'NO-SALOON' LAW
BAR TO LIBERTY
CATHOLIC PRIEST DEFINES ITS.
MEANING
WON'T STOP LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Rev. Raphael Fuhr Says Proposed
Ordinance Is Violent Trsnseres-
sion Of the Rights Of Amerl-
can Citizens

II consider It a violent transgression
OF the liberty of American citizens to
attempt to define and determine the
rights of individuals and to dictate
when, where, how and what to drink.
Men who have respect for individual
rights and believe in observation in
stead of contempt of the law, will vote
against the no-saloon ordinance. The
liquor traffic will go on. 1t will sim
ply be put out of sight, where the law
cannot regulate it, into the dark, where
no one can see it."
This was the declaration of Rev.
Raphael Fuhr, 0. F. NJ, pastor of St.
Josephs church, at the services yes
terday morning, in answer to many
requests for his opinion concerning the
coming anti-saloon election.
Father Raphael quoted a statement
made by the Rt. Rev. Bishop Conaty.
bishop of the diocese of Monterey and
Los Angeles, several years ago, as
president of the Catholic Total Absti-
nence society of America, as follows:
II have seen the prohibition princi-
pie in our local laws and my expert
ence of increased haunts of vice and
increased difficulties for true temper
ance work led me to despise the farce
of attempting morality by law. This
is one of the reasons that urge me, as
total abstainer, to add my protest
against placing in our constitution a
law which appears to me bad in morals
and impracticable in politics."
Bishop Conaty is well-known as a
total abstainer and worker for the
cause of temperance. During his resi-
dence Of two years in this diocese, he
has frequently asked the first COM
municants to take the pledge of total
abstinence until the age of twenty-one
years. On these occasions he has
stated that he himself took the pledge
when a boy and has found it to be in
valuable through life.
Rt. Rev. Mgr Harnett, vicar general
of the diocese and pastor of the Ca
thedral of st. Vibiana, when seen last
evening, stated that he preferred high
license with restrictions and the proper
enforcement Of the law.

MILLIONS OF PROFIT IN ORANGES

"It is safe to say that there is cool half million
dollars neted from the orange crop in Redlands
this year than there was last"
This statement by the Review may be taken
general indication of the seasons outcome in the entire
orange that the orange growers of South
ern California are, whole millions of dollars
richer than they were year ago.
The orange marketing season is not yet quite at
end, but enough is known to show results extremely
satisfactory producers Marketing statements to date
record gratifying change in the outlook that occurred
after the slump about holiday time Unfavorable eli
matte conditions in the east early in the marketing
made the situation discouraging, and top Of
that drawback the crowdng of the markets with
inferior fruit But all the early drawbacks had their
compensation in the latter part of the The
ange growers pockets full of money THE season

judgment is applicable to the orange belt generally
Probably it is a good guess to say that the orange
growers of Southern California collectively ten mil
lion dollars richer today than they at the begin
ming of this year.

CITY BRED MEN
WANT To FARM
LIFE IN LARGE CITIES is TOO
STRENUOUS
PREFER GOVERNMENT LANDS
Reclamation Service Flooded With
Requests From Cities for lnfor-
nation Regarding Crops and
Chances for Homes
PREFER GOVERNMENT LANDS

"By the figures at my command,
never has there been greater ex-
pressed desire on the part of inhabi-
tants Of the large eastern cities to make
homes for themselves in the country
than there is at the present time"
This is the statement of e. T. Per-
kins, one of the prominent officials in
the government reclamation service,
who returned to Los Angeles Friday,
after spending the winter in Washing
ton.
For every acre Of land that the
government intends to reclaim there
are ten applications for means Of own
ership and by far the larger num-
ber are from those residing in the
larger cities and now anxious to get
a little bit closer to nature.
ITO the average person this state
ment admit will come somewhat in
the nature of a surprise, as it is the
general belief that the larger number
of applications for homesteading the
new lands are coming from the small
farmers of the east and the middle
west who. after selling their farms
at good profit over their original
investment, and knowing the business,
are anxious to commence all over again
and make their fortunes in the new
west. In the settlement Of the middle
west, l believe, this was, to a large
degree, true.
During the present period, however,
the conditions in the cities are more
unsettled, and there is a greater
amount of dissatisfaction than was
known thirty years ago. The men of
the cities, who are now asking the
government for a chance, realize that
they are only cogs in great machine,
built up and resting upon stupendous
amounts of capital. They do not see
much chance for preferment.
Go West, Young Man
Horace Greeley's Go west, young
man, and grow up with the country
has not lost one whit of its significance
with it's years. 1t is just as true today
as at the time when the words were
spoken.
way for the expenditure of something
like $26,00O,0O0 in reclaiming arid lands.
II will take years to push the task
to completion, but it is to be we'll worth
the while.
"These city born and bred men, I
believe, are not the failures of the
city, who will be content to make q
bare living, but, so far as can judge,
the larger number of the discontents
are, as a rule, energetic and anxious to
better themselves. The department is
every day receiving inquiries as to
where information may be gained as
to the mode of living, crops, how to
raise them, marketing conditions and
the like, of the regions now being re-
claimed.
This information the government
will seek to give at the exhibition of
the reclamation service at the Portland
exhibition during the coming summer"

