriety
and right of the British govv
ernment to include in their list of
contraband of war certain articles
which have been so included."

WILSON'S PICTURE
WOVEN IN CLOTH.
Washington, Nov. 4.?The White
House today received from John J.
McSwain of Greenville a copy of a
portrait of President Wilson woven
into cloth, the cotton making it being
dyed, spun and woven in the textile
school at Clemson college.
Mr. McSwain's letter accompanying
the portrait is as follows:
"I have the honor to send you by
separate parcel a copy of a portrait
of yourself woven into the texture of
cloth. Prof. C. W. McSwain of
' Clemson college, and was woven this
day by him on a Jacquard loom in the
exhibit at Clemson college at the
great Southern textile exposition now
in progress at Greenville.
"You may be interested to know
that the threads making up this cloth
are all of South Carolina cotton, dyed
at Clemson college in fast color and
will not fade in water. It is practically
certain that you have the distinction
of being the only president
of the United States whose likeness
has been woven into cotton cloth.
"Please accept this likeness with
the compliments of myself and my
brother."
Secretary Tumulty and other White
House officials were much impressed
by the novel production and it will no
doubt be grtatly prized by the president,
especially because it came from
Southern friends.
IN MEMORY OF C. B. BOBO..
He is gone, our precious father,
He is sleeping in the tomb.
Calmly sleeping till the dawning
Of the resurrection morn.
They have placed him in the casket
And have born his form away.
Still in death he's only sleeping,
'Till the resurrection day.
'Neath a mound of blooming roses,
Cold in death our father lies,
But his spirit's with the angels
In that home beyond the skies.
Oh, 'tis lonely here without him;
In this world of toil and care;
But we'll join him with the ransomed,
In that land so bright and fair.
Yes, 'twill be a happy greeting
When we meet to part *io more;
With our friend and loved one waiting
On that bright eternal shore.
God needed one more angel
Among his shining band,
So he reached his loving arms
And clasped our father's hands.
j We loved him, oh, we loved him,
But Jesus loved him more.
He has gone to be with Jesus,
On that bright and peaceful shore.
Tho his weary body's resting
There beneath the cold, cold clay,
Where all pain is gone forever,
And he waits the judgment day.
We miss him, oh, we miss him,
Here on this lonesome path.
His home is dark without him;
We miss him everywhere.
His Daughter Lillie.

"SAKE FARMING*' ALWAYS.
Outline of a I'rogram Recommended
by Government Specialists to Secure
Safetv in the f'nlfnn
Washington, Nov. 1.?A program of
"Safe Farming" for the South is outlined
in a circular which the United
States Department of Agriculture has
sent to bankers, business men and
farmers in the cotton States. The history
of agriculture in the South, it
has been said, has been one of lean
years and fat years. Short crops and
high prices have almost ihvariably
been followed by big crops and low
prices and, in consequence, the farmes
has experienced much distress. The
increased attention which has recently
been given to supporting the people
upon the land has already resulted in
much good, but there is some danger,
it is pointed out, that, with the price
of cotton rising, there will be a tendency
for farmers to return to the old
system of gambling on cotton. If the
people of the South produced their
own living, the circular points out, it
would steady the whole system and
keep the boat from rocking. The safety
measures recommended are as fol
tows:
First: Produce a home garden for
every family on the farm, the year
round, paying special attention to a
plot of Irish or sweet potatoes sufficient
to supply the family with food
of this character. Where fea&iblc,
have a patch of sorghum or other cane
to produce syrup for the family. '
Second: Produce the corn necessary*
to support all of the people on the
farm and the live stock, with-absed<ni?
safety.
Third: Produce the necessary other
small grain to supplement the corn as
food. Pay attention to winter grazing.
Fourth: Produce hay and forage
from some forage crop, sufficient to
supply all of the live stock on the
farm. Use legumes such as clover,
cowpeas, velvet beans, soy beans and
alfalfa for the production of hay and
to enrich the soil with nitrogen and
humus.
Fifth: Produce the meat necessary
to supply the people, through increased
attention to poultry and hogs,
especially. Plan to increase gradually
the number of cattle and other live
stock so as to have a sufficient number
to consume the waste products of
the farm and make the waste lands
productive.
Sixth:. After all of these things
have been amply provided for, produce
cotton for the'market.

I was over in Ireland the other day
And I saw Pat, the soldier, march

"Well, what do you think of this terrible

"Faith, I think by the Saints that the

"And how does it feel to be Koine' to

"It feels like a kick from your moth- |

"And what do you think was the
cause of the scrap?"
"Sure the Kowser he wanted the whole j
dad-burned map!"
"Why, I thought he just wanted his
'place in the sun.' "
"If he doesn't want the sun I'm a sonof-a-gun!"
"Well, how do you think the whole
business will end?"
"We'll lick, by the help of the Irish, t
