WITHIN THE TOWN

Quite number Of Yorkville people
are reporting ripe tomatoes, and others
say they will have tomatoes in abun-
dance at the end Of ten days. 90.
The new trains Nos. Z and went
into operation last Sunday, and are be-
ing fairly we'll patronized. They con-
tribute very materially to the breaking
of the monotony and humdrum Of the
daily routine, and they should materi-
ally develop travel.
The ball game on the local grounds
yesterday afternoon between teams
representing Glover and Yorkville, was
a very loosely played and long-drawn
out contest The Glover boys got the
locals somewhat ratified in the first in
ming by scoring four runs, and this
lead they held throughout the game,
except in one inning when the locals
were one run ahead. There was very
little team work on the part Of the
Yorkvi!le players and the game was
nothing like that which they have
5iayed or can play, II they will put
more ginger into their work. The Clo-
verites are strong on team work. The
final score was IA to 9.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1913-07-01

Dispatches of yesterday from WASH
ington indicate that the South Carroll
ma National Guard question is in a
fair way for settlement. Secretary
Garrison appears to be little sore be-
cause of Governor Blease's reference
to Yankee uniforms, and that Is about
ALL In a letter to the South Carolina
delegation, the secretary says that the
whole matter can be smoothed over by
proper letter from Governor Blease.
He says he is willing to pay for the
transportation and subsistence for all
the South Carolina troops on encamp-
ment, and will pay the per diem of
the troops not concerned in the mus
ter out controversy. AS to the others,
he is willing to pay them also later on,
if it should appear that they have come
up to requirements in the meantime.
Secretary Garrison says he has not or
dered the mastering out Of any South
Carolina troops; but in effect puts the
responsibility on General Moore. He
says that he has absolutely no au-
thority over the state troops, who are
under the direct command of the gov
ernor; but insists that he must COM
ply with the law governing the distri-
button of money. AS to what Govern
or Blease has done or will do, The En-
quirer has not yet been advised; but
at this writing it appears that the sec
retary of war has about come the gov
ernor's way, and there is very little
left for the trouble makers to crow
about.
