At meeting of the State Farmers
Union in, Columbia last week reso-
luton was adopted that a legislative
committee be appointed to watch leg
islation affecting the agricultural in
terests. A better plan would be for
the farmers to elect farmers and
business men to the legislature, and
then there would be no use for such
4 committee. The farmers are in the
majority in South Carolina, and they
can elect whom they please to Office.
II they would send good, substantial
farmers and business men to the leg
islature, instead of so many lawyers,
such a committee would not be need
ed. We hope they will make change
next year. In our opinion there are
too many lawyers in the general as
sembly now "for the good of the SER

sPURNED LOVE COSTS LIVES.
Virginia Farmer Kills Sweetheart
and then Commits Suicide.

Danville, Va, August 2.-As re-
suit of spurned love, Ben Russell, a
farmer about so years old, Of this
county, this afternoon shot and in
stantly killed Mrs. Annie Tankersley,
aged 80 years, and then emptied the
remaining barrels of the shotgun
with which the deed was committed
into his own head.
The double tragedy was enacted
on the farm of Mrs. Tankersley, at
Luck, twenty miles from Chatham.
Mrs. Tankersley has for some time
been living apart from her husband,
whose whereabouts is not known.
Ben Russell was a tenant on the
plantation and was known to have
been violently in love with Mrs. Tan
kersley.
On Wednesday the two had a
quarrel and Mrs. Tankersley ordered
Russell off the place. On Sunday he
went to her house and fired at her
twice with shotgun, both shots be-
ing ineffective. He made another
unsuccessful attempt to- kill her this
morning. The crime was done while
two small children of the slain wo-
man were playing in the house.
Russell has had a checkered ca
reer. Several years ago he was in
love with young woman of the
county and in jealous rage fired at
her. For this crime he served year
in the State prison.

The position of DR.. Howard Jones
who recently preached a sermon al
the Citadel Square Baptist church, ir
Charleston, on the dispensary, has
been somewhat misunderstood. In the
course of his remarks, DR.. Jones
stated that he would vote for the dis
pensary in Charleston and advised his
membership to do so as we'll. But he
is a prohibitionist, and has been max
ing prohibition addresses in other
counties. He will vote for the dispen-
sary in Charleston because he be-
'lieves conditions will be worse in that
city under prohibition than under the
dispensary regime. He says prohtbi-
ton in Charleston will be farce, and
therefore he favors the dispensary
for that city.

Prayerful attention is directed to
the article published in another col
umn as to conditions in the South and
our own State as well. In the article
it is stated that one-third of the ma
tive whites in the South over ten
years of age are unable to read and
write. If this be true, what an aw-
full condition.! We shudder to think
of the future if such is the case. In
South Carolina there are Isl, ,536
children, between the ages of ten and
fourteen, who can neither read nor
write; and one-ffth of our popula-
ton is in the mill districts. One hun
dred thousand people in the State are
not connected with any church. Is it
not time to awake if the picture be
not overdrawn? Brethren, these be
fearful truths, if truths they be. And
yet we inveigh against compulsory
education, and annually send thous-
ands of dollars out of the country for
foreign missions, when it could be sc
we'll spent right at home. Is it not
possible that we are neglecting the
people at our doors in our endeavo1
to better conditions in foreign lands
1t is high time we begun to think Sc.
riously of these things.
