fortunately we have had very
few cases of mob violence in the
state of South Carolina within the
past several years. We did however
two or three months ago, have a
lynching of a negro in the county of
Mccormick, which borders on the
Savannah river. 1 was reliably in
formed that a great many people
who composed the mob in that in
stance were citizens of the state OF
Georgia. 1t never occurred to me
that the sovereign state of Georgia
had invaded the jurisdiction of
South Carolina and violated its laws,
although if my information was cor
rect, certain citizens og Georgia did
participate with the citizens sof
South Carolina in the violation of
the laws of this state.
81 only mention this incident to
show the utter absurdity of Judge
Hammond's position. 1t is, to my
mind, somewhat remarkable that a
person who holds the high office of
Judge of the Supreme Court of the
state of Georgia does not apparent
~ understand the meaning of the
law which refers to an armed inva-
sion of n sovereign jurisdiction
by another. z
Heise in Dark.
"Judge Hammond states in his
letter: TT is known that sheriff Heise
knew of the formation of the mob
before sheriff Plunkett telephoned.'
Sheriff Heise assures me that this is
positively untrue ; that he commun-
icated with sheriff Plunkett as soon
as he received the information that
there would probably be an attack
and an effort made to secure the
prisoners, left the city of Colum-
bia. He knew nothing whatsoever of
the formation of the mob and does
not know that any mob was organ
lied in the city of Columbia. He
acted promptly, he states, in convey
ing his information to sheriff Plum
kett.
"The people of the states of Geor-
gia and South Carolina have for too
long mixed and mingled with each
other in the most friendly relation
ship, and the two state governments
have always had a common interest
and q common bond of sympathy,
and past history, heretofore, makes it
all the more absurd for Judge Ham
mond to suggest even. that the state

Good Yield Of Cotton in Sight,

MIR. Frank West has a better pros
pect for cotton yield than any other
'Edgefield county farmer of which
we have heard. He has about $50
acres in cotton and it has been es-
or. half-bale to the acre. Of course,
timated that he will harvest rs bales
the boil weevils have done consider
able damage but he planted early
and was fortunate enough to have a
large number of bolls mature early.
Some say Mr.. Vests good fortune
is due to his breaking the land deep
with a tractor, which fastened ger
mination and rapid growth.

upon the state of South Carolina,
and Governor Cooper's assurance
makes it clear, says Governor Hard
wick, that requisition will be prompt
ly honored in accordance with the

ends the diplomatic correspondence,
and there will be no disruption in
the diplomatic relations of the two
commonwealth.

Oats for Seed.

We want farmers of Edgefeld county
to know that we can supply them with
good seed oats at q very reasonable
figure. Pure homegrown Fulghum
Oats at 65 cents and other good seed
oats at 60 cents per bushel. They will
not last long at this price. Better call
early.

Deeds of Daring.

The seeming steady increase OF
crime suggests a paraphrase of a
line from Byron, "Link'd with one
virtue are a thousand Crimes" Not
only is wrong doing rampant; but it
appears that devils in human form
are holder and more brazen than
ever before, a d%are-devils sort of
spirit being on the increase too.
An exhibition of this occurred in
Sing Sing prison several days ago
when two fellows who were serving
a sentence for forgery actually for
ged checks to the amount of thous-
ands of dollars while doing clerical
work in the office of the prison.
Another example was. that of the
Illicit distillers, or some of his kith
OF kin, who recently broke into the
office of the sheriff eof Greenwood
county and stole a copper still that

Opening of School.

The summer vacation is nearing
its end and soon the school bells will
ring again. School openings should
be taken more seriously by many
parents. Instead of being looked up
on by. children as san ogre's den,"
the school room should always be
pictured pleasantly and attractively
to a child. Properly prepare the
minds of the children for the open
ing day by causing them to look
upon the school and teachers as
their best friends.
Then, too, the attitude of parents
toward teachers should always be
one of kindly cooperation and help
fitness. Some sh~ort-sighted, narrow
minded parents, get the impression
sometimes that teachers are a
thoughtless and heartless set who
care little or nothing for the children
they teach. This is a mistake. We
believe that, almost without excep-
ton, teachers are considerable of the
welfare and the progress children
under them make. Help the teacher
to help your children. They deserve
and need your sympathy, rather
than your censure. Be loyal to the
teachers of your school, whether it
be in the town or in the country. A
teachers lot is hard enough at best.
