E. H. AULL, EDITOR.
Tuesday, June 20, 1911.
Hon. William Jennings Bryan, in
an interview given out Sunday in Co
lumbia, says that it is too early in
the game to be selecting presidential
candidates, and in this we agree with
Mr. Bryan.
Mr. Bryan is without question the
foremost American private citizen to
day, but we submit he is mistaken
when he intimates that Governor Jud
son Harmon is a back number.
Several years ago Senator Pettus,
of Alabama, who was then past three
score and ten, asked the endorsement
of Senator Pugh for some Federal ap
pointment, and Senator Pugh replied
that he would be delighted to endorse
his friend, but he was too old for the
job. This reply incensed thfe old gen
tleman, and he determined to enter
the rade and defeat Senator Pugh for
the senate, which he did.
YOUNG SPARKS AND HIS YAWN.
The next time the Columbia State
people send a man up here to get
news, we hope they will send some
one who will correctly state the facts.
The State man who was here Tuesday
night made. a botch, intentionaP, or
otherwise, of the incident~ in connec
tion with the awarding of the diplo
me True, his story was not pub
lished in the State, but- it was gent out
from Colum1fia to the .Spartanburg
Herald, over the name of "Joe Sparks,"
who is well known as a repoiter for
the State. This young man ought to
get his facts' straight.
Dr. Joimson is the last man in the
world who.would have countenanced1
any discourtesy to the goyernof ot!
South Carolina, anid. it, is a fact that}
no such protest was lodged with
President Johnson sby the gra'duates,
or withi any other officer of the col- Il
lege.-Rock Hill Record.
Just what we said last issue. Wel'
did not know who the xeporter -was
who sent out the news froni Winthrop
* in regard to the governor,, but It is
unfortunate that any reporter .would 'I
manufacture news of. this character. a
* The reporter should be careful of his a
fa-ets. -It seems that the entire istory
was manufactured without any foun
dation in fact. .
We would .like., to suggest ',to the I
board of penitentiary directors that
the best use to wich they could put
* the three hundred convicts - which j
'a've been in the .hosiery mill would F
be to build a good highway across the I
State, and -then anjother highway
across the State. They mighrt start
first and build the road from Colum- J
bia to Greenville via Newberr3r andI .A
Laurens and when thai is 'completed
they could start at Columbia again
and- .extend the road 'to -Charleston,
then -they could build a road from lj
Charlotte to Augusta via Columbia. q
Three hundred convicts properly g
worked under propier direction coulde
build jhese roads in a very short timed
and it would be the best possible use
to which their labor could be put. i

Magistrates' Court.
Magistrate J. C. Sample had five
negroes and one white man before
him Monday morning on the charge
of gambling on Sunday. They were
playing cards at the sub-station of the
Southern Power company. They
pleaded guilty and Magistrate 'Sam
ple colleted from each of the I
negroes $5.00, and from the white man
$35. His usual fee for a white man,
who is caught gambling with negroes
is $50, but he allowed him in this
case a discount of $15 for pleading
guilty.

The Hfeir's Regret. 'C
"I had a wealthy client who died a
hile ago," said Senator .John Sharp,
Tilliams. "He left his whole fortune h
his only son, with mhe as executor d
Ethe estate. iT
"Now h~ ha4 kept this young man,: ri
who was just turned 21, in pretty
close leash during his youth and it
was with eyes bulging with expec
tancy of a good, far flung fling that
the son called on me a few days after
the funeral to learn when he was
coming into his kingdom.
"'I haven't qualified as executor
yet, Bob,' I told him, 'but come around
in a week or so and you can get what
you want.'
"Promptly on the dot Bob turned up.
4fThe rperiod for advertising for
claims against the est'ate will not ex
pire for a fortnight yet,' I told him
this time, 'so I can not legally pay you
anything until then. Drop in in a
couple of weeks and I'll fix you out'
"Bob swallowed his disappointment
and took his departure. At the end
of a fortnight he promptly appeared
again.
"'Sorry to disappoint you a third
time, Bob,' I said, 'but there have been
some purely formal claims filed
against the estate that can not be dis
posed of until next month's term of
court. If you'll call after that you can
get all the cash you want, but I really
lon't see my way clear to pay out any
thing until these matters are disposed
)f. Come back in a month and it will
)e all right then.'
"Bob moved slowly to the door.
With his hand on the knob he turned
.o me:
"'Mr. Williams,' he said sadly, 'do
rou know sometimes I'm right sorry

