Thomas Singleton Stuart.

After an illness of about a month
Mr. Thomas Singleton Stuart died
from the effects of paralysis last
Sunday morning at 8 o'clock q. NJ,
at the home of Mr. j W Kelley, near
Martins X Roads. Mr. Stuart was
"a years old. He was born and
reared in the vicinity of Kingstree
and his death removes from our
community familiar figure. Of a
happy and cheerful nature he had u
large number of friends to whom
his demise is a source of sincere
regret.
MIR Stuart gave four years of
faithful service as soldier in the
Confederate army. He held the
rank Of sergeant in Maj G S Lands
cammand, part of the 26th S c ",
and his old comrades speak highly
of his soldierly qualities.
He was member of the Presby-
terrain church and also belonged to
Kiugstree Lodge A F NJ. The re-
mains were inferred in the Williams
burg cemetery at 10 o'clock Monday
with Masonic honors.
Mr. Stuart is survived by six
children, four daughters and two

down WITH THE TRUST.
A VOICE RAISED AGAINST A
GIGANTIC MONOPOLY.
Farmers Urged to Organize against
that lniquitous Monster, the
American Tobacco Co.

Editor County Record
We are glad to see in the last is,
sue of TIE RECORD the stand taken
by the Florence county farmers in
regard to the tobacco trust. We also
note with pleasure your endorse
ment of the same. 1t is high time,
Mr. Editor, for the farmers to assert
their rights-to arise in their
strength and put down this gigantic
monster that threatens to sap their
life's blood. 1t is the farmer who
supports every institution in the
world. Yet every other producer
puts the price upon his products ex-
cept the farmer, who has the alter
native of taking what is offered him
or keeping his produce. Shall we
longer sit quiet and tamely allow
this insatiate monster (the trust) to
throttle us in its death grip and
grow fat at our expense by taking
from us the fruit of our toll for the
beggarly price offered in exchange!
/ say no; and Mr. Editor, if every
farmer in South Carolina were of
my opinion the trusts would handle
no more of our tobacco or cotton,
and We would handle no more of
their goods until thev paid us "a liv-
ing price for our products. 1t is
simple robbery to take a farmers
produce at "a price below the cost of
production and then sell it back
t. him at extortionate prices.
Brother farmers, let us arise in
our might and let our strength be
felt. We have it in our power, if
we will only stand together and as.
sert our rights.
The writer hereof told a tobacco
warehouseman recently that before
he would haul his tobacco to market
and give it to the trust he would
throw it in his lot for manure. Mr.
Editor, if we would all say this and
stick to it these trusts would soon
be sending men to our homes to buy
our tobacco and pay us a living
price for it.
Speak out, brother farmers. and
let rs act in this matter. Give us
your opinions and hearty co-opera-
ton and we will soon see the silver
lining to this dark cloud of gloom
that hangs over our fair land.
hope, Mr. Editor, that you will
continue to press this point upon
our farmers and that every other
newspaper in the State will do the
sanlt.
Come one! Come all! Let us march
forward to victory under the
antitrust colors and place our
banners over the ruins Of the trusts
kingdom. A FARMER.

NEGRO SERIOUSLY HURT.
Found Near Depot with Face
Smashed in and Arm Broken.

Abraham Moore, a negro sup
posed to be stealing ride on the
early morning through train, No 50,
came near being killed here last
Sunday morning. When found he
was lying near the railroad track at
the station in an unconscious state.
He was taken to the waiting room
and DR. w V Brockin ton, the A G L
local surgeon, sent for. Upon ex-
animation DR. Brockinton found the
left arm broken and right jaw fra c.
tured. The negro recovered suffic-
iently to make statement. He
gave his name and stated that he
lived in Charleston. He claimed
that he was not Oh the train but
was walking alongside the track
when the train struck him. The
circumstances Of the accident seem
to warrant the inference that he was
beating a ride and was either
knocked off by colliding with the
depot platform, or that he jumped
off the fast moving train and struck
a cross-tie. DR. Brockinton took the
injured man to Charleston Sunday
morning and placed him in the
city hospital, where with Drs Kirk
and Wilson he dressed his wounds.
DR. Brockinton says when he left
the patient was doing Us we'll as

Platform.
KINGSTREE, S. Co..

Aug. "a, 1903.
We, the Democrats of the town of
Kingstree, S. c., do reaffirm our al
legiance to the essential principles Of
Democracy as defined by Thomas JEFF
ferson, and especially do We stand
for the preservation Of personal
rights, the equality of all citizens BE-
fore the law and the faithful obser-
vance of constitutional limitations.
We believe in levying taxes and
granting licenses for purposes of rev.
enue, such duties to be 80 adjusted
as to apply equally to all citizens,
not discriminating between class or
individuals, and that taxation should
be limited to the needs of the town,
honestly and economically admins
tered.
We are proud of the interest arous-
ed for the cause of education and do
commend the efforts of the board of
trustees of this school district, No.
16, in establishing and maintaining
the excellency of the present graded
school, and we heartily pledge our
selves to stand by and support them
in their further efforts--te, advance
the great cause of education, realiz-
ing that its Importance is paramount
to all other issues.
We believe that the revenue of the
town, handled with good judgment
and economy, is sufficient to erect,
equip and maintain the new school
building as contemplated, without
further increase of taxation, except
as might be necessary to retain the
legal status of the act granting such
levy. In such event We believe
that the levy should be only nominal.
We oppose the policy and the ex-
penditure of moneys towards such
portions of the town that might tend
to arouse public Indignation, believ-
ing that improvements should begin
in places of greatest necessity, with
out regard for individual esteem, but
with an eye single to the public's
good and the upbuilding of Our town.
And now, confding in the princi-
Piles of justice and in the righteous
ness of our cause, we invite all citi-
zens to join us in carrying our .pur-
poses to success.

TAXES ISSUE WITH GRAND JURY.
Mr.. Sng,etary Opposes Erection of
Iron Fence about Court House Square.

Editor County Record
There is no set of men in the
county for whom l entertain greater
respect than those who are serving
as grand Jurors, all of whom l be-
lieve to be dong their duty as they
see it. But | wish to say a few
words as to their recommendation
that the board of county commits
sioners have an iron fence erected
around the court house grounds.
If YOU will allow me space in your
columns / will offer to your many
readers my reasons for opposing the
erection of this fence:
First, there are many pressing
demands for improvements and the
county funds are too limited to
make worthless expenditures.
. Second, the court house belongs
to the people of the county. The
money is theirs also, and many of
the citizens live 25 and 80 miles
from the county seat, to which they
have to travel by private convey
ance. Now these people contribute
as much to the county government
fund as any other citizens. This
being true-and no one will deny
it-should they be restrained from
hitching their stock on the court
house grounds, and if so, where is
the right and justice of it? We all
know that there is a scarcity of
hitching room in Kingstree and |
beg to submit that it would be Il
hardship on many people to have to
pay ten cents for stall in which to
hitch their horses in order that the
court house square may be made
into park and preserved us such.
Fellow citizens, raise your voices
and let us hear from You on this
subject. If any man will show me
why this thingrshould be done, then
/ for one am ready to say BALD the
fence. If, on the other hand, the
people do not approve of it let them
spelk out and let's apply this money
to making the Jail mora secure, bet
tering the condition Of the roads and
bridges and let the people continue
to have a free hitching-place for
their stock when they drive to
Kingstree, or else be contented with
the present condition of things and
have less taxes to pay.
Respectfully,
SAMUEL j. SINGLETARY.
