the ground during the electrical storm
Wednesday afternoon the 18TH. The farm
on which the barn was located was being
worked by Eugene Brogden. son of the
owner. whose children were playing in the
barn with their goat, and narrowly escap-
ed serious injury. The children, after
freeing their goat, gave the alarm. and
only the aid of peighbors saved the adjoin-
ing buildings from destruction -four
horses, harness and farm implements were
lost also IS ton of hay. The barn was
covered by insurance, but the horses and
other property were not. Eugene Brog
den s loss will be between four and FIVE

Legal Fiction,

Whenever q man ia lynched the news,
papers are always full Of rot about the stren-
nous efforts of the officers to protect the
prisoner. That old gag has been used en-
ough. unless there is some proof OF the truth
of the statement.
If the Sheriff, Constable or other officers
should make an honest effort to protect a
prisoner, do you think that he would lock
1im up, hang out big light to show where
ne was aud then wait for the mob, to whom
the keys, upon demand. are turned over?
If the officer really meant to save his
prisoner from the mob would he not take
him off und try 10 hide him, instead of put.
ting him place where he would certainly
be found?
The Governor and county officers have OF
late been making very conspicuous and
ludicrous pictures ofthemselves In reference
10 this lynchirg business.
Down in Kershaw lynchers must be scared
nearly 10 death even as are the Laurens
lynchers since the Sheriff of Greenwood is
looking for them. II either of the afore
mentioned Sheritfs should lay eyes on the
lyncher, the aforesaid lyncher might as
well 20 out Of business at once.

Raised the Price of Cotton.

We believe that some Of the intelligent
suffragists OF Abbevile County thought Mr..
Joe n. Nance had something to do with the
raising of The price OF cotton last year. Being
grateful TO him for his services they honored
him this sum mer with seat In the Legisla-
ture.
Mr.. Nance and all others who bought cotton
at ten cents made stacks OF money by their
faith in the Investment.
Judging from last years experience num-
ber OF our farmers are storing their cotton
and waiting for the rise in price. Since the
editor OF the Press and Banner sold his pr, s.
pectlve crop at nine cents last year, he has
had all the conceit knocked out Of him. For
this reason he is not giving advice, except
when be asked Mr.. Nance to be very careful
lest be lose the nice pile which he made last
year. If we had money we would be AFRAID
10 stake 1t either way.
