the farm. That was the only plan, in
the judgment of Mr. Kinard, by which
this Southland could come into its OWL
and be the most prosperous country
on the face of the globe. Unless the
farmer will realize the truth of this
and then act on that realization it
would be folly to hold this crop at the
present prices even. He said that he
believed if the South would do this
it would before many years be the
greatest and most Independent and the
richest secion of this great country.
The farmers have the situation in their
own hands and if they act wisely and
intelligently they will be the most in
dependent of our people.

Judge Announces Change of Venue.
News and Courier.


News and Courier.
Kinnsboro, Sept. 22.-At the opening
of the court this morning Judge Rice
announced that the case Of the State
against Jesse Morrison, James Rawls
and Ernest Isenhower, charging them
with the shooting of Sheriff A. D. Hood,
Rural Policeman Raleigh Boulware
and the negro prisoner, Jules Smith,
on the court house steps in June,
would be transferred for trial at York.
During the day a formal order was
signed by the judge directing that the
cases be tried in York county.
Solicitor Henry requested the grand
jury, who were in session, to make a
report in the matter and acquaint him
with the views Of the people, and in
their report, which was not read yes
terday, but which was made part Of
the record, they unqualifedly reported
that the cases should be tried in this
county. However, it must be stated
that few people with whom the cor
respondent has talked are of the opin-
ion that jury free from bias or pas
sion could be secured without great
difficulty, as almost every citizen seems
to have conviction either on one side
or the other.
The next session of court of general
sessions for York county convenes No
vember %, but whether these cases are
to be tried at this term has not been
determined.

BIG LOAN SCHEME
NOT YET SETTLED
ANGLO FRENCH COMMISSION
HARD AT WORK.
Anticipated Announcement of Success
of Project Deferred Until Next
Week Perhaps.

New York, Sept 22-The Anglo
French financial commissioners here
to establish a huge credit for Great
Britain and France were in session
most of the day and until late tonight
The matters discussed were not dis
closed Apparently, their nature was
unknown to American bankers who
have been conferring with the com,
mission.
Early in the day it became estab-
lished that the anticipated announce
ment Of the success Of the commits
sicn's work here would not be forth
coming today and might not be made
Ill next week. A dozen rumors sought
to tell why the expected announce
ment should have been deferred. One
was that the commission was marking
time till the cables should bring word
as to whether Russia wanted slice
of the proposed loan Another was
that the commission was rounding off
a mass of minor details.
Several American bankers .yentured
the opinion that there might be an
eleventh hour change. in the terms.
The opinion prevailed in Wall street
that the recent finding of the British
prize court in the case of American
meat cargoes had not helped the COM
missions cause among banks of the
Middle West.

Mr. JnO. NJ. kinard Says Bankers Will
Take Care of COttOn-AlWayS
Willing to Help.

Some time ago Mr.. John NJ. Kinard.
president of the Commercial bank, in
serted an advertisement in The Herald
and News offering for his bank to lend
money to the farmer on his cotto"
when stored in a warehouse at 6 Per
cent.
In talking with The Herald and News
man the other day in regard to the
statement of Mr.. McLaurin that the
Southern banks were charging a big
rate of interest, Mr. Kinard referred
to the advertisement of his bank which
had been running in the papers as refu-
tation of the statement in so far as It
might refer to his bank.
Mr.. Kinard stated that he mad al
ways stood for the uplift of the county
and the State, and in so far as he was
able had always done what he could to
that end. He was always ready to
help the producers of the wealth Of the
country and to encourage them in so
far as he could He has been loaning
money every day at six per cent on
cotton warehouse receipts. He said
that he was familiar with the banks OF
the State, and he was personally ac-
quainted with most of the bankers,
and he was satisfied that SO far as
South Carolina was concerned Mr.. Nc
Laurin was mistaken when he claimed
that the bankers of this State were
trying to keep the Northern banks from
advancing money on cotton warehouse
receipts. He said the bankers of this
State were high-toned and honorable
set of gentlemen and interested in the
betterment of the condition of the pro-
ducers of the wealth of the country,
and were always willing to help in the
unfit of the people generally. And
that they could always be depended
upon to do their duty in every time OF
stress
1t would in his opinion be a mistake
to hold all our cotton unless the farm
gers nave made up their minds to re-
sduce the acreage another year and

