The sickness of Justice McGowan will prevent the opening of the Supreme Court in April. Hon. J. P.

Judge Hudson has decided that i Ol.tk rnnoi rior. o linnnr I Witi (Jlit viuu mu.ii, J/aJ " license, The club has appealed io the Supreme Court. Twenty-four States have adopted the Australian system of voting. Ohio, Penneyivania, m-uiois, Iowa and Idaho are the only Northern States that have held out against it. ? ? The Coosaw case has been trans ferred from the State to tho United States District Court. This will entail a large expense on the State in addition to the loss of revenue which she was receiving from the Coosaw Company. A family of five campers enroute from Tennessee to Texas died in awful convulsions in Baxter county, Arkansas, from having drank boiled coffee out of a pot in which a large centinede had crawled without their knowledge. Tliis deadly poison it is said caused their death. Henry Brabham, the negro who murdered the Italian, Mocca, in Charlotte a few days since, which almost caused a bloody war between the whites and blacks, was found guilty by the jury which was out only twenty-five minutes. It i3 said the negroes approve o^the sentence. Grand preparations have been in Allnmcfa f/vr iha rAAAT>tir?T) of JJJaut/ *V* V4*W * Www^, ? Hampton's Brigade on Monday next. Gen. M. C.

Bichland, Sumter, Charleston, York, Chester, Spartanburg, and j Greenville counties and the proposed new county of Calhoun, and also the towns of Rock Hill and Blacksburg have made provisions for the erection of Centennial Arches on Main street, * Columbia, and seven other counties j are working to that end. What are r the Lexington committees doing? We hope they are pushing ahead in. no idea of making a~ SSjg-i Hi^LwTM in t ! I It is confidently* stated by the knowing ones that the j crop of 1890 91 will reach between 8,000,000 and 8,250,000 bales. A gentleman who has been traveling j through this State for several weeks j informs the Augusta Chronicle that the farmers have not nearly marketed their cotton vet. At every farm ; * house he saw it piled under sheds | and outhouses, and gins are still being bought to gin the present crop with. An increase in the crop of the above magnitude is a big jump, and as their is a slim demand for manufactured cotton goods, doubtless a good part of this crop will be carried over till next season and help to keep prices of the next crop depressed. "With these facts staring the farmer in the face he should be certain to ! raise ail the food necessary for home j consumption this season. -i ni^narab j X WJ. ?UC A/i>7^/WW Batesbnrg. Lexington C. H., April 20,1891. Mr. Editor: It has been my pleasure to spend a few weeks in the pleasant little town of Batesburg j with relatives and my friend Mrs. E. | B. Smith. I found it quite a glowing place; a goodly number of inhabitants, the greater part energetic, go-a-head men. There are twelve stores, two churches, two good schools, one has over eighty scholars the other about fifty; two banks, two millinery stores, one jewelery shop, and half dozen or more mantua makers, last but not least, the hotel, kept bv Mrs. E. B. Smith, where the wearv " * ? traveler can find comfort and rest I - - i j i _ r A . I from ins journey, lms noiei is quuo large, and is kept in perfect order; 'tis said to be the best in the State; the table is supplied from both Bafcesburg and Augusta markets, and all who are fortunate enough to j stop there will find the hostess cour- ; teoo? and kind; ever ready to make ! her guests enjoy their Btay at her j house. We recommend her hotel to the traveling community as she deserves the patronage of the public. j A Via: xon. For the Dispatch. "To Our Fanner Friends." It was my purpose to "writ up" our co-operative banking and rner cantile enterprise in Columbia, but I find that the "sad calamity" (published last week in the Dispatch) that has befallen our neighborhood? our family?has unfitted me to undertake it at this time; though I will say this much: Combination of capital to pay upon the labor of the country is the order of the day and unless we combine our hard sense and hard cash for mutual protection and benefit we are sure to be robbed. It is our duty and privilege to combine; and an opportunity is afforded us in this very enterprise, to work together for the general good; and what helps the farmers as a class, helps me as an individual. It is not so much the over production of cotton that is hurting us, as it is the "under" production of bread and ? I A *1 Jl I meat. I tor one, am not airaia tnat the price of cotton will be lowered by "small merchants" becoming fanners. While upon this idea of over production I would suggest that perhaps certain "small merchants" will find it to their advantage to "inquire within" to look among "themselves," and see if it is not over production "there" that is "hurting." The laws of supply and demand always, when honestly administered, and . not "cornered" and "futured," regulate themselves in justice to all. It is only against this wicked spirit of speculation and extortion that we protest and combine to resist. J. L. Souleb. Selwood, S. C. For the Dispatch. Lessville Items. Snrinff has returned with all the O beauty and loveliness of earth. Our streets are once more shaded by the beautiful trees along the sidewalks, and the flower gardens and piazzas are just lovely with flowers and pretty girls. The weather is warm and dry, and the grain crops are needing rain, also the many different seeds which have just been planted. Mr. Rufus Shealv has cotton almost ready for the hoe. une oi our ex-proiessors was married on the 16th instant, to a highly esteemed gentleman of Columbia. They have our many good wishes for future life. A bridal trip to Alabama will be enjoyed by them. The holiness men have left us. There was a great deal of good gotten out of the meeting, by all who were desirous of such. They are now at Williston on the South Carolina railroad. We were very sorry to hear of the sudden death to which Mr. Bennie Nunnamaker, and Bennie and Bobbie JDrelier came. Bennie N. was an old associate of mine. He was a very promising ycung man. He finished his education about two years ago, and had many friends. The bereaved families have our sympathies. The merchants are not doing much now, as everybody in the country is busy in their fynus, and have not the time to visit this notable^| v ~ ffidmoii. with eajrer leaders and willing teachers^ The election of town officers will bs held on the 20th. May we have Godfearing men who are not afraid to do the right let the consequences by what they may. There is whisky sold on the sly here, but the parties are not known only by the consumers. The liquor trafic is the greatest enemy which now curses our country and we need men who will do everything within their power to exterminate the "Devil's water" from our land, One of our brightest young men, Mr. R. F. Able, left school a few days ago to take a position as mail agent on one of . the Richmond and Danville divisions to procure means to prepare for the duties which will Ilia tr/innrr in !V>o Ut* tMJ.jVl.liCU.

