W. PIG. HARDING
FARMERS HOPE.
SAYS AMOROUS
Editor The Journal:

Editor The Journal:
Governor w. P. G. Harding, of the
federal reserve board, is the great
est figure in finance today. His
views and forecasts on economic
conditions should have the weight of
the powerful position ne holds. His
recent statements that confidence is
restored and that business is now
on a normal basis is cheering news
to the millions of farmers who can
not sell their cotton for enough
money to pay half their debts.
They also will add hope to the
merchant that he can soon collect
enough to "thaw out" his frozen
credits" and he now can place his
orders for stocks of goods from the
wholesaler and the mill and factory
can call to work their idle work
people and start their machines to
make products to sell the wholesaler.
In the position he occupies Gov
ernor Harding has the power to
bring about these normal, orderly
conditions which are so necessary to
the welfare of all the people and it
is but natural for US to have con
fidence" that he will sustain his
1OI cCdStS ny SOIn6 concrete remedy.
To evidence further that we should
TRUST in him to restore order |
have before me his statement last
September-"I am a firm believer in
gradual and orderly methods of mar
ketlng our great agricultural staples.
Agriculture is the most important
of all Industries, for upon its fruits
depend the lives of those engaged in
all other industries.
1.-THE farmer is a great consumer
of manufactured products and any
thing that affects his BUYING pow
Err is soon reflected in the bust
ness Of the merchant and the manu-
facturer, while the individual farm
er may be just as we'll off with
small production and high prices,
the mass of the population is far
better off with FULL PRODUCTION
and moderate prices.
But farming as a business must
be remuneratiVe or production will
languish. 1t is, therefore, important
that the efforts of the farmer be sup
ported and stimulated, that he be
aided in preserving the full measure
of his harvest and that he be afford
ed an opportunity of marketing his
products on terms sufficiently profit
able to warrant his staying in the
business of farming"
These words Of Governor Harding
point directly to the remedy to be
Restore the buying power Of the
farmer"

Found by San Francisco police en-
the persons of crooks, recently ar
rived from the East, n. trial of the
"knife-gun's" power was made. 1t
was found that at SO feet the bullet
would pierce a board for an inch.
While a shot from this weapon
would seldom prove fatal, police see
in it a most dangerous instrument
for the wounding. of police or hold
up victims. Occupying no more space
in a pocket than an ordinary knife,
it could easily be overlooked by po-
lice "frisking" a suspect for weapons,
or could be hidden in the palm of a
crooks hand, later to be used in
making an escape.

In Memoriam.
To My Mother, Mrs. A. F. QUITS,
WhorWent Home Aug. 10, 1920.

Just one short year since you left us,
Ages and ages it seems,
Often and often l e you,
I see you only in dreams.
Always I am bending Ger you
Striving to relieve the pain;
Then / grieve, to find as always,
That my striving is in vain.
I had ever tried to shield you
From the storms that blew without,
I had often felt their ragings
Toss my weary soul about.
When our efforts prove so fruitless,
Then it is God does his part,
Thus it was He came and took you.
Safely to his home and heart.
1 am thinking, mother, dearest,
Of the time, when not in dreams,
We shall be again together,
Where love in perfection streams.
5 Where the cloud is golden sunshine
Where the rain is heavens dew, =
Where the Light is always shining,
There around His throne for you.

any more than I should blame him
for risking his life to hold them
should their friends attempt to res
cue them. If I were in the sheriff's
place I should hold them if it cost
me my life and I now expect the
sheriff and other officers to do like
wise. i should be true to my oath;
they will be true to theirs.
"The representatives of the law
first arrested the men, who other
wise might by now have made good
their escape, and l know that the law
can be trusted to hold them and to
punish them for their brutal crime.
The death or injury of a sheriff or
of some friend of mine or. my boys
will not help me lear my loss. If
II were to read tomorrow chat Fox
and Gappins had been lynched 1
should feel no better OF happier than
II do now. These men have broken
the law and will be punished without
delay by the law. The lynehing of
ther1 will not make their punishment
more certain. The law has done its
part inn capturing the murderers
and obtaining the evidence against
them; it will do the rest by punish
ing them"
/, Mr.. Brazell also made his appeal
in person to men, supposed to be
members of the mob, asking them to
discontinue any efforts to take the
men from the hands of. the officers.
Mr.. Brazell was a member of the
searching party which located the
body of the slain boy near Leesville
last Tuesday and so knows the story
of the killing in all its horrible de-
State.

Subscription Price Depends
Largely on Circulation.

1t is desirable that the patrons of
the Yorkville Inquirer thoroughly
understand the attitude of the pub
fishers on the question of the sub
scription price.
In arriving at a fixed subscription
price for a newspaper, it is necessary
to consider the number of subscrib-
ers obtainable along with the prob
able amount of advertising business
to be secured.
1t is the desire of the publishers
to make the subscription rate as low
as possible, so as to put the benefits
of the paper more easily within the
reach of the largest number of peo-
pie.
At a subscription rate of $3.50 a
year, under present conditions, and
with revenue from advertising, it
would require a circulation of about
5000 copies per issue to pay actual
expenses of. publication.
At the present time the circulation
of the paper, although easily the
largest of any county paper in the
state, if not in the South, is less than
5000 copies per issue.
1t is the intention of the publishers
to establish the subscription price
of the Yorkville Enquirer at $3.50 a
year if they can; but it must be dis
tinctly understood that they r not
committed to that proposition.
If it shall develop that it is impos-
sible to furnish the paper at this
price, the price will be raised next
fall, before the time for the renewal
of 1922 subscriptions.
Of course all who subscribe and
pay for the paper now at $3.50 will
get the paper for twelve months at
that price, but if it shall be found
to increase the price later
on, those who subscribe thereafter
will be required to pay the increased
If the publisher can get as many
as four thousand subscribers alto
gether, he will undertake to guar
antee the $3.50 rate; but otherwise
no definite promises can be made at
this time. -Yorkville Enquirer.
