School Book Imposition.

Unless the people of South Carolina
arise in their Indignation and put a
stop to the imposition, there will be
another wholesale change of school,
books five years from now.
That the people will not rise in their
indignation, however, it is reasonably
safe to predict, for they have been
submitting to the imposition for so
long that they have come to take it
as a matter of course, and they will
refrain from showing too much spirit
for fear of violating precedent.
Ask nine parents out Of ten why
these constant changes of school books
and they will probably suggest i'm
provement and progress as the reason.
This is not because they actually know,
but because they naturally assume
that the change is based upon some
practical, legitimate reason and they
think of nothing more satisfactory
than improvement and progress.
Ask the average school book pub
Usher or his selling agent why these
frequent changes are made and very
likely the answer will be something
like that already suggested, progress
and improvement; but slap these fell
lows on the shoulder, wink at them
knowingly, tell them you are not a
fool. and if you can get them off their
guard sufficiently to betray a little
cor.- delce, they will say that the prin-
cipal reason for the school book
changes is business-dOllars and cents.
When the people first began to
knock the public school system into
shape shortly after the war, the text
book question was a matter mainly
with patrons and teachers. Books were
scarce and hard to get and teachers
undertook to use whatever might be
available. This was bad of course, but
it could not be helped, as there was no
other way for it, Later as parents be-
came more able to buy books, they

THE CREAM ERY.

All that Is necessary to guarantee
the complete financial success of the
Yorkville creamery Is for those patrons
who are pledging to supply the milk Of
200 cows, and as much more as possi-
BILE, and do what they have promised.
It is calculated that the milk Of 200
average COWS will be ample to ensure
a profit; but 1t Is recognized that this
profit will be considerably greater II
a larger number of cows Is cecCred.,
1t is a fact that the product OF the
Yorkville creamery has already gained
a wide reputation throughout this
state and North Carolina. A thousand
pounds a week, Of course, Is mighty
small amount to spread over both
states, for the two states consume
hundreds Of thousands of pounds; but
still this butter has been widely dis
tributed and wherever 1t has gone,
there is a demand for more.
A dealer in Columbia takes 400
pounds weekly. and he Is constantly
writing for more, which he cannot get
at present because Of the demand. A
Lexington hotel man writes that the
local article; but his guests are con-
stantly praising the Yorkville butter
and he must supply them.
The only thing needed now, as al
ready suggested, is more milk. and II
this is forthcoming through the win
ter, by next spring those patrons who
have not already been convinced that
the creamery is a good thing, will be
adding on more cows and supplying
milk on a still larger scale.
Cotton seed meal and hulls are low
er this year than for several years
past and may be used at greater profit

BOYS, CORN CLUB.

Because of the long and almost un-
broken drought that prevailed through
out the growing season, 1t was gener-
ally recognized as far as six or eight
weeks back, that there was slight
chance for any Of the members or the
York county Boys Corn club to break
any records this year; but neverthe-
less some Of the results that have
been achieved are more or less sur
prising. At the awarding Of premiums

LIQUOR AT euTHRIEsvILLE.

