ARE OPPOSED TO INCOME TAX.
National Representatives Get Signed
Circulars from Insurance People.

Washington, May 7.-Thousands
Of protests from policy holders in
big New York insurance companies
are pouring upon congressman and
Senator's against the income tax sec
ton of the Underwood tariff
These protests usually are in the
shape of printed circulars, sent to
the policy holders by the manage
ment of the companies, the policy
holders signing them and forwarding
them to their Senators and Repre-
sentatives, or both. The burden of
the complaint is that the dividends
of mutual life insurance companies
should be exempted from the opera
tion of the income tax, as is the case
with beneficial and fraternal organiza-
tions 1t is set forth that the income
tax law of 1894, which was pro-
nounced unconstitutional by the
United States Supreme Court, ex-
empted all three forms of insurance.
Senator Tlllman, however, is in
possession Of an interesting document,
which has come to him as the result
of the activity Of New York COM
pany Instead Of filling in the circu-
lar as the company indicated a Char
lesion policy-holder has inserted the
word mot" thus declaring that he
does not desire to protest against the
tax to life insurance policies, and at
the bottom of the sheet he has made
a notation to the effect that he wishes
to congratulate the Democratic party
on it's income tax policy and also to
congratulate Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo on his recent orders re-
quiring national banks to pay interest
on their Government deposits

REBELS FAIL IN ATTACK,
Mexican Rebel Troops Make Two
Unsuccessful Attacks on Cuerncva-
ca, MOrclos.

Mexico City, May 5.-Zapata forces
failed in two attempts today TO cap
ture Cuernevaca, capital of Morelos.
Gen. Roblez, the federal commander
reporting late tonight. says he expects
resumption of the rebel efforts. Re-
Inducements will be sent from here
tomorrow.
From the north official reports say
that the rebels have been defeated at
Nillaidama, near Monterey.
While the rebels were engaging the
federals at Cuernevaca, official Mexico
was celebrating with big military
parade the anniversary of the battle
of Puebla i'm 1862.
The first attack on Carolina, a sub
urb of Cuernavaca, was repulsed by
Gen. Rabago with infantry supported
by artillery. The second attack came
from the direction of San Antonio, "A
village separated from Cuernavaca by
canyon. Fighting occurred across
this and the federals using artillery
and machine guns. forced the rebels
to retire.
All the strategic points around
| Cuernavaca were fortified tonight.
The attack on the town was coincident
with the announcement that Gen.
Robicz had designated Cucrnavaca,
Cuatula and Joiuita as concentration
camps. All who are not adhercnts of
Hapata were warned they must go to
these points. All of the other towns
in Morelos are to be dcpopulated,
and the residents remaining will be
regarded az rebels. 1t is likely that
these towns will be razed.

AN ANTI-DIsPENsARY MEETING,
Number Of People Hear Rev. j. l..
Harley Speak I'm Favor of Prohibit
ion.

meeting of those opposed to the
re-establishment of the dispensary in
this county was held i'm the court
house Wednesday night. a number of
ladies and gentlemen being present to
hear what the Rev. j. l.. Harley, su-
perintendent of the Anti Saloon
League in South Carolina, had to say
concerning the dispensary.
AT the close of the meeting anti
dispensary petitions were started in
circulation and signed by number of
those present. 1t was decided to hold
another meeting Monday night to
form an anti-dispensary organization,
In order that the fight against the re-
establishment Of the dispensary i'm the
county might be carried on in a sys-
tematic way. The anti-dispensary
petition will be circulated over the
county and was sent out Thursday
with this object in view. This pc
tition asks the county board not to
order an election held for the purpose
of voting on whether or not the dis
pensary will be re-established i'm this
county and asks that all names on
the dispensary petition which are
also on the anti-dispensary petition
be stricken off the dispensary Pc
tition.
The meeting was opened with pray
er and was presided over by the Rev.
}. +. Marion In the absence of DR.. C..
e. Brown.
Mr.. Harley made a very forceful
,alk against the establishment of
the dispensary, using a great many
and anecdotes to bring
out his points. He made several state
ments concerning the liquor houses
which, he asserted. were founded on
information which he deemed correct
that were of exceeding interest. One
OF these was that the liquor interests
were bearing the expenses Of having
foreigners, in this State and else
where, naturaiized and getting ne
groes to register so that they could
vote for the dispensary, or liquor in
terests. He further stated that in O
number of counties the liquor houses
were paying lawyers to look after
their interests and he insinuated that
this was the case in this county.
Mr. Harley's remarks were heard
with attention and the meeting was
evidently in spirit an nti-dispensary
meeting.

