TOWNSVILLE NEWS LETTER.

Jonesville, July 15.-We had good
rains last Friday and Saturday.
Crops are growing fast and looking
well but they are small. Farmers
can't count on July crop of cotton
this year. They will have to depend
on an August crop if they get any.
Our town was made sad last Sat-
urday morning at the news of the
killing of Mr.. Oscar Lancaster at
Union the evening before by a rail-
way train. l don't know anything
about the circumstances of the sad
affair but there in one thing which
IS very evident-that the craze for
fast riding, fast driving, fast flying
and fast sailing are AL paying heavy
tolls, but it seems to have no effect
on the craze. Nearly every day the
news comes that some one or more
are killed by fast transit. 1t is like
the laws of the land they may be
executed strictly and rigidly but they
do not prohibit crime. Some people
contend that sentences and punish
ment for crimes are not severe
enough, but my observation is that
the punishment be it ever so severe
will not stop crime. I can recall men
that have been hung and of late
years lynching has been visited up
on many criminals. but the crime
goes on just the same. Take "Port-
land Ned" for example and see how
