The Law Against Mergers.

"The power OF corporations had be-
come so great that in the constitution
of 1895, article 8, section 13, it was pro-
vided that the general assembly shall
enact laws to prevent all trusts, COM
binations, contracts and agreements
against the public welfare, and to pre-
vent abuses, unjust discrimination
and extortion," etc. Now want to
call your attention TO the statement
made by a member Of the federal re-
serve board in Washington, from the
records of the comptroller of the cur
rency, showing that there were banks
in South Carolina charging as high as
twenty per cent interest last year, and
that the average rate of interest in
South Carolina is around fifteen per
cent. Is this section of the constitu.
ton a part of the claw and order"
propaganda, or is claw and order" only
to be applied to few blind tigers in
the city of Charleston, and not to the
millions of Robertson, inherited from
negro rule in South Carolina and in
creased by the purchase CD of the
Columbia canal? What is the differ
ence in the sight of God between the
burglar VINO blows open a safe and
steals money, and the smooth, fat
jowled banker who catches me hard
up and violates the law by charging
me usurious interest? If society con-
dones this criminal who sits in the
amen corner" Of the church, why
should not I, as governor of the State,
have been merciful towards the igno-
rant criminal who committed a crime
oftimes to feed his hungary wife and
children? There ought to be law
which would punish the rich criminal
as we'll as the poor criminal. I said
there ought to be law. And there
is law. 1t ought to be enforced, and
then maybe We would have some real
claw and order instead of the smirk-
ing. hypocritical pretense. I am curl

Corporation Warehouses Fear Suite
System.
Proof of this is shown in the very
call made for this great merger meet
ing in Columbia, in which the South
Carolina State warehouse system is di-
rectly mentioned as the reason-or, at
least, the foremost reason-for the
call. Common sense shows to you, ny
fellow citizens, tnat the entire effort is
to force the farmers to store their cot
ton in central warehouses in Columbia,
Charleston, Augusta, Atlanta and other
Southern cities, instead Of storing it,
as now, on their farms and in nearby
towns, thereby forcing the farmers to
pay freight on their cotton to these
great centralized merger-owned ware
houses, to pay nigh storage rates, high
insurance to the insurance trust which
McLaurin has broken into, and COM
pelling them to place their cotton in
the hands of the banks from which
they borrow money. For, just as GER
tain as you allow this merger to sue
ceed and permit the State warehouse
system to fail, certain banks-Robert-
sons, in Columbia, in particular-will
be the head distributing centers, just
as Robertson's now is for the Standard
warehouse, and you will be forced 10
place your cotton in their hands, and
it would not surprise me when this
is done if, when a rise in the price
of cotton takes place, they would un-
load your cotton which they are hold
ing in their warehouses to the mills,
and when the price goes back down
replace it with low-priced cotton,
which will be forced upon you when
you call for it with your receipt. Any
man can see this who studies the situ-
alton and knows it, and who under
stands the system of the fnanciers of
New York and of the South in the
handling of the cotton crop. There
are others wiser than l, but am
willing. to stake whatever reputation
I have in reference to matters of policy
in the handling of the State govern
ment upon the prediction which l make
to you today. l can, without boasting,
but merely in passing, call your atten-

News and Courier.
Columbia, Oct. THE formation Of
big warehouse corporation by merg-
ing the Standard Warehouse company
OF Columbia, and South Atlantic Ware
house company of Augusta, Ca, is now
being considered, it became known
here today. The idea is to have a
company with capital of $1,000,000,
and to extend the warehouse system
throughout Georgia and South Caro-
lima and possibly over the entire cot
ton belt. If the proposition goes
through it is said that warehouses to
store thousands Of bales of cotton may
be built at principal points in the two
States.
The proposition for the merger came
from the Augusta company to the
Standard Warehouse company here,
financial representative of the Augusta
company having come here from New
York with the proposition. 1t is under
stood that at meeting Of those in
terested here today committee was
named to take up the matter with the
stockholders. The new company, if
formed, will buy up the stock of the
local company, it is stated.
The proposed warehouse concern
would be gigantic affair, one of the
biggest private corporations in the
South. They propose to negotiate
loans on warehouse :Geceipts for cot
ton stored with them at a low rate of
interest. :.
State Warehouse Commissioner John
L. McLaurin thinks this private ware
house concern is forming to combat
the State warehouse. In statement
issued here tonight he said:
.d.o McLaurin's Statement.
There vas a meeting in this city
today Of owners of standard ware
houses in this State and Georgia to
form a huge combination to mead off
the State warehouse system. have
IN my possession a copy of the letter
calling this meeting at the instance of
large capitalists. They do not permit
the farmer to store his cotton where
it was grown, and they call specific
attention to the danger to their inter-
ests of the South Carolina State ware
house system. Whether this conspiracy
of class whom Roosevelt described as
"nalefactors of great wealth" will de-
stroy what has been done depends on
the people. l have no millions TO

in, the people" ia~
T. B. Stackhouse is president of the

Barrett is. head of the South Atlantic
Warehouse company. The rumor that
If the merger goes through that Mr..
Barrett would move to Columbia and
head this branch was denied tonight
by an official of the Standard Ware.
house company, who said that Mr..
Stackhouse on yesterday was re-elect-
ed president for another year.
Few details of the proposed ware
house merger could be obtained, for it
was stated that the Standard ware
house had not yet given definite an
swer to the Augusta people.
Senator McLaurin said tonight that
the plan of the State warehouse sys-
tenn had all along been to build big
concentration warehouse at Charles
ton, where the cotton would be collect
ed for export. The new private ware
house company, if formed, may also
build a big warehouse at Charleston.
