THE GAME LAW.

The Herald and News few DAYS
ago published the game Law. 1t will
be recalled inaI in lhis county it is
unlHwll'l 10 kill partridge or quail
ulil the ljln Of November. In the
counties surrounding ui, namely, Sal
l,da, Lexington, and Fairfield, the
open Sca,"h begins ON the lirst of No.
vrmbrr. The hunters have, however,
as il rule paid very little attention to
the law; and we arc Informed that
Il great many people have been shoot
inc quail since lnc first Of November.
\ gentleman Of this county. who
does Il rood deal Of hunting during
the ScANnl. suggested the other day
that there Wn1 Il greater enemy 10
the came uI ,his; country Than the
hunter and tnr shotgun. and that enc
my WAS the du@. ir insist, that all
dogs should be kept ur. like cattle
and hogs. during the closed season;
for the reason that they destroy the
Young birds.
"" do net j.n"w just how he r"nld
accomplish his purpose, unless it waS
made lawful {" kill every dog on
sight that WaS seen roanDnT al large.
And If that were done, we would soon
rxlrrminatr the race Of dogs in this
country. There can be little doubt
hnwrvrr. tha, he is correct, il that
the dogs do destroy more birds than
arc killed by the hunter with his shot
gun. IIc says that il is impossible to
raise successfully pea fowls or gum
cas-; because about the time that the
good housewife gets the nest made, Il
stray dog comes along and destroys
all Of the r~~S. There can be little
doubt that We have loo MANY dogs
in This country. and If VIC could h'-
wise Sumr plan tn Grt rid "i some OF
them. at least. we wnnlu be better
off.

STAND TOGETHER.

II clearing house certificates would
relieve amy community then that com
munily ought to issue clearing house
certificates. Farmers and merchants
can help by drpoSi'in- money IN
banks anh they ought to DO this Ev-
cry little helps. The idea is to keep
up the price Of cotton, keep wages
fair and keep goods moving in the
stores. We cam do all these for our
selves. We used to think that some
body from aiar had to come with the
money to build cotton mill for MS.
Now we know we can build one our
selves when we try. So we caa help
ourselves in money matters II We try
The banks must help the FARMER, mcr-
chant and mechanic and these IN
turn must deposit their money in the
banks. It's the old story of the
stomach anh the members. If carn
helps the other all round we will all
come ont all right tirrrnvlllc News.
The above from the GMrnvillc
News is very true and along the same
line that we tried 10 impress upon our
people in Tuesdays paper. Every
body who has money and who does
not need it for Immediate use should
deposit il in banks. If all the money
that is withdrawn from circulation,
even in small quantities in this com
muuitv, WAS taken from the pockets
Of those who have If. and placed III
banks. it would add very materially
tu the amount Of currency and would
thus be put in circulation and at the
same time be I,crl'rctiy secure and
safe. and could be obtained for use
when needed. There can be no doubt
thm anything That the merchant or
the banker. or amy other business
man. can do 10 aid the farmer in Sc
curing a better price for his cotton,
will help everybody not only i'll the
south hui throughout the country.
We cannot help believing thai the
present panicly condition Of the
money market has been brought about
largely by the spectators il New
York. who are trying to bear down
the cotton market. This is time
when everybody should work together
and give his Influence and his assist
amcc in helping to relieve The situa-
ton.

