Benson, November 26:-Those OF
the community who attended the

entertained by Hon ] Whitner Reid,
secretary of the South Carolina State

eloquently and earnestly in behalf
of the reorganization of the local

responded not to the suggestion of
the State secretary.

Webb Eddy, colored, was serious

and yesterday at the church, during
services, Webb Eddy and two McEl-
veen brothers left the church a short
distance and became engag1 in a
dispute. Each side has its story;
some say Eddy advanced on the 9th
ers with stick, when all closed in and
in the scufle one of the McElveens
cut his way out. A fourth party
drew an axe and was going to add
the finishing touches" when a
friend relieved him of the weapon.
The injured man was attended by
DR. Pate, and an examination reveal
ed two ugly wounds in the back.
Eddy's assailants were held for safe
keeping, but later released on bond.

Banks to Increase Capital.

The stockholders of the Bank Of
Kingstree met at the bank here Fri
day and unanimously approved the
resolutions adopted by the board Of
directors, providing for an increase
in the banks capita! stock from
$4,000 to 100000. The meeting
was well attended. Already enough
stock of the new issue has been ap-
piled for to run the banks capital
to 100000, if it we're possible under
the law to do so. The new issue
was limited to each subscriber. The
readiness with which this increase of
stock has been subscribed to speaks
well for the financial condition OF
the county and is highly significant
of the excellent financial status of
the institution.
Monday there was a meeting OF
the stockholders of the Bank of Will
liamsburg here for the purpose OF
considering resolutions passed by
the board of directors recommend
ing an increase in the capital stock
of the bank from $4,000 to $780,
600. The meeting was harmonious
in every respect and the stockholders
unanimously approved the recon-
mendation of their directors by vot-
ing for the increased capitalization.
The matter of converting the instl-
tuition from State bank into a
National bank was deferred. This
question will, however, be taken up
at the regular annual meeting OF
the stockholders in January, 1914.

THURSDAY. NOV. 1T. 1913
Emerson and Finley.

Tuesday was day Of disaster in
railroad circles, when the heads of
the two leading arteries OF COM
me.ce in the South crossed the
Great Divide. The death OF Presl-
dent T NJ Emerson, of the Atlantic
Coast Line, ,and President WV Fin
lev, of the Southern Railway, is
more far-reaching than the immed-
late loss to the great railway sys-
TENS with which their efficient SER
vices were identified. The death OF
these men who may truly be called
captains of industry, is sad blow,
not only to the section most benefit
ed by their broad intelligence and
mastery powers of organization, but
to the whole United States, which
furnishes few examples of construc-
tive talent, supplemented by the fine
Judgment, energy and determination
that overrides obstacles in the way OF
success, which marked the life-work
of these master-buiIders.
Just how much their loss will
mean to their respective railway
systems and to the country at large
will depend in a great measure on
the calibre Of the men chosen to take
their places at the front OF forces
of progress and development that
must 90 onward, regardless OF the
lives and personalities OF those who
for a while direct their line OF
march.

If we remember Alright, Mr. Lever
said when he first offered for Con-

and his mother was a Derrick, and
between the two he thought he could

That he was lifted or lifted himself,
there, is palpable fact and we dc
not think his lifting powers have been

A Lexington county jnry gave a

passing locomotive whistle caused
his horse to run away in the plow
and the mans collar bone waslbrok-

allowed to stand the railroads would

Friends like that are worth having,

upon many newspaper men, for
the recipients would probably drop
dead from heart failure. The
Record would be nightly pleased
