BUTTER FAT VS.. BUTTER

Il sold $133 worth Of butter fat to the
Yorkville Creamery between February
of last year and December /, and do
not hesitate to say that If 1t had been
ter of selling butter instead.
would not have gotten off $25 worth
during the whole year."
The speaker was Mr.. James F. Car
son, a substantial and well-to- do farm
er who lives about five miles south of
Yorkville, and the occasion of the re-
marks was some questions that the re-
porter asked Mr.. Carson yesterday in
connection with his experience In pa
tronizing the creamery.
"A part of the time," Mr.. Carson
went on. II had only one cow and a
part Of the time had four; but the av-
erage for the whole time included from
about the first of February to the first
of December was as near as 1 can esti-
mate, % cows"
Mr.. Carson explained that not hav-
ing the fortune to be on a milk route,
he had carried his milk to the cream
cry himself, and taken altogether he
was very well pleased with his expert
ence. Among the reasons he gave for
thinking that he had done so much bet
ter selling butter fat than he would
have done selling butter, was that the
local butter market is subject to such
quick and violent fluctuations as the
result Of q few days overstocking or a
few days under supply, that one can
never tell until after he reaches town
whether he is to get a good price for
his butter, or whether he will have to
give it away. Another reason In favor
of selling butter fat instead of butter
is that there Is very little trouble, la
Dor or responsibility in putting the but
ter fat on sale, while in connection with
butter making there Is a whole lot Of

Although the principles Of The En-
quirer may not be maintained today
with the firmness and power that
characterized the management Of the
founder of the paper, that is solely
through lack of the natural ability on
the part of the present management to
measure up to the unusually high
standard that has been set as pattern
But, nevertheless, the present manage
ment continues loyal to original princi-
Piles, and has not failed to live up to
the traditions referred to, to the best OF
its ability.
In the sense that a part Of the people
are always striving to one end while
another part is always striving to an
other end, and, still other parts are
striving to other ends, any many would
be leaders are always seeking first theiI
own supremacy, all politics are more OF
less partisan; but even with all this
and more especially with all this, it is
the duty of the newspaper to guard as
zealously as possible the eternal prin-
ciples Of right and truth upon which
the true welfare of the people can alone
find firm foundation.

Partisan Politics,

Although presumably there is but
one political party in South Carolina
there has never been a time in the his
tory Of the state when partisan poll
tics ran stronger, especially among the
newspapers.
While we are glad to say, there are
number Of weekly and semi-weekly
newspapers that seem to have the idea
that it is their duty to serve their read
ers fairly and impartially without re-
gard to factionalism, most Of the dailies
seem to be conducted on theory that
regards independent -partisanshir
as disloyalty to the profession.
We have noted individual writers
who seem to consider it their sacred
duty to disregard all knowledge OF
right and wrong and to stand by the
partisans to which they may be attach
ed with unquestioning blindness as to
whether the said partisans are seeking
the public welfare or only their own
peculiar ends.
The founder of The Yorkville En-
quirer had the idea that his duty was
to the public on basis Of eternal
right, and at no time did he ever allow
the paper to become the organ of the
private fortunes of any individual fur
ther than he considered those private
fortunes bound up with the public well
fare. And even in cases where he felt
it his duty to support the fortunes of
an individual in the furtherance of the
public welfare, he reserved the right to
halt and about step the instant he had
reason to believe that that individual
was begioning to feel that his own

agriculture Is still the chief problem and
pressing need Of our people. Industrial
education is too often restricted to the
class room and the work shop, although
our rich soil, our fertile fields, our
abundant harvests, our neglected farm
homes point the way for a much need
ed broadening Of the school curriculum
already too long overlooked or post
poned. 2.'.
1.-The education that counts must not
only make men happier, more useful
and more intelligent, but must supply
them with the means Of satisfying
their material, intellectual and aes-
thetic wants.
1.-The success Of boys corn clubs and
girls tomato clubs proves that this
type Of education is already winning
recognition from teachers, trustees and
county superintendents. While the na-
tional corn exposition emphasizes the
agricultural triumphs and possibilities
Of the whole country, one Of its most
significant features will be the educa-
tional exhibits from every section Of
the Union. Every farm boy and girl
will be given an opportunity to study
the finest collection of corn products
that can be brought together. Fl.
TT is highly desirable that the people
Of every county, of every school district
and Of every community should profit
by this practical demonstration of the
worth, methods and accomplishments
Of Industrial education. The teachers,
trustees, patrons and pupils Of every
school in your county should be invited
to take part in the exercises Of educa-
tional day. .... a.,
while the two prize winners of your
boys corn club will be given free trip
to Columbia to be present on boys day,
hope that every county superinten-
dent will not only send these represen-
tatives but will also bring in person the
entire membership Of the boys corn
club and the girls tomato club organ
lied during 1912.
"The programme for these two days
will furnish you message to take
home. I recommend that every school
in your county be given holiday Fri
day, January 81, on condition that the
teacher and trustees bring at least six
pupils to the exposition on educational
day and boys day.
Hoping that this suggestion meets
your approval, and that you are plan
ming to urge fine exhibit Of the prod
ucts, people and pupils of your county"

