THE STATE WAREHOUSE ACT
What Some Of tho Papers Are Saying
About This Measure.
(Chester Reporter. ]

We invite the attention Of our read
ers to the editorial from The Yorkville
Enquirer in regard to the state ware
house system, an editorial which is
reproduced elsewhere in today's Re-
porter. Editor Grist has made care
full study of this question, and he sees
in 1t vast possibilities IL the general
assembly, taking advantage Of the
various safeguards that are thrown
around the system, places the right
kind of men in charge. The Enquirer
regards the adoption Of this bill as the
forerunner Of much for the better
ment and prosperity Of the south, II
the other states, following South Car
olina's lead will pass similar bill so
that the cotton producing states Of the
country may be in position to make
common cause against predatory in
terests that NAV have for their pur-
pose the decentralization Of cotton
prices. The Enquirer Is inclined to
believe that the brilliant McLaurin Is
helping to devise and secure the pas
sage Of this bill, and has shown him
self to be a man Of wonderful re-
sources, not merely dreamer with
theories as to government and affairs,
but a man fitted to wrestle with all
practical questions and aid his people
in solving them-an opinion in which
we share. We believe The Enquirer's
attitude on this question Is well taken.
The state has gone on record as favor
ing the establishment Of a system to
control the price Of cotton, and It is
all-important that every means at
command be used to secure the sue
cess of the system. The bill passed
the general assembly by a safe major
ity, but to insure success the legisla-
ture should not lose sight Of the fact
that the right kind Of men must be
at the head Of the system. Merely to
pass the bill and quit at that is to
invite failure

SENATOR VEST ON THE DOG.
The Famous Senator'S Tribute to the
Faithful Animal.

One Of the most eloquent tributes
ever paid to the dog was delivered by
Senator Vest of Missouri, some years
ago. He was attending court in a
country town, and while waiting for
the trial Of a case in which he was
interested he was urged by the attor-
neys in q dog case to help them. He
was paid fee Of $25 by the plaintiff.
Voluminous evidence was introduced
to show that the defendant had shot
the dog in malice, while other evidence
went to show that the dog had attack
ed the defendant. Vest took no part
in the trial, and was not disposed to
speak. The attorneys, however, urged
him to make speech, else their cli-
ent would think he had not earned his
fee. Being thus urged, he arose, scan
ned the face of each juryman for
moment, and said:
Gentlemen of the jury: The best
friend a man has in the world may
turn against him and become his en-
emy. His son or daughter that he has
reared with loving care may prove url-
grateful. Those who are nearest and
dearest to us, those whom we trust
with our happiness and our good name,
may become traitors to their faith.
The money that man has he may
lose. 1t flies away from him, perhaps
when he needs it most. A mans rep
utation may be sacrificed in moment
Of i'll considered action. The people
who are prone to fall on their knees
to do us honor when success Is with
us may be the first to throw the stone
of malice when failure settles its
cloud upon our heads. The one abso-
lutely unselfish friend that a man can
have in this selfish world, the one that
never deserts him, the one that never
proves ungrateful or treacherous, Is
his dog. A mans dog stands by him
in prosperity and poverty, in health
and sickness. He will sleep on the
cold ground, where the wintry winds
blow and the snow drives fiercely, II
only he may be near his masters side.
He will kiss the hand that has no food
to offer. He will lick the wounds and
sores that come in encounter with the
roughness Of the world. He guards the
sleep Of his pauper master as If he
were a prince. When all other friends
desert he remains. When riches take
wings and reputation falls to pieces
he is as constant in his love as the sun
in it's Journeys through the heavens.
If fortune drives the master forth an
outcast In the world, friendless and
homeless, the faithful dog asks no
higher privilege than that Of accom-
panying him, to guard against dan
ger, to fight against his enemies. And
when the last scene Of all comes, and
death takes the master in its embrace,
and his body Is laid away in the cold
ground, no matter If all other friends
pursue their way, there by the grave
side will the noble dog be found, his
head between his paws, his eyes sad,
but open in alert watchfulness, faith
full and true even in death.

A Bad Bill.

