Graves of Confederates.

The war department will award
within a. few days the contract for
10000 white marble headstones to mark
the graves of Confederate soldiers and
sailors who died in Federal prisons
and military hospitals in the north
during the civil war and who were
buried near the place Of their confine-
ment This will be the first step to-
ward action by the government to
lott, an officer Of the Confederate
army and formerly representative
from South Carolina, has been ap-
pointed commissioner to take charge
Of the work. The territory in which
the graves are located extends as far
south and west at Santa Fe, n. M,
and as far north and east as Boston,
dispatch.
It will be remembered that it was
the late President Mckinley, who first
suggested the marking of Confederate
graves by the national government
and except for the untimely taking off
Of Mr.. Mckinley, the idea would have
probably been carried out during his
life time.
1t was because Of Mr.. Mckinley s
suggestion that The Enquirer first un-
dertook to get a list of these graves in
York county in 1889. 1t was realized
then that unless something was done
within a few years more the perfec-
ton of the list would be an impossible
task, for probably quite a number of
names have already been lost in OBJ
livion.
The list of Confederate soldiers Of
this county prepared some years ago
under the auspices Of the United Con-
federate veterans, while very valuable,
is not nearly complete, and it is i'm
2ortant that every effort be made to
at least perfect the list Of those that
have been buried.
1t is sincerely hoped therefore that
people generally will take the trouble
to supply as many names as possible
by way Of correcting the list publish
ed in The Enquirer on May 10.

YoRKVILLE, s. c.,
TUESDAY, MAY 81. 1907.

THE whole country is becoming more
or less deeply interested in the Hay
wood trial now in progress in Boise, Ida
Haywood is indicted jointly with Moy-
er and Pettibone for the murder OF ex-
Governor Steunenburg Of Idaho. The
prosecution, of course, is going on
the theory that the crime is one of or
binary murder. The defense, however
takes the ground that the battle is one
between capital and labor, and wheth-
er or not that is the real issue there Is
no question of the fact that both sides
are putting up hundreds Of thousands
of dollars. Boise City is like an arm
ed camp, and everybody prominently
connected with the trial as attorney,
witness or otherwise is being watched
by detectives. Some OF the attorneys
are having themselves guarded by diff
ferent notorious mankillers and the
situation generally is extremely tense.
The idea Of fair trial, Of course, is
absurd, and as to whether it will all
wind up in a bloody reign of terror
remains to be seen.

WHEAT AND OATS.

Inquiry of people from different
parts Of the county develops the in
formation that the small grain crop is
looking unusually well.
Wheat Is generally conceded to be
showing better promise than at this
particular period for several years; but
unfortunately the crop is confined to
small patches, and even these are not
plentiful.
There are as many oats as usual
the fields running in size from two OF
three acres up to fifty and seventy
five acres and generally the crop is
very good. even giving more promise
than wheat
