memoration and intercourse-such
inspirations of love of country and
of race, which we celebrate to-day,
are examples to the young for the
future, and solace to the old for
nobler deeds of the past.
The troublous days of the past
of which We have been speaking are
only in evidence nowadays, that
we may be able to remedy our past
mistakes, and that we can with
more power and success enforce the
principles we acted upon in our
days of stress and turmoil. Enter.
prise and developments are over
coming the nightmare and sudden
scare which came upon US ia the
early days Of the European struggle,
and we are learning more and more
to trust ourselves, and 60 forward
in all developments with optimism.
''AcKie Meriwether died, but his
spirit survives. to be applied to the
needs of our busy life, and our in
creasing responsibilities.
THE white mans Revolution of
1875 is umbered among the past
epochs of history, but its lessons
and experiences remain to be ap-
piled to the perplexities and hopes
of American life and American am
bition in 1916"
The committee from the legisla-
ture to present the monument on
behalf of South Carolina were
Senators Nicholson, Williams and
Nickles, and Representatives Wiz
liams, Toole and Brigham. Senator
B. E. Nicholson acted as spokes-
man for the legislative committee
and presented the monument to the
city of North Augusta. He, too,
referred to the commendable efforts
of Mr.. j. P. DeLaughter who took
the initiative in honoring the hero
of the Hamburg riot. Mr.. Nichol-
son spoke briefly but eloquently,
appealing to the city officials and
citizens of North Augusta to ac-
cept this tribute in stone as a sa-
cred trust and guard it with jeal-
Gus care.
MIR. James U. Jackson accepted
Tie monument ii behalf efsthe.
mayor and city council of North
Augusta.
This closed the exercises in the
school auditorium, which were rem
dered the more inspiring by pa
triotic choruses by the girls of the
high school and by music by the
orchestra engaged for,the occasion.
The audience repaired to Calhoun
square near by, where the monu-
ment was unveiled in the presence
of large throng who stood with
uncovered heads. The unveiling
committee consisted of Mrs. w.
Fl. McCracken, Mrs. S. NJ. War
mex, Mrs. Jessie Grafton and Miss
Anna K. Butler, near relatives OF
McKie Meriwether.

That the memory of this brave
young son of Edgefeld is thus to
be suitably perpetuated is due to
the lamented J. P. DeLaughter
whose very earnest and impasslon-
ed appeal to the general assembly
oYercame partisan strife and secured
an appropriation by the state which,
supplemented by subscriptions from
individuals, made possible the erec
ton of the handsome monument.
The time fixed for the unveiling
exercises was Wednesday afternoon.
February l6, an appropriate pro-
gram being arranged. The exercises
were held in the large auditorium
of the North Augusta high school
which is ob!iquely across the street
from the monument. The profound
interest which the people took in
the occasion was evidenced by the
large number of persons who as
sembled before the appointed hour,
representing Edeefeld and Aiken
counties, also large number from
Augusta being in attendance.
1t was altogether fitting that Ex-
Gov. John G. Sheppard, one of the
Survivors of Wallace House and
one who in other ways rendered
valuable service in the trying days
of Reconstruction, should be made
chairman of the meeting.
Upon rising to present the orator
of the occasion, Ex.Gov, Sheppard
spoke Interestingly and at some
length of conditions as he saw
them in 1875. He said the legisla-
ture was composed of SO negroes,
ls carpet baggers and IL or Is of
our own people. Members of the
body admitted publicly that they
had been bought. Prior to 1868 the
Judges of South Carolina were
above suspicion, but between 1868
and 1876 justice was bought and
sold in South Carolina. The gov
ernor's home was at that period the
center of vulgarity and vice, and
the people of South Carolina were
required 10 bear it at the point of
the sword drawn by the national
government. In 1872 and again IN
1874 a. white man ran for governor
and negro for lieutenant govern
or. Mr.. Sheppard stated that the
white people of South Carolina re-
solved in 1875 that they would re-
gain the government or there should
be no government in South Caroll-
ma. He said it was what took place
in Hamburg in July and in Edge
field in August 1875 that made
possible the election of Gen. Wade
Hampton governor. Recognizing
what the bravery of young Mchie
Meriwether meant to South Caroll'
ma, the legislature took suitable
steps to perpetuate his memory
Mr.. Sheppard said it was peculiarly
fitting that one who was present
and took part in trouble at Ham
burg in July 1876 should have been
chosen to deliver the address on
this occasion, thereup,n n presenting
Hon. D. S. Henderson, to the large
audience.
Mr.. Henderson said, "McKie
Meriwether perished for the cause

in Durango State

Ell PASo, Tex, July 3.-Francisco
Villa, with 1900 men, is in Durango State,
near the Zacatecas border according TO a
report made TO General Bell there by a
scout who reached the border after a
months pursuit of the bandit chief. The
scout, who formerly was one of Villas
officers, undertook the quest in the hope of
obtaining the rewards offered for Villas
capture. His report, however, conhicted
with previous reports that villa was at Bou,
quillas, 10 miles west of Chihuahua City
The scout said he once was within 20
miles of the outlaws camp. When he
reached there he was suffering from wounds
inflicted in the city of Zacatecas by MexI-
cans he recognized as having been for
merly in Villas army. He escaped then,
he said, through the aid of friendly natives
The scouts report supported rumors cur
rent here that villa was in Juarez a week
ago yesterday. He said Mexicans in Chi
huahua City told him this was true.

ONE COTTON OPERATE r BUYS
$4,000 BALES ON THE CALL
Big Purchase at Opening Is Either for
Covering or Foreign Account

NEW YORK, Jufy s.--what was perhaps
the most remarkable opening In normal
times was witnessed on the Cotton Ex-
change this morning. One operator vir-
tually made the market by purchasing about
$4,000 bales Of fall months.
The tone was strong, with July and Oc-
tober points lower and other months to
points higher. Between the low point on
october and the high point on January
there was q difference of 10 points, as COM
pared with Saturdays close.
The buying by the one trader was be-
lieved to be covering of d line OF shorts put
out some time ago. although there were
some who believed It might be for foreign
account. Commission houses, Wall street
room traders and Southern interests were
selling. but all the offerings were freely
taken and moro was bid for.
The early advance carried the active
months about to points net higher with
December contracts selling up to 1917 or
is points above the lowest level reached
since the publication of the Governments 3
report.
The market hesitated around II o'clock

Reports of rain in extreme southwest
Texas may have had some influence. but
the market in a general sense seemed to
be huctuating between the bearish ideas
of the yield based on Saturdays report and
the apprehension of rapid deterioration in
crop prospects during July and August.
The receipts of cotton at the ports for
the day were estimated at 5000 bales
against 1888 bales last week and 6676 bales
last year

1t was learned today that of the thou

to be a set phraseology, This runs:

being directed upon General Carranza,
