AS TO HOG CHOLERA.

The following correspondence which
explains itself fully will be Of some
local interest and possibly Of value:
Editor Yorkville Enquirer:
In the April issue Of your paper i
note report of an outbreak OF hog
cholera on the premises Of ]. T. Craw-
ford Of McConnellsville. In your in
PRODUCTION to the news item you call
attention to a lesson worth while,
namely that the "buzZard Is most
common carrier Of the disease" How
ever, there is a more important lesson
to be learned from our present state
wide outbreak Of cholera. This Is the
proper disposal Of carcasses and the
use of serum as a preventive. Regard
ing the disposal Of carcasses, l regret
to say that our citizens are very neg
ligent in this matter and / trust the
law passed at the last session Of the
general assembly (copy enclosed) will
remedy this. Regarding the use of
serum l wish to call attention to the
value Of this as a preventive. We have
proved that 1t saves 95 per cent OF
healthy hogs If injected before they
contract the disease. 1 enclose copies
Of letters received from ]. T. Crawford
and F.. A. Crawford of McConnellsville
showing results Of serum used on
their premises.
Trusting that you will give this
matter publication for the benefit Of
your readers l remain, Very truly
yours, M. Ray Powers.

People who claim that The Enquirer
occupies a position in which II holds
that if there is no Prohibition candi-
date for governor. it does not care
anything about who is elected, are
mistaken. The Enquirer has never
given utterance to any such sentiment
About all The Enquirer stands for on
the Prohibition question is that 1t is
opposed to government sanction OF
the liquor business under any circum-
stances. We have no alternative to Of
fer, because we can think of no alter
native to offer that we can approve.
But we have suggested and it is our
firm conviction, that one of the present
candidates for governor does not offer
the Prohibitionists any more than does
the other, and that Judge Jones has no
more claim on the Prohibition vote
than has Governor Blease. Of course
whenever a Prohibitionist prefers to
vote for Judge Jones, that is his busi-
ness, and where Prohibitionist pre-
fers to vote for Gov. Blease, that is his
business. We have seen no reason,
however, from either political or NOR
al standpoint, where one of the can
didates has a stronger claim on the
support of the Prohibitionists than the
other. And we don't see anything in
the situation that calls upon The En-
quirer to fight the battles of one side
against the other.

CIRCUIT COURT.

The first case taken up in the court
of common pleas this week was that
of Mackorell Bros. vs. the Western
Union Telegraph company. This is
an action for damages because of the
alleged failure of the telegraph COM
pany to deliver promptly an order
for a lot of flour. The jury found for
the plaintiff in the sum of 1925.
The next case taken up was that of
the town of Yorkville VS.. c. E. Spen-
Ger, involving an appeal from a jury
in condemnation proceedings. The
condemned property included frac-
ton over two acres, desired by the
town for a pumping station and as a
source of public water supply. The
jury in the initiatory proceedings, as
sessed the value of the land at about
s4S5. Both sides appealed, the defend
ant because he considered the award
too low and the plaintiff because
of such technical advantage as
might accrue. The case consumed
more than two days and result
ed in a verdict for the defendant, Mr..
Spencer in the sum of $500, the
amount carrying the actual value of
the property and what the jury con-
sidered to he reasonable and Just
damages.
After the publication of the verdict
i'm the foregoing case, Judge Gary an
nOunced that he had received a tele-
gram announcing the death of an aunt
and as he desired to attend the funer-
al. he dismissed the jurors from furth-
er attendance on court.

One of the innexplicable things of
political activity is the tremendous
zeal that can be aroused in the indi-
vidual citizen in the interest Of can
didate who has no actual claims on
such zeal. Men take an idea that the
world will come to an end except for
their own activity. and they go in to
promote the cause of some other fell
low as If 1t were a matter of life and
death, when as a matter Of fact they
would find 1t impossible to suggest a
single practical end in view. Others
take to the other. extreme, continuing
Indifferent to the claims OF all candi-
dates. Although saner than members
of the first described class, it can
hardly he said that they measure up
to as high a standard of citizenship.
The proper thing for every man to do
Is to give the whole situation as care
full an investigation as practicable, and
then vote with as much judgment and
intelligence as can be brought to bear.

Almost anybody can see a lot of cot

urally he would have recourse to the

of anything much better that he could
do, just now; but clearly he could
hope for no better price than would
be paid by the nearest buyer in this
immediate section when there is a
probability that if he only knew where

The problem of making a purchase
does not involve the same difficulties,
Dealers up in this business are always
looking for buyers, and buyers of

and is in fact, quite as valuable as
railroad or any other kind of bond 1t
is based on as great sureness or value.
1t is as much an evidence Of wealth.
But rich men are able to bond their
properties, thus being able to obtain
money readily on favorable terms,
while the idea that the same use
farmers benefit, Is held up as revolu-
tionary.
1t is not revolutionary. 1t Is merely
common sense. The demand is simply
a determination of farmers to put
their industry on a business founda-
ton. There is in the scheme no finan-
cial unsoundness. 1t Is not like free
silver, or the greenback craze, or any
of the wildcat financial expedients
suggested at different times In our his
tory. 1t is a plain, simple, honoraDle
ard sensible plan for making use OF a
great asset. :,
Cotton warehouse certificates should
be as good security as any in the
world Only arbitrary rulings can
keep it from so being.-News and
Courier.
That is all sane. sound and sensible,
and it gives us especial pleasure to
see such views expressed by the News
and Courier, even though it is not as
fully committed as we would like to
see. We believe that the most effective
way to manage the warehouse idea Is
under state supervision, and we be-
lieve that this kind Of management
has the full sanction of the constitu-
ton of South Carolina. OF course we
recognize that the supreme court can
honestly decide otherwise; but If 1t
does so decide, just as sacred as such
a decision should be held, as sacred
also is the right of the people to
amend the constitution 80 as to cover
any defects. We believe that In the
state warehouse idea there is practi-
cal means of increasing the financial
prosperity and independence of the
state of South Carolina, and we do
not think anyone can deny that the
increased prosperity Of the cotton pro-
ducers of South Carolina will mean
the increased prosperity Of the whole
state. The warehouse idea. as the
News and Courier says, is not revolu-
tionary. 1t Is merely common sense.
and mighty good common sense at
that.

wilfully disregarded the rights Of the

trouble. Public office is not a gift
to be bestowed on friends. The pres

exercise of the power Of veto Gov

great power in such a way as to best
subserve the interests Of all the peo-
