A Calhoun county sheriff shot tr. a fleeing negro, a silver dollar in the negroe's pocket deflected tlie bullet and the negro esc.*;,?ed. All of which goes to pr ;ve that money can b.' used :n various ways to evade the law. After careful calculation we are astonished to find that it took four months ten days and five hours to deli/cr all those tariff speeches that have been crowded in to the Congressional Record during the past ten days. In the exuberance of its town p? ide a North Carolina contemporary says: "Do everything in your power to build up your town and it will come back to you doubled " This may be alright for Pittsburg, Pa., but the averge man wants it to come back straight.' Our Marion contemporary. The Star, is much rejoiced over the fact that the crooked line around Latta has been straightened, and wiih much unction takes credit unto itself for having aroused the sentiment which prompted a change in the lines. Of course n:n? 1 t _a.*._ * ^ i_/11tun aim i^auu ieei jrratetul to The Star for its kind offices and if the reunion of the two towns leads to the ultimate success ol the New County they will, we have no doubt, show their rratitude in a more permanent and substantial manner. But for the present our contemporary should be content with the "Well done, thy good and faithful servant." 03S3333 I OVER Q g Jef l M Saves to the Soutl m disputably proves eye of Southern P w ................. m : SM J The re-insur becomes n policy he CD Department of No | with the North Car 8 ers of the Southern } Carolina law will r< of securities to prol r*t I SON as the premiu w , M ITJ A? an i * V Prompt Settlement. -.

The rheat grower ol the middle and restern states has already learned lesson from the law that fixes !ie price of a commodity as it asses fnfm producer t<? consumer nd has profited by rt. In years f over-production the surplus In.-if <>! ??!. ic ctiir.id in i<lin-.ilnr? ml huge w irehouscs and is hand d out to the world as it is called >r. The result is a steady niarkI \rith an upward trend. 'Phi; is hat the world e: li e ? nm >ti ns Tlv husin ss uan calls it radical business inetaod .

The southern pc >pk ?especially tose whose vcrv exi hetieedcpends i the price of cotton?know this it they prefer not to believe it. istead. when the price goes nvn they protest against "buek-shops" and an imaginary"ring" ' cut-throats that controls what known as the "pit" in the New ork cotton exchange. The "ring'," it is true, takes 1 vantage of the fluctuations of ic market and brings about reaction in the price of cotton, it the "ring" is not respunble tor those ihictuations; they e Caused by the producer hini lt who tries to force upon the orld something it doesn't need id doesn't wantSpeculation had nothing to do ith the recent rise in the price ' cotton. The world is getting ion and the eonsutner is knocking at the door of the storage arehouse. The surplus is in ie hands of men who arc not cornel led to sell and as the knocking ets louder the price goes higher. This should be evidence enough iat the warehouse plan is the nly solution of the cotton prob;m. essaaas h t J\J H I rn Life Insurance Company ife nsur. le North if this business ha( 193,498.03 is the Strongest ii E? 39SKIVBC^Ct^v UOESt' Zi.' u ^ . 1 ?.i. . .
