The Quarry Capacity to be
Doubled.

The information that the quarry
at Parkhill is soon to be enlarged is
very gratifying information to the
people of Edgefeld and Trenton. At
present from six to eight cars week
are shipped but the management is
arranging to double the capacity at
once SO as to be able to ship from IL
to Is cars a week. Mr.. W. B. Janli-
son, the capable manager, told the
representative Saturday.
that contract has just been made
to ship $4,000 tons of jetty stone to
Jacksonville. In fact so great is the
demand for stone that orders are be-
ing turned down without price being
quoted. Such a large volume of busi-
ness means much to the management
of the quarry, to every business in
terest in this vicinity and to the
Southern railroad, which will receive
freight on the entire haul to Jack
sonville on this heavy tonnage.

MIR. Whatley Writes Further
of Stills and Violators of
q the Law.
Editor Advertisers:

Editor Advertiser:
feel that I have a claim on the
old Advertiser. / am now on the
shady side Of 65 and the first paper
I ever remember seeing was the Ad-
vertiser, and the first paper l ever
read was the Edgefeld Advrtiser.
During the Civil War, while my faith
er was with the colors my dear old
mother read the Advertiser and my
father was subscriber for about so
years and up till his death in 1887.
For years after my fathers death
I was reader of the old paper but
after moving to North Augusta 1
followed after strange and daily pa
pers, but now I am returning to my
first love and want it in my house the
balance of my few days. Before my
dotage I used to enjoy writing for
the old Advertiser but now it is hard
for me to command words to express
the thoughts that pass through my
infertile brain.
Last week I wrote in regard to
State Constable Scott going dis
tances to capture bootleggers and
stills. Mr.. Scott asks me TO say that
if the good people of Aiken and
Edgefeld will keep, him informed in
regard to law. breakers and stills
that hey,iLl endeavor to have them
caught ii he himself, cannot answer
the calls. His address is Ernest L..
Scott, North Augusta, S. C. Always
give as near as possible the location
of these stills and who is thought to
be running them.
These Hades boilers must be brok-
en- up or the future young men,
many of them, will sta&;ger in the
footsteps of their drunken fathers
who have passed to the beyond from
whence no traveller ever returned. 1t
is passing strange to me that men
who claim to have brains will persist
in manufacturing devil water that
will send men down to perdition
where they will suffer throughout
eternity. And stranger still, is, that

great minds do not put heavier pen

The First Woman Senator 81
Protection and Prohibition. 4

Mrs. VIM. .H. FELTON,; the first EST
United States woman senator; 4shd
Germany years eli Il a ID
many good works and words in Geor-
gia, in the course Of an interview
printed in the Baltimore Sun gave
emphatic endorsement of a protec-
tive tariff and of prohibition. On
these questions she said:
"We of the South should hail a
protective tariff as real blessing.
We cannot expect our industries to
thrive if we allow foreign 'manufac-
turers to come into our country with
their goods made with labor 10 to 20
times as cheap as we are able to get
it and undersell US.
"Our manufacturing in the South
is n it's Infancy. We need to stand
by and help. And, unless we can sell
our goods cheaper than a man from
China or Japan, Germany or France,
we cannot hope to see them grow.
"There's our cotton. We are just
beginning to see how much more val
liable it is going to be to us when we
get our own mills to spinning so that
we won't have to ship it way up to
New England and then buy it back
at 20 times the price we were paid
for it. What if Japan, with her labor
costing practically nothing, could
bring manufactured cotton goods in
to our country and sell on an equal
footing with our own mills-how
long would our plants survive.
"Pd vote every time for tariff
that protects"
Mrs. Felton's views on prohibition
are straightforward. In a single syl-
liable she quickly answered a ques-
tion pu t to her regarding agitation
for the moderation of theVolstead
act.
"No," she answered quickly.
Mrs. FELTON, said: "Pd a million
times rather cut off my good right
arm than see whisky brought back
into our country. Or, for that matter,
see that splendid prohibition act
modified in any degree.
eff you could have lived when
was young and could have seen the
wretchedness it brought to many,
many homes right here in our own
country, you couldn't ask me if
would like to see it even modified.
Prohibition! God bless that glo-
rious congress that made it law in
our land to prevent the use Of intox-
icants in any way whatever!'-Man-

Cooperative Plan Upheld in
Courts.

