SENATOR SMITH TALKS
OF ATTACK ON BULLS.

cution as UnWarranted Interior.
ence With Private Business.

Washington, June Ex-senator Car
ter's ambition to obtain a vote in the
senate today on his motion to concur
in the house amendments to the. pos
tai savings bank bill failed to reali-
cation due to the difficulty of keeping
senators in the chamber on account OF
the excessive heat. The bill was IN
der discussion for a little more than
two hours and then went over until
Monday when it is hoped a vote will
be reached.
Senator Carriers concurrence mo-
ton was discussed by it's author and
by Senator Smith of South Carolina,
who antagonized the motion. Mr.
Carter made an argument in support
of the house bill as in the interest OF
expediency and progress.
In connection with his speech MIR,
Smith discussed the indictment In
New York of a number of cotton brok-
ers on a charge of entering into a
conspiracy to raise the price of cotton.
Finding in the house postal bill pro-
vision for the establishment Of a gov
eminent banking system, he charged
that the government "a preparing to
enter upon a general system of inter-
fering with private business.
The New York indictments were a
specimen of such interference he
said.
Referring to the charge that the
brokers had cornered the visible sup
ply Of cotton, the South Carolina SEN
tor vehemently declared that never
was a more bare-faced falsehood or
a greater fraud perpetrated than in
this Indictment"
He repeated his previous charges
that the law had been invokeG to
put down the price of cotton in the
interest of foreign spectators and
said he had been informed that the at
torney general had been at n time
a partner of the attorney for the cot
ton exchange.

To Protect. Cotton. aa
"In an effort to avoid repetition
of the bear onslaught and a further
depression of values in both cotton
and cotton goods, some of the most
progressive, and at the same time,
most conservative manufacturers OF
the South, agreed in the event OF a
similar raid, to purchase a consider
BILE block of spot cotton on the New
York exchange, to demand actual de-
livery Of the cotton, and to ship it
South for manufacturing purposes,
The seasons needs Of the Saxon mills
not having been fully supplied, a por-
ton Of the remainder was thus pur-
chased and it's delivery demanded. An
examination by the. government Of the
recent education in the New York
certified stock, as well as an investi-
cation of the steamship movements
on actual cotton to Southern cotton
mills, will afford sufficient refutation
of the statement that the cotton is
now being taken for actual use. It is
perhaps true that the effect OF the
transaction upon the dry goods mar
ket has been greatly minimized by the
inexplicable attitude of the govern
ment in joining in the hue and cry
of conspiracy instead Of melting prop
er punishment to those guilty OF en-
deavoring to depress a great agricul-
tural product by selling that which
they did not possess. The honorable
department of justice is, in our judy
ment, simply barking up the wrong
tree"

THE CASE OF w. 7. JONES.
Arguments on Convicted Union Farm
ers Motion for New Trial Made

The State.
Union, June 1S4-The reading of
the affidavits in the motion for a new
trial in the case Of W. T. Jones was
completed late yesterday afternoon

heard by Judge Gruber. The opening
speech was made by John K. Ham
bin, representing the defense, who
was followed by J. A. Sawyer and P.
D. Barron for the State, after which
Ben F. Townsend, representing the
defense, spoke. He was followed by F.
B. Grier of Greenwood, Solicitor Otis
for the State, they being followed by
Col. George tombstone, of Newberry,
Jones' leading attorney. The argu-
ments were all listened to by an I'M
usually large crowd in the court
house and an exceedingly strong plea
was made by the defense for a new
trial.
Judge Gruber, who now has the
motion for a new trial under consid-
Grafton, announced that he would rem
der his decision next week, and he in
structed the sheriff not to adjourn
court sine die until further orders
from him. The motion for a new trial
in this case has been a hard fought
legal battle and the decision of Judge
Gruber is awaited with interest.
Civil court will nve here Mon
day morning. with Judge Gruber pre-
siding. -.

