RATHER LIGHT WHEAT CROP.

Mr.. II. c. Strauss, of Yorkville, has
Just threshed four acre wheat crop
but be is not doing any Dragging. The
crop cost $40 in all, aud the yield was
only 174 bushels.
In preparing for the crop, Mr.. Strauss
put over the four acres, 200 bushels oi
cotton seed worth $50, S11.70 worth
of acid and kainit, SIS worth of seed,
and other expenses ran the total up to
even $40.
After all, Mr.. Strauss does not think
he is very badly hurt. On account OF
of the Grouth, the fertilizer was not
assimilated, and it remains in the
ground, ready to help along big crop
of peas in the event Of another rain,
and be expects to get from the peas
enough value to pay all expenses,
without leaving the land in worse con-
ditisn than now.
But four bushels of wheat to the
acre on land prepared as Mr.. Strauss's
was prepared is not encouraging, to
say the least of it. :.

GROWTH OF THE MILL INDUSTRY
In THE SoUTH.-The New York Jour
nal of Commerce finds that in August
of last year the south had 3,670,O0C
cotton spindles, against 1,725,O0O in
August, 1890, gain of 1,945, 900 spin
dies in eight years, or over 100 pei
cent. Fresh facts gathered by The
Journal: Fifty new mills are now un'
der construction or in preparation, in.
volving an outlay of $11 100000, and
an addition of 100000 new spindles
Besides these, 80 concerns are en-
larging their present facilities so as to
add 100000 new spindles. Thus in
five months S17, 100000 of capital and
l, 100000 new spipdles are to be add
ed to the productive capacity of the
south. South Carolina leads in this
expansion with $4,000 new spindles
and North Carolina comes next with
236, 1000. The mills mentioned pro-
duce cotton piece goods or yarns
But hosiery and knitting mills also are
being started, and a silk mill is report,
ed. The development of manufac'
turing interest in the south may not
conduce to clear our unselfish tariff
ideas; but it tends doubtless toward q
diversi6cation of the agricultural idea
of money and finance. Baltimore

- Unable to answer the facts present
ed in THE ENQUIRER of last Wednes-
day on the subject of "Town Killers, "
etc., the Columbia State contents itself
with assigning as motive the we'll
known antagonism existing between
local contemporaries. The fact of such
antagonism is not to be denied; but
that has nothing whatever to do with
the soundness of the argument that
The State used as text on which to
lecture its own people. We are free to
confess that had not The State repro.
duced this misrepresentation, putting
Yorkville in a wrong position before
its readers, we would have never paid
the slightest attention to it. Local
people of affairs knew how much i'm
portance to attach to such statements,
but when such statements 60 out to
strangers as having been made by a
local newspaper, the natural inference
on the part of such strangers would
be not only that the local newspaper
was stating the facts correctly, but
that it knew what it was talking
about. In the meantime Yorkville
real estate holders have pretty good
idea of the value of their property,
and the facts show that they have
plenty of faith in that value.

vince, published statement showing
that from January to May, inclusive,
the receipts were S763, 1874 and the ex-
penses S17S,22S, the balance being
cash on hand. This causes general as
tonishment among the Cubans and is
unprecedented in the history of Ha-
vana. Never before have the figures
been published openly. The officials
formerly merely made semiofficial
statements which were not itemized.
No two years of the Spanish regime
have yielded as much as the past FIVE
months. The English La Lucha in an
editorial based on this fact, says the
Cubans and Americans are watching
the results Of military rule, recogniz-
ing the immense influence which will
be exerted in the future political strug-
gle by the present campaign, and adds
"The greatest praise is due to the
Americans here at this evidence of
their intent to maintain methods of
the strictest honesty"

In the above is included all property
except railroad, telegraph, telephone,

be added later, the figures coming
through the Office of the comptroller

The bank returns in the county are
as follows: Catawba, $S9,295; Fort

$131,411.
The total value of moneys, includ-

The total number Of mules and
horses returned for taxation seems to
be surprisingly small. There are only
1899, valued at s7s,516. The number
by townships is as follows: Bethel,

RASERAIL AT THE PARK.

