Prather Case Thrown Out Of Court.

Barnwell, Nov. 16.-The grand
jury threw out the case against w.
w. Prather, who was charged with
an attempt at criminal assault. 1t
will be remembered that some time
ago Prather was arrested here on a
warrant sworn out by Quitman Roun-
tree of Dunbarton, charging that
Prather had attempted criminal
assault upon his wife.
Just before court convened Mrs.
Rountree wrote Solicitor Davis ask
ing that the prosecution be dropped,
as she had acted under the excite
ment of her fears when she had her
husband swear out the warrant.

The Baptlsts Are Angry.

Richmond, Va, November 16.--
BY resolution the Virginia Baptist
Convention has broken off all rela-
tions with the American Bible So
ciety and refused to use their publ
cations. The trouble grew out of
the printing of the Baptists of Bibles
for Asiastics in which the Greek
word "baptize" was translated
"dipped." The American Society
contends for the translation "sprin-
kle" and refused to aid in the circu-
lation of Baptist Bibles.

The Lid on the Cotton Market.

Ever see fellow with the seven
year itch and carry Waterbury
watch at the same time? If you
have, you have seen the busiest man
on earth.
What time this man had to spare
from his spells of scratching and
winding up his watch did not last
long enough for him to dig mess Of
"taters" for dinner.
The way the Farmers Union keeps
cotton liars moving to keep prices
from rising reminds one Of this very
busy man who has the Waterbury
watch and the seven year itch. In
fact, the cotton liars could never hold
down things to suit them at any time
if they could not hire help from some
Of our own Southern men to help
him scratch while he is winding up
his cotton market wind machine.
All farmers that stay out and will
not join either the Farmers Union
or the Cotton Association are simply
sitting on the lid of the cotton mar.
ket, helping to hold the lid down
while the buyers rob the whole family
of cotton producers.

Before you go about abusing other
occupants for doing dirty tricks, be
sure that you sweep the filthy stuff
away from your own door before you
start out from home.
If there is tradesman in the land
that sends out his products in a more
'unsightly and discreditable packages
than cotton producers do, / have
never seen their goods.
Every cotton bale of Farmers Un-
ion cotton must sooner or later wear
its label, giving name of grocer, gin,
weigher and inspector and grader.
When yon get proper guarantee and
reputation behind your brand Oh your
cotton bales, there is no reason why
your goods should be cut and slashed
about any more than bale of cotton
cloth if from the producers hands to
the consumers hands.

Pickens County Crop Short.

Pickens, November 16.-The cot
ton crop of this county is short
about sixty per cent of last years
crop. One firm at this place bought
last year up to this time more than
all the cotton buyers this fall. The
bulk of the crop has been picked and
ginned.
The farmers the past week have
been busy sowing wheat.
The corn crop is badly rotten OH
account of too much rain.

Bull Turns on WouId.Be Butchers.

Union, Nov. 13.-Yesterday after
noon while T. r.. Godshall, with
three other men, was attempting to
kill beef for the market in East
Union, the infuriated animal turned
on them and soon had them ali run
ming. Godshall, in trying to make
his escape. ran against stump, which
tripped him, and the bull caught him
from behind, inflicting quite painful
wound, but the others fortunately
were able TO keep the animal from
doing very serious injury. Godshall

