THE THREE C'S.

Hon. D. II. Chamberlain, now the
receiver of the South Carolina railroad,
has recently been appointed receiver of
the Three C's. The appointment is con-
sidered a good one. Mr.. Chamberlain
has managed the affairs OF the South
Carolina railroad with signal ability,
and he can work the two roads together
with advantage to both probably.
There are now about III miles Of road
built and in operation belonging to the
Three C's. AS we understand it, Mr..
Chamberlain has the power to continue
the construction as we'll as to operate
it. It seems to US that it would be
greatly to his advantage to finish the
section Of road from Edgefeld to
Blacksburg, known as the Augusta
Division. It is graded nearly the en-
tire length and in addition there are
about s275, 900 or 100000 subscribed in
township bonds on this division that
would become payable ifthe road were
built. The cost Of completing this Sec
ton would not be great and the South
Carolina road now has trains between
Edgefeld and Augusta and if the Sec
ton OF road from Blacksburg to Edge
field were built the same rolling stock
could be utilized in operating it. We
are interested in the building of this
division Gnd we believe it would pay to
do it.

Ben Tillman in Washington.
New York Times

Governor Tillman, of South Carolina,
has been enjoying the privilege of occu-
pying seat in the House Of Represen-
tatives, which is a privilege common
to the governors of States. He is q
young-looking man, with smooth face
and dark, grimy complexion. He is
rather tall and slender, and somewhat
awkward in his movements.
His hands are rough and marked
with the scars Of toll, and the brawny
wrists are not decorated with cuffs.
He has a heavy chin and a mouth
every line of which denotes firmness,
the expression being set and not broken
at any time by smile. There is a
blankness about his countenance,
caused by the absence of an eye. The
socket of his left eye is empty. He
bears only slight resemblance to his
brother, Representative Tillman. The
man was stranger to the members Of
the House, as we'll as to the public.
He does not appear old enough to be
a governor, and be does not look like
the governor of State like South Caro-
lima. He seems more like son of the
hustling and hardy West. His conver-
sation is not fluent, but the lack of that
quality seems TO come from contempt
tor talk and not from a lack of capabil-
ity. He is evidently man of brains.

THE PHOSPHATE WAR.
The Commission Take Possession of the
Coosaw Territory-The Company to APP
peal to the United States Court
for an Injunction.
Special to the Register.

CHARLESTON, March 2.-The war be
tween the State and the Coosaw Phos-
phate Company was inaugurated to-
day, when the Phosphate Commission
ers, who went down to Beaufort yes
terday, embarked in tug chartered by
the State, and with Governor Tillman
on board went down to Coosaw and
took possession of the territory to which
the Coosaw company claim exclusive
right. Possession was taken by each
member of the Commission dropping a
lead line overheard and sounding the
bottom. The Coosaw company has
shut down its machinery and is now
idle with its 1000 or more employees.
It is understood that in case any per-
son or company attempts to move rock
in their territory the company will ap-
ply to the United States Court for an
Injunction, as the river now is a navi-
gable stream and under the Jurisdiction
of the United States. It is understood
that it is going to be a war of freeze out.
The Coosaw company will not mine
any rock itself and the United States
Court will be invoked to prevent any
body else from mining phosphate in
the disputed territory.
The Coosaw company last year
shipped 100000 tons Of rock to Europe,
and if the litigation is prolonged this
much rock will be withdrawn from the
market. Tie land phosphate miners
are jubilant and already talk Of raising
the price Of land rock to 50 ton. The
litigation also is expected to boom the
recently discovered Florida phosphates
No process has yet been issued by the
United States Court here.

SENATOR HEARST Is NO MORE.
The Death of the California Millionaire
and Democratic Senator.

