Weekly Crop Bulletin.

Columbia, S. O., April IS. 1899
The week ending Monday,
April 18th, averaged about two
degrees per day warmer than
usual, although the first two days
were cool, with Ii ght to killing
frosts over the entire State, that
injured young corn and truck.
The latter portion of the week
was very warm.
Bright sunshine was the pre-
vailing condition of the sky, with
increasing cloudiness and very
light rain on Saturday afternoon
and night in portions of the west.
tern and central counties. Other
wise the week was without rain,
and gave uninterrupted oppOr-
tumty for farm work. Clay bot
tom lands, and heavy soils gener-
orally, became somewhat baked
and crusted, making a light rain.
fall very desirable.
Preparation Of lands and plant
ing progressed rapidly, with a re
suit that corn planting was, at the
close of the week, nearing com.
pletion over the eastern portions
of the State, and some has been
planted in all except the extreme
western portions Of the State.
Corn that was up was hurt to
some extent by the frost. Some
complaint of corn rotting in the
ground, and in places replanting
has already been done.
Much land for cotton was pre-
pared, fertilizer listed, and some
upland as well as sea-island cot
ton was planted, and this work
will become general during the

LAKE CITY ARGUMENTS.
Mr.. Bryan Boldly Says Witnesses
Were Perjured.
Greenville Ne VS..

Charleston, S. c., April 10
The argument to the jury for the
government in the case against
the alleged Lake City lynchers
was opened today by j. Z. X.
Bryan. His speech lasted four
hours and was characterized by
bojdness of expression and by the
directness of the charges which it
made against the prisoners and
the witnesses who testified for
them.
Mr.. Bryan declared that not
only had the conspiracy alleged
been brought home to the defend
ants, but in the attempt to escape
from the consequences the pub
lie records had been mutilated in
most barefaced and reckless
manner. Two defendants went
before the jury without the sem
blance of testimony in their favor.
An accomplice swears that he
was with them at the lynching.
Three unimpeached witnesses
swore they saw them there and
yet they did not go on the stand
to explain their whereabouts nor
were witnesses offered to show
where they were when Baker was
killed. For the other six men
alibis of a most flimsy character
were set up-statements in
which the individuals contradicted
each other at every turn, and IN
which the false and the marvel
lous were so blended that they
fade away to nothing in the light
of reason and fact. He declared
that things had come to pass in
South Carolina at which human
life was cheaper than 4 cent cot
ton, and the majesty of the law
could never be re- established un-
less jurors could be found who
would see to it that such diaboli-
cal crimes as the lynching Of
Frazier Baker are punished.
In reply G. S. Legare argued
for the defense. He declared
that the testimony of the govern
