ton to honor the first check, then the
PEOPLES National Bank of Rock Hill,
was the lowest bidder. It-looked like a
case Of heads win, and tails you lose,
and the right thing would have been
to reopen the bids.-Instead, however,
Messrs. Jones and Carter saw proper
to write the bank stating their UNDER
standing of the offer to be that there
would be no interest charge during the
ten days intervening after the notice.
Whatever might have been the result
had the Peoples National Bank OF
Rock Hill not been so close, there Is
no telling; but as 1t was the Palmetto
people acquiesced in Messrs. Jones and
Carters construction Of the bid and
that is the understanding. 1t will be
remembered that the Palmetto Ma
tionaIs first proposition under a pri-
vate agreement, was open to two con-
structions Cashier Matthews memo
randum to Governor Blease seemed to
say that each Of the six notes involved
was to begin drawing interest only az
ter the proceeds had been put to the
credit Of the state; but a demand for a
more explicit understanding developed
that the Palmetto National wanted in
terest on the whole 100000 from start
to finish. That caused hitch and re-
suited in the call for bids, which
pinned the Palmetto National down
to the original understanding. All bus
iness people should mean what they
say and say what they mean, and this
is especially becoming in bankers.

RULE TO SHOW CAUSE

The circuit court was engaged this
morning hearing counsel on a restrain
ing order issued by Judge Sease last
month against Auditor Love requiring
him to show cause why he should not
be enjoined from assessing certain nom
taxable bonds owned by the Lean &
Savings bank Of Yorkville, the Peoples
Trust company and the National Union
bank of Rock Hill. -'-
It will be remembered that when
these banks made their original re-
turns they took off so per cent Of their
actual values before deducting certain
nom taxable bonds they owned.
Comptroller General Jones claimed
that the bonds the banks understood to
be non- taxable under the statute are
really taxable, and instructed Auditor
Love to regard them SO. Auditor Love
attempted to follow the instructions of
the comptroller, his superior officer,
and the banks secured from Judge
Sease a temporary injunction raising
the question now before Judge Prince
( Messrs. w. w. Lewis. C. E. Spencer
and w. M. Dunlap are representing the
banks, and Assistant Attorney General
Dominick is representing Auditor Love.
After hearing what the attorneys on
either side had to say, Judge Prince re-
fused to make the injunction perma-
nent, leaving the matter where 1t was
when the present proceedings were
commenced. .s -..' ''i..-. ...'

THE CIRCUIT COURT

. The circuit court convened yesterday
morning according to announcement,
Judge George E. Prince presiding, and
after sounding calendar l, devoted the
day to such business as could be trans
acted without the help Of a jury.
The sounding Of Calendar l devel-
oped that Of eleven cases that might
possibly come up for trial during next
week, none Of them would be ready for
next Monday, and 1t was accordingly
decided that the court be adjourned
over until Tuesday morning.
There Is plenty Of jury business to
occupy the whole Of next week; but as
to what may happen in connection with
the matter Of course there Is no pre-
dieting.
Among the cases that have been
marked up for trial are the following:
Wylie vs. Jefferson Standard Life
Insurance company.
w. B. Sealey VS.. Fred Mobley.
]. B. and r. e. Fewell VS.. the Cataw-
ba Power company.

That proposition looking to the sys-
tematizing Of the marketing Of cotton
seed by grade Is to say the least Of it,
interesting, and although 1t is some
what revolutionary as compared to the
customs that have been followed here
tofore, it has much to recommend 1t.
The truth of the proposition that 1t Is
impossible to make good meal or good
oil from unsound seed is self-evident,
and as we see 1t the system of sampl-
ing that has been tentatively agreed
upon seems to cover the question pret-
ty we'll, at least for a starter. The main
question involved is to tell whether the
seed are sound or unsound and the ele-
ment of age also has some effect on
value. Almost any intelligent man
ought to be able to tell whether his seed
are good or not, and by the system
suggested, 1t ought not to be difficult to
arrive at the per centage of bad seed
in a given quantity. 1t is fact that
most buyers all along, have been Civ
ing more or less attention to the quail
ty question; and have been governed
accordingly in the prices they were
willing to offer: but this is the first
really serious effort to establish a
standard method of grading. How the
scheme is going to work remains to be
seen.

