Rev. Edw. Fulenwi6er was then pre-
sented. He was glad to welcome the
students back to Newberry and to see
so many new faces. He wanted to
speak briefly on the Importance OF
meeting all the expectations of life.
Some of the advice you get, he said
to the students, you will take and some
you will not. There are always some
people somewhere expecting something
of you. The college expects something
are those who are expecting something
of you The college expects something
of you. DR.. Harms is the house father
of the college and he is expecting
something of you. And if you do not
Iisappoint him you will make him feel
good. The churches Of the town and
the town itself are expecting some
thing of you. And they have a right
to expect something.
Col w. H. Hunt, president of the
Newberry College club, was then pre-
sented. He said as ne came oyerhis mind

of DR.. Holland and his last spoken
words wishing blessing on the college.
He paid a high tribute to DR.. Holland.
He said the spirit of Dr. Holland still!

DR.. Holland could only be permitted
to look on this splendid assemblage it
would make his heart glad. He said
Newberry college had sent many men
and women into the various walks Of
life and they were leaders in their lines
of endeavor. He wanted the college
boys and girls to get acquainted with
the people and the people of Newberry
wanted to know them better.
DR.. Harms said he had been looking
over the audience to select some one
of the girl graduates to call upon for
a speech, but he did not make the call.
DR.. Cromer sent his regrets at not
being able to be present, as he was
called out of town. Rev. Albert Keiser
OF the wild and woody West, one of the
new professors, DR.. Harms said, re-
quested to be excused and promised
to talk at some future time.

Later returns from the election held
Tuesday did not materially change the
result as indicated by the earlier fig
ures, which showed majority of about
10000 for Statewide prohibition as
opposed to county option.
The last figures give a total Of 3d.
All for prohibition and 1909 against
it, majority of 20,35S.
Only two counties appear to have
gone against Statewide prohibition
Charleston, which gave a tremendous
percentage in favor Of the retention
OF the present system, and Dorchester,
which finally has given small ma
jority against Statewide prohibition.
All the other dispensary counties
Ioted for Statewide prohibition, sew
eral by sweeping majorities, and all
the dry counties went in favor of a
Statewide law, the only ones in which
the contest was in any way close being
Horny. where prohibition has slight
majority, and Berkeley, where the
vote appears too slight to count for
much.
In all, the vote probably will total
between $4,000 and $4,000 or less than
half the vote in the Democratic SEN
atorial primary last year. This, how
ever, is considerably in excess of the
normal vote at general elections

SEEKS TO BORROW
BILLION DOLLARS
THE ANGLO-FRENCH COMMISSION
WANTS BIG LOAN.
Every Cent of Sum Obtained to Be
Spent in the United States
is Plan.

New YORK, Sept. 15.-Ine present
plan of the joint Anglo-French fnan-
cial commission, it was reported to-
night, is to borrow $1,0OO,0OO,O00 in
the United States On straight British
and French government bonds without
any collateral
If this vast sum of money is OBJ
tained, it was said, it is to be spent,
to the last cent, in the United States
for wheat, cotton, meat and other COM
modities, including munitions of war.
1t will, therefore, in the opinion of
financial authorities, be classified as a
commercial loan.
Whether the neutrality of the
United States would be questioned in
case the bankers financing the loan
should accept straight British and
French government notes as security
has been given serious consideration.
1t was said fnanciers familiar with the
plan had every reason to believe Wash
ington would not interfere
Not Confirmed.
That was the unanimous opinion to-
night of many of the scores of promi-
nent bankers from New York and the
chief cities of the country who have
visited the commission during it's stay
in this city. AS to it's correctness the
members of the commission declined
70 comment.
All the commission cared to publish
as authoritative was voiced by Lord
Reading, the chairman, who said:
eve are not in position to make
statement at the present because we
are studying conditions in New York
and elsewhere in relation to American
exchange on London and Paris. We
nave received a considerable number
IF persons, prominent bankers and
ether gentlemen interested in the sta
bi;ity of exchange.
'"The one thing that is very striking
about it is that everybody is agreed on
the great importance to be attributed
to regulating the exchange so as to
provide more stable conditions.
Of Grave Danger.
"The sudden and considerable drop
in the exchange naturally disturbs and
must disturb commercial relations be-
tween the countries-the United States
and Great Britain and France-inas-
much as it makes it so difficult to see
ahead what the rate of exchange will
be; and, moreover, because naturally
it makes such a material difference in
the price to be received by the Ameri
can and the prices to be paid by the
Englishman and Frenchman.
There is a consensus Of opinion
that it is eminently desirable that some
step be made by which stability of this
exchange can be secured. You have
here in the States very large surpluses
of foodstuffs and other material which
you want to export We, on the. other
hand, want to import these goods, and
to the commercial man nothing is
more difficult than to arrange fixed
prices when there is the instability
such as We have had recently in ex-
change.
eve can not say more than that at
the present, but that generally reflects
our views on the situation

