YeaGer, young man living near Fair
field, went 10 see Emma Findley, a
netghbor's daughter last night and
when his father awoke this morning he
found his son dead in his buggy at the
front gate. The young man had been
shot in the side and right temple. His
position in the buggy indicated that he
had been killed while driving along the
highway.

NEED OF WHITE PEOPLE.

The Newberry Observer in a
timely editorial shows that the
great need Of this state at present
is white people, those who will go
.Ato the country and farm Oh an
intelligent basis. 1t is pointed out
that a new era for farmers has
come and thai farming is mG"e
profitable now than ever, when
1t is conducted on business princi-
pies. 1t is fact that in MANY
sections of the state farm work
has been abandoned by white
people because cotton mills offer.
ed them greater Inducements in
The way OF comfort, perhaps, and
educational and other facilities.
In many cases, no doubt, it was
not the fault of the farm but Of
the farmer and his methods that
mill work was more attractive.
We believe this is the true ex-
ptanation OF the abandonment OF
farms, because. taking soil and
climate together, there is no sec.
ilon OF the country superior to
our own. We are practically
IIee from floods, tornadoes. cv-
clones, long continued droughts
and various other evils that in.
ti.ct other sections of this coun-
try. II does seem sometimes that
IN those respects We are especial
ly blessed by Providence. Since
this Is so, it must be the fault Of
the people themselves that TIE,
have not prospered on the farms.
and this state then is Il good field
Tor energetic, progressive white
farmers. If we would but let
the outside world know of these
things there would be little trou-
BILE in securing desirable immi-
grafton from other less favored
states of the country, particularly
OF the west and northwest. Th e
class Of people that we could OBJ
tain from them would be much
more desirable than foreigners,
If we except certain classes of
emigrants from Great Britain and
Northern Europe. Those would
be desirable and we could obtain
portion of them as we'll as
those from other states if the
proper effort was made The
