The cotton, crop of tie South is our

Senator McLadrin then went into
the question Of selling direct from the

Gov. BleaSe in Court.
Gov. Blease appeared in court last
week for the first time since his re-
tirement from Office. The former gov
ernor has been employed in several
very important cases, the first of these
being tried at Camden last week, be-
fore Judge Wilson and a jury-6te
case of the State VS.. John Mickle,
charged with the murder of Richard
Boykin. The jury, after being out
only a snort while, returned verdict
Pof not guilty. Gov. B1ease was also
employed in another murder case at
the same term of court, which was not
called for trial.
Law Enforcement.
The local morning newspaper pub
fishes an interview with Gov. Manning
as to the enforcement of law, saying:
'tThat Gov. Manning is determined to
enforce impartially the laws of dae
State and that, with TIE support of
the people, he expects to succeed in
his program of justice in all cases
became clear yesterday in an interview
granted by the governor. The record
of his activities in recent cases was
cited. Especial stress was laid Oh

bia, to which the gogernor is giving
much attention"
The ey. tMr. Steelt, pastor of tee
Washington Street Methodist church,
preached on law enforcement yester-
day morning, mis- subject being "The
Metropolitan Club" which is located
in the city of Columbia.
AS to illegal Adviser
The correspondence between Attor
ney General Peoples and Gov. Man
ming, as the result of the demand made
by the governor that dee attorney gen.
eral appoint some one as assistant
instead of Mr.. Fred. H Dominick, be-

to the governors policies; the refusal
# the attorney general to accede to the
governors request, and the appropri-
alton of $4,000 by the legislature to
provide for legal advice for the go7-
ernor, will be readily recalled by tie
readers of The Herald and News.
In regard to this matter, the Colum-
bia State publishes the following state
ment:
81 will not appoint a legal adviser,
said Gov. Richard l. Manning yester-
day, when asked if he had decided upon
the appointee.

Northern France have just OBJ
tanned particulars of the magnificent
charge of the chasseurs d'Afrique by
which the allies retained possession
Of Albert. The Germans attacked Al

rocity. The busy industrial town was re-
duced to mass of ruins by the bonn.
bardment.
In order to dislodge the enemy 1t
was found necessary to have recourse
to vigorous counter-attack. At the
same time great masses Of German
cavalry were reported to be about
five miles from Albert.
The French staff sent forward
regiment of chasseurs d'Afrique to
meet this cavalry body. which proved
to be the Prussan dragons of the
guard The Prussians were threaten
ing the French line of communication
with Aveluy.
The gallant chasseurs, mounted
upon their little Arab steeds, ad'
vanced along the road TO Becordel.
From this point l quote from the
words Of a chasseur of the party, now
in the hospital:
We all felt as calm as possible
and we're eager to measure our
strength against the dragons of the
imperial guard At mile or two from
Las Basselle We made a halt.
The colonel turned in his saddle
looking at us all, and, rising in his
s'lrrups, waved his sword as he shout
el in voice of thunder:
Escadrons. garde a vous, pour
charger, sabre main, au trot-au galop

The bugles sounded the charge
and all the officers repeated the words
Of command.
The spirit of all the men was
splendid. We all felt this was a SUI
pTeme moment. OFF we went.

1--WE got close together and had our
horses well in hand. A great cry
went up: Charge! CHARGE
From every throat came the word,
from us all frantic hurrahs were
shouted as we bore down upon the
enemy. Indescrbable cries, the clash

of horses followed. Then began the
lust of slaughter and the groaning OF
the wounded.

 FIGHTING IN BALKANS TOMORROW

Greek soil are being rushed north ward along the Uskup railway,
 The allies hope that with the Russians attacking Bulgaria from the Black Sea, and another force of the French allies to threaten her from the south through Saloniki, that she will be kept too busy re- sisting au invasion of her own ter ritory to give any attention to Serbia.
 The allies admit that to allow the Teutons to form a juncture with the Turkish forces through Serbia and Bulgaria would greatly proloug the campaign against the DardaneIIes, and this they are de- tcrruiued to prevent at any cost.
 This is taken to mean that some ef the next greatest battles of the war will be fought on Serbian and Bulgarian soil.
