Rock Hill, S. April 20, 1907. Rock Hill's Spot Cotton Market. April 19, 1907. Middling Strict Middling.

.11 Good 1 Middling .11 Is Rock Hill to stand idle and say, we are not going to have a league team here this year No, for we believe the citizens, as a general rule, want Rock Hill to be in the inter-state league. Some people are of the opinion that it's too late to get into the league but we are in position to state that it is not too late. The season will open the 1st of June and we believe it is the desire of most of the people living in the liveliest city of the Piedmont section of South Carolina, "Rock Hill," to be there with the goods. We have always taken an active part in public affairs in the past and we have never attempted to do anything that we did not accom-' plish great things, therefore, why can we not put our shoulders to- gether once again and take a leading part in league ball this year? As stated before, Mr. Weeks, the former manager of the Camden club, who won the penant last year, is in our midst and is very anxious to land: a team here.

He is in position to secure professional players at but very little cost, provided, of course, we do not put the thing off, but instead, go to work at once. The towns that have entered the league so far are, Spartanburg, Greenville, Anderson, Sumter and Darlington and it would sound good to us to hear Rock Hill included in the list. We would suggest to the Chamber of Commerce that at their next meeting Mr. Weeks be asked to appear and make a talk on Rock Hill's possibilities of getting into the league. Mr.

Weeks is of the opinion that Rock Hill is self-supporting where base-ball is concerned and we are of the opinion that the money required to support the team, or to start the team off, could be secured dead easy. We sincerely hope the Chamber will consider this matter and at as early a date as possible have Mr. Weeks with them so that the whole thing may be discussed in a satisfactory man- ner. Over In Yorkville. Special to The Herald.

Yorkville, April -Judge Chas. G. Dantzler, who presides at the term of court now in session at Yorkville, is no stranger in our midst. He has held court here before this term, and when a young man, he was a student under Col. Asbury Coward, at the Kings Mountain school in our town.

So he has a good many friends here who are pleased to meet him, and congratulate him on his elevation to the honorable position he now holds and fills with so much dignity and ability. Dr. T. B. Kell, wife and little daughter, Ella, of Fort Lawn, Chester county, arrived in Yorkville on Thursday, to make this their future home.

Dr. Kell is associated with Dr. W. G. White, a prominent physician of this place, in the practice of medicine.

Dr. Kell and family will board for the present with Mr. and Mrs. Geo. T.

Schorb, parents of Mrs. Kell. Jr 0. U. A M.
