month. The work OF establishing SER
vice Is proceeding as rapidly as possi-
BILE, under the requirements Of civil
service examination of the candidates
for rural carriers on the routes approv-
ed Rural routes are being ordered In
to effect at an average rate OF about
600 a month. OF the 4,708 cases pend
ing, SS4 were ordered into operation
either for May Is or June l. With the
beginning of the new fiscal year, July
l, when the new appropriation for rural
free delivery becomes effective, large
number of new routes will be establish
ed, the service to start August l. An
analysis of the tables presented indi-
Gates that the service has grown most
rapidly in the twenty-nine states Sc
lected for the experimental test of ru-
raj free delivery in 1896. In Maine five
routes were started in Cumberland
county in November and December,
1896. There are now 3S3 routes in op-
Grafton, and the rural sections Of the
state are so nearly covered that only
SO petitions were pending May l, 1905.
In Illinois service was first established
in Sangamon, the home county Of Pres
ident Lincoln and Senator Cullom, De-
cember 10, 1896. There have beel 353
new services started during the year;
there are 2,47S existing routes and only
1873 petitions pending. The greatest
pressure of the continuation and ex-
tension of the service Is coming from
the southern states. Alabama has 232
petitions on file; Georgia, 342; North
Carolina, 366; Virginia, 236, and South
Carolina, ia. For several years Mis-
sissippi, Arkansas and Texas held
aloof, their representatives to congress
declining to indorse any petitions for
interference with the old service by
village post offices and star routes.
Now there are pending 203 petitions for
establishment Of rural free delivery In
Mississippi, 103 in Arkansas and 308
in Texas; and there are established
services in each of these states as
follows: Mississippi. 243; Arkansas,
1872. and Texas, 1852.

CONDITION OF COTTON.

While there are numerous large fields
Of good cotton scattered about over the
country, there is no doubt Of the fact
that the average condition Of this crop
is poorer than has been known at this
season for a good many years.
Reports of the rural free delivery
carriers ont Of Yorkville agree as to
average conditions. These reports are
to the effect that some Of the farmers
have managed to keep close In after
their crops in spite of the unfavorable
weather conditions and have gotten
them as clean as usual without having
any bad effects from plowing too wet,
ETC. These cases, however, are the ex-
ception rather than the rule. There are
numerous fields that have been cleaned
of grass all right enough, but at the
same time by reason Of having been
worked wet, are cloddy and rough.
There are other crops In which the
grass got a good start and kept II,
and while 1t is not practicable to give
anything like an accurate estimate Of
the number OF acres that have been en-
:irely lost. the percentage is probably
larger than has ever been known be-
fore.
While conditions now are anything
but encouraging, 1t Is a fact that the
farmers are still fighting with all their
might, and they are gaining rather
than losing. There is a strong prob
ability of much improvement during
the next thirty days.

There was a full meeting OF the
board of directors Of the First Nation

The report of the cashier showed a
handsome surplus and profit on hand,

Messrs. Nichols Bros. have de-
cided to put granolithic paving along
the front of the building occupied by
j. NJ. Heath & Co. The sidewalk at
this point was already paved with
granite, and was the best in town: but
the change Is being made in order to
contribute to the uniformity that Is
now practicable, and because 1t Is
claimed that granolithic work Is really
better than stone for paving purposes.

The town of Sumter has Joined In
the scramble for the location Of the
Presbyterian College Of South Carroll
ma and will make a liberal offer.
Contractor Haas who is putting
down the granolithic sidewalks along
Main street and elsewhere, states that
the life of work Of this character Is
easily fifteen or twenty years. He has
seldom known cement to crack or
crumble to considerable extent, and
when It does crack or crumble, 1t is
because of the use Of inferior materials,
or because Of improper application.
The wheat and oat harvest is about
completed. Reports are to the effect
that wheat is generally failure for
the most part, having been eaten up
with rust. UP to this time the reporter
has not heard of single crop that
gave even an average yield. Oats are
pretty fair except where they have
been drowned out by too much water
There are a good many small fields OF
WHEAT dUOul lildt are liot SoiioioS'Se
worth cutting.
The rural free delivery system Is
very we'll calculated to bring about re-
adjustment Of trade relations in that
the people living along rural route
will naturally look to the centre from
which the routes emanate. We would
not be understood as assuming this to
be matter of course, under all cir
cumstances, for there are exceptions to
all rules. other things being equal
however, the people Of the centre from
which a number Of routes emanate
have the advantage with respect to
both social and commercial relations
to be supplied. This subject, is worthy
of careful consideration at the hands
of all interested for in the future II
will amount to something.

