Correspondence Of the YorkYille Enquirer.
CLOVER, Dec. 7.-As the public
knows the doors Of the Gastonia Bank
ing company were closed last week.
Clover is specially interested in the
statement made by the management
that "depositors would be paid In FULL"
by reason Of the fact that several leading
business men here were patrons Of the
bank ard had money on deposit when
the doors were closed. There Is now
no doubt In the minds Of the deposit
ltors that they will be paid every cent
to which they are entitled for the rea-
son that notes bearing the legal rate
Of interest, signed by. John F. Love,
the president of the bank, and en-
dorsed by his father, Mr.. r. c. G.. Love,
and two brothers, Messrs, r. A. and
Edgar Love, payable twelve months af-
ter date, are being given each deposi-
tor. AS everybody knows who knows
the signers, such notes are gilt edge
and can be realized on at once II the
holders desire. It Is understood that
just so soon as the affairs Of the clos
ed bank are gotten In satisfactory
shape application will be made by
members Of the Love family and 9TH
ers for a National bank charter and
they propose continuing in the bank
ing business. Mr.. John F. Love Is one
Of Gastonia's leading citizens, and he
has probably done more toward the
upbuilding Of the town and community
than any other citizen. He Is largely
responsible for the erection Of the
magnificent water, electric light and
sewerage system owned by the city, as
we'll as for it's public schools, which
are the pride of the citizens.
Glover has decided that she will be-
come chartered under the general in
corporation act. An election was held
on Nov. 26. at which thirty-seven votes
were polled. Only ten votes were cast

THERE are signs Of an effort to be-
gin the child labor agitation again; /;
but there Is reason to hope that 1t Will
amount to nothing. Designing ennis
saries from the north got people down
this way interested some time back
and secured the passage Of very un-
necessary law on the subject, and not
satisfied with their efforts they seek
to make more trouble. There is really
no need for further legislation on the
child labor question, as far as we are
able to see, and people will not again
allow themselves to be led away by
representations OF people who seek on
ly to embarrass the cotton manufac-
turing industry in the south.

in opposition to the proposition. APP
plication has been made to the secre-
tary Of state for the new charter.
Mr. Felix, Robinson of this place, has
set the pace this year as the raiser OF
large hogs. About q month ago he
slaughtered one that was fourteen
months old and netted 435 pounds, and
today another that was thirteen months
old which weighed even 500 pounds
net. Mr.. Robinson says the actual
money cost Of the s35 pounds OF pork
was about $23. That's what he paid
out for feed. Fssasa-.-ss
Business has been very dull here
since the recent slump IN the price Of
cotton, and the merchants say that
collections are very slow.
Captain w. B. Smith and Messrs. F..
E. Clinton, 8. A. Sifford and II. L

night for the purpose OF witnessing and
taking part in the conferring Of the

the Masonic lodge at that place. They
claim to have had great time.

Ex-senator M. c. Butler argues that
IL the government estimate 12,162,ooO
bales Of cotton this year is correct,
there must be according to the re-
ports Of exports and stocks on hand
still not less than 100000 bales of
cotton in the hands of the producers.
Judging the situation throughout the
country on a basis of conditions ex-
listing in Edgefield, he Is satisfied that
the farmers have sold considerably
more than half their holdings, ana
therefore the government estimate is
probably much too large. But even IL
the government is very near right
Gen. Butler thinks that If the farmers
will be slow to part with their holdings
they will get much better prices than
are now being offered.

WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME
FRoM.-Senator Carmack on Wednes-
day introduced a joint resolution pro-
viding for the appointment Of COM
mission composed Of members Of the
senate and the house to investigate
collection and expenditure Of money
by national committees in the interest
of presidential candidates.
The resolution declares that the
committee shall provide for publicity
in these collections and expenditures
and makes it unlawful to make collec-
tions from corporations engaged In
inter state commerce. The committee
Is directed to make especial investiga-
tion into the elections Of 1895, 1900
and 1904 and to go into the subjects
as to whence the money used In them
was received and how it was used.
The resolution was referred to the
committee on privileges and elections.

BY way of contribution to the
anti -dispensary argument now going
on, THE ENQUIRER begs leave to re-
mind some of it's contemporaries that

ments. We would not have 1t under
stood that we are being offered lots

uating that any OF our contemporaries

The Brice Bill.

The Greenville Mountaineer an
nounces itself as in favor Of fighting
the dispensary with a squirt gun-the
Brice bill.-Spartanburg Journal.
We have been noticing all along
that the Journal is opposed to the
Brice bill; but If it really seeks the
ultimate undoing Of the dispensary, we
cannot understand the reason.
The vital principle Of the Brice bill
is local self f-govenment-the right OF
community to protect itself against
the legal sale of whisky under its
nose, regardless Of its wishes.
The big central establishment In
Columbia depends for its existence on
the smaller establishments scattered
throughout the various counties.
Before the passage Of the Brice bill,
the counties had no say whether or
not the central establishment should
establish distributing depots within
their limits.
Now, by paying a penalty, any coun-
ty has the right to prohibit the sale OF
llQuOI "llHll IT'S DOIucIS. L HC ihISht
Of the penalty referred to is obvious.
Opponents Of the dispensary accept
the present law as better than nothing
but they are not willing to concede the
justice Of the tax that has been i'm
posed.
With the Brice bill amended so as to
permit free expression from the peo-
pie, there will be nothing in the way to
prevent a test Of the sentiment Of the
counties on the liquor question, and
as one county after another withdraws
it's support, the life and power of the
big central institution will be sapped.
OF course, there must be some pro-
visions for the sale Of liquor in coun-
ties where a majority Of the people de-
sire It, but with that the Brice bill
has nothing to do. 1t merely seeks to
prevent forcing the liquor traffic upon
any county, in any guise whatever,
without the consent Of majority Of
the qualified voters.

ONE of the latest prospective damage
suits against the Southern railroad Is
the case of a man who claims to have
had the end of his finger mashed on
by the slamming Of a car door. The
Southern will no doubt have to pay
and the plaintiff will have cause TO
congratulate himself on the fact that
the malicious. wilfll, negligence OF
which he is a victim did not occur as
the result of slamming his own garden