HIGH-PRICED COTTON WHICH rs
NOT HIGH AT ALL,

One insutlicicntly considered result
Of the good prices for cotton obtained
dnrinG recent years is Il much nighcr
capitalization Of land and consequent
pressure for earning interest on great
cr INVESTMENT values. In this conncc-
lion some interesting facts are point
ch out by tn Wall Street journal.
During. 'i.r latest / crop years we av-
cragr export price of cotton wHS lhG
cents. The average export price for
the four years immediately rrcrcd-
ING WAS Sc cents. "Duriu% the four
year period Just rl">rd.' says oar
raaurlal contemporary IN rrnimcut-
lng upon these Figures, 'tIrrc has
been IL very general buying OF Gotten
lands with the surplus derived l'rcm
higher cotton profits" This has rails
ed the value OF cotton landS TO Il H.
yurc FAR above the value Of earlier
years Of the present drcadc. Mach Of
the cultua now selling for 10 nlS
has been grown ON these hl|nrr-prlc-
cd lands. As long us cotton prices
remain on the l0-cent level, things
may go on smoothly enough under
this high capitalization Of land. But
if cotton should decline to s or even
9 cents II pound, the burden Of earn
nw iatcScS, would he considerably
cnhanrcL.' This statement presents
an excellent reason why cotton prices
which would once have been cu"Sldrr-
rL rather hiyn can llu luWgrr be lcrlu-
cd murh above low. Cotton lands.
moreover. have risen not only be
cause cotton itself waS higilrr but to
keep pace with a riSin% general price
level. lnrludcd in this higher level
are labor, farm supplies. and nearly
everything else for which the grower
must pay. The growing Of cotton
costs more in every way than hcrcl"-
fore, and the southern grower does
well wncn he seeks to govern his sell
ing accordingly. Charlotte Observer.
1t is Il fact that We sometimes over
look when talking about high priced
cotton that ii is not SO high after
all for the price Of everything else
has gone up even in greater proper
ton thaa cotton. Twelve and fifteen
cents, when the price Of other things
is considered is no more than seven
and eight cents when the price "f
rl"thihw and provisions is considered.
The farmer needs now more than
ever to grow OH the farm the things
needed for the farm. If he doe, sc"
when he comes to draw his halan"r
at the end Of the year he will find
himself III worse condition than when
cotton was much lower than il is
now.

the .,En m a NEW ROAD LAW.

The new road law which is half way
strument OF great utility in expert
hands but If it is used to reverse the
wheels of progress in a return to the
old loafing bee when farmers worked
out their road tax, it will prove a
wasteful extravaganza. and ought to be
nipped before 1t energies from the en-
crossing clerk
For instance: A road supervisor who
understood his business could use the
money tax for the purpose OF estab-
fishing grades building bridges and
laying tile with a gang Of experienced
men and teams and then sublet small
districts to neighboring farmers to be
worked under contract regularly with
the King drag Such a supervisor
could do ideal road work under the, new
law. However, let us never. return to
the old system OF trying to do all road
work when there il nothing else for
farmers to do. Let US remember that
the old gray mare trained in the corn
Twill persist in her objections to
travelling in a ditch with the single tree
higher than her head while the road
gangs mule team will never lose a
minutes time either worming thru a
culvert or walking the top strand of a
barbed wire fence. In this case as in
all other cases OF the past, the effect
iveness of road law will depend upon
the kind of a road supervisor who
hossas the work

4 lust REMINDER.

An English society paper has called
Eattention to q matter that should have
received sharp attention from the
proper parties without waiting to have
the duty pointed out by a foreign
journal. 1.-THE Throne" London's So
ciety paper few days ago referred di-
rectly to the fact that a secretary of
one of the most important embassies
of the United States to tho British gov
ernment had become involved in a
shameful scandal and called for his res
ignation or immediate removal. The
man referred to IL the secretary Of
whom Mrs. Thaw testified that it be-
came necessary to cable Stanford
White asking that he use influence to
see that this representative Of our gov
eminent should be warned to cease
forcing annoying and degrading atten-
tions upon her mother, Mrs. Nesbit.
The London paper says:
The association of the name of the
secretary of one of our most important
emba ssies with a great social scandal
can not be allowed to rest. Neither
the king of England nor the. head of
this mans country can allow such con-
duct to be tolerated, no matter how rich
and influential his mother may be.
That man acting in an official ca
pacity should so take advantage of his
position and go UNPUBLISHED is enough
to make every father, mother and hus-
band shudder. The great colony among
US, to whom this man belongs, knows
his name, and 1t is for him to recog-
nize his position and go home. If he
doesn't his ambassador must act, and
il the ambassador hesitates, his master
should withdraw him. 1t is idle to
suppose the matter will blow over.
The not unrecent revelations of con-
