March falling to 37.11 Ginning re-
turns to January 16 of 10.822,14S bales
were heavier than expected and there
was free selling on the report that the
federal reserve discount rate had been
raised to 6 per cent Gables were
better than due and the weather map
was unfavorable because it Indicated
altogether too much rain in the belt
but bullish features merely served
to steady the market at the decline.
The decline continued in a hesitating
way until late in the morning the
trading months We're 80 to 40 points
under the final prices Of yesterday.
Offerings appeared to come mainly
from short sellers, although there was
more or less selling for long account,
longs bring induced TO let so by high
er money rates. March at the lowest
levels traded ar $500.
The decline was checked by reports
from Texas and that heavy rains
would delay farm work in preparation
for the new crop for another month.
The market commenced to do better
and at / o'clock heavy buying was
under way on reports that spot firms
in the interior who We're short or the
better grades were paying large sums
to be released Of their contracts with
the trading months standing to IL

New York, jan 3.-The advance
in discount rates. slightly larger gin
ming figures than expected and the
circulation of a few January notices
led to considerable scattered selling
or liquidation in the cotton market
during today's early trading. The
opening was steady at an advance OF
; points on January but generally 3
to 20 points lower Notwithstanding
higher cables and some further buying
on reports of better prospects for ear
". action on the peace treaty. The de-
mand was much less active than ii
was late yesterday, however, and
prices soon turned easier with March
selling at 1895 and July 1895 or about
% to 80 points net lower. The Janu-
airy notices We're estimated at about
goo bales and the price declined TO
37.S5 but there was not much bust
ness.

brought the snow has caused all oul
people who haxe sleighs to bring
them out and now our town is alive
with the merry jingle of the bells.
Monday of last week was mostly a
cloudy day and many people wonder
ed whether the ground hog saw his
shadow since there was so little OF
sunshine during the day. But, truly
we think there need be no further
doubt at this point for the winter con-
tinues unabated.

They are talking about running
Thos. S. Sease for congress from the
fourth district to succeed Sam
Nichcls who declines to serve any
longer. We agree most heartily with
the News and Courier that if they
should send Judge Sease to congress
it would deprive the bench OF the
state of one Of the best and ablest
of the circuit judges, but then Judge
Sease could function just as well IN
congress as on the bench and we
rather think possibly better, because
it would be ina forum much more to
his tastes and training. Yes, come
along judge, and make the race Tor
CONGRESS. We will cast what votes
we, can for you down this way and
deaden all the timber along the lne'
if it should need any attention, but
we rather suspect that everything
would be all right along this way.

TWO PRISONERS TAKE SHORT
VACATION FROM JAIL

Two prisoners in the county jail
took a brief respite from the prison
on Monday night or Tuesday morn
ing. They seemed anxious to have
the opportunity to spend a longer
term in prison, as the first thing they
did on making their get away was to
break in two stores in Newberry:: The
prisoners were TRUSTEES, having only
Short sentences, and Jailer Sanders
who has been sick with the flu and

decided to go to his home at Oak
land for the night, and in leaving the
Jail did not secure the outer doors,
and during the night the, young pris-
oners made their exit only to get
back after short respite. They
were apprehended by Policemen
Cousins and Livingston while in the
store of 4. P. BooZer.

Friday, April 2, 1920.

Every citizen interested in the well
fare of this town and county should
attend the meeting called for Friday
night to consider the organization of
a chamber of commerce. And that
should include every one of us. In
this age when town reaches the
proportions of Newberry some sort of
commercial organization to look after
the interests of the community is al
most necessity and that means that
it is necessary to employ man train
ed for the work to give his time to
the chamber of commerce, and that
line is now just as much a profession
as the law or medicine or any other
And to get such man will take
money, but the money invested Will
be we'll invested. Attend the meeting
and manifest your interest in your
community.

CASH AND COOPERATION

Clemson College, March 3l.-A
fine example Of what can be accom-
plished by farmers who have reached
the greatly to be desired stage Of
operating on cash basis and who be-
lieve in team work is found in a re
cent report from County Agent T.
NJ. Mills of Newberry county, who,
reports that recently he met with Z
farmers and a representative Of a
farm machinery company for the pur-
pose OF aiding them in buying farm
machinery comparatively. The results
of the meeting were five grain bindef
and on riding cultivator bought COZ
operatively and for cash at saving
to the farmers of about S125. This is
good days work for the count
agent as we'll as for the 7 farmers1
''The farmers of Newberry coun-
ty," says Mr.. Mills, "are on a cash
basis and are learning every day
more and more the value Of cooper
ation."

WHY?

We noticed the other day IAN ar
ticle or an interview with Senator
Christensen, whom we believe is a
member of commission appointed
by the last legislature, to find some
other property to be placed on the
tax books so that taxes may not be
increased. And he asked the ques-
tion why pay the other fellows
taxes. The answer being that you
are paying the other fellows taxes
because his property is escaping tax
alton by not being on the books, or
if on at too low a rate of assess
ment.
We have no doubt that there is
property that is escaping taxation
and that there is property that is
assessed too low: We grant that, and
it should be placed on the tax books
and bear its part Of the burden, o.
have the privilege of contributing to
the expenses Of the government. But

THE URBAN DISTRICTS.

Why does not some one tabulate
the population of American cities ac-
cording~ to their area in square miles
or acres? Why does not the census
bureau undertake this task? Com
parison of the population of the IN
corporated territory of Charleston,
for example, about four square miles.
with that Of Birmingham, city OF
perhaps twelve times Charleston's
extent. is of small value.
Columbia has in its Incorporates d
area 1884 inhabitants, about G,2o0
TO the square mile. If Charlotte
have $4,000 in twelve square miles III
corporated. the density Of population
TO the square mile in that city IS y
i67.
There is no uniformity among
American cities in rules of incorpora-
ton. Consequently, differences from
census enumerations are IN most
cases misleading and, in some, mean
ingless. 1t seems that the census bu.
reau might, in addition to the publ
cation of the number of people with:
in Incorporated acreas, ascertain anc
publish the figures of population re-
siding within a radius from the cen
ter OF each city. -, >,
Comparison Of numbers of dwell
ers wltnin four miles of the centerS
Of Macon, Charlotte, Columbia and
Charleston would afford a rational
basis upon which to measure their re-
spective urban districts. A longer
radius might be used for larger cites
and shorter one for the smaller

putting it on the books is not going
to lower your taxes one whit, II we
are to Judge by the past. A te"
years ago a commission or commit
tee was appointed to find 'otner
sources of income and they were
found, and they amount to a con-
siderable sum, but did that reduce
YOUR tax. The. taxable values have
increased a good bit in the last few
years, but has the levy been de-
creased. On the contrary we have
the biggest levy in the history OF
the state. And the same will be
true when this commission finds that
other fellow and his property and
the other sources of income. The
levy will keep climbing just as the
assessments. Better find a way to
cut down appropriations and then
YOU can cut down the tax bill.