Quite a number of people around
Guthriesville are very much disturb
ed over the alleged condition of the
liquor traffic at that place; but at the
same time there Is no question of the
fact that there Is a good deal OF con-
fict Of testimony as to what actual
conditions are.
In the last issue Of The Enquirer
was published a statement over the
signature Of a number Of citizens to
the effect that a responsible citizen
had stated publicly as fact that a
merchant of Guthriesville had sold
white man had hired a negro to sell
whisky at the school house on the oc-
casion Of the fiddlers' convention, and
the published statement concluded
with a demand for an investigation by
the grand jury.
AS to what the actual facts are The
Enquirer does not know; but from the
talk that has been going on, liquor Is
quite plentiful in the neighborhood
Large quantities are received by ex-
press, consigned to people living In
the immediate community and through
out a wide scope Of territory, extend
ing over into the ogden country and
as far south as the Chester line. Many
of the consignees are white and many
are colored. It is said that about 80
per cent of the liquor received through
the express office, comes through a
single Richmond. Va, liquor house.
That the grand jury will do its full
duty in the whole matter, there Is no
reason to doubt; but experience has
shown that very little can be done In
case Of this kind without the coop
Grafton of the people most directly
concerned. For instance. If the people
Of Guthriesville or any of them know
that the Illicit traffic Is going on, that
knowledge can be Of little effect unless
they come before the grand jury and
say so upon oath. And to convict. OF
course. is going to require direct proof,
a good deal more than Is necessary 10
hang a man. as much as 1t takes for
that, for when 1t comes to liquor pros
ecutions, only a small portion OF the
people are willing to do their dury.
The practice Is to compromise with
conscience some way or other and
give testimony with mental reserva-
tions.
Again there are people who will say
they want the liquor traffic broken up;
but they don't want to make any
hard feelings" If these people do not
know 1t, they should be told that this
position Is quite absurd. There Is no
such thing as being able to TESTIFY
against an Illicit liquor dealer without
incurring his Ill will, and 1t Is GER
tainly a most difficult matter to put
him out of business without testifying
against him.

TRAGEDY AT ROCK HILL.

A head-on collision between an au-
tomobile and a hack on the outskirts
of Rock Hill last Friday might, result
ed in the death of r. c. Hendricks, a
hackman. the breaking Of Miss Ora
Lemmonds collar bone, the spraining
of U. c.. Partlow's wrist, and the Sc
we're shaking up Of Rcddey Reid and
an old negro woman.
The automobile party consisted of
Messrs Roddey Reid and y. c.. Part
low, Misses Ora Lemmond and Mamie
Owens. They had been down the Sa-
luda road, and the collision occurred
just as they were getting back into
Rock Hill at about 1890 o'clock.
According to statements made 1t ap-
pears that the gas lamps OF the auto
mobile had practically burned out, and
the dimly burning oil lamps furnished
all the light that was available. The
machine was going at the rate of 20 or
25 miles an hour, and the collision
with the hack, which was going In the
opposite direction, was the first inti-
nation that the automobile party had
Of the danger.
Miss Lemmond and Mr.. Partlow
were thrown out of the automobile,
and Mr.. Reid and Miss Owen were left
In. Miss Lemmond was picked up un-
conscious and was hurried to the hos
pital. The old negro woman. In the
hack was so badly frightened as to be
unable to give any intelligent informa-
ton and it was not until a half hour
or such a matter afterward that 1t was
learned that Mr.. Hendricks had been
fatally injured. He was still alive
when picked up, but died shortly after
his arrival at the hospital.

WITHIN THE TOWN.

- The cold snap of this morning has
served as reminder that the time of
holding the annual flower show Is at
hand. The show will be held next
week, and announcement of the time
and place will be made later.
IF the Yorkville people will do all
they can to help the creamery along
and make it a success, they will find
that the enterprise will be worth more
to this community than any other sim
gle concern.
One of the several things as to
which Yorkville excels all other
towns in the state Is the Shandon no.
tel. No other town has a Shandon
and no other town has a Mr. and Mrs.
Sadler to run its hotel in the superior
manner in which the Shandon Is run.
The secretary of state has COM
missioned the Smoak- Brown company
of Yorkville, to deal in livestock,
grain, ETC., vehicles. The capital stock
is to be $4,000. The petitioners are C.
F. Smoak of Branchville, and H. G.
Brown of Yorkville.
1t is nothing more than just to say
that the Bratton farm leads this Sec
ton in the quality and purity Of stock
breeds. Dr. Bratton has devoted much
intelligent attention to the whole sub
ject and has spent a lot of money,
which has not been without result.

Moving Picture Show Manager Stands
BY What He Considers His Rights.

Durham, N. c., Oct. 23.-The Binford
picture muddle assumed ominous pro-
portions tonight, when Manager Will
kerson locked his operating doors,
warned officers not to enter 1t and
threatened to shoot Sergeant Pender-

Manager Wilkerson mounted the

cheered.
He had previously required officers
