WOMAN APPLIES FOR
GAME WARDEN'S JOB

Greenville, Oct. 10.-A widow,
with four children, has applied 10
Governor Cooper for appointment to
the place of chief game warden OF
Carolina. adding 10 her le:icr: Its
a man. job to support four children
and l think l ought to have mans
job"
Il know nothing whatever about
the job" she says, with engaging
frankness, but l can learn" and a
widow woman supporting four
children somehow impresses the or
dinary pedestrian as a person who
could learn.
Unfortunately for the applicant,
however, the place, from the present
indications will not be filled by ap-
pointment. Wade Hampton Gibbs,
present chief game warden, after con-
1erences with Governor Cooper, has
stated that he will continue 10 serve
until March l, and has withdrawn
his resignation.

Will Freeman, World War Veteran,
Charged With Assault Oh Young
Woman.

Will Freeman, white, world WIZ
veteran and wearer of two medals for
bravery in action, is IN the county
Jail charged with criminal assault on
Il young woman whose parents reside
within few miles of town. The
preliminary, which was to have been
held Tuesday morning before Judge
HaSelden, was postponed on motiOR
of the defendants attorneys. The
alleged assault is said TO have taken
place Monday night on the public
road between Dillon and Smithboro.
The young woman claims that she
had been visiting at Smithboro and
was returning home in young Free
mans automobile when he stopped
the car in the road and attempted to
assault her. Freeman stoutly denies
the charges and claims that he STOP
ped the car TO make an adjustment
under the footboard. He expressed
surprise when the warrant was served
on him charging him with attempt
ed assault. The case will likely
come up before Judge Haselden this
week. Freeman served overseas5
with Pershlng's forces and distin-
guished himself in action. He wears
two medals for bravery in action
Freeman is about "a years of age and
has family.

HON. Il. 1. MANNING
SPEAKS HERE TOUAY

Former Governor Richard l. Man.
ming, pesident of the American Pro-
ducts and Import Corporation, will
make an address at the school audi
torium today at IL o'clock. Mr..
Manning will explain in detail the
plans now under way TO organize the
gigantic corporation which aims to
open European markets to American
cotton and thus relieve the congested
condition of the American markets
which it is claimed is responsible for
the low price Of the staple. The
American Products and Import Cor
poration has a capital stock of $10,-
100000 and is backed by the brains
OF the south. 1t plans to sell cotton
direct TO Germany and Austria, whose
markets have been closed to the
southern cotton planter since the
outbreak of the war in 1914. The
corporation has well-defined plans for
sending cotton direct to Europe, and
Governor Manning has message
which every farmer in Dillon county
should hear. 1t is not a statewide
corporation, but takes in the entire
cotton growing belt and has the sup
port of farmers both large and small
all over the south. The meeting opens
promptly at IL o'clock.

COUNTY FAIR OPENS TUESDAY.
Big Carnival Company Ready For
Opcning-Free Acts Twice Daily.

Dillon county's first annual fair
opens promptly at 8 o'clock next
Tuesday morning The heads Of COM
mittees have been at work all the
week getting the various depart
ments ready for the opening day and
the indications are that DillOn's first
fair will surpass the most
sancguine expectations of the promo
ters Of the enterprise.
The big carnival company which
has just closed a weeks engagement
with the Norfolk, Newbern and Rocky
Mount fairs will arrive Saturday
night and have its various attractions
ready for the opening. This is said
to be one Of the largest carnival
Dillon is the smallest town at which
it has ever pitched its tents. 1t is
said to be a hlgh-class carnival and
carries many excellent attractions.
The racing will be a feature of the
week. Dillon has in the past held
many fine racing events, but in point
OF number of horses fair week races
will eclipse all previous races on the
Dillon track. Horses are coming in
from everywhere. In addition to the
horses that have been on the Vir-
glnia- Carolina circuit there will be
horses here from Tennessee, Ken
lucky, Georgia and other States. The
Fair Racing Circuit, which will take
III Columbia, Orangeburg, Greenville
and Spartanburg opens at Dillon and
this alone assures an unusually large
number of horses.
There will be two free acts daily,
one in the morning and the other in
the afternoon. The Sprunt-Farman
Company will have its new airplane
ready, and flights will be made all
during the day from the company's S
landing field just outside of the fair
grounds.

OAK GROVE

There was a big land sale here
last Wednesday, the P. G. Dew sand
hill place, near here, and the ]. S.
Hayes tract at this place, being auc-
toned off by the McLaurin Mills
Realty Company, of Bennettsville
Quite a good sized crowd was present,
among whom were number OF
ladies.
The Dew place was the first put
up and brought good price. The
greater part of the day was con-
sumed in the sale of the Hayes tract,
which was cut up into small farms
and town lots. This body Of land did
not bring a price satisfactory to the
owner and the sale did not stand.
Doubtless the gloomy outlook for
cotton will cause considerable
shrinkage, at least for the present,
in land values.
The appearance Of the boil weevll
also had its effect. This pest has al
ready made its appearance in Dillon
county. 1t has been said, however,
that he is not so bad on sand land
as on stiff land. If that be true
those who own sandy lands had bet
ter hold on to them.
Work on the new school building
is progressing nicely.
The Methodist congregation chris
tened their new church Sunday morn
ing by holding Sabbath school SER
vices in the building.
The fourth quarterly conference
for the Brownsville circuit was held
last Saturday morning at Bethlehem
with the presiding elder, Rev. D. A.
Phillips IN chrage.
Rev. C. S. Fielder was in this sec
ton last week in the interest OF his
work.
- Miss Eta Sue Sellers, Of Latta,
nome demonstration agent for Dill
Ion county was here one afternoon
last week.
The cotton feleds of this section
are white unto the harvest" but the
pickers seem few. However, since
the storm some of the farmers are
getting on picking fairly we'll. The
crop as whole is much better than
last year.

STATE CENSUS FIGURES
Total Population of South Carolina Is
1858, ,662.

South Carolina's total population,
as announced from Washington We'd
nesday by the census bureau, is L.
683. .662. as against 400 in 1910
should be extremely gratifying on the
whole TO the people of the State. This
lis a gross increase of 16S.262.
The basis of representation now is
211, 900 per representative. Under
the old time apportionment South
Carolina would need a few additional
thousands for an extra representative,
as eight congressman would require
1,6SS,000, which is 4,338 above the
total population OF 1,6S3,662.
Thus, while the state will not gain
an additional congressman, the in
crease would allow congressman
for each 235,0O0 population and the
reapportionment figures will not
likely exceed this figure.
The increase IN population for
South Carolina is placed Ill per
cent, which is the lowest figure in
half century.
The total population as given is l.
683, 1868, an increase of 168,262.
Going back half a century, the in
crease in 1870 was given as only
three-tenths of / per cent over 1860.
The south had been drained by the
ravages Of the Confederate war and
only 1888 more people were then
living in South Carolina than in
1850. The total population in 1870
was 705,606.
In 1880 large increase was regis
tered, the percentage in that census
being Ill, with total population Of
996,577.
The 11th census of 1890 gave
South Carolina population of l.
151,149, or an increase of 1876 per
cent.
The census Of 1900 gave the state
a population Of 1,340,316, or an in
crease of 1874 per cent.
