FARMERS WILL
RECEIVE FAIR
COTTON PRICES

The Americas cotton market has not
sustained any jolt as the result of the
cotton contraband order which has
just become effective The market held
steadily today, as on yesterday, and
while spot sales are a shade lower
than a week ago local buyers are still
offering eight cents or better for fine
cotton, and the probability is that
prices will continue steady around
that figure, even if an unexpected
sharp advance does not result.
In business circles there is feel
ing of decided optimison, and with cot
ton selling at anything like a fair
price there is going to be general adj
vance from present levels.
The crop this year was made at less
cost than any crop in previous years,
and conditions even now are far bet
ter than at this date year ago when
the unexpected clash of arms paralyz-
ed business, and cotton went begging.
Last August and during the fall, it
could scarcely be sold at any price.
Today bale sells readily for $35 to
$45, according to grade, and the prob
ability is that a very much higher
range of values will be attained.
Recent rains have benefited tn.
cotton crop in this section vastly, and
the total output will be much larger
than has been expected.

and the ardent expression of their
sense of brotherhood towards those
Frenchmen who live in the territory
occupied by the enemy, and who by
their courage, their dignity, their suf-
fering-often their martyrdom, keep
the soul of France safe from any in
yasion. Morning and evening, thu
dearest wishes of the children of
France would fly to them as witness
that the free portions of the nation
suffer in equal measure of their servi-
tude, and that there is not one French
man who is not ready to make every
sacrifice for their deliverance as soon
as possible, whence indeed depends the
safety of the Fatherland.
"The second idea would be to send
in the form of a pious salutation to the
dead whose blood has impregnated vic
tory and whose heroic bodies, united
at last in the glorious sepulchre of the
Fields Of France, form along the whole
front the guard of honor of France.
The children Of France would swear
to exalt in their hearts and never to
forget their sublime example.
Thus by the daily repetition of two
simple; necessary ideas, the reason,
the sentiment and the conscience of
all the children of France could be
raised to the moral level of a our won
derful soldiers, who every day are
fighting and dying for the triumph OF
France and of civilization"

ENTIRE FIELDS
HAY OEvOURED
BY GRASSWORMs
THIRTY ACRES DEyASTED ON TIKI
COUNCIL FARM.

Sumter county's hay crop is serious
ly threatened just now by an army of
worms, commonly called grassworms,
which are devastating large areas Of
hay on plantations here. The worms
come in myriad numbers and gener
ally chew up a field of hay in day or
two, when they move on to devas-
tate other areas. On the farm of Mr..
Barlow Council near Americas a fine
field of thirty acres has been attacked,
the worms first eating the native grass
and then attacking the peavines
planted for hay. In this way they are
cutting wide swathe across Sumter
county and their ravages will greatly
reduce the hay yield, unless another
crop of grass grows up after the
army of worms move on.

The letter sent out yesterday is be-
lieved to have moved the girl to send
the telegram.
Since Miss Guidone disappeared DO,
lice all over New England have been
searching for her, but no clew was
found until the message came today.
Her parents knew of no reason WHY
she should drop out of sight volun-
tarily.

WANT CHILDREN TAUGHT
PATRIOTISM IN FRANCE

PARIS, Aug. 24.-Municipal Coun-
sellor Louis Dausset, in a Commence
ment Day address at co-educational
school, held in the building of the ma
tiOnal school of Arts and Crafts, pro-
posed that in every school in France
the teachers should have the pupils re-
peat at the opening of every days
classes, like an old-fashioned prayer,
a formula which might be looked upon
as an act of faith and patriotic hope
everywhere the same
Someone among our writer's" he
said, could conceive brief text which
by being adopted by the government
could become official.
This simple formula should embody
two cardinal ideas-the first should be
for use until the final freeing of the
invaded regions of France, and the
second could renal unchanged, even
after the war.

would turn their quickened memories

DEMOCRATS ON
REGISTER LIST
ELECTION FOR TREASURER WILL
BE SPIRITED.

