The Irish Question.

About the best that can be SAID
about the long drawn out conferences
over the Irish question is that the
public seems to understand the diff
entities Of the situation better than ii
did, without being able to offer any
thing like a satisfactory solution.
In brief the situation is this. There
are two clements in Ireland that are
as much out of harmony with cach
other as either of them is with Eng
land. one being the UlsteritcS mainly
in the north of Ireland and the other
the Sim Feins mainly TO the south;
but each having partisans more or less
thinly scattered among the other.
The Sim Fcins are for the most part
Catholic and the Ulsteritcs are for the
most part ProtcStants, and while re-
ligion is not openly admitted by either
side to be principal element OF differ
ence, there is no reasonable question
of the fact That it plays 4 very large
part-religion and racial hcredity, 1t
might be more correct to say.
That Lloyd George is willing to set
tie the matter or any terms that will
preserve the formal allegiance Of Ire
land TO the British crown is so evident
rs TO leave but tho slightest doubt OF
his. carncstncss and sincerity, unless
the NOR" sccptical are TO base their
l.

The Rock Hill Herald has just
reached its tenth birthday, as a daily
the first issue having appeared on
December /, 1911. This event is a
subject of congratulation both to the
management of the Herald and to the
City Of Rock Hill. There are few
practical newspaper men of experience
who would have believed ten years ago
that ii was possible to publish daily
paper in town like Rock Hill on its
merits, and in proving the contrary
Mr.. Fain has accomplished a feat TO be
proud of. According to al the rules
and traditions of newSpapering the
Herald may now be regarded as having
been fairly Established for the past five
or six years, and The Norkyille En-
quircr does not hesitate to say that Mr.
Fain is richly entitled to all that he
has attained and a great deal more.

- Columbia, November 90: Contracts
representing 1900 bales were received
from Darlington county today by the
South Carolina Cotton Growers CO.
operative association, sending this
county's total TO approximately 10000
bales and increasing its lead on all
other counties. A request that more
blank contracts be forwarded at once
indicated, President H. G. Hammer,
said, that the drive in that county.was
being continued with vigor by D. B.
Dargan, county chairman, and A. H.
Ward, couRty agent. That the cooper
ative cotton market plan is succeeding
in Texas is evidenced by a statement
received by President Kaminer from
that state yesterday showing that
Texas members of the association are
receiving such better prices for their
cotton than are non members and that
the Texas association is having no
trouble financing the cotton of it's
members The statement from Texas
was t. the effect that the first on the
New York market Of acceptances of
the Texas association was made re-
Gently, acceptanceS TO the amount Of
800. 900 having been sold at 81 per
cent. This sale, the statement said, Is
a recognition of the stability of the
Texas organization. 1t was further
said that telegram had been received
by the president of the Texas associa-
tion from the War Finance corporation
in Washington which has advanced
$l5.OOO,OO9 TO the association announc-
ing that hereafter all commitments
will bear interests at The rate of 81 per
cent. instead of Z per cent. as original
" provided. The Texas association, 1t
was said, has already received more
than 100000 bales and advanced more
than $l,500,O0O to members. From IL

II think you ought to give, that

said Mr.. w. l.. Pursley of Filbert, to
Here and There the other day. Here
comes q man shooting another through

was drunk and the judge doing moth

again. Whoever heard of a suspend

Maybe a petit jury could do worse
than that; but / don't exactly see

Pursley space in which to discuss the

John Nance, colored Of York No. 4,
has a remedy for pains of body and
especially stiff joints that he wants

for pains about the body and stiff
joints that would like to tell the peo-
pie about if there is no danger OF
getting the doctors after me. 1t Is just
this: Camphor dissolved in gasoline,
Just put lump of camphor in a half
pint OF gasoline and you have it, John
was told that he probably had very
good local liniment for some purposes,

The French point out that the theory
of British naval experts that Britain
must have a fleet equal to that of any
two powers is out Of date. II such a
theory, the French assert, does not ap-
ply to the Pacific, why should it apply
to the Mediterranean. The French
thesis also is that since neither Italy
nor France are likely to build up to
the 300. 900 ton maximum involved in a
three ratio as compared to Britain's
five. it makes no practical difference
10 Great Britain what ratio is fixed. 1t
has been indicated in French quarters
that France will not object TO Italy
having u navy as large as that OF
France.

