Cotton Crop Conditions.

The bureau of statistics find that
the average reports of its correspon-
dents and agents that the average
condition of cotton on July 25th was
S2.s, as compared with S2.4, the ten
year average. There was less than
one per cent. of deterioration during
the month of July.
South Carolina shows a per cent. of
u, North Carolina rs, and Georgia "a,
and these are the only States in which
there has been any material deteriora-
ton in condition, while Texas shows
an increase of four per cent.
Upon this condition and acreage the
crop ought not to exceed 1880, 900
bales, and with the increasing demand
of the world for cotton goods, should
bring not less than eleven cents. But

Prohibition Cherokee.

1t would seem that Cherokee county
had real genuine feast of prohibition
at one of the county campaign meet
ings in that county on last Saturday.
The county voted out the dispensary
some time ago, but that did not mean
that the liquor was all voted out, if
we are to Judge the situation from the
account given in the News and Cou-
rier. Pistols, knives and big rough
fists were drawn and general fight,
was precipitated. No one was hurt.
The fault seems to have been liquor;
liquor passed freely around, mean
liquor, handled by meaner men. Pro-
hibition didn't seem to prohibit there!

Good Impression.


Good Impression.
Camp Chickamauga, Ca, Aug. 49,
Today has been South Carolina day
at Chickamauga. 1t has likewise been
one of the most strenuous days of the
week. The morning was spent in the
manoeuvers of the tactical problem,
the afternoon in the grand review of
all troops and tonight the South Caro-
lima and Georgia troops leave for their
homes.
Gov. Hayward and his staff arrived
at Lytle this afternoon and were met
at the station by Col. Thompson and
squadron of calvary from the regu-
lar army as an escort. They drove
into the main street of the camp amid
the thunder of II guns salute by the
artillery corps and three rousing
cheers by the men of the Second regi-
ment.
The grand review of all the troops
in camp was held by Gen. Bubb, in
which Gov. Hayward participated.
1t was the first parade of any kind
that has been indulged in during the
stay of the Carolina regiment. It was
a brilliant climax to the week, and all
the South Carolina visitors who were
here we're pleased at the honors re-
ceived by the representatives of the
State and by the fine impression made
by Col. Thompson and his regiment.
At ten O'Clock tonight the camp
was deserted and the entire Second
was assembled at the station at Lytle
awaiting the departure of their train.
The First regiment, under command
of Col. Lewis, is expected to arrive
tommorroW morning.

LYNCHER GETS
FIFTEEN YEARS.
George Hall Convicted in Twenty
Minutes of Conspiracy.

Charlotte, N. G. Aug. 10.-George
Hall, cotton mill operative, was to-
night convicted of conspiracy in con-
nection with the lynching Of the three
negroes at Salisbury Monday last and
given term of Is years in the State
penitentiary.
The hearing of the case began when
court opened at 1O:30 this morning.
At 6:15 p. NJ, after hearing several
witnesses establishing Halps partici-
patton in the lynching the case was
given to the jury. After being out 20
minutes, verdict of guilty was agreed
upon and the maximum penalty for
the offense charged was imposed by
Judge B. F. Long. Court adjourned
for the day at 7:10 p. m.
This is said to be the first conviction
of the kind ever secured in this State,
although a number of efforts have been
made to bring members of mobs to JUS
tice.
The State sprang surprise in the
trial today when the offens against
the prisoner was changed from murder
to conspiracy.
When the court was called to order
Hon. T. J. Kluttz announced that his
client would contend that the court
was unlawful. It was argued that
the governor could not sign commits
sion for such court unless he was IN
the State, and it was claimed that he
was at Atlantic City, N. J. Mr.. Kluttz
asked that a subpoena be issued for
Gov. Glenn, and have him brought to
court to testify. This was done and
the chief executive of the State was
sworn and questioned about his where
abouts on the 18th of July, the day
that the call for the court was made.
He said that he was in Atlantic City,
n. j., but in order to do what he could
to prevent a lynching, he wired his
private secretary to issue the COM
mission and sign his name it. This
he considered the proper thing to do.
The objection of the defendant was
overruled and the trial proceeded.
The first witness was David W. Julian,
a deputy sheriff, who testified that he
saw Hall leading a mob of about 80
men, some of whom the witness knew.
The officer had in custody a man he
had arrested at the Jail. Hall, said
the witness, carried a hammer and
threatened to brain him if he did not
iberate the prisoner, Mr.. Kluttz OBJ
jected to this testimony in it's entirety.
Other testimony was offered in the
afternoon and the case speedily given
to the jury.