WASHINGTON, D. c., February 2S.-
Senator Hearst, Of California, died at
$40 o'clock tonight.
Senator George Hearst was the son
Of William G. Hearst, Of SCuih Caro-
lima, and was born in Franklin
County, Missouri, on the 3rd of Sep
tember, 1920. He enjoyed but few adj
vantages and received a common
school education. His early manhood
was spent upon his fathers fam.
When quite young he entered the
mining business, out of which he sub
sequently made his enormous fortune.
His mining interests have grown to
such an extent that his mills give en-
ployment to about 1000 men. He was
one Of the first to go to California dur
ing the gold fever, and after a year Of
hard work discovered a rich quartz
ledge which was the foundation Of his
fortune. After accumulating large
amount of money he embarked in the
merchandising business in Sacramento,
from which he retired with forty dol
lars to return to the river bar to work
gold. He went from field to field dig
ging for gold and by 1865 was credited
as being worth 4 million dollars. He
lost considerable of this hard-earned
money in the financial troubles that
followed the war. He made considcla-
BILE money in real estate in San Fran
cisco. In 1866 he organized what has
been one of the leading mining firms
in the world. Mr.. Hearst was con-
sidered the largest mine and land
owner in the world.
His first political mark was made as
q member Of the California State Legis-
lature, to which he was elected in 1865.
He was named by Governor Stoneman
to fill the uneNpired term Of Senator
Miller and was subsequently elected t.
succeed Senator Williams. Republican.
Senator Hearst was one Of the lead
ing Democrats of the Pacific coast.
He leaves one son, William r. Hearst,
the editor and owner of the san Fran
cisco Examiner.
Senator Hearst was quite charitable
man. He established number OF in
stitutions for the poor. He was the
friend and patron of Miss Eleanor Cal
hOun. the actress.

4 SUCCESS.
KINGS ROYAL GERMETJER.

IS established as remarkable sue
cess. Thousands of testimonials attest
its virtues. Many Of these are given by
men and women Of highest standing
in the most honOred walks Of life. In
the midst of tiourishing and rapidly
increasing business the price is reduced
from 81 80 to s1.C0 per bottle. This is
done in the interest Of those whose
circumstances in life deter them from
paving the higher price. The rich who
have tried it will buy at any price, but
the managers feel that a medicine
which possesses such wonderful powers
should be placed within the reach of
the poor. Many have said that Ger
mctuer" was the cheapest medicine on
the market. When it is remembered
that bottle ofconcentrated Germetuer
makes a gallon of medicine ready for
use, it is certainly cheaper than ordl-
uarv medicines as to bulk; and
when the powers Of the medicine are
taken into account tie price is lncon-
siderable. The present price IS the re-
suit Of the unparalleled success Of the
remedy and the business.

Cash System Cor Schools.

1t las been part Of the work OF the
School Commissioner to bring the
schools to cash basis. He has urged
the inheritance Of this TO school truS-
tees over the county, and they are now,
in many in tanceS, fully awake to the
benefits and advantages Of such I sys-
tenn.
Last year we had on hand nearly
s., ,OGU to pay tie claims of teachers.
This year We nave over $1,000. This
means that nearly $3.50 has been saved
to teachers. 1t is their custom to have
claims discounted when there is no
money in the treasury to pay them,
ana they almost Invariably pay 10 per
ccEt.
Perhaps $4,000 is lost by teachers
every wear in South Carolina. 1t is
not right for them to lose it. They
work hard for it, as hard as any other
class Of persons employed by the State.
An officer holding high position would
feel insu!ted il asked to take 10 per
cent. off Of his salary 5efore it would
be paid. Why should the teacher be
treated as he is? Why should he be
called upon to wait? No one can give
any reason for it.
Trustees, however, can adjust tue
matter and should do so rs quickly as
possible. We believe that in two or
three more years the credit system Will
have passed away.

The Phosphate Commission nave
taken formal possession Of the phos-
phate territory heretofore worked by
the Coosaw Mining Company. 1t
promises to be a lively fight as the
Coosaw people claim they have con-
tract with the State for this territory.
The Coosaw company is one OF the
largest companies in the State engaged
in the digging Of phosphate rock. Last
year they mined about 10000 tons ana
paid into the treasury OF the stare
about sl07, 900 as royalty. They stopped
work last Saturday and thus threw out
of employment about 500 hands, and OF
course the royalty they have been pay
ing the State will stop until they begin
work again. They have a lot OF money
invested in their plant and the outlook
now is for lot of litigation.
We trust the matter will all be settled
amicably and for the best interests OF
the State. Although the State cannot
afford to be unjust to the company.
Large interests are involved an both
sides.
