Riot in Aiken County.

Columbia, Special.-A race riot Is In
progress at Bush, in Aiken county, the
scene of the old Ellenton riots OF the
reconstruction period. So far white
man named Burwell McClain is dead,
and his son mortally wounded and two
negroes are dangerously wounded.
These were fired upon from the house
of a negro named Gordon High. Nc
CLAIM had been deputized to go and
bring a negro child to magistrate, the
child being in dispute in case to be
tried before the magistrate. High de-
fed McClain, who was REINFORCED by
his son, and two negroes and High and
his friends fired upon the approach
ing party, with the result that Burwell
was killed and the others wounded.
High then made his escape into the
forest. Other negroes have armed
themselves with Winchesters and shot
guns and declared that they will pro-
tect High, after whom large and we'll
armed posse has started. High will be
lynched when he Is caught. A long dis
tance phone message from Aiken says
further bloodshed is expected.

Nav Die From Horses Kicks.

Chester, Special.-A fearful, horrible
and possibly fatal accident occurred
here Thursday afternoon about 100
o'clock. Mr.. P. G. McCorkle was driv-
Ing with his wife and little boy out
near the park and the horse very sud-
denly became frightened and got be-
yond control. He ran from the street
across the hills near the park and threw
the occupants out Of the buggy. Mrs.
McCorkle escaped with slight injury,
but was fearfully shocked; little Billy
was unhurt, but Mr.. McCorkle sus-
tanned several kicks in the face that
the doctors think will prove fatal. He
held to the lines and the horse kicked
him twice, the blows landing just under
the left eye, breaking the eye lid and
check bone, and directly in the mouth
and nose. He Is terribly mangled and
at this hour is unconscious. Drs. Cox
and Mcconnell are attending him and
everything in their power will be done
to save the patient.

w. F. KIumpp G. Co.'s Cotton Crop
Letter.

The following cotton crop letter is
furnished by Messrs. w. F. klumpp &
Co.:
The weather conditions the past
fortnight have continued unfavorable,
and private advices with few excep-
tions report the crop to be very back
ward, compared with last season, far
mers being unable to work the fields
on account of the protracted rains. In
the eastern belt, the plant is making
better progress than in the central and
western belt, but as a rule over the
entire region the crop is doing poorly,
especially in Alabama, Mississippi and
Louisiana, where the plant is badly in
the grass, and in Texas and Arkansas,
where the outlook in many sections
is very discouraging, farmers having
been unable to finish planting, and
some fields being abandoned on ac-
count of wet weather.
The crop is about two weeks later
than usual. and considering the reduc-
ton in acreage, Of about 15., as per
our crop letter Of the thirteenth ult.,
the weather conditions Of the next
thirty days are Of greatest importance,
as they will throw more light on the
chances for a crop in keeping with
consumption.
Weather conditions will continue 10
govern prices for some time 10 come.

State Board Of EquiIization.

The State Board Of Equalization ad-
journed Thursday night. Thursday the
board listened to extended arguments
on the matter Of assessing the Colum-
Gia canai and upon raising the assess
ments OF the mills in Chester.
Mr.. J. L. G. White. OF Chester fought
for dollar for dollar valuation on the
mills there, but Mr.. 7. X. Elliott, Of
Winnsboro and Mr.. A. C .Brice. Of
Chester, argued in behalf OF the mills,
and the assessments were reduced.
In regard to the assessment of the
Columbia canal, the following resolu-
tion was passed.:
Whereas, article Z, chapter IA, of
the code Of laws Of South Carolina,
1902, providing for the assessment for
the purpose of taxation by the State
Board Of Equalization Of canals pro-
Viding power for rent or hire
is not sufficiently broad to provide for
the assessment by said board Of indi-
viduals, firms or corporations provid-
ing power for rent or hire directly
from the natural water powers, rivers
and streams in the State; and, where
as, such individuals, firms or corpora
tions so engaged should be taxed upon
the same basis as corporations furnish
ing like power from canals:
BE it resolved by the State Board
of equalization, That the General As
sembly be memorialized to amend Sec
tion 309 of the code Of laws of South
Carolina, 1902, by striking out the
words and canals providing power for
rent or hire and inserting in lieu there
OF the words, and all individuals, firms
or corporations engaged in furnishing
or providing for rent or hire power de-
rived from canals, water powers, riv-
ers and streams in the State, so that
all individuals, firms or corporations
engaged in furnishing power for rent
or hire derived from water power in
this State shall be assessed and taxed
upon the same basis.

pear before the grand jury Monday.

SOUTH CAROLINA CROP BULLETIN
Conditions For Past Week as Given
Out by the Department.

Out by the department..
The first of the week ending Mon
day, June 5th, was warm, the middle
portion cool, and the close had normal
temperature. There was widespread
complaint that cool nights were un-
favorable on cotton. There was more
than the usual amount Of sunshine
over the western and central parts
and less than usual over the eastern
parts. There were local high, damag
ing winds in the northeastern coun'
ties on the S0th and 31st, accompany.
ing thunderstorms.
A large portions Of the State had
40 rain during the week. but there
were heavy rains in the east central,
eastern and southern counties on the
Both and 31st, further delaying farm
work and increasing the foulness OF
corn and cotton.
Farm work made rapid progress ov.
er the larger portion of the State, but
cultivation is difficult owing to the
rank growth Of grass and weeds and
the rapid drying OF he soil which rem
ders it baken and crusted. The wealth
ar was generally favorable for growth
Of crops, and there rs a marked in
provement noted where they have
been cultivated, but the general condi.
ton Of all field crops is still poor.
There is a marked improvement i11

ed, especially on clay soils, but is
still poor, yellow and small on sandy
and gray soils, with less complaint OF
plants dying than last week. Lice
are prevalent in the central and east.
ern counties. There yet remains a
small portion of the crop to chop to
stands. Favorable progress was made
in cleaning fields Of grass and weeds.
but much remains foul, and some Will
be abandoned owing to the rank
growth of grass and the scarcity OF
laborers. First squares have been
noted in many parts Of the State.
The conditions of corn Is variable.
ranging from good to very poor, and
much of the crop Is suffering for want
Of cultivation. In many places 1t is
yellow and undersiZed. Where proper
ly cultivated it Is fine. Bottom lands
were prepared and planted during the
week. Worms continue destructive in
the southern counties. Rice looks
fairly we'll. A large acreage of June
rice will be planted in the GEORGETOWN
district. Melons are late. Wheat is
being harvested and the yields are
poor, owing to rust and too much
rain. Oats are ripe and being gener,
ally harvested, with yields ranging
rrom excellent to poor. Spring oats
continue promising. Peaches are be.
ing shipped; the quality is good, but
the fruit is small. In places peaches
are rotting badly. Gardens are doing
well but need rain in the west. Pas
lures good. Minor crops generally
promising.-J. w. Bauer, Section Di-
rector.

Grey Pelham had sat as motionless

been turned to stone. Honorable gen-

scorned the idea of eavesdroppins: but

Disenchanted - undeceived! The