WHERE THE COTTON GOES.
WVhy There is No Prese6t Danger of
Over Production.
dharlotte Observer.
As an instructive article which it
hinks has no.t had the publicity de
;erved, Cotton and Cotton Oil News
-eprints a review of the cotton staple's
iltimate uses, prepared about a year
Lnd a half ago y Mr. C. T. Reviere,
if 'New York. Cotton today, rightly
J-serves -this writer, plays a greatet
iart in industrial developn'ent than
ny other commodity except steel.
Vithout cotton -the mere stopp'age of
p)indbels and looms would be almost
trifle in comparison with* the para-'
irsis visited upon countless other' in
ustries. Some of these industries
iid the cotton- manufactures which
btey absolutely require are named.J
'The raillroads of thie world, for ex
mple, are among the largest consum
r's of cotton. From 'the air-brake
ose, whose basis is coitton duck, -to
ie "leather,'' or plush, seats, cotton
onstitutes an absolute need. .The:.
ailroads and trolley lines of the Unit
d States alone .require cotton cloth
stimated ' o represeit a quarter of
million bales. Cottont required inL
pholstering automobiles and as the
asis of tires is estimated to repre-'
ant 325,000 bales. In harvesting and
iarketing this country's great cereal
rops many millions of ya-rds of cot
mf duck must be used-about fifty
iillions for the annual output of new
lachines-the International Harves
er company being the 'world's larg
st single contractor for cotton goods.

gent known, get along without 'cot-*
n to insulate its wiies; sales in the
ew York market -alone are about,four.
undred thousand pounds of 'yarn,
reekly to the electrical industry.
imilarly cotton, clcith is required for
rowing tobacco ider . shade, for
hipping sugar, salt, and flour, for
tining coal, for tairpaulins to be used
i the' tropics, for the outer layer of .
sbestos coverings plabed upon ex
osed sriam and hot water pipes in
re-proof construction, for modern
nprovements upon wall paper, for .
taking pottery and cement, for coin
ags, for driers' in paper mills, for
agon tops, cushions, etc., for filter
ig 011s, for the basis of ruibimr belt
iand all kind3s ci rubb: hcre.
In every one of .these industries the
~quirements a.,nount to raillions of
zrds annually, and there are numer
us other industries besides whe
te requirements .-un high. The
avies anid merchant vessels of th
orld use more cotton cloth 'tha:i
tey did wheni sails furnished the mo
ve power. So vne see that ; o'efn

2iforms of the airmies of the world,
mnsisting of 'khaki cotton cloth or
)mething similar.
Varied dema:nd like this quite ex
!ains why raw cotton is high and
nds to go higher. It hardly toucles
le reasons why cotton yarns and;
oth are low, for they are low only~

nt it does afford much ground for

In order to combat this insect with
ithe least labor and iexpense it is nec
essary to understand two points in its
life history and these points are fully
explained in this article.
The full grown insect, a beautiful
clear-winged moth, lays its eggs in
fall on the trunks of the peach trees
at the surface of the soil. The worms
hatching from these eggs bore into
'the bark and these worms are the bor
ers. When full grown -they come out
of the tree into the soil to change to
a resting stage or pupa. These pupae
occur very close to the tree, about one
inch below the. surface of the soil. A
few stragglers may occur two to three
inches from the tree. These pupae
later change to the beautiful clear
winged moths mentioned above and
which lay the eggs for the next, gen
eration. There is only one generation
each year.
The important points for us to
know are, -the time these insects come
I out of the trees into the ground, also
the time at which all the eggs have
been laid. Knowing these two points
we can then combat the pest inLelli
-gently.
The worms begin to come out into
the ground on July 1. More come out
each day, the greatest number coming
out.' August 2 and on September 2
they are all out.
The full grown iniects appear July
20, the greatest number occurring on
August 22. On September 20 all have
appeared to lay their )eggs except a
few stragglers. October. 15 all the
eggs have hatched and gone into the
outer bark.
S.Pull up the earth around Ahe base
bf the ,tree eight inches high on or
before July 10. This buries the.papae
and very few months emerging tere
fi'om will be able to reach the surface.
If there are infested - trees in the
neighborhood that were not mounded,
moths will come in from such orch
ards and lay eggs. These eggs are
laid on the bark at the surface
of the soil. .The mounds are
taken down .October 15, and if any
eggs were laid, they will be eight in
ches high on thie trunk where the
worme can be easily located, and not
in the crown below the 'soil. There
fore, mound the peach trees eight in
chief~ between July 1 ahid 10. Take
down the . mounds October 25.
If your neighbors do not do it, then
you will have moths come in from the
outside and lay leggs. Walk through
the orchards November 15, a:t ;which
time the worms are in the outer -bark
about' eight inches 'high an'd can be
easily located by their castings. They
can then. be easily tak'en off with a
knife. Do not: depend on your knife,
but urge your, neighbors to mnouni1
just like you have done. For further
particulars Write us.
