charged with shooting Mr.. William H.

Quoted by States Attorney James w.

T. c. Hopkins. 1t required the summon
ing of number of talesmen before the
panel could be completed.
The evidence showed that on the day
mentioned, the negro Murphy and Mr..
Keen, butcher, drove up to Mr.. Hopkins
house. While making purchase the
question of politics was brought up in
conversation between Mr.. Keen and Mr..
Hopkins. The former asked the latter
what ticket he expected to support at the
election. Mr.. Hopkins replied that he had
voted Independently, but on account Of
the conduct of some of the negroes since
the dinner given by President Roosevelt
to Booker T. " ashington, he had made
up his mind to support the Democratic
ticket. Murphy seemed to be incensed Al
this remark and endeavored to pick {

down the road and Mr.. Hipkins goinl
into the house. When a short distanc

This was brought very forcibly to our

our friends wanted US to get him a few
cars of corn, and when we came to ques-

was to stop the farmers crushing wheat
in his neighborhood. He thought, pos

cheaper than the wheat he could sell the
corn, and get little profit out of it and
have the wheat to shipout. Asitis now
they have steam crushers travelling from
farm to farm, crushing from two to fv
hundred bushels of wheat for feed, ant
the result is he has no wheat toforward
