oE. r. SAPocH DEAD.

Mr.. Elijah Ross Sapoch, formerly a
we'll known citizen Of York county,
and for several terms a member of
York county's board of county COM
missioners, died at his home near
Blacksburg, In Cherokee county, last
Friday morning, aged about 65 years.
Mr.. Sapoch became especially well
known throughout York county by
reason of his manly bearing and con-
duct in connection with the efforts of
the state and Federal authorities to
force him to tell what he knew about
a certain raid made by party of Ku-
Klux on the house Of Tom Black, or
Roundtree, in the western part Of the
county on the End Of December, 1870.
The killing of Tom Black, alias
Roundtree, grew out Of the negros
obnoxious conduct as a leader of his
race and on account Of his connection
with the military. The Ku Klux went
to his house in the night time and he
took refuge in the loft; but when the
Ku Klux began firing he replied In
kind. After a number of shots Black,
or Roundtree, jumped down from the
was pierced by half a dozen or more
bullets while he was running.
It was during the attack on the
house, which was occupied by seve-
raj other negroes who were with
Roundtree, that Elijah Ross Sapoch
was shot in the thigh. A few minutes
afterward when Roundtree was shot
down, Abraham Sapoch, younger
brother of Elijah Ross, ran to him and
cut his throat.
These facts, of course did not come
out for years afterward until all dan
ger was over; but because Of the
wound received by Elijah Ross Sa-
pooh, he was easily identified as one
of the participants in the raid, and
was arrested by the Federal troops
and committed to jail on account of
the matter. Colonel Merrill gave Mr..
Sapoch to understand that all that
was wanted Of him was to tell who
the other parties in the raid were.
Merrill told Sapoch II he would tell
he would be released at once, other
wise he would be kept In Jail till he
did tell. Sapoch replied that he would
never tell, even II kept in Jail till he
rotted. and he was held for four years
before he was finally released.
During most Of the time Mr.. Sapoch
was held in jail, especially after the
custody Of the Jail was turned back to
the civil authorities, Sheriff Glenn
gave him the keys and made him jail
er. There was period Of several
years during which no one could get
in or out Of the jail except by the suf-
ferance of Mr.. Sapoch.
Small boys of Yorkville used to de-
light to go down to the Jail and spend
hours with Mr.. Sapoch, and he used
to delight to have them come.
In the early nineties Mr.. Sapoch be-
came a candidate for county commits
sioner Of York county. He was elect
ed overwhelmingly and served two
terms. His service was honest and
efficient.
Mr.. Sapoch was a member Of the
Baptist church and was buried In Mt.
Paran cemetery last Saturday.

WHAT THE RECORD THINKS.

The Rock HILL Record of yesterday
expresses itself on the new court house
and county division proposition, and
talks with good sense as to both. 1t
says: I'VE do not believe there Is
any general desire in York county for
the erection Of a $4,000 court house,
nor do we feel that there Is any press
ing need for building to cost that
large sum of money. Certain 1t Is
that such a proposition would get
mighty few votes in Rock Hill, where
the bonded Indebtedness Is already
very large-so large, indeed. that a
very necessary issue Of bonds for
school purposes was recently voted
down, the taxpayers evidently feeling
that there were enough bonds out
standing upon which interest must be
paid.
THE Record is opposed to any large
bond issue at this time for q new
court house, but would favor an issue
for, say, $25,000J-a sum which we be-
lieve would provide building a thou
sand per cent better than the one now
in use We hardly believe 1t would
be wise to repair or attempt to In
any way remodel or renovate the
present court house, except as a tenn
porary expedient.
1T is beyond dispute that the pres
ent building reflects no credit on
York county; but 1t Is just as true
that the people In York county, out
side of the cities, are gun shy on bond
propositions. II there was any dis
position to vote bonds in any guam
tity, we should say that bonds for
good roads are more vitality neces-
sary to the progress Of this county
than bonds for a new court house.
Good roads would largely help every
person in the county. The benefits to
be derived from a new court house
are not apparent.
so far as the question Of having
q court house in Rock Hill Is concern
ed, we are likewise opposed to that
proposition, even II 1t were possible,
as it Is not. We see no great necessity
for 1t. We are entirely satisfied that
Yorkville should remain the county
seat Of York, and we are sure that no
change will ever be made, certainly
not in our generation"

at a disadvantage. He has had, first,
to find somebody to buy, and after he
has found a purchaser he has. as a
rule, been subject largely to the pleas
ure of that purchaser as to what the
price would be. AS to what the York
Supply company proposes to give for
corn Is not stated, but the price, Of
course, will depend upon various con-
siderations-the quality, no doubt, will
be the first consideration, and quantity,
also, will have to be taken into account.
Now, since the ice has been broken,
this important matter will begin to
regulate itself on a proper basis. The
ordinary laws of supply and demand
as governed by competition will
do the balance, and whether the
York Supply company actually handles
any considerable quantity Of domestic
corn or not II will be deserving of the
thanks of the farmers for having thus
opened up market
