Editor Watehman and Soalthron:
Knowing the interest which the newspapers
on line of our road have always taken IN the
development Of the couotry ard the welfare
of our people, enclose yoa copy OF circular
letter which We have mailed TO the farmers
on lire of the Charleston Samter and North
ern Railroad, aud hope you will give US the
aa istance of your Journal TO excite interest
insthis important subject
Our people have always planted cotton,
and until within the last few years have
planted i, to the exclusion OF ell other crops.
A review Of the cotton market for the past
Two years shows gradual but steady decline
in the price of this staple, until to-day We
fod It bringing far less that the actual cost
of production.
This STATE of affairs cannot long continue,
and the farmer must look for some other
product which will prove more profitable
Not only is the farmer interested but every
merchant, every newspaper, every railroad,
and IN fact every business interest is vitality
concerned. for on the success or failure OF the
farmer depends The prosperity or poverty OF
the country
We shall have present at the meeting men
Who have been engaged in water melon rais-
ing and will endeavor to give those who
attend all the information which can be
desired. We hope there will be large
attendance and feel sure that it will result in
good TO sll. Yours truly,
E. u. AvERILL.

Alasl The Tourists.

Louis Cole and Fred Singleton, two color
ed men. Of Ssateburg Township, near Rafting
Greek, were arrested under Warrant Sunday
for disposing Of cop under lien to Ar.
8. F. Lenoir. Cole and Singleton took it
into their heads to visi, a winter resort in
Florida and boarded The A.. c. L. train at
the Camden Crossing. Some one got wind
of their prospective tour to the land OF
orange blossoms and ailigators. Unfortu-
nately for the winter tourists, Sheriff Marion
Sanders was on the same train, returning
from Columbia, where be had gone to take a
lunatic. When the train reached Wedgs6eld
the warrant was given to him With the IN
formation that the winter tourists were on
the same: train bound for Florida. The sheriff
arrested them both, postponed their Florida
trip and they are now temporarily waiting
in the Sumter County hotel. They will not
behold the Ponce de- Leon Hotel for few
winters, if rnmor be true, but will probably
enjoy the bree1es on The banks of the Conga-
rec.

Mr.. Leslie Brown spent Saturday in town
and lett for his home about dark. He took
the Moses road, which goes across Rocky
Bluff Swamp. When going through the
swamp, he saw two colored men standing on
the side of the road As he drove up TO them,
one of them yelled to him to halt. One OF
the men then seized the bride reins and stop
ped the horse. The other crswled up behind
on the buggy. Fortunately Ar Brown was
driving .esy spirited, horse. He gave the
horse cut with whip. and the horse leaped

Preacher-Politician and a Hog,


Roy Robertson, (Big Mouth Roy) we'll.
known colored man, who has been posing as
q local preacher, class leader, ETC., for num-
ber Of years, is now in the soup, OF rather
the swamp, when last seen. He was then en-
deavoring to outrun load of shot.
Mr.. W. E. Minis had hog stolen from him
Saturday night Mr.. Minis lives at the old
Mason place, just within the suburbs on the
south side of the city. Roy Robinson also
lived somewhere near Mr.. Minis and be sus-
picioped Ro, as the man who stole bis hog.
Sunday eight he sent to the city for Assistant
Chief Weeks to come out who, on his return
gave us the following account of what hap
pened: Assistant Chief Weeks accompanied
by Mr.. Aims and another party went to Roy's
house and searched it and the surrounding
premises, bat discovered no trace Of hog meat.
They then psocured light and went to q
swamp near Roy's house and found where
hog had been butchered but did not arrest
Roy. The party then bads Roy good night
and the chief came back to the city, but told
Mr.. Minis and his friend to 90 back to the
swamp aud hide and watch for Roy, as be was
pretty certain the pork was somewhere in
that swamp and that Roy would be apt to 60
there during the night to get it out. This
they did, and sure enough Roy came to the
swamp and began to dig in the ground, and
soon dug up the hog which had been put iD a
box a d nicely covered over with straw, etc.
They attempted to take Roy in, but be got the
start on them and took to the swamp bare
footed and without any coat. They fred
three shots at him as he ran, but they do not
think they hit him. Roy is still at large.

To the Formers on Line Of the CAarIeston,
Sumter 4 Northern r. r.:

AGENTS to Sumter at regular rates, but all
who attend meeting will be provided with

Our soil is peculiarly adapted to the pro-
duction of watermelons and potatoes, and
when we consider the wonderful results at
tanned in Barnwell and Aiken Counties from
the cultivation of watermelons, and realize
that where less than ten years ago not q
melon was raised for shipment, they now
ship over three thousand cars during the
months of July and August, thus putting in
circulation over three hugdred thousand
dollars at time of the year when ready
money is in the greatest demand, we should
not hesitate TO take some action which will
result in their cultivation.
The meeting will be held in the Court
House at IL o'clock noon, and it is earnestly
desired that as many as possible attend. The
railroad is 10 earnest, and we can demon
strate TO you tha, with proper effort on your
