Wild Bullet Struck Infant.

A bullet from a pistol fired by
Guignard Johnson, colored, passed
over an eight acre field through the
walls of his dwelling and entered the
side of his eight months old child
seated in her mothers lap. The
blood from the wound was thrown in
to the face of the woman. The wound
was not regarded as serious Thurs
day night when examined by a ply
sician a few hours after the accident,
which occurred on the plantation of
Luther Martin, four miles from
Brookland.
Johnson was shooting at target
located in a field when the bullet
flew wild and missing the object,
brought about an accident somewhat
of an unusual nature.

WE HOPE THEY WILL.

The legislature has been in ses-
sion now for something more than
a week, and nothing has been ac-
complished.-Bamberg Herald.
This reminds me-" Shortly after
freedom came to the negroes and
their children started to school, the
father of one Of the scholars" said
to his boy the night of his first day,
''Sit down and write me letter:
The child of course told the old man
that he hadn't learned to write yet.
"Ain't learned to write yit!" said
the old man with disgust. Ain t
learned to write yit and been to
school all day! If dat's de best you
kin do you better stay at home
Give the legislature time. If that
body can possibly give the farmers
any relief they will certainly do 1t,
and they are planning things that
promise good results.
But you must give them time
Newberry Observer.
The legislature has our very best
wishes. We trust the legislators will
accomplish something. and we will
certainly give all credit for what
is done. But the fact remains they
cannot legislate any cotton out OF
existence. We are confronted by the
fact that there are about fifteen mil
lion bales in sight and demand for
about six million. Figure it for your
sell. The people must work out
their own salvation.

WAS FRANK IGNORANT:
This is an Important Point to he De-
cided in Next Appeal.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. l9.-Counsel
for Leo NJ. Frank today entered into
the final week of preparations for
the legal contest which is now re-
garded as the only barrier between
the defendant and the gallows, the
motion to set aside the verdict on
the ground that Frank was not in
the court room at the time the YER
dict was rendered. The point will
come up for argument before the
State supreme court next Monday.
The point is peculiar one. Frank s
own lawyers waived his presence in
the courtroom, they agreeing with
the court under the then excited con-
ditions his life might be endangered.
No complaint was made by Frank.
But after other attempts at a new
trial had failed a new set of lawyers
appeared for Frank and entered this
plea. 1t was much commented on
at the time that Rosser and Arnold,
his regular counsel, who had waived
his appearance, did not attempt to
protest their own action. but permit
ted another firm to enter his plea.
1t is stated, that to win this point
Frank must prove that he was ig-
norant of his counsels intent to
waive his appearance and that he
never gave his personal consent.

A European View.

1t is not only on the operations of
war that a veil has descended so that
we do not know what is happening
there. Darkness has descended on
the work of the builders in society,
the men and women who in normal
times endeavor by a thousand ways.
through art, literature, music. science
and politics, to unite humanity with
what is eternally true, beautiful and
good. On these builders, trying al
ways to raise pillars of human
thought to the heavens, the curtain
of darkness has now dropped, and
on the Illuminated stage of the world
only the human animal is doing his
turn. using all physical and material
energies against his kind.
When the Armageddon is ended,
we wonder whether there will be any
civilization in Europe. One thing
appears certain, that after long
continued war of this magnitude, the
leadership of the world will have
passed from the old to the new conti-
nent, and America will be supreme
henceforward in the arts, sciences
and ecopomics over the earlier civili-
cations. This supremacy of hers
was perhaps inevitable, but it is GER
tain that when this war is ended, the
United States will be the dominant
power in the world in almost every
department where human activity is
displayed. The alteration Of its tar
if policy lately was preliminary
athletic exercise of its economic
limbs before attempting the indus
trial conquest of the world. Now,
all these nations, it's industrial rivals,
have weighted themselves with
terrible burden from which genera
tion will not see them released.
Mr.. Wells is writing in the strain
of the prophet about the coming al
terations in the map of Europe. They
are of little Importance compared
with the fact that all the economic en-
ergies, the intellectual powers and as
pirations which made for civilization,
suppressed in Europe, will have made
their home in the new world. The
sun of humanity is going to rise
brilliantly in the west, and Europe
is at the close of its long day, its
royal domination over the fortunes
of the world. There seems nothing
to prevent this except the impossible
event of a sudden cessation of the
European riot and an Immediate re-
turn to the work of civilization
Editor George w. Russell in Irish
Homestead.

ONE WAY OF HELPING.

That the people can help them
selves more than legislative ac-
tion can help them is demonstrated
by the fact that one of the largest
flour milling concerns in the coun-
try has adopted the exclusive use of
cotton bags for all the products of
its mills. This one concern, which
manufactures one of the more popu-
lar brands of -four. formerly used
$500 worth of cotton bags each day.
and S625 worth of bags made of
other materials than cotton. When
it became apparent that this country
would be overloaded with cotton on
account of the war in Europe, the
concern adopted the use of cotton
for manufacturing all their bags. The
result is that the company is now
using something more than double
the quantity of cotton than a few
weeks ago.
At present millions of dollars are
being spent for cotton bagging, made
of jute. America does not produce
any jute. We are paying some for
eign country millions for cotton bag
ging. This bagging could very easily
be made of cotton, and tAis would
mean the consumption of hundreds
of thousands of pounds OF cotton not
now being used.
The people should demand Of the
dealers that all goods that can pos
sibly be wrapped in cotton he put
into cotton packages.
The legislatures of the different
States can. doubtless, help the farmer
in many ways, but the fact remains
that the legislatures, nor congress,
can legislate any cotton out of ex-
istence.

ANXIOUS TO PASS LEVER BILL
President Believes Success of MCve-

Washington, Oct. 19.-President
Wilson is anxious for the house to

houses and said today that he be-
lieyes the success of plans for loans

planters which the president has ap-
proved.