q COTTON BUYING TRUST.
The GreenvilIe News Publishes an
Interesting Article About te.

Is there a cotton buying trnst IN
South Carolina? The Greenville News
says.
The full story OF the cotton synoi-
cate was rot published on Friday
morning, I'd as the ether chapters
are Forthcoming it shows that tie
farmers are practically forced to take
the bull by the horns and protect
themselves against the evils which
are depressing the market. In the
interview Friday man familiar with
the methods OF the mills stated that
all competition had been removed and
that the daily price was fixed by the
president OF the syndicate, who hap
pened to be the president Of a cotton
mill In Greenville.
It might be well to says just here
that the things which have caused
such bitter complaint from the 1arm-
ers are not confined TO this city alone,
Anderson, Spartanburg, Union, 20.
lumbia, and in fact al mill centres OF
North and South Carolina, have to
hattie with the same influence and
element. Georgia and Mississippi are
not in the clutches OF the mill trust.
and export houses, which are not per-
nitted to buy in this state, can pur-
chase all they want in Georgia, for
instance, and sell it to the Carolina
mills. But they cannot buy direct
from the Carolina farmers, tor il they
DO 1t means boycott.
There are probably dozen cotton
brokers in Greenville. They represent
all OF the leading houses from New
York to Texas, and they sell direct to
the mills. These brokers never handle
any actual cotton. That Is to say,
they receive prices every day, and il
the manufacturers are satisfied with
the limits, sales can be made. Then
the cotton is shipped in the mills.
II these brokers could 20 into the
local market and buy cotton from the
farmers it would mean higher prices,
greater competition, and thousands OF
dollars to the planters at the end OF
the year. But they cannot do it.
! Why?s Simply because this mill syn.
dcate has given notice that il any ex
port house attempts to buy in The
Csrohnas it cannot hope to sell to the
mills. There is an understanding anc
agreement between the spinners ano
the exporters and as result, practi'
cally all OF the Carolina product is
saved for home consumption.

Derailment of the Engine Of Freight
Train Near Blackville.
The State says an engine on south
bound freight No. 73 was derailed at
Walker on the Southern railway four
miles this side Of Blackville Saturday
afternoon and Ben Horace, colored
fireman, whose home is III Columbia,
was buried uuder the overturned en-
CINE but escaped being crushed to
death by marvellous good fortune. He
sustained cut which laid open one
of his elbows, and bruises OF a less
serious nature on all parts OF his BODY.
Engineer 81. c. Wilson, who also
lives in Columbia, was more fortunate
and escaped with slight injuries. The
train was what is known in railroad
parlance as a double-header, that Is
it was pulled by one engine and push
ed by another. 1t was the rear en-
CINE that was derailed. Horace was
arried to Columbia Saturday night
and was attended by DR.. F. D. Ken.
dali, the surgeon Of the Southern.
The exact extent Of the injuries could
not be stated, but he is not thought
ia be in a dangerous condition. En-
gineer Wilson remained at the scene
OF the accident.
TIE track was blocked and passer-
ger trains Nos. 33 and 81 were detour-
ed by way Of BranchVille. The South
ern train No. 33 had left Columbia
for Savannah when the news OF the
accident was received and 1t was
stopped at the first telegraph station
and brought back to Columbia and
then sent around ever the Charleston
division to BranchVille and thence to
Blackville. 1t was delayed about five
hours. The northbound train No.
81 was brought around the wreck the
same way and arrived in Columbia
Saturday night at $40 o'clock, which
was less than three hours late.
