Cowpeas

In spite OF the long time tnat
cowpeas have been grown in
the territory near the Gulf, the
aid Of this crop TO the soil is not
appreciated as il should be.
The soil must be improved in
most cases before improved
crops can be made. The cowpea
has not been largely grown SO
long further north as it has
south Of the Ohio river; but it
is now receiving more attention
there, and some Of the reports
put out by the experiment sta
tons Of the more northern
states are OF a nature to instruct
Southern farmers, even when an
allowance is made for the differ
ence in the soil and climate.

the Missouri station the follow

FIRST PRESBYTERY.

The spring meeting Of the First
presbytery which was held this week
in the Associate Reformed church Of
Chester, from Monday night at $50
to Tuesday night at 1890, adjourned to
hold its next meeting at Edgmoor on
the last Tuesday in October, Rev. DR..
G. R. Miller, moderator elect.
Although the proceedings were
largely of a routine character, involv-
ing no special problems of unusual
Importance, the members generally
and the ministers especially considered
the meeting a most interesting and
profitable one, and everybody went
away feeling highly encouraged over
the progress Of events In the presby-
terry, both temporarily and spiritually.
Among the most striking features of
the meeting were the full attendance,
the perfect harmony Of the proceed
ings, the large number of theological
students preaching trial sermons, the
patient and interested attention that
all the members gave to the business
in hand, the short experience talks Of
the ministers with reference to their
encouragements and discouragements.
and the delightful manner in which the
Chester Seceders entertained the Wis
itors.
A large portion Of Tuesday. more
than half the day in fact, was devoted
to listening to the trial sermons Of sew
en- ministerial students, three being
candidates for licensure and the other
four preaching in order that the pres
bytery might judge of the progress
they are making. After listening to
the sermons, the presbytery, especially
the ministerial part. gave its attention
to friendly criticisms Of a nature that
seemed to indicate that no matter how
creditable may have been any Of the
efforts, the young men should only
think of further improvement. w. A
Kennedy, r. L. Patrick and r. w
Carson were licensed to preach.
A resolution passed at the previous
meeting of presbytery called for re-
ports from the various ministers as to

THE Abbeville Press and Banner and
the Newberry Herald and News are
Of opinion that it is impossible to run
the subscription list of county news
paper on a cash basis, and both indi-
cate that they have lots OF sub
scription accounts that have been
running for years. In our opinion
both of these contemporaries are mis-
taken. We are unable to understand
Why, II they should see proper, they
would not be able to demand and re-
ceive cash for such excellent papers
as they are making. Their argument
that 1t is unreasonable to decline a
man indefinite credit for so small a
sum as the price Of a subscription does
not strike us as we'll founded. 1t is
true that there are lots Of worthy men
who are unable to spare the necessary
cash at just any moment; but 1t oc-
ours to US that the man who, having
given his promise, is unable to raise
such a sum within thirty, sixty or
ninety days, is not in very great need
IF a newspaper. Not only this, there
is another very serious difficulty in
the way Of the philanthropy suggest
ed by our esteemed contemporaries.
Such generosity cannot be practiced
except in violation Of the rules Of the
postoffice department. The publisher
who continues to send an unpaid sub
scription after the expiration Of the
subscription period, which can in no
case be supposed to be longer than
one year, is in danger of forfeiting his
second class mail privileges, and that
would seem to mean more than even
quite a large number of unpaid sub
scriptions.

Our Confederate Dead.

At very considerable labor on our
part and with the painstaking help OF
Confederate veterans and others in
different localities, we are enabled to
publish today a pretty full list Of the
Confederate dead buried in the ceme-
teries Of York county.
This list is published not only as
to the memorial exercises
being observed throughout the south
today; but also as matter Of present
interest to relatives, friends and ac-
quaintances concerned, and more espe-
cially as against that time in the fu-
ture when 1t will probably be matter
Of every great Importance to know
where our soldiers were buried and
there will be nobody living to give the
1t is proper to say that all Of these
lists have been prepared by careful,
people; but we would not
try to create the impression that any
of them are absolutely complete. In
with our experience Of May,
1899, when the first attempt along
this line was made, we remember that
there were numerous corrections. and
in the list today are many names that
were omitted from the list prepared
then. 1t is quite probable that there
are still others to be added.
Looking to the still further perfec-
ton Of the list we have prepared a
special book in which IL is our purpose
to record all corrections and additions
that may be called to our attention as
the result Of this publication, and per-
sons interested, who may discover in
the list inaccuracies. of any kind, es-
pecially omissions. are requested to
report them as soon as practicable in
order that they may be entered at
once
1t may be several years before this
list is again produced in full but that
it will eventually become an impor-
tant record no one need doubt. Make
it complete.

FRIDAY, MAY 10, 1907.

If asked to account for the recent
murders in Columbia, we would have
no hesitation in attributing them to
lax enforcement of the laws. When
men in high places commit crime, and
those crimes are brought to the at
tention of the law, which sometimes
happens, 1t is frequently the case that
influential friends are able to have
the matter quashed. 1t is difficult to
imagine a more speedy or certain
manner of bringing all law into the
contempt of the presumably, more
vicious classes.

Walhalla special of May 9. to Co.
lumbia State: 1t will be recalled that
some weeks ago there was an unusual
and sensational service at the Wal
halla Methodist church, when it's pas
tor. Rev. ]. c. Younge, made most
humble apologies for certain articles
written derogatory to certain officers
in the Methodist church. On that day
Rev. Coke D. Mann, who Is a resident
here and a member of the house Of
representatives and former pastor Of
Walhalla church, arose and said that
there were evil men in the Methodist
church and If some one did not check
their work the church was going to
the bad in South Carolina. Things had
quieted down; nothing more was
scarcely heard Of the events of that
day. But on Sunday after the pas
tors sermon, Mr.. Mann asked that he
be allowed to make a statement. This
he did in language most scathing and
denunciatory. He narrated briefly the
various efforts he had made to prefer
charges against a presiding elder, and
all without success. He told Of the
manner Of his own trial, where the
presiding elder was the presiding Of
ficer prosecutor and chief witness and
after a trial lasting several hours,
with only the witnesses for the prose-
cution sworn. that he (Mr Mann) was
eXOnerated. He made an unmerciful
attack upon the veracity of the presid-
ing elder, saying that he had as much
confidence in his veracity as he did in
that of Lemerick Gadsden or Christie
pher Williams, two well known negro
characters OF the town. Mr.. Mann said
he was very anxious to prove his
charges and that he stood ready to
fight these alleged falsifiers in the
church at any time, at any place and
in any way they chose to come at him
