WITHIN THE TOWN

A number of AncOna mill villagers
are taking much interest in the pigs
that they are raising for slaughter next
fall and winter. Some Of them have
fine hogs in prospect.
- Mr.. John James Of Yorkville, has
purchased the Lowrance place near
Yorkville. This was formerly the prop
erty Of Mr.. Walter Rose. There are
sixty-five acres in the tract and the
purchase price was $1,250.
Information from several members
of Co. "L." now on encampment at An
derson, is to the effect that they are
having a great time. They say that
their duties are very light and in spite
of the hot weather they are enjoying
the outing immensely.
Mr.. Alonzo Rose Of Yorkville, yes
terday sold his house on Main street to
Mr.. J. A. Tate. The purchase price has
not been made public. Asked yester-
day as to what he intended to do, Mr..
Rose said that he had not fully made
up his mind. He has no idea of leav-
ing Yorkville at present. and since he
has several pieces Of property in York
Vile, will probably live on one Of them.
1.-The deal yesterday is the sixtieth real
estate trade I have made since I have
been married." said Mr.. Rose. He also
said he did not care to make the pur-
chase price public. 1T Is Of no inter-
est to any one except the purchaser
and l." he continued, "but you might
say that 1t is quite satisfactory to both
of u.s."
There was some little excitement
at the Zion Methodist church, colored,
of Yorkville, Sunday night, when Sher-
man Sanders, one Of the members of
the congregation, grasped the pastor,
B. ]. Arnold, by the arm and elected
him from the pulpit. Arnold has been
pastor of the church for the past six
months, and for the past several weeks
the congregation has appeared to be

WORK OF CONGRESS
Present Extra Session May Run on to

Present Extra Session May Run on to
December.
That the present session Of congress
will run into the next regular session,
which begins in December, is the opin-
ion expressed by Speaker Clark. 9th
er house leaders, while somewhat
more optimistic than the speaker,
placed the date subsequent to October.
The tariff debate in the senate, the
currency discussion in both houses,
and the double lobby investigation are
expected to occupy the attention OF
congress for not less than two months
and possibly until the first Of Decem-
ber. .... f.
When asked what his prediction
would be regarding the wind-up OF
the present session, Mr.. Clark said,
"11.59 o'clock on the morning Of De-
cember l." He said that from what
he has heard as to the number and
length of the speeches which have
promised for the senate debate on the
tariff, that body will hardly get
through with the bill until after Sep
tember /. By that time the senate
probably will have the currency bill
and the debate in connection with
that may be prolonged, according to
Mr.. Clark. ,..s .,"..
Representative Underwood, majori-
ty leader of the house and chairman
of the ways and means committee,
looks for the final passage Of the tariff
bill by September Is. Mr.. Underwood
does not believe there will be any se-
rious obstacles in the way Of speedy
agreement on the tariff bill when 1t
goes to conference. He Is keeping up
with all Of the changes proposed in
the senate and does not regard any
that have been made by the finance
committee as Offering any great diff
Guilty Of adjustment. .-..
IT 90 not believe that congress can
adjourn before the middle of Septem-
ber," said Mr.. Underwood. II think
that the house will have passed the
currency bill and will have agreed to
the tariff bill by that time. Whether
the session continues later, depends
upon the course the senate adopts
with respect to the currency bill"
Representative Finis ]. Garrett Of
Tennessee, the chairman Of the house
lobby invests eating committee, was
not as sangLine of an early adjourn
ment as Mr.. Underwood when the
house committee Is able to proceed
with the lobby probe 1t will undoubt-
edly take weeks to cover the ground,
in fact. the investigation may take
months" said Mr.. Garrett. "The res
olution under which the committee is
acting is very broad, and while the
committee will exercise discretion as
to the scope of the inquiry, we pro-
pose to do the job thoroughly. That
it will take us long time there can
he no question:" ....

1t seems to us that If there is one
branch of the public service wherein
strict obedience to the letter and spirit
Of the law Is more desirable and neces-
sary than another, that branch Is the
military service. And we would be
glad to see a change. We do not feel
inclined to take any sides In this con-
troversy that has been going or be-
Moore, because we have a feeling that
neither Of these officials are entirely
right or entirely wrong. The fact Of
the business Is that the militia arm Of
the government has never been run in
strict accordance with the law. and 1t
is not being so run now. This require
ment for instance, that company
shall not be entitled to transportation
or pay in connection with an en-
campment with less than thirty-eig
men Is not new. AS to whether
any company has ever been passed on
encampment with less than thirty
eight men we do not know; but we
think 1t can be established that 1t has
been a common thing for companies to
show up at encampment with less than
thirty-eight men and afterward fill in
the quota by borrowing from other
companies that have more than the re-
quirement. This. Of course. is irregu-
IL t. an Of
larities Every company in the state
includes some first class military ma
terial; but at the same time most Of
the companies have a number Of men
who are here merely for the purpose
Of filling up the gaps, and evading the
law. We do not doubt that Gen. Moore
has stood for more or less Of this in
times past, and 1t Is a fact that the
majority sentiment Of the officers stood
for 1t all the while. The officers OF
course, do not prefer this kind of
thing; but they are willing to take II
rather than have no company, and the
effect is all the same. OF course, 1t
would mean a good deal Of hard work
to put the national guard on basis of
thorough efficiency; but common sense
teaches even those who have no
knowledge of military matters that a
half way ground here Is worse than
nothing. 1t is our opinion that If Gov
ernor Blease and Gen. Moore would do
the best thing for the military service
they will get together and insist that
hereafter the whole business shall be
conducted on a strictly military basis,
according to law, or not at all.

MeLaurin in Anderson.--In a private
letter to an Anderson friend. Senator
John L. McLaurin, now spending the
summer at Hendersonville, N. c., ad-
vises that he will be In Anderson the
latter part Of this or the first of next
week while the encampment is In pro-
gress.
Senator McLaurin has many friends
In Anderson county and when In the
United States senate always got fine
vote here. Since the published rumor
that he would be candidate for gov
ernor Of South Carolina, there has
been much favorable comment on his
prospective candidacy and no doubt
while he Is here he will ease his friends
by definite answer as to whether or
not he will be in the race.
Anderson friends Of the senator be-
lieve that IL he enters the race the
other candidates had just as we'll with
draw, as 1t is conceded that he will get
votes from all factions and would
make an ideal compromise candidate.
Anderson county voters are not TAX
ing to the candidacy Of the announced
candidates-Richards, Manning, Rem
bert and the two Smiths, Mendel and
c. A. Smith. The announcement In the
Intelligencer a few days ago that Nc
Laurin would probably make the race.
was received with delight in Anderson
county and should he offer, which now
seems certain, 1t Is believed that he
will walk away with the votes of An
derson county.-Anderson Daily Mail.
