to Have q Monument.

Lafayette, Ga.-Brought to his knees
by mortal wound, Sheriff John Carlock,
while in that position, continued his pis-
toll due, with two brothers named Hen

to the mine today to serve warrants on
them for some trivial offense.
When the brothers learned of the sher-
ifs mission they opened fire on him
and he fell to his knees in dying condi-
ton. While in that position the sheriff
drew his revolver and opened fire on the
brothers. John Henderson fell, shot
through the heart, and Charles Hender-
son was shot twice and died in a short
while. When assistance came the Hen
derson brothers were dead and Sheriff
Carlock was dying in few feet of the
men he had killed.

SUIT AGAINST NIGHT RIDERS
Man Beaten With Thorn Switches
Wants 100000 Damages

Louisville, Ky.-In the Federal Court
here Tuesday, Henry B. Bennett, for
merly of Dycusburg, Crittenden county,
Ky, but now of Jeffersonville, Ind, filed
suit for 100000 damages against sixty
seven alleged night riders or sympathiz.
ers for assault on him at Dycusburg last
February.
The petition differs materially from
suits filed at Paducah by the Hallowells
some time ago, in that not only those
who are alleged to have been in the night
riders raid, but also those who are
charged with being members of the night
riders band, are named as co-conspira-
tors.
Bennett was the owner of tobacco
warehouses and a distillery at Dycus-
burg, which were burned while he was
tied to a tree and brutally beaten with
thorn switches.

GiNNERS WILL JOIN IN FIGHT
For Higher Prices for Cotton and
Suppression Of Night Riders.

Atlanta, Ga.-President j. A. Taylor,
of the National Ginners' Association,
has sent, out circular to the members
OF the association urging them to attend
the cotton conference to be held in Mem
phis November 10, II and II, 1908. In
his circular Mr.. Taylor says:
while reports indicate heavy ginning
up to the 18th, it is so far below the big
crop of 1904 as to put to flight all re-
ports of bumper crop"
He advises holding for higher prices,
and says trade conditions are improving,
and by the first of the new year things
will be back to normal
Speaking of the cotton conference, Mr..
Taylor says: "On November 10, IL and
IL, 1908, there will be great cotton
conference in Memphis, Tenn, composed
of planters, ginners, bankers and mer-
chants from all over the country. This
meeting is for the purpose of taking
some steps to get better prices for the
balance of our cotton and to take some
measure to stop the posting of gins by
so-called night riders. l urge that you
all attend this meeting, as it is very inn
portant that something be done at once
or this movement may get to be as bad
as it has been in Western Kentucky and
the tobacco section.
Very low rates will be on during this
meeting, and you all can afford to attend
and get as many of your customers to 90
as possible, as it means higher prices
for cotton"
