Correspondence Of the Yorkvile Enquirer.
Ogden. August 17.-"Lay-by time
is nearly over in this section and the
farmers. who have been enjoying d
short rest, will soon be very busy
again. Some have already commenced
to pull fodder and if cotton continues
to open as it has done for the past
week. picking will begin within anOth-
er week and some of the new crop"
will soon be ready for the market. The
cotton crop in this section will easily
be as good as last years crop. We al
ways make enough 'tO do and this
year will be no exception to the rule.
While the corn crop will not be as
good on an average as ii was last year
and very few farmers will have any
corn to sell, it is not likely that any
of them will have to buy any, provided
weather conditions are favorable un-
til the crop is made. There is an
abundance of peavine hay to harvest
in this section and it will be ready to
cut i'm. few more weeks. If this
crop is all saved there will be no
scarcity Of this kind Of feed next win

load after load of rock to fix the roads
going by his house. He again recited
the circumstances under which he had
voted for the Saye law; but did not
again say that his reason was to keep
down unpleasantness in the delegation.
He had told Dr. Saye the conditions
under which he would vote for the
law, and now although lawyers disa-
gree, it is beginning to look ike ne
did not get what he had calculated on.
He declared that he was in no COM
bine to bring the dispensary back into
York county and he regretted the at
tempt to inject the whisky question in
to this campaign. He had told the
people four years ago that he was in
favor of the dispensary purified, and
failing to get that he had voted for
prohibition as the next best thing He
said that he did not go to Columbia
for the purpose Of debating to the
people: but to be dictated to by them,
and to show that he was in good
humor he told the joke about the fell
low who not having the fifteen cents
with which to pay his ferriage was
told by the ferryman that man with
out fifteen cents in his pocket was just
as well on one side Of the river as on
the other.
1t was now a little after l o'clock.
Chairman Cherry desired to continue
the speaking until and adjourn until
3; but because so many people were
leaving the hall at this stage, he acted
upon a suggestion to take a recess un-
til 8 o'clock.
The Catawba candidates entertained
the candidates from the other town
ships at dinner.
In the afternoon a small fraction Of
bn ornHuI rn q ScaOnhlp6 in the
hall to hear the remaining candidates,
Messrs, Glasscock, Johnson, Hollis,
Hurt and Sanders who made about
the same speeches that they have been
making elsewhere. Mr.. Hurt, however,
made quite a hit and got considerable
applause with a pun and JOKE ap-
plicable to the good roads discussion.
He said that he was in favor OF good
roads: but already there was a Saye
law, a Stewart law and Wilson law,
and he would refrain from proposing a
Hurt" law for fear that would ruin
the whole business. He then went on
to tell about the case of the Irishman
who had taken his wife to hospital.
When he inquired next day, the doctor
said she was improving. On the occa-
sion of the next two inquiries, she was
still improving. but on inquiring an
other time the doctor told him that his
wife was dead. Asked by an acquaint-
ance shortly afterward what was the
matter with his wife, he said too
much Improvement" He thought the
Saye law a splendid step in the right
direction; but he certainly hoped that
it would not be killed by too much i'm
provement.
The meeting adjourned shortly be-
fore the leaving of the northbound
train, and all the candidates went
home in a good humor.

- Columbia, August Is: The state
government will next month negotiate
a loan of 100000 for the purpose OF
running the government for the rest
of the year. This will bring the float
ing debt of the state up to the consti-
tutional limit of 100000, which will
make the annual interest charge about
$4,000, the previous loans having
been negotiated at four and four and
one-half per cent. On account of the
fact that taxes are collected at the
end of the year, it is always necessary
to borrow money to carry on the reg
ular expenses of the government and
it is a question whether it would be
wise or not to put the state on a cash
basis, for were the state on cash
basis the general assembly might be
tempted to spend even more money
than it does spend.
