Great Publicity Day, Bargain d,

Great Publicity Day, Bargain Day.
1t is the plan Of Secretary Smell to
make Bargain Day, Thursday, No
vember 23rd a publicity day for Sum-
ter. The Chamber Of Commerce is
planning to issue some 5000 Sumter
postal cards to boost the city These
cards will be very neat In design with
map Of the State on one side and
showing Sumter as "the center" OF
railroads and distribution for this
territory. Space will be left for a
personal note thereon. These cards
will be distributed free to everyone
and will be placed in the various
stores. 1t Is requested that every
man, woman and child in Sumter
mail at least one Of these cards to
some friend outside the city, inviting
them to come TO Sumter to make q
visit or to make Sumter their perma-
nent home. The newspapers are also
arranging to get out special editions
which may be sent to outside friends.
Do not fail to help advertise Sumter
by sending out at least one postal
card on this day. Still better. write
your friends what Sumter Is doing
and invite them to make this city
their home.

The cold on the fair grounds Thurs
day afternoon was something pretty
serious for some Of the Sumter peo-
pie who had gone over wearing sum-
mer clothing and without overcoats.
There were quite a number Of per-
SONS going about on the grounds who
complained Of the cold.
One Of the chief attractions adver-
tised for the fair did not come off
and many people from Sumter, as
we'll as those from all over the State,
were very much disappointed at not
seeing the aerOplane in flight 1t
seems that after flights were adver-
tised the public should at least have
been given the chance Of seeing the
machine, especially as the flights were
not to take place.
County Treasurer B. G. Wallace
sent his first batch of taxes over to
the State Treasurer at Columbia on
Wednesday, November 1st. The
amount sent to the State Treasurer
was $791.66. Taxes are still coming
in slowly, although they are ahead of
last years collections.
Mr.. w. B. Boyle of this city was
one of the unfortunate ones who
suffered at the State Fair from the
depredations Of pickpockets. He was
relieved Of considerable amount
of money while on the fair grounds

FRAnCO-GERMAN TREATY,
THE MOROCCAN DISPUTE FINAL.
LY SETTLED.
France Retains Paramount influence
in Morocco But Germany Obtains
Certain Concessions and Also Ac.
quires Small Piece of French Ter
ritOry on Congo.

Berlin, Nov. i.-In making public
| tonight a complete summary Of the
treaty concluding the Moroccan dis
pute, arranged by the foreign secre-
, tary, Herr Won Kiderlen- Wa chter,
and the French ambassador, NJ. Vam-
bon, the foreign office issued the fol-
lowing statement:
"The German government believes
| that both parties can be in accord
over the contents Of the new treaty
1t will have calming effect not only
! upon conditions between Germany
and France, but also on the general
political situation.
Germany stands at the conclusion
Of this treaty in the same position as
to French understanding in Morocco
as does England. 1t is especially en-
phasized that England has no inter-
est in the negotiations"
The statement then summarizes the
treaty, the text Of which will be sign
ed Monday morning at Berlin and
Paris.
With the news Of the conclusion of
the controversy comes the announce
ment that Emperor William has ac-
cepted the resignation Of DR.. Won Lin
| dequist. secretary Of state for colo
nies. This resignation is as signifi-
| cant a sample Of the unpopularity Of
the bargain within as well as outside
the government.
The definition Of Frances predom-
inant position in Morocco occupies
three Of the IA articles Of the treaty
The next nine contain long series Of
guarantees and precautions to secure
citizens Of all countries equal COM
mercial and economic opportunities in
the country under French domination
and close all imaginable openings for
favoritism.
France. obligates itself to see that
the various directors of the Moroccan
National bank, which Is an irterna-
tional institution, represent the bank
on the permanent customs commits
sion, changing yearly, so that other
powers may get an insight into Nor
| roccan custom affairs. The receivers
Of the bank will interchange similarly
in, fhn hn1
board.
France undertakes to have the Mo-
roccan government permit foreign
owners Of mining and farming lands
and Of manufacturing establishments
| without respect to their nationality to
build railways, connecting their con-
Germs with State roads or seaports.
A yearly report Of the States re-
sponsibilities must be issued.
Troubles between foreign citizens
are to be adjudicated by a board Of
! arbitration consisting of members
from the countries involved. When
they are unable to agree they shall
appeal to the French consul who will
Cooperate with them in naming a
| board Of arbitration. This process
also will apply to grievances against
the State and the French.
In the Congo concessions are more
limited than were expected. Germany
will get only from four to seven miles
Of the Congo river sufficient to estab-
lish steamer trading station, and
cedes a small triangle between the
Logone and Shari rivers south of
Lake Tchad. TOgoland is not mer-
toned in the treaty.

