Asheville, N. c.. Jan. 90, 1904-Conduc-
tor Fisher of the Ashevile Street Rail-
road Company received letter from his
father, who lives at Brindletown Burke
county last evening, In which the writer
confirmed the news of the killings in
that county Tuesday evening The letter
stated that Bill Deal, whom it was
thought Ed Hunt had killed was not
dead but that he was terribly beaten
and the chances were that he would die
as the result of his injuries. Hunt used
a pair of kuncks, and it is said that his
victims skull was fractured. The other
two men Joe Lowery and Marion Fisher
are dead the two Fishers. Julius and
York after killing their men escaped but
Ed Hunt was captured and is now In the
hands of the Burke county authorities.

in the gold mines of that region and were
all good friends. Marion Fisher, an uncle
Of the man who killed him, formerly lived
in Burke but several years ago moved to
Spartanburg, S. C.. where he has since
resided; several days ago he went back
to his old home in Burke county, expecting
to return there to live in a short time.
He was highly respected man, more
than so years of age. and leaves a wife
and several children julius Fisher the
murderer was a young man and had pre-
viously been in considerable trouble he is
declared to be an absolutely fearless man,
a desperate character. York Fisher, who
used the kuncks on Bill Deal is a near re-
lative of Marion and julius Fisher and a
young man not over 20 years of age.
Nothing is known of the other two men,
Lowery and Hunt, further than that they
were miners and had resided in Burke

COTTON AND TOBACCO.

THE farmer who has tobacco would
rather see the higher prices than to hear
the promise of advance" says the Green.
vile Reflector. The high price of cotton
this year all the more emphasizes the
crime of the tobacco trust in taking the
tobacco crop at song. If the cotton
crop could be controlled by a trust, as
the tobacco crop is. the cotton farmers
would be as much in the low-grounds as
the tobacco farmers are.
The tendency, since the inflow o. gold
from Alaska, has been for everything to
go up in price. Cotton had hardly felt
that upward tendency until this year. a
small portion of the increase may be at
tributed to the general upward tendency
in prices, but it is chiefly due
to the increased demand and the smaller
supply. i
The tobacco crop this year is short
probably proportionately shorter than the
cotton crop. The law of supr.y and de-
mand, if it work with tobacco as with
cotton, would give tobacco farmers a high
er price. What prevents higher tobacco
The greed of the trust, which controls
the tobacco crop, is alone responsiule for
the starvation prices being paid for TO-
bacco Simply that and nothing else.
