RQlN Will BE REMOVED.

The body Of Uncle" George Mar
ing, the old Three Cs engineer who
died recently, and who was Inferred IN
the Potter's field at the county home
will not be allowed to remain there
AS the result Of a movement amone
the railroad employees, and a NUMBER
of citizens who esteem 1t privilege
to help, the old mans body will be ia
ken to Blacksburg and laid by the
side of his wife.
The Enquirer has information, that
although no one has made request
to any such effect 1t is fair and prop
per that 1t be made known, that the
railroad boys are in no wise respon-
sible for the fact that Uncle" George
passed his last hours at the county
home. It has been a good many years
since the old man retired from MS
cab and at that time he was well
provided with this worlds goods. he
needed no help. But that was not all.
When he did need help he faiied 10
let the railroad boys know of 1t; put
instead quietly went to the county
home. ,., ,,a-
came known there began the raising
of fund intended to help MAKE tue
old man as comfortable as posslDle'
bnt death came more quickly than
was expected. and it has been decided
TO use the fund for the purpose OF re-
moving the remains to Blackspurg
and putting a headstone over the
grave. On the advice OF physicians,
however. il has been decided that the
removal should not take place until
about the middle of January.
The funds necessary for the remov-
al are practically in hand: but II
more money is available, 1t can be
used in looking after the matter In
still better way than Is now practica.

1t is not worth while to say that the
letter Rev. ]. L. Oates has sent us
from Troy, Tennessee this week Is
wonderfully interesting because ev-
cry reader will at once come to that
conclusion before he has finished its
perusal Mr.. Oates tells of exactly the
things most York county farmers de-
sire to know about and he tells of
those things in a way that is calcu
lated to make the reader feel that he
is going over the ground with the
writer People who wonder where
the fat back comes from are able to
see it in the making, and people in
this section too will naturally indulge
themselves in speculation as to what
could be done with the vast quantities
of stable manure the Tennessee folks
are wasting, and also no doubt they
will wonder why, in the circumstances
Mr.. Oates describes, these people do
not devote their energies to other
lines of farm development. AS we see
it. we are inclined to think that the
people around Troy have pretty near
ly as good a country as ours but we
do not believe that they are doing
as much with it.

Newberry, November 27: An in
jury in the general sessions court
here this morning. charging Thomas
r. Fielder Of Atlanta with bribery.
The charge is that he attempted to
bribe H. H. Evans, in 1905, while
Evans was chairman Of the board Of
directors Of the state dispensary. At
that time Evans was on the board
with John Bell Towill of Batesburg
Towill and Boykin were this morning
sworn as witnesses before the grand
jury. Governor Blease was in court
at the time the indictment was hand
ed out by Solicitor Cooper. The in
dictment follows a warrant sworn
out some months ago by B. Frank
Kelley, then secretary of the dispen-
sary winding-up commission. This
warrant was placed in the hands Of
Sheriff Buford Of this county, who
went to Atlanta for Fielder but was
powerless to arrest him, because Gov
ernor Brown of Georgia refused to
honor the requisition issued by Gov
ernor Blease of South Carolina. The
indictment comes after an investiga-
ton by the winding-up commission.
Judge Gage charged the grand jury
that they should find a true bill if
the testimony before them satisfied
them beyond a reasonable doubt: If
not to find mo bill" In addition to
the former members Of the dispen-
sary board sent before the grand jury,
it is understood that several letters
purporting to have been written by
Fielder to Evans and others were sub
mitted to the jury. The indictment
Is drawn under section 261 of the
criminal code and contains three
counts. In effect. it charges that
Fielder, on or about October 2, 1905,
offered H. H. Evans of Newberry,
then chairman of the state dispen-
in company organized by Fielder, to
influence Evans vote to secure or
ders for liquors from the company so
organized. The first count charges
that on the date named Fielder Of
fered Evans $4,000 of the capital
stock Of this company organized under
the laws of one of the states of the
United States, said state being to the
jurors known. The second count
charges Fielder with Offering Evans
with $250,000 of the preferred stock
of this company, and the third count
charges the offer by Fielder to Evans
of the $250,000 in lawful money of the
United States, being practically a rep
etition of the second count in a diff
ferent form. The famous "T. B."
letter, addressed Dear Hub" which
was some time ago given to the press
by Governor Blease, as a letter writ
ten by Fielder to Evans, bears date
Atlanta. October 2, 1905, and the in
dictment appears to be grounded upon
the matters set out i'm this letter.

While there is much sound wisdom

In a speech at Abbeville the other
day, Senator Smith advised the farm
ers not to use any commercial fertili-
zers at all during 1912. If he had told
them not to plant anything during
1912, we might possibly be able to
figure a possible practicable end that
he was driving at; but if he is to al
low them to plant, we think he should
at least allow them to produce some
thing or other whether they can sell
it at a profit or not.

Beattie's lawyers" strenuously OBJ
jected to his making a confession, the
reason Of course being that 1t neces-
sarily implicated them as attorneys
after the fact, and men of sufficient
shrewdness to make living practic-
ing criminal law know that present
day methods will not live any longer
than shall be necessary for the gener-
al public to comprehend them fully.

the congregation, which was a fairly
large one on Sunday, will be very

Rev. F. M. Satterwhite, was elected.

Anent the Beattie case, it might be
remarked that any one can see how
not only would the lawyers be justi-
fed but it would be their duty to give
their client every advantage to which
he is entitled under the law; but when
these lawyers resort to various flimsy
subterfuges to distort and conceal the
truth, it is difficult to comprehend
why they are not as guilty as acces-
sories after the fact, as their client
was as principal.
