Hght hard Tor the victory. Iowa Wss
eliminated in the race for the conference
championship last Saturday, being de-
feated by Chicago in the highest kind
OF scrap by a score Of to 0, but the
other three schools are all confident that
their colors will wave triumphant at the
close of the season.
The Minnesota eleven have proven
especially adept in the handling of
forward passes, much to the delight of
the spectators. In the game last Satur-
day against the Coyotes they gained 100
yards by means Of this style Of advanced
football, being successful in pulling off
ten of their eighteen attempts. Illinois,
too, under the tutelage of Coach Zuppke,
has apparently mastered this system of
otfense and by such means have run up
huge scores on their opponents in the
early contests.
Wisconsin, altho weakened by the loss
OF number Of veterans, has rallied with
splendid spirit and bids fair to give their
rivals a fine battle for the honors. Last
Saturday they defeated Purdue's veteran
team by score of IA to Z, coming up from
behind in the latter part of the game
and winning out. Purdue scored in the
first five minutes of play and as Wiscon-
sin failed time and again to get the ball
over it looked as if the Boilermakers
were to triumph. Then the Wisconsin
fighting spirit awakened and they rushed
the ball over the line for two touchdowns.
The previous week Wisconsin smothered
Marquette university under score of
48 to 0. It will no doubt be Of interest
to local rooters to learn that Long
Amann, New Ulm boy, played right
half for Marquette in this game and put
up fine defensive game, altho his team
was hopelessly outclassed.
With most of last years championship
eleven back this year and in addition
number of stars from the 1913 freshman
eleven prospects appeared very bright
Tor Chicago to repeat this season. In
their opening game they took things
easy and buried Indiana by a score of
"a to 0, and the following week trounced
Northwestern. Last Saturdays contest
with Iowa was won by the narrow margin
of one touchdown, long run by Pete
Russell giving the Maroons the victory.
Iowa's fighting spirit was wonderful
and they deserved better fate. Altho
outweighed five pounds to a man on the
line and fifteen pounds to man in the
backfeld they played wonderful game
both on defense and offense and had the
Maroon followers scared all of the time.
Chicago used only simple formations,
end runs, line bucks, with fake kick
or an attempted forward pass now and
then. Their attack was not as powerful
as it should have been and they were
held for downs several times. Unless
they take a decided brace Minnesota
and Illinois will take their measure and
wrest the championship away from
|sthem. However, Coach Stage will UNI
doubtedly work hard to overcome the
weaknesses which were shown in this
game and as he has wonderful material
this year he ought to have an eleven
which will fill the Windy City followers
with pride.

known that the lack of wireless facil-
tiles on the revenue cutter had con-
fused plans. When the Chester re-
ported her arrival the Winona's launch
had to make a 15-mile trip TO shore
and back again before arrangements
could be made for the presidents visit.
The president was the only source or
information concerning the confer
ence He spoke of it today only in
broad generalities, declaring that moth
ing specific had been developed and
that nothing of any definite character
occasioned the meeting. The presi-
dent asserted that he discussed no
particular plan Of action. Norman
and John Lind, Jr., returned here
from the Chester late today after five
hours with their father. They said
they obtained but little information
about the Mexican situation from their
father, adding that their conversation
was confined largely to domestic top
les. The Linds will start for their
home in Minneapolis tomorrow. Pres
ident Wilson worked in his study all
the afternoon reading documents and
writing letters. He had enjoyed a
morning of golf and seemed greatly
benefited by todays weather.

Bethel township; and that Bethel
township has not been given a just
prop ortion of the chaingang labor;
and hat even when citizens Of Bethel
township offered a cash subscription
of $4,000, they are still refused the
chaingang:
Resolved further, That we believe
more miles of road can be built with
less cost by free labor and that If
Bethel township is released from the
chaingang tax, she will take steps to
improve her roads that will be far bet
ter and cheaper than under the pres
ent plan; that the committee be elect
ed at this meeting; be instructed to
carry these resolutions before the
proper authorities, in securing release
from the chaingang tax, and in recon-
, mending plans for road Improvement
in Bethel township.

