A NEW SYSTEM ON AUTO TAGS.
Commission is Planning to License
Cars By Weight.

Columbia, Aug. 26.-A system Of
licensing automobiles, different from
that of most states and never yet
tried in South Carolina, is being
worked out by the state highway de-
partment in Columbia now, acting
under the 1920 highway act, and
looking the licening of motor We
hicles for 1921. Under the new sys-
tenn cars will be licensed according
to weight and not according to horse
power.
There will be under the new sys-
tenn, seven different classes of lie
enses for automobiles and ten for
trucks, besides licenses for dealers
and motorcycles. The main thing
about the 1921 automobile license
plate will be it's class, not it's num-
ber.
For 1921 licensing automobiles
will be granted in the following clas-
ses: Class A for light cars, up to two
Thousand pounds; Class B from two
thousand to $500 pounds; Class C,
$500 to 5000 pounds; Class D, g.
900 to $500; Class E, $500 to A.
600; Class F, 1000 to 4,5o0; Class
G, over 4,500 pounds. In each class
the number will start at 1.
For licensing trucks there will be
licenses for hard tires and different
licenses for. pneumatic tires. In
each group there will be five classes,
one-ton, 2-ton, 3-ton, 4-ton, and
over four tons. No truck of more
than four ton capacity is allowed on
the state highways in South Caro-
lima, exec with special permission
of the highway commission. There
VII also he plates for dealers, motor
cycles, and motorcycle dealers.
The highway department is pre-
pairing now to advertise for bids on
the manufacture of the license plates.
All the plates will be similar in COL
or. There will be 14S,60O, greater
number than ever before for the
state. The highway department has
this year issued $1,000 plates, out
a larger number of automobiles are
anticipated for 1921.

The score is three to one in favor o1

ing. Only one man in history-so fa1

lyle-ever smoked a pipe before
breakfast and lived. But folks who
had to associate with him died of
rapidly. Cox, however, is said to be
quite sweettempered when he par
takes of an after-breakfast pipe. He
also takes flyer in cigars now and
then.
Senator Harding smokes cigarettes
and does not care who knows it. He
even has his picture taken with Gig
arettes in his hands. He does not roll
his own.
AS for Franklin Roosevelt, ne

arctic, and it rumored, is saving the
coupons to get couch, or something.
ANYHOW, he smokes quite few, but
they do not injure him, apparently,
for he is about as husky citizen as

Private investigators who have
sought to learn if the Rev. Watkins,
who heads the Prohibftionists smokes,
found him at his home running the
washing machines, so they reported
negatively without further inquiry.
1t will seem strange to see smok-
er in the White House. Few recent
presidents have smoked. Most vice
presidents, smoke, Of course, because
otherwise their hands would be heavy

COTTON OF COLOR
ON BAMBERC FARM
HAS BEEN EXPERIMENTING
SEVERAL YEARS.

cess in Cultivating New
Kinds.
Grown By A. w. Brabhanl.

A. W. Brabham's experiments with
colored cotton continues to attract
wide attention. Mr.. Brabham has
made his experiments on his plan
tation, The Hermitage, near Olar,
Bamberg county, and Luther Bur-
bank, the plant wizard, has commun-
icated with him on the. matter.
The Savannah Morning News OF
recent date published the following
article under a double column head
line:
"After experiments for several
years in producing cottons of color,
A. w. Brabham, of The Hermitage,
Olar, S. c., believes that the END
sought, which is the production OF
black cotton, is in sight.
t'Mr. Brabham has sent the Morn
ing News four samples of cottons OF
solor which sustain his claim that
he has successfully produced these
cottons of extremely fine fibre. The
four samples shade from light brown
to dark brown and from light green
to dark green. He says that there
has never been a softer or finer f1Dre
than the dark brown sample and that
cloth woven from such cotton would
make a fabric that would surpass IN
softness any textile material yet de-
veloped.
-Four years ago Mr.. Brabham sent
his first specimens of cottons in COL
ors to the Morning News and to the
Savannah Cotton Exchange, He says
now that he has never abandoned the
idea of producing cotton of that class
but for two years he made no prog
ress, the crop each year having been
destroyed before reaching maturity.
This year great care was exercised In
the few plants of this cotton that he
grew. When the plants open up in
full Mr.. Brabham thinks that other
colors besides the four he has now
may appear
Luther Burbank wrote Mr.. Brab-.
ham that he would undertake the
JOB of producing black cotton for a
million dollars. Mr.. Brabham says
that a glance at one of his samples
shows that he is in fair way to
produce it at much lower cost than
million. He says further that he
is sure he would have produced black
cotton this year had not a package
of blue tinted cotton imported from
India miscarried. Mr.. Brabham has

