ISSUE PERMITS FOR
LIQUOR As USUAL

Columbia, Juiy 2.-"Issue liq@oI
~ hereto2o,2.'
Such was the vii sent number
Of South Carolina judge. OF probate
toiay by Assistant Attorney General
Claud N. Snapp, IN response to in
quiries as to whether they should con-
tinue to issue permits for the medi-
cinial quart per month. in view of the
fact that the federal law became op-
erative yesterday.
AS has several times been pointed
out. the federal law does not affect
South Carolina, for the reason that
the quart-a-month act permits ship
ments only for medicinal, secramental,
or scientific purposes, which are al
lowed oy the federal statute; and un-
der the South Carolina law the sick
may continue to get their liquor and
to alleviate their suffering.

New Set Of Robbers.

Rock Hill Record.
1t will doubtless come as snocA
ia the people of South Carolina to
learn that a new gang of insurance
robbers has begun business in Colum-
bia. succeeding the late notorious
Southeastern Tariff Association, un-
der the name of the South Carolina
Inspection and Rating Bureau. They
are doubtless the same old robbers
under a new name This aggregation
has issued a circular letter to the
various agents showing ali increase
in rates of nearly so per cent.
What are the people of South Caro-
lima going to do about it? They were
robbed for years by the former ag-
creation of robbers, but the people
finally revolted and drove the robbers
out of the State. We hope. the peo-
nle will repeat the process with this
new gang.

Yorkville Enquirer.
Now comes the information through
Commissioner McMaster that iisur.
ance rates are to be increased and il
is about as expected.
John L. McLaurin got greatly re-
duced rates on cotton W ears ago
The insurance people A ed and tried
to put him out of busi- le fought
back and ran the Southe tern Tariff
association out of the state. He thied
to follow that up with a state insur-
ance system that would make proper
ty owners of South Carolina inde-
pendent of the insurance trust. Here,
however, the insurance people
brought pressure on the powers that
be and the plan failed.
The insurance people, or quite a
number of them, withdrew from the
state. In accordance with time-tes-
ted procedure, they left enough COM
panies IL the state to take care of such
individuals as promised to become
dangerous in case they could not get
insurance These were annoyed as to
rates and conditions; but care was ta-
ken not to aggravate them to the point
of actual rebellion. Indeed some
were baited sufficiently to keep them
quiet.
At the last session of the general
assembly it was not a great deal of
trouble to have the insurance laws re-
vised to suit the notion of the COM
panies. In some respects these laws
put the people more at the mercy OF
the insurance companies than here
tofore
Now we al. told that rates are to
be increased and the public will not
be wrong if it assumes that from no"
on the insurance companies will treat
it just as they please.
The only remedy for the situation
the only remedy that will give the
people fair deal in >insurance-is
state control and operation of the bu-
siness. But that is not likely. The
people at interest ade too trusting and
to easily deceived. and amongst tiose
whose duty it is to stand for the
rights of the public-their friends and
neighbors-there are too many
who prefer to serve big business.
Having by hook and crook, licked
the people of South Carolina to a
frazzle, of course the insurance folks
now have no other idea than to make
the people of South Carolina pay.

Hogs and More Hogs.

Washington, July q The praise
OF the hog as a meat producing an
animal to raise for meat and money,
agriculture i'm an appeal today to
farmers to raise hogs, hogs and still
more hogs as the quickest and surest
way of increasing the nations meat
supply.

sThe hog is the most important
animal to raise for meat and oney,
the statement says. "He requires less
labor, less equipment, less capital

OF concentrates and reproduces him.
self faster and in greater number
than any other domestic animal AS
a consumer of by-products the hog
has no rival. No other animal equals
the lard hog in its fat-storing tend
encv. There is no animal which pro.
duces more meat and more profit
than the hog.
Very nearly 80 per cent Of the
value in dollars and cents in the mea'
and meat products slaughtered in the
packing house of the United States
is derived from the hog. Three
fourths of the worlds internationa
trade in pork and pork products ori
g;nates in the United States in nor
NAL times. and the war greatly ha:
increased this proportion"
The statement then points out tha
there was a decrease of $4,000 hog
at the end of 1916 compared with tn
previous year, and adds: If we eX
nect to continue to provide meat &
foreign peoples as we'll as Our Owl
people. every farmer must put fortl
the best effort to produce more hogs.