Mrs. Matteison and daughter have just returned from a lengthy visit to their relatives. A very sad accident happened on the C. C. & A. railroad, about four miles from here last Thursday night, which resulted in the injury of the fireman on the 7 o'clock passenger train. He was either thrown or jumped from the engine when the accident happened and cut his head We are truly glad to see Mr. Juo, Smith out again after a protracted illness of several months. The Baptist congregation are now without a pastor, but it is thought by some that Rev. Edwards of this place will be called to fill the vacancy Brother Ligon is just back from a trip to Johnston.

It has devolved upon us to attempt to edit this column placed at our disposal by the proprietor of the paper. It is a duty, as well as an honor, thrust upon us by the frater- ! nity from a merely conjectural standpoint, and if we fail to pan out to their satisfaction they yvill have to "take the will for the deed," and swap horses at the first opportunity. And we hope, in case errors are com initted, that the fault will be ascribed to our heads and not our hearts, as we know that all things looking to a redress of our Grievances as farmers - - o we are in entire sympathy and in solemn earnest. We ask that we fc* shown confidence, and judgment be po atponed for awhile on all utterances apparently false. The Editors. It seems that one P. J. Rucker, o guano fame, is considerably disturbed about the concert of action among the farmers in regard to their trade. Mr. Rucker must be somewhat fearful of losing the teat he has been sucking since he became a counter jumper. We have- been robbed by ruinous methods, prao i.: .3 > i i_ (self constituted) to the merer of grim circumstances. He should stand up to his rack and if he can't bite chunks like he once did he must put up with those "big men'' don't care to rake in. Don't get nervous, Mr. Rueker, keep a stiff upper lip. L. alliance picnic. The Committee of Arrangements, on the Alliance picnic at Rocky Well, near St. John's (or Rawls) church, Calk's road, Boylston Academy, to be held May 2d, 1891, consisting of G. A. Kaminer, chairman, G. H. Rawl, a w svipftlv p. t. Rawl from No. 890; with L. J. Langford from No. 910, S. J. Ballentine from 889, J. TV. Dreher from No. 606, met and arranged a programme for the day. First Speaker, Brother G. Leaphart, President County Alliance. Second Speaker, Brother J. F. Lyles, Editor Alliance Department of the Lexington Dispatch. Third Speaker, Brother A.

Edwin j Stokes, of the Batesburg High School address on education. Prof. J J. Walter Mitchell alternate. Dinner. Sixth Speaker, Brother J. Wm. Stokes; Presiden of State Alliance. Seventh Speaker, Brother W. J. Talbert, Lecturer State Alliance. It was unanimously agreed by the committee that inasmuch as the peculiar fitness and ability of Brother j Isaiah Haltiwanger, our County Secretary, qualifies him especially for the position of introducing the speakers, we appoint him to fill that i office and respectfully beg him to aoj cept, i It was further agreed that this programme and proceedings be published in the Alliance Department of the Lexington Dispatch, and a special invitation be extended to Alliance ? >'--n orirl IT-,q T-oiWin nnrl fVteir farm , r lies.

THE FARMERS' ALLIANCE, LEFENDANT8. . ! Peter A Co. are in good hands who i ! will give them what attention they ; deserve. The staff on duty in this depart ment considers it a duty to care for ' i } ( those only who have no one to care j ! for them, and in this connection we t | will only add that the trade arr&ngej ment that many "Subs" have adopted I ll III!

If "Big Ike" or little John either has not sense or cents ! enough to buy goods for "himself and family" and his Alliance presents him with a trade card to protect his interests and his family's interest. why cannot Peter, the Farmers Friend, (with a vengence) rejoice with him in his success in solving the problem of making his hard earned dollars reach as far as possible. John Bunyan's '"Christian" rejoiced greatly when he remembered that he had the <:key in -his bosom" that would unlock the prison cellaud allow him to pursue his journey to the "oelestial city." y If we are not mistaken^L will not i l L ue a great, wuue ueiore uie uaue card, that seems to bother Peter so much, will give way to something better and more business like, something less obnoxious to Peter & Co., and something that may-do more to unify, strengthed and place upon a solid business foundation that much divided creature?The Farmers' Alliance.

The stockholders met at 12 o'clock with Hon. J. Ji?. Counts in the chair, and E. M. Stoeber, Secretary. The committee appointed to ascertain the number of shares subscribed and represented reported" that 10,151 shares had been subscribed, and that 7,715 shares were represented either in person or by proxy.

If you have anything to sell that commands trade outside of your own city, use the country newspaper. In the country Newspaper you have a reliabje and effective friend that does its mission at more family firesides than do many of the metro< politan dalies. In the country weeklies the marriage bells toll more joyfully than in the great city papers, and when the columns of such a home paper tell us that some humble person has gone from the world we read with tears, for he was our neighbor and friend. The country newspaper is not only j a business guide, but it is a pulpit of i morals for the entiro community and ! county in which it is published. It j is a kind of public rostrum where the affairs of state are considered; i& is a supervisor of the streets . ghd roads; it is a social friend, a/promoter of friendship and goodwill.?
