DEMOCRATS AGREE ON BILL,
HOPE FOR FINAL REPORT ON
CURRENCY BILL WITHIN
NEXT WEEK,
Plan to Force Democrats into Line
by Caucus Methods Abandoned
Another Meeting Called When Eff
forts for Agreement Will be Made.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE attempt
to force the administration currency
through the senate by the way of
a Democratic caucus was abandoned
today and the banking and currency
| committee OF the senate was given
time for further consideration of the
bill.
A practical agreement by six
Democratic senators, half of the COM
mittee, and hope for a final report
within five or six days was reported
to the Democratic conference by Sem
ator Owen when it met today and at
his request the conference took no
action.
Since the call for the conference
was issued Senators Reed and O'Gor-
man had joined Chairman Owen and
Senator'S Pomerene, Shafroth and
Hollis, supporters of the administra-
ton measure, despite their votes
against some of it's provisions in the
committee. These six Democrats yir-
tually have agreed on bill which
meets the views of President Wilson.
This measure will be taken before the
senate as soon as possible.
A further attempt to swing Sena-
tor Hitchcock in line with his Demo-
cratic colleagues was made in q
meeting Of Democrats of the commit
tee after the conference but Senator
Hitchcock insisted that he could not
reconcile his views with the Demo-
Gratis of the house.
Tomorrow the full committee
Democrats and Republicans, will
meet and another attempt will be
made to secure an agreement among
the majority.
IL this fails it is probable that
the Democrats and Republicans will
make an unanimous report on those
details Of the bill which they approve
and submit supplementary reports
showing their disagreement on the
fundamentals Of the bill.
TOday's conference was in session
about half an hour. Senator Owen
made statement of the situation
in the committee and said that six of
the seven Democrats were in prac-
tical agreement. He declared that
five or six days more would give the
committee time to frame a report
Without further discussion the con-
ference agreed to adjourn, subject to
call Of the chairman. Chairman Owen
was asked by several senators wheth-
er or not he was convinced that cur
rency legislation could not be put
through the senate at this session Of
congress and whether an adjourn
ment Of congress might not we'll be
taken. He made no definite reply
but several senator's took the po-
sition that SO far as currency legis-
latiOn before December 1 was con-
cerned. congress might just as we'll
adjourn.
There has been considerable pres
sure for an adjournment but it is
understood that in view of the Mexi-
can situation congress will be kept in
Washington regardless of currency
legislation.

Lever Advocates Raising of More
Cattle.
Columbia, Nov. IA State wide
movement for live stock industry
was launched Saturday when 1875 rep
resentatiVe men met here to discuss
means of eradicating the cattle tick.
A committee Of five will pre- sent the
matter to the general assembly, ask
ing for $4,000 to fight the cattle tick
Subcommittees in every county will
create sentiment in favor of the move
ment.
Of equal importance was the adop-
tion of a resolution proposed by w.
w. Long, United States farm demon
stration agent, endorsing the plan for
the State to manufacture lime for ag-
ricultural purposes, and to sell it to
the farmers at cost
Richard /. Manning of Sumter,
urged the manufacture Of lime from
the deposits in this State. Clemson
College is giving from $4,000 to So
600 year in eradicating the cattle tick,
and without crippling other in portant
work it cannot give more from it's
funds, especially now since the fertil-
izer tax is not as large as it has been.
Mr.. Manning pointed out the neccs-
sity of the lime manufacture in con-
nection with the cattle industry. Cat
tie must have food and the legumes
furnish the best food fOl them. In or
der to raise leguminous crops lime is
necessary.
Comparisons were made by Mr..
Manning as to the cost Of lime in this
State and in other States. In South
Carolina the cost is about $5.65 the
ton. In North Carolina the cost is
s3.35 per ton. In Virginia an Act was
PASSED providing lime to the farmers
at the cost Of it's manufacture by the
State, and as soon as the Act became
law the Lime Trust attacked it on
the ground of unconstitutionality. The
lower courts in sustaining the Act
said the manufacture Of lime was the
best use to which convict labor could
be put. both from q humanitarian and
sanitary standpoint The use Of con-
vict labor to that end in this State was
urged. The necessity for the State to
furnish cheaper lime to the farmers
was stressed by Mr.. Manning.
1t is understood that the commits
sion appointed at the last session Of
the general assembly to investigate
phosphate and lime deposits may ad-
vocate the manufacture of lime and
its sale to the farmers at cost.
b. II. Rawls, United States animal
tie tick conference.
Congressman "A. F.. Lever was one
OF the speakers. and he delivered a
strong address, advocating the raising
of cattle and pointing out the necessity
for the eradication of the cattle tick.
Several experts made brief speeches
on the subject OF stock raising and
tick eradication. 1t was stated that
the meeting is The beginning Of a gi-
gantic cattle IA sing industry in South
Carolina. Farmers i'm every section Of
the State will be urged to raise more
cattle and the advantages of stock
raising will be pointed out. One meth
od will be through the banks, whose
customers will be urged through that
medium OF engaging i'm the industry.
Alfalfa and other legumes are now
being raised in South Carolina, and
one speaker said in view Of this there
is no reason why South Carolina
should not become the greatest cattle
raising State in the union.

The Seaboard Air Line is so busy
completing its Florence. Georgetown
and Charleston extensions To open up
an undeveloped country which is rich
I'm timber resources that IL has tenn
porarily forgotten the promise to
build from Sumter to Charleston.
therefore II behooves the business
men OF Sumter TO get together and
do something for themselves and tho
town. The most feasible proposition
and the one that would be os imme>
date and lasting benefit TO Sumter
and Sumter county would be rail-
roads through Concord and Shiloh to
Olanta. With the united backing OF
the business OF this city and the CO.
operation OF the people the sections
that the road would traverse II can be
financed and built within the next
year.

sion. will be welcomed and suitably
entertained by the Cham Der of Com
merce.
Some OF the grocers and butchers
who are catering to the fancy trade
are selling choice beef st eak at 50 to
40 cents "a pound. This Is the best
argument In favor OF cattle raising In
this section. Beef becomes higher i'm
price every year and the supply OF
beef cattle Is being more and more de-
pleted each year instead of increas-
Ing i'm proportion to the increase in
population.
