RAISED RATES HIT FARMER.
7 -ey Will Mean Money Loss to Him
on Live Stock Shipments.

Heavy shippers of Omaha are
determined to resist the attempt of
re railroads TO raise the rates on
%ammodities between Omaha and
chicago. They do not propose to
.tand for an increase at this time
without a fight.
The live stock rates have been ad-
Justed so that Omaha has the same
late TO the east as all other Missouri
river cities, but this will not relieve
;le situation if the railroads persist
int tEeir efforts to increase the dress
"a meat rates. The claim is made
TIE Missouri river markets will be
G#stroyed if the increase is put into
cities as announced by the railroads.
Ii will force the western tarmer to
send their stock to eastern buyers,
where they will be compelld to ae-
Cpl what the eastern buyers offer.
With the rate on dressed meats
raisel. this market is still discrim-
mated against, for the farmers will
b. compelled to ship OH east. This
forces them to accept a s|hrinkage
which taps their pocket books. II
the animals are shipped to Omaha,
Kansas city or Sioux City, they are
delivered i'm better condition than
is possible after the additional 500
Ia#le maui to Chicogo.
When a shipment is made to Ghiea-
-a the Nebraska farmer is forced to
take these losses:
From SIS 10 So in extra freight
eaarees to eastern markets ON each
car of live stock.
From s. to so per car because of
s~hrinkage and sometimes more be
cause of the loss of live animals.
About s. to Sc extra for feed.
Three days time accompanying
saipment to eastern markets.
Decrease in price sure to follow
The destruction of competition Of
such "A market as is afforded by
Omaha.
Nebraska has been working for
over twenty-five years to create a
near" market at South Omaha for
the Nebraska live stock. No one
will deny this market has been a
great boon to the state. This is
shown in the statement that 5,45S-
20 head of live stock were sold at
south Omaha last year. Not a ear
of this would have been sold in So.
Omaha if the farmer and stock grow
er could have received nor for his

DESTRUCTIVE HAIL STORM.

Unusual quantities of hail fell
throughout York county last Sunday
and did considerable damage to crops
in different localities, especially in the
western and southwestern sections.
There was heavy hail in the vicin-
ity Of both Rock Hill and Fort Mill,
and considerable damage was done on
the plantations of Mr.. Horace Brown
and others. Information from Fort
Mill does not indicate much destruc-
ton.
The storm was particularly heavy in
the Piedmont Springs neighborhood,
exteh ling down past Hickory Grove
into BIllock's Creek township.
Crops of Messrs. w. Meek Faulkner
and Frank Faulkner in the Piedmont
Springs neighborhood were damaged,
and also several farms between them
and Hickory Grove. Mr.. J. r. Mitchell,
a mile and a half east of Hickory
Grove, suffered severely and also

The hail seems to have fallen in dips
of quarter of a mile wide and mile
or 80 in length, leaving many farms
along the general route unhurt.

FORECASTS BY r. F. D.

If q bill introduced in congress by
Repl esentatiNe McHenry, of Pennsyl-
vania, becomes a law the seven rural
delivery carriers leaving Yorkville
every morning will display the wealth
er signals on their wagons forecasting
the weather for the next twenty-four
hours.
According to the bill the carriers
are to carry flag signals similar to the
where in the populous centres for the
guidance of those interested in the
weather.
In his bill the Pennsylvania pro-
vides that "the rural deliVeryman
shall carry a flag signal of convenient
and suitable size, to be determined by
the fourth assistant postmaster gen.
eral, indicating the weather predic-
tions as reported by the United States
weather bureau for the period in ad-
vance of the current trip" 1t is pro-
vjded, however, that the report of the
period shall have been received in
sufficient time so as not to retard the
departure of the mail on schedule
time.
1t will be necessary, under the plan
proposed for the weather bureau to
telegraph the weather prediction each
morning to each postoffice in the coun-
try which sends out rural mail deliv-
erymen. The mail man thereupon
fixes TO his wagon the flag indicating
the expected state of the weather, and
as he rides by, the farmers and others
along his route can know with wealth
er bureau certainty what the weather
will be for the next twenty-four
hours.
The bill has been referred to the
committee on agriculture.

QUESTION OF RIGHT OF WAY.

Under the advertisements OF the va
rious state colleges, the examinations
for entrance and scholarships will be
held in the York court house on Fri
day, July 1st.
For a number of years past the state
political campaign meetings for York
county, have been held in the court
house and as the campaign date for
this county is Friday, July 1st, one or
the other of the two affairs must find
some other place than the court house
for its purposes.
Superintendent McMackin, when his
attention was called to the conflict Of
dates, said: We'll, l don't know how
it will be managed. You know the
county board of education only holds
these examinations for the various in
stitutions through courtesy. There is
no provision for any pay, nor is there
any provision made for the renting Of
a room in which to hold the eXamina-
ton, and as this examination has been
advertised to be held in the court
house by the various colleges, / sup
pose it will be necessary to make other
arrangements for the campaign meet
ing"
Entrance and scholarship eXamina-
tions will be held for the following in
stitutions: Winthrop college, Glenn
son college, University of South Caro-
lima, College of Charleston and the
Citadel academy.

