On the announcement that DR.. Behr-
ing of Paris, had discovered a treat
ment which he thinks will be an In
fallible cure for consumption; but
which he does not desire to make pub
lie until next August, New York mil
lionaire offered to give the doctor $780,
900 If he would make the treatment
known at once. The only condition
imposed by the millionaire was that
other responsible and reliable scienti-
fic men should give It as their unqual-
flied belief that the treatment will be
effective. Dr. Behring says In reply
to this proposition that he Is unwilling
to accept aid Of any kind from private
individuals; but would consider pro-
position from the American govern
ment or from some organized scientific
institution. He explains that after al
his discovery is really no longer a Sc
cret; that he has already advised sew
eral competent persons of his owr
choosing, and that the matter Is safe
should anything happen to him. Dis
coveries of consumption cures have
been announced frequently in times
past only to raise false hopes; but the
announcement by DR.. Behring COM
mands the most serious consideration
of the scientific world. The man who
discovered infallible cures for diph-
liberia and lockjaw may very we'll be
expected to do still greater things
along the same line and 1t is not al
all improbable that he may have al
last found means with which to cir
cumvent the great white death.

EDITORIAL BULLS EYES.

Columbia Record: The New York
Sun says that the best way to incul-
cate business morality In the insur-
ance business, would be to put some
Of the leading men in 1t In jail,
where there Is plain living and hard
thinking. The same remedy would be
efficacious in other lines of business,
and especially as to public officials.
Gaffney Ledger: If the southern pa
irons of bucket shops would withdraw
their patronage they would do much
towards making the price Of cotton go
I'D. Just so long as the southern gam
blers 20 to the bucket shop and bet
that cotton will go up, Just so long
will northern gamblers do all In their
power to put the price down; and
they will put 1t down, too, for they
have more money than the southern
ers. Let southerners desert the buck
ct shops for one month, and then
southern farmers can get their own
price AS matters now stand the
southern gambler in cotton futures
is a menace to southern cotton grow
ers.
Columbia Record: The fall Of
George w. Murray, he being con-
victed and sentenced for forgery, ex-
cites more comment than the same
crime committed by white man
would, because Murray has long
posed and was accepted as repre-
sentative Of his race in this state.
He possessed their unbounded conf
dence and was held before the world
as being typical Of the possibilities OF
The development and advancement Of
the colored race. He swindled igno-
rant men Of his own race, which
makes his crime so much the worse,
because they had such implicit, child
like faith in him. The frequency with
which such leaders fall Is not encour-
aging, to say the least.
Spartanburg Journal A number of
newspapers in this state are printing
free a large amount Of matter adver-
tising the state fair to be held at
Columbia the latter part Of this
month and by so doing by implica-
ton either confess their space Is
worth nothing or that they are
willing to give 1t away to benefit Co
lumbia. The state fair, as everybody
knows Is a Columbia enterprise, the
purpose Of which Is to induce peo-
pie to visit Columbia and spend
money there as they do In large
numbers. Why the Columbia inter-
ests which promote and manage the
affair cannot afford to pay the news
papers of the state for advertising
the show is as inexplicable as Is the
action Of the newspapers which print
the stuff free, alongside Of other ad-
vertising for which they charge. We
suppose this Is none Of our business,
except to avoid being made a tool of
in this manner, but the incident Is
worth mentioning as showing what is
asked Of the newspapers Of the state
by the city of Columbia and what
some Of them are foolish enough to
give.

The proposed line runs through the
lands of Mr.. S. w. Barron a distance
OF 1915 feet and through the lands Of
Mrs Eliza ]. Barron a distance Of 2,540
feet. In the one case the area Of the
80 foot strip would aggregate 10 acres
and in the other case 1t would aggre-
gate about five acres. .frs ~
The land owners thought that the
damage would amount to about $50 an
acre, $500 In the case Of Mr.. 8. w.
Barron and $3.50 in the case Of Mrs.
Eliza ]. Barron.
After due deliberation the jury, Mr.
T. M. Allen foreman, decided that $40
an acre would be a fair assessment of
the damage involved and rendered a
| verdict accordingly, giving 500 In the
case of Mr.. s. w. Barron and $50 in the
case of Mrs. Eliza j. Barron and others.

THE thirty second annual edition OF
Latham, Alexander & Cos. Cotton
Movement and Fluctuation has been
published and THE ENQUIRER Is
pleased to acknowledge the receipt of
a COPY of 1t. The volume this year in
cludes 2O6 pages, and as usual 1t Is
filled with vast quantity OF useful
statistical and other information not
to be found elsewhere in such COM
prehensive and satisfactory shape.
Messrs. Latham, Alexander & Co., are
widely conceded to be among the best
informed and most conservative people
connected with the cotton trade, and
their views as to conditions, ETC., COM
mand universal respect. They don't
allow themselves to go to extremes, 10
become too optimistic or too pessimis-
tic; but are generally found to be In
pretty close accord with actual facts.
Referring to the situation as 1t now
presents itself they say: While any
opinion at this time Of what the current
remembering how deceptive the early
and even mid-season bad reports OF last
years crop proved to be, we venture
the suggestion that the early evil re-
ports this year are to be taken with
due allowance for possible exaggeration.
At the same time, we think there Is
every reason why the current crop
should bring good prices and II the
yield should prove to be not more than
10, 500, 900 bales, 1t is altogether posi-
BILE that through the combined erect
of legitimate demand for consumption
and speculative manipulation we may
see cotton sell very high between now
and next summer. In any event, the
prospect to us seems fairly promising
for the planter, and we have no doubt
he will take all proper advantages OF

THE MIILIKES-LUCAs CAsE.-Speak-
ing of the rather curious interpreta-
ton that was placed on Judge
Pritchard's decision in the Milliken-
Lucas case Sunday. and to which the
News and Courier called attention. a
lawyer who has studied the case from
the beginning said to a reporter yes
terday:
"Mr. Milliken asked three things:
First, to enjoin Lucas from further
proceedings in the state court. This
Judge Pritchard grants. Second, to
enjoin Lucas from in any way inter-
fering with a legal meeting Of stock
holders to be called, and at which
Milliken will vote. This Judge
Pritchard refuses, saying that the
court had no jurisdiction over the
question. Third, to declare that In
the meantime and pending the hold
ing of such meeting. the new board
of 1905, now in charge Of the mill,
shall be put out and its affairs be
managed by the old board OF 1904.
This also Judge Pritchard refuses as
a matter over which the court has
no jurisdiction.
unless my view is mistaken one
the case is not settled or closed yet
by a long shot"-News and Courier.