The Yorkville and Kings Mountain
base ball teams crossed bats at the bi
cycle park, last Wednesday afternoon
The latter team came with a good
reputation which was slightly tarnish'
ed before the game was over. 1t is
said that it was a mixture of Gastonia
Gaffney, Spartanburg and Kings
Mountain. Up to the end Of the sixth
inning the Yorkville boys gave beau
full exhibition, playing lively and ac'
curate ball, but afterwards they got
into a rub and slumped badly. The
Kings Mountain team, while doing
nothing very brilliant, played consis'
tent ball throughout, and this consis-
tency coupled with the weakening OF
the home pitcher ultimately secured
for them a hard earned victory. The
character of the ball playing on the
part of the home team can be seen
from the score, for up to the end Of the

Suspicious Monkey Business.

Gaffney correspondence Columbia
State: The balance of the term excit-
ed little interest until Wednesday
morning, when the case of DR.. Mason
w. Smith FOR manslaughter was called
it was found that the indictment in the
case was lost and could not be found,
which necessitated the continuance OF
the case to the next term. DR.. Smith
was very anxious to have the case
tried, and the state was ready and will
ing. An hour or two after court had
adjourned for the term the indictment
was found on the desk of the business
manager of The Ledger. 1t had evil
IDENTIFY been surreptitiously taken from
the clerks or solicitors desk in the
courthouse by some unknown person
and in the same manner placed on The
Ledger desk. whereit was discovered
too late for use at this term of the
court.

sixth inning they were leading by
safe margin, and hopes of winning
looked like materializing. The dealer
in benders and curves and twists from
Spartanburg or Gastonia was having
hard time of it and eventually had to
give up before the onslaught of the
Yorkvile batters. With the advent
of their opponents "south paw" or
left handler, a different aspect was given
the game. His drops and shots were
too much for the home team but JUS
tice demands the statement that the
"going to pieces" of the Yorkvillians at
a critical point materially assisted the
other side. If Danny Woods had
"frozen to his flies" a different tale
might be chronicled; but it is the
uncertainties of baseball that make
it 80 fascinating. The home out6eld
played good ball internationally. Tom
Bludworth made circus catch and
deserved the great applause he got.
The team, however, has had very little
practice. With this useful commodity
and by playing ball son their toes" all
the time they will improve wonder
fully and be a credit to old Yorkville.
They need hard coaching and plenty
of it. The game ended in favor Of
Kings Mountain-1S to 10, score
which is not true reflector of the
game or the merits of the two teams as
they played last Wednesday. DR..
Mcdowell captained the home team
very acceptably.

THE SUMMER SCHOOL.

The York county normal school fol
teachers winds up its first weeks
work today, with results that are
generally satisfactory.
Prof. Colcock has not yet arrived
although he has all along been expect
ed to come in at any time. Just why
he is tardy, the reporter has not learn
ed but it is a fact that one of bis
children, a little girl, was severely
burned a few days ago by an accident
al explosion of gunpowder. This cir
cumstance may have been keeping
him at home.
In the absence of Mr.. Colcock, how.
ever, Mr.. Hand has been getting along
very nicely. He commenced last
Tuesday the development of line oi
instruction that had evidently been
carefully mapped out beforehand, and
the teachers have been becoming more
interested every day.
The institute is conducted after the
general plan of regular school, with
daily recitations, varied BY interesting
features that are being introduced from
time to time by Prof. Hand, and there
is every reason to believe that after a
month of such work the practical ben
eft derived will be considerable.

WITHIN THE TOWN.

