EXPECTING MANY

(From Tuesdays Daily Herald)
County Agent Mclean is expecting
farmers and dairymen from every sec
tion of the county to attend the meet
ing to be held in the county council
rooms at 10 O'Clock Monday morning
for the purpose of organizing COW
testing association for the county.
AT preliminary meeting held here
d few days ago quite number Of dali
ryrnen signified their intention to af-
tiliate themselves with this associa-
ton, and it is believed little remains
to be done but the signing up of the
blanks, which have arrived. The or
ganization of the association was de-
layed on the non-appearance of G. A.
Hutton, OF the department of extern
sion, who was detained at home on
account Of the serious Hines of his
sister, but Mr.. Mclean announced to-
day there would be no further delay
and invites every dairyman in the
county to attend the meeting here

JUST AS FAR APART AS THEY
HAVE BEEN FROM START.
UP TO THE LEGISLATORS
Believed That Senator Looney viii
Pass His Bill in the Senate on the
Third Reading, But Fate in House
Is Uncertain.
(From Tuesdays Daily Herald.)

(From Tuesdays Daily Herald.)
Effort TO reach an agreement on the
lines for the extension of the corpor-
ate limits of Columbia at a joint meet
ing from both sides on Monday after
noon proved abortive. Apparently the
two factions are just as far apart as
ever and the whole matter is in the
hands of the senator and the two rep-
rosentatives from this county in the
Legislature. Hf
In an effort, as the annexationists
understood, to agree upon the lines
for the great city the committees met.
For the annexationists were appoint
ed w. s. Beasley, William e. Britain
and Robert ]. Harlan, while the oppo-
sition was represented by Robert l..
Mckinney, William b. Greenlaw and
John Shelby Coffey. The opposition
insisted that the merits of the issue
of annexation should be the subject of
the conference. The annexationists
declared that the issut of annexation
was settled and was not matter for
the conference to discuss. That terms
and conditions and lines only We're to
be discussed. On this issue there was
A radical disagreement and the confer
ence parted as far apart as when 1t
was convened.
One side apparently understood that
the conference was held for the pur-
pose of agreeing on the details of an
nexation, while the other side just as
stoutly maintained that the confer
ence was for the purpose of discussing
and opening UP the whole subject of
annexation. OF course with views so
widely apart there could be no agree
ment
1t is understood that at least one
member of the legislative delegation
has requested that no more Hobbies
be sent to Nashville by either side, as
the delegation is in possession OF all
the facts and expects now to take the
responsibility for final decision. 1t
S generally believed that as the result
of the failure of the conference Sena-
tor Looney will pass the annexation
bill in the senate on the third reading
and send it to the house. That puts
the entire responsibility up to the
Maury delegation in the house. So far
the annexation bill has never been in
troduced in the house, but that will
not be necessary for in due course the
senate bill will come up on third read
ing in the house and must either be
killed, buried in committee or passed

AS this annexation has become the
topic of the day desire admittance

has been so much said about the injus-
tice that would be done Mcdowell
school by annexation, ! want to say it
seems to me this school has been try
ing for a number of years to get in
the city and did come in a stones
throw of the city limits, and as we all
know, this school was intended to lie a
district school instead of city school
Mcdowell gave the ground to build
this school upon and from him it
takes its name. Now at, that place it
was too near Columbia, and the pa
irons labored under a great inconven-
fence to patronize it from the South
ern portion of the district. From
where it was originally. it was five
miles or more and should have been
removed south instead of north to
have done justice to it's patrons, but
somehow or other it was moved just
as near town as possible without leav-
ing 1t to vote of the patrons.
Now, the city is more liberal and is
willing to leave it to vote to annex
it and let the ninth district have a
school near the center, which gives
the ninth district chance to patron
ize the school.
1t is only the interest | feel Of the
aggrieyed of the ninth district that I