Bundren. Enmity has existed between
the Holland and Bundren family for
the past four years. 1t grew out Of the
killing OF Col. John Crozier by Bruce
Bundren, father of the man killed to-
day, for which crime the elder Bundren
Is serving a life sentence In the pen
itentiary. Trouble which threatened
was avoided, but today Bundren accom-
panied by the negro entered the black
smith shop of the Hollands and after
"a few words firing began. Twenty
shots were fired and when the smoke
cleared away three men lay dead on
the floor of the shop and the fourth
was mortally wounded. The Hollands
used Winchesters and Bundren and
Winkle used pistols. Will Holland and
Bundren were married men, aged 35
and 25 respectively. John Holland was
unmarried and 25 years Of age. The
death of the Hollands wiped out the
entire family with the exception of the
parents.

DR.. P. H. Nell, president Of Clemson
college Is asking the newspapers of the
state to publish gratuitously some ad-
vertising matter In the interest Of the
institution over which he presides. We
are quite sure that most of our con-
temporaries will comply with the doc
tors request without a thought that
they are being imposed upon. Those
who desire to pursue this course are al
liberty to 10 so. We, however, have
taken a d. Terent view of the matter
We are unable to see that Clemson col
lege has any more claim on THE EN-
QUEER than 1t has upon any other
business concern. and we can see no
what we are unwilling to do for other
colleges. II President Nell desires to
use the columns Of THE ENQUIRER In
business way. we will be glad to have
him do so. and If, for any reason this
arrangement does not suit him, we
have no complaint to make. We are
quite sure. however that we will not
print his advertising matter free of
charge-not until the supply houses
undertake to give him groceries with
out sending bills. and his professors
cease to look for pay for their services
We would it were so that everybody
could work for everybody else without
pay: but we have seen no indications
of the arrival of such a time, and we
do not propose to try to inaugurate the
system-not in advance Of an under
standing with those who look to us for
their pay for weekly wages, etc. 1t
is commonly understood that Clemson
has more money than she can spend.
This money comes from the taxpayers.
of which we are one. We do not ask
for cent Of it gratuitously, nor does
1t make any material difference with
us whether Clemson sees proper to
give 1t to us for advertising space: but
we do insist that having already paid
our taxes, DIR. Nell has no more right
to ask us for further contributions than
he has to ask such contributions of
other people in other lines of business.

- Columbia State, Thursday: The
jury in the case of the State VS.. Julius
r. Eison, who was on trial for the kill
ing of Jim Long, colored, failed to
agree yesterday and Judge Gary order
ed a mistrial. 1t will be remembered
that the defendant, a dispensary con-
stable, killed the negro while he was
attempting to escape from a police Of
ficer. The coroner's jury exonerated
the constable, but he requested that a
true bill be brought against him.
Although there had been a true bill
brought against him, Eison was not ar
rested and on Tuesday the presiding
judge issued a bench warrant and Els
on was taken in custody by the sheriff.
The case was called for trial yesterday,
and after hearing the testimony the
Jury retired. Twice they came into
the court room and announced that they
were unable to agree on a verdict. Af-
ter the statement of the jury that
there was no possibility Of an agree
ment. the judge ordered a mistrial.
Eison was released on $4,000 bond. The
following were on the jury: Daniel
Zimmerman, foreman; VIM. Terry, G..
W. Duren, E. J. Zobel, c. B. Dreher.
Aaron David, Adam Price, P. P. Rob-
erts, John A. Moore, P. r. Livingston.
]. L. Spearman, r. j. Wynn. 1t was
rumored about the court house that
the jury stood seven for acquittal and
five for conviction.

At the monthly meeting of the
county farmers union in Anderson last
Tuesday it was decided to establish
warehouses i'm the county for the pur-
pose of storing cotton and controlling
the price of the staple as far as possi-
BILE. The plan has been carefully map
ped out by leading farmers. and they
are confident that it will be carried out
with complete success. The warehouses
will be owned and controlled by the
farmers of the county and the scheme
provides for storage of cotton and the
borrowing of money upon Ii until the
price Is high enough to justify sale.

TIE YoRKvILLE ENQUIRER Is au-
thority for the statement that members
Of the Yorlsville committee who went
to Clinton recently in behalf of York
ville's bid for the Presbyterian College
of South Carolina report that the
States account Of the proceedings did
not give correct idea of the situation
and the Yorkville paper implies that
the State Is biased in the interest OF
Columbia. The States new columns
are about as unbiased as is possible In
any newspaper. Reporters and CORES
pondents are expected to furnish the
news only. The report In question
was, we believe, unbiased; against no
town, "fav' rable' to no town, and the
State invites THE ENQUIRER to ask for
and print the opinion Of Mr.. c. E.
Spencer, chairman Of the Yorkville
committee. on this question.-Columbia
State.
THE ENQUIRER will take pleasure In
publishing any opinion the gentleman
to whom the State appeals may see
proper to furnish.

WHILE the threats Of the Chinese to
boycott American products are natur-
ally calculated to arouse the spirit Of
fight, still 1t must be acknowledged
that their quarrel is rather just and to

creditable TO any individual or nation,
however weak or strong.

WE are little nettled maybe when
we are told that the Chinese exclude
foreigners from certain portions Of
their empire; but somehow our pique
does not cause us to even think of the
fact that we are not willing to allow

our own country.
