Shooting at Sellers.

Mr. J. D. Haselden, and four others engaged
In shooting scrape at Sellers one day last
week, as a result OF the recent slanderous
publications In reference to members OF
the Board OF Control. We have not
sought to inform ourself as to who fired the
first shots, or as to who was brave, or who
was otherwise. These questions are or no
concern to US. Whoever may be In the wrong
in the shooting, 1t is certain to our mind that
newspapers which publish scandalous accu'
sations are not blameless.
The dispensary law may be very bad
thing, and the gentlemen OF the Board ol
Control may deserve TO have their lives and
their characters assassinated. but II ls unlaW'
full to shoot them. and 1t is not to the credit
OF either the writer's OF anonymous letters or
the publishers OF such literature that such
acts are provoked.
It seems that neither the Hasedens nor the
Sellers were surprised. They we're we'll
armed, and did not hesitate 10 shoot.
Laws against violations of the peace oi
the State should be enforced, even II those
who are opposed TO the dispensary should
with pen and shot gun assume TO regulate
matters.
The State would be the veriest coward on
the face of the earth, and the members OF the
Legislature would deserve public contempt, II
they should yield to the demand OF those
who would attempt to use force In the repeal
OF a law.
The opponents OF the dlspensary law should
appeal to reason, and not to tho force OF
personal abuse and the use of the shot gun.
II they lay aside reason they need expect no
success In their efforts to make good law
odious.

Cothran, formerly Of Chiles Cross Roads, near
Bradley. He died at his home In Greenwood
Sunday night November 10, 1899. in the sixty
third year of bis age.
In the election of officers for the new County
OF Greenwood he was elected Probate Judge
which position he held until the day OF his
death. Naturally gentle and kind In disposi'
ton, his culture and modesty together with
bis upright living, won for him the love and
respect ofall men. He leayes eight sons and
three daughters.
He was buried at Horeb church yesterday,
and bis virtues are today memory. He has
.'passed from death unto life"

Reduction Of Represent tat ion.


The New York Worlds article on reduction
OF congressional representation from the
South Is interesting. and when all the facts
are considered, we believe that every State in
the Union should be placed on exactly the
same footing. Why should the South be
given more than her fair share of representa-.
tives In congress!
II reduction Of the number Of representa-.
tives from the South should make US free
from friction and embarrassment because OF
the race issues, We would welcome 1t. II 8
reduction Of the representation In Congress
should force Democratic majorlties to respect
the protests Of large minorities In the sdop.
tion OF their platforms we would be glad to
see the number OF Congressman reduced.
Owing to the fact that the white people Of
the South are bound to vote the Democratic
ticket, no matter how dlstasteful the plat
form may be, the feelings and convictions
Of large minorities are disregarded, the ma.
jority running rough shod over the minorities
or course II We had not the race issue as q
menace, the Democratic party would abandon
the l6-to-l proposition. Nobody would be
foolish enough TO believe that such a PROPOSE.
tion would stand the ghost Of chance.
But aside from theinjustice to the minority
there Is not the semblance Of right In count
Ing the ballots of people who are disiran'
chiseds
II 1t were not for the effort to count votes Of
disfranchised negroes the good name Of the
South would not be periodically assailed at
Washington. The defamer of his own peo-
pie would not hope to be rewarded with
f4~ -
effort to count the ballots Of disfranchised
people.
II 1t were not for efforts to count the votes
OF disfranchised people, We would have fewer
riots and less bloodshed in the South.

New Cotton Mill.

= We are pleased to hear that Mr.. Aug. W.
Smith contemplates making OF an effort
TO put up a new cotton mill at Ao'
bevllle. and II he should undertake the
work we hope that our people may give
him generous aid. Four years ago our people
made a united effort 10 build cotton mill,
and the result is known Of all men. There Is
not q better mill on earth than the Abbeville
Cotton Mill, and its success Is now an assured
fact. 1t has money in the treasury, and is
paving a semi-annual dividend OF three per
cent.
None OF our citizens were able to put large
sums into the mill four years ago, but by
united effort the mill has been built. more
than fifty OF our citizens own stock in The
mill. The subscriptions of several were lot
only one share, but that one share came rom
as patriotic impulses as did the larger SUD-
scriptions. Without the smaller subscriptions
the mill would not have been built.
While It is true that many OF our citizens
made sacrifice to build this mill, and while
It 10 true that many are unable, In Justice TO
themselves, to subscribe for another mill, YET
we believe that the beneficial effects result
ing from the presence Of the Abbeville Cotton
Mill are such that many OF our people Will
"lend hand" in the construction ofanother
cotton mill.
Nearly every town that secures one mill, Is
soop the possessor OF another. Towns OF any
pretentions have two newspapers, two banks
two cotton mills, two oil mills. two ginneries.
They seldom 60 single handed, but run In
pairs There is no reason why we should not
get another cotton mill, and we believe that
nobody will subscribe TO 1t more cheerfully
than will the stockholders in the AbbeVille
Cotton Mill.
If our banks will cooperate in the good
work, the new mill can be built Aobeviile
will stand still until another move Is made.
The splendid success of the Abbeville Cotton
Mill is assurance of what can be done. BY
building up the town we help ourselves.

What the People are Doing - Good
Roads-Splendid Creek Crossings.

What the People are Doing - GOOD
Roads-SpIendid Creek Crossings.
One day last week the editor OF the Press
and Banner left town goihg some fourteen
miles In the country, passing many farms on
the way. Nearly all the cotton had been
picked. We saw two mules ploWing on q
farm about three miles from the city. Fur
ther on q hunter and two dogs were seen.
They were actively engaged looking for rao-
bit, which seemed disgusted with their atten-
tion. A great number of people were met,
coming to town.
Later, several men and several dogs were
seen. The men had a gun or two. The dogs
seemed ready for anything. We came upon
lone mule, pulling plow. Next, we passed
a negro going along the road with potatoes In
his hands and the pockets OF his trousers
were stuffed with unwashed tubers stick
Ing out Another lone mule was found plow-
ing. Several other hunters were seen.
The farms looked black from the effects OF
the frost. Several acres in different places
had been sown in small grain. In some
instances cotton was plowed up, where IL
seemed to us many bolls would have opened.
Passing through farms for fourteen miles.
we found, besides the small grain, some
turnip patches.
The roads were In excellent condition. The
crossings at Long Cane and at Norris Creek
were up 10 their recent we'll known standards
OF excellence. We have no fears Of their ever
falling to come up to the former and present
satisfactory condition. The cotton market,
the commercial interests Of AbbeVille, and
the Importance Of the road for citizens be-
yond these streams Is the best guarantee that
these crossings will ever be kept up, to at
least their present standards of excellence.