WHO is TO BLAME?
For the Read ConditiOn?-Have the
Roads Been Ordered Worked as
Law Requires?
Editor Herald and News:

Editor Herald and News:
In the report of the grand jury
to the court of sessions occurs these
words: cit is impossible for the sup
ervisor and the chain gang to work
the roads of the county section by
section," etc. Then: 1--WE urge upon
the people, especially the country
people, that they take greater pride
in their roads," etc.
Now, what is the law in reference
to road working? The law puts the
working of the reads in charge of the
supervisor. The supervisor shall ap-
point the time of working the roads
and the number of days at each work
ing. I have heard the supervisor
grumbling that the people will not
work the roads, but I have seen no
order from the supervisor to work
the roads this year, and six months
of the year are nearly gone. 1 do not
believe az overseer can, under the
law. rake. : man work the roads I'M
less the supervisor has ordered the
working, except under some great
emergency. Last year a great many
of the overseers failed to put in the
full time as required by law. This the
supervisor and county commissioners
know themselves. Did they try to
enforce the law? I have been in
formed that the commissioners had
the matter under Amusement and de-
cided not to prosecute the offenders,
preferring to violate the statutes
themselves.
I worked the roads six days last
year on my section: Other overseers
worked from one to three days. IS it
Just to the hands on my section to
let the others go free? If the super
visor had ordered two or three days
work on the roads in March and had
| seen that the order was enforced, our
| roads now would have been in fine
| condition. But what is the present
status of the roads? The holes made BY
the wet spell Of February are still on
hand. I know the farmers can't stop
now, but I want the blame of the
condition of the roads to rest where
it belongs. I am satisfied that sew
eral sections Of roads in the county
have no overseers.
If the supervisor knows that an
overseer has not done his duty, does
he have to wait until some man shall
come forward and report the over
seer or is it his duty to enforce the
laws?
Let the honorable grand jury read
the law and they will see where the
blame rests. OVerseer.

TALKS OF PROSECUTION.
John A. Law, Of Spartanburg, Gives
Mill Mems Side of Govern
ment Raid.

The State.
Spartanburg, June 18.-When~ ask
Cd TODAY as to the government indict-
ment of the cotton bull operators,
with which the name Of the Saxon
mills was connected in yesterdays
Associated Press dispatches, Jno. A.
Law, president and treasurer OF the
Saxon mills, made the following
statement:
1--WE have no apologies to make to
the New York grand jury, nor to At
torney General Wickersham, mol to
the Republican administration, which
he represents, for such part as we
have taken in the alleged conspiracy
which in spite of the governments
misdirected opposition has interfered
and is still interfering with the ef-
forts to depress the price of cotton.
Though being a manufacturer OF
cotton, a buyer and not a producer or
seller, we have never felt that the
natural and legitimate source Of man
u~facturing profit consisted in buying
the raw product below it's intrinsic
value, based upon the cost Of making
the crop or upon the seasons scarcity
or abundance.
The Mills Duty.
1.-THE more fruitful field Of effort for
the manufacturer should, as We vie"
it, lie along the line of economies in
actual manufacturing and in endeaV-
oring to obtain by opening new mar
kets or making goods of special char
acter a legitimate profit for the man
ufactured article over and above the
price of cotton. As citizens OF the
South, We recognize to a profound ex-
tent that her financial recovery, the
education Of her citizens and the
proper development of her natural re-
sources are peculiarly dependent up
on the obtaining of a fair price for
cotton, representing not only the
South's but the nations greatest ex-
port value.
"We have deeply deplored the ap-
parent tendency of the cotton manu-
featuring business to become, not a
business of small economies, but a
hit or miss affair, dependent upon
favorable purchases of cotton during
suddenly manipulated ~depressions
and sales of goods prior to the de-
imoralized Incidents to such depres-
sion. The dry goods market has not

to have made complete confession OF