"W. F. Howard. Mayor"
MY two deputies were along the
Union county line Monday afternoon
and night and yesterday. They returned
here last night and reported nothing
unusual in the liquor situation so far
as this county is concerned After a
thorough investigation they found no
evidence as to any tiolations of the
law. My officers, Of course, had no
right or authority to go into Union
county.
! have done, as you requested, made
sn investigation of the matters COM
planned of. Perhaps some more inves-
tigation could have been made had !
the information which you had re-
ceived. If you will kindly furnish me
that information, and the sources, 1
shall be very glad to continue my in
vcstigations, and am sure that Sheriff
FAINT of Union will cooperate with me.
The liquor situation in this county,
as to the endorsements of the laws, is
exceedingly good now, as it has been
during my term Of office. l have made
it my business to enforce these laws
just as l have all the other laws. The
sentiment of the people of this county
is against the legal and the illegal sale
OF whiskey, and | haze their encour-
agement and support in keeping down
the illicit sale and handling of whiskey.
In this connection, and as sug-
gestion, l wish to say that hereafter,
when you report to me any alleged
violation of law in this county which
may be called to your attention, think
il will be we'll to keep the matter out
of the newspapers until have had
time to make an investigation and
gather evidence. Within a few hours
after your wire of the 18th instant was
handed me the fact that you had wired
me was read here in Columbia news
paper. If there were any violations OF
the liquor law going on the chances
are that it was known to the violators
that l was making an effort to catch
them, and they accordingly were more
careful to hide their work, and were
put on guard. 1t is not my purpose to
advise you as to your duties. l am
simply advising you how to help me in
carrying on mine. 1t is my experience
as an officer of the law that you can
not catch blind tigers" by advertising
the fact in the newspapers that you
are on their trail. 1t is best to attend
to these maeters quietly and without
parade
shall be glad to hear from you at
any time as to any matter in this
county, to which you think my atten-
ton should be called.

On the afternoon of the 18th instant

and take active steps at once to pre-

transporting of whiskey from Union

E?hitmire is the only town in this
County near the Union county line, and
in the past there was some trouble as
20 the transportation of liquors from
Union county to Whitmire and that

HEARS OF VIOLATION
CT LIQUOR LAWS
WIRES SHERIFF BLEASE AND
PUBLISHES TELEGRAM.
Sheriff Blease Write Governor That
He Has Been Active in Enforcing
LawS-NO Liquor on Border.

On Monday afternoon Gov. Manning
sent telegram to Sheriff Blease that
he understood that liquor was being
illegally transported from Union
county into Newberry county. At the
same time and before Sheriff Blease
had received the telegram, it was given
to the Record for publication. 1t does
seem little strange that he would
give the telegram oft for publication
before it was sent, or at the same time
It was sent, for by this, as Sheriff
Blease says, it would have the effect
of putting those on notice who were
,iolating the law and make them more
cautious if there we're any violations
CT attempt at violation. Sheriff Blease,
however, Immediately sent his depu-
ties to the Union line, but they found
no violators.
The Herald and News asked Sheriff
Blease about the telegram from the
governor and if he knew of any viola
ton, and what he had done in the mat
ter, and he gave us a copy of the let
ter ', lich he wrote the governor, which
we publish in this connection.
In the matter OF the illicit sale Of
whiskey we are sure, so far as this
county is concerned, Sheriff Blease an1
his deputies and the other officers of
the law have been very diligent, and
we do not believe there is an appreci-
able violation of the law in the county.
In fact, it would be very difficult for
even an old stager to buy any Whiskey
in Newberry, town or county.
