interesting Game 8 to 0.
The Lexington Athletics pull
ed further away in the pennant
race Sunday by defeating the
Corder team 9 to 0. The game
was very uninteresting, and the
peevishness displayed by the
visitors pitcher, also detracted
from the enjoyment Of the
game.
The locals pushed one over in
the first, and in the second and
third brought the total up to
a. BY this time Schumacher
was frothing at the mouth. On
his second trip to the pan he
was hit, and what little self-con-
troll he had left, went blooie. He
took the ball with him to first
base and then threw it away
Some spectacle! He should have
been spanked. But the game
finally ended and Corder was
humiliated in more ways than
one.

Mr.. p. b. Blakcney came across

is by Mr.. John I. Roddy of Rock
Hill. s. c., and he certainly took
his gloves OFF and threw them away
when he began writing. He says:
Might it not be possible TO so
impose upon the farming class that
they might resent it? While un-
qucstionably the most patient and
Tong suffering of all human beings
might there not DE a limit? Was
not the farmer before the civil war
considered a Country Gentleman,
and is he not after the world war
approaching Russian peasantry? Is
there any other class doing business
with him not soaking him for the
limit? Does not the doctor. the
lawyer. the banker, the merchant
in fact every class make him pay
them their prices. and does he not
have to take anything he can get
without any say so?
Ii he brings a COW into town for
sale. does he not get from three
cents TO five cents per pound and
if he wishes to buy a piece of the
same beef, does he not have topay
from 25 cents TO 40 cents per
pound? If he brings a COW hide
he will probably get IS cents or a
dollar for il. but If he wants a pair
of shoes, will he not have TO pay
FROM SO 10 SIS for them? If he
breaks his wagon and has to have

ably cost him q COW? Are not all
tools, machinery and his necessi-
ties on the same basis, and is not
everything he produces practically
carried out in the same manner?
