TEE LMANNG TIMES. M a ri '13,- 0 S. A. NETTLES, Editor. WEDNESDAY, JULY 31,1889. Of the 255 American art exhibitors mat Paris 108 have been honored with medals and other recompenses. The heat in Russia and other parts of Northern Europe has been very intense of late. The Central Observ atory at St. Petersburg has not re corded such a high temperature at the same time of the year since 1774. During the last year 127 cottages, 20 two-story residences, 15 stores, 2 churches, 1 Sunday-school hall, 1 gospel tabernacle, and 1 planing mill have been put up in Columbia by the resident contractors, and dozens of buildings have been remodeled. At the firemen's tournament in Florence last week, Columbia won five of the prizes, aggregating $225. Forebce won the other four prizes aggregating $190. Sumter and Orangeburg also competed, but they failed to win any of the gold. The jute bagging trust is strug gling for supremacy, and will sell jute bagging this fall at a much lower price than last year. But the farmers will very probably buy the cotton bag gwg, even if it doeseost a little more, to show the jute trust that it is not omnipotent. Emil Hyman, who about ten years ago murdered Fanny Cochran, a dis reputable woman of Charleston, was pardoned last Monday by Governor ichardson, on condition that he would forever leave the State. Hy man was the only Jew in the peniten tiary, and was employed as a cook. The grape crop of Mr. F. C. Lech ner, of Timmonsville, has grown to such magnitude that he has gone North to handle his shipments in per son. He will ship this season about forty thousand pounds. This, at 20 to 30 cents per pound, is a right rice thing for Mr. Lechner, besides being a credit to Florence county.-Florence Friend. President James E. Tindal has caled a meeting of the county farm ers' alliance for next Friday week, and business of importance will be transaeted. A report of the delegate to the State alliance will be heard, a business agent will be elected,.and an . efecutive committee will be elected. These elections are important mat ters, and should receive careful consideration. Start right, and it is comparatively an easy matter then to keep right. We can right here in South Caroli na raise all the jute that the South can use in the way of cotton bagging, and if it is found that cotton bagging is not a good covering for cotton, and that we must go back to jute bag gag,'our people can add this indus 7ry to the State. It grows rapidly ~and luxuriantly in damp moist places, . and is not a difficult crop to get to market. But, then, it is not at all ootton. The State Farmers' Alliance met ini Columbia last week, and held an -interesting meeting, full proceedings oftwhich will be found on our first *page. This organization has made quiet but rapid progress, and gives some evidence of becoming a factor of great good to the agricultural cldass. We are much pleased with the sytmtcand business like way in hihthe work is done, and with auieh long-headed conservative men at the helm it bids fair to be a success. But to be a success the members -zm4g stand together and stand up to their obligations. -Ex-President Cleveland, says the New York World, is peculiar as a fish erman. .Not only does he possess bothat'ence and luck, but he has * aidremarkable skill in manipulat da-ig arod and line. But the strange ~estare of his piscatorial pursuits lies injbe fact that he is superstitious. He never permits his left hand to rest in front of his right on the rod. Fur harmnre he never expects to catch T sb if he has seen the new moon over his left shoulder the night before. He was equally superstitious regard ing his political luck, and never be gan an important message or speech on Friday. Augusta has recently had two cow hiding sensations, in each case a handsome young widow wielding the whip. Each widow felt that she had been wronged by some ungallant gos sip of a gentleman friend. The first young widow was a New, Jersey Yan *kee, and to avoid arrest she left im mediately after the cowhiding for her home in New Jersey. The other risk ed the consequences, and was sen tenced the next day by the Recorder's court to a fine of $100 or ninety days in jail. She was not able to pay this fine, and, as she had a young baby, the Mayor after putting her under a peace bond of $100 1emitted the fine. Augusta is a lively place. The Farmers' Alliance Movement. The Farmers' Alliance movement s watched, the country over, with keen interest. Whether it shall unite with the Western Wheel or not, it cannot fail to be a movement of com manding importance. Our Southern farmers, however, should bear the fact in mind that these associations are prone to at tempt too much. No one set of men can regulate everything. The farm ers, for instance, can't "run" the farm, .-the 1orum, the legislature, the church, and keep a shop at one and the same time. The South Carolina farmer is nat urally a conservative man, subject to be focoled at times, as we all are, but .on the whole a man who waits for the wagon most judiciously. There can be no doubt that the Al liance, properly handled and confined to its legitimate purposes, will effect much good; but if it enter politics at all, its work is done and its failure certain. The Alliance, being a secret body, is manifestly no proper place for politics. The Register is almost sure that this will be attempted, but it is also confi dent that the farmers of the State are not going to let the politicians make their jack at the expense of the legit imate work of the Alliance. A man who is not willing to stand out of doors with his competitors for office, share and share alike, is not worthy of support. And he who would mix his individual aspirations with a great farmers' movement like that of the Alliance confesses his selfish aims by the very act. The Ancient Order of Free Masons has set an example in this regard worthy of all praise. This order has confined itself to the legiti mate purposes of world-wide fellow ship and unfailing charities, without permitting itself used for political propagandism. The result is that it has continued to live through good and through evil report in all parts of the world, a blessing to all mankind. Let our farmers profit by this noble conservative example.