"Gov. Heyward's election to the presi'
dency of large warehouse company
emphasizes bis statement made some

HOLD YOU = COTTON.
Fourteen Reasons Why the Farmers
Should Do So.

Fourteen Reasons Why the Farmers
Should Do So.
The following circular from Mr. J,
e. Wannamaker, President OF the
Orangeburg County Cotton Associa-
tion will be read with interest. '
Farmers, hold your cotton for high
or prices
Because it is worth IL cents or more
Because it Is bound to soil at much
higher figures! ..-.
Because the man who makes the
cotton should help to make the price
Because trade is broad and strong,
and record. breaking as to textiles!
Because the mills are making mon
ey on basis of II cents and IL csnts
cotton!
Because the world needsevery bale,
and will take 1t gfeedily at IL cents II
we would hold firm! ....'
Because we are no longer slaves to
the north, but free people with our
banks full of money, and the mere 1anta
and bankers at our backs!
Because we live in q record.b eak'
ing age, and the present cotton crop,
which has matured and opened unus'
ally early, will be found to be very
short, when the worldwide and un'
precedented demand for cotton goods
Is considered!
Because the farmer needs the mon
ey, and deserves 1t more than the
speculator
Because money don't buy as much
now as formerly
Because everything the farmer buys
has gone up in price, why not cotton
Because the Southern Cotton asso
c!ation has fixed the price for gooe
cotton at II cents, and this assocta'
tion is fighting ourbattle, and has pu1
millions OF del ars in the pockets o.
southern people!
Because we should be true to south
ern manhood and the southlandl
Because If we show the white feath
or and sell, we will felt like kicking
ourselves out Of sight when cotton L
selling at II cents to IL IL per pound

As was suggested in The State ant
other daily papers Gov, Hayward ha
b,en puzzled to know what to do will
the enforcement of the dispensar1
law in counties which have voted out
the dispensary, At first his disposi
tion was to remove the constable'
and to trust to the people Of ths
county to keep down the illicit sale o1
liqu r.
Complaints having come from P ok
ems and Newberry counties, Ohie1
Constable Ham net was sent to those
districts to investigate. Upon bis
showing that the officials In Plckens
admit that they do not try to enforce
the law, Gov. Hayward ordered con.
stables to be placed there, but the
Newberry situation was not disposed
If pending the action Of the Law and
Order league In that county.
The constables in Plckens will be
paid out of the proceeds Of a special
levy Of half mill In that county. Mr..
Hammet's report Is as follows, ad.
dressed to tho governor:
AT your request I paid visit to
Newberry and Pickens oou 1ties last
week, and endeavored to gather such
information as would enable me to
make to you an impartial report Of
the actual situation with reference
to the enforcement of the law, which
report, I trust, will prove satisfac-
tory.
At Newberry I conferred with a
number Of the most prominent people
both for and against the dispensary,
and from q careful review Of what
was told me an led to believe that
the local officials and the better Gle.
ment of the citizens desire the en-.
forcement of the law, and are en-
deavoring to compel it In the city.
but at the same time I am forced
to the conclusion that 1t is being vio-
lated in certain parts. Of the county
outside of the town, and I would re.
commend that constables be placed in
the county where it is necessary to
prevent the traffic In whiskey as long
as IL may be deemed advisable.
From Nswberry I went to Pick
ems, where I found about the same
conditions existing, with ths excep-
tion that I satisfied myself that liquor
Is being sold in the towns as well as
In the country. Here, too, I inter.
vie 1ed 8 number Of substantial and
we'll posted citizens, elciting from
them sufficient information to warrant
the above opinion. I learn that the
distillers are again active, and that
most of the whiskey being used Is
blockade.
I'm view Of the above facts, ]
recommend that constables be placed
II Plckens county whore necessary"
Gov. Heyward in a letter to Mr.. D.
r. Coker Of Darlington on the 18th
of July stated bis position on the
matter. He will give the people of q
county a fair trial before appointing
constables.