house, who thought small warehouses;
would never pay, Mr.. Keller declared
that the small warehouses did pav
and paid handsomely. That the idea
OF the Farmers Union was to build
warehouses at every point in the
state, where as much as 5000 bales
could be gotten together, no matter
WI efher it was a one railroad town
or not. He stated that the small far
mers had no confidence in standard
warehouses in Columbia, Charleston
or other big points, but that they
wanted their cotton in warehouses ar
their home markets, where they could
see 1t with their own eyes when they.
wanted to. Finance your crop WITH
local capital and if necessary organize
farmers union banks to do it, he said.
Mr.. Keller said that the plan OF get
ting contracts for either holding or
reducing acreage signed by farmers
as provided in the Stackhouse scheme.
| was impracticable and would neve><
work. He made a vigorous speech.
In FAVOR OF the Farmers Union and
urged that it be composed of farmers
| alone.
Mr.. II. T. Morrison, Of Mcclellan
vile, chairman Of the warehouse
committee OF the Farmers Union. tsk
lowed in talk telling Of the plan of
building warehouses all over the
State as adopted by the Union at it's
July meeting and as told by Mr.. KeI-
ler Mr.. Morrison said that fipalIy II
was planned to merge all the wara-
houses and have them work togethe,l
through a central organization. He
aruged. however, that the only prac-
ticable method was the one the Farm
ers' Union had adopted, of building
warehouses at every avilable point
in the State. He said the Farmers
warehouse Company had been OF
ganized and obtained a charter. WIN
capital Of 100000; that some
stock had already been subscribed
and that the company was assisting
In building warehouses in several
counties at present.
Col. Robert Mixson, Of Willistoa
thought much time had been wasted
and that what was needed was some
remedy for the present. Retire
every bale off the mark.;, that is
what is needed, and how to do that
is what we want to know" he stated.
Senator E. d. Smith. stating that ~
would feel out Of place in a cotton
meeting without having something to
say, told OF the history of former
fights for higher prices for cotton in
past years and urged the farmers not
to weaken, but to stand by the ac-
tions already taken and to demand
the price which had been fixed hks
this crop. He made a great cott IN
speech and was loudly applauded

SOCIETY IN WASHINGTON
sr CONSTANCE CARRurHERs

Washington, November 25.-(Special.) Practically the entire congressional of ficial and diplomatic sets are now at home and the society pot has begun to boil.
 The first business in hand is. of course. the presenting to society of the charming young ladies who are to take this first dip in the social sea and upon whom much of the enjoy ment of the season will depend. And be it said Washington this season will have it's full share of buds and they are particularly interesting group even though the White House and cab inet are not represented.
 To make up for such there will be two in the supreme court circle and two in the diplomatic, if not more. The two in the former are equally distin- guished. Miss Letta Montgomery, niece of the late Chief Justice Fuller, White, and daughter of MT. Warwick Emile Montgomery. and Miss Aubrey, niece of the late Chief Justince Fuller, who will be presented later on this sea- son by her aunt, Mrs. Hugh Wallace
 The most important diplomatic bud is the daughter of the new Mexican Senorita Adela Crespo, who has just arrived with her mother and brothers and sisters from Paris She has been educated in Vienna for her general education and in Milan for her music. in which she is very proficient Music Is the great recreation of the am- family, each and every mem Der of which has been cultivated in the

