THE ABBEVILLE PARTITION.
A Hearing BEFORE the Senate and
House Committees on Privileges
and Elections In Joint Session Be
suits In Two UDfayOrable Reports
-DOualds WILL StfIk Be With Us.

Colunb bia, January l9.-The joint session of
the Senate and House COMMITTEES on privi-
legss and elections reconvened at 1880 this
morning and heard argument on the bill TO
take certain territory from The county Of Alb
beville and incorporate II into Greenwood
County There was an election held In The
town lips Of Donalds. Due West and Long
Cane sometime ago TO determine whether
certain portions Of those townships would
leave Abbeville county and 90 to Greenwood
county. Two-thirds OF the voters Of the terri.
tory proposed To be cot off voted To 60 to
Greenwood. but the county board Of canvass
ers declared that the election was illegal, In
asmuch as poll-taX receipts were not demand.
ed Of voters In compliance with the registra-
tion law. A bill was introduced at this ses-
sion OF the General Assembly TO incorporate
the disputed territory into Green wood county.
Mr.. F. Barron Grier appeared before the
com mittee TO present the claims OF Green
wood county to the disputed territory. He
coptended that the precinct managers had
held q fair election, and that their tabulated
returns should have been accepted, and the
authority In the matter, and could not de-
clare an election illegal, that power resting
altogether with the Supreme Court. He cou-
the declarations of the county board OF can
vassers and accept the tabuiated statements
OF the election managers, and should pass the
bill changing the boundary line OF Greenwood
county so as 10 include the disputed portion
OF Donalds, Due West and Long Cane town.
ships.
Mr.. w. N. GraydoD, OF Abbeville, repre-.
sented the county of Abbevilie. He took the
position that the decision OF the county
board OF can nvassers was final, and could only
be reviewed by appeal 10 the State board OF
canvassers. He claimed that the election
was illegal because the voters did not show
poll-tax receipts. He urged the committee to
make an unfavorable report because the Con-
stilution makes 1t optional with the Legisla.
ture whether or not 1t will carry out the
wishes OF the people In changing territory
from one county 10 another, or In forming
new counties. He requested the committee to
exercise Its authority by reporting the bill
unfavorably, because to allow this territory
to 90 to Greenwood would work injury to
Abbeville county. 1t was unreasonable, for II
would leave Abbeville with a panhandle
only two miles wide at its upper end.
Mr.. Grier, in reply, said there was no state
board OF canvassers 10 appeal To, and thai
can vassing boards had no Jurisdiction to de-
clare on the validity OF elections.
After hearing the arguments the commit
tees separately deliberated on the matter
and each committee decided to make an un'
favorable report on the Dill.

ESTABLISHED 1914

I was interested with a large number
of people from the North, who had
purchased q great property in one of
the Southern States and who proposed
to build railroad which would cost
two and one-half million dollars. The
money was subscribed and arrange
ments were completed. They found
out that the only way to build the rail-
road was to 60 to the Legislature Of the
State. then in its last days, and lobby
through bill giving them authority
to build the railroad. They attempted
1t, and one of the powerful men in the
legislature was interested in another
enterprise nearby, and he defeated this
matter, and one Of the most nagnifi-
cent sections of the South today lies
silent because of illiberal laws. I
speak in all sincerity, and may speak
an unpalatable truth, when / say that
one CT the chief oppositions to our sue
cess as great manufacturing and
diversified farming section is that
without intending 1t our laws have
been constituted in the fear rather than
the love Of corporate enterprises. Let
us remove. this barrier by liberal legis-
lation and invite the railroads and
manufactures to our midst. 1T will
not come except by Incorporated capt.

Feeding the Land.

Poor land can never be improved
unless something is added to 1t. 5It iss
to allow time in the effort to
grow crops to be >plowed under them
than to attempt to take'a scanty crop
from the land. When the land Is
poor the manure should be concentrat-
ed on smaller areas and allow p0r--.
tion Of the land to 20 uncropped until
manure can be given it. Time will be
saved, however, by using green manu-
rial crops and fertilizers. The farmer
who pays taxes on poor land taxes
himself unnecessarily. Z

destruction of the agricultural interest
of Massachusetts, and an argument

VALUE OF HOME MARKET.

I take it that it needs no argument
to show that the ultimate end of the
Southern farmer should be the estab-
lishment of home market which will
bring the diver-ification Of his pro-
duets. This primarily can only he
brought about by the building of rail-
roads. The manufactory soon follows

by the Illinois Central.
New YORK. Aug. 29.-The Herald
says: From semi-oficial sources 1t i
learned that a deal is pending in Wall
street whereby the Illinois Central may
get control of the Minneapolis and st.
Louis railroad.
Negotiations to this end are said to
have been under way for some time BE-
tween the Harriman-Fish interests.
representing the Illinois Central, and
President Edwin R. Hawley. repre-
senting the present control OF the MIN
neapolis and St. Louis. No definite
agreement has vet been reached. but
Wall street interests having knowledge
of the situation say that in any event
a traffic alliance will be effected and
that a
Change of Control
will probably be brought about. A SUI
perficial glance at the maps indicating
the geographical positions of the two
properties, shows that such a deal
would be greatly to the advantage OF
both roads. The Illinois Central would
be given access to territory rich in
traffic, which it does not touch: would
get fine terminals in Minnesota's twin
cities. Minneapolis and st. Paul, and
would have practically a through line
from Duluth to the Gulf of Mexico.
Railroad men agree the Minneapolis
and st. Louis has terminal facilities
the equal Of any in st. Paul and the
best in Minneapolis.
Scheme Of Expansion.
President %Stuyvesant Fish and E. II.
Hartman. who are controlling factors
in Illinois Central affairs, have been
carrying out a scheme of expansion for
some time past. First the Illinois Cen
trail acquired the Mississippi and Yazoo
Valley lines. Then followed the pur-
chase af the Chesapeake, Ohio and
Southwestern. running from Memphis
to Louisville. The extension Of the
Dubuque and Sioux City road into
Omaha, which will be completed this
fall, was the next undertaking.
Now ome the proposition to gain an
entrance into St. Paul and Minneapolis.
Through lines already in operation, the
would then extend to the head
of Lake Superior. thus giving an un-
broken line from Duluth to New Or