Nineteen hundred democratic voters
of Sumter will be qualified to cast a
ballot in the special election called for
September 18th to fill the vacancy ex-
listing in the office of the county treas
urer, and while it is altogether prob
able that this office, long regarded as
wholly needless, will be abolished 3
year hence, nearly half score able
candidates are in the race for the job
of year, at least, and which pays the
fancy salary of $4,000.
More than 1900 voters are register
ed and qualified already, Tax Collector
l. B. Small said today, and the few ell /.
igible voters not yet upon the list will
get upon it today, thus swelling the
voting strength to 1900.
This is near a full registration, as
Sumter county usually votes between
1900 and 1000 ballot in a democratic
primary,
The candidates who are willing to
serve Sumter as keeper of the wam-
pun are Messers. A. E. Lockett, John
Ed Chapman, Henry R. Johnson, Geo.
D. Jones, Charles c. Sheppard, H. D.
Watts, S. H. Young and ]. Day Stewart
There may be others still, but even
eight starters in the race will make il
worth while.
With the county vote split among
the candidates, it is hard TO forecast
the result, and right now the most
astute politician refuses to pick the
winner.
AS stated already another determin-
ed effort will be made year hence to
abolish this useless and very expens-
| ibe office, but the winner in the cleo
tion of September 18th will hold the
coveted job one good long year, and
receive $4,000 for doing very little
| work as treasurer. Half the counties
of Georgia are getting rid if this need
| less office and Sumter, with depleted
| treasury, should do likewise.
With so many candidates running
| for the office a full vote on election
day is assured.

HONEST INSPECTOR
NOT ENCOURAGED
Local Juries Won't Convict, Says
Mrs. Florence Kelley.
SHE WANTS A FEDERAL LAW.

Cn1lQ laDOf laws VIII not De enforced
until there is a federal law which the
government will enforce. So Mrs.
Florence Kelley told the Eleventh An
nual Conference on Child Labor at its
recent San Francisco meeting. During
her wide and varied experience Mrs.
Kelley hrs accumulated many exam
pies of why a state child labor law
can never be properly enforced and
why the federal government must take
a hand in it.
After q state child labor law is on
the statute books the difficulties of the
inspectors are only part of the obsta
cles that confront the state in getting
that law enforced. If an inspector
works very hard he is commonly re-
moved-that is, If he works hard and
honestly and ably. have watched in
spectors working hard. honestly and
ably being removed for thirty-three
years. One who does not work hard
andAebly and honestly will probably be
removed anyhow when the politics of
the state changes.
While the inspector is working hard.
ably and honestly it is exceedingly diff
fcult to get law enforced, if prosecu-
ton is required, because local magis-
trates are usually reluctant to enforce
it and local juries to uphold it. Some
years ago we were prosecuting in Chi
cago a certain sweater who had en-
ployed sixteen girls illegally. A dozen
witnesses were subpoenaed, and they
all swore cheerfully that the law had
been kept, although they knew that
they had been working illegally that
day.
1.-THE justice thought 1t merry jest
that we could not get warrants against
those perjured witnesses. He said, If
l were going to choke my Office up
with perjury suits against witnesses
In minor cases we would not get any
business DONE SO those perjured wit
nesses went scot free"
AS further illustration Mrs. Kelley
spoke Of the difficulty the New York
State Department of Labor has expert
enced In the past two years in prose
cutting Gamers. The trouble was not
with perjured witnesses there, but with
local juries. The local juries would
not convict because most of them were
farmers who sell their goods to the
canneries and had no idea of partici-
pating in the punishment of their GUS
TONER'S THAT condition is so wide
spread throughout New York, New Jer-
sey, Maryland and Delaware" said
Mrs. Kelley, that there is no present
hope Of enforcing the child labor law
in the canneries of those states with
local jurors in local courts.
~ do not share the mtllennial belief
that we shall in any near future have
our laws obeyed by the agreement of
employers and employees in industries
in which the employees are inorganic
ed. Laws are obeyed only where there
are powerful organizations of workers
to compel obedience. But where there
is body Of helpless aliens, as in most
sweated industries, or in remote vii
| lagos far from the searchlight 1t will
take a great deal of evidence to con-
vince me that all employers will vol
UNFAIRLY obey the child labor law. Our
immediate need is the passage of a
federal child labor law to enable the
federal government to enforce the
| law"
