THIS MAN WANTS
BRUNETTE FOR WIFE.

New York, Aug. 21.-Alfred r.
Risse. a Wall Street broker, Of Mexi-
can birth, German education and
American residence, started today on
four weeks tour of Europe In
search of a wife.
Risse says English conservatism,
French vivacity, Vienese nerve and
Italian fervor share alike in his ad-
miration. The young woman who
most nearly combines all four at
tributes and is willing, will become
his bride. His only stipulation is that
she must be of good moral character
and a brunette, because you can't al
ways make ort these blondes without
a chemical analysis"

BY rain and Wind
Wingate Farmers Will Turn Their
Attention To Truck Growing
Next Year.
Special to The Netos.

Wingate, Miss, Aug. 21.-The boil
weevil is working its ravages in this
section and the farmers are becom-
ing very. much alarmed over the situa-
ton. Not more than one-fourth of a
crop is expected if that much. The
cotton is also being greatly damaged
by the excessive rains recently, caus-
ing it to shed it's fruit badly. The
farmers are becoming awakened to
the fact that they will be compelled to
quit growing cotton and are there
fore turning their attention to truck
growing by organizing a truck grow
ers' association. 1t is expected that
next year truck farms will take the
place of the cotton fields as a money
crop for the farmer. The corn crop
was greatly damaged by the early
drought this season.

whites are seeking the slayer of Mar
shall Newberry, but the negro preachei
apparently has escaped.
The negroes are fleeing TO other
places. 1t is predicted there will not
be negro left in this section of Geor-
gia in a week.
The whites allege that the murder
of Marshal Newberry was decreed at d
negro lodge meeting and that the Rev
Jim West, a negro leader, was APP
pointed to carry out the decree.
A large shipment of whiskey was re-
ceived at Jakin today and the crowd
has begun to drink heavily and brand
ish revolvers in each others faces
The more peaceable of the whites
have been doing all in their power 10
end the battle and let the law take a
hand. This has enraged the more vic
ious element of the mob and it is now
feared that the lives of the conserva'
tive whites are endangered.
All business at Jakin is at a stand
still, stores being closed and the
whites remaining in their homes.
The Sheriff of Early county is on
the ground, but seems to be unable TO
control the situation. Sheriff Emanuel
of Decatur county passed through
here this evening on his way to lend
assistance.
The Flowers Lumber company has
been forced to shut down its sawmill
because not enough negroes are on
hand to do the work. Turpentine in
terests are at a standstill from the
same cause.
So far no appeal has been made tc
the governor for troops, but people
here say unless troops are ordered out
there is no telling where the trouble
will end.

In reference to the false rumors

make a statement DR.. Turner said
in his letter since the first primary
election that he had learned from the
Board of Supervisors that they have
been compelled to pay out many, many

was not physician. Ask any member
of the Board of Supervisors the facts

WANTED $40
FOR HIS VOTE
Lincoln County Man Was Modest In
His Demand Upon One
Candidate.

Brookhaven, Miss, Aug. 2l.-For
the past eight weeks in Lincoln coun-
ty there have been numerous reports
from many sources of the unlawful
use of whiskey and money in the prl-
mary. All efforts have proven futile
though, up to today to get bona tide
evidence against either the bride
givers or takers. That all these ru-
mors and reports have some good
ground for belief on one side at least.
is attested to by the fact that prac-
tically every candidate interviewed at
various times has acknowledged when
questioned that he had been approach
ed by hundreds of voters, as some of
them put it, wanting money to carry
their boxes or a certain number of
votes for the candidates he was solicit
ing from, the amounts running from
IS on up for the services rendered
seeming to lose all interest In the
prospect when the nothing doing
sign was hung out.
Various yelled insinuations have
also been published from time to time
in the semi-weekly Leader of this
place, both by its editors and CORE
spondents from different parts of the
county which at divers times have ere
ated great deal Of comment.
The first absolute proof of the un-
lawful state of affairs existing which
has been given to the public came this
afternoon from Acting Sheriff Estus
G. Smith, who was appointed to fill the
office made vacant by defaulting
Sheriff ]. F. Greer, February /, and
who is now candidate for sheriff in
the run-off primary, his opponent be-
ing T. H. Montgomery. Mr.. Smith ha,

uency and stated, when he gave tn,
open and acknowledged avowal which
he had received through the postofflc,
that he did not do 1t from a politicaa