COURT HOUSE.
Cases Will Be Tried i'll IOrk-Grand
Jury Report Was Against Cnange
on Venue in Trial OF Tragedy

The State.
Minn:boro, Sept 21.-,A motion was
made this afternoon by counsel Tor
the defendants asking the court 10
change the place OF trial OF the cases
4gainst Jesse Morrison, James RaWl5
and Ernest Isenhower Tor the murder
ot Sheriff A. D. Hood Raleigh Boul-
ware and Jules Smith, TO another
county, and very promptly after hear
.ng the arguments OF counsel Judge
ice stated that he had no doubt that
here should lie change Of venue and
lie motion should be granted. There
.o1e, he said, he would pass an order
changing the place OF trial Of these
cases to some other county in the
State. The motion was made by J. W.
aanahan and A. l.. Castor.
All afidavits submitted in support
of the motion were in substance that
a fair and impartial jury as contem-
plated by law could not be obtained
in Fairfield county by reason Of the
fact that the vast majority of the citi-
zens had formed or expressed their
opinion in the cases.
Solicitory J. K. Henry did not op-
pose the motion, but stated that per-
;onally he desired the cases tried in
Fairfield county, to have this county
bear what shame or glory there was
to be in the cases. However, he said
there was considerable feeling, so far
IS he had been able to ascertain, on
both sides, and as his only aim in the
Eases was to secure a fair and impair
tial trial for the commonwealth and
The defendants he would leave the
natter entirely for the courts deci-
sion.
Judge Rice stated that the question
had given him much concern and that
he was satisfied there were so much
faeling and excitement in this county
that the cases should be heard else
where in a county free of passion.
Judge Rice stated that he expected to
preside over the court that tried the
cases and that he would not delegate
y 10
No announcement was made as to
where the cases are to be tried, the
judge stating that he would determine
this question later and inform counse!
Of his decision tomorrow morning.

UPPER HOUSE.
Action on Treaties and on ClOture

pOrtant Duties.
The State.

The State.
Washington, Sept 2O.-Many of the
leading senators and congressman now
in Washington believe President Will
son will call an extra session of the
senate to meet about October Is. This
extraordinary session. if called, will be
for the purpose Of considering the Co.
lombian and Nicaraguan treaties and
also to provide some form of cloture
in the senate which would ALLOW
majority to vote on any subject after
reasonable debate
There is little Democratic opposi-
ton to the two former measures, bus
when it comes to changing the rules
of the senate, which have stood for
over 100 years, many senators hesitate
to take the step. Especially is this
true in the South. Republicans have
already threatened to pass a force
bill' when they again get in power if
the rules are changed. These senator's
who are opposed to the measure call
attention to the narrow escape the
South had years ago when the Repub-
licans attempted to pass the well re-
membered force bill They contend
that to change the rules is simply
courting trouble for the South. Wheth-
er the Republicans will make any at
tempt, of course, is not known Their
threats may have been mere bluff. But
what Southern senator's rear more
than anything else just now IS the pas
sage of the Palmer child labor bill,
which would prohibit the shipment in
interstate trade of any products of
mills or factories, and in many cases
products of the soil. where child labor
has been used to produce sucn com
modify. This, it is charged, would
cause untold embarrassment to every
cotton mill manufacturing establish
ment by placing them directly under
federal inspection and control.
The Palmer bill has already passed
the house and there is no one who is
bold enough to say that the measure
will not pass the senate during the
coming session should the rules of
that body be changed In fact it is
/, s2one conclusion.
The vote to change the rules shows
lineup regardless OF politics. In many
State senators of the same political
faith will be found on opposite sides.
In North Carolina, for instance, Sen
ator Simmons, chairman of the senate
irrae, will vote for the
change, while Senator Overman, who
is chairman of the rules committee,
will fight vigorously against any
changes in the rules, which he con-

