HOLDING COTTON.

"T. don't believe there has been
first-class bale Of cotton sold on the
Yorkville market since the Sd Of De-
cember," said local cotton buyer, in
the presence Of the reporter a few
days ago.
There has been some cotton on the
market. the buyer continued, land
have bought some; but 1t was not good
cotton-nothing but tinges and stains.
The farmers are not offering the good
cotton.
Cotton is plentiful. There Is no
doubt about that. I know lots Of far
mers who have from one to twenty
bales stacked around their homes and
some have fifty, a hundred or more;
but they won't sell: L have tried
number Of times to buy; but 1t was no
good. The farmers just won't sell.
They don't have to.
Il see 1t stated In the Anderson
Daily Mail" the buyer went on to say,
that the Anderson county farmers
have turned buyers. There Is but lit
tie cotton selling over In Anderson;
but where a man has to sell farmers
are the purchasers. They pay from
sixteenth to an eighth more than the
regular buyers can pay and get the
cotton. =, understand that the An
derson people have the strongest kind
Of faith that cotton is going to sell
at 10 cents pound again, and they
are picking up all the spots they can
get; but they simply won't touch fu-
lures. They want nothing but the
real thing"

of College and Jefferson streets. York.
VILE, was found dead In his bed last
Wednesday morning.
Mr.. Snider spent Tuesday at work,
and went to bed Tuesday night with
out having made any unusual COM
plant as to the condition OF his
health. He was late about getting
up and when one Of his sisters went
to his room to ascertain the cause
she was shocked to find him cold In
death. He had been dead for several
hours.
Mr.. Snider had never enjoyed good
health. He had been subject to indi-
gestion for many years, and was also
sufferer from rheumatism. The
medical opinion is that his death was
probably due to rheumatism Of the
heart.

der old homestead on the eastern out
skirts Of YoSeviiie a6out n years ago.
and was the youngest son OF the late
John j. Snider, who was killed In the

rity, temperate habits and Of ire

BETHEL, Dec. 16.-The marriage Of
Miss Lula Hunter Ford to Mr.. Has
kell Stanton, which took place We'd
nesday evening at o'clock at the
home Of the brides brother, Mr.. Jesse
Ford, near Bethel church, was an event
Of much interest to the friends Of the
contracting parties and the communi-
ty generally. It was an unusually
elaborate and beautiful home we'd
ding. The color scheme Of green and
white, emblematical Of the season, had
been carried out In detail in the deco
ration Of the hall and drawing room.
The dining room was draped In red,
and a huge fire Of Yule logs lent
rosy glow to the scene.

Dear" to a plano accompaniment by
Miss Emma Ford, and a violin obli-
cato by, Miss Isabelle Arrowood~

Miss Elizabeth Hunter on the piano.
The ushers, Mr.. Fred Jackson and
DR.. I. H. Campbell, entered first, 10!
lowed by two dainty little flower girls.
Misses Emily Dulin and Esther Ford.
Then came the bride, leaning on the
arm of the groom. They were met IN
the center Of the room by the ofhciat-
ing minister, Rev. w. B. Arrowood,
who, under a bower Of evergreen and
pronounced the words OF the
marriage ceremony. Immediately ar
ter the ceremony the wedding party
drove to the home of the groom's faith
er, Mr.. D. G. Stanton, where brilliant
reception was given them. Mr.. ana
Mrs. Stanton will make their home for
the present with Mr.. Stantons par
ents.

Mr.. It. P. Moore requesting him not to
decide what he would do until York.
vile had had an opportunity to see
what could be done. Captain Moore
talked the matter oyer with a num-

most Of them agreed to divert their
subscription to the proposed spinning
mill. Other people offered substantial
aid and the raising Of the necessary
capital proved to be a comparatively
easy undertaking. OF course. the peo-
pie Of Yorkville are deserving Of COM
mendation for their prompt apprecia-
ton Of such an advantageous oppor-
tunity; but to Captain Moore, more
than 4 to any other one man, be-
longs the credit Of having secured

Snider was the choice of almost the

amy, was on Wednesday committed
for trial at the next term Of the court
Of general sessions.
Teeter had asked for preliminary
examination and the same was to have
been held on Wednesday, but he
changed his mind about the mat
ter. This was because Of develop
ments which seemed to make the pre-
liminary entirely unnecessary.
At the appointed hour Constable

oner. Teeter began to assure the con-
stable of his innocence, saying that
he had lived with another woman IN
North Carolina; but that she was not
his wife, there had never been any
marriage ceremony.
"Oh, we'll, that's all right" replied
the constable, she's here to see
you."
She's here, you say?"
Yes, she's here and her father is
here with her."

There was counter petition with as
many names; but they lived further
away. Directors Boykin and Towill
voted for removal and Director Evans
voted to retain the dispensary: There
is nothing In the law to authorize the
removal of a dispensary even on the
petition of a majority Of the people in

indicates that 1t is being affected by

THE government will not tolerate
the unionism of the letter carriers
or Of the rural free delivery carriers.
That fact has been made pretty clear
by developments Of the past few days.
The presidents of both of these or
ganizations have been dismissed from
the service. In the case of the pres
ident Of the letter carriers, it was be-
cause that official had lost too much
time from his work, and In the case
of the president Of the rural free de-
livery carriers, 1t was because that OF
fetal had been too active in trying 10
influence congressman to vote for In
creases Of pay. The government
seems to recognize the possibilities OF
thorough organization in these two
branches of the postal service. At any
rate the officials now in control do not
propose to take any chances in loosen
ing their power.
