CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Held an Interesting Meeting on Last
Tuesday Evening.

The Orangeburg chamber of COM
merce held an interesting and enthus-
astc meeting Tuesday night. Many
important matters were brought be-
fore the chamber. The matter OF the
Pregnalls branch Of the Atlantic
Coast Line was brought up. The
schedule on this branch is not what
Orangeburg wants, and the matter
will be taken up with the Atlantic
Coast Line and the railway commits
sion.
The Southern Bell Telephone COM
pany's local exchange was discussed,
and it was contended that the equip
ment provided here is not what
Orangeburg should nave. The mag
neto system is used here, and the
people want the common battery
system. A letter in reference to the
building of an electric street railway
in the city of Orangeburg was read
by President Cart, the letter having
been sent here frcm town IN the
northern part of the State, where a
street railway is now being construct
ed. The matter was discussed, and
results are expected.
The reorganizirg OF the Edlsto
Rifles, former military company,
was discussed, and Adjutant General
w. w. Moore will be asked to mus
ter this company back into service.
The next meeting Of the chamber OF
commerce will be an important one,
after which big banquet will be
given.

 The late pr. Dawson Burns, in his an- nual analysis of the national drink bill for 19OS estimated that Irelands share was $67, 0,000.

Ever since he began to make money on a large scale, which was within five yeafs after his arrival in New York and his purchase of the New York World from Jay Gould, he steadily invested his surplus in railroad stocks. Many of his investments were made when the stocks could be bought at low figures. Some of his earlier investments, notably those in Lake Shore. Delaware, Lacka- wanna and Western, Jersey Central, Le- high Valley, and Reading increased 100 per cent to 300 per cent.

many English or American counties could show such a record.
 An extraordinary example of the ignor- ance which characterizes the utrerances of the more blatant of the Ulster union- ists was recently given in a speech of Mr. William Moore, member of parlia- ment. At the meeting at Craigvad to re- ceive Sir Edward Carson he said that the English government had never had to face protestant rebellion in Ireland. Of course, any one with a smattering of knowledge of Irish history knows lhat the Society of United Irishmen was formed in Belfast, and that the rebellion of 9s originated with them. Moreover, two of the fiercest battles of that rebel lion were fought in Ulster. One LOOK rlace within a few miles of the spot where Mir. Moore was speal<ing-Ballina- ainch, Sounty Down. The other was at Antrim. These are the centers of the two most protestant districts in Ireland, and probably at least 9 per cent of the rebels who took part in them were protestan1s.
 It may be of interest in this connec- ton to recall Nthe fact that the grand uncle of MT. Mckinley, not long ago President of the United States, was 'anged as rebel at the rebellion If 'aS at Ballymoney. not many miles from MT. Moore's home. MT. McKinley's grand
