THE ORIGIN OF DUE WEST"
Dr.. J. w. Daniel is writing a

DR.. J. w. Daniel is writing a
series of very interesting articles
for the Southern Christian Advo-
cate on "By-Ways of State His
tory" In recent paper entitled
"Along the Keowee Trail" he has
the following to say about the orr
gin of the name Due West, which
we think will be read with interest
by many of our readers.
"The old Keowee trail was, there
fore at first a trail across the noun
tains into our State, which was true
of a number of other trails which
developed into roads, crossing at
gaps, as we shall notice in treating
other old roads. 1t was at first the
highway between these two ancient
capitals. The trail between Keowee
and Stump-house mountain passed
Tamasse. AS this Indian town was
about nine miles east of Walhalla it
will be noticed that the trail deflect-
ed eastward from what is now the
old survey of the Blue Ridge Rail
road. This was necessary to reach
the capital of the Under-hills on
Keeowee. From Keeowee the trail is
almost an air line southwark to-
where Pendleton is now located and
then down the line of the Blue
Ridge Railroad and the Columbia
and .Greenville railroad to the vicini-
ty of Honea Path. From this point
it followed almost a straight course
to De, Whites Corner, now corrupt
ed into Due West, where there was
afterward training post and
camping ground for the pack horse
trains. I have heard a tradition that
De Wits Corner was corrupted in
to it's present name, Due West, by
the traders in after years when, ow-
ing to the rather sharp turn west
ward near Honea Path, they called
De Wits Due West, from the point
of turning, of course. I do not
vouch for the truth of it, though it
may have been possible that the
name was thus changed by the droll
humor of the old traders.
"From Due West the trail de-
Elected eastward until it again
reached the crest of the ridge that

SOUTHERN RY. TO SUE
MUSCLE SHOALS
PLANT is VOTED
Authority Is Shifted From The
Shoulders Of Secretary of War
To Secretary OF The Treasury

Washington, Jan. 15.-The Sem
ate late Friday passed the Muscle
Shoals nitrate bill. The bill provides
for a federal corporation to con-
tinue the production of nitrates in
the plant erected at Muscle Shoals
and Sheffield, Ala, during the war.
The vote was 81 to 29.
A motion by Senator Poindexter
to refer the bill to the military af-
fairs committee, was defeated by a
vote of 35 to 26. This was the first
real test of strength.
Several amendments transferring
from the secretary of war to the
secretary of the treasury all author
ity over the proposed continuance
of the Muscle Shoals nitrate plant
by federal corporation, were
adopted by the Senate Friday with
out a roll call.
Adoption of the amendments to
the pending nitrate bill by viva
voce vote was the result of an
agreement between Senator Wads-
worth, Republican, Of New York,
leader of the opposition, and Sena-
tor Underwood of Alabama, Demo
cratic minority leader, who is di-
recting the support of the measure.
An amendment limiting the oper-
talon of the proposed nitrate cor
poraion ito the Muscle Shoals and
Sheffield, Ala, plants was also
adopted by a viva voce vote. Anoth-
er amendment adopted took away
the proposed corporation all right
to condemn of acquire property by
right of eminent domain.

headwaters Of Mulberry creek, pass
ing a little west of Cokesbury thru
Greenwood to Coronaca. "At that
point, says Logan, "the creek here
was shaded by a notable grove of
large white oaks, on which account
it received from the Indians the
name of QuooranIhe-qua-the

BUSINESS HEADS
GET RUDE SHOCK
Republican Senator Makes Profit
eering Charge-Public Grows
Tired

Washington, Jan. 15.-Certaln
American business interests were
rebuked by Representative Young
Republican, North Dakota, today
during consideration of tariff reVis-
ion by the house ways and means
committee for asking duties which
he charged would amount to hcens-
ing them to continue profiteerlng.
He served notice on his fellow mem
bers that on this ground he would
strenuously, oppose the granting OF
import duties ranging from 100
per cent to 400 per cent. above the
Payne-Aldrich rates."
Earlier in the day, Senator Nc
Cumber, Republican, also from
North Dakota, had announced his
purpose to seek an increase IN the
duty on wheat in the Fordney en-
ergency tariff from 80 cents to so
cents a bushel. The North Dakota
senator declared the higher rate
was Necessary to stop enormous i'm
portations" of wheat from Canada.
Mr.. Young said he was "getting
tired" of witnesses coming before
the committee to ask for prohibitive
rates in the proposed permanent
tariff and relating to the committee
details of how German competition
was cutting into their trade. Testl-
mony had been given on the sub
ject of importations of needles and
while on that pointed subject, Mr..
Young asserted that lot of indus
tries weer complaining of the COM
petition when what was hurt a lot
of these industries is the definite
decision of the consuming public to
submit mol onger to war PRICES"
'tIt is time somebody put on the
brakes" he continued. Here and
now, 1 serve notice I shall oppose
any such duties as those witnesses
are asking. They are pleading with
crocodile tears in their eyes for i'm
port duties ranging from 100 per

HUGE ROBBERY OF
MAIL SACKS WITH
MONEY REPORTED
One Bag Said To Have Had Some
$4,000 In 1t. Payroll Money

Mount Vernon. ILL.,, Jan. 15.-
Four sacks of registered mail, one
reported to have contained $4,000
for use in making up payrolls at
Franklin county coal mines, disap-
peared here early today.
An estimate of the value of the
contents of the other three sacks
was not available.
The sacks were received at the
local postoffice over the Louisville
and Nashville railroad from St.
Louis and their disappearance was
learned of when mail was being
placed on a Chicago and Eastern IL
linois train for shipment to nearby
mining towns. The sack said to have
contained the $4,000 was said to
have gone to Benton. Sam Moreland
who has contract with the govern
ment to carry the mail from the
postofRce to the railroad station, de-
clared he did not notice the sacks
were missing until asked about them
at the depot where recheck is
made.
Federal officials have begun an in
vestigation. They refuse to discuss
the matter.