The responsibility Of the corn club
boys will be as great this year as ever.
Last year was year Of poor seasons
for corn. It does not frequently. hap
pen that one year of poor seasons Is
followed by another Of the same kind.
One hundred and twelve subscrip-
tions, including new ones and renew
ais were entered upon our books yes
terday
There is an old saying to the effect
that the first twelve days Of the year
foreshadow the weather Of the ensu-
ing twelve months. If there is any
thing to this, May yesterday and June
today, promise to be dry enough tc
suit the sandy land folks.
II it should happen that some sub
scribers who have complied with ev-
cry requirement should fail to get the
next issue of The Enquirer, we ask in
diligence The work Of correctly re-
vising the mailing list Of The Enquir
er at the beginning Of the year Is al

So far as The Enquirer Is able to
gather the new currency law has had
no appreciable effect upon business in
this community up to this time. The
banks have made no change in the
policies they have been pursuing of
taking care Of their customers, and
people who lend money at interest are
going ahead as usual. One Yorkville
business man made a loan amounting
to nearly ten thousand dollars few
days ago, and we have heard Of a
number Of other loans somewhat
smaller in amount.
There is a noticeable Stacking up in
the cotton mill business at the present
time largely because 1t is generally
believed, Of the unsettled condition Of
banking and currency. 1t is believed
that it is necessary for the business
world to go through a kind Of set
Ting down process because of chang
ed and changing conditions, and buy
ers of yarns and the like are not dis
posed to enter into contracts for too
long a time ahead. Some Of the mills
in this vicinity have orders ahead anu
others are running from hand to
mouth. 1t is generally believed that
the present unsettled condition will
hardly last longer than the first Of
February, and the business equilibri-
um may be restored even before then.
Nearly all of the local merchants,
especially the livest advertisers among
them, are steadily developing business
along parcel post lines. 1t has grown
to be a common thing on the part OF
people living at nearby postoffices or
along rural routes to order whatever
they like and have it sent by parcel
post, and the arrangement works de-
lightfully at both ends Of the line. One
Of the most serious drawbacks Is the
small orders that come from custom
ers who have no regular accounts
with requests to charge" This re-
suits in the multiplication Of small
accounts that give the business peo-
pie no end Of annoyance. About the
only way, Of course, to guard against
this is to require the customer to send
checks or stamps, or have 1t under
stood that the packages be sent c. O..
D. OF course, in the case Of people
who have regular accounts the small
ness Of an order is Of no concern, and
it is without consequence whether the
money accompanies the orders or not.

of asking the county's delegation In
the general assembly to so amend ex-
listing laws as to exempt Bethel town
ship from further tax charges on ac-
count of the support Of the chaingang
On motion of DR.. T. N. Dulin. Hon
w. B. Riddle was called to the chair
and presided throughout the proceed

The following resolutions, introduced
by DR.. Dulin, were adopted unani-

Resolved, That as a great majority OF
the qualified voters and freeholders OF
Bethel township, York county, have
signed a petition requesting the legis-
lature of South Carolina to release

The Banks Loosenina.-When the
currency bill was under discussion
and the outcome unsettled many OF
the banks of the country curtailed
business at the loans counter. This
action was not felt to an oppressive
extent in the south, but it did affect
in some measure the moving of busi-
ness The movement was not so large
as it might have been with liberal fl
nancial policy. The money sent out
for crop aid helped considerably and
it's beneficial results were manifested
in all southern financial centers. In
recent days, the Observer learns, there
is a tendency on the part of the banks
to resume the former elastic policy. In
fact, the Lowry Bank, one of the larg-
est institutions in Atlanta, is leading
the way, having resumed the loaning
of money within the past week. 1t is a
lead which no doubt will be followed
in other financial centers in the south
and will be taken as practical indi-
cation that the country feels itself on
Il safe basis and that the dreams Of
the alarmists are things Of the past

The editorial we are reproducing
from the Charleston News Of 1857 In
the Footsteps of the Fathers, is rath-
er a jarring commentary on the good
old times when politics was purer.
There may have been some rougher
talk on both sides during the recent
hearing over the proposition to inves-
tigate the Whaley election; but moth
ing more impressive was said on either
side. 1t is quite evident that II the
balance Of power between the con-
tending factions in Charleston was
purchasable in 1857, it is hardly more
so now.
