For quite a number of years Mr. E^leston bad beeu in declining health, and his family and friends could not have been surpiised if he had been taken trom them ere this. He was a Christian gentleman in the highest sense, whose daily walk and life won for him the merited respect j of all who knew him. His school' days were spent at Charleston and Uillsboro. X. C.,and at the age of sixteen he- enlisted for the war, a mere bearii?ess boy. lie joined the Governors Guards and belonged to the Second South Carolina Regiment, and, from stait to finish, fought for his country under that renowned General, Joseph B. Kershaw. He was in as manv acti ve engagements daring the service as any soldier of the Confederate Stai">. For awhii; after the war he was engaged iu the mercantile business here, but held the office of postmaster previous to his death for a period of about thirteen year?. No public official ever gave more general euu$iu<;uuu m iuc discharge of duty. Mr. Egleston married Miss Lou Aiken, of this place, who with two* daughters and two sons survive his death. His remains will be interred at the Episcopal cemetery this morning at 11 o'clock. The family and friends have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community ia their sore bereavement. Tested the Blood Hounds. - QruFiiday eyening Sheriff Ellison took the blood houmIs"*<7tit>!n^a test. A party was sent out of townaSS'tfT" two hours ahead of the dogs. Tbe route chosen was a very difficult one, the trail lead from the park woods across the Doty and Williford lands to the gin house of Mr. J. W. Bolick; from there it lead to the lands of Mr. TV. S. Weir, and on to the horse lot of Mr. Samuel Cathcart at Adders. Going through his horse lot it passed on in the rear of Mr Iluey's; near the Heron place it wound around by Bugg's place, out to the negro church and back to Mr. Cathcart's orchard when they "treed the fellow." These dogs will travel just about the speed those following travel, in fact they wiil not leave their master very far. Four different times "Big Joe," the ready trained dog, would stop until he could see the Sheriff or others of the party coming, and would wait long enough to be urged to go ahead. He showed that he was carefully trained on this matter. The route would make about seven or eight miles. The hounds do not open on the trail as often as some people think which is a great advantage in pursuing a party, for he would not know perhaps that he was pursued until too late to make a final escape. When the puppies are trained the pack will consist of four. Anvnnewho has children will re joice with L. B. Mulford, of Plainfield, N. J. His little boy, five years of age, was sick with croup.

He says: "I thought sure I would lose him. * I had seen Chamberlain's Cough Remedy advertised and thought I would try it as a last hope and am happy to say that after two doses he slept until morning. I gave it to him next day and a cure was effected. I keep this remedy in the house now and as soon as any of my children show signs of croup I give it to them and that is the last of it." 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by all druggists. * WILL HOLD THE FORT.

As appears from your columns one party was recently given 10 days in which to leave, and I find myself reported to the Superintendent ot soutnern Jtwuiwav Company for keeping a disorderly store. As my store is on the right of way, the object is to have me removed also. I am soivy that it does not suit me to accommodate the immacilate parties who arc so anxious to get my business, but I have reason for thinking that the railroad company will not have me removed in the teeth of a certificate of character from the gentlemen of the vicinity; and I propose to hold the fort a while longer.

The Courier had mentioned tho weight of a hog raised by Mr. Nicholson, of York County, rebutting a statement that this section of the South was not suited to hog raising. And goes on to say in connection with Mr. Beaty's article that "this tribute to the enterprise ?f Mr. Nicholson, of York, has-stirred up the jealousy of his ever progressive neighbors in Fairfield." This is a little erroneous, for the jealousy of the "Wateree Prize Club was "stirred up" about the year of 1SS7, and has been steadily increasing. They kept their organization in tact and as a result the Fairfield County Institute was brought forth. This County Institute took second prize at our State Fair in Colombia and first prize in Augusta in 1893 (a prize .of $G00.) "We are proud of the Wateree Prize Club and other prize clubs in our county.

