and one prisoner from the chain
gang who is sick, leaving 13 prisoners
in Jail for trial. In addition to these
Il number Of those charged with crime
are out on bond.
Since the 29th of June there have
been eight homicidcs in the county:
and there are twelve prisoners, eight
principals and four accessories charr-
cd with murder.

HON. E. D. SMITH SPEAKS.
A Large Crowd Hear Him-Deliyers
an Eloquent Appeal to the Far
mers to Organize.

Hon. e. ID. Smith according to ap-
pointment addressed the farmers in
the old court house on Saturday morn
ing at eleven o'clock.
Mr.. Smith devoted his remarks
mainly to the Importance of farmers
organizing and endeavored to show
them how the decline in the price of
Gotten had been great loss to all on
tcrprizes and especially to the far
mcrs of this State. He did not urge
them to hold cotton but be showed
how the price ought to be more than
1t is, and how it could be if the far
mcrs were willing to contribute a
small amount per bale for the purpose
OF Forming an organization through
which they could demand q better
price for their staple product.
The court house was filled and Mr..
Smith was given the very best of at
tcntion and everybody spoke in the
highest terms Of his address.
There is only one solution to the far
mcrS of this section Of the country
and that has been preached so long
and SO often that it has become al
most thrcadbarc. Everybody admits
the iruthfumcss of the position but
very few practice il. So long as the
farmers, Of South Carolina especial
~. undertake to buy everything they
need on the farm instead of growing
II there, they will be al the mercy Of
those who purchase their cotton. The
Farmer who grows on the farm all that
II" needs on the farm. and in this
country he can do that. and then
grows all the cotton he can, will make
some money farming REGARDLESS Of
the price. On the other hand the
Farmer who undertakes 10 buy every
thin" he needs and To pay for il bv
growing cotton will not make any
money il matters little how high the
price OF cotton may be. Another
thing that the farmer ouch, 90 do in
this section is t" grow about twice tn"
amount Of cotton on the same land,
or in other words plant about half the
acreage and make The same amount nr
cotton. This can be- done and at less
expense and with less labor. OryaniZa-
tlnn * all right but organization
alone will not solve the problem.

The Knights Of Pythias IN this
State have decided to raise a mcmor-

well, the proceeds from the fund to be
used for the education Of orphans Of
PythianS The committee has been
most successful and il is certain that
the knights Of Newbcrry will do their
part towards this worthy cause.
Grand Chancellor l.. S. Mattison will
also be present at the meeting on No

there will be one or two candidates
upon whom the second rank will be
conferred.
The members of Newbcrry No. 75
are very anxious that every
Knight Of Pythias in this county who
can pos ,blv do so will attend this
meeting. The members Of Ncwbcrrv

during the evening.
Ii is the general election night and
it is very probable that news Of the

the result.
The grand chancellor expects to
raise at least $4,000 by the meeting
Of the Grand Lodge in Charleston
next May for the Thronwcll Memoir
ial Fund This should be very easy
thing to do and in fact twice that
sum ought to be raised without much
difficulty. The membership Of the
Knights of Pythias in this State now
is something over 10000 and it is a
very easy calculation to see how
small IN amount from each one will
give very large fund.
