Use Cotton Bageing.

The recent suggestion Of Kansas
milling company that the troubles O
the Southern planters could be cor.
rected to some extent by the more
general use Of cotton bagging for
Southern products, Is being generally
discussed and many business men en-.
dcrse the idea. 1t depends. of course,
upon the farmers whether they will
use cotton covers Instead OF jute for
their cotton bales and many uses to
which the proposed new Wrapper
could be put. Even wi h the products
which the farmers do not originate,
they oould secure the use of cotton
wrappers by insisting upon receiving
these foreign products only in cotton
covers. In this way they would be
creating a demand for their own
staple and thus help maintain the
price. Many mills stand ready to make
atouter cotton wrapping cloth If the
demand is only created, and the cost
VIII be little, II any, higher to the
farmers. This Is a matter worth con.
sidering, and we suggest that the
Southern Cotton Growers Association
take 1t up and consider it. There is
no good reason why cotton should not
be put up In cotton bagging. II necss
sary 1t could be made fire proof, and
would afford batter protection for
cotton than jute bagging. Let us get
out OF the old ruts.

Killed on a Trestle.

A dispatch from Spartanburg to
The State says Carrie Hammond, a
colored woman, while walking on the
little trestle between the Charleston
and Western Carolina depot and the
Southern station, was struck by the
locomotive Of the Glenn Spring train,
and killed. The body Of the woman
was tossed to the embankment on the
left OF the track. She had almost
walked across the trestle, when the
engine struck her, and 1t Is probable
that she slipped between the crossties.
Engineer Cummings tried his utmost
to stop the train. which was pulling
out s!owly. Her face and breast were
crushed, and death must have been
instantaneous.

Runaway Fron Home.

Two weeks ago q young man named
Dick Davis went to the home of Mr..
4. j. Burckhalter, about ten miles
from Aiken, asking for employment
as a painter. Mr.. BuFckhalter en-
p!oyed him, and while working there
he became intimate with MIR. Burck.

night week ago induced him to leave
his home. Before leaving they took
$40, pistol and a raz r. The boys
left before midnight and have not
been heard from up to this time. AL.

Some Qnrer DONNA.

There are some queer doings In the
called high life OF tho people of the
North. A dispatch from Newport,
r. L., says as sequel to two divorce
cases which two years ago caused sen.
satlons-those OF Mrs. Hollis III. Hun.
newell and Mrs. Mary Isabelle Kemp
1T was learned recently that suit
had been brought, or was about to be
brought against Hollis II. Hunnewell
OF Wellesley, Mass, now the husband
Of Mrs. Kemp, to recover for counsel
fees In connection with securing the
divorce Of Mrs. Kemp. The suit Is
brought by Col. Samuel r. Honey,
ane 1t Is stated on tfus- worthy
authority that the amount claimed is
S25, 900. Mrs. HunneWell Is q dauph.
ter OF Mrs. Frederic N, ilson and
sister Jf Mrs. Reginald @. Vanderbilt.
She brought action for divorce against
Mr.. Kemp In the Rhode Island courts.
and the case was heard and a divorce
granted at Newport on May 20, 1903,
the grounds being neglect and refusal
to provide. Under the laws Of Rhude
Island Mrs. Kemp had to wait six
months before the divorce became
operative, and on November 27, 1908,
an absolute decree was granted by
Judge Dubois at Newport, and an
hour later Mrs. Kemp was married to
Mr.. Hunnowell by Judge Dub Dis
Mr.. Hunnewell was divorced from his
wife about six months prior to this,
she afterward marrying John 8.
Tookel. This Is certainly a mess. A
man being sued for the lawyers fees
securing divorce for his wife from
her for ner husband is something ini
que, al could only take place among
people who have mislaid what Iii tie
morals they may have statarted life
with.

TWO NRW JUDGES.
Mr.. r. Withers Memminger and Mr
George e. PrInoe.

In join t asse mbly the legislature Of
South Carolina Tuesday elected Hen.
Geo. e. Prince Of Anderson Judge Of
the tenth circuit and Mr.. R. Withers
Memminger OF Charleston Judge of
the ninth circuit. MIR. Memminger
was the nominee OF the bar OF Char.
lesion and as such had little opposi.
tion. The other nominee from the
ninth circuit was Hon. VIM. ]. Fish.
burne Of Colleton. There was very
close race between Mr.. Prince and
Hon. Thos. P. Cothran of Greenville.
There was no extended speechmak
Ing in placing the names Of the can
dida!es before the members of the
general assembly, but Mr.. Sinkler's
brief remarks in nominating Mr..
Memminger presented the picture OF
a high-minded judge In manner
which can but give to laymen a more
exalted opinion Of the bench.
Senator Peurifoy of Colleton placed
in nomination the name of a map
whose ability as lawyer and whose
integrity as a man are beyond dis
pute, man who would wear the er.
mine with credit to the State-Mr
William j. Flshburne OF Colleton. {"
rms nomination was seconded by Mr.
q. T. Sanders, who declared ttct l..
was with unfeigped pleasure that he
paid this tribute to the friend Of his
boyhood, man OF mature Judgment,
OF high character and one learned In
the law.
There were no other nominations,
and the balloting resulted in the elec.
tion OF Mr. Memminger. The vote
was as follows:
MemminRer-Senators, 2S; repre-
sentatives. 50. Total, ITO; necessary
to choice 76.
Fishburne-Senators, 8;representa.
tives, 32; total, 40. MIR. Flshburne's
candidacy had not been pushed and
the vote which he received was very
| complimentary for that reason. The
charleston delegation had been work
Ing as unit for MIR. M mminger.
The nominations or candidates for
Judge OF the tenth circuit then being
Ia order, Mr.. John r. Harrison of
Greenville nominated Mr.. Tnomas p.
Cothran OF Greenville. This was sec.
onSed by Mcssrs. l.. j. B owning of
Uniop, T. B. Fraser Of Sumter and
B. K. Keenan, OF Aiken.
Senator Hood OF Anderson noni
mated Hon. George Z. Prince and this
was seconded by Mr.. Richards, Mr..
Bruce, Mr.. Moses, Mr.. Beameuard,
DR.. E. j. Etheredge and Mr.. Ksrven.
When the senate had balloted 1t
showed that there was a ifference OF
six votes in Mr.. Princes favor In that
body. When two.thlrds OF the house
had voted the result in that body was
tie, 80 to 80. But when the last
80 names in the house had been called
IL was seen that Mr.. Prince had
gained S votes at the very last, and
this insured his election by IL votes.

