CHANGES IN POLITICS.
Gov. Ansel Seems to Have Become
Very Unpopular.

The State says there has been q
marked change during the last 10
days in the outlook for the guberna-
torial campaign. Ten days ago there
had scarcely been heard a whisper OF
opposition to Gov. Ansel. 1t was
quite generally conceded that he
would have no opposition for ceelec-
tion, but there has been change, al
though it is somewhat difficult to
locate the starting point or to nnd
the reason.
There are evidences Of q good deal
of quiet activity on the part OF pro-
hibitionists, and it is quite evident,
too, that the majority Of the general
assembly is "anti-Ansel. Why this
IS true Is not so clear, for majority
stood with him year ago on the
dispensary issue. 1t Is said, however,
that the governor does not consult
members as freely as they like, and
that he takes very few into his conh-
dence. They prefer it to DO other
wise.
But the lack of support on the
mart Of the legislature does not alto
gether explain the sudden change IN
the gubernatorial situation. The TACT
is that a couple of months ago when
it was cumored that Gov. Ansel mlgh'
he a candidate for the United States
senate. he was importuned from many
quarters to remain in the guoerna'
torial chair for another term; lnol'
yiduals and newspapers assumed tna'
reelection was his for the asking.

TANIPERED WITH SWITCH.
a Southern Passenger Train Partly
Derailed at kingsyille.

Train No. II, from Charleston
was wrecked at Kingsville at 9.15
Tuesday night at a switch about 100
wards north OF the Congaree River.
The two passenger coaches were oe-
rallied but none OF the passengers were
hurt beyond a bruise or q good snaA-
ing up.
The trainmen conducted an inves-
tigation and found that the switch
had been tampered with. The engine
and the mail and the express cars
passed over the switch in safety but
the coach for colored passengers
which followed, left the rails ana
car-ie6 the coach for white passen-
gers with it.
The two coaches struck string OF
box cars which were standing on the
siding, turning over two or three OF
them and wgecking the interior OF the
negro coach, which, at the time was
occupied only by one passenger ano
the con6rctor, neither of whom was
hurt. tt. coach for whites was turn
ed partly -er, but was not damaged
The track about a hundred teet
was torn Vi.
After an hour and a quarter the
passengers were put aboard the eA-
oress car and a caboose, and were
carried on to Columbia, reacn1n2
. there at l1.20.

No Cotton Being Held By the Texas
Farmers, Sage e. L. Archer, Of
Spartanburg.
Spartanburls.

The Spartanburg Herald says: E
Z. Archer, president of the County
Cotton Growers Association was ir
the city recently. Mr.. Archer is just
back from Dallas, Texas, where he
attended as a, delegate the big con.
vention Of the Southern Cotton Grow.
ers' Association. When asked by q
representative. Of The Herald con-
corning the convention, Mr.. Archer
said: There were delegates from
every Southern State and they eli
stressed the necessity Of reduction OF
acreage by diversifcation. They also
advocated taking better care OF cot
ton, and giving more thought to the
marketing OF rhe product, rather than
to increase the number OF bales.
LAS a result of my visit to Dallas
I wish to say specially to the farm
ers, that I saw very few patches OF
small grain--no fields. The Texas
Tenant is no better OF that the ten
nant here. E:e is naturally cotton
farmer, and he buys his bread and
meat in town, likewise the corn for
his mule. I saw no barns or corn
cribs and very poor houses.
"All the cotton made by tenants
Is sold as soon as gathered to salts
fy the store account. I saw very
little cotton; none at the gins, none
at the depots. All saw OF the sta
pie was few baleslying on the
ground in fenced lots, which are the
Texas warehouses"
When asked how much cotton the
Texas farmers were holding, MT.
Archer replied:
VIRTUALLY none. There is more
land than anything else in Texas.
There is no help to be expected from
that quarter so far as the holding
movement is concerned. Last year
she planted one million and three
hundred thousand acres more In
cotton than IN l906. Oklahoma
planted 668,O00 more acres in cot
ton in 1907 than in 1906; Georgia
$4,000 more; South Carolina, 14O,-
600 more. Fad not the boil weeVil
and the dry weather ruined the Tex
as crop the1 would have been a
thirty million bale output.
II wish to warn the farmers to
reduce the cotton acreage" said Mr..
Archer. 1T 1t is not done generally
cotton will be sold next fall for eight
cents or less No organization can
make farmer succeed who will not
raise home supplies.
For forty years the farmers have
been submissive slaves for the think
ing man by buying such things as
were not necessary, or things that
he could have made at home. 1t IS
time that the chains Of slavery be
broken, and the only way to break
them is to raise more hog and hon1-
ny"

