Alleged Errors in Report of County Delegation Meeting Held Last Saturday Requested Corrected Difference of Opinion Exists as to MatenKuts jn Re-AppointiiH'iit of Member of Registration Hoard. In re a report of the county delegation meeting of last Saturday, published In Sunday's Issue of the Greenville Daily News, where it was Baid that Senator Mauldin quoted Governor Blease as saying over the telephone that morning that Mr. J.

M. Ferguson was appointed successor to Col. Crittenden on the county Hoard of liegistration upon the recommendation of Representative Earle, the following correspondence has been handed The News for publication: State of South Carolina, Executive Chamber, Columbia, May 30th, 1911. Hon. Wilton H.

Earle, Greenville, South Carolina. Dear Sir: I am enclosing copy of a letter which I have this day mailed to Senator W. L. Mauldin, and which is self explanatory. 1 am surprised that he should have dragged your name into this controversy.

Mr. Ferguson told me positively that you told him that you could not endorse him because you had endorsed another. Along with what I said to Senator Mauldin, Mr. Ferguson further said that you stated that you had no objection to his having the position and would endorse him had you not previously It Ik Conservatively Kstjiuated That Fully Oue Hundred and Fifty Homes Are rndrr Construction In Greenville and Her Suburbs, Indicating Healthy Increase, in l'opulation as Well as General Prosperity, With the approach of summer has come a remarkable increase in building activities in Greenville and vinicity. an Increase that must be charged to many accounts, but possibly the chief cause is the decided prosperity in this section as a result of general activity In construction wirk of all kinds, and a bright trade outlook.

During the past four or five weeks the permits for building will aggregate many thousands of dollars, a sum that seems incredible for a city of 30.0UU people, especially when there has been no lull in that line for years. The bulk of these building permits have been for places of residence and not for Investment, though some money has been put into structures that are to reap an interest and that will be erected for the purpose of a per cent on surplus capital. As a usual thing the big buildings go in as separate and distinct items, for of the larger and more commodious structures there can be no specifications in most cases. A most gratifying feature of any city, however, is its homes, and a true' barometer of a town or city, a social, religious and commercial gauge, may be had in the home list and the home living. Regarding the present built and occupied homes or residences, it can be said that they seem to increase the desire among -J 7 A full line of the ''North Star" Refrigerators just received, as good as the best, acd "Better Than most."

I j. Mauldin. Greenville, South Carolina. Dear Sir: I notice by the Greenville Daily News that it is stated that you told Mr. Earle that I had said that he recommended Mr.

Ferguson for appointment to fill the unexpired term of Col. Crittenden on your County Board of Registration. Of course, I did not: believe this, as I do not believe all I see in the newspapers, hut I am surprised that you have not come out and corrected it. I made no such statement to you; but, on the contrary, stated to you distinctly, over the phone, that Mr. l'erguson had come to me and (old me that Mr.

Earle stated that the delegation would not meet to make any recommendation and cit ed him to certain sections of the statutes which made it unnecessary for them to meet. The interview liuhlished from this city, from the same article of The News, stated my position correctly and just as I stated it to you. 1 am mailing a copy of this letter to Mr. Earle, with the permission that he publish it in the Greenville News and to secure a statement frdm Mr. Ferguson to the same effect' Very respectfully, COLE L.

1911. The Editor Greenville Daily News. Dear Sir: I read the letter of Mr. Wilton 11. Earle, published in your issue of Tuesday with reference to my appointment on the board of registration of this county, which letter was written in view of an article published in your issue of Sunday, the 28th, and have also read the letter received from Governor Elease by Mr.

Earle, and have also read a copy of the letter sent to Senator Mauldin by Governor I desire to corroborate the governor and Mr. Earle In what they say about my appointment. Yours very truly, JAS. M. FERGUSON.

Greenville: S. June 1, 1911. Editor Greenville 1 In the report of your paper of the proceedings of the meeting of the County Delegation. May 2lh, there were some statements made as to what was purported to have been said, that in fairness, should be corrected. Governor fllease did not state to me over the 'phone that he had made the appointment on the Board of Registration upon the recommendation of any one, nor did I so assert: tils reasons were practically the same as those given in the Daily News' Columbia viz: that he had been informed that the dele-ration would take no action.

I do not attribute any wrong motive on he part of your reporter, but at the same time, he was mistaken in his version of what was said, Please make this correction, and llso publish the following letter: W. L. MAULDIN. Greenville, S. June 1.