LIKES PORTRAIT MONEY
A Bank Man Says It Is Not Often
 Successfully Counterfe,ted
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post
 'aIf the treasury department carries out what understand is contemplated. it will make the work of our bank cashiers a great deal more difficult" said H. A. Strothers, @ bank teller of Scranton, Penn. ''I refer to the proposition to, re- move from the bank notes and United States currency the portraits of Washing ton, Lincoln and Grant.
 "I do not know what arguments, other than economy, the government officials may have, but do know that bank clerks and other persons who handle large num- bers of notes in all the big cities depend more upon the portraits on notes for pro- tecting them from commercials than upon any other feature of the money. It is all most impossible to counterfeit success fully the portraits that appear on our paper money.
 'There never was in any country a bet ter example of printing from steel plates than the money in circulation in the United States Bankers of foreign coun- tries have told me this frequently, and I know from experience that the quality of our paper money is far superior to that of any other nation. I hope the siigges- tion that the portraits be omitted will not be carried out. Not only is it a protection against counterfeiting. but it affords an easy method of counting, for we have learned through much handling of money to know that certain portraits appear on certain bills, and can tell at glance what the value of note is.
 '"There is another thing about por- traits. They are much more difficult to print than other parts of the note. Take the revenue stamps, for instance. I am told they are printed on power presses, while the notes bearing portraits are from presses operated by hand. The por- traits on the former were so poor that the government recently odered that nu- morals be substituted for the portrait. This would eventually be the case with our paper money, I fear, if we were to seek a cheaper method of printing it than now is in use.''
The Birmingham age-herald., 1911-11-26

and daughter of Mrs. John N Speel, wife of Pay Director Speel of the navy; Miss Margaret StrotherSmith. daughter of Commander William StrotherS Smith, and some others yet to be announced.
 The resident circles have quite as in teresting group of buds which include Miss Eleanor Reyburn, daughter of the mayor of Philadelphia, who was for many years representative in Congress. and who has just returned to Washington with her mother; Miss Elizabeth Moves, second daughter of MT. Theodore w. Moves; Miss Elizabeth Munford. daugh- ter of Mr. Edwin s. Munford, formerly or Atlanta, Ga.; Miss Pauline Lockett, daughter of MT. J. w. Lockett: Miss Dorothy Brooks, Miss Esther Slater of Boston. who spends many of her win Iers in Washington; Miss Elizabeth Reid Rogers. daughter of MT. Richard Reid Rogers; Miss Estelle Crane, daughter of Mrs J. Barnet Crane; Miss Mary Gra- nam, daughter of MT. F. Worden Gra- ham; Miss Gillett-Hll of Illinois, re- cent resident of Washington; Miss Celes- tire Finley one of the large family of daughters of MT. and Mrs. w. w. Fin ley; Miss Edith Oracle, daughter of Col. Archibald Oracle, formerly of New York; Miss Louise Walsh. daughter of Mr. Charles Harper Walsh; Miss Mary Howry daughter of Judge Charles B. Howry of the district court, and still some others not entirely certain.
 Altogether, therefore, it may be fairly inferred that there will be no lack of activity on the part of the younger set.
 The marriage of Miss Gertrude Will Hams. the daughter of MT. Gardner F. Williams to Mr. Frederick DeCourcy Faust will take place Tuesday next at noon at the home of the bride on Sher dan Circle. Owing to deep mourning for the late Mrs. Williams, mother of the bride, there will be no attendants, and only small family party to witness the ceremony at which the Rev. Alfred Hard ing. Episcopal bishop of Washington. will officiate. The brde-to-be is the second of three daughters of MT. Gardner r. Williams of the De Beers Diamond com pany. who was one of the first of a group
