House file No. 373 was adapted from
the interstate commerce law, which
had recently been enacted by the
congress of the United States. House
nile No. 374 prescribed a maximum

They deliberately refrained from do

could pass the bill by voting for it.

the bill which the Cummins forces
first supported. The new bill was
introduced in good faith as a com
promise measure. II was not strong
enough TO suit Senator CrOssley. but
he knew a drastic bill could not be
passed, and being a sincere friend
OF the cause of primary election re-
form, he was willing to accept
compromise that would give effect to

the principle, taking chances of
amending the law to increase its
scope later. The compromise, as fin
ally amended called for county pri-
maries in every county which should
vote for their adoption. Majority
nominations were provided. Essen
TALLY the measure was the same as
the Saunders bill except the optional
feature. The bill was considered on

WAS BLACK LIST IGNORED?
A Rumor About The New State Board
Of Control.

Columbia, April GA rumor has
been current throughout the city for
several days to the effect that the
state board Of dispensary directors
at the recent quarterly meeting did
not faithfully regard the black list
the investigating committee sent in Of
whiskey concerns that ought not to
be patronized until a more thorough
investigation is made Of their past
dealings with the dispensary, that the
Richland Distilling company, among
other concerns whose names did not
appear on the published list Of pur-
chases, was given large order, some
1000 barrels.
President Block Of the company
was given as authority for this Ell
tertaining story. He was quoted as
saying to other jealous blacklisted
people that he talked to the board
"with the bark off," "In the pres
ence Of Messrs. Lyon and Christen-
sen Of the Investigating committee. .
According to the story the board was
running after him to buy on account
Of his charming prices and the quail
ty of his goods. When an order was
mentioned to him he bristled up with
the bitter memory Of the $4,000
worth of claims the committee had
ordered held up and told the board
and the committee that he didn't care
much whether he ever got any more
orders, but that if he did sell his
goods to the state Of South Carolina
the said state would have to buy at
the prices the investigating commit
tee said were too high, and more than
that the said state would have to pay
cash with the order. The purchase
was then made, so the story continued,
everybody, looking meek and subdued
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1906-04-10

but Mr.. Block, and the cash was paid.
Chairman Rawlinson was seen
about the story by a Record man, and
laughed at it as foolish and absurd.
I'VE have not bought drop of IL
quor, a cork, a piece Of tin foil nor a
bottle from a concern on the black
list, and so far as I am concerned
nothing will be bought from any Of
these concerns until the whole matter
is cleared up. No purchase was made
except those published in the news
papers as having been made at the
quarterly meeting. True we did make
a small purchase from the Richland
Distilling company when we first took
charge, but this was before the COM
mittee said anything about a black
list, and was merely for the purpose
Of filing in for immediate needs.
"The report that we have paid the
Richland Distilling company $4,000
is silly. We have paid it nothing On
the old account. and have paid in the
usual way on a 90-day settlement ar
rangement for the goods we got in
the beginning Of the year. see no
reason why we should be compelled
to buy from the Richland Distilling
company. Its prices are no better
than those Of other concerns that [
might name. Mr.. Block was before
the board in company with his rep
resentative along with Messrs. Lyon
and Christensen at our recent meet
ing, but it is all news to me about our
begging him to sell us anything. [
regarded the matter the other way.
He was there as any other, soliciting
business.

About all the cot n farmers have
to do in order to control the cotton
market is to control themselves.
We don't need more money, more
men or better business men in the
cotton states in order to manage the
cotton business. About all YOU need
is to get together and use what You
already have in hand, like business
men should do, and the power YOU
have will astonish the cotton farmers
as we'll as the balance Of the world.
Why is it that we find so many
Southern men engaged in the cotton
trade on Wall Street, New York? Is
it not because these Southern men
from the field know more about the
conditions of things in the south and
more about how to control the cot
ton farmers than foreigners do?
Well, then, why not come together
at home and use our own bushes men
and talents, and our peculiar natural
advantages for our own benefit in
stead of allowing foreigners to reap
the profits from our fortunate natural
gifts in the way Of the ideal cotton
belt Of the world?
Twenty MEN may stand about the
bog talking about the bad plight of
the COW in the mire to no good-but
three men may unite and pull to-
gether and out comes the cow on firm
ground. Farmers, walk right into the
Onion and take hold, stop talking and
pull together.
