Governor of Tennessee Knows
Who SIayers of Rank
in Were.
QUICK PUNISHMENT VOWED.
CONFESSIONS OF PRISONERS
DISCLOSE FACTS CONCERNING
MURDER-AIR OF MYSTERY AT
CAMP MEMO.

Camp Memo Reelfoot Lake. Tenn,
and who put the rope around Rankin's
neck" said Governor Patterson, in
statement, just before his departure
for Union City, where a special grand
jury is investigating the night rider
depredations in this section, which Gull
minated recently In the murder Of Cap
tain Quentin Rankin. The governor,
in his statement, said:
''rhe proof which has thus far de-
veloped is positive as to the guilt Of
some Of the men under arrest and i'm
plicates many others. This will all be
presented to the court at the proper
time, and long step has been taken
to discover and suppress lawlessness
in this region.
Conditions have been extremely
bad. the night riders going from one
lawless act to another until culmin-
alton came with the murder of Captain
Rankin and the attempted murder OF
Colonel Taylor. We know who fired
the shot and who put the rope around
Rankins neck.
THE number of men actually at the
killing was probably not more than
10, while some stood guard and others
held the horses. The whole number
engaged in the undertaking did not ex-
coed thirty-five. The injury will be
further prosecuted and the state will
have ample evidence to convict"
Complete Confession.
1t is learned that Frank Ferriner's
confession was full and complete, that
he says he was with the men who took
Rankin and Taylor to the bank of the
slough, that he told the name Of the
men who pulled the rope, lifting the
mob's victim into the air, and the
name of the man who fired the first
shot into Rankin's body
The confessions of Hogg and Morris
are also said to be complete Hogg,
1t is said, was one of the four men
who guarded the horses near the scene
of the murder. while Morris stood guard
around the house when the leaders
went in after Rankin and Taylor.
An air of mystery pervades Camp
Memo No one knows what the next
important move will be. There is still
q large number of prisoners in the
is being conducted daily, and it is gen.
orally believed that the governor is
getting to the bottom of affairs.

II have cited tariffs which show
this conclusively. A railroad is a
public service corporation. It is the
public's trustee for it's highways, and
1t should be so regulated as not to
discriminate against any industries or
any localities. I have never favored
an indiscriminate reduction in rates
I believe that railroads should be per-
mitted to earn profits, and good pro-
fits. upon actual values, but not upon
watered securities. believe that
service is of more importance thar
rates and my voice has always for
better service, greater efficiency, and
no discrimination.
1.-The government has for some
time been irrigating lands Of the
Western States, and converting them
into fertile fields. South Carolina row
has large areas Of land covered by
water. the drainage of which would
convert them likewise into fertile
fields. Inasmuch as the principles in
both cases are the same, the one in
adding water. the other in taking
away, to effect a like purpose, the
two problems should be joined and
some method found whereby gov ern-
ment aid should be rendered for
drainage. as well as for irrigation.
I'VE need an increase in our white
population and should welcome all
such within our borders, all who are
strong and healthy, not only in body.
but in mind, and do not come to dis
turb our ideals of life and Of govern
ment and our standards .of labor. I
am in favor OF throwing every safe
guard and restriction around immi-
grafton that will prevent the influx of
an undesirable population. While
we should welcome as one of the So
lutions of the negro question the ac-
cession Of q white population it would
not be. in my Judgment, desirable to
do this by bringing in those +, whom

VIII Meet in Columbia.

Columbia, June 16.-Much interest
ID being centered on the meeting OF
the Cotton Seed Crushers' Associa-
ton Of South Carolina. which will
convene in Columbia on June %
ana 20.
For several years the public has
noticed with ever-increasing interest,
the progress made by the cotton seed
oil men. For years and years. up to
about Is years ago, the seed from
the cotton was considered so much
rubbish. except the little that was
used as seed for planting cotton and
fertilizing. Lately the business of
the cotton seed crushers has progress
ed to such an extent that the govern
ment experts are experimenting with
a view of developing cotton that has
less lint and more seed.
At the meeting to be held here this
month, some Of the most important
questions Of the day will be discussed
by men who know the subject. The
matter Of feeding stock, milch cows
and cattle on cotton seed meal and
hulls has attracted much attention in
the last few years and Judge Henry
c. Hammond of Augusta, who has
probably had more experience in this
line than any man in the country.

eight errors by the official scorer, but
the grand stand and bleachers count
ed at least a dozen, not to mention a
few bum plays thrown in for good

up against Chester last week the
score would have been shocking.

game yesterday was really in the sew.

1t really looked like the home team
would win out.
Second baseman wynne, who made
several Of the costly errors yesterday,
really has some excuse. He has q
very bad hand as the result of an in-
jury received in Orangeburg, and IL
not In condition to play ball at all.
The game yesterday was bum, hut
one game does not win or lose the
