"cooD FOR CAROLINA"

Under this head here IS what the
Augusta Chronicle says ofthe Carollna
exhibit for the Exposition:
THE Carolina wing of the ENpnsl-
ton building will be something we'll
worth study. 1t is 4 majestic work.
The great pyramid will be etched along
its basic columns with different colored
stones and minerals. The sides will be
panelled in fine wood and polished
cabinet work. Surmountiug the pavll-
ion is a cap piece in grain, crowning the
position like benediction. The caro-
lima men have gotten their exhibit
nearer completion than any other de-
partnent in the hail.
We have not heard Of Newberry
making any preparations for an exhibit
at this Exposition. When we get our
Three Cs we will be close to Augusta,
and we should let the people Know
what a rich county we have over here

TILLMAN CALLS AGAIN.
The Farmers Association TO Meet in Col

The Farmers Association TO Meet in Col
umbia November 14th, 1888.
To THE FARMERS OF SOUTH CARO-
LIMA:
Two years ago last April there as
sembled in Columbia the first Farm
erS' Convention.
It was composed of representative
men from nearly every county, and de-
manded certain reforms in our educa-
tional system and in the management
ofour State government.
The November following another
Farmers Convention met and entered
into a permanent organization, under
the name of the Farmers Association
of South Carolina.
This association then and there re-
iterated the demands of the first con-
vention as to the need of agricultural
education in this State, and pressed
other reforms in the government, some
Of which have been granted and others
refused. That the agitation inaugurated
by this movement has been of vast ben
etit to the agricultural interests of our
State no one will deny, and continu-
ance of the agitation is only necessary
to crown our efforts with success.
Therefore, in issuing this call to our
brother farmers to meet again, we feel
that We can point with satisfaction to
what we have accomplished as an earn
est Of what We hope to accomplish in
the future with united and continued
efforts.
The next meeting of the Farmers
Association will be held in Columbia,
in Agricultural Hall, Wednesday night,
Nov. 14th, at s O'Clock p. III.
Each County is entitled to send five
delegates, and the Executive Commit
tee urgently request that full delega-
tions from every County be present.

GEORGIA CENTRAL SCOOPED.
The Richmond Terminal Combination.
Adds 2 800 Miles Of Railroad to Its
Vast System.

New YORK, October 222.-The Rich
mond Terminal Company to-day con-
sidered a proposition from the holders
of Georgia Central stock buy control
c. that property. An optic ! had been
given on the entire stock ofthe Georgia
company, and it was decided, after a
short session, to buy the control. a
committee consisting John G. Moore,
J. II. Hall and w. 5. Chisholm was
appointed to arrange the transfer ofthe
property.
Almost the entire capital stock Of
Georgia Central is controlled by a
Georgia company, which was organized
for the purpose, and by the purchase
of the Georgia company's stock the
Richmond Terminal will add 2,5OO
miles Of road to their system, making
the mileage for Richmond Terminal
about 5000 miles. Parties to the deal
say the sale was forced on the syndicate
holding stock, and the parties who
bought it at the time Gen. Alexander
was elected President got cut about
even.

s,-pporT1SG LOCAL PAPERS.

The people of Radford will not look
in the direction Of advertising the to"n.
They will even attempt to cripple thelr
town paper by patronizlng ofhces OF
other towns with their job work ana SO
forth. Still everyone expects the
Democrat to boom Radford for all ltS
worth -Radford (Va.) Democrat.
We have seen many cases OF TINS
kind, and some business men seem 10
be incapable of appreciating the tact
that every good local paper does us
town ten times as much good as 1t IS
ever paid for. Men having large inter
ests in town and deeply concerneu as
to its progress often try 10 see no" hIIle
they can do for their own Local papers.
The papers Of the South are to-day 40
ing far more for the good OF ther
country than they receive credlt 1oI.
Day after day and week after week
they are telling Of its advantages OF
soil, climate and minerals and OF It's
progress. The facts which they give
are widely published III other papers,
and thus the good work is carried Tar
beyond their Immediate circle OF read
ers. The Manufacturers Record has
often noted with admiration the great
work that Southern papers are DONG,
and regretted to see how poorly IN many
cases they are supported by the people
whose interests they are serving
Manufacturers Record.
There is much truth in both OF the
above observations. Some people ma
fault with the local papers If they are
not continually writing up tue town
and vet never do anything themselves
towards helping the papers III the way
of advertising and even in some cases
send abroad to have their job work
done, when they could secure the same
work at home for even less than they
nav for it elsewhere, all Of which Is legl-
innate if they desire to DO it. We 40
not refer to this in any spirit Oh fault
finding, but we desire to show the vaIue
that should be placed upon the local
papers. 4 town without local paper
is somewhat of dead town, yet some
people do not appreciate the local
papers, we fear, as they should. Simply
this and nothing more.

A Prohibition Victory.