FOR HIGHER PRICE
FARMERS OF STATE TAKE OATH
TO KEEP STAPLE OFF MARKET.
An Export Corporation.
With Capital Stock Of One Million
Bales Planned-Thousand
At Columbia.

Columbia, >Aug. 25.-Four thous-
and South Carolinians swore before
@sthe God of Justice today that they
would not sell their cotton at prevail
ing prices, adopted plans for the for
nation of an export corporation with
a capital stock of one million bales,
pledsed themselves to retire 25 per
cent. of the new crop from the mark
ct and agreed to reduce the acreage
of the 1920 crop by 33 1-3 per cent.
A legal contract was drawn up to be
signed by the farmers agreeing to the
reduction of acreage.
There was not an auditorium in the
city of Columbia big enough to hold
the crowd which gathered from every
section of the state today for the
meeting. The first attempt was made
to hold the meeting in Craven Hall,
where the association has held all of
it's former meetings. The hail was
soon crowded to the suffocation point
and the crowd surging at the doors
demanded entrance, a hasty confer
ence was held on the platform by Of
fcials and it was decided to move the
meeting to the Columbia theatre.
Adjourn to University Campus.
The crowd insisted that it would
not hold all who were seeking admis-
sion.
Finally Governor Cooper arose and
suggested that the meeting be ad-
journed to the campus of the Univer-
sity of South Carolina and that meet
ing be held in the open air. This ac-
ton was agreed to and with whoop
the crowd moved on the university
campus some five blocks away. There
for more than four hours they plann-
ed the movement which they say will
free them from the domination of the
bears of Wall street.
Speeches were delivered by J. Skot-
towe Wannamaker, president of the
American Cotton Association; United
States Senator Nat B. Dial; A. F. Lev
er, member of the Federal Reserve
Board; Governor Cooper and others.
"They shall not have our cotton
except at fair and reasonable price, "
was the slogan of the meeting. Work
ing to this end the convention unani-
mously adopted the resolution provid-
ing for the formation of the export
corporation with a capital stock of
one. million bales of cotton
Hundreds of farmers wanted to
subscribe to the corporation today
and were impatient because subscirp-
tion blanks could not be printed in
time for distribution at the meeting.
Telegrams poured in from all over
the south pledging heavy subscrip-
tions Of stock.

There has been no action taken
to prevent the commission from

of the president to sign the water

Country's Vast
Water Power To
Be DeveIOped

Washington, Sept. 10.-Deye.op-
ment of the vast water power re-
sserves of the United States will be-
gin within. the next year If the
plans outlined by the federal water
power commission and the repre-
sentatives of the corporations, plan
ming to take up the task who met
here in conference, are fulfilled.
The water power commission has
received more than score of ap-
plications from all parts of the
country for consideration of speci-
fic projects as soon as regulations
can be formulated for the granting
Of water power licenses to carry
into effect the provisions Of the wa
ter power legislation signed by the
president following the close Of the
last session of congress.
Fears of persons interested in the
water power development that the
government would levy heavy
charges for the development of
power have been disnelled by the
of the legislation and the
attitude of the commission. The
question of state charges is one
which the men who were present
at the conference have, not been
fully able to asctertain.
Water right charges in several
states already have been determin-
I'd. In others action must be taken.