(Newberry Herald and News.
We cannot help the conclusion that
the state warehouse bill. which has
Just been passed by the legislature Is
one of the most dangerous pieces of
legislation since the enactment Of the
old dispensary law. 1t was really some
excuse for the state going into the
liquor business on the ground Of po-
lice regulations, but we can not see
any good reason for the state going
into the warehouse business. We say
this as a friend to the farmer, and IL
we were convinced that 1t would be
of any great benefit to the farmer, we
would be willing to stretch the consti-
tuition and the basic principle upon
which the government is founded and
favor the enactment Of this bill.
The legislature, even though the bill
Is passed, entertains doubt of its
wisdom in the section which provides
that the constitutionality Of 1t shall be
tested in the courts before the appro-
priation under 1t becomes available. 1t
creates additional officers and officials
and provides for their compensation,
and directs them to borrow money and
issue bonds and go in business, and
then also says that the state shall not
become liable or responsible for any
debt or contract which the commission
may make. We really and honestly
cannot see any need Of such legisla-
ton. Under the bill the commission
ers are authorized to erect congresses.
They ought to be authorized to erect
gins and oil mills and fertilizer factor
les. and let the state do the whole
thing.
The principle Of the bill is wrong
and we do not believe 1t will be Of any
benefit to the farmers Of the state. OF
course, 1t will give few jobs to some
people, but there are plenty Of jobs.
If we were governor we would give
Mr.. McLaurin the opportunity Of en-
tering the race on that issue by
promptly vetoing the bill. We say
this as a good friend to the farmers.

THE CREAMERY STATUS.
Much Interest Being Taken All Over
the State.

the State.
The progress of the creamery indus
try in North Carolina has been mar
velous. Three years ago there was
practically no attention being given to
intensive dairying In the state. Now
there are many successful cooperative
creameries in operation and others are
getting under headway almost every
month.
Mooresboro creamery. the first suc-
cessful co-operative plan in the state.
was put in actual operation on Decem-
ber Z, 1909. The capital Of this enter
prise is $4,000 and It has actually paid
out in dividends to its stockholders
over 500, besides having had a month
ly payroll of $1,000 to its patrons for
butter fat each month that It has been
In operation. Besides, the people gen.
orally have been educated along dairy
lines and the soil improved by the
farmers who have taken advantage
Of the 30 cents per pound for their but
ter-fat.
Following right on the heels OF this
undertaking came CatawDa creamery
and 1t has made signal success, pay
ing out probably more money than
Mooresboro, this section being much
further advanced in its holding OF
cows. This plant has branched out
and has been handling eggs along CO.
operative lines and the farmers seem
to be pleased with the arrangement
Next comes the Stanley creamery,
which broke the record In cooperative
undertakings by paying to Its patrons
several months the price OF S5 cents
per pound for butter fat.
The phenomenal success Of these
enterprises has been due, most likely.
to the able management Of Prof. j.
B. Blanton at Mooresboro. Mr.. ]. Watt
Shuford at Hickory, and Mr.. o. B.
Carpenter of Stanley Creek. Next
comes Yorkyille, 8. c., pushing of
proposition of the same kind success
fully, and then making herself very
prominent by the unique idea of hold
ing a cow show and butter-scoring
contest pure and simply, making
huge success of Il, handling the propo-
sition in a way that would have been
creditable to any northwestern state.
Mr.. Curtis Bynum of Fletchers has
an individual creamery that is doing
well. 40 much 40. that at the first OF
this wear the farmers near him have
fallen in line by establishing milk
routes and cooperating with him by
patronizing his plant, and reaping
some of the good money which 1t Is

WINDOWS IN llANlLA.
Translucent oheils An Used IN Place
Of Ordinary Glass.

Translucent shsi's Az Used In Place
Of Ordinary Glass.
Perhaps in NO other country but the
Philippines are conchas used a. sub
stitute for window glass. These shells
are dat. nearly round. and average four
inches in diameter. The edges are TRIM
med or SO as to leave panes about
three inches square. and these are set
IN narrow strips of wood.
The shells are. Of course. translucent
rather than transparent. and the result
10 soft, Opalescent light, very agree
able in a country where the glare of
the sky would be intolerable If ordi-
nary glass were used.
To obtain the maximum window
openings the sashes are made to slide
horizontally on wide stills Of hard wood
In a manner similar to that adopted by
the japanese. BY this means openings
As wide as twelve feet are obtained.
To realize the splendid resources Of
the Philippines, says a writer in the
Century. one has only to see the hard
wood hoorings in the public buildings
and the residences Of the better class.
These consist Of large slabs Of mahog-
any. or, to use the local names, mo-
lave, nara, tindalo and acle. these be.
ing Of various colors and granting.
Frequently the pieces. occasionally as
much as forty inches in width and for
ty feet in length, are laid alternately in
dark and light shades. Polished by the
household muchachos Chouse boys till
they reflect like mirrors, they produce
a magnificent effect.

TASTED THIRTY DAYS
Octogenarian Is Dead from
Effects of Abstinence.

WABASH, Ind, March 27.-Caleb
Story, so years old. is dead at his
home in this city, following an absti-
nance OF 30 days, during which time he
did not swallow a mouthful OF food.
The only substance which passed be-
tween his lips was water. Each day he
drank a small quantity. and on this
alone he subsisted. Mr.. Story suddenly
lost his appetite last month and never
food. Other than a weakness from lack
of nourishment he was in his usual
health prior to his death.
