War and the Price of Cotton.

The entire world is closely and de-
nendently linked together. The mis-
fortunes of one nation are rejected
in various ways upon the progress OF
another. Still there are those VINO
believe that a general European war
won't affect our United States very
much, but they are wrong, decioeoig
wrong.
England is great manufacturing
country, and much c. the Southern
cotton crop is exported to her shores
If England becomes engaged IN a oe-
cisive conflict mills will be curtailed
seriously, if not totally shut down.
This will mean fall in the cotton
market, which is even now dropping
rapidly from fear of war.
And then even if the mills are not
stopped, there will be falling OF IN
the buying Of manufactured cotton
goods, because of the war and strin-
sency of money which will follow
which will act disastrously upon the
price Of our staple.
The question of war and peace,
therefore, is one of many dollars and
cents to Southern farmers.

FEARFUL FOR COTTON.
The Low Price Resulting From War
win Harm Our Sountry Greatly.

VIII Harm Our Sountry Greatly.
: With the outbreak Of actual wal
the price of cotton broke also. Buy
ers don't know where they are at.
Mills are in doubt, and a condition
of bewildeFment seems to have set
tied upon trade No one realizes
exactly what will be the effect OF the
war upon cotton, except every one is
Informed expects it to cause lower
prices. This will result badly for
the people of this county, the pros
perity of which depends upon the
price Of cotton.
No other part OF the nation will
feel the war as the South will. The
price of toodstuffs will go up. due
to the necessity of the nations to be
fed, but when the mills shut down
there will be no outlet for cotton.
There is big difference between
buying food and buying clothing.
There is scarcely a family that could
not run a year or so if forced to do so
without buying more clothes, but not
so with eating.
If the price of cotton reduces
largely it will probably curtaiI busi-
ness in our section to great extent.
Preparations had been made by most
business houses for a large holiday
trade this fall.

ties Last Month.
The are hard times in South Caro-
lima for cattle ticks. They are re-
ceiving very rude treatment-being
killed in large numbers, in fact. Rap
id progress in the work of Statewide
tick eradication is reported by DR..
W. K. Lewis, inspector in charge.
Preliminary work begun July in
Edgefeld, Saluda, Lexington, Aiken
and Calhoun counties. This work
consists of locating infested premises
in order to have them ready for the
actual work of eradication in these
counties, which will begin next
spring. The work is under veteri-
marian and group of field agents.
DR.. Lewis said that many people
in these five counties who are inter
ested and willing to cooperate will
clean their premises individually be-
fore next year, which will make the
work Of eradication in these counties
simpler and more rapid.
Eradication work Is going forward
excellently in Charleston county, es-
pecially in the construction of dip
ping vats. Twelve or fifteen vats
have been built in that county already
and there is an expert on the ground
who is devoting his time solely to
this work 1t is expected that by
September Charleston will have be-

Columbia.

from the secretary Of states Office
read by the governor.
Eomeoody asked the governor:
How about the race track in Charles
ton?" "How much did you lose on it,
sucker?" asked the governor, in re-
ply.
The governor said it was right and
proper to call cotton conference IN
the present crisis, telling the crowd,
however, not. 70 be fooled into believ-
ling that such conference raised the
price of cotton; that when England
called upon her mill operatives to
fight, closing down the mills, the de-
mand for American cotton goods
| would greatly increas,. He said the
cotton conference was nothing in
the world but to fool somebody" He
| urged the farmers to hold their cot
ton.
L. D. Jennings, the last speaker,
was greeted with applause. Refer
ring to the Blease procession leaving
the stand in the wage of Gov. Blease,
who descended Immediately after his
speech was over, the speaker stated
that he had witnessed "a funeral pro-
cession like that in q moving nirtTre
last night; that the governor can
fool that bunch that's leaving Wa.
him, nobody wants their votes, any
how"
Referring to the figures submitted
by the governor and given above, Mr..
Jennings said the governor failed to
take into consideration the natural
increase in values, ETC., in this State.
adding that it was hard to say where
the figures would have gone had the
State a different governor.
l. Mr.. Jennings said that if Bleas-
ite is elected governor, he would ad-
wise the people to tear down the jails
and use the brick on the streets. or
sell them and get money "to protect
your wives and children" He related
what he charged were fragrant abuses
of the pardon power by the governor.
Mr.. Jennings said that the excursion
referred to by the governor was filed
with Bleasites, there being few anti
Bleasites aboard; that most of the
Bleasites we're from Clarendon county
and not twenty passengers from Sum-
ter. Reverting to the governors par
don record, the speaker said the
crowd knew that practically every
Bleasite felt secure should he come
in conflict with the law.
Mr.. Jennings declared tfat Gov
Blease has as much chance to be-
come United States senator as Huerta
has to again become president OF
Mexico Referring to the K. A.
Richey case, Mr.. Jennings said the
governor had gotten into such hole
in trying 10 explain this matter that
be had not again attempted to ex-
plain anything. The speaker declared
that nobody's life is safe in South
Carolina under present conditions, re-
ferring specifically to the shooting OF
DR.. James H. Mcintosh.

