One Way Of looking at 1t.

"a Denmark man was addressing
several persons at the court house
the other day. 81 don't know what
bhe farmers: are going to do with
their cucumbers this year." said he.
..eThey have increased the acreage
this year and don't see any hope of
being able to sell them. 1t is not
reasonable that more cucumbers can
be sold this year than last. During
the past year lots of the old Yankees
have died, and the babies that have
been born to take their place are too
small to eat cucumbers, therefore
the demand is not going to be so
great. I don't see what in the world
we are to do with our cucumbers this
year"
One of the listeners was ready
with a possible solution. "?ickle
'em,'' was his suggestion.
Another auditor suggested: 3tSell
'em to the pickle factories up north;
they can ship them back to Bamberg
county and we can buy 'em back at
two for a nickle.'
That last idea is not so bad at that.
Anyway, that is about what most of
US do.

GOVERNOR SIGNS PHONE BILL.
Charges Same as Those Prior to Janu-
ary 1, 1921.

Columbia, April 3.-Governol
Cooper today signed the Foster Act
requiring the Southern Bell Tele-
phone and Telegraph company to re-
duce its service rates to where they
were before the South Carolina Rail-
road commission authorized an in
crease on January l, 1921. The sig
nature of the governor makes the act
the law of the state.
The act gives the company right
to appeal the promulgated rate OF
the commission to the circuit court
and supreme court for adjudication.
The provisions of the act, accord
ing to Interpretation, will not inter-
fere with the bills rendered by the
company for the month of March, but
will provide for 20 per cent. reduc-
ton in bills rendered for service dur
ing the month of April.
The act exempts Independent lines
operating in not more than two coun-
ties owned by citizens residing with
in those counties. The act, it is be-
lieved, would require Independent
companies having stockholders out
side the specified distances to come
under it's provisions and reduce their
rates also.
While no statement to the effect
has been made, it is believed that the
Southern Bell Telephone and Tele-
graph company will test the validity
of the act in the courts.

Patrick Succumbs
to February Wound

Charleston, April John A. Pat
rick died at the Baker Sanatorium
last night as the result of a gunshot
wound received on the night of Feb
ruary 25, near St. George, having
been brought to Charleston the fol-
lowing day for treatment. His body
will be shipped to St. George this
morning by Mr.. j. Henry Stuhr, and
the funeral will be held in Applebys
Methodist church. Mr.. Patrick's
father is the Rev. W. T. Patrick, of
Dorchester.
Mr.. Patrick was wounded while on
on his way home from his store on
the wire road" about five miles from
St. George. He was walking alone at
the time and as he was passing a
clump of trees he was fired on. Later
Willie Carr was arrested in ST..
George, charged with the shooting.
1t is alleged that the tragedy re-
suited from Mr.. Patrick's statement
that Carr had interferred with his
boat and Carr is quoted as saying
that he resented Mr.. Patrick's charge,
while not denying it's truth. Both of
the men belong to well-known fami-
lies. Mr.. Patrick was only about
thirty feet from his assailant when
he was wounded.
There has been very little hope for
Mr.. .Patrick's recovery and latterly
it was realized that his chances were
desperate. He was about forty years
of age. He is survived by widow
and several children.

Late taxpayers May
Lose Right to Vote

Columbia, April 3.-Persons pay
ing their 1921 taxes late, under the
resolution of the recent legislature,
which authorizes postponement Of
takes, will not have the right to vote
in certain elections of this year, &C
cording to the opinion of the attor-
ney generals Office. The opinion Of
the attorney general was expressed
in a letter written unoficially to Cor
nelius Otis of Spartanburg, attorney
for parties interested in a school trus-
tee election in Spartanburg, county,
and while it was not an official opin-
ion, it expressed the legal view of the
situation as taken by the states at
torney. At the same time, the attor-
ney generals office stated that the
matter of the legality of vote by a
person who postponed paying his tax
es under the recent legislation would
have to be settled by the courts.
The attorney general takes the
position that the resolution of the
legislature, which provided that
late payment of taxes would not dis
qualify an elector, is contrary to the
constitution and he quotes court rul-
ings to substantiate his contention.
The constitution provides that as
qualification for voting all taxes for
the year must be paid by December
81, or the elector cannot have the
right to vote in any election for six
months thereafter.
7 resolution of the legislature
postpones payment of taxes without
actual execution by. the sheriff until
September, but with penalties rang
ing as high as seven per cent. after
May l. There is a proviso to the
resolution which says that the pay
ment of tax under this resolution will
not disqualify an elector from voting.
The attorney general takes the posi-
ton that this is contrary to the, con-
stitution. The opinion of the attor-,
ney generals Office was written by AS
sistant Attorney General Daniel, as
unofficial advice to the Spartanburg,
school authorities.

FLAMES DAMAGE AIKEN HOTEL.
Fire Destroys One Wing Of Highland
Park.

Aiken, April 2.-One wing of the
Highland Park hotel here was burn
ed in a fire which began at 1880
O'Clock tonight. For a time the
flames threatened the entire struc-
ture and call on Augusta for help
was made. However, the flames were
under control before the Georgia
city unit fire fighting apparatus ar
rived. The loss is estimated beween
$4,000 and $4,000. The company
plans to rebuild the burned portion at
once.
The wing destroyed was at right
angles to the main building and was
two stories high. The lower floor
consisted of the dining room, sun par
lor, kitchen and pantry. The second
floor was cut up into - rooms occu-
pied by hotel help. These saved all
their efforts and no one was injured.
The hotel is owned by an Aiken
the time the fire was discovered.
These all left their rooms without
mishap, and returned to the hotel as
soon as the fire was put out.
Thus far it is not known just how
the flames originated.

ated as the Highland Park Hotel COM
