will be two excellent routes between
Glover to Yorkville, and of practically
the same length. AS everybody knows,
who has travelled 1t. the road has been
shortened between Yorkville and Fill

cy issue can there be than a warehouse
receipt for cotton when the state Of
South Carolina guarantees the delivery
of that cotton on the production Of that
receipt? Cotton Is -perishable
export crop It has standard grades
and prices the world over. 1t Is almost
an American monopoly, and is the one
great export crop. 1t Is folly not to
take advantage Of such a situation. II
our cotton warehouse certificates are
used as they expect to use similar col
laterals in other sections Of this coun-
try, it will simply mean that we can
utilize our assets and get money as
readily as the holder of bonds and
say that they did not believe it would
be a good thing to use these certif-
Gates In this way, as there would be
a tendency to warehouse and hold cot
ton indefinitely. I do not think so.
do not think that with cheap money
planters would hold for high prices.
see very few cotton planters getting
rich, and the labor on our plantations
gets the poorest pay and has fewer
comforts than any people know any
thing about. A man can not grow
cotton and count a fair price for his
own services, interest on the invest
ment, waste. and wear and tear, at less
than IL cents pound. Cotton ought
to be 20 cents a pound in proportion to
the price Of everything else. I do not
see, however, after the price Of cotton
producer how there could be conges-
ton, because whenever the increase In
the volume Of domestic money raised
the price It would pay better to sell in
stead Of to warehouse. Cotton would
come out OF the warehouse until the
equilibrium price was restored. In fact,
all that the warehouse can do or was in
tended to do is to enable the supply
and demand Of cotton to be kept In
proportions to the supply and
demand of money. adverted to this
in my former letter to you, and will not
repeat.
I thank you for your courteous let
ter, and am ready to do anything In my
power to better conditions. I will
simply say in conclusion that, having
the actual wealth, 1t Is merely a ques-
ton of our ability to utilize 1t. II we
haven't the brains to seize the fruits,
why someone else will get them, or
rather continue to appropriate them,
as they do now.
Very truly yours,
John L. McLaurin.

Cotton Receipts-What the Oil Mill Is
Doing-Fertiizers Behind Last Year
-YorkviIle and Filbert Road.
i-nrresnnnhenca The YorkYille ENQUIRER

Glover, March 21.-Nearly 5000
bales of cotton have been bought by
the local buyers since the opening of
the season last fall, and II is estimat-
ed that they will buy not less than
| 900 more between now and Septem-
ber making the largest purchases in
the history of the market. The cot
ton has come from a wider territory
than ever before, much of it being
hauled from II to Is miles.
Up to this time the Glover Cotton
Oil and Ginning company has ginned
3,O67 bales of cotton-about 1000
bales more than last season. Mr: l..
G.. Thompson, the manager, says that
he expects to gin q few more bales
yet. but has no idea that the final to-
tai will exceed 3.075. This is the
third season that the oil mill has been
operated and the output OF oil, meal
and hulls has been decidedly larger
than either of the previous seasons
and the results promise to be quite
satisfactory to the stockholders. Ow-
ing to the fact that many OF the far-
mers throughout this section have
learned that they can save money and
get equally satisfactory results by
mixing their own fertilizers. the local
demand for meal has been far greater
than ever before.
Not exceeding one-half as many
carloads Of fertilizers have been re-
ceived here up to this time as at the
same date last year, and the outlook
now Is that many farmers will be dis
appointed in getting what they want
in time for their crops. The dealers
claim that their customers have been
backward about placing orders, or
even stating the amount they would
likely want, and as a result they (the
dealers) did not place orders with
manufacturers as usual, as they did
not care to buy fertilizers unless rea-
sonably certain that they would not
be left on their hands. as 1t Is a COM
modify for which they have absolute
ly no use except to sell.
Mr.. Jas A. Clinton recently SOLO
his house and lot on the east side OF
Main street to Mr.. s. A. Sinord, pro-
prietor of the Glover Hardware com
pany, at ah andsome advance over the
price he paid for ii three or four years
ago. The lot is centrally located-one
of the best unOccupied business sites
I'm town-and while Mr.. Sifford has
not as yet definitely decided to do so,
1t is probable that at some time In the
future he will erect a cOmmOdious
brick building on 1t to be used as a
home for his business.

hatred is still so intense that they will
drive out any blacks that attempt to

GROWTH OF SOCIALISM.
Underwood Charges II to Alleged Inn
proper Court Decision.

proper Court Decision.
Democratic Leader Oscar w. Under
wood, supporting the proposed excise
tax bill in the house last Monday,
charged that the supreme court, by Its
annulment Of the income tax In 1895,
was responsible for the growth OF So
cialism in the United States.
The pending measure, which proba-
bly, will pass the house tomorrow, is
expected to raise between $50.0o0.ooo
and 100000, 900 year in revenue for
the government. Multi-millionaires-
Andrew Carnegie, ]. Pierpont Morgan
and John D. Rockefeller-would be
compelled to pay their full share OF
taxation under its teUns, the Demo-
cratic leader declared.
when the government had the right
to tax wealth." said Mr.. Underwood,
I'VE did not hear the socialistic cry OF
unrest"
Mr.. Underwood defended the meas
ure under a rapid fire Of questions
from Republican Leader Mann, Repre-
sentatives Madden Of Illinois: Long
worth of Ohio, and Campbell Of Kan
sas, all regular Republicans.
A remarkable demonstration marked
the speech Of Representative Littieton
of New York, early In the day. He
devoted more than an hour In citing
from court records to prove the consti-
tutionality of the bill and urged Its
passage.
II want to say that II we expect to
tax the wealth Of the country as we
ought to tax It," he said, I'VE must not
stand paralyzed before this impending
influence of the court. We cannot
forecast the judgment Of the court,
but we must not let that impede us.
Il do not want to be misunderstood
as railing at the judiciary" said Mr.
Littleton. II do, however, want to be
as criticising the supreme
courts decision Of 1895 on the income
tax law, which cut Off at one stroke
three-fourths of the taxing power Of
the government"
Mr.. Littleton occupied the space In
front Of the speakers rostrum, sur
by a small mountain Of law
books. When he had concluded prac-
tically the entire membership Of the
house fiocked around him and 1t was
with difficulty that order was restored.
He was followed by Representatives
Clayton of Alabama; Irvington of
Maryland, and Sweet Of Michigan.
