They say, it's an accepted fact no store sells such quantities of Teas, Cof- fees and Groceries at such low prices. This being the case, it follows we buy great quantities and always. for cash. therefore it's logical to assume we get large concessions in prices that smaller buyers do not. This. with q moderate profit at which we sell, explains why we can give you these low prices as below, and the extra stamps.

KILLING OF CONSTABLE HOL
STEIN.
Augusta Chronicle.


Editor Chronicle : Noting the article
in your columns of yesterday 1t seems
az If my statement to your reporter
concerning the killing Of state Consta-
BILE j. C.. Holstein by w. F. Cothran
at Mccormick last Monday afternoon
is q little mixed. Since my return /
have interviewed several reliable men
who were eye witnesses to the affair;
also the marshal who was trying to
take the pistol away from Cothran.
As told to me by these parties, the
trouble began as follows:
w. F. Cothran and lump Wide
man had engaged In q difficulty on
one of the back streets. In the diff
Guilty Cothran received two knife
wounds. They were separated and
Wideman came on down to main
street, with Cothran following, threat
ening to shoot him. He was met by
Town Marshal Brown, who attempted
to disarm him and called upon several
to help him. Cothran threatened to
shoot him il he did not turn bis pistol
loose, One or two others had hold Of
him when Mr., Holstein walked up
and tried to prevail upon Cothran to
give up his pistol. Cothran replied
that if be (Holstein) put his hands
upon him he would kill him. Cory
Palmer, q brother.in-law Of Cothran
walked up about this time and took
hold Of Holstein's arm and told Goth
ran to "Go his link, he wonld back
him." Holstein turned Cothrsn loose
stepped back about three feet, when
Cothran fired at him. Hoistein threw
his hands to bis side and saidi You
have killed me-" Cothran turned the
pistol loose after firing. Holstein In
the meanwhile had drawn his own
pistol. and walked up to Cothran,
pressed the weapon to Cothran's face
and said 'You have killed me, and If
YOU were armed I would kill you"
He then placed the pistol in his pock-
ct and walked to my office about forty
or fifty yards.
Sheriff Lyon, of: Abbeville, came
down yesterday and arrested Cothran
and Palmer and placed them In jail at
Cothran is charged with
murder and Palmer as accessory.
II seems to be question as to
whether it was accidental or inten toll
al, as there was personal enmlty be-
tween Holstein and Palmer. Holstein
had been in Mccormick for the past
two and a half years, as state constable
and had made himself very popular
by being faithful in the discharge OF
his duties and his gentlemanly con-
duct.
Sheriff Lyon promptly went to Nc
Cormick upon hearing of this unfortu-
nate affair, and brought Mr.. Cothran
to Abbeville. Mr.. Cothran is now In
iail. He has retained w. N. Graydon,
esq. as attorney.

Columbia Jan. 26.-A COMMITTEE

STAND BY THE PRICE.

Stand firm for fifteen cents. Sell
your cotton at that price, and donot
undertake to force the market still
higher. Our position Is based upon
equity and fairness, and no effort
should be made to 60 beyond that.
Let us see be fair with the spinners;
and in making sales let 1t be distinct
" understood that the buyer will ship
the cotton direct to the manufacturers,
and that the cotton is not being bought
for the purpose of tenders on specula-
tive contracts in the cotton exchanges
of the country. Notify your cotton
factors that this rule must be strictly
adhered to. Let the speculators who
have been "bearing" the market and
who are short on their contracts, get
out of their perilous positions the best
way they can. We must confine our
dealings with the legitimate cause OF
consumption, and protect the spinners
and our own interests from abnormal
ly high or low prices brought about
through speculative influences. 1t II
now an established fact, the present
crop will not exceed 10000, 900 bales,
OF 500 pounds weight. There will not
be enough cotton to meet the enor-
nous demands for consumption.
These are facts which have not been
and cannot be, denied except by mis-
representation and juggling of figures
for speculative purposes. Those farm
ers who recklessly rushed their cotton
on the market and sacraficed it at 9 IL
to 10 cents, ought not to complain II
their neighbors are still holding por.
tion of theirs for higher prices. If
the spinners bought the bulk of this
crop at from 1-2 to 1912 cents per
uound, when they could as easily have
paid IL cents. they should not now
complain if the small balance Of the un
sold portion is held at Is cents, in or
der TO average the price as near l:
cents as possible, The price of cottor
has advanced $3.50 bale since th'
New Orleans Convention: and Is daily
advancing, on its merits and in th'
face of the strongest combination 4
hold down prices, that ever existed
Wall Street and Liverpool have los
their power Of fixing the price of th'
great American staple. The southern
spots holder is now the dominant fac
tor in the cotton trade of the world
His cause is righteous one, and will
receive the endorsement and support o
every loyal southerner, who believes IL
fair play in the great fight which
now waging, The south can win AM
will win.
Yours truly,

Pres. 8. C. A.

PLAN 4 M'NNLtY
MEMORIAL AVIARY

The latest plan for the Mckinley
Memorial, which plan, by the way, is
attributed to Mr.. Bryan OF Kamehame-
ha Schools, is to establish an aviary
for tropical birds on the grounds al
ready donated in the McCully tract.
Il approve of the plan most heart
iy," said Senator Dickey yesterday.
There are eight thousand dollars in
the fund. and they already have the
land. An aviary could be established
that would be as distinctive and that
might acquire as much note in it's way
as the Aquarium has. There has been
some talk of calling the Seaside Park
to be made at Waikiki Mckinley
Park and devoting the fund to that,
but that would be lost as to it's iden-
tity in Kapiolani Park, and would not
be at all a fitting Mckinley memorial.
The aviary is better"
