Smiths Bill Would Appropriate
$4,000. .OGO for Nitrate Plant.

Washington, March l4:-The Sen
ate committee on agriculture today
considered the bill proposed by Sen
ator E D Smith, of South Carolina.
which would appropriate SIS, 100000
to construc! plant for the produc-
ton of nitrate from the air. The COM
mittee was told that nitrate is in
great demand for fertilizer, especi-
ally in the South, as well as for the
manufacture of war munitions, and
that all the supply for the United
States comes from Chile, a source
that might easily be cut off by any
strong naval blockade.
The committee will meet again
Thursday, when Senator Smith will
urge a favorable report on the bill.

day afternoon under the. personal
direction of Deputy Sheriff W j

by the constables since January l
and, according to the law, were
turned over to the Sheriff for dis
position.
According to the law all seized
goods must be held for thirty days
and if no claimants then appear the
liquor must be destroyed. Since
the prohibition law went into effect,
January /, the constables under
Chief Constable S NJ Duncan have
been busy. Packages were seized
from persons taking them from the

their satisfaction that they were for
an illegal destination. More than
fifty such packages were opened and
their contents poured out Monday.
The other contraband was the result
of raids.
Mr. Duncan estimated the value of
the liquor poured out, judged by
existing prices, to be S2.090.75.
There were all kinds of whiskeys.

declaring the Anti Compact act in
imical to the farming and business
interests of the State, and urging
meetings of all commercial and
business bodies and farmers with
legislative delegations in each coun-

ality of the act, were adopted by
representative business men from
twenty-four counties in the State at
conference in the Columbia Cham
ber of Commerce rooms this after
noon.
The resolutions were adopted after
several hours of discussion by busi-
ness men who had gathered to con-
slider the situation brought about by
the withdrawal of fire insurance
companies from business in South
Carolina. Strenuous objection to
the resolutions was voiced by Repre-
sentative R B Belser, of Sumter. who
was active in the passage of the
anti-compact bill. He fought alone
and single-handed, but was over
whelmed the resolutions being adopt
ed with only his dissenting vote.

The THR!CE-A-WEEK EDITION
OF THE
NEW YORK WORLD.
Practically Daily at Price of Weekly
No Other Newspaper in the World Gives
So Much at So Low Price.

There has never been a time when a
newspaper was more needed in the
household. The great war in Europe
has now entered its second year, with
no promise of an end for long time.
These are world-shaking events, in which
the United States, willing or unwilling,
has been compelled to take part. No
intelligent person can ignore such issues.
The Presidential contest also will soon
be at hand. Already candidates for the
nomination are in the field, and the cam
paign, owing to the extraordinary char
acter of the times, will be of supreme
interest. No other newspaper will in
form you with the promptness and
cheapness of the Thrice-a-Week edition
of the New York World.
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular
subscription price is only 81. 90 per year,
and this pays for 156 papers. We offer
this uneq6aled newspaper and The
County Record together for one year
for S1.75.
The regular subscription of the two
papers is $500.

MAR. is. 1916.
Started at Last.

: At last! 1t is reported in the
daily press this morning that Amer
ican troops have crossed the Mexi.
can boundary and are now in pursuit
of that notorious bandit, Villa, and
his gray neck followers. The Ameri-
can people can rest assured that our
soldiers under General Pershing are
going to do their duty we'll, provided
they are not held under too great a
restraint by department orders. 1t
is to be hoped also by the long suf-
fering public that American troops
will not be withdrawn until Mexico
mas been freed of this fiendish cuss
and his clan.
The delay in sending troops after
Villa is lamentable, inasmuch as it
has given him an opportunity to
make his getaway unmolested. and
at this late day it's hard to tell
where he is hiding, however, we
may find consolation in the old adage
that it's better late than never.
And now that the movement against
the outlaws has started we hope the
annihilation process will soon begin
and continue until every bandit in
Mexico shall have bit the dust.
