BROKERS
AND
COMMISSION MERCHANTS,

We desire to say to our friends
and patrons that we are still carry
ing on business at the old stand,
where we are better than ever before
prepared to serve them.
This will be perhaps the hardest
year that our farmers have had to
contend with since the war, anu feel
ing this ourselves we are going to
make it study to try to place pro-
visions of all kinds in Kingstree for
as little money as they possibly can
be laid down here for and sold Oh
strictly cash basis. Any business
man knows that Corn, Grts. Bacon,
Molasses, Flour and such like goods
are the same as money. And what
our people need in Kingstree is a
man who is able to cope with the
outside business world and bring
them to their doors as cheap as they
can get them in any market. This,
can only be- done with tie money,
and at the outsetwe, waut to,tell. euss
customers that it takes moreya:e gar.
this kind of business, It never hes.
been attempted here before. 1t is.
purely experimental, and whether IL.
shall succeed or fail depends upon,
the support the people shall give it. i.
In this day and age in order to keep
up with the markets of tie world.
a man has to study themand make itn.
business and get prices way down in
order 70 know when and where to
buy. With these introductory
remarks we want now briefly to tell
you some of the goods we handle, viz:
CORN, SUGAR,
OATS, COFFEE,

NICHOLS is "BUSY. 4"
Attorney Generals Office Therefore
Fights Poole Case.

The appeal of A. F. Poole. the chick
en- thief who was sentenced to the penl-
Tertiary by Judge Hazen. will come up
in the supreme court next month";
County Attorney Galen Nichols seems
to be too busy with other matters Just
at present to attend to such small mat
ters as pushing the countys cases IN
the supreme court. and he has turned
the duty of preparing the briefs in the
Poole case over to the attorney gen
erals force The brief has been pre-
pared by Assistant Attorney General
West, and in his statement of the case
Judge West says:
Appellant was convicted of burglar
izing a hen house in the night time and
stealing chickens therefrom. He relies
in his brief on the assignments OF error
concerning the failure of the trial court
to sustain the plea in abatement to dis
charge him.. or to instruct the jury to-.
on the ground of fatal variance, and in
giving and refusing certain other in
structions.
Counsel have shown zeal, industry
and ingenuity in collecting authorities
and building up an argument to show
why the poultry of Shawnee county
should still be subject to the taking
qualities of their client. but we think.
nevertheless, the trial court r1ghttuliy
upheld the verdict.
| Poole's attorneys appealed to what is
known as the rule of sejusdem generis,
and alleged that Poole was wrongfuliy
convicted of burglary because he only
broke into a hen house and stole only
chickens which are not valuable pro-
perty'' within the meaning of the burg
I larry statute On this latter point Judge
West saws:
Counsel take a fresh tack on the
/ 'ejusdem generis' voyage at page "a OF
| their brief, and assert that chickens are
not sother valuable things This is al
most treason, in view of the famous es-
says sent abroad regarding the Kansas
i hen. BY the work of Secretary Coburn
and the newspapers of the state. the
people of civilization have been led to
/ look on the hen as chief source OF
profit and inducement to immigration
1t would be a shock to the state TO hold
/ that chickens are not valuable things
