Glover, July 10--Removal Of several
houses and other buildings necessary
to clear the site on which the Hamp-
shire Spinning Mill is to be built in
| Clover has been begun and construc-
ton work proper on the towns new
million dollar cotton mill is expected
to begin within few days. The
Minter Homes Corporation of Green
Vile, who have the contract for build
ing the houses for the new mill village
have already begun the work of haul
ing the necessary building materials
here large quantity of these ma
tcrials having recently been deposited
on the II. NJ. Robinson lands recently
acquired by the mill company as a
site for the mill village. Clover peo-
pie expect that within the next two
weeks the population of the town will
be considerably increased by the pres
ence of numerous workmen engaged on
the mill construction enterprise.
Campaign Meeting at Filbert.
DIR. |. J. Campbell of Glover, state
Democratic executive committeeman
from York county, is expecting to re-
ceive a reply this week from Hon.
Edgar Brown of Barnwell, chairman Of
| the committee relative to DR.. Camp
BELLS request that the South Carolina
| Campaign party meet at Filbert on
August 2, instead of Yorkville as has
been designated by the committee. 1t
is believed that Chairman Brown will
gladly authorize the change since he,
as well as the members of the cam
paign party are anxious to have the
candidates for state Offices to meet as
many voters as possible at each meet
| ing. If biennial meetings OF former
years are to be taken as Il criterion,
the state party would be greeted by
only mere handful Of voters at
Yorkville; while it is a practical cer-
tainty that they will have opportunity
to greet several thousand people if
they come to Filbert. But since the
Filbert people have definitely decided
upon August 2, as the date of their
picnic this year, it really doesn't mat
ter a great deal whether the official
meeting is changed from Yorkville to
Filbert or not When candidates reach
Yorkville on August and learn that
the big picnic is in progress at Filbert,
the chances are nine to one that they
would jump the Yorkville meeting any
how And scores of Clover people will
go to Filbert to hear them where one
would go to the county seat. 1t is only
five miles from Glover to Filbert and
twice that distance on to Yorkville.
May Get Out New Ticket.
There was an interesting political
rumor on the streets here Saturday to
the effect that there was a probability
that an entirely new set Of candidates
for the house Of representatives would
be put in the field. Several well known
politicians from the New Zion section
of York county were here for con-
ference with a number of Glover poll
tical leaders relative to the matter.
The claim was made that there is a
demand from many sections of York
county that four men be elected to the
house of representatives from York
this year who will work hard to keep
down both county and state appropria-
tions The inference was that the
present members of the house had not
worried themselves very much about
keeping down the burden Of taxes for
the citizens of York. Whether or not
anything is going to come out of it re-
mains to be seen.
Glover Defeated RanIo.
The "never say die" spirit that has
long characterized Glover baseball
players was present Saturday after
noon as usual and was responsible for
/ Clover's defeat Of the fast Ranlo, n
c. team, to 4, after ii appeared that
Ranlo had the game scwcd up. The
score was tied by Glover when tht
ninth bobbed up and then since it was
growing late, the game having beer
interrupted by rain, Manager and First
Bascman VIII Rudisill decided that
there wasn't bit of use in letting the
fracas go into extra innings. SO Mr
Rudisill parked one over the left ticlc
fence for the circuit and the score
stood 4 to in favor Of Glover. Early
in the game it looked like an easy
victory for Ranlo, due to an error by
"Duck" Rudisll, and Il couple of wilt
throws to the plate by jim Page. Lee
Porch, new player for the Hawthorn
team made good with the fans by &
timely three base hit. Catchc" Herber