FRIENDLY ENTHUSIASM
FOR UNITED STATES

Buenos Ayres Nov. i3-Friendly en-
thusiasm was shown towards the Unit
ed States at the banquet given here
last night in honor of Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt and the distinguished
visitor himself was warmly welcomed.
The national hymns of the United
States and of the Argentine republic
were sung in a spirited manner while
hundreds of women in the galleries
threw great quantities Of flowers
upon the floor of the banquet hall aft
er Col. Roosevelt's speech.
NJ. Frers, a member of house of
deputies who delivered the speech OF
welcome referred to the visitors as
"the defender of the integrity Of the
Americas" and after paying him the
tribute of having entirely dispelled any
feeling of suspicion that may have
lurkeS among the Latin,American
countries of the friendly advances of
the United States he said:
The Great Pacificator.
1--WE will be justified in calling him
the great pacificator.
In his reply Col. Roosevelt defined
the Monroe doctrine explaining that It
was not an international law but a
policy Of the United States for all
Arpar;oo ua ,oid t;r,a, hos ,bopgad
since the adoption of that policy SO
that Argentine was now great mod
ern nation which needed no protection
and he added:
Il hope that the example OF the Ar
gentine will be emulated by all the
other Latin American republics and
that they will all accept the Monroe
doctrine as the leading article of their
policy"
The eX-president entered into the ex-
plantations of the policy of the United
States in Panama and Santo Domingo
and his audience manifested its APP
prevail When he concluded with the
expression of fervent hope that in
dependence and peace should always
exist throughout the new world the
women in the galleries threw down
flowers while the applause of the men
on the floor continued for several
minutes.
The Minister of foreign affairs Ce.
sario Carrera the justices OF the SUI
perior court and the members of the
diplomatic corps were among the
guests at the banquet.

WHY SHIP GRAIN TO MARKET?

Why ship grain to market is a
question which great many of the
successful dry farmers of the Blue
Creek section are asking themselves
and have answered the query by RE-
fusing the grain and hay. 1t is found
TO be more profitable to bring the
products of the dry farm to the mar
ket in the shape of poultry, hogs and
cattle. In reply to the above question
the Dry Farming Congress Service
has answered in the following langu-
age: slasansI
There is but one correct answer to
this question; He should not do 1t.
Yet the average western farmer of
today fails to do anything else. AS
matter of fact the practice Of sell.
ing wheat and corn, hay and other
farm crops from the land, year after
year, results in a gradual but constant
loss of soil fertility. 1t costs no more
to till soil which will produce forty
bushels of wheat per acre than soil
which is so worn that it will prod
uce but twenty. Herein is h funda-
mental principle of farming, and one
of the strongest arguments in favor
of live stock husbandry. The feeding
of farm animals not only means that
50 to 80 per cent of the fertiizing val
ue of the crops fed can be returned
to the land, but also that such forage
crops as alfalfa, clover and cowpeas
will be grown to accompany kafir, mi
10 and corn. The former crops draw
from the air more nitrogen than is
sold from the land in the shape OF
meat or milk products and the eff
feet Is to build up instead of to tear
down.
Every farm should be factory.
Dividends depend upon the cost of
marketing. Live stock provides
home market for the crops grown.
Feeding live stock is means of con-
densing product to about one eighth
Of its original weight. Seven pounds
out of every eight are there by mar
Eeted on the farm, reducing the
freight charges for transporting grain
by 81 1-2 per cent, and doing away
with the usual haul to the local mar.
ket or elevator. The utilization OF
waste roughage, the seasonal distri-
button OF labor, the added pleasure
of farm life; all are additional points
for the western farmer TO consider
when mapping his course to farm sue
cess

These later conditions will be en-
phasized in the United States because
the factories are running on orders
booked many months ago and the
manufacturers have not taken cor
responding number of new orders.
There is also a constantly decreasing
movement toward tilling the soil in
proportion to the growth of popula-
ton. 1t is well known that leading
industries in the United States are
producing less, that orders are not
being booked and that stagnation
threatens in metals and textiles in
anticipation of foreign competition.
English manufacturers as well as
the French and German can do lit
tie more when the inviting markets
Of the United States are thrown open
to their goods, duty free. This influx
must displace American goods and
American labor which Will be idle
while the English workingmen are
busy supplying goods for this mar
ket. Sir Alfred Mosely characterizes
this squirt in English industries as
bastard prosperity which economists
look upon as merely a temporary re-
lief to changing conditions in England
but a prosperity that will necessarily
hasten the inevitable closing of mills
in America. With the conditions re-
versed here, with idle mills and men
without employment while prices con-
tinue high will come a revulsion In
public sentiment and the election of
an administration pledged to restore
the tariff. History will repeat itself.
