the Negro population does not take a
wholesome view of such matters. In
fact it is charged that the general dis
position among the Negroes is to shield
rather than assist in the arrest of fugi-
tives. As to whether this is actually
true we are not prepared to say; but
if it is true, such policy is necessarily
prejudicial to the best interests of the
colored population. They should, by
all means, lend helping hand to bring
criminals among them to justice.

The Summer School.
The York county summer school will

cordance with previous announce
ments, with Prof. J. w. Thomson as
principal, and Misses Dunbar and
Sanders as assistants. Superindent
of Education Carroll reports that
quite number of teachers have indi-
Gated it as their intention to attend,
and the outlook now is for much
more satisfactory session even than
that of last year.
Did Not Mean 1t That Way.
Chairman Brice, of the County Dem
ocratic Executive committee, has re-
ceived letter from Chairman Jones of
the state committee with reference to
the assessment of candidates for the
house and senate by that committee.
Chairman Jones explained that the
newspaper reports were based upon
misapprehension; that it is the pur
pose of the state committee to assess
counties on the basis of their repre-
sentation in the house and senate, and
not so much for each candidate. The
county candidates are not to be assess
ed by the state committee.
Something Wrong About It.
The ease with which one Negro can
shoot down another and make his es-
cape from this community has become
a subject of remark. About three
years ago a Negro named Fry, shot
and killed another Negro, and got out
of the community and away. He is
still at large. A few months ago a
Negro named Stewart shot his wife
and quietly got out of the community.
He is still at large. After shooting
Giles Darwin, the other night, Arthur
Simril went about his business, and is
still at large. A large portion of the
general public has an idea that when
thing of this kind occurs, there is
nothing for the arresting officers to do
but hunt down the guilty party and
put him in Jail. This is mistake. The
arresting officers have no more re-
sponsibility in the matter than other
citizens until warrants have been
issued in the regular manner and
placed in their hands. AS a matter of
fact, however, in each of the cases
mentioned, the sheriff promptly took
up the pursuit and did what he could
to arrest the murders. Deputy Har-
shaw went otter Simril and made an
arrest; but owing to misapprehension,
picked up the wrong man. The con-
dition of affairs indicated has an ele-
ment of danger to the community and
especially to the colored population.
A white murderer would not be allow
ed to escape. Every white man in
the whole county would feel interested
and lend a hand for capture. 1t has
been intimated, more than once, that

DISK DRILL.

WE have recently received few Hoo
w sier Grain Drills. Out object in
getting them at this time was to place
ourselves in position to help any farmer
who expects to SOW his wheat and oat
fields In pease, to save one bushel Of seed
pease on every acre sowed. It Is custo-
mary in this section to sow two bushels Of
pease on each acre broadcast. Weare here
to say that better results can be obtained
from one bushel, If put in with drill,
and also that the HOOSIER is the BEST
DRILL ON THIS OR ANY OTHER
MARKET. The Drill will pay as well in
sowing pease as wheat or oats.
