SAVED By Boys HEROISM.
Farmer Almost Fatally Overcome by
Well Gas.

Edgefeld, Aug. 1S.-Some days ago
Mr.. J. S. Williams, prominent plan
ter of the Ropers section of the coun-
ty, made a blast in a well that he
was digging. Later he descended into
the we'll to remove the rock that had
been torn up by the dynamite. After 1
or two buckets had been drawn out,
those who were operating the wind
lass heard heavy breathing and it was
soon discovered that Mr.. Williams had
succumbed to a noxious gas and was
in an almost unconscious condition. To
rescue him became at once the ques-
tion, and naturally there was hesita-
ton as to who would take the risk.
Finally, a negro boy volunteered his
services, and he was lowered to the
bottom and placed a rope around the
body of the then almost prostrated
victim and he was drawn out, and
medical attention was procured and
Mr.. Williams was restored to con-
sciousness and is now on the road to
recovery.
But for the prompt and heroic ac-
ton of the negro boy there is little
doubt but that Mr.. Williams would
have lost his life. The boy tainted as
soon as he was drawn from the well,
but soon recovered. It was a brave
act and the boy deserves even more
than commentator.

Wool and Free List Votes.

III.
During Inc three hours of debate on
= the wool bill, the corridors of the Cap
itol reverberated time and again with
shouts of approval and derision from
the floor. Spirited discussion between
members was frequent
Republican Leader Mann and Rep
resentative Clayton, of Alabama, mad
a wordy encounter, which for mo-
ment had threatening aspect. The
incident was precipitated when the
minority leader objected to the Ala
bama members request to have the
newspaper editorial printed in the
Congressional Record.
That the administration was keenly
watching developments was evidenced
in the presence on the floor OF the
house of Messrs. Wickersham Hitch
cock, Nagel and Stimson, of the presi'
dents cabinet. All Of them kept q
close tally on the roll call until it was
apparent that the Democrats could nor
rally the necessary t7o-thirds major

Speaker Clark was given an oVatio1

address was reached when he said:

will rage with unabated fury until the
close of the polls in November, 1872"
This was the signal for such an out
burst as seldom has been known in
the halls of congress. Again and
again, as he proceeded, the Demo
Gratis applauded, cheered and pounded
the desks until Democratic Leader In
derwood, who occupied the chair fo1
the first time this session, almost de-

Validate Action of
 Former County Judge

A bill introduced by Representative E. J .Kerwin of this county in the House yesterday, validating the act of former County Judge James Gould in issuing warrants under the Act Mo- 4O2, of 1907, for the macadam road south of this city, was passed.
 Judge Gould issued the order while county judge, which called for the payment of about $30,O0O for work done on the road. At the time Coun- ty Clerk John Shelby received the or der he consulted Judge w. D. Jones, then prosecutiong attorney of this district, as to the legality of the or der. Judge Jones expressed the opin- ion that the issue of the warrants would be illegal, since the money was to be paid out of the city taxes for work which was done out of the city The Kerwin bill however would vali date the action of the former county judge.

ties. He declared that ninety per cent of the criminals were negroes and that as the population increases crime naturally increases among them. The expenses of the court are increased annually with the increas- ed population. -
 In discussing the nefarious fee system, Judge Grace said: 'It is serious and mistaken policy on the part of the government to make mans bread and butter dependent on prosecutions. The magistrates and constables of this county go out of their way to pick up every trivial act and arrest unfortunates and fine them for the mere sake of securing lee. In many cases there are no foundation for charges. I know of case that recently came to my atten- ton where man was bulldozed in- to pleading guilty in magistrates court and fined $1 and costs the costs amounting to $27. It was an unfortunate ;negro. A white man for whom he worked paid the fine and took the money out of the negro's salary. It was not much, but 1t was millions to that poor ne- gro. He was nothing but poor, black negro, it is true, that there is no earthly reason why the law should offer such inducements to officials to prey on the ignorant and the weak. could talk to you a week in reciting similar cases. Such cases are a bur den on communities It appears that the magistrates forget that they are sworn to do justice. They seem to figure that if he is acquitted, T don't get fee, if he is convicted, I do.' There ought to be an amendment to the Constitution to remedy this evil. Cities of the first class ought to have some sort of system to guarantee justice to every citizen. no matter if he is white, black, rich or poor. There ought to be absolute fairness in all cases.
 Now as to the prosecuting attor- ney and his deputies, and I mean no reference to the present officials any more than any others. I have always expressed such views and expressed the same views 9 and 30 years ago. long before I ever knew the present officers or even heard of them. The prosecuting attorney and his, assist ants ought not to be given a living on convictions. Spies are employed and untlair methc&t used somhtimes to accomplish them. They bring up very little frivolous matter to get fee. The prosecuting attorney ought to be a jrdicial officer the same as the cir cult judge. The abolition of the fee system would do away with half of the petty appeal cases and unneces- safy and expensive trials in the cir cuit court. which are always at the expense Of the taxpayers"
