at the time he was writing it. The let
ter is dated Trudeau, New York, March
y, and reads as follows: Il wish to have

plans are if he has any. he has not
seen proper to state, but if he would do
what the most people who know him
want him to do. he will come right back
to YOrkville as soon as he can. If he is
at all doubtful about the correctness of
this assertion, it is safe to say that it
can be backed up by not less than 800
signatures.

OVER IN ROCK HILL.

A representative of The Enquirer
spent several hours in Rock Hill last
Saturday and during his stay accepted
an invitation for a drive with Mr.. j.
Edgar Poag, the man who cuts earth
to suit your taste"
Il amt going to try to sell you moth
ing buddy" said Mr.. Poag, because l
have done found out that there amt
much use fooling with you; but if you
will just go along with me and don't
get an idea or two for The Enquirer,
then you can charge up your wasted
time to Poagy, old boy.
There amt nothing sensational go
ing on maybe; but if you have an idea
that Rock Hill is asleep, all l ask is
that you keep your eyes open and note
all the building operations that are go
ing on. Maybe there amt as much do
ing right now as you have seen in 9TH
er times: but still the old place is mov-
ing right along with everybody on the
lookout for everything that is a coming
or Il going"
Heading his horse up in the direction
of the college and past Winthrop, Mr..
Poag first pulled up at Mr.. j. NJ. Cher
rvs big cattle barn on the northwest
ern outskirts Of the town. This barn
is located in the middle Of an acre lot
about fifty yards off the main road to
the river. 1t is neatly whitewashed and
all the surroundings are of clean ap-
pearance The building is a twO-story
affair, about 125 feet long by 80 feet
wide. There is a plank passageway
running through the middle from end
to end. and on either side Of it a feed
trough extending its full length. The
passage way on either side is studded
with uprights from % to 3 feet apart
and reaching from floor to ceiling.
Looking down the passage way the
view presents two long rows Of heads
of dehorned steers, eating stOver, cot
ton seed hulls and cotton seed meal
from the troughs. AS originally built
the trOughS were constructed at a
height that enabled the steers to eat
comfortably from them while standing
on the ground. Now. however, by rea-
son Of the accumulation of manure.
most of the steers have to get down on
their knees to reach the troughS. In
reply to question, Mr.. POag estimated
that there were in the neighbOrhOOd of
500 loads Of manure in the building.
worth 50 load. Put it may be more
than that buddy. | don't know" he
added.
Mr. Poag went on to explain that
Mr.. Cherry had bought his cattle last
fall principally in the mountains of
North Carolina and had been feeding
them about four months. The cattle
cost originally from 81 to cents
pound. delivered at the barn. At the
time Of their receipt by Mr. Cherry
they weighed from $50 to 500 pounds
each and now they average from 900 to
200. Most of them weigh about 1000
pounds. Within another month they
will all be good fat, and they will sell
for about cents pound on foot.
As is pretty generally known, sever
al Rock Hill gentlemen embarked in
the cattle feeding experiment three or

THE editor Of the News and Courier
who. by the way. is about as able Il
lawyer as there is in the state, has this
20 say of the supreme court decision on
the dispensary case.
1.-The supreme court Of South Car
olina has pronounced judgment in
the state dspensary case. The deci-
sion was written by Justice Woods. IT
is admirably done. altogether judicial
in temper and as clear as bell. The
contention of the attorney general of
the state is fully sustained and the
jurisdiction of the United States cir
cult court denied. The decision rests
not only upon the reserved rights OF
the state, but upon the decisions of
the United States supreme court in
other contentious of like character.
and we do not see how that tribunal
can determine adversely to the inter-
ests of the state without completely
reversing its own judgments.

Simmons suggested that the amount
of compensation for mail transporta-
ton in the foreign service in any one
year should be limited to the estimat-
ed revenues of the government for
that particular service and Mr.. Gal
