DR.. CrOmer Makes Statement.

To the Editor of The State:
am sorry that Gov. Blease saw
fit to use my name in the special
message giving his reasons for veto-
ing the libel bill. It is a distinction
that did not covet, and in which I
find no pleasure. The news item to
which it refers might very well have
been left in the rubbish heap Of pre-
election campaign matter. The card
that / wrote, and to which reference is
made, was intended 10 make certain
corrections as a simple act of justice
to Mr.. Blease. It was not intended
to charge either directly or Indirect
ly that either Mr.. Banks or The State
had Intentionally published what was
false. I do not always approve the
editorial policy Of the State, but T can
not close my eyes to the great service
that the paper has rendered. I had
occasion in a recent letter to the edi-
tor to give him assurance of my ap-
probation of the strong and manly
fight that The State has persistntly
made for order and decency in South
Carolina;

In the death Of Mr.. Josiah Doar the
press of the State loses one of it's
most faithful and devoted members
Mr.. Doar was one of the first members
of the State Press association that we
met on our first visit to an annual
meeting. He was kind to us then and
We were ever after good friends. We
mourn his death and extend our SYM
pathy to his family. He had been
connected with one paper for nearly
half a century, and at the same time
had filed different Offices of honor
and trust in his county.

we have practically raised 100000
bales of cotton for nothing.

bales OF COTTON lot nOlulAS.
Why will the farmers do such a
thing raise two bales Of cotton, to get
the price one ought to sell for? Re-
member you did it, do not blame any
one else. Who is to remedy this state
Of affairs. I say the farmers, you who
produce the cotton.
I wish to, state to you, brother far
mers, that you are up against the big
gest proposition you have ever been
up against and you have got to fight
the battle.
AS to the cotton mill mergers, I do
not blame the mills. They have mer-
ged for their own benefit, so as to buy
the raw material cheaper and to sell
100000 bale crop of 1910, so you see
their finished product better. SO It is
now up to the farmers to join the Far
mers' union, and stand shoulder to
shoulder, and cooperate with each
other. Stand as one man, and If you
will do this and make home self-sup-
porting, you can always dictate the
price you will sell your cotton for. I
have heard many farmers, and like
expressions from other professions,
that we would not see any more cheap
cotton. I told them that they had not
studied the cotton situation. We are
all wiser than We were a year ago.
We have practically raised three mil
lion bales of cotton for nothing dur
ing the past year. Brother farmers,
it is as plain as A B C, as to what is
the matter. It is ruinious to any
country to have only one crop. Let
me remind you farmers that We did it
We raised the enormous crop, and
put this stick in the hands of our
enemies to crack our own heads with,
and they have used it on US to their
own good. The stick was the three
million bales that we raised for moth
ing. It was bear on the cotton mar
ket, which forced the price Of cotton
down to below the cost of production.
Now in conclusion, want to say a
word in justice to our bankers. They
have been quite liberal the past year,
having allowed our farmers the money
to raise the enormous crop OF cotton
and they did all they could to let
them hold cotton for better prices, and
many of them almost strained their
own credit to tide over their custom
ers. ...> :.:@
Farmers you are the ones that make
high price cotton and you are also
the ones that make low price cotton.
Which do you want for 1912? High
or low? If you want low prices for
your cotton crop this fall, do not cut
acreage. If you want high prices, cut
your acreage 80 per cent, as well as
the use of fertilizers and plant oats
and corn. The condition that exist
in South Carolina, is the same that
exists in every cotton State, which
shows why cotton is selling below the
cost of production.

Comptroller General Jones

Comptroller General Jones esti-
mates the total cost of running the
State government during this year at
s2,554,514.87 and total estimated
revenue of little less than two mil
lion dollars, or a deficit of more than
half million dollars. In order to
make up this deficit il will take
increase of nearly two mills in the
time to think about cutting down ex-
penses somewhere.

notice of appeal was given from the
circuit to the supreme court, I am
familiar with the whole matter Guin
had been represented by Messrs. Cole.