Cedar Springs.

OF course all the editors of South
Carolina were aware that there was a
highly efficient institution for the deaf.
dumb and blind at Cedar Springs in
Spartanburg county; but very few of
them knew of the extent and import
ance of this institution, until the Oc
casion of the visit of the Press asso-
citation last week.
1t is fair to say, however, that such
lack of knowledge of this institution
as may have prevailed is not altogeth-
er ineXcusable, for from the peculiar
nature of the case, the only practicable
way of getting anything like cor
rect idea of a place like this is to go
and see il. The deaf, dumb and blind
are the exception rather than the rule,
and people who are so fortunate as to
be possessed of all the senses do not
come in contact with them often
enough or intimately enough to ac-
quire the fullest sympathy; but after
one has seen a big collection of these
people-we would say "unfortunates,"
if we were quite sure that would be
correct-and gathered an idea of what
can be done with and for them, he is
likely to be impressed in a way that he
will not soon forget.
Cedar Springs had it's origin in la
Dor of love, commenced by the late Rev.
n. p. Walker in 1S49. Mr.. Walker was
moved by sympathy for certain deaf
children and began to give them all his
time, until he had as many as eight.
Later in 1855, he began To receive the
deaf and the blind, and in 1857, the
state of South Carolina acquired the
property by purchase, and commenced
making such annual appropriations as
appeared To he necessary. Rev. Mr.
Walker died in 1861, and following the
war and reconstruction, the school
went through various viCissitudes, un-
til 1876, since which time it has been
under the successful superintcndency
of Mr. y. =. Walker, who is now in
charge.
in his address To tn" editors the 9TH
er day, Superintendent Walker made

THE DEATH ROLL,

Miss Estelle Youngblood. died at the
home of her father, Mr.. r. B. Young
blood, about five miles northeast Of
Yorkville this morning. She had been
i'll for quite a while during which the

cided, however, that pellagra was the
trouble. Miss Youngblod was 33 years
of age.
Mr.. S. r. Hanna. died at the home of

THE Washington Post, recording the
fact that spring chickens that once
could be bought in village markets in
the Ohio valley for so cents a dozen,
now sell for 80 cents apiece, says that
this is the result of thriftlessness on
the part of the farmer who raises
chickens and extravaganza on the part
of the consumer who eats chickens"
This paper like a good many others,
is talking without thinking. There
was a time in the Ohio valley when
farmers had to raise chickens for their
consumption or not have them. There
were but few buyers for the reason
that all the neighbors were also chick
en- raisers. Of course, there was a
surplus of chickens and the price for
that surplus was what the other fell
low might be willing to give. The
farmers raise more chickens now than
they ever did; but there are more con-
sumers with more ability to pay. This
is the reason of the better price for
the surplus.

BASEBALL NOTES.

There will be three games of ball on
the local grounds this week-tomor-
row, Thursday and Friday, between
the locals and Fort Mill. The Fort
Mill team is a strong one and as the
Yorkville team has been materially
good games are assured.
A decidedly poor game Of baseball
was played on the Graded school
grounds Saturday afternoon, when the
Yorkville team played against the
York Cotton Mill team. The score was
81 to Z in favor of Yorkville.
About thirty baseball lovers met in
the court house Friday night for the
purpose of making arrangements to
insure local baseball. Messrs. w. S.
Neil, E. w. Long and J. Harvey With
erspoon were chosen as directors for
the season. Subscription papers were
prepared and are being circulated ask
ing for donations for the support of the
team. Up to this morning nearly $175
had been subscribed. 1t is proposed
that at least two games week will be
played by the Yorkville team during
July and August.

- Columbia, June 1S: Col. w. I:
Brock, assistant adjutant general OF
South Carolina and candidate for the
position of adjutant general in the ap-
preaching primary is absolved of the
charge of wasting the states money
with criminal intent, but the court or
inquiry which made its report at eleV-
en- o'clock last night finds that there
were some things for which Col.
Brock was to blame and some things
which a lack of system in the office
of the adjutant and inspector general
made possible. The court says In It's
report, "if the charge is intended to
imply criminal intent the court holds
and finds that the evidence falls to
disclose any criminal intent on the
part of Col Brock, but that he was
unfortunately ignorant of the respon-
sibility of the high trust reposed In
him and careless and extravagant In
his administration of that trust Con-
demning the system of accounting In
vogue i'm connection with the turning
i'm of expense accounts the court says,
This system of accounting the court
condemns i'm no uncertain terms, for
the reason that whether so intended
or not it is rendering false accounts.
1t affords no correct information TO
the officer whose duty Is to scrutiniZe
the accounts. 1t offers no protection
to the person whose accounts are to

such q system is allowed to obtain in

not charge Col. Brock with petit

cal charges" In this connection the
court says in part. I'VE find as a mat

the situation, Col. Brock reported it |
correctly to General Boyd, and this
court is of the opinion that there Is |
no foundation in fact for the charges
made against Colonel Brock by Cen

of fact that there is no fact upon |
which to charge against Col Brock |
that he proved a traitor to General
