Senator Mayfield Talks.

Senator Mayfeld, Of Denmark,
has returned from the North and
was in Columbia today.
To a reporter he stated his ab-
sence was for the purpose of secur-
ing capital for the cotton factory
soon to be erected in Denmark.
He succeeded in his efforts and
SAYS the new enterprise will start
with capital of probably Il quarter
of million, and he hopes much
more.
"The idea,,' said the senator, ''is
to use the cotton product of each
county without letting it 60 to out
side markets. New York prices
will then prevail"
The people of Bamberg county
are enthusiastic over the new mil
and will add to their subscription
no doubt. If they do the county is
assured an era of prosperity hereto
fore unknown.
Senator Maytield will make the
race for return to the senate, ant
will do 80 along the lines of equa
taxation, a fight with which he has
identified himself for many years Of
his public life.
