SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS.

Charleston was the centre Of seri-
Gus tropical disturbance last Saturday
afternoon. During an hour or two
the wind reached velocity of sixty
five miles an hour. Fences and other
light structures were blown down and
the water rose several feet in houses
close to the rivers. Ships that had
started to sea came back for protec-
ton, and although full information has
not yet been received It Is thought that
many fishing and other small boats
may have been lost. The ferry boat
had a very rough time going across
the harbor to the city from Mount
Pleasant. The storm subsided late In
the afternoon as the result of slight
change in the course of the wind.
= Spartanburg, October %: A report
from Jonesville, Union county. tonight
says that proclamation has been
posted in that town warning all worth
less and indolent negroes, male and fe-
male, to leave Immediately. their fall
ure to do so to be followed by drastic
measures. It Is said there Is no excite
ment, but those who caused the notices
to be posted are determined. A Jones'
Vile farmer named Johnson was
threatened by negro at Union yester-
day and Johnson's friends nearby ad-
ministered a severe beating upon the
person of the negro. who fed to a col
ored church. His sudden entrance
while services were in progress precip-
itated q sensation and there would
doubtless have been serious trouble IL
the officers had not arrived at an op-
perfume moment. 1t Is thought that
the action Of the Jonesville citizens
grew out Of the trouble at Union. It
Is believed that there will be further
trouble at Union or Jonesville and that
certain negroes Of the latter place will
heed the warning and get out
Commander Johnson, white man,
was hanged at Conway, Horny county,
last Friday for the murder Of Rev. Har-
mon Granger, q Baptist preacher, on
June 23, 1905. The murder was in the
form Of deliberate assassination, Mr.
Granger being shot from ambush while
he was plowing In field. At first
there was very little suspicion as to
who did the killing: but little by little
the facts came out. Johnson had for
some months past been living in open
adultery with a Mrs. Charlotte Sim
mons, and Mr.. Granger had frequently
denounced his conduct as crime
against the laws of God and man. The
preacher had also instituted move
ment to present the case to the grand
jury. After the killing 1t developed
that johnson and the woman had been
seen In the neighborhood that day, the
former carrying a shot gun. Both de-
MED all knowledge Of the shooting.
Johnson claiming that he had merely
gone out after squirrels. There was
testimony however to the effect that
Johnson had threatened the preacher
and as the result of the trial the jury
had no doubt Of the mans guilt The
woman was recommended to mercy.
There was q strong effort to have john
son pardoned but the governor resisted
the effort, Notwithstanding threats OF
an attempt to release the man from
jail. On the gallows Johnson declined
to make a confession, claiming that he
knew nothing Of the murder. Rev. Mr..
Granger, the man who was murdered,
was q first class citizen and was
martyr to his duty.

Cotton as Currency.

The address that Mr.. Charles ]. Had
den of Atlanta delivered before the
American Bankers association at st.
Louis the other day, and which is re-
produced in full elsewhere in this is
sue, is commended to the careful con-
sideration Of all of our readers.
We are impressed with this address
not only because it deals with the sub
ject of especial concern to the southern
people; but because in a practical
manner it points out the means by
which the people of the south could, In
a few years be made the richest and
most prosperous people on earth.
There is no disputing the fact that
of all the products Of land or sea,
whether from fields, forests, mines or
workshops, there is no commodity that
is in more continuous or universal de-
mand than cotton. And neither is
there any good reason to doubt the
conclusion that Mr.. Hadden has adopt
ed from generations gone before that
the southern states of America have a
practical monopoly of its production.
The United States Of America now
make up the richest nation that has
ever existed on the face Of the earth,
and If Mr.. Hadden had seen fit to try
to lay his premises still deeper than he
had already laid them, he would have
been safe in defying all the political
economist now living or who will ever
live to show that southern cotton is
not the real basis of all this wealth.
But have the people OF the south been
getting their share of the wealth they
have been producing? That is a ques-
ton for the consideration of every in
telligent mind in the cotton region. AS
we see 1t, we would answer the ques-
tion in the negative. Why they have

THERE is a difference somehow
whose favor, let some one else say. In
New York city a rich shyster lawyer
named Abe Hummel, under conviction
for subornation OF perjury in case In
court, has been denied bail pending an
appsal. and Harry Thaw, a very rich
young man, is still languishing In the
Tombs prison awaiting trial for the
killing Of a man about his wife. In
South Carolina If rich man, or man
of any prominence, slips up on his enc
my and shoots him in the back he Will
find a circuit judge to grant him pan
in the sum Of a few thousands, thus
prejudging the case in the murderer's
favor. It is safer to kill a man In
South Carolina than in New York. And
that is why human life Is cheaper In
this state.-Newberry Observer.

as the Mergenthaler linotype" remarks
the Charlotte Chronicle, 'fs great
machine. 1t is in demand all over the
world and publishers wanting to equip
their offices or add to their batteries,
have to wait their turn. The annual
report Of the company for the year end
ed September 80, shows receipts from
the sale Of machines Of $2,Ss5,S49, an
increase, as compared with 1905, OF
$254,46O. The entire net receipts from
all sources during the year were ST.
733,752, an increase of $529,232. This
Is equal to about 25 per cent earned
on the $1O,96O,000 capital stock out
standing. During the year 9Ss new lin
otypes were built and forty-one limo
type juniors. Shipments during the
year aggregated 1000, Of which LOIS
were linotypes. forty-four linotype jun
iors and twenty-one monolones. And
yet the printer whose brain conceived
this linotype, died in the poor house."

BRYAN planning NEW PARTY.-That
the Bryan LaFollette move to form a
new party. pledged to overturn trusts
and railroad influences alleged by them
to control the government, is being
held up by the refusal Of Roosevelt to
lend himself to the new deal, is re-
ported current in Wisconsin today as a
result of yesterdays mysterious confer
ence between Bryan and LaFollette on
the way from Milwaukee to Madison
and then into Iowa.
The two politician lecturers, 1t Is
rumored, have secured the support OF
Folk of Missouri; Cummins of Iowa,
and Weaver of Pennsylvania, in their
new campaign, and the support OF
Roosevelt, II is said, is all that re-
mains to make the new plan public
property.
The Bryan -LaFOllette conference
yesterday followed the speech of Bry-
an, in Milwaukee, in which he declar-
ed that Roosevelt was right In his
moves against corporations. He then
went on to say that nine-tenths OF La
Follettes followers in Wisconsin were
true Democrats, and he gave his
heartiest Endorsement to LaFollette,
saying that he came to the state to
fight for the candidate who was pitted
against the corporation Republican,
who had defeated LaFollette, who, he
said, should have been given the lead
in the congressional rate bill fight last
winter.-Milwaukee, Wis, dispatch to

nearly II not quite 1.200 people lost
their lives on the Florida Keys. The
