pressed on the committee, who will
visit the planters again.
Fish Pond-Everybody is in fa-
vor of the reduction. No one will
plant more than ten acres to the
plow. These people live at home
and plant very little cotton. The
committeeman told of one farmer
who runs nine plows and plants only
eight acres to the nine plows. Great
quantities of foodstuffs produced
here. Majority now plant six acres
or less per plow. The committee
were asked to visit the farmers
again and induce them to sign the
pledge, either for one-third reduc-
tion or according to the schedule.
Brier Creek-Farmers are enthu-
siastic over the plan, but are inclin-
ed to the belief that the big fish
are the ones who ought to do most
of the cutting. However, no one
has refused to sign up.
Midway-Not all of the farmers
have signed. Many of them want a
limit of ten acres to the plow fixed
for all planters. About the same
amount of fertilizer will be used.
Lees-This committee worked with
the Denmark committee, and practi-
cally every farmer has signed the
pledge.
Clear Pond-The territory has
been visited partially. Committee
do not think any will refuse to re-
duce.

A very significant election. for con-
gresham was held in the twenty-sec-
ond Pennsylvania congressional dis
trict recently, in which John. w
Wilson, Democrat, was elected. 1t
is Interesting to note that this is the
first time in fifty years a Democrat
has been elected in this district. In
the three previous elections, Repub-
Hcans were elected by the following
majorities: 1000, 5000, 1000. 1t
will be noted that each election re-
suited in larger Republican vote
than the preceding one. But in the
last election Wilson was elected by a
majority of 473 votes. 1t is further
interesting to note the platform of
the successful candidate, Wilson.
He openly championed the cause of
the League of Nations as favored by
President Wilson. His opponent did
not champion the League, but simply
said, when pressed for an opinion,
that he would follow the dictates of
his party, whatever they were. 1t
would, of course, be useless to say
that Mr.. Wilson's election was due
to his championship of the League of
Nations, for we all know we'll enough
that personality counts sometimes
more than platforms; but it is inter
esting from the standpoint of Repub-
Hcans changing over to Democrats in
in a rock-ribbed Republican district.
1t perhaps requires something more
than personality to cause that.

The total casualties, according to
a revised report just issued, are 240,-
1877. Some of the American divisions
carried enormous casualties; for in
stance, the second (regular) divis-
ion suffered 24,429 casualties; the
first, (regular) division, 1894, ana
the third (regular) division, 1886.
The divisions in which South Caro-
linians were employed, suffered
losses as follows: Thirtieth, 6,S93;
Ninety-second (colored), 1899;
Eighty-first, 1862.

Thursday, March 13, 1919.

On account of the attitude of the
Republicans in the closing days OF
congress, no legislation was passed
providing for the regular army. AS
a consequence the war department
announces that it is necessary to de-
tain about 100000 drafted men il
service until congress does make such
provision. If this is the beginning OF
Republican control of congress, such
control cannot be disposed of too
soon.

ed that the big farmers are in
line. and so far only one planter in
this section has absolutely refused
to sign the pledge. Some of the far
mers agreed to reduce in various
percentages, but the reduction will
average about 25 per cent.
Olar-Reductio in this section
was reported as high as rs per cent,
and many reductions from 40 per
cent up were reported Ninety per
cent. of the farmers will sign the
pledge.
The matter of the merchants and
bankers cooperating was brought up,
and the Denmark committee report
ed that a petition had been signed
by all the Denmark business men
except one agreeing to use all influ-
ence possible with their customers
to get them to reduce their acreage
The matter of the renter who has
to pay his rent in cotton was also
discussed Some of the committees
had run up against this proposition.
When a farmer has to pay his land
lord so many bales of cotton rent,
what is he to do about cutting his
acreage? 1t was the general opin-
ion of the committeeman that land
lords should be visited by the COM
mittees and induce them to agree to
the tenant reducing his acreage, and
also agreeing to accept as rent other

According to recent report, 81
American army Y. NJ. C. A. workers
have sacrificed their lives in Europe.
About twenty of these were killed by
shell fire or other battle causes, the
others dying from disease While
we think that there are some phases
of the Y. NJ. C. A. work that has not
been entirely above criticism, it can
not be said that the workers shirked
any duty or evaded any danger in
ministering to the soldiers in Europe.