Sweeping victories for cooperative
marketing were won in the courts of
|North CAROLINA, Texas and Oklahoma
during the past week, according to
issued yesterday by the
South Carolina Cotton Growers CO.
Operative association. In Texas and
Oklahoma the cotton contracts,
which are practically identical with
|tfe contract signed by members of
the South Carolina association were
upheld by the courts and permanent
|injunctions granted restraining men,
Aers.$of those associations from dis
posing Of their cotton except through
|the association. Temporary injunc-
lions had been secured against six
members in Texas and against sever
|alsin Oklahoma some time back.
|sE S. In North Carolina desperate ef-
fort was made by enemies of the Tri-
State Tobacco association to have
dissolved an injunction which had
fbeen issued against two members Of
the association. Several of the ablest
lawyers in the state were employed
m the court to have the contract de-
clared unconstitutional, but the
|court in it's decision made the in
| junction permanent, declaring the
contract sound, according to infor-
nation given out by the association.
Very great interest was taken by
South Carolinians in the North Caro-
lima hearing. The attempt to have the
injunction dissolved was made be-
fore Judge Frank Daniels. H. G. Con-
ner, Jr., of Wilson, chief counsel for
}those attacking the legality of con-
tract, argued that the association
was aimed to create monopoly and
that it was combination in restraint
Of trade.
The tobacco association has now
instituted suits against the persons,
who sold their tobacco outside Of the
association for five cents a pound Ii
lquidated damages.

In that case the farmers must revert

have no voice in that. One year they

cotton and the next year six, and

Court. of Common Pleas.

The fall term of court Of common
pleas convened Monday morning
with Judge Townsend presiding. The
first case called was the suit Of G. w.
Vansant against Clarence Lott to
recover damages alleged to have re-
suited to an automobile in collision
A verdict Of s85 and actual dam
ages was rendered in favor of the
plaintiff who was represented by B.
w. Crouch If the Saluda bar and j.
VIM. Thurmond. The defendant was
represented by T. B. Greneker.
The suit2ofgB gBeasseys Shoe 81 ssorpsniaass
of Lynchburg, Va, against j. A.
Hamilton resulted in verdict of
s2O6 for the plaintiff, which was.
represented by Sheppard Bros. NJ
G. Evans represented the defendant.
The court was engaged all of yes
terday with a suit against the Peo-
pies Oil Mill of Johnston for $4,000
brought by Augustus Frasier
through James Frasier, his guardian
ad litem, for damages alleged to-
have resulted through the operation
of a machine while working for the
defendant company. A verdict was
rendered in favor of the oil mill,
which was represented by j. VIM.
Thurmond. The plaintiff was repre-
sented by S. MEG. Simkins, N. G.
Evans and C. T. Burnett.
At the hour of going to press to-
day the court is engaged with the
suit of the Eank of Parksville
against E. B. Dorm to recover the
sum of $4,000 alleged to be due on
certain notes. 1t appears that Mr.
Dorm gave notes to the Fisheries.
Products Company of Wilmington,
N. c., for stock in the company and
later the Bank of Parksville purchas-
ed the notes. Mr.. Dorm takes the po-
sition that the notes were obtained
from him through fraud and there
fore refuses payment. The Bank OF
Parksville is represented by W. K.
Charles of the Mccormick bar and
Mr.. Dorm is represented by j. VIM.
Thurmond. The outcome of the cases
will be watched with interest, as it.
is said there are other persons in the
county who gave notes for stock as
Mr. Dorm did.
The civil court will probably COM
plete it's work by Friday night and
there will be no court next week.
