Cost of the Trial Of the Col
Teton Lynchers.

The Aiken Recorder has this to
say about the cost of the recent trial
of the Coleton lvnchers
GAS an item of information it may
be interesting to our readers to learn
what the trial of the Colleton County
lynchers cost this county. We can
give the information which was OBJ
tanned from the county commission
er's office The case was on the
criminal docket for the June and
October terms. At the June term a
large number of witnesses were
brought up from Coleton to Aiken,
but the trial did not take place. The
expense at this time footed up about
$500. At the October term the trial
came off and the cost foots up
5000. 20-making total of about
1880 which the county of Colleton
owes to Aiken This lynching bee
has proven quite expensive to the
taxpayers of Colleton The 81 500
paid out by Aiken in only a part OF
the cost that Colleton has to pay

TO CHANGE The NAME.
The Plan to Change The ''U.
G.. "" to The sc. S. A"

Last July 10 Richmond at the re-
union of the Confederate veterans the
body. upoa toe presentation of a me-
mortal from Camp 435, of Augusta, Ga
suggesting that the name of the organl
cation be changed from the United
Confederate Veterans to that of the
Confederate Survivors Association. .
so that the beloved c S. A {" can be
used and perpetuated, instructed the
adjutapt general by resolution to seod
the memorial to all cam ps in the organl-
cation with the request that they act
upon the matter before the next con :
vep.ion of the veteraos. which vii! be
held iu Nashville. Tenn. 90 May I, 8
aud 9 next.
The Augusta camp maistalus that the
original reason for adopting the name
..United Confederate Veterans has
now ceased to exist. 1t vas for the
prevention of confusing the general or
gauizatiops of survivors then kno"n
as associations They maintain that
the term u. G "" has no history
aud no precious memories of the past
attached to it. Should dead comrades
come to life they would not recognize
the present insignia But The &c $
A +" would ever be recognized aud re-
garded With affection. The &c. S. As"
meaning is too we'll known to need a
word as TO its appropriateness. 1t
stands first to the Confederate States OF
America and then for the Confederate
States army. Why not let the te"
who remain of that army have the name
they love SO dearly lp such light
was the matter presented.
Now as time is flying the Augusta
caup has once more begun to push the
matter and is writing letters to toe va
rious camps asking them to act upon
the suggestion. Such letter has been
received here and camp Hampton will
doubtless pass upon the suggestion at
its next meeting. The other camps in
this State will likely pass upon the mat
ter of the proposed change 10 tie next
