The State Fair Graft.-For years tn

The State Fair Graft.-For years the
legislature has appropriated several
thousand dollars for the State Fair So
iety-incidentally, in fragrant viola
ton of the constitution of the state.
The item has been repeatedly fought
in committee and on the floor OF the
house of representatives, but the Co.
lumbia influence which is ever alert to
promote the interest of that city at
the expense of the taxpayers of the
state has seen to it that the item
stayed in the appropriation bill. This
year $4,000 is set aside for the society,
provided no gambling is allowed in the
fair grounds during fair week. 1t
would therefore seem to be up to the
comptroller general to ascertain
whether this provision of the appropri-
alton bill is complied with, and then,
in the event that it is not, to refuse to
honor the warrant for the money.
Aside from the fact that the legisla-
ture has neither legal nor moral right
to hand over the taxpayers money to
the fair society," there is nothing in
tho act appropriating the money re-
quiring the fair officials to make an
accounting to the legislature of how
the money was spent. SO far rs we
have heard there has been no dishon-
esty in connection with the use of the
money in the past, but it is very easy
to imagine that if set Of dishonest
men were in charge OF the financial
affairs of the society, they could steal
every cent of the appropriation and
the legislature would he none the
wiser-Fort Mill Times.

(By a Staff Correspondent.)

Glover, October 24.-Citizens of Clo-
yer are voting today on the question
of issuing bonds in the sum OF S65,OOo
for the purpose Of installing sewer
system in the town. The election on
the question is the result Of an agita-
ton for such a necessity that has been
going on here for more than two years.
There appears to be no doubt but what
the bond issue will carry, since 1t is
understood that there is little or no
opposition to the project, even on the
part Of those who have installed their
own private water and sewer plants at
a great expense. The general opinion
is that if Clover is to continue to grow
and make progress q sewer system is
absolutely necessary. At the election
today the voters are also electing an
alderman to succeed DR.. ]. e. Brison,
who has moved to Gastonia. Ralph
Webber, superintendent Of the Haw-
thorn mill, is the only candidate whose
name appears on the printed ticket
and of course he will be elected. M.
B. Falls, who was announced as can
didate some time ago, later withdrew
from the race.

TIRZAH NEWS NOTES.
State Warehouse Made Storage Point
for Cooperative Association.
fBv Staff Correspondent

Tirzah, October 24.-Ralph Oates,
custodian of the Tirzah state ware
house, has received notice from j..
Clifton Rivers, state warehouse COM
missioner, that the Tirzah warehouse
has been designated as a storage point
for cotton of the Cooperative Market
ing association and he has orders to
receive this cotton as fast as 1t Is
brought in. There are numbers OF far
mers in the TirZah community who
have signed the Cooperative Market
ing association and by reason of this
fact it is expected that the local ware
house will soon be filled. Mr.. Oates
said the other day that he already has
several hundred bales Of cotton in the
warehouse, some of which has been in
storage from as far back as 1918.
Women AS Managers.
Tlrzah women will have the distinc-
ton of being the first women of York
county to serve Us managers in gen.
eral election. One woman and two
men have been designated as mama
gers for the state election to be held
here November z. The lady Is Mrs.
Mary e. Campbell, and her two male

Of the election for Federal Offices on
November 7. They are Mrs. Lila b.
Oates and Mrs. Ada ]. Gordon, while
the third member OF the board Of elec-'
ton managers is w. T. Oates.
More Than Half Crop.
Tirzah farmers are quite confident
that they will harvest more than half
as much cotton this fall as they did
last, although everybody is agreed that
the crop of the community is rather
short due to unfavorable seasons and
the boil weevil. Still, it is turning out
pretty we'll, all things considered, and
farmers of this section are confident
that Tirzah's crop showing is going to
be proportionately as good as that of
any other section of the county.
Many Attended Fair.
Many people of TirZah and commu-
nifty attended the county fair in Rock
Hill and the home demonstration
forces of Tirzah were among those
having booths at the fair. Numbers
of people of this section had exhibits
there and several local people were
prize winners, among them being j. NJ.
Campbell and his son, Hugh Camp

Labor Comes and Goes.

Unskilled labor for service at the
Hampshire mill, now building, contin-
ues to come and go. Negroes from all
sections of York county and from 9TH
er counties and many from outside the
state, have been pouring into Glover
recently. Some have stuck to. the job,
while others soon become dissatisfied
and move on. 1t is claimed that more
than twenty laborers left Saturday
morning, moving toward Mountain Is
land in Castor county, where a large
dam is being built by the Southern
Power company. The story is that the
negroes had come to Glover expecting
to make 81 a day, but when pay day
came it figured $3.50 a day. Expect
ing to get higher wages in the next
county they have moved on. The
bosses" of this shifting labor do not
have the easiest jobs, in the world
Last week, according to story, two
laborers were discharged for ineffici-
ency. Immediately about.a dozen Of
their fellow laborers quit as sort Of
sympathetic strike against the dis
charge of the two.