South has had to prevent Objectionable

9 9 3 9 9 9 @ 8 9 @ 9 o 9 9 9 9 9,
Ii has been always deep and un-
solved mystery to me why human kind
would so much prefer to say unkind
and unpleasant things about their
brethren than to say something nice
and good and sweet And yet it is
true, don't yer know. If one should
do something that had a suspicion of
wrong how quick and ready do even
his friends love-yes, love-to repeat
it and enlarge upon it. And if We go
on the philosophy that all our actions
are prompted by selfish moti,es | can
not explain this condition of the hui
man mind. They do it even when there
is no remote possibility of benefit to
them. On the contrary it may work
to their detriment. 1t may be that it
is the lack of a good will. But somehow
| think it is the lack of a right heart
and a Christian and charitable mind
Maybe now it is the will that brings
these things about Whatever causes
them it would be so much better and
the world would be so much better il
We were not so ready to circulate even
that which is partly true, but not to
the credit of the one upon whom it is
told. and enlarge as it is circulated.
You know, the Good Book says. "If
thou hast thought evil lay thine hand
upon thy mouth" Now what does that
mean, except thatft is an exhortation
to bride your tongue, because it is
evident that it was recognized even by
the holy writer that the tongue de-
lighted in speaking evil and in circu-
lating those things which were not
kindly. And then that Good Book says
IN another place, ga man that beareth
false witness against his neighbor is
maui, and a sword, and a sharp ar
row."

To Managers and Clerks of Election:
The returns of the election held on
September 14th have been sent by us
to the secretary of state, as required by
law. We do not know exactly when

be received. AS soon as the money
comes to US we will mail each chair

to save the managers the trouble Of

We want to thank the managers for

tion. We have found all your returns
in good shape We are glad to say
that not a vote was contested, and
there has been no complaint made to
US of any wrong doing whatever in the
election. The manner in which the
election was conducted by you is ap

that we were right in selecting the
men we did to act as managers and it
also proves that the insinuation made

Greek.
'The tongue destroys greater horde

"a lengthy tongue-an early death"
Or sometimes takes this form in

Don't let your tongue cut off your

'GThe tongue can speak word whose

Says the Chinese, "outstrips the

was reading the other day some of
the fundamental principles of the met
aphysics of morals-now don't Lbe
alarmed, for l do sometimes indulge
in such little pastime as this sort OF
reading. In fact long while ago
when l went to school l rather liked
to study mental and moral philosophy
and Believe that l should have been
a preacher. as I have said aforetime,
but | didn't feel good enough and
therefore did not apply.
But all this has nothing to do with
what | started out to say. This little
paragraph that l read on the meta
physics of morals has a little appli-
cation to what l started out to write
about, but I am afraid | will get lost
before | get through this time, but
any way l want to quote an extract,
very brief extract, from this meta
physics of morals, and | believe it is
applicable to the subject under discus
sion and that is the evil inclination of
the human heart or the human mind as
displayed in its eagerness and its de-
light in saying unkind things when it
would be just as easy and no more
labor to say kind things. But here is
the extract from the metaphysics of
morals-you know, like that express
sion, it sounds good
Nothing can possibly be conceived
in the world, or even out of it, which
can be called good without qualifca-
ton, except a Good Will. Intelligence,
wit, judgment, and the other talents
OF the mind, however they may be
named, or courage. resolution, perse-
verance, as qualities of temperament,
are undoubtedly good and desirable in
many respects, but these gifts of ma
ture may also become extremely bad
and mischievous if the will which is to
make use Of them, and which. there
fore, constitutes what is called char
acter, is not good. 1t is the same with
the gifts of fortune. Power, riches,
honour even wealth, and the general
well-being and contentment with ones
condition which is called happiness,
inspire pride, and often presumption,
If there is not a good will to correct
the influence Of these on the mind, and
with this also to rectify the whole prin-
ciple of acting and adapt it to it's end.
The sight Of being who is not adorn-
ed with single feature of a pure and
good will, enjoying unbroken prospe-
rity, can never give pleasure to an
impartial rational spectator. Thus
good will appears to. constitute the in
dispensable condition even of being
worthy of happiness" What we need
is a good will, and we would not be
bearing false witness and even repeat
ing things that are not to the credit of
our friends. Did you ever read the
proverbs on the tongue. Well here are
