THE MURRAY REQUIsITION.
Special Agent j. HI. Grady Retnrms
From Illinois without George vi.
Murray, Governor OF That State
Having Postponed Action for 30
Days.

Mr.. ]. H. Grady. who was sent to
Springfield. ILL.,. by Gov. Ansel as a
special agent Of the State of South
Carolina bearing acquisitions on the
Governor Of Illinois for the extradi.
ton Of George w. Murray, has re-
turned without his prisoner. The
Governor of Illinois refused to honor
the requisitiOn on the perjury charge
on which Murray has not been tried,
and postponed action for thirty days
on the requisition on the forgery
charge, on which Murray was tried
convicted and sentenced to sCrve
three years in the penitentiary. This
postponement was granted on petition
Of Murray's attorneys. former U. S.
Senator w. E. Mason and his SON
who asked for time in which to make
a fuller showing and to preselt Pc
titions from citizens of Sumter cour
ty and other sections of South Caro-
lima, who are opposed to the extrad;-
tion of Murray. Within the thirty
days this petition will be presented to
Gov. Ansel with the request that Muir
ray be pardoned and the case ended
Mr.. Grady says there has been quite
furOr worked up in some circles in
Chicago and vicinity over the Murray
case and many preachers are interest
ing themselves very actively in Muir.
rays behalf, a large delegation hay
ing called on the Governor to protest
against his hOnoring the requisition
of Gov Ansel. The sentiment in
Murray's favor has been fOstered on
the allegation that he is the victim
of persecution on account OF racial
and political prejudice. Mr. Grady
says that he was told that 100000
would be raised in Chicago. if that
amount is needed, to fight the extra
dition of Murray. There is no doubt
that Murray will not be brought back
to South Carolina without hard
fight But the Governor of Illinois
did not hesitate to say that he would
honor the requisition in the forgery
case, as it Is an irOn-clad case.
Pending the hearing which has
been postponed for thirty days. Muir
ray was released on his personal rec
ognizance. without bail. by the order
Of the Governor Of Illinois.

that really belongs to the farmer. At

why Is II that when cotton leaves the

explanation.

SIX PER CENT MONEY.
Sumter Savings Bank Offers CheaI
Money on Cotton Warehouse Ger.
tiffCates.

The Sumter Savings Bank makes
an announcement today that markS-a
decided step in advance in the bank
ing business and that will be hailed
with satisfaction by farmers who
store cotton in the warehouse for the
purpose of borrowing money and
holding for higher prices. When a
farmer can obtain money at per
cent on his stored cotton he is in a
better position to hold for prospec-
tive advance in price than when he
has to pay per cent. The Sumter
Savings Bank has taken the lead in
providing cheap money for ita GUS
toners and they will doubtless appre-
ciate 1t.

Put More Bagglng OH Your COTTON.

Again we would urge our cotton
growers to put on bagging and ties 90
the full 6 per cent limit this season.
II you put on less than 6 per cent
.hat Is to say 80 pounds on 800
pound bale. 26 OH 450-pound bale,
etc.,-it Is simply a matter Of giving
tn" cotton buyer good cotton worth
IL 1-2 cents a pound when he is pay
Ing you only for bagging and ties
averaging about 3 1-2 cents a pound.
This Ia a matter our farmers have
been entirely too slow to understand.
The gist of the whole matter is sim
ply this The price of cotton Is fixed
by manufacturers who buy on a basis
of s per cent deduction for bagging
and ties. That is to say, they figure
on 80 pounds tare for each 500
pound bale; and on each 5OO-pound
bale. therefore, they allow a price for
the gross bale sufficient to pay for
only 470 pounds net of lint cotton.
In other words. the price paii per
pound for the whole 500 pounds Is
lwered so as to allow for 80 pounds
tare.
NV, the average farmer instead Of
putting 470 pounds Of lint cotton and
80 pounds Of bagging into a 500
pound bale, puts In ATS pounds of
cotton and % pounds of bagging--
thereby putting In extra pounds OF
12 1-2 cent cotton worth 81 instead Of
g pounds OF bagging and ties worth
90 cents.
Moreover. ali the evidence goes tn

the damage to his crop. A great deal
Of cotton on the placeh ad not been
