Protesting against the proposed re classification of freight rates by Southern railroads, the Greenville chamber of commerce through its board of directors, has gone on rec ord as being strongly opposed to the suggested changes. It was pointed out that in view of the advanced freight rates the proposed changes in classifications would resuit in in creases on some commodities of as much as 100 cent or more. That women teachers should re ceive the same pay as men is the opinion of Judge J. W. Devore, now presiding over the court of general sessions. "A woman should receive l as much pay as a man for the same work." says Judge Devore. "They are entitled to it and there's no good reason why they shouldn't get it."

Blease that he will not cast his ballet in the Democratic pri maries this year because he can not pledge himself to support the na tional presidential nominee.

High Grade Tobacco High Timmonsville. —High grades of to bacco are continuing to bring excel lent prices on this market. Quite a •lot cf it was sold for 83 cents a pound.

Late -if night and before san up one constant ly hears the ruble oftobaceo wagons on their way to the warehouses pre paratory to unloading their tobacco for the earliest sale* Tffl™ ISSUE BOTH OLD PARTIES FAVOR THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW LIKE ANY OTHER WETS SEE NO HOPE THERE Hence They Are Concentrating Their Efforts on Congressional Elections in Many Districts, With Slim Chances of Success. By JAMES P. HORNADAY. Washington. —Prohibition is not to be an issue in the presidential cam paign. So far as the public declara tions of the two old parties are con cerned, either one of them, if success ful, will favor the enforcement of the law, just as it will favor the enforce ment of other federal laws. Neither party in convention was willing to make any promises whatsoever >with respect to the modification of the en forcing legislation, and it is iwettj well understood that the presidential nominees will go through the cam paign without making any pledges along this line. The wet interests were somewhat disappointed over this failure to ob tain any measure of support from either of the old political parties. These interests bad hoped that one or the other of the parties would get be hind modifying legislation. The fail ure of both to come to the rescue of the wets has convinced a good many persons, who were not entirely con vinced before the national conventions were held, that prohibition is here to stay. They arrive at this decision through reasoning that the longer the prohibition amendment is in effect, the more difficult it will be to undo the work it is performing. It is con ceivable. say persons who take this view of the situation, that if either of the party conventions had taken a definite stand against prohibition in its present form, say for instance a stand in support of the manufacture of light wines and beers, the prohibi tion structure might have been par tially broken down. But since neither party is willing to assume the re sponsibility of attacking the amend ment or the legislation under which It Is enforced, it is regarded as prac tically certain that 110 attempt in the future to set aside prohibition will avail anything. Wets Going After Congressmen This all does nrtt mean that the ad vocates of modified enforcing legisla tion art? to remain idle; it does not mean that the distillery and brewery interests and the saloon interest, whatever there may be left of it, have abandoned all hope of eventually ob taining some relief from what they re gard os burdensome conditions. Since the old political parties have declined to have anything to do with any effort to set aside existing conditions, the wets have abandoned plans which they made for conducting a campaign on a national scale, and will concen trate their efforts in a large number of congressional districts. Whatever hope they have of relief is now based on the possibility of obtaining a majority in the next con gress in favor of modifying the Vol stead act. The hopes along this line, it may be said, are not very buoyant; representatives of the national wet organization have only recently com pleted a survey of the field and have reported to headquarters here that, whrle it may be possible to elect a few members of the house of representa tives on (bis issue, it is not at all probable that the new house will favor any worthwhile changes in the Volstead law. Nominations for con gress have in most instances been made, and a careful canvass of the nominees made by the wet interests, so it is learned here, does not offer any encouragement for the wet cause. Little Chance for Them There. In this connection it is pointed out that the nominees for congress in both the old parties are. with a few excep- tions, in.'lined to follow the lead of the national conventions and the pres idential candidates. In other words, they ure disposed to take the view that the prohibition question is settled and that it will be good politics for them not to stir it up in their districts. As for the senate, the wets, so it is asserted, are of the opinion after study ing that phase of the situation that they can hardly expect to bring about changes in that body that will be of genuine assistance to their cause. Now that the senatorial nominations have for the most part been made by both the old .parties, it is foreseen, it is asserted, that the new senate, re gardless of which of the old parties shall control it, will in all probability be as sfrons for prohibition as is the present senate. In spite of the general situation, as the politicians in both the old po litical parties see it. some of the more radical Advocates of prohibition are inclined to be uneasy lest something might happen to prohibition as the result of the presidential election. This uneasiness, or this inclination to be on the safe side, has led the Anti- Saloon league to issue orders for a nation-wide campaign cf observation I and resistance against any effort to j weaken prohibition. The third partv Prohibitionists also decline to accept i the view that there are no danger sig ! tiais out. and -MI have put up a presi j .initial ticket for the purpose of hold -1 ing the members of that party to gether.

HAD USE FOR HIS MILLION Zeb Would at Least Employ It to Good j Advantage, as Far as It Would Go. A party of baymen gathered round the stove in a little oyster shack on the Great South bay started the old. old question of what they would do if they suddenly came into possession of $1,000,000. Some bought great ocean-going yachts; others endowed schools, and one even offered to eon tribute his to help out the govern ment. The question finally eame round to old Zeb Banks, noted as the ne'er-do well of the fishing neighborhood. "And now, Zeb, you've been keeping pretty quiet," one of them said. "Just what'd you do if you had a million dol lars?" "Well. T don't know 'zactly," re sponded Zeb reflectively as lie sp:it at the stove.