WASHINGTON. October 22.-The Su-
preme Court to-day sustained the con-
stitutionality of the prohibition law of
Iowa. The point at issue was the right
to manufacture intoxicating liquors
solely for expectation to other States
despite State law, and it was pleaded
that the prohibitory feature, SO far as
the manufacture for expectation is con-
cerned, was in conflict with constitution
nal provisions giving Congress hesole
right to regulate interstate commerce.
The case is that of I. S. Kidd, a distiller,
plaintiff in error, VS.. ]. E. Pearson and
S. J. Loughras. The court holds that
the State law prohibiting both the
manufacture and sale except for me-
chanical, medicinal, culinary and sa-
cramental purposes, is not in conflict
with the Interstate commerce provi-
sion of the Constitution, and the deci-
sion of the Iowa court is sustained.
Opinion by Justice Lamar.

The Georgia, Carolina and Northern Rail
road Reaches Chester.
Especial to the Register.

Chester, Oct. 20.-The track laying on
the Georgia, Carolina and Northern
Railroad has reached town. The first
whistle on this new road sounded for
the first time within the corporate linn
its to-day. The work all along has been
forwarded as rapidly as possible consis-
tent with the excellent character of the
work. There is nothing ''shoddy"
about it. The bridge spanning the Ca
tawba River near the junction with the
Three C'sis said to be ore of the finest
and most substantial pieces of work in
the South, costing $S0,OOG. 1t does look
from the strong build of this road
throughout it will be almost everlast-
ing. The grading is broad, even and
perfect, the ties are large,of uniform
size and of the best heart pine, while
the rails are Of the best steel
weighing sixty pounds to the foot.
This will be a grand road for Chester, be-
cause it not only furnishes u competing
line Of railway, but opens up new out
let to the sea, and, through the syndi-
Gates, steamship lines to Liverpool
and the great Eastern markets. The
new depot building of this road here is
completed ready for freights. 1t is 12O
by 40 feet. The agents office is pretti-
ly finished, havinga succession of single
sash glass windows about six inches
apart, making almost solid glass inclo.
sure, giving the agent the advantage Of
an oversight of all transactions in the
spacious wareroom without leaving his
office. Our enterprising citizen, Mr.. E.
p. Moore, has been appointed agent. A
large cotton platform is being con-
structed.
Some agitation has been given the
matter of giving a public demonstration
or reception upon the completion of the
Georgia, Carolina and Northern road to
this place. 1t seems such would be nice
and proper-to give expression of well
come in some manner. Besides Chester
cannot afford to to be behind Iorkville
and Rockville and other sister town in
this respect. To be so might exhibit a
lack of enterprise and public spirit, and
this charge should not be laid at our
door

Snow in Nebraska.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., Oct. 2l-
Snow fell steadily for several hours to-
day. This is the earliest snow storm
here known to the settlers. Throught-
out northern Iowa snow fell this after
noon.
Covers the Ground OF Minnesota, Iowa and
Dakota.
MINNEAPoLIs, October 22.-There
was heavy snow storm in Northern
Minnesota yesterday, and "the beau
tiful snow" lies deeper in that section
than at any time before at this season
for six years. At Tower the snow is
thirteen inches deep, and in the woods
back of Eli it lies twelve inches on a
level. There was no wind, and conse-
ouently no drifting. Some snow fell
in Central Minnesota and Northern
Dakota Saturday, but it melted almost
as soon as it fell. 1t showed all yester-
day at Fargo, but reports from there
say there is little on the ground. There
was no snow here. In Northern Iowa
there were slight f1urries of snow, but
at no point is the depth reported more
than two inches deep, and that is
melting. The weather here is mild.

SILLY SIOUN.
Lhc Big Inj uns" Refuse the Fathers Lib
eral Offer for their Lands.

WASHINGTON, October 20.-Secreta
rv Villas said to-day that the Sioux
chiefs had formally notified him that
they had rejected by large majority
the propositions made by the President
through the secretary last Wednesday.
They submitted a counter proposition
agreeing to accept $l,25 per acre-the
money to be paid at once. This propo-
sition, the secretary declared, could not
for moment be entertained by the
Government. \ small minority signi-
fled their willingness to accept the pro-
position.
This concludes all negotiations under
the new law, which were opened by
the appointment of the Sioux commits
sion. The chiefs were presented to the
President this afternoon and will leave
for the reservation tomorrow.
Secretary Villas expressed the opin-
ion that one Of the principal reasons for
the rejection Of his proposition was the
fact that the execution of thelaw would
break up the tribal nations, thus de-
priving the present chiefs of their au-
thOrity.

R. through the town and the commit
tee is active raising the money. We
have never thought it was right for the
railroad to ask any further help from
this town or township, but if citizens
desire to subscribe no one can object.
We are glad of one thing, that the
railroad can have no further excuse for
delaying the work on our division. We
have believed that the right Of way
through town was only raised as an
excuse for delaying work and now that
through the liberality of citizens more
money has been subscribed, we expect
to see the contract let for grading this
division at an early date.

Taylor and Col. J. \. Grayson, Of
Hutchinson, with selling them out to
Ulysses, and seized and were threaten
ing to lynch them, when the sheriff
and large posse arrived. Each town
is said to have put up $4,000 forfeit not

the Ulysses men began spending money
to buy votes. The Appomattox men
then seized Taylor and Grayson, who
had been managing the campaign for
them, forced them to sign warranty
deeds for all their property, as well
checks for $50, 900 on all banks where
the two had money. Payment on the
checks has been stopped and proceeding
will be commenced to set aside the deeds