blind Tiger Whtpkey.

Greenwood is a prohibition town, so
far, at least, as dispensary whiskey Is
concerned, but the blind tigers that
are evidently doing business there in
violation OF law must dispense terri.
BILE brand OF whiskey, X we are to
Judge IT by recent occurrences In that
town Some three weeks ago one Of
the policemen Of Greenwood, under
the influence Of blind tiger whlskey,
shot and killed his own son, q lad
about sixteen years OF age. The father
said the whlskey hs drank had made
him crazy and he did not know what
he was doing when he murdered his
little son. We are disposed to believe
that the poor fellow told the truth. as
people who run blind tigers, and sell
whiskey In violation OF law, are not
apt to be very particular what sort of
poison they sell their customers. The
people of Greenwood had not recover
ed from this shookinr rrder before
another killing tooa-...-,..ts sisi, their
streets. This time prominent young
business man shootu and Kills negro
boy whom he had been teasing short
time before. The teasing evidently
made the negro mad, and he threw a
rock at the young man. Then the
shooting took plac, with the result
above stated. In writing up the Kill.
ing the Greenwood Journal says that
1t does not know that whiskey was ia
any way connected With It, for it hal
not been informed :.s to whether the
young man had been drinking on the
might of the killing or not, but the
Journal ventures the assertion that
whlskey Is at the bottom of every
such tragedy. We rather agree With
the Journal, and tnat Is the reason
why we believe that whiskey should be
sold under the restraints of law rather
th.n by the irresponsible people who
run blind tigers In so.called prohibi.
tic towns like Greenwood and other,
Be h In theory and practice we are
tie totler individually, but we mucl
pr fere the handling of whlske,
th ough the dlspensaries, with tn.
re- 5rants OF law thrown around II,
thin to have 1t handled by the me
who usually run blind tigers. We d
not believe that Orangeburg woui1
suffer much In comparison with
Greenwood for law and order.

Good Democrntio Doctrine.

There is no doubt but that Presi-
dent Roosevelt is now preaching good
Democratic doctrine in his fight on
the trusts. Everything that the Presi.
dent has done so far In the interest of
the people against the trusts was ad.
Vocated by Bryan In his speeches and
IN the platform upon which he ran
for president In 1896 and 1900. The
platform Of the Democratic National
Convention, which met In Chicago in
1898, and nominated Bryan, declared
that the absorption of wealth. by the
lew, the consolidation OF our leading
railroad systems, aud the formation
or trusts and Fools require a strict

those arteries o. commerce. We de-.
mand the enlargement of the royers

protect the people from robbery and
oppression.

tional Democrat ic Convention, which
met at Kansa; City In 1900 and
which again nominated Bryan, after

an enlargement of the powers Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission, to
the end that the travelling public and
shippers OF this Government may have
prompt and adequlte relief from the
abuses to which they were subjected
In the matter OF transportation.
In both the campaigns following
the adoption Of these demands by the
National Democratic party Bryan In
his speeches or the stump pledged
himself to carry them out as far as he
was able should he be elected. In fact
he was the author Of these demands
and had them put in the platforms
In the face OF these facts 1t must be
most gratifying to Bryans to have
President Rco evelt adopt his views
and'his party's platforms and attempt
to carry them out. 1t shows that
Bryan Is great man, and that, while
he was defeated by wholesale bribery
and the purchase Of the election by
the Republicans, he so impressed his
Views upon the country that the Re.
publican president had to take them
up and try to carry them out to save
his party from defeat In the next
presidential eleotion, when no doubt
Bryan and the same issues will lead
the Democratic host to victory.

"As president of the South Carolina
Bankers association, and as mem.
Der OF the executive committee above

this circular. Prompt action in the
matter Is very important, as what is
done In the way Of reducing acre age
must be done at once. In view of thr
large cotton crop of 1904 O5 it is q
matter of vital Importance that some
systematic plan be made and carried
out to insure small crop for the pres.

surely be disastrous, not only to the
farmer, but TO the banker as we'll, anc
