Cheaper Coal Predicted.

Forecast of tumble in coal prices
was made by department of justice
officials recently coincident with an
announcement of renewed activity"
in the campaign against coal prof.
teers. With production on the in
crease, prediction was made that the
coal prices would follow sugar prices
in break in the near future.
Prices have already dropped at
Baltimore, where the federal agents
started to gather evidence against al
legged combination of dealers, who
were declared to have boosted prices
through repeated resales.
A similar attack on profteers has
been ordered at Hampton Roads, one
of the largest bunkering stations on
the eastern seaboard. Complaints
have come frequently from there and
from Baltimore, it is said,
Although interior points have re-
ported exorbitant coal process in
many instances, it was stated that
the "fagrant Violations of the Le-
yer law were confined largely to the
Atlantic coast. The department will
press it's Investigations at all points.
Federal reserve board officials re
ported an impending drop also in the
coal market Their information was
that transportation conditions with
respect to coal had improved and
better distribution, therefore, was
had. The federal reserve board Of
f1cials said the empty bins, made so
by the bituminous miners strike and
later by the railroad walk-out and
later by the freight jam, were again
stocked.
Temporary conditions have han
dicapped certain sections of the coun-
try with respect to their supply with
the result, according to Mr.. Mitchell,
that higher prices have been asked.

pOLITENESS CHEAP.
We Spend Millions Every Year For it
and It's Worth Price.

To say ':please' in telegrams the
people of Canada spend S1,OOO,OOO
a year and the people of the United
States more than ten times that
amount, according to J. G. Davies,
Superintendent in Washington for the
Great Northwestern Telegraph COM
pany. He arrived at this conclusion
from study of thousands of telegrams
that have passed through his hands.
However, he says, patrons would save
very little money even if they cut out
the 'pleases." Because, he explains
in about SO cases out of 100 the
.please' is contained within the ten
word limit of the day message or the
fftv-word limit of the night letter.
80 it's the company that pays for
the please usually" he says.
'But we are glad to see it in so
many messages. 1t bespeaks courtesy
and good breeding in business, so is
use is commendable, and notice that
it's use is becoming more and more
common"
Mr.. Davies is still undecided wheth-
er the patron has more trouble con-
fning a message to the ten-word day
limit or padding it to s'get the mon
ey's worth when sending night
letter with a ffty-word limit. He
tells of one patron who wrote 'sgood
night" four times in order to get the
full count of fifty words. A woman
was sure she would have to pay the
day rate because she could not think
of enough to make up ffty-word
night letter.
But sometimes too much brevity
is bad "Some people delete SO many
propositions and articles that the
message cannot be understood" he
says. "On one occasion we had to
send four telegrams to explain one"

Clemson College, Sept. 24.-F.
L. Harkey, agent in marketing, U. S.
Bureau of Markets and Clemson Col
lege Extension Service, has just re-
turned from an official trip to Wash
ington and Baltimore. While in
Washington Mr.. Harkey asked for all
possible assistance for peanut and
sweet potato growers this season.
He was advised that the Bureau of
Markets will issue throughout this
season a weekly market report on
peanuts, which will give all possible
information on the distribution and
prices paid for this crop in the Unit
ed States. This report will also give
certain information concerning the
imported crop which should be valu-
able to the grower.
A semi-weekly report will be issued
on sweet potatoes giving prices paid
on the various markets, the number
of cars received daily and from what
points, etc.
For each of the above reports Mr..
Harkey will assist in getting in as
much local information as possible so
that we may know more about the
movement of the South Carolina
potato and peanut crop.
All growers or buyers wishing to
receive either of the above reports
should write at once to F. L. Harkey
Extension Service, Clemson College,

