HOW THE LEAGUE WORKS.
A Simple Explanation of Its Modus

A Simple Explanation of Its Modus
Operandi in Selecting Candidates.
Many persons seem to be under the
impression that the executive council OF
the Bexar County Industrial League will
elect the League candidates. This is an
error. The various sections in oonven-
tion assembled will select the candi-
dates, and the executive council will
simply act as campaign committee,
using all legitimate means to secure the
election of their nominees.
LEAGUE NOTES.
An executive council meeting will be
held tonight to consider the political
situation.
Section No. meets tomorrow night
in KrisCh hall, to initiate new members,
consider the bylaws and to confer on
the situation.
Section No. (colOred) meets Sunday
for the same purpose.
A meeting will be held at the st. He'd
wig courthouse on Saturday, at 2 p. M,
when organizers will explain the OBJ
jects OF the league and organize new
section.
A convention OF all sections will be
held on the 10Th instant to nominate and
endorse candidates.

The larger q monopoly gets, the

pany, they had as we'll pass in their

Prospective Railroads.
(.4b6eriHe Ntssengv.)


Thore is very little doubt in our
minds, but that both the Carolina,
Cumberland Clap and Chicago, and
also the Chester, Greenwood and Alb
beville Railroads are soon to be built.
We base our prediction on the gen
eral sentiment Of the people along
these iLcs. They recognize them as
a necessity and are willing to spend
their money for them. It is useless
TO say aught of tho great benefit the
completion of these roads will be to
this place. It will put us on an equal
ity with the best railroad centre in
the State, and our merchants will be
enabled to compete with any market
AS regards freiShts. 1t has come to
this, we are obliged to have one or
both Of these roads, or else 60 to the
wall, and we have no idea Of going to
tho wall yet awhile. In addition their
being a necessity, it is contended
they will both prove paying invest.
monts, both to the owners and to the
counties through which they run.
To the owners by the amount of bus
mess they will do, and to the counties
by the amount of taxes they will pay,
When they are completed Abbeville
county will have moro miles of rail
road than any county in the State
and will hence derive'a..greater revenue
from that source. May the day soon
dawn when their completion will be
O thing of the past.

ABeEvrLLE, November 4.~-There
was a meeting of the stockholders Of
tho Carolina, Cumberland Gap, and
Chicago Railroad held in tho court,
house here last night. The following
gentlemen were present from a dis
tance: VIM II. Schofeld, w. H.
Moulton, Of New York, Maj. D. F..
Bradley, r.. A. Child OF Pickens; Capt.
W. j. Kirk, OF Cokesbury, DR.. T. G..
Croft, of Aiken; DR.. Fl. J. Epting, of
Whhamston; r. W. Haddon, of Due
West, Col. A. H. Gregg, of Morris
lown, Tenn. The president, Col. r.
E. Bowen, Of Pickens, called the meet
ing to order and made his report,
which was that the road owed some
$4,000 and had unpaid subscriptions
amounting to $4,000, besides new
subscriptions to the amount of $4,000
and $ll6,OOO IN bonds voted by towns
and townships along the line Of road
from Aiken to Pickens.
Mr.. Schofeld was called on for his
report as financial agent Of the road.
He made statement Of his negotia.
tions in London, which, he said, were
drawing to satisfactory conclusion.
when the Louisville & Nashville Road
annulled his traffic and rebate contract
with that road, the agent of the Lon
don syndicate was i'll this country to
inspect the country through which
the road is to run. The violation of
the contract by the Louisville & Nash
vile Road caused this agent to return
to London without making any in
spection. Mr. Schofield says shat he
had to return to London to make 9TH |

capitalists, as soon as he could make
n contract with the Cincinnati, New
Orleans & Pacific Railroad, similar to
the one with the Louisville & Nash
Vile Road. He snys he has another
syndicate that will take 81, 500, 900 of
the bonds of the road, tho entire bon
ded debt to be $4,000, 900, provided
he can comply with certain require
ments which seem to m outsider, al
most, if not quite impossible, but
which, Mr.. Schofeld seems to think,
can be met without much trouble.
Resolutions were passed and q
form for the bonds WAS adopted. Then
q power of attorney was given to Mr..
| Schofield which gives him almost un
limited power to make such contracts
as he deems best The Company is
now III the hands or MIR. SchoGeld,
and it is to be hoped that he will act
with great discretion.
The following board of directors
were elected for the insuing year: r.

interest.

Interest is q soft thing to those
who receive it, but hard thing to
those who pay it. This is the case
whether the rate be 7 or 10 per cent.
it is large factor in the commerce
" all nations, and exerts its Influenza
10 o. much greater extent than is
generally known. It affects the price
OF oil commodities, and more especial
ly does it reduce the selling price of
real estate. Take the United States
over; and the higher the rate of inter
est the cheaper the land. Some
might argue from this fact, that a
high rate Of interest then would make
homes cheap, and thus enable persons
OF hmlSed means to buy land. Where
II gives one a chance to buy, itdeprives
hVe OF homes which they had mort
gaged. A high rate of interest forces
land on the market and soon gluts it.
We verify believe that the success.
sion of bad Drop years has no more
to do with the present business de.
preston thnn our 10 per cent. inter.
eat law. Men can neither farm nor
merchandise proitably while paying
this rate. How many store houses
In Easley, Pickens, Liberty and Cen
tral have been closed by this law.
Those who have plenty of money can
live on the interest. without work, or
worry.
The rule Of the 10 per cent interest
law is ''to him that hath shall be given
Like the revenue paid the General
Government, it has a tendency to
centralize power. It enables man
to mako the most out of his money
by lending it, and that without en-
ploying any one to assist him. M"".
ey lenders !:s sod{er d than lii, may "c '."'F aor
and they do not want to buy farr
and improve it. They want q mort
gage bearing 10 per cent. interest
and there are plenty of land owner
to be found who are willing to talk
it at that, but VIC are still hunting fo
the man who can pay it and prosper
Ten per cent. per annum is bette
than spoculating in cotton.
If the Legislature wants to handl,
the interest subject in any way, i
should make it seven per cent as i
was, or else have nothing whatevel
to do with the subject. We believ,
that ton per cent is worse than nc
law at oil, so far as it regards the
business prosperity of the State. Il
shoald be reduced to seven per cent
or entirely repealed. The forme,
would lessen the amount of business
done on credit, the uumbor of ex
trnrnGnnt ventures, and put business
on a Legitimate and normal basis