Quarters for Workers.

In company with Chief Of Police
John Jackson, The Enquirer's corre-
spondent took little trip into the
southeastern section ottown Saturday
afternoon for the purpose of looking
on the quarters of the newly acquired
population of Glover. Long bunk
houses have been built to house them.
They are hastily thrown-up shacks,
about ten feet wide and some twenty
five feet long. Thy are covered with
heavy paper. There are twenty hunks
in each shack, two decks on each side
and five to the side.
There is not a sign of window in
either of the two bunk houses visited.
The bunk is row of Stats, q mattress
and Il quilt or two. There are no
springs and the mattress is thin. There
is big stove in the middle of the
bunk house. Several negroes were
asleep in their respective hunks when
the visitors came. They slept with
their clothes on. Most of them always
sleep that way, the correspondent was
informed. They pay $3.50 week each
for board and lodging, the mess hall
being near the bunk houses. Good
thing you did not come down here
when the house was full of labCrers
and the stove was going full blast, "
commented the chief; both of us
might have been overcome" 1t is
probable that 200 or more negroes will
be cared for in these bunk houses
when the construction work gets under
way in full. The chief does not expect
the Golfers of the town of Glover to be
81 eatly swelled through fines collected
from those negroes who are caught
engaging in the great negro game OF
Skin" When their bills are paid they
have little left with which to play skin,

AN EXAMPLE FOR OCALA

Mayor John Martin has instructed
the police of Jacksonville not to &C
cept cash bond of less than $3.50 from
the auto speeders they capture The
highest fine that can be imposed on a
speeder in Jacksonville is $3.50, and
very few of the men who drive cars
recklessly carry that amount on them;
many can't raise it. So such men
must stay in Jail, and the prospects
of night in Jail will take the desire
to speed out of almost any sober man.
1t would not be out of order for
Mayor Peek to issue similar instruc-
lions to the Ocala police. The latest
ordinance gives the recorder author
ity to fine people who break the traf-
fic regulations as high as $500, or give
them a Jail sentence. The traffic ordi-
nances of Ocala are being disregard
ed with entirely too much freedom,
and the offenders, when caught, are
not being punished as severely as
they deserve. Another thing that the
city needs is speed cop. The police
on foot have no chance to catch a
speeder at night unless they shoot at
him, which is something our tender
hearted people wouldn't stand for.
The council need not stand back, on
the question of expense, for live
speed cop could collect his months
salary any one day in the month.

A CONTRAST

George MacKay & Company are re-
modelling one of the rooms in the
Ocala House block, facing the court
house. The work causes the sidewalk
and part of the street to be a right
smart cluttered up; the sidewalk be-
ing sometimes entirely blocked. This
is a necessity, and nobody kicks on it.
But Saturday before last, little be-
fore quitting time, the force went to
work and partly cleared the sidewalk,
as much as possible, so the people
could use it over Sunday. The same
was repeated last Saturday. Every
evening almost the sidewalk is made
passable. Nothing is left sticking out
to trip people up or tear their clothes.
According to the law in building
operations, MacKay & Company
might leave that sidewalk blocked
from the time they began work on it
until it was Finished; that is, if they
worked continuously. If they had to
lay off any length of time, they of
course should be required to clear the
way until work recommended.
But George MacKay hasn't waited
for the law. He wouldn't like for
another man to unnecessarily block
street or sidewalk he had to use. So
he doesn't do unto others as he
wouldn't want others to do unto him.
A little further north along that
street, building has been going up
for the best part of two years, and
there is little prospect of its being
completed for the best part of another
two years. Ever since work COM
menced on it, the streets and side
walks by it have been in a clutter,
North Main particularly. Nobody
would complain of this if it was nee
essary. But it hasn't been necessary
half the time. Every once in while
the men quit work, go off and leave
everything lying just as they dropped
it on the tick of the watch. Or they
will go to work on another part of
the building and leave the sidewalk
blocked or half blocked. About
year ago, the sidewalk was blocked
for several weeks. The people had
to walk out in the street. Right
where they were most likely to walk,
a plank with nails sticking up out or
it was left lying for weeks. Re
monstrance was made and no attention
paid to it. 1t wasn't removed until
the city marshal ordered it removed.
A few weeks later the men trundling
material into the building laid a plank
across the sidewalk to roll their
wheelbarrows on. This was all right
as long as they were using it. When
