SPEAKING AT FAIRFIELD.

The Marion county candidates who
met with so little encouragement at
Fort Mccoy and Mcintosh Jared better
at Fairfield Saturday.
There were perhaps more than
hundred present and the candidates
said 1t was a reminder of "old times"
Justice f. S. Smith presided at the
meeting, and introduced the speakers
In very graceful manner.
Those who were present say that all
the candidates acquitted themselves
well and that DR.. Baskin, candidate
for state senator, and Messrs. Davis
and Sistrunk. candidates for the office
of state attorney, made especially
pleasing and forceful speeches.
The sensation of the day occurred
when Mr.. E. c. Mcleod, candidate for
senator, mounted the stand. He read
the letters written to him by Can't.
ID. II. Baker, of Sumter county (print
ed in Fridays Daily Banner), and
said that he did not officially announce
himself candidate for this office I'M
I'll he had positive assurances from
Captain Baker that he would not be a
candidate, but on the contrary. would
do all in his power to throw the vote
OF Sumter county to Mcleod But he
would be true to what he had said. and
took that occasion to say that he was
no longer in the race, but as he had
been disappointed in Captain Baker
and had been treated with courtesy
and kindness 'by DR.. Baskin That he
advised his friends TO vote for him.
Another mild sensation was created
when Hon. VI. l.. Payne took The plat
form and made one of his usual elo-
quent and humorous speeches. He said
that he had his political graveyard at
Fairfield recently renovated: that he
had some new mounds erected. and
that they were all covered with fresh
and fragrant flowers and were waiting
to have the defeated candidates depos-
lied th@rein. re enumerated those. tnaI
he had already Inferred, among others
was MS Old friend joe Mathews, He
said ne had taken the measurement Of
some of the candidates and they woul6
be seen 10 be exact fits. and if the can
diqates We're interested in their politi.
cal fate a look over his graveyard
might be Of interest to them. and in
Vjted the whole bunch" to give il an
inspection and they would see wheth-
ne was true or false prophet
All the candidates for the state leg
is lature made addresses and MIR.
Light explained his with diagrams and
cartoons. and Mr.. George c.. Mathews
made his maiden speech during the
present canvass
All the candidates made most ex-
cellent Impressions and every one of
them is predicting that they will have
a majority at Fairfield.
True 10 its reputation the good ladies
OF that neighborhOod had prepared
most excellent and bnuntiful feast
which proved to be the chief attrac-
tion Of the occasion.
All the speakers are speaking in
praise Of the people of. Fairfield and
especially of its fair women.

FIRE At BELIEvIEW.
Seminole Hotel and Drug Store Be-
longing TO Dr.. T. K. Slaughter De-
stroyed-Small Insurance.

Early Saturday morning a fire was
discovered in the Seminole Hotel at
Belleview, and it had made such head
way that all efforts to save it proved
futile, and it was entirely destroyed.
A part of the hotel was used as a
drug store, and its contents were also
destroyed. Both the hotel and drug
store belonged to DR.. T. X Slaughter,
formerly of this city. He had just rem
Ovated the hotel, refurnished it and
put it in splendid shape, and was do
ing a fine business. DR.. Slaughter sue
ceeded in saving only few of his
personal effects. The building and con-
cents carried only an insurance of
$500.
DR.. Slaughter's friends in this city
sympathize with him in his loss.

CORaA@


 Hartford, Conn, Dec. S.-.The long pnding Danbury boycott case. oinvolv- ing allegations of conspiracy, brought bv Dietrich E. Loewe and Martin Fuchs against Martin Lawlor and oth- CTS, has been settled. Judge Tlatt of the United States Circuit Court dis missing the complaint.
 The decision is on a demurrer of the defendants. The plaintiffs alleg- ed that the defendants were Illegally using their labe and that q combina- tion had been formed to limit the plaintiffs trade. It was also alleged that the defendants endeavored to unionize the plaintiffs factory and, failing to do so, declared a boycott on hats made by the plaintiff, which were found in the hands of plaintiffs custo- mers in other States than Connecticut, notably California and Virginia.
 Judge Platt's opinion declares that while 1t is obvious that the defendants sought to eurtail, and if possible, to destroy, the plaintiffs production of hats. and It's distribution of the pro- duet, q. ere Is no allegation suggest ing that the means of transporting the product or the product itself while in transportation was "toushed. han dled. obstructed or in any manner ac- tually interfered with" end that there Is no allegation that the de- fendants are in any way engaged in interstate commerce"

As we have said a day or two ago, there are no comparatives but close investigation discf6ses the fact ths that me the average days ginnigs for much as it is probable that there was less ginned during the period, December lst to 18th, of that year when compared with results from November 14th to December 1st 1t is most likely that the daily ginnings of the period, November 14th to December lst of lso4 were somewhat heavier than during the period ending November 3Oth.
 In other words the out-turn of gins for the period under discussin of that year were about the same as they were this year probably little heavier. owing to the im- mense crop of that year Mir.

It is probable that a census report showing more than 10, 100, 600 bales ginned to December 1st. will be con- stTued as bearish. as uch & report would place the basis of ginnings compared with last year an actual growth basis for this year of more than 12,572. 900 bales. because of, the opinion that there remains more cot ton to be ginned this year than was ac- counted for after this date year ago. figures of 10100,000 would show 1,410,000 excess over last years s.6S0,000.
