Riot at Eastoyer Caused by Bad Negroes.

COLUMBIA, S. c., September 24.-At
Eastovcr, twenty miles below this oity,
negroes working on the cotton plantation
of w. S. Hodge struck for advance of 10
cents hundred for picking cotton. The
demand was refused by Hodge and neigh
boring farmers. A band of negroes
gathered about Hodges house, cursing
and threatening. He reported the names
of a number to the nearest magistrate.
They were fined $5 each. Negroes fol.
lowed Hodge from tho magistratc's 8
Office, gathering numbers as they wont,
until 400 arrived at his house. They
surrounded his dwelling in which Hodge,
his wife and two children, harricadcd
themselves.
When the crowd advanced to the door
Hodge shot down tho loadcr and they
fell back. Mrs. Hodge, with revolver,
stood by her husbands side during four
hours of suspense.
Finally three ncighboring planters
camo to thoir rescue on horseback and
scattered most of tho negroes, who arc,
however, still making threats. A supply
of arms was obtained from this city this
afternoon.

Reform The Primary.

The State: "Tho expenditure of money
is growing with each campaign. Bri-
berry is on the increase and it takes many
forms. Tho use of liquor both before
and on tho day Of election has grown to
scandalous proportions. There is much
loosencss in the management of tho vot-
ing, in some places the party rules being
grossly disrcgarded. These arc not noe
essary features Of tho primary system
they arc cxcrcsencos on it and can be cut
OIL. We present to-day very thought
ful letter from Mr.. Hunter A. Gibbcs, Of
the Columbia bar, suggesting remedial
measures. In general wo approve them.
The primary election has supplantod tho
general election in both interest and i'm
portancc. Every safeguard which can
be devised for tho general elections of
other States ought to DO applied to our
primaries we arc entitled to tho bcst
and purcst Of elections.
"Wo would go farther than Mr.. Gbbcs
suggests and require a biennial rcgstra.
tion for the primaries. Registration is
necessary to secure full honesty in taking
the sense of the party. At ono precinct
in this city over n hundred Democrats
were donicd tho right to vote because
the club officers had failed to put thor
names on the poll list when thcy were
handed in while at n precinct in another
county the election was conducted with
out tho voters being sworn. Jus.icc do

Floods at Waco, Toxas.

WACO, TEXAS, September 23.-IIcavy
rains on the upper Brazos brought down
a lifteen-foot rise in tho river to-day.
This evening tho river showed signs of
the flood, but was rising slowly, and
lacked six or eight feet Of leaving it's
banks. Residents of tho flats in East
Waco are moving out to night, fearing
that later rains reported to-day may
cause an overflow. Cisco and tho adja-
cent county were visited by heavy rain
and tho Texas Central lost it's bridge
across Deep Creek, north Of Cisco. A
water spout was prccipitatcd on Brown
wood and it's vicinity to-day, and tho
rise in Pecan Bayou swept crops, fcnccs
and farm houses away. Tho water got
up three feet in tho city Of Brownwood
and much damage was done. The rain
was accompanied by high wind, which
wrought much destruction to crops and
improvements.

News Ia and Around Return.

RETURN, S. c., September 25.-As we
have heard nothing from our prosperous
little place for some time, we will cndca-
vor to give you n few dots.
The farmers seem to be in good spirits,
notwithstanding our crops are only
averaging about half a crop. Cotton is
bringing fair price, but we arc looking
for better prices. Some of the cotton
mills have formed combination and are
running on half time, and say they will
have to stop the mills altogether on ac-
count of ten cent cotton. This blum
game will not fool the farmers. Cotton
at Liverpool is selling at II cents per
pound. The reports on the 2lst day of
September show a decrease in that mar
kct alone of 100000 bales
Let those mills that can't handle 10 or
II cent cotton do like some Of our little
ginncrics that can't compete with the
improved ginncrics, let them como down
and out.
AS / have remarked before | believe
the world is now ready for higher prices
on everything, though am sorry to say
there are some Of us who seem to be Il
little selfish in regard to higher prices.
While we are expecting and wanting
more for our cotton than we are getting
at present, we are still holding the poor
laboror at 30 cents per hundred for pick
ing, the same price that was paid when
cotton was 5 and 6 cents.
