It moy ; fe. Tabor items. Taber, October 10.-Crop gather ing is progressing nicely in our vi oinity. In fact, colton is most all cut. The corn on the bottom lands was mostly destroyed by the over flows in tho summer. ob our crops are generally short. Tho farmers of this seotion have organised a cotton association at Ta ber and have passed resolutions to hohl their cotton for ll cents, ex cept where forced to sell. Wo would be glad to hear of the farmers organ izing in every school district in the State. This would belo to unite the farmers and bring them in closer touch with each other and help them to work more systematically in con trolling the price of their produce. Many farmers in iho rural districts do not seem to realize what has been done for them in the way of keeping the price of cotton np to where it should be. While perhaps thc cot ton association has not accomplished every thing it intended lo it has done wonderfully well and it ?K the duty of every farmer to join hands and help to carry out all plans and reso lutions adopted by the association. We arc glad to learn that our trus tees have employed John O. Hicks to teach our winter tenn of school Wo have an up-to-date school house, nu 11 |ilied with an organ and patent desks. We feel sure of a successful school. Farmer. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the /^-jj$TE2~ Signature of CJUK//ZT4U?JUU Three Years lor Murray.

Luther Billings, a negso, 27 years oki, was hanged by a mob at Bruns wick, Tenn., October 10th. He had attempted to assault a white woman. Supervisor Walker, of Greenville, baa called an election to be hold under thc Brice bill proviaionS for November l-l. An anti-dispensary victory is assured. The Supervisor ot Fairfield county has ordered an election upon the question of the removal of the dis pensary out of the county to be held on Doocraber 12th. The dispensary at Marion closed last Saturday, October 7th, and the stock on hand was shipped to the Floreuce dispensary. However, it is said that there was very little to bo shipped, and the institution seemed to gain in popularity after the elec tion. Full roturns of the dispensary election in Darlington county, held on last Tuesday, October 10th, have been received from all the precincts. The total vote cast was 959, of which 083 were for no dispensary and 275 for dispensary, giving prohibition a majority of 407. James Bridgeman, a young white man, was decapitated by a passeuger train on the Seaboard Air Line last Wednesday night, 11th inbtant. He had purchased a quart of cheap corn whiskey at the Cberaw dispensary a few hours previous and was probably asleep on the traok. Shortly ' after midnight, October 12tb, a mob of about 100 men, sup posed to be from Trenton, N. J., took Frank Leavell, a one-legged negro, from jail at Elkton, N. J., and lynched him in the woods near by. Leavell was arrested on the charge of attempting to enter the room of a young lady at Trenton Saturday night. He confessed. Thc Supreme Court of South Ca rolina has decided that John Wal drop must serve life-sentenco iu the penitentiary. Waldrop was con victed in Greenville county of the murder of S. J. Maddox and recom mended to tho mercy of tho court, lie was given a life-term and the ap peal has been turned down by the Supreme Court. The finding of a man's head in the front of 015 East Eighteenth streut, New York, led to the discovery of the murder, on Ootober 12th. The head waa wrapped in a white and blue Blurt and the Sunday supple ment of a German newspaper. Soon after the head was found a man told the police he believed the murder had been committed at 149 Third avenue, and that the body had been cut up. A search of the houso re sulted in the discovery of the arms and legs of a man in a suit case and the trunk of the body was found iu the oloset. Thc law, which was allowed to take its course in the Jim Padgett oase, has been vindicated. About two months ago the negro so con ducted himself towards a respectable little girl at Johnston that a lynch ing was avoided by sending Padgett to the penitentiary for safe-keeping. He was brought to Edgefield court house from the penitentiary and placed upon trial for assault with in tent to rape. He is a mulatto, S3 years of age, and his intended vic tim is a white girl, 13 years of age. She gave her testimony against him in a modest way. The jury retired to their room only long enough to write the verdict of guilty. Judge Gago sentenced Padgett to twelve years' confinement in the peniten tiary on October lilli. CA.? .ac o? x ?.
