JONESVILLE

Jonesville, Oct. 19.-Good weather
prevails over our country and our peo
pie are enjoying good health and pros
perity. We don't see such years as
this often. Crops of all kinds were
good this year and prices of what we
have to sell is very good, so without
radical change the year will close
as one of the best in many years and
yet find some people that are not
satisfied with the condition of things.
Much small grain should be sown
as a top cover for the land if for
nothing else, and then rotate next
year A few farmers in the country
have been doing this and they have
got their lands up to high state of
cultivation. l will mention Mr.. j. L.
Mckinney, near Jonesville, as one of
these who rotates and plants cover
crops and then invite an inspection of
his farms.
There has been a difference in the
price of cotton that / don't just un-
derstand. Maybe some one can ex-
plain. Yesterday cotton was selling at
IL 3-4 cents at Pacolet and only IL Ia
cents at Jonesville. Can't understand
such difference so close together.
| must mention the death of two
more Veterans and friends that have
passed over the river to rest under
the shade of the trees-Uncle Billy
Going and Sam G. Howell-both good
friends of each other and good friends
of mine, good citizens, good neighbors,
good husbands, good fathers and good
all-round men. One of these was
several years my senior, the othe.
about one year older, so | know by
this that my time is not far away to
go In the same way.
Another good man, but not old for
Veteran, succumbed to disease Sat
urday morning-Thomas J. Beten-
baugh-a model man in my estimation.

WHAT CHARLESTON FACES?

The dreadful thing which happened
at the meeting of the city Democratic
executive committee yesterday will
stand against Charleston for many
long day to come to the shame and
humiliation of her people. 1t should
shock and humble especially those of
her citizens who, in their blindness,
have denied to themselves and others
the truth regarding conditions as they
have existed in Charleston this long
time past.
Yet what happened yesterday is
only what has threatened to happen
repeatedly when in the last four years
citizens of this community have had
to assemble for the assertion of their
political rights. Everybody expected
that the county convention last year
would end in wholesale shooting
affray. The tension was stretched to
the uttermost. When the day closed
without bloodshed a great sigh of re-
lief went up. There are hundreds of
men who are profoundly convinced
that but for the presence of the
.nilitia in Charleston last Tuesday
there would have been the most seri-
Gus trouble, in which many citizens
might have lost their lives. That an
affair like that of yesterday could
have happened comes as no surprise,
then. to those people in this commun-
ity who have not shut their eyes to
the facts. 1t shocks and appals them
yet bad as it is-and on every ac-
count it is to be deplored without
measure-it is not so terrible as many
have feared would be the end of the
reign Of strife and discord and vic.
lence to which Charleston has been
subjected. Let us hope that it marks
the worst.
The News and Courier does not
want to say anything this morning
which might add at time of strain
and excitement to the infammability
of the situation. To do so could do
no good and it is it's duty as it is
that of every good citizen of Charles
ton to try and promote the peace.
The facts speak for themselves. The
record as it stands constitutes it's own
that record that the people of Charles
that record that the people of Charles
election of Maj. Hyde-and this news
paper has no doubt in the world that
he was the honest choice of a ma
iority Of the voters in Tuesdays cleo
tion-was above everything else a
protest against state of affairs which
made possible and invited such an
event as that of yesterday.
1t is right that Charlestonians
should writhe under the modification
and disgrace of what has occurred. 1t
is imperative that they go forward to
the mending of the conditions. with
which they are confronted. Failure
to do so must mean irretrievabl.
damage and moral degradation. The
community must awake to the perils
which threaten it. There can be no
doubt of how it will meet them.-News
and Courier.

control child between the age ot
eight and sixteen years both in

child t o regularly attend some
public or private lay schoo
for the entire term during which
the public school in the district ir
which he resides is in session unit
such child shall have completed the
first six grades of the regular
common school course, provided,
that the district board may, after
such child has completed the sixth
grade, decrease the required term
of attendance to not less than six.
teen continuous weeks in each year
until such child has completed the
seventh and eighth grades of the
regular common school course. or
has reached the age of 16 years.
For every neglect of such duty
the person offending shall be fined
for the use of the public schools OF
his CORPORATION. sum of not less
than $40 nor more than 500 and
shall stand committed until such
fine and costs of suit are paid.
But if the person 80 neglecting
shall show to the board of educa
ton or the district school board,
as the case may be, or to the court,
that instruction has otherwise been
given by competant person for a
like period of time to such child
in the branches commonly taught
in the public schools; that such
child has already acquired the
branches Of learning taught IN the
public schools; or that his physical
or mental condition as declared BY
a competant physician is such as
to render such attendance unsafe
or impracticable; or, if in the
opinion of the court or judge such
compulsory attendance would i'm
pose conditions which would not
be humane. then such penalty shall
not be incurred. Such fine shall
be paid when collected 10 the

prices as q basis the net
return per acre from the hogs
was $41.44. At the average yield
of alfalfa hay per acre this means

Light More Beneficial Than Heat.

This arrest of the light rays produces radiant heat. which has a higher penetrating power than convection heat as gene rated by hot water bag or poultice, for instance.
