Mr.. Bryan is looking fine and ap-

enthused over his work for peace.
While on the ride today he was rec

TO STAND PREPARED


of voting as men. Mr.. Bryan once
during the reference to prohibition
said that he did not keep up with the
local affairs of South Carolina, but
was aware of the overwhelming vote
the other day for prohibition. He
thinks that woman suffrage would
have healthy effect and referred
to the satisfaction which woman
suffrage was giving in the West,
where several states have laws al
lowing the women to. vote.
The visitor evinced much interest
in the Lutheran Seminary, the Amer
lean Lutheran Survey building, the
Methodist College for Girls and the
Chicora College for Women, noting
particularly the beautiful grounds
around this college. While passing
the Presbyterian Theological Semi
nary he was greeted by the students.
Mr.. Bryan himself is an elder in the
Presbyterian church.
Mr.. Bryan did not refer directly to
President Wilson, but from his con-
tributions to references made about
the President, it was evident that he
has the kindliest of feelings towards
the Chief Magistrate of the nation.
McLAURIN AND BRYAN.
Senator McLaurin and Colonel
Bryan exchanged "reminiscences of
the days when they were both mem
bers of the lower house Of Congress,
and the senator recalled to Mr.
Bryan that when he made his first
speech in the house on the silver
question the Nebraskan came and
took seat close by and this gave
him confidence and dissipated his
timidity. Mr.. McLaurin said that be-
fore the Chicago convention, where
Mr. Bryan won the nomination for
President by his Grown of Thorns
and Cross of Gold" speech, he had
said in an interview that the Demo-
cratic party ought to make Mr..
Bryan the standard bearer If they
wanted young, aggressive man, and
one who could win. "You are then
an original Bryan man." said the Ne
braskan with a smile. Mr.. McLaurin
said he had that interview in his
scrap book.
When it was told to Mr.. Bryan
that he probably had as many ad-
mirers in this state as any other in
proportion in the Union he made ap-
preciated references to this fact and
praised the Democratic party as the
party of the people. Mr.. Bryan said
that outside OF the first time his sub
sequent nominations as the candidate
for President on the Democratic
ticket had come from the voters
without any effort on his part.
Mr.. Bryan evinced much interest
in the State Hospital for the Insane
and the Old Soldiers Home and es-
pecially the Asylum farm.
The former secretary of state did
not once refer to politics or the in
ternational situation or to the reports
that he is considering going to Eu.
rope as an unofficial peace advocate
He talked about peace, but only IN
very general way.

POLICY is THE REVERSE.

Rock Hill Special to The State
Sept. 21.-Speaking in regard to the
charge made by John l.. McLaurin
state warehouse commissioner, that
Southern bankers are hampering the
financing of the cotton crop and try
ing to make it difficult to distribute
the marke keting of the staple, Ira b.
Dunlap, vice president and cashier
city. said: Il am satisfied that Mr..
McLaurin will not make this state
ment in regard to the banks of Rock
Hill if he is thoroughly familiar with
their attitude and with the condi-
tions prevailing in this section.
What Mr.. McLaurin says may be true
in some cases. An interview later
given out by w. p. G. Harding, in
reference to the usurious rates of in
terest charged by few banks scat
tered over the country, leads to the
conclusion that there may be in
stances in which the banks are block
ing the process of marketing, but
such is not the case in Rock Hill. The
local banks were the first in South
Carolina to announce that they
would loan money on warehouse GER
tificates at per cent. This fact was
made known by advertising in the
newspapers and this business was
solicited, so that there is absolutely
no grounds for doubling the sincerity
and good faith of the offer.
"As far as the National Union
Bank is concerned" Mr.. Dunlap con-
bank to cooperate with the farmers
We believe that large part Of the
prosperity and welfare of Rock Hill
and of the bankers and business mer
of the city is dependent upon tho
forming interests of this section, ant
we are satisfied that whatever helps
the farmers helps this bank. i dc
not believe there is a section of coun
try in the South where there is closer
cooperation between the people o
city and country than right here il
Rock Hill and our trade territory
The National Union Bank has alway.
sought to promote the welfare of tn,
farmers and hundreds of them viii
we loaned money on cotton to al
customers desiring to hold the staple
and we are still carrying some o
this cotton for our customers. Thi

of Secretary McAdoo and the au
thorities of our reserve bank and ar,
ready and willing to aid all our Gus
omers who want to hold cotton, an,

Llewellyn was wounded at the
