CORN NEARLY GONE.
Prolific Variety From Florence
COul. Y in Demand.


There is sack of corn-or
rather, there was a sack of
corn-in the bureau of the
Florence chamber of commence
in room No. 5 in the Arcade
building. This corn is of the
prolific variety and the yield on
the acre from which it came
was 1877 1-2 bushels on land
cultivated by Halle Meeks, one
of the corn club boys in Flor
ence county. The Florence bu-
reau has been visited by farm
ers from all parts of the nation,
and when these were told of
the yield each wanted a few
grains to plant. The sack has
dwindled to less than one-half
bushel, the samples going to 80
different states and two sam
Piles to Canada. Next summer
two farmers in far off Saskat-
chewan, a number in Texas, two
in South Dakota and two or
more in a number of other
states will make experiments

LYNCHED IN YARD
OF COURT HOUSE
Negro Burned to Death at
Houston, MiSs-SecOnd Crime
in Two Days.

Houston, Miss, Feb. s.
Whiel a court stenographer took
his testimony, Divil Rucker, a
negro, 20 years old, today in
the presence of LOO 0persons
confessed to the murder of a
white woman, was condemned
to death, and, while the sheriff
and his deputies looked on,
powerless to act, was chained to
a steel pump in the court house
yard, oil soaked wood was piled
about him, the match was ap-
piled and the body was inciner-
ated. A member of the mob
fierd four shots into Fuckers
body before he died. His ashes
were gathered up and carted
away and the crowd dispersed.
The lynching was the second
in two days and followed the
killing of Mrs. j. G. Williams,
who was dubbed to death here
at her home in the day time
Thursday, her body being
thrown into a pit under the
houes after it had been striped
of a diamond ring and other
iewelry. Andrew Williams, a
negro, was first arrested charg-
ed with the crime. He was
taken from Jail by a mob and
hanged Friday. The same
night Rucker, an employe of
Mrs. Williams father, was tax
en- into custody and was hidden
in a dwelling by the $ heriT.
Early today the mob ferreted
out the hiding place, took the
negro from the officers, who
were placed under guard, and
determined TO give Rucker a
public trial without official in
tereference. He was led down
the street to a convenient open
spot, the court s, lographer
was summoned ~ ! an opportu-
nifty was given the negro ii tell
his story. He was quizzed for
two hours. He declared the
negro previously lynched was
guiltless. He told in detail of
entering the dwelling, of asking
Mrs. Williams for money and
being refused, of choking and
beating her to death.
District Attorney Knox ap-
pealed to the throng to forego
its vengeance. The crowd list
ened respectfully but proceed
ed with it's preparation to ex-
ecute the prisoner.

A NEWSPAPERS DUTY

We have read very carefully
the bill introduced in the legis-
lature by Representative Geo.
r. Rembert of Richland, with
reference to the publication of
certain matter by newspapers
and we can find no fault with
the bill. 1t comes as nearly up
to what we try to practice as if
we had written the bill. We
know not the impelling motive
behind the introduction of this
bill, we do not know of any ne
cessity for it among the news
papers that are members of the
State Press Association, for
each and every one of them
should have this for the code
of ethics now.
The bill merely requires a
newspaper to make suitable
reparation when it publishes
anything that Improperly
brings reflections upon per
son. That is what a newspa-
per should do of its own accord.
and what most of them will do
the moment their attention is
called to the error. The code
of a newspaper should be
Treat others as you would be
served Our views may be too
altruistic on this point, but we
believe that a newspaper should
permit any person with a Just
cause to defend himself through
its columns.
The only question is that the
honest, upright, courageous
newspaper is endeavoring to
treat everybody fairly may it
self be imposed upon at times
by designing persons who
claim that they have a Just
grievance when they have not
We believe that the Rembert
bill is good morals. AS to its
necessity we are not advised.
But if it is good for the news
paper, why not for all classes of
humanity? Why not for the
lawyer in the court room who
assails the witnesses and 9th
ers? Why not for the candidate
on the stump, who maliciously
or otherwise attacks those who
differ from him? Why not add
to the bill the following proviso:
Provided, That if any candi-
date for public Office or incum-
bent of a public office shall in
public speech make false state
ments or unwittingly misrep-
reservations he be given the op-
portunity to make reparation
publicly and if he does not do so
is mechanically removed from
public office upon conviction of
said otfense, and must serve
term in jail.
If such a law were in force
and even applied justly to the
past, there would be one news
paper man in jail to 100 politi-
cians.-Anderson Mail.