The Yorkville Cotton Oil ginnery

bales of cotton a day.
- City Treasurer Faulkner collected
S9127.O3 in city taxes last Wednesday
His total book is $l9,666.22 and up tC
Wednesday he had collected S1O,2O5.SS
The total sum to which the penalty

which is on personal property, tnt

There were considerably mere than
n hundred service men, most OF theln
members of the American Legion, at a
smoker given by the Mech Stewart
Post in its club rooms over the Mack
orell drug store last Tuesday night.
Light refreshments were served, ana
there were q number of speeches for
the good of the organization. the prln-
cipal address being by Morris I.
Lumpkin of the American Legion. Inc
common verdict of the service men
was that they had Il great time Sener-
ally.
Because of a scarcity of fresh
country eggs, all of the local dea ers
are carrying stocks of shipped eggs
which are generally being sold at oO
cents q dozen. At the present time the
dealer is paying slightly over 40 cents
4 dozen for the shipped eggs delivered.
But the shipped eggs are not esteemed
as highly as country eggs. Dealers
rcodilv nav 80 cents for the country
ecas. and sell them ut 60 cents. or
even higher. the consumer seldom
questioning the difference. Peop'c e
bringing. in country eggs generally find
il easy enough to dispose of them al
even more than 80 cents at private
homes. The shipped eggs go very well
where nothing elise is 10 be had; but
they are always valued ut less by con-
.;lImlnrS who KNOW the difference.

York county schools are generally
doing some good work-far better
work than they formerly did; but not
nearly as good >work as they will do
with more active cooperation of the
parents.
So far this season more than three
hundred new subscribers have been
added to the mailing list of The York
Vile Enquirer an increase Of more
than 10 per cent, with 2 1-2 months
still to go on.
During the progress of the road
work on the Kings Mountain road,
some of the travellers between York
VILE and Filbert are going up the Lin
coin road to q point about mile and
quarter from the courthouse, then
taking the left, going by r. r. Nc
Corkle's old place and coming out into
the Kings Mountain road at the w. b.
Keller farm.
Now is the time for every clubmaker
for The Yorkvil,e Enquirer to "get
busy" each with canvass of his own
community for new subscribers, and
also look after the returning of all
subscriptions that expire January l
THE extra month still included in the
price of q years subscription should
be some inducement to the new sub
I'scriber, and as q matter of course
many current subscribers are leaving
the matter of renewal Of their sub
scriptions entirely to the cubmaker
There is always an extra heavy rush
of work in connection with the an
nual revision of the subscription list OF
the Enquirer and the more time there
is in which to handle renewals the less
the probability Of confusion.
The "schoo week" idea that Super
intendent Of Education Carroll is pro-
noting is rather novel; but it is GER
tain to commend itself to patrons ant
others who are giving it consideration
We have quite a lot at stake in tht
schools Of this county. We are spend
ing good deal of money on them; but
really that is 4 very unimportant con-
| sideration. A much bigger thing is thC
fact that they are Of such tremendous
Importance to the best we have-oul
children-the future men and Womer
Of the country. 1t is desirable that the
people generally should get in closer
touch with the schools, learn what Is
being done with the children and how
and get ideas as to whether or mo-
| there can be Improvement. Superin-
tcndent Carroll recognizes that after
! al, the parents are the best Judges ol
this matter and he desires their advice
| and assistance. He is doing all he can;
but he does not want to take all the re-
sponsibility without assistance. Tha'
| is why he wants parents to Vlslt the
! schools during next week, then at the
end of the week, on Saturday, Decem-
her 10. assemble in convention and eN-
change ideaS-the best ideas they hi'e
been acquiring all along and such ideas
as may come to them through personal
investigation next week. Surely there
are but few parents in all Of York
county who will underestimate the
tremendous Importance of this matter
and surely there are few Of those who
are able to make this inspection neN'
week who viii neglect to do II.

The pain truth Of the matter is that
there meyer has been any certainty OF
