The car was then riddled with rifle bull

who kept up a continuous fire from the

charge of dynamite was then thrown
into the car with & burning fuse, but
Charles grabbed it and threw it outside,

the express treasure and went for the
mail. They secured the registered mall
then cut the engine out of the rest of
the train, and ordered Engineer Nichols
to pull ahead. They ran to Juggins
Point, in the outskirts of Eugene, where
they disembarked and ordered the engi-
neer to return and get his train. The
train arrived here at 7:S0, about four
hours late. The news was wired from
Saginaw, and officers were out in search
of the robbers early this morning, but as
yet have secured no trace of them. They
are handicapped by having no description
of the men. Posses from both Lane and
Douglass counties are out in search of
the bandits.

he said and argued that it was the pub

that the strike affected the master
plumbers more than it did the Journey

reached the limit of human endurance,
and they could not raise the ptice any

He contended that the jury should

FREAK OF THE CORNFIELD.

There Is a remarkable field Of corn
near Kings Mountain chapel, four
miles north Of Yorkville, that Is be-
having itself in way that Is incom-
prehensible to the farmers who have
seen it. Instead Of bringing forth its
fruit in regulation ears as ordinary
everyday corn should do, it is crowding
all of its energies into the tassels.
Messrs. ]. w. Smith and J. D. Clark
first called the attention of THE EN-
oUIRER to the phenomenon. While
passing the field last Saturday on their
way to Yorkville, they were struck
with certain unusual peculiarities that
induced them to bring specimens on
to town and to this office for exami-
nation.
"They always told me-" remarked
Mr.. Smith, that an extra corn crop
included two ears to the stalk and a
peck of loose grains in the tassel. So
far as 1 have been able to see, the
two ears to the stalk were missing In

Our Merchant Marine.

The ship subsidy question has never
been discussed on its merits In South
Carolina, and the reason Of it is that
the newspapers which are opposed dare
not ventilate the subject. So long as
they are permitted to refer to the prop
osition as a Republican steal to refund
campaign contributions to a few rich
men. they feel safe enough; but when
they reflect upon the probable extent
of the spirit of broad Americanism
now prevalent among the people, they
seem to consider it best not to devel-
op too much information.
Unfortunately the information of the
masses of the people, not only of this
immediate section, but of the whole
United States. is very limited on the
subject of the ocean carrying trade.
All are concerned, of course; but their
interest is too indirect to compel their
close investigation. They pay ocean
freights just as they pay their heavy
indirect taxes that are necessary for
the support of the general government,
and just as there are thousands of
people who have no idea of the amount
of taxes they pay to the support Of the
general government, there are other
tens of thousands who are not aware
that ocean freights, directly or indi-
rectly. affect the value of almost every
dollar they receive or spend.
The ocean freight traffic, it is i'm
portant to remember must be cOnsid-
cred in two divisions, which, so far as
the present discussion is concerned, are
entirely separate and distinct. One Of
these divisions includes the coasting
trade, and the other the foreign trade.
The coasting trade refers to commerce
between United States ports exclusive
ly, and the foreign trade as conducted
between the ports of this country and
those of foreign countries.
The coasting trade is not now under
consideration. The reader will be in
terested to know, however. that this

IN CONTEMPT OF CoURT.-One of the
most amusing things that has appear
ed on the surface of South Carolina
politics in quite awhile is the unmer-
ciful fiogging which the Columbia state
(newspaper) Is just now administering
to Senator McLaurin.
Our Columbia contemporary has seiz-
ed the Pee Dee statesman by the nape
Of the neck. and holding him suspend
ed in midair. proceeds to lambast and
after each stroke of its at-o'-ninetails.
asks in stentorian voice: Nov will
you be good?"
1t is funny, very funny. The State
showers questions at Senator McLau-
rim, guesses at his answers. abuses him
for not answering and asks more ques-
tions. 1t tells the Senator he has ears,
a tongue. a pen and so forth, and 1t
utterly fails to comprehend why
public man should not speak when
spoken to by The State.
Senator McLaurin is now trying to
keep cool on the banks Of the Greater
or the Little Pee Dee. He Is possibly
recuperating for the campaign, ever
and anon brushing aside the festive
mosquito. 1t may be that in his Sc
questered nook he mistakes the pestif-
erous State for a sandfly and brushes
it aside also.-Spartanburg Herald.