1911. Governor Cole L. Columbia. S. C.

Dear Sir: You are entirely correct In the assumption that did not make the statement referred to In your letter, that you made the appointment Alluded to upon the recommendation of any one. I stated lust what you told me over the 'phone, and that only. Mainly that you had been Informed that the delegation would not meet to consider vnur request. Usually i do not make corrections of newspaper reports, unless they" ppear to be made wlllully. hut In this Instance 1 reallae that you have not been reported properly, and It vivnr me pleasure to aid In setting the matter right, as far as I am nncerned.

At the same time, I do not think the reporter wan moved iy a purpose to write down anything inaccurate, While I was aware of the law, and have no doubt that you were also, that authorized you to, make this appointment without consultation with the delegation. I concluded that you had voluntarily done so to get our advice, and then when you adopted another courne, I whs somewhat surprised that you had Informed me of the fact. That small courtesy would have been pleasantly received. Very respectfully W. L.

Is This Is the Mewicst Man? Two strangers met at one of the small tables in a dining car. They found a common bond in the effort to secure something to eat, and by the time the coffee came they etg on friendly terms. "I wonder If you will do me a favor?" said the first one, as he paid his bill. The other man seemed receptive, and the lirst one continued. "Have you a lower berth for tonight?" The man across the table nodded.

"Well. 1 am traveling with my mother, who is rather well along In life, a.nd 1 am anxious to make her comfortable. Would you be willing 'to give her your berth?" "I should be delighted," responded the stranger. They went back to the sleeper, where the accommodating ma.i was presented to the other's mother, a white-haired old lady with a charming face. The Good Samaritan had exchanged his lower berth for the upper, belonging to the old lady, and was radiating with a sense of kindness.

It led him to remark affably to the other man. "Hut where are you going to "Oh, that's all right," was the answer, "that's my lower herth. over there. From Norman E. Mack's National Monthly.

Price GO cents. Foster-Mlllnirn MufTalo, New for the United States. RewHswrtuT thP' name Dran's-wnd taka no other, non-home owners to secure at the earliest convenience some place they may call their home. Men who sell land lots and acreage properties explain It that the desire to own a home has almost become a hobby with many people, a hobby to that extent that extremes are sometimes resorted to that the obpect may be obtained. Some weeks ago an estimate was made that fully one hundred and lifty homes were under construction in various parts of Greenville and suburbs, and now it is estimated that there are still more to come, builders simply waiting for one job to be finished before beginning another.

Some contractors have several houses under way at one time. It is argued that these new homes mean an increase of fifteen to twenty per cent, in Greenville's population. Contractors, builders and carpenters are not the only ones capable of enlightening on the subject of homes, though their knowledge of conditions can always be taken well, inasmuch as they are the clearing house for the merchant and the consumer. The merchant, however, Is feeling the hands of the home holders and realizes that the commercial profit is but the introduction to better ones, the social side of a great city, the worthwhile of a place and peoiile. The building feature of Greenville has become one of wide pubjeity and is growing each week with a regularity and evenness that shows solidity and soundness.

This is according to the men who are at the helm, too, the same men who sell the materials to erect the homes, who furnish the nails and other hardware, who supply the brick and mortar and who furnish the structures as well as introduce the pine tree products. "In dollars and cents the building chapter is one of the important ones in the progress of the city," said a prominent business man a few days ago, "and if we were deprived of the money that Is being spent on homes, the erection of residences, there would be a lot of material men and other fellows who sell things that might have to do on less bulk and considerably less profits. The building proposition is worth the notice of the people of Greenville, and if the present increase in this line continues, this city may safely lay claim to 40.000 souls in much less than five years."

"The issue created by Mr. Bryan was met situurely," said Underwood, chairman id' the ways and means committee which drafted the woolen hill, "and I have thoroughly canvassed the situation today. Mr.

Hryan's attempt to dictate to this house what should do, has made converts to our cause. There are more votes pledged to the committee measure tonight than there were lust night. The issue presented has sent to us some Democratic members who otherwise would have voted against us." Representative Harrison, of New York, a tree raw wool member of the ways and means committee who hus stood steadfastly by Mr. Bryan today answered Mr. Undcrw nod's statement of yesterday.

Mr. Harrison declared that a revision of the cotton schedule Is to follow the wool revision and he estimated that a reduction in cot-tun duties would bring an Increase In revenue of possibly I "Why then," he asked, "from a revenue standpoint, is It necessary to levy a cent of tax on raw wool? "Mr. Bryan Is not trying to dictate to the ways and means committee.
