SOUTH CAROLINA CROPS
eo,d Rains and Warmer Weather Pre-.
vailed.

VaIleGs
The week ending a. N. July 4,
had mean temperature Of eighty de-
grees, which is practically normal.
The extremes were minimum OF 90
at Greenville on the first, and a maxi
mum Of 81 at Blackville, Spartanburg,
and Yemasee on the 2Sth, 10Th and
Goth, respectively.
The sunshine was normal, or slight
ly below; the relative humidity about
normal, and the winds light to fresh
and variable as to direction.
Showers occurred over the entire
State; they were heavy in the north
ern counties and at places along the
coast, and they were fai. v heavy to
light in all other sections; drought
continues in parts Of Colleton, Green
wood, Kershaw and Bamberg counties
and over very limited areas in few
other counties, but generally the rain
fall was sufficient for the needs Of all
crops, and in places the drought was
thoroughly relieved. The rainfall was
heaviest in Chesterfield and Marlboro
counties, where the amounts ranged
from three to nearly five inches.
Damaging hail occurred in few small
widely separated localities.
The general condition of all crops
is better than last week, and the
rains !nterfered but little with farm.
work except in the two counties
named above, and in parts of adjacent
counties. Field crops continue clean
and well cultivated.
In the droughty. sections corn is
firing and turning yellow and is
tasseling low, but the crop as a whole
has improved; early corn is in the
silk and tassel stage and has been laid
by in good condition. Corn planted
on stubble lands has good stands.
Cotton is growing rapidly and fruit
ing heavily, with some blooms noted
over the entire State; on sandy lands
the crop is fine and is as far advanced
as usual, but it is small and about
two. weeks late on clay and red lands.
Sea Island cotton is doing we'll re
Gently.
Tobacco curing has become general.
In places the crop was damaged by
hail; new and undesirable growth
has started i'll places after the recent
rains. The early rice crop has deteri-
Grated slightly owing to the scarcity
Of fresh water for harvest flooding,
but the crop is still fairly promising.
Peas sown on stubble lands and plant
ed with corn have good stands. Sweet
potato slips have been set Out exten.
sively and are doing well. Pastures
and gardens improved where the rain
fall was sufficient, but are scant and
poor in the dry sections. Peach ship
ments continue heavy, but peaches are
scarce in many localities; berries are
plentiful. Melons are being market

TRUSTS DENOUNCED.

TRUSTS and Unlawful Combinations:
We recognize that the gigantic trusts
and combinations designed to enable
capital to secure more than its just
share of the joint product of capital
and labor and which have been fostered
and promoted under Republican rule,
are a menace to beneficial competition
and ar obstacle to permanent business
prosperity. We demand the vigorous
and impartial enforcement Of the laws
already made to prevent and control
such trusts and combinations and we
favor such further legislation in re-
straint thereof as experience shows to
be necessary.
Corporations chartered by authority
of the people must forever remain sub
iect to regulation in the interest Of the
people A private monopoly is indefen-
sible. We recognize the right of capital
in all legitimate lines of enterprise to
combine for the increase Of business
for enlarging productive capacity and
for decreasing the cost of production;
but when such combination in its pur-
pose or effect, creates, or tends to Gre
ate monopoly in its productions, to
restrain trade or to stife competition;
to increase cost to the consumer or to
control the market, it violates the
spirit of the laws, because inimical to
public welfare and peace and should be
so regulated, controlled or prohibited
by law as to amply protect the public
interests.
"We demand that the restraint Of
such illegal combinations be entrusted
to the Democratic party which is not
responsible for their existence, and
which has ever protested against their
continuance
