Figures do not lie. but they cut some
funny capers occasionally. The other

FIVE men were voted for at once for
county commissioner the result came
near nominating six men when only FIVE
men were 10 be chosen. AS a matter of
fact when two men are voted for at

only one man is voted for. To illustrate
IL, a a piece of paper. and six voters
and vote for o u different men, two al
q time. Each voter votes for two men
at once. instead OF the total vote beins
six it is clear hat ii is twelve. BY di-
viding these votes up among the four
candidates you can dominate three OF
them easily and fairly unless the ag-
gregate vote is counted as twelve, a ma
jority Of which would be six and a frac-
ton. AS a matter OF fact not a single
man was for the house on
the first ballot. when Mr.. Robertson vas
declared the nominee and for this rea-
son. the total voting strength was 161;
when each voter voted for two men at
once. then the total became double: in
other words 1t required 161 and a frac-
ton TO nominate. OF course no question
was raised over the matter and it
an ooI " iOW NOW II Is DOSSlOEC
to nominate three men when only two
are required by voting for two at a
time, let's illustrate it. Well say Rob-
erson, Gordon and Fox are the candi-
dates and We have six votes in the
convention; three and a fraction would
nominate IL voted for one at a time,
but we are now voting for two at a
time. The names OF the voters we will
call A. d, c, ID, E and F. The roll is
called with this result: A votes for
Robson and Gordon; B votes for
Fox and Gordon; c. votes for Roo
eson and Gordon; d votes for Fox and
Gordon; E votes for Robertson and Fox;
and F votes for Fox and Robertson.
Here We have three men with four votes
each, all being nominated. This does
not often occur, but it is seen tina 1t
can occur, that it is not impossible I'M
less ne aggregate vote is counted as
twelve, which is the only correct way.

THE SOUTH'S COTTON CROP.

a correspondent in The Manufacture
ers' Record takes the position hat the
present cotton crop Will not exceed
eleven and a quarter million bales,
Not only this, but he says this will be
the maximum limit of the crop for the
next three years and he says that on
count of existing conditions it will
take every one of those eleven and a
half million bales each year for the
next three to restore the equanini-
ty between the supply and the demand
the world over. He calls attention to
the fact that there has never yet been
found a substitute for cotton or 3
country which completes with the
south in Producing this necessary
worlds staple.
What then is the south to do? II
has, you may say, the monopoly in The
production OF this one absolutely nee
essary article of commerce and of do
nestle use of the world. Shall the

producers Of this necessity regulate
the price Of the article 1t Produces Or
will they allow the spectators in New
York and Liverpool to do SO for them
That is the all important question
which c%onfronts the cotton planter of
the south Heretofore the price Of the
spot cotton as it came from the hands
OF the men who raised and harvested
the crop has been regulated for them

lionaire Spectator in his office in New
York or in Liverpool. without any re-
gard 70 the law Of supply and demand.
This has arisen from the fact that the
cotton crop al the south was planted.
cultivated, gathered and marketed on
credit. The planter went into debt for
his crop before he turned a furrow in
his cotton field in the spring. Not
only this, but generally everything he
had in the way Of household furnish
ings, farming implements and sarm
stock was mortgaged to make add
tionally secure the merchant who vas
to supply him with fertilizer for his
crop and supplies for his family dur
ing the time OF c~ultivating and gather
ing Of the crop. The small cropper un-
der these conditions was more OF a
slave than any negro in the south be-
fore Lincoln's emancipation proclama-
ton. He was at the mercy of his
creditor. His crop was never his own
from the day he put the seed in the
ground.
Thanks be to good crops and sue
cessful farming, the southern planter
has emancipated himself from this
thraldom. He now is in position to say
to the cotton buyer that he can have
the product Of his farm at such a price
or he can let it alone.
In this respect the cotton grower Is
growing more independent every year,
n if the forecast Of cotton produc-
ton by this correspondent of The
Manufacturers Record be any where
near correct the southern planter will
be all the more INDEPENDENT. Again
will cotton be king and the grower of
cotton be the ruler of the markets of
the world. Should it turn out to De
true that the cotton crop of the south
Tor the next three years did not ex-
cede eleven n a quarter million
bales a year the south would at the
n OF that period be the wealthiest
section Of the world. No other country
can compete with her in the produc-
ton Of this staple. She has the world
in a sling and she can accumulate
immense wealth if she will just act
judiciously and the people work in con-
cert.

Correspondence of Charlotte Ooserver.)
Newberry. $. G, August 2--An inn
portant turn was taken in the famous
Aaude Alien murder case this after
noon when Detective Strickland, OF Co
lumbia. accompanied by Bertha Med
lin "a young white woman. and Willie
Wylie. the negro boy who has figured
SO prominently in tie case nus far.
came to Newberry for the purpose of
Identifying the two men, Butler Holt
and Will Martin, now in custody
charged with the crime. These. in COM
pany with Hollis attorneys Messrs.
Fred III. Dominick and Cole L. Blease,
Sheriff Buford and several newspaper
reporters, proceeded to the county Jail

ceedings. The witnesses were first taken
TO Hollis cell. where a close observation
was made. The little negro stated THAI
ne was not the man whom he had seen
leave the house of Maude Allen ON The
afternoon of the murder. Bertha Med
lin, after carefully s~crutinizing the
prisoner. announced that Holt is the
man who brought Maude Alien to Co.

Martins cell was next visited, IN

as the man who was seen on the prem.
ises on Thursday afternoon, August IL.
The police are still working on the
case, and other arrests are expected to
follow.
The story of the. brutal murder of
Maude Allen in Columbia on August IL,
is no doubt still fresh in the minds OF
tha r.hlia Uyh4thn- ~ r4@ +h4 o.
ALLEN who vas married to Holt several
months ago in Newberry, n LETT him
a few days after the marriage is the
Maude Allen who was brutally muir
dered at Columbia ten days ago re-
mains to be seen. BE- that as it may,
it is said that Holt, on several occas>
ions threatened the life of his wife
should he ever meet up with her again.
1t now remains to be proved whether
or not he carried out his threats. The
murder of Maude Allen has been a mys-
terry from the beginning. although two
men. who are thought to be the muir.
derers were seen to leave the house
more than ten minutes before the ar
rival of the police on the case
The body of the woman has lain in
a Columbia morgue since the murder
awaiting Identification, very few people
apparently having yer seen her, all
though she had lived in Columbia for
yer a month. A Newberry man, who
remembers the marriage of Holt and
the Allen woman, stated that the body
of the murdered woman is that OF
Hollis wife. One very disagreeable
feature of the case is he apparent
lack of unanimity between the Colum>
hia and Newberry officers in conjunc-
ton to discover the murderer or muir
derers is hard to understand. Perhaps
the fact that a large reward has been
offered for the arrest and conviction OF
the guilty parties has no little to do
with this state Of affairs. The men now
in custody will remain in the county
Jail until the hearing before Chief JUS
tice Pope, which has been set for Thurs
day afternoon.