MAMMOTH TOBACCO
TRANSACTION RUMoRED

Springfield, Tenn, July 14.-Ob
servation of events transpiring II
leaf tobacco circles, suggests trans
actions of almost incomprehensi
BILE magnitude, and probably fa1
reaching consequences, which the
grower should survey carefully. Il
has been current talk for a number
of months that negotiations were or
with purpose of securing to the
contractors of the Italian purchase
the French purchase also. 1t is
rarely possible to trace such reports
to a definite origin Notwithstanding
they may be subsequently proven
true.
To the experienced observer,
however, such transactions invaria-
bly, suggest the same meaning
stronger entrenched position, great
er possibilities in buying, selling,
operating, elimination of competl-
ton and reduction of overhead ex-
penses, for the buying monopolles
which have already been generally
considered practically impregnable.
All this may be embodied in two sig
nificent wors. "intense concentra-
ton" And although these immense
activities may be apparently within
the pale of law, they are neverthe-
less effective in evading its intent
of unrestricted competition, which
the antitrust law contemplates.
The New York Times in an arti-
Gle of July 6, published under bold
headlines on it's front page news
item to the effect that Thos. For
tune Ryan, James B. Duke and
Geo. ]. Whelan (who were the head
and front of the old American To
bacco Co.., may buy the French
government tobacco monopoly Tor
four hundred million dollars, lnclud-
ing that great banking interests of
the United States. England, France
and Belgium might be associated
with them in such purchase. The
article indicates that eighty million
dollars has heretofore been made an
nually, and suggests that by eff
cient management this might be in
creased to one hundred and sixty
million dollars. This article further
states that it is reported these same
parties have made Overtures for the
purchase of the Italian monopoly
also, which may be the basis of the
report to the effect that contractors
of the Italian purchases Of the past
were endeavoring to secure the con-
tract for the French purchase. How
ever, it might equally be the basis
of a prediction that the French and
the Italian purchases will be consoli-
dated hereafter under the auspices
of the above mentioned group Of to-
baccO financiers.

There's the democratic ticket chosen
by the national convention after fin,
ashing all the work which it was cali
I'd together to do.
When the balloting on the forty
fourth vote had gotten to a point
where Cox had 702 votes and was rap
idly approaching the necessary two
thirds of 729, Sam B. AmidOn, Of Kan.
sas, manager of the McAdoo forces
and vice-chairman of the democratic
national committee, took the platform
and moved that the nomination of Gov.
Cox be made unanimous. Immediate
ly there was a roar from the tired and
worn delegates, which lasted for
full four minutes before Chairman
Robinson could put the question on
Amidon's motion to suspend the rules
and nominate Cox by reclamation.
Cox was nominated by reclamation
Tor the presidency, after the forty
fourth ballot in the convention had
demonstrated that he was within
reach of the two-thirds vote necessary.
When the nomination was made Cox
had 703h and 728 were needed. The
Michigan delegation was already on
Its feet to switch it's 38 votes to Cox,
30 even If the motion to give him the
nomination by reclamation had not
been made he would have had 1921
when the forty-fourth ballot was tai
lied.
Roosevelt was named by acclamar
zion in the convention after all the
other names placed in nomination for
Che place had withdrawn and asked
their respective delegations to give
Roosevelt the place without contest.
. The first cheer for the ticket, Cox
and Roosevelt" was given in the con-
Eention at 3:15.
Cox is governor Of Ohio, now serv-
9ng his third term in that office. He
mas been a representative in congress
from his state and has devoted his
spare time when not In politics to
summing several newspapers which he
owns in Ohio.
Roosevelt ls assistant secretary OF
Ghe navy and was Secretary Daniels
anainStay during the great war. He
as recognized as an executive Of great
ability and, has always been popular
figure In the politics Of his state.
When the convention took its sine
die adjournment the party leaders
generally expressed the opinion that
they had named the strongest pos
sTble ticket and were confident that
1t will make a strong bid for popu'
lar support In the November election.
Gavin McNab, leader of the Cali
Sornia democracy, believes that Cox
and Roosevelt will carry California.
he said:
"The ticket represents the best so;
Notification Of all opinion in the con-
Wention. believe 1t will be strong
aicket. It probably will win in this
state and will help Senator Phelan In
his fight for reelection"
Thomas Taggart, head of the In
diana democracy, sent message to
Gov. Cox, oOngratulating him upon
aiis nomination. He said:
''The ticket is fine. It will sweep
she country. l am confident we can