Governor sI.ase Gives Out State

Governor BIease Gives Out State
ment as to Goan.-Governor Blease
on Tuesday gave out the following
statement as to the recent state loan,
which statement appears in the News
and Courier of Wednesday,: '.
These notes have come back, as
stated in my letter, to my original
proposition, and thereby the state of
South Carolina has been saved many
dollars. Heretofore the state has bor-
rowed the full amount Of money which
she needed, whether 1t be 100000 or
100000, in a bulk, and 1t drew in
terest from the day 1t was borrowed.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
banks kept it on deposit and much OF
it was not paid out until late In the
year. Still the banks were holding
the money and the state was paying
them interest for 1t. II Mr.. Mat
thews' bid had not gone back to the
original proposition, all the other
banks underbid him and he would
have absolutely lost this loan, as Is
shown by the figures, and only by go
ing back to his original proposition
and agreement with me he was en-
abled to secure the loan.
Besides these matters, this prece-
dent which has been set will not only
now, but hereafter, be allowed, and
the state in the future will be saved
many thousands of dollars by paying
interest on money when 1t gets 1t, in
stead Of borrowing it months ahead
and paying interest when 1t Is not
using 1t, as it has been doing hereto
fore. Therefore, have gained some
thing for the state by making this
fight, as all must admit. However,
really think, and am still of the opin.
ion, that the legislature should put
the state on a cash basis and not have
to borrow this money every year. By
doing this, 1t would be unnecessary
to have a precedent such as this, sci
for borrowing committees"

THE COURT HOUSE

The court house commission met last
Tuesday and put in the day consider
ing matters in connection with the pro-
posed new building. deciding definitely
among other things, to sell the present
site and to get specific information as
to the cost Of prospective new sites.
The understanding Is that the pres
ent site Is to be offered for sale at pub
lie auction to the highest bidder or
bidders in accordance with the plan
that had been practically agreed upon
before the development Of the hitch In
connection with the sale Of the bonds
That is that the property will first be
offered as whole at the upset price OF
$4,000. II It does not bring $4,000
there will be no sale. II 1t brings more
than that sum It will be with the un-
derstanding that 1t must be resold. In
small lots, and II the amount realized
for these amounts to more in the ag.
gregate than the highest bid for the
property as whole, the first sale gives
way to the second. Otherwise the prop.
erty goes to the bidder who offered the
most for It as whole. II the proper.
ty is knocked down as a whole the
building will go with 1t. If It Is SOLD
piecemeal. the building will be solo
separately and the proceeds will be
prorated among the purchasers Of the
lots in proportion to the successful bic
:of each. The successful purchasers are
not to get possession until the new
building is ready for use; but they ar,
to have seven per cent for their pur.
chase money in the meantime. 80
The understanding Is that number
Of sites are to be condemned as soor
as practicable These will include thu
Marshall and witherspoon properties
on East Liberty street and the Hunter
property on West Liberty street, the
Smith and Bratton properties on th'
corners Of Jefferson and Congress!
streets and possibly other properties
After these properties have been con-
demned, the commissioners with the
specific information then available, will
undertake the matter Of location.

The pispensary ousstion.-Encour-
aged perhaps by the result Of the
recent dispensary elections in eley-
en- South Carolina counties, In which
the dispensary Is held to have won In
all save one county, there has been
some talk in Rock Hill of an election on
the. proposition for York county. OF
course there is nothing to be said
against a free expression OF opinion on
the subject-those who think that the
sale of liquor from dispensaries In York
county would help our people morally
or financially are as much entitled to
their opinion as those who know from
experience that there are few things
which could operate more to the detri-
ment of the public good than the dis
pensary. York county tried the dispen-
sary some years ago and welcomed the
opportunity to get rid of 1t. Nothing
has since occurred to indicate that
there has been a change Of sentiment
throughout the county with respect to
the institution. So we are inclined to
think that IL the matter should come
to an election, the Rock Hill dispen-
saryites will receive very little help
elsewhere in the county. But II we are
to Judge from one or two newspaper
articles we have read from Rock Hill
parties, there Is an opinion In that City
that Rock Hill will decide the matter
for herself, regardless Of the wishes of
the balance of the county. There is
nothing quite like one setting himself
up as the master Of his own destiny as
we'll as the destiny Of others, but when
1t comes to a vote on the dispensary
for York county, there is apt to be a
good deal said about the proposition
outside of Rock Hill-Fort Mill Times.