TRIED TO KILL HIM.
Two Bombs Thrown at the shah's
Automobile, Ia Which
He Was Supposed to be Riding, but,
Fearing Assassination, He Was Rid
ing in a Carriage.

A dispatch from Tehere1, Persia,
says an attempt was made in that
city Friday afternoon to assassinate
the Shah Of Persia by a bomb. His
Majesty was not hurt. Three Of the
outriders. who were accompanying
him at the time were killed.
The Shah owes his escape to the
precautions taken to protect him
from just such an attempt. He was
on his way to nearby town, where
he intended to pass a few days. The
procession had left the palace, and
va traversing narrow street, when
bombs were hurled down as il
III the roof Of house.
One exploded in the air, but the
other struck the ground near the
Shah's Automobile. This missile in
exploding killed the three outriders,
wounded the ehatfeur and a score Of
bystanders and shattered the vehicle
The Shah, however, was not in his
automobile. He had taken the pre-
caution to send the motor car on
ahead and ride himself in a carriage
further In the rear Of the procession.
The motor car was closed one and
it was thought the sovereign was In
side.
AS soon as the Shah heard the e1-
plosion he alighted hurriediy from
his carriage and entered neighbor-
ing house. Here he remained quiet
ly while his attendants sent word for
a detailment OF troops.
The soldiers were hurried to the
scene and formed in front Of the
house where the Shah was. He then
came out, surrounded by big body
guard, and returned to the palace.
The house from which the bombs
were thrown, and the buildings near
by were searched, but no arrests were
made,

BRUTES CONFESS.
The Tojand Negroes TsII OF Foul
Killing in Lexington.
They Make Full Confession Of the
Murder Of Mrs. Paul w. Ellison
Near Columbia.

a dispatch from Columbia says
Ned and Brach ToIand, negroes, age:l
II and 19 years, respectfully, late
Friday afternoon made a full con-
fession Of the murder of MIS-. Paul
w. Ellison. the aged woman who liv-
ed just across the river from Colum-
bia.
Brack, the youngest Of the broth
ers, said that Mrs. Ellison suspected
something as soon as they entered the
house. When they got inside Brack
said he caught the old woman and
held her while his brother knocked
her in the head with an axe.
They put her body in a basket and
Ned struck her TWO more blows. They
then proceeded to rob the hou3e, tax
ing a gun and a number of articles
Of wearing apparel. No money was
found.
These negroes were arrested on
the train going to Newberry the day
after the brutal murder and brought
back Columbia. There was big
crowd {, en- at the train when they
arrived and had it not been for the
presence Of several officers an at
tempt to lynch them would have been
made. The two fends are now in
the penit= :, tiary for safe keeping.
A dispatch from Prosperity says
Ned Toland bears bad reputation,
having been in a number Of scrapes.
About six years ago he broke into
Sligh's store, at Sligh's Station, and
robbed the postofice. He served
sentence in the United States prison
in Atlanta for this crime. He has
been on the chain gang several times
at different places.
Brack was working in the Oil mill
and was enticed away by Ned. They
left Prosperity walking Monday.
Some of the hands in the oil mill
warned Brack that Ned would get
him in trouble Ned's wife had gone
to Columbia on the morning Colum-
bia, Newberry and Laurens train.
