YorkviIIe vs.. Winnsboro.
News and Herald, Thursday: Friday
evening the high school team met the
Yorkville foot ball team on the college
campus for a game, which proved to be
the hardest fought game Of the season.
The visitors out-weighed the locals
fully twenty pounds to the man, which
counted very much at the end. The
home boys worked forward passes at
will as we'll as some several trick plays
which ran up the score Of IA to at the
end of the third quarter The visitors
then returned to the field and by con-
slant line plunging and swapping end
runs they succeeded in scoring two
more touchdowns after laying out
three Of the locals best players. This
put the score 10 to IA in favor of the
visitors. There remained only one and
half minutes to play. Winnsboro re-
ceived the kick off and carried the pig
skin within five yards Of the goal when
time was called. For Winnsboro: Hol-
laday, Williford and Brice played a
fine game while Thomas played fine
game for the visitors.

standpoint, however, we
are. inclined to think that there Is
much less in 1t than there would have
been fifteen or twenty years ago.
Thouehtful. conservative men should
be able to see that although the Demo-
Gratis have won, the Republicans are
not necessarily licked. The popular
vote is an infallible evidence Of that
The Democrats won only because the
Republicans are divided. II the Re-
publicans get together again, no mat
ter whether 1t be behind the Progress
sive or G. o. P. side Of the split, they
will continue to give a lot of trouble.
That Mr.. Wilson Is big enough to ham

himself and his party at the expense
of the opposition, we have no doubt
That is, provided he Is not hampered
in the house by his friends, by little fell
lows who assume that they are bigger
than he Is. But nothing Is going to be
gained by creating uneasiness among
and solidifying that great popular ma
jority.

BY an act Of the legislature, the third
Friday in November, which for this
year Is today, Is set apart as arbor day
and the free public schools Of this state
are required to observe 1t. "On that
day the school officers and teachers
shall conduct such exercises and en-
gage In the planting Of such shrubs,
plants and trees as will impress on the
minds of the pupils the proper value
and appreciation to be placed on flow-
ers, ornamental shrubbery and shade
trees"
In behalf Of the gentlemen who dis
charged the duty Of preparing for the
general election, appointing managers,
providing boxes, tickets, etc., giving
official notice. and afterward tabulat-.
ing the returns. 1t Is proper to say that
the duties of the election commission
er does not constitute an easy tasks
There Is considerable responsibility, i
lot OF hard work and practically mo
pay-only dollar a day and mileage
for the time actually employed. But
still all this work has to be done and
the men who do 1t are deserving Of
due credit.
While Tho Enquirer has no definite
information upon which to make an
estimate of the quantity of long staple
cotton that has been grown in this
county this year, it is quite sure of the
fact that the production is larger than
ever The first obstacle encountered by
the new industry was in the form Of
complaints from the spinning mills
that were working on ordinary short
staple. The few bales Of long staple
that came to market were taken by
buyers on the same basis that practi-
cally all cotton has been bought for
years, the basis of color, and was sold
to the mills on the same basis. When
such cotton got into the machinery
unnoticed, 1t soon made its presence
known by clogging things up. There
was an outcry against long staple cot.
ton; but the outcry did not amount to-
much. Later the producers of long
staple began to find places where they
could dispose Of their output at an ad-
vance over the short staple, and this
market has been widening steadily un-
til that advance now amounts to 6 or
cents pound. Most of the produc-
ers Of long staple cotton claim that
they get as many pounds per acre as
they do of the short staple varieties,
and such buyers generally are begin
ming to pull the staple" and take more
careful account of actual values, the
probability Is that in a short time long
staple cotton can be sold to as good ad-
vantage in one market as In another.

Although it was explained in con-
nection with the resignation Of Am
bassador Bryce that there was no sig
nificance other than the desire Of this
diplomat to get out of business be-
cause of advancing years, there has
come out the usual story Of other rea-
sons. 1t is stated that there Is dissat-
isfaction with Mr.. Bryce in England
because he has become too much Of an
American, or rather more Of an Ameri-
can than an Englishman, and that he
has not handled British interests in
connection with Panama canal tolls in
a manner satisfactory to the British
government. The reason given for the
old gentlemans retirement was only a
diplomatic reason.

President-Elect Wilson says he does
not propose to have any behind-the-
door conferences, with callers at the
White House; that he will receive visi-
tors at his office with the doors open,
so that people outside can see and
hear what takes place. 1t is said that
this is the plan the president-el has
been pursuing as governor Of New
Jersey, and its effect has been splendid,
regardless of the disgust of the dark
lantern politicians who want to have
secret understandings with the execu-
tive. The plan is suggestive of self
confidence and ability of high order,
and as to whether Mr.. Wilson will be
able to put it in execution remains to
be seen in the future.