where the effect upon interstate trade
was indirect, and added, that in the
present case the trade was not fntra-
state and the effect was not indirect
TT was a conspiracy to run corner In
the market" said he. THE commodity
to be cornered was cotton, product Of
the southern states, largely used and
consumed in the northern states. 1t was
a subject Of interstate trade. The cor
ner was to be conducted on the cotton
exchange in New York city, but by
means which would enable the conspir-
ators to obtain control of the available
supply and to enhance the price to all
buyers in every market Of the country.
Bearing in mind that such was the ma
ture or object Of the scope Of the con-
spiracy he regarded 1t altogether plain
that by its necessary operation 1t would
directly and materially impede and
burden the due course Of trade and
commerce among the states and there
fore inflict upon the public the injuries
which the antitrust act Is designed to
prevent. The court said it made no
difference that there was no allegation
Of specific intent to restrain inter-
state trade. The conspirators must be
held to have intended the necessary
and direct consequences Of their acts
and cannot be heard to say to the
contrary" Justice Vandevanter con-
tinued.

President Taft made speech in New
York last Saturday night at what he
styles his own political wake" and
among other things undertook to ex-
plain the cause of his demise. The prin-
cipal reason he gave was that his enc
mics had represented him as an aristo-
crar and an enemy of the common peo-
pie, which charge, he proceeded to deny
at length. While we are not disposed
to charge the president with deliberate
Misrepresentation, we think he Is en-
tirely mistaken in the diagnosis Of the
case. The Republican platform Of four
years ago, pledged the party to "revi-
sion" of the tariff. Republicans and
Democrats alike understood this to
mean a general reduction of tariff sche-
dulles all along the line. 1t had not occur
red to the rank and file of voters that
revision" merely meant TO overhaul or
change, and under the circumstances 1t
had never occurred to anybody to give
the word such meaning. Nobody ever
thought that Mr.. Taft himself had
thought Of such thing. But when
Aldrich and others went to work and
revised the tariff upward, and Mr.. Taft
submitted to the arrangement, the
whole country began to feel that it had
been betrayed-buncoed, and it resolv-
ed to hit back. Mr.. Taft need not wor-
ry himself in the least about being con-
sidered an aristocrat. That does not
worry anybody. The common people"
are not much concerned along that
line. What the common people want
is practical results, and although the
common people" may be betrayed as
they were in this case, they cannot be
fooled. If Mr.. Taft had vetoed that
Payne -Aldrich tariff bill, or even de-
nounced it as humbug and fraud,
Mr.. Roosevelt could not have divided
his party against him, and the country
would never have seen the necessity of
electing Mr.. Wilson to do what it had
previously elected Mr.. Taft to do.

is estimated that there were more thar
three hundred mules on sale altogeth-
er, most of them shipped here especial
ly for the regular trade. Although the
mule lots were crowded all day and
there was a fair amount of trading
there were were only a few actual
sales. Prospective buyers contente6
themselves with a careful examination
Of the various offerings and getting in

minutes he had disposed of his avail
able supply, few less than two hun

could have given away as many more

that he adopted the idea with view to

pie were reading his advertisements
Among the people who called for calen-
dars, thirty or forty were colored.

and especially to these two feature days
of the first week. j. E. Swearingen,
state superintendent of education, has
addressed letter to the county super

AUCTION SALES

There was quite a large crowd OF
people before the courthouse door yes
terday on account Of the official auc-
ton sales for January, but most Of the
people were present mainly out Of GU
riosity rather than because Of interest
in the sales, which were not numerous
or extensive. ~,
The sheriff had been advertising two

their creditors in the meantime, both OF
the advertised properties were with
drawn.

Meningitis in CharIotte.-Mitchell
Steele, the colored man who Is now In
the Good Samaritan hospital, suffering
with epidemic cerebro spinal meningi-
tis, came to Charlotte January !, arriv-
ing at II o'clock at night from Talullah
Falls, Ga. DR.. Charles A. Misenhei-
mer was called to see him early next
morning and after diagnosing the case
at once placed the negro under quaran-
tine at the Good Samaritan hospital.
Microscopical examination Of the cere-
bro-spinal fluid verified the diagnosis.
Anti-meningitis serum was administer
ed at once and has been repeated at in
tervals Of "a hours since. Yesterday
the negro showed decided improve
ment and it Is very probable that he
will recover.
This disease appears in epidemic form
from time to time and now prevails In
several sections of the south, notably In
several places in Georgia and Tennes-
see. 1t is to be regretted that a case
has appeared in this city but 1t Is a
source of qualification that 1t was de-
tected Immediately and that prompt
and effective quarantine measures were
carried out. But scant opportunity
could have been afforded for the dis
semination of the infection during the
short period in which Steele was at
Liberty Dr. F. o. Hawley reports that
there are no other cases In the city. ,
This disease is one Of the most fatal
known to medical science, about one
half of those infected dying.