They Call it Fan, bat Were They Funcing? Buckhead, Dec. 11.?It is reported that the Tillmanites were only teasing me at Jlonticello on the Gih ult., aud that my vote was counted. If it was a tease, how happened it that the registration book that they had there was different from the one of 1SS2, which had the number (296) and dale and name all correct? and how happened it that many thousands (the State says 200,000) of eligible voters were disfranchised in the same mauncr? This conrention which these socalled Keformers are going to try 10 enforce on the vast number of disfranchised people will be held in spite r>f fh#>ir wi'l to force laws nnon them and abolish other good law?, such as the homestead, lien and school tax law9, and add two dollars more on the present poll tax. This is all to be done without ever giving this mighty number of disfranchised people a chance of voting *>n the laws thus forced upon them by a small number (about one hundred and sixty partisans) elected by the Tillmanites. I see it stated that the profe6;ed Ke- ; formers are still bent on increasing the tax. The tax on one plantation has i been raised fully one-third more than 1 last year, taxing one-sixth of the income rf the place to pay the tax. A i lot of this tar. money is to be wrung < from the earnings of the toil and in- 1 dustry of the self-sustaining class of the people to support all these so-called ( reformed ond additional officers of the ; State and these schools which are call- i ing on the State for more help.

Winnsboro Drug Store,' THE COTTON PROBLEM Reviewed by a Practical Farmer. 1 Mr. Editor: The extreme low price ; at which cotton is selling will doubtless bring every thinking farmer of the South to consider very seriously be- : fore entering on the plans for another year. More than a passing thought is demanded, when the leading commodity of a country is selling for less than the cost of production. Such is the con- ? dition with the Southern farmer to-day. Although the cotton crop of 1S91 was the cheapest, and possibly as large as any previous one, yet the farmers will lose immensely; and if the voice of warning, so clear and imperative, is disregarded, and another twenty million acres planted, the last step to ruin, which is so well advanced, will then have been taken. Different plans have been suggested to remedy or avert the appending ruin, which have met with approval and disapproval alike. The co-operative trust plan, suggested by Mr. Roddy, seems to be commanding the most attention. A most wanting feature in the plan, however, is that no provision is made for a reduction in the acreage, which must be the foundation of any plan, that will alleviate the trouble. If five and six cents a pound for cotton is less than the cost of producing it, (which goes undisputed) I claim that we have the grandest opportunity before us that we have ever had; and if we fail to avail ourselves of it, vo should suffer worse than ruin. Ine farmers of the South have the privilege now of buying at least a portion of their next year's cotton crop, at a price far less than it will cost to produce it. A great trouble in getting the acreage reduced is, that we farmers as a class are very selll6h, and are afraid that if we reduce the acreage safficiently to guarantee a rise in price, that, our neighbor, who had made no reduction, and possibly an increase would be greatly benefited at our expense. The plan I propose is a simple one, which, if generally adopted, will reduce the acreage to any extent that may seem advisable, and at the same time give to those who adopt it, the benefit of a full acreage. The plan is this: Let a mass meeting of the farmers be held in every county; organize, and open books of stock in bales of cotton to the extent of at least 25 per cent of their this year's crop; pledging themselves to reduce their next year's cotton crop to the extent in acres that will be required to produce the number of bales they subscribed. Solicit loans from the banks to buy and carry over until next fall the amount of cotton subscribed, giving as collateral the cotton with a joint note of the county organization. I believe that the banks of the South are willing and ready to aid the farin anv -nlan th&f. wnnlrl hft hene ficial to them and the country at larjje; and that they will furnish the money at so low rate of interest as they can afford. I cannot see where any danger of loss, either to the. banks, or to the organization can be apprehended. Certainly none to the banks, for if they can afford to loan the farmers money to makiDg five cents cotmt ??m i mi mi ? bob gag?a??hcmbb There's No Cho The Victor Pneumatic tire ^ T<- * r* 4*Tl X iVdl- J.

On the other hand, the organization could lose nothing by the operation, for should the m-iee be less or 110 higher next fall than at the cotton would be bought, they will lose no more than would have been lost in cultivating the land required to produce the amount of cotton, and at the same time have the benefit of the reduction of acres devoted to other crops which might be profitable. If the above plan, or a similar one, was generally adopted, it would withdraw from "the market about two million bales of cotton, which would be carried into next year's crop, not as a surplus, but as the cotton that would have grown on the withdrawn i acreage. Thus all the present surplus j would be disposed of in a manner j aVvl/i tA fTM?A/ln^lV I IUUOI- ..V, mv ? with a 25 per cent reduction in acreage the crop of next year would not exceed six or six and a half million bales, with the two million carried over would make a total of eight or eight and a half million of bales, for which there would be an active demand at eight or nine cents a pound. If no organization can be effected, the plan can be adopted individually, wift but little fear of lo?s. For surely I the change that must corae will be for > the better. lluGn S.
