Ing OF all but a few minor cases which

shot and killed Otto Garrett, colored,
few days before, returned a verdict
OF not guilty and Mr.. Wood was dis
charged. Mr.. Wood, testifying in his

him and made a move as If he was
drawing pistol to shoot.

AT the last session Of the General
Assembly Joint resolution was pass
cd to provide for a memorial TO thc
men and women of the State of South
carolina who rendered service in win
ming the world war for human liberty.
The act creates two commissions and
TWO memorial buildings shall be erect
ed upon the State-ownod property
one at Columbia and one at Orange
burg. The memorial building for the
white men and women who participat
ed in the great war is to be erected
upon the grounds owned by the State
and held by the Trustees of the Uni
Vcrsity of South Carolina The Act
provides that the memorial building
snail be of architectural beauty and
appropriateness. and shall be design
ed as a memorial chapel building. It.
is also provided in the Act "'That said
memorial buildings shall preserve in
marble or bronze or other impcrish-
able form the names Of all South
Carolnians, whether soldiers, sailors,
nurses, or other workers in the cause
or victory, who have offered their
lives as the supreme sacrifice in the
winning of the war; and said build
ings shall be the repository Of books,
manuscripts and other records Of the
history Of the war and its purposes

lie urged the formation OF the cotton
association before attempting to build
the warehouses. He said that Spar
lanburs county was already largely
organized and that he wanted to see
the fever spread to Laurens, thence to
Greenwood and then onward over the
entire state and entire South.
Gov. Cooper, who spoke last, dwell
particularly upon the educational ben
cfits to be derived from southern pros
perlty. He said that If money alone
was the goal Of the cotton association,
then the association would not sue
coed. llc saw in the elimination OF
| the associations plans larger and
better home life in the South, where
the children would be enabled to go to
school and the women be spared the
, drudgery of field work. Low price
cotton, he said, meant the continued
cnslavcmcnt Of women and children
on the farm, while fair price for
cotton meant that the children would
be educated and the heavy work be
left TO men alone.
The advantages Of organization :"
said Gov. Cooper, "have been so often
demonstrated that no argument is
necessary. want to see the day in
South Carolina when our peoplc shall
be not only organized, but organized
for very definite urpose; that Is to
increase the happiness Of all the peo-
pie; to improve their standards Of liv-

tractive. With this purpose we have
an incentive to go forward.
"The present world wide unrest is
due in the final analysis to ignorance
1t is due to the fact that the average
man has been circumscribed and
handicapped. He has not had an op-
portunity for self expression. would
like to see this state prosper material
