BOARD OF TRADE REPLIES
To Recent Communication OF Mr.. ". h
Mcintosh.
Editor County Record

Editor County Record
Please permit us through your
valuable paper to reply to the TRADE
of w K Mcintosh on the action of
the Board of Trade of Kingstree in
asking the warehousemen of the
town to furnish all the tobacco seed
this season to the tobacco growers.
This action of our board was care
fully considered, and in view of the
fact that we have for several years
spent our money literally in both
seed and advertising. we thought it
advisable this time to push our town
more specifically as a market, with
vigorous advertisement, at the same
time encouraging our warehouse
men in doing what they should
rightfully, justly and willingly do
in furnishing seed to the growers.
Who is this Mr. Mcintosh, and
from whence does he come, that he
should dictate to the Board of Trade
of Kingstree? He is certainly not
one of our business men, because
our business men belong to the
Board of Trade and the proprietors
of the Nelson Warehouse do not ap-
pear on our book of membership.
We believe there was some little re-
quest from this same source in your
valuable paper some weeks ago ask
ing that the board be called to-
gether that he might express him.
self.
We do not object to his finding
out that the board really met, but if
he desires to work up some noto-
riety for the Nelson Warehouse by
airing his arrogant views of criti-
.cism on the action of the Board
of Trade, we object to this and can

iidly We will not stand for it.

We do not dictate to the tobacco
grower how he shall get his seed,
because the Board of Trade does not
come in direct touch with him, but
we feel his interest and have said to
the warehousemen of our town, you
should furnish these seed to the
grower, because this is the custom.
If the Nelson Warehouse had not
furnished any seed during the past
years, the tobacco growers would
not have known the difference and
would have gotten their seed just
the same and perhaps our market
would have been better-iarger and
stronger today and perhaps these
howls would be heard in some more
distant cline where great big
mouths and long tongues would be
less annoying.
The Nelson Warehouse admits hav-
ing controlled the market for three
years and it is plainly seen and
known that they are inclined to con-
tinue doing so. but they can't fool
all the people all the time. If they
can't stand the expense of a few
pounds of seed along with other
warehouses that are now giving out
all the free seed the tobacco growers
need, then let them get out Of the
business and give place to men who
talk less and do more.
We have the data showing what
the town has spent on the advertise
ment of our tobacco market, and
there is skeleton in the closet
showing what others nave done
against the market in their own in
terest. A hint to the wise is suf-
ficient.
We understand that the town OF
Hemingway has done we'll and the
credit belongs to men who have more
brains than mouth. Hemingway is
indeed fortunate in having no don
key in her team that pulls for her
business. 1t is the purpose of the
Board of Trade of Kingstree to
make our tobacco market the best
in the State this season, and with
exception of the braying Of a few
donkeys we think we shall find no
real hindrance in doing so.

met with failure. Colonel E. NJ.
House, the presidents personal EN-
issary. leaves Berlin for Switzerland
tomorrow convinced that for the
present peace is out of the question,
learn authoritatively that he was
sent by the president to sound the
warning governments and learn
through informal interviews whether
there was possibility of truce and
peace conference before the spring
campaigns opened. House has been
told there was no possibility Of a
peace compromise.
House conferred with Sir Edward
Grey. the British foreign minister
and Premier Viviani of France and
finally with the German secretary of
foreign affairs, Won Jagow. 1t was
reported in diplomatic circles that
Grey was disposed to look upon the
suggestion for conference between
the warning nations with favor. The
presidents emissary brought that
word to Berlin, but while House was
engaged with the German officials,
Grey delivered bitter attack upon
Germany in public lecture at Lon
Ion. He assured his hearers, accord
ing to reports published here. that
the allies were determined to crush
Germany at any cost. Grey's speech
knocked any lingering chances for
peace into a cooked hat.

young man who died here Thursday

wheels of a passenger train early
that morning below Pendleton, van

Rock Wash, arrived and recognized
in the deceased his 1s year old son
whom he thought at work in a shin.
gle mill near his home, Before death
the young man had given his name as
William Pearson and his home as
Castle Rock, but yesterday a man
giving the name of Archie Davis
looked at the body and declared II
was that of a youth named Myers
living at Castle Rock.
This led to some confusion and de-
lay in reaching Mr.. Pearson with q
message The telegram reached Mr..
Pearson and his wife about the same
time that did a letter which had been
written by the young man a few days
ago and mailed in Idaho. That was
their first. knowledge that he was not
at the shingle mill where he had been
working. Mr. Pearson took the first
train to Pendleton, arriving here at
2:4O. and his worst fears were con-
firmed when he called at the under
taking parlors.
He declares the boy was evidently
enticed away from Castle Rock by an
older man and thinks he was on his
way home when he fell from the
trucks of the car upon which he was
riding He is heartbroken over the
tragic happening,
An inquest is being held this after
noon over the body and at $3.50 the
funeral will be held in the Brown
chapel with Rev. 7. f. Weaver OF the
