We were surprised to hear while in
the Fork last week that many citizens
in that section think by going to
Richhnd that they will get rid OF
helping to pay for the new steele
bridge, now being made and soon to
be erected across the Saluds river at
Wyse's ferry This is q very ,erron-
.ous idea. It matters not where the
people 20 now, the taxpayers OF the
Fork will surely have to pay their por-
fion of the bill, and they will further
remember; that should they 60 to
Richland, they will have to pay the
indebtedness of that county which mas
never been settled. Think well before
YOU listen to the glowing pictures and
s'boomerangs'' of some Of those 80 en-
Unused, perhaps, for their own "hopes
of reward'' for delivering the goods,
and finally will take back seats, as is
already evidenced by mistakes OF
some Of those disgruntled and unrest
ful individuals. Watch them! Are
they not defeated candidates or ex-
pecting big things in the future?
We were again surprised to hear
some of them say that We don't want
any free bridges. Be that as it may,
the people are certain OF the free
bridge at Wyse's ferry, and the en-
tire county will pay the bill, as they
should.

A CARD.
LIBERTY HILL, s. O.,

LIBERTY d1LL, .. ",
August 10, 1910.
To the Editor of The Dispatch,
Lexington, S. @.
My Dear Sir:
Being farmer, and knowing your
interest in agriculture, am venturing
to write you in behalf of my neig ghbor,
Captain John G.. Richards of Liberty
Hill, Kershaw county, S. O., candi-
date for Governor, and in doing this
I feel that / am writing you in behalf
of all of the people of South Carolina,
for, knowing Captain Richards as do,
I feel that his election would be pro-
motive of the best interests Of the
whole State.
In the race for Governor there are
six (61 candidates-four lawyers; one
insurance agent and one farmer,-
Captain Richards being the farmer.
OF course, I have no criticism to pro-
nounce against any OF the candidates;
some of the others, l believe, would
be acceptable, but I think the election
of Captain Richards would add mo-
mentum to the great impetus given
farming in this State during the last
few years. Captain Richards is a
Trustee of Clemson college, and 1t
was he who caused preference to be
given there to applicants desiring to
take a course in agriculture; and as
such trustee he favored the farmers
Institutes held annually in the State
by scientific agriculturalists from said
college, and in innumerable ways as
such trustee and as a legislator
evinced deep interest in promoting
and making more profitable the bed
rock calling of them all-farming.
He is true friend Of the Confed-
crate soldier and his vote in the legis-
lature has always been for liberal
appropriation for that honored class
of our fellow-citizens.
Captain Richards has served twelve
years in the Legislature, and his
record proves him to be wise and
careful legislator, regarding with
firmness and great discretion, the re-
lations that should exist between the
different vocations. callings and pro-
fessions that compose the citizenship
of the State.
Captain Richards long experience
as a legislator equips him admirably
for the Chief Executive of our State
The candidate that I advocate for
Governor knows what it is to support
and educate a large family on the
farm, and he has done this, and more,
he has made money also.
Besides, Captain Richards is a man
of great firmness, high integrity and
pure ideal. Very truly,
J. W. FLOYD,
... Elk. Adjt. General, S. G.

George Buckley Killed BY
an Assassin.

George Buckley, negro, was snot
from ambush and killed while on his
way hcme Saturday night about half
past eleven or twelve O'Clock. The
killing occurred on Twenty-Mile
creek and in sight OF the home Of the
dead man. "Det," or Jes Taylor,
another negro. is languishing behind
the bars of the Lexington jail, charged
with the crime, having been arrested
few hours afterwards by Deputy
Sheriff Miller.
From the evidence adduced at the
inquest, which was conducted by Cor
oner Clarke Sunday morning, it seems
that "Det" Taylor and Buckley had
had little falling out few weeks
before over the alleged writing of a
letter by the wife of Taylor to Bickley1
Tt was stated by witnesses that Tayloj
had made threats against the life of
Buckley and that these threats had
been conveyed to him.
DR.. E. P. Derrick, who made the
post mortem examination and who at
tended Buckley soon after he was shot,
was an important witness. DR.. Der
rick testified that the deceased, in his
dying declaration, said that "Det''
TAYLOR had shot him.
: Deputy Sheriff Miller perhaps gave
the most damaging evidence against
the accused. The officer had traced
Taylor's whereabouts from the time
he quit work on Saturday up to the
time Of the shooting and until he was
placed under arrest Sunday morning
The officer told of his examination OF
the singie-barrel gun and gave it as
his opinion that it had been recently
fred. The gun was 10 ded with q
shell containing No. shot, the kind
taken from the body Of the dead man.
He told of the many conflicting state
ments made by Taylor, and placed be-
fore tf Q jury the ''yellow" overall:
and shoes Taylor wore on the night o.
the tragedy.
The jury after hearing the evidence
retired and soon ieached a verdict
holding Taylor responsible.
This was one of the most horrible
murders in the annals OF the county
The assassin hid behind a pine tree
and waited for Buckley to approach.
The man who fired the shot was evi.
dently on his knees at the time, thu
knee prints Of the assassin being visi
bic Sunday morning. In order t.
make sure of his aim, the assassin
cleared out the bushes and limbs be.
tween where he was standing and thu
road. The shot was fred at a dis
tance of about - or Is feet, and the
entire load took effect in the abdomen
almost completely disembowelins
the victim.

An enjoyable picnic which celebrated the twenty-fourth anniversary or Scdgwick Woman's Relief corps, No Is, was held on Thursday, when about fifty members of the corps went to Charles H. Browns place at Gales Fer ry for 1he day, having been invited to come there some time ago by MT.

 MT. Brown received his guests with warm hospitality and exerted himself throughout the day to provide for their entertainment. Bathing and games were enjoyed with rambleS also about the well kept grounds. At noon all as- sem'bled for the dinner hour, when the baskets were opened and a fine time enjoyed. On the table were two hand some and delicious apple pies sent by Mrs. Emma E. Downer. the oldest member of the corps, who sent with them a letter which was read ex- pressing her regret that the exhaust ing hot spell had made it impossible for her to attend the picnic. Several of the Relief corps women were ac- companied by their husbands. among was cordially congratulated on getting
 In the afternoon MT. Brown gave a much appreciated lecture on his recent trip to Panama, which he illustrated with drawings. The picnickers re- turned by the o'clock evening train.