II scream |" is the way the vendors
pronounce it. There is no doubt about
it either.
Wednesday was the longest day of
the year, not only in Yorkville, but in
several other localities.
Mr.. T. C. Dunlap harvested 70 BUSH
els of oats off II acres of land and
Mr.. J. B. Pegram 60 bushels off of 2
acres.
The gentleman who was interested
in that real estate transaction referred
to in The ENQUIRER of Wednesday,
says that he sold the property for
81 900 and bought it back for 81 ,O5O
instead of about 81, 200. He was very
much amused too at the idea that spec.
ulating would-be purchasers, should be
accorded the privilege of fixing the
price on real estate they want to buy.
Shortly after arriving in town last
Tuesday one of the young lady teach
ers lost pocket book containing SIG in
cash. Fortunately, however, the pock-
etbook was picked up by another
young lady shortly afterward and re-
stored to the rightful owner.
Agent S. L. Hobbs, of the South

cons that had been sent down from
New Egypt, New Jersey. The pigeons
were released just few minutes be-
fore sunrise. They circled around the
depot few times and then all but one
struck for the northeast. The one re-
mained about the depot until about II
o'clock and then followed in the gen.
eral direction of the others.

A Washington dispatch says that
board of army surgeons, appointed
by the surgeon general to investigate
the spread of typhoid fever in the
military camps, will report that the
disease was transmitted through the
atmosphere by the wind, carrying
about dust containing the dried germs
of typhoid, and by the agency of flies.
This is contrary to all previous medi-
cal theory on the subject, the prevail
ing notion being that bad drinking
water is principally responsible for the
propagation of the disease.

anything else, and commissary men
had a way of finding what they
wanted by smashing cars open with
axes. Sometimes it was necessary to
move a number of cars in order to get
at some particular one, and the most
convenient way to do this was to roll
all the intervening cars into the sea.
This was done in number Of instances,
and it is possible that here is the secret
of the disappearance of those am
balances.

AGAINST The TRUSTS.

There is a great deal of talk about
making an aggressive campaign against
the trusts of the country a leading
feature of the Democratic campaign
next year, and the probability is that
such a fight will be made.
Almost every commercial commodi-
ty of every day use is now under the
control of one or the other of the great
trusts and the strangling of competi-
tion has not only ruined prices and re-
duces wages; but it has thrown out of
employment thousands of mechanics,
laborers, commercial travellers and
others, who were previously able to
make themselves useful, self-sustaining
members of the body polite.
The soul of the trust, of course, is
business, cold blooded business, that
seeks only dividends on the dollars in
vested, regardless of how the desires,
rights and interests of outsiders may
be affected. The foundation of the
trust is the almighty dollar, and, for
years past, it cannot be denied that
this has been one Of the greatest pow
ers in the civilization of America, if
not of the world.
That "down with the trusts" will
be a popular battle cry, there is no
doubt. Neither is there any doubt as
to the righteousness of such a battle
cry; but we confess that to US it looks
like vain one. During the last cam
paign the fight was the same, against
the selfish, grasping, unjust rapacity of
the great money power. Right was on
the side of the Democracy and so was
a majority of the American people !;
but all the same the dollar won, and

- Some of the newspapers persist in
urging German as a substitute foi
Bryan as the Democratic candidate fol
the presidency. That is all the veries'
rot. German is not going to be nomi'
mated, and he would not stand
shadow of chance of election even il
he were nominated. 1t is true that
German did not 60 back on the Dem
ocratic platform last time or sulk in
his tent like Hill. He acted the part
of a good Democrat but then the
country is very doubtful as to whether
he has ever been really converted to
the free coinage doctrine.

- General NJ. G. Butler belongs to
the crowd that does not want to con.
tinue the 16 to question as tbe CHIEF
issue in the Democratic platform. He
said so few days ago in an interview
with the New York World, which is
doing all it can to accomplish that
end. We think that General Butler
has rather gotten out of touch with bis
people. Within the last half a dozen
or so years the people down this way
have about come to the conclusion that
if the free coinage question were elm
mated, it would make but little diff
ference to them whether the control OF
national affairs is in the hands of the
Democrats or Republicans.