WAR CALLS ARE SENT
AUSTRIA AND SERVIA WANT
THEIR NATIVE SONS.

Los Angeles, Cal.
A proclamation calling upon all
patriotic Austrians, Hungarians and
Coatians to forward their addresses
at once to their nearest consulate has
been forwarded for publication to all
newspapers
throughout the United States by
Charles Winter, who is in charge OF
the Austro-Hungarian consulate in
New York city.
The proclamation contains the am
nesty proposal announced Tuesday.
At the consulate it was said returns
were expected from all Austrian sub
jects who had received special or in
dividual calls to arms. These reserv-
| lists, it was said, would be the first to
be sent over, then will come the 9TH
ers who have answered the general
mobilization call.
No official word has as yet been re-
ceiyed at the Servian consulate at
New York concerning mobilization
calls. This was accounted for by the
fact that all cable messages from
Servia must come through Italy and
Austria and therefore may have been
stopped in transit.
| Thus far the war clouds overhang-
ling Europe have not greatly affected
bookings for European ports. About

SEES NO FACTIONS.
Wilson Says He Will Not Fight Re.
election of Democratic Members.

President Wilson has decided not
to interpose any obstacles to the re-
nomination and reelection OF Demo
cratic members Of congress who have
supported the party's policies, no
matter what their local and State af-
iliations may be.
This policy, which is to be applied
generally during the coming cam
paigns, the president made known
Thursday during his conference with
Representative Fitzgerald and other
Democratic members of the House
from New York city, who called at
the White House to complain that
some of the federal appointees in
their State have been claiming they
had the support of the administration
in fighting them.
The president made it clear, while
his attitude did not necessarily mean
that he would not accept the indorse-
ments of particular members Of con-
gress for federal positions, the men
whom he does appoint will not be al
lowed to fight loyal Democrats with
the influence of the administration.
Although the New York congress-
men did not mention any names, they
bluntly told the president they had
been with the party since he came
into Office and they did not think it
proper for his appointees to attack
them in his Lame.
Some of the New Workers. went
into the conference agitated over the
telegram sent by Dudley Field Ma
lone, collector of the port of New
York, to Representative Fitzgerald,
ascking that Mr.. Malone be admitted
to the meeting Mr.. Malone did not
ask the president for an appointment
and was not present.
The members of the delegation left
the White House somewhat disap-
pointed because they had not been
promised any appointments, but de-
lighted over Mr.. Wilson's attitude re-
garding their candidates for re-elec-
t1on.

WHY IS THE DELAY?

War Experts Surprised at Delay of
German Army in Getting Into
French Territory


Army strategists are eagerly scan
ming news reports of the stirring
events that were taking place in Ger
many, Russia and France. There was
a complete lack of official information
in Washington as American military
attaches at European embassies and
legations are out of touch with the
war department.
Experts expressed some surprise at
the comparatively slow beginning of
the German campaign. The Ameri-
can war college had understood that
so perfectly had every detail of an
offensive campaign against both
France and Tussia been worked out
that within "a hours after the decla-
ration of war or after order for mobil-
ization, the first German 'battalions
would be many miles advanced across
both eastern and western boundaries
into the enemy's country.
There have been no reports Of bat
tie on any large scale, and the belief
is expressed among military men IL

holding back the dogs of war, and
that the full strength Of the mill.

are playing the last cards in the des'
perate game of diplomacy, not with
the hope of averting general war but
of obtaining individually such ad"an,
tages as they can through delayed
action.
After looking over available data
the strategists unanimously were o1
the opinion that the plans of cam

admit of a guess as to the real pur'
poses of the great military leaders

So far as can be discerned in Wash

east at this stage at least are rathel

Reports have come from Berli1
that German troops actually have
crossed the Russian frontier south o
