Presentment was made, and they tell

ful to examine the petitions presented
your Body before you should censure q
public officer for misconduct. 1t Is a
very easy matter to get up petitions
for men are prone to find fault il they
cannot lead others to do their bidding
Now let us examine that wonderful
petition. 1t starts out with saying:
We the undersigned tax payers OF Lau-
rens County. Now twelve names ap-
pear signed to it. Eight of the twelve
are not on the tax books of Laurens
county, But one of the twelve live
In our county, the other eleven live in
Newberry county, and this one works
in Newberry.
This wonderful array of citizenship
from Newberry pays taxes to the
amount of $41. .69 In Iaurens county,
We have in Laurens county a popu
latlon OF 1856, as per census 1901, and
S5,O96 ,6SS of assessed property, and no
complaint from these to censure the
Supervisor. But this petition from
Newberry, headed by the "Grand Mo-
gull" OF Kinards is used TO injure an
officer who has tried to do his duty.
Now gentlemen cannot see your de-
sign. But | expect to do my duty as
see 1t in the interest of every citizen of
Laurens county, and will not be driven
81 any one.
La conclusion l will say to the honor
able gentlemen from Newberry, as they
seem to be so much interested in the
roads of Laureps county, and have not
contributed one cent for these better
ments, If each OF you will send me one
dollar | will take great pleasure in
making your paths smooth and straight
that a way-faring man may not err
therein.

supplement the corn deficiency. There
is abundance of hay to subsist the

barley, rye and clover another crop can
be made. These are the natural feed

Pittsburg, Pa, July 1S.-Ths most
important OF all news regarding the steel
workers strike that reached Pittsburg
| today was the action of the men en-
ployed in he Duncansville plant Of the
American Steel Co. A telegram was re-
ceived by President Shatfer asking il they
should strike The message was a sur
prise for the AmalRamated people, they
were not looking for this news so soon.
President ShaffeI answered, telling the
men not to come out unless they were
organized II organized, they should
strike, for they are needed.
In the afternoon telegram from Dun
csnsville asked that an organizer be sent
them at once.
In compliance with this request Vice
President John Pierce started for Dun
cansville this evening t, complete or
ganization. The Duncansville plant is
the last Of the hoop plants to remain at
work, and the Amalgaa ated association
officials say il they are successful in
closing this plant they will be masters of
the situation as far as the steel hoop
company is concerned at least.

tration in bringing about An attempt Of

OF the most exciting experiences OF bis

In talking over his trip in his office

"While on the road down to Delta the

Pile informed me that had better be on
my guard. They advised me to keep
away from the Mesa country and to stay
on the train until after | had passed
Delta.
II could not understand 1t all. for
had done nothing and had said nothing
that was afraid Of. My idea in going
down there was simply to investigate
the trouble and see what was the row.
when l reached Delta the district at
torney approached me and said that it
would be dans erous for mo to 10 over to
the lakes; that mob was out there and
no telling what they woul 4 do to me.

II replied that did not see how
could be held responsible.
"'Well, then, what right had you to

III denied that had made any such
statement. Some OF the younger menu

to have .ocler Leads. lexplained to
them that McRaney was appointed a
