Theodore Price, the great New York Cotton Bear, laughs at the idea of the cotton farmers organizing and curtailing the production of cotton. He says the farmers have no faith in one another, they are narrow, selfish and ignorant and only have sense j enoogb to be r?ewers of wood and j drawers of water for the cotton gamblers and speculators. Will our farmers confirm this opinion of themselves by making more cotton this year than they can profitably sell? 5^b winni? ^ I I Fgte ft |H \ AND TOXIC PELLETS 1 B?j j J||\ which act gently and /jg? j \?,\ eliminate the poison ISSI vHU from your system. /J|r/ yjgATry One To-night.JSmj Tor n.f.

A Sad Accident. A peculiar accident occurred at Batesburg last Saturday. The sweet little girl baby of Mr. and Mrs. H. T. Wright, of Batesburg, lost her life. The circumstances surrounding the sad accident was indeed heart rending. Id the afternoon of that day several little girls were engaged at tbe Wright homo in a game of * bide and seek and getting tired of the game quit, and then for the first * time noticed the absence of little Annie. Search was made immediate- i ly and after some time she was found t fallen head foremoBt into an empty 5 post hole half full of water.
