The Brookland Fraud Case.

Lexington, spccial-In the court Of
general sessions Geo. 3. McCombs, eN-
mayor Of New Brookland, along with
7. D. Mitchell, formerly town police
man, and M. L. Fox were found gull
ty Of tampcring with the election re,
turns Of the municipal election held
in New Brookland on the 9th OF last
May. At that time McComhs was the
intendant of that town, and he stood
for reelection, being opposed by Mr..
q. S. Gunnell. The managers OF the
election, appointed by McCombs, were
NJ. L. Fox and George l. Busbee, who,
it was claimed, entered into con-
spiracy with McCombs and Mitchell
to declare the reelection Of Mccombs
and his ticket regardless Of how the
ballots counted. The election returns
were so manipulated that McConl6s
was declared to be elected; Gunncll
and his friends were satisfied thai
fraud has been pcrpetratcd and-they
contested the declaration oil slnc-
Combs election to The extent even
of having warrant sworn ont
against the managers and Mitchell,
Which resulted in Gunnell's being de-
clarcd entitled to the Office Of intend
ant. Judge Ernest Gary sentenced
each of the defendants to four months
on the chaingang or pay line Oh
S75 each. They were taken to jail.

Fifteen years ago it would have
t.en impossible to get Europeans to
come south in colonies on account OF
the distorted views of social condi-
tions here entertained by the people
of contintntal Europe. But through
his own aud other agencies all such
fears have been dissipated and these
people are ready to come hepe and
become settlers.
In addition TO the 10000 acres OF
which he contracted last September,
Captain Lindburg has secured options
on G,000 acres in an adjoining tract
and 3,100 acres in another, making
nearly 10000 acres in all in Aiken
county. Besides these, he has OPP
tons on 10000 acres near McBee and
25,OO0 acres in another tract sur
rounding the town Of Mcl3ee on the
Seaboard road i'll Chesterfield county.
The Aiken lands are fertile and are
suitable for truck farming. The Ches-
tcrield lands are poor but are well
adapted to fruit raising
One OF the McBee tracts has been
disposed of to Mr.. Han1borg of New
York, president Of the Finland
Steamship and Navigation company,
Mr.. Hamborg will have this tract set
tied as soon as possible. The Films
are a very clannish people and all
tile Firms coming to America conduct
their banking business through Mr.
Hambrog. He, therefore, will see
that none but desirable people will be
sent to populate the 10000 acres III
Chesterfield county.

the country districts. In the North Al
lantic division, however, it was al
most as great in the cities as in the
country. In the Southern division it is
hardly more than half as large in the
cities as in the country; While IN the
far West the difference is interme-
diate in amount. This, it is explained,
is probably due, in large measure, 10
the fact that the immigrant population
who have been swarmng into tne
Northern cities of recent years, espe-
cially into the cities Of the North Al
lantic States, havt multiplying
lantic States, have been multiplying
by numerous births with much rapid
ity, while the corresponding labormg
class which has inlmigrated to South
ern cities from the surrounding coun-
try districts has not been thus lhcfcas'
ing"
a comparison is made between the
proportion Of children born of native
mothers to 1000 native women OF
child.bcaring age and the proportion OF
children bern of foreign-born mothers
to 1000 foreign-born women OF child
bearing age. In 1900 the former pro
portion was 4G2, the latter 710, the
difference indicating the greater fccun'
dity Of foreign-born women. The bulle-
tin continues:
"The comparison also indicates that
the total decrease in fecundlty OF
white women between 1880 and l9oo
was the result Of decrease for native
white women, partly offset by an in
crease for foreign-born white women.
"In the Atlantic divisions, how
ever. there was slight increase in the
proportion OF children born to native
white mothers, and in the South cen.
tral division there was but slight de-
crease. The decrease for tho whole
country, therefore, was the result very
largely OF the great decrease n the
North central and Western divisions.