prominent part in the fight for better
prices TO producers for their cotton,
some little 2x4 cotton slasher is sure
to hop up and call him sorehead of
some sort.
Well now, really every cotton pro-
ducer in the South could properly be
called sorehead and soreback, too,
for he has been brow beaten and back
ridden so long by cotton bears, if his
head and back both are not sore
he surely must have on a goats head
and hog skin saddle on his back.
No man can be friend to the farmer
and friend to the enemies of the
farmer at the same time. Such g.
man is really no friend to any side
and is an enemy to himself, too.
Before cotton growers can put
their business of cotton marketing
upon q creditable and decent basis
they must improve their present
slovenous and disgraceful system of
baling, and label each bale with the
proper guarantee brand specifying
weight, grade, grower and ginnery.
in order to remove opportunities
for waste, pilaging, loss and dirt, cot
ton organizations should have their
own bagging made from low grade
cotton and cover it better. This
light weight bagging would reduce
the present outrageous tare from 80
pounds to IL pounds actual weight, a
saving or so per bale at the rate of
10 cents for cotton.
BY proper concert of action this
cotton baling could be all made of
one standard weight and all cut and
stamped by the bagging factory.
What grand revolution and splen-
did send off it would be to the inte-
rest of the Farmers Union to look
over large lots of cotton all baled in
uniform covering with their guaran-
tee on every bale after a style like
that.

Our Farmers Union Bureau was
not formed for the purpose of giving
few men salaried positions.
The purpose of our Union Bureau
is to give to the farmers and the peo-
pie the most recent and thorough in
formation regarding our organized
movement for improved methods of
farming and marketing of farm crops.
One of our efforts will be to ac-
quaint producers and consumers of
cotton with the mutual benefit there
is in the breaking down of the COM
mon and powerful foe-the cotton
speculator and cotton gambler-that
pray upon the interest of both by
keeping up mountain of jealousies
between these two legitimate and i'm
portant occupations. These positions
of cotton slashers, short weighsrs,
paltry graders and unnecessary COM
mission men must all be broken down
and put out of the way one by one
in order to regulate trade and estab-
lish relationship between the spinner
and the producer of cotton.
The selfish, prejudiced, place hun
ter or cleakish member of farmers
organization is the worst enemy of
farmers to be found. Drop this man
out on the very fret round. This
sort of precedent will build nj the
character of your organization and
lessen your troubles in the future.

A Painful Situation

From the New York Evening Post, Rep
II is most painful to every American to sec
the President involved in question of per
sonal yeraciiy. Sharp differences Of opinion
we are accustomed to, bat il is something new
and distinctly unpleasant to have the Chief
Magistrate charge that q certain statement
about him is "a deliberate and unqualified
talsehood," and then 10 have the statement
reafirmed in detail. with threat to produce
further evidence If it is needed. But the ouly
wonder is that such an unhappy fate has not
ere this befallen 1.-THE most reckless talker
that ever lived in the White House, as an
old senator has characterized Mr.. Roosevelt.
His confidence has been amazingly respected,
but at last he has awkwardly stirred up two
men, Senator Tillman and Ex-senator Chand
Ter, who have small regard for the minor pro
prieIies, and to whom the fact that q commu-
nication was confidential constitutes no objec
ton to hurting out what they know about IL.
The net result is depressing At best, it shows
that the President talks so much that he for
gets what be has said, and that what he for
gets no longer exists for him. As one of his
close friends explains it, in such matters too
often 'his mind slips cog" Moreover, in
repudiating what those who have spoken with
him think he said. he does it violently, uses
no shade or qualification of language, but
rouadly accuses them of gross lying. This is
an unfortunate manner.

Terrorizins the Courts.

There was quite little sensation created in
the Senate recently in the course of Senator
Spooner speech on the rate bill. Mr.. Spoon
er referred to a case in which the court had
rebuked the Attorney General for criticising
a judicial decision, whersupon Mr.. Bailey
asked whether Judge Humphrey had gone
back on the bench by failing to rebuke the
President for criticising his decision in the
Packers case; and Mr.. Spooner replied: 81
stand with all my heart and soul for the dis
tribution of powers between the three indie
pendent coordinate branches of the Govern
ment, and regard it as fundamental that none
of these should be invaded by the others. 1t
will be sorry day for the United States when
the courts become terrorized by either Con-
gress or the Executive. The place to correct
the errors of the inferior courts is the great
tribunal created for that purpose"
Terrorizing the courts by the Executive is
precisely what the Administration relies upon
as the means of accomplishing its objects.
Roosevelt would regard any other means as
lacking in strenuosi;y.