- Columbia Reg ster. HE DIDN'T SAY IT. Judge Kershaw Denies that He Said the McDow Jury Found a Just Verdict. To the Editor of the Neus and Cou rier:-A few days ago I saw publish ed in a Charleston newspaper a card signed by Dr. .Todd, of Barnwell, in which it was stated that Judge Ker shaw had told him (Dr. Todd) that if he had been on the jury in the McDow case he would have been compelled to find the same verdict. This statement was entirely contra ry to the views expressed to me by Judge Kershaw shortly after the jury had retired to deliberate upon the case, and I was satisfied that Dr. Todd's statement was incorrect and that he had entirely misunderstood what the Judge had said. I accord ingly wrote to Judge Kershaw, en closing Dr. Todd's card, and asked him to write me his recollection of his conversation with Dr. Todd. I have received a reply from Judge Ker shaw, from which I beg leave to quote the following: "I have never consciously formed an opinion as to what my verdict would have been in the McDow case had I been a juror, and never intend ed to state any such opinion. If I ever stated any such opinion it was stated hypothetically and qualified by some condition. As you know, I studiously avoid forming any opinion on questions of fact before me, upon which a jury ought to pass, and it is not my province to criticise a verdict. I must assume that it is rendered con scientiously in all cases. "I expressed to you privately my opinion after the jury retired in this case. I said I regarded the prisoner in a position of great peril. That the evidence in its worst aspects would warrant a conviction for murder. That, taking a favorable view for the prisoner, it would be manslaughter. But that if the jury believed McDow they might find not guilty. That McDow's statement was sufficient, if believed, to raise a reasonable doubt. I attached no importance to what was said in my conversation with Dr. Todd, but am sure that he greatly misunderstood me. "I adhere to the views I expressed to you and am not conscious of hav ing at any time had any other opin ion on the subject." The apologists for the jury, who seem to have derived great comfort from Dr. Todd's statement, will now AMC17a CURLE. Charleston, S. C., July 29. Too Quick on the Trigger. The shooting on Monday morning of Oliver Jackson, colored, by Hal Power, the night watchman at the Savannah Valley depot in Anderson, is a very serious matter. The facts before us are exceedingly meagre and it is hoped, for the good reputation of the State, that the whole story has not been told. In the light of the report published yesterday, the shooting, of Jackson appears to have- been wholly without justification. It is said that Jackson was trying to break into a freight car, and that he was found behind a pile of lumber on the depot platform. He was hailed several times by the watchman, and was ordered to come out from his hid ing place. "Come out, or Ill kill you," the watchman said, "and the man failing to come, Power shot, the ball taking effect in the centre of the forehead." The narrative continues: "The negro fell and moaned. * * Oliver is not yet dead, [he was confin ed in the guard house after being shot,] but is not expected to live. No further action has been taken." This is the plain and matter of fact story of a very deplorable event. If Jackson had been captured and sent to jail, the severest punishment that the law would have inflicted upon him, after conviction in a court of justice, would have been imprison ment in the penitentiary. The law could not have taken his life for breaking into a freight car, and yet a night watchman shot him down be cause "he heard a noise out, as if some one was trying to break into a box car." Is there anything in South ~Carolina that is quite socheap as human life ? IIt is true that the colored popula tion of South Carolina is too large and that it should be reduced, but as long as the negroes are under the law they must be protected by the law. News and Courier. Twenty-three Murders in Birmuingham. BXMIrontHi, Ala., July 26.-Twen ty-three murder cases and three rape cases, making a total of twenty-six capital cases, are set for trial at the present term of the criminal court, and the grand jury, now in session, is grinding out indictments for mur drat the rate of two per day. In addition to these cases there are four persons .in the county jail who have been sentenced to death and have appealed to the supreme court. A large number of murder mysteries have recently been cleared up and the guilty parties arrested, and at least twenty hangings are expected to take place during the next six or eight months.

Grayson, of Cronville, Franklin parish, La., says: I think Swift's Specific is the best blood rem edy in the world. I have known it to make wonderful cures of persons with blood diseases, some cases which had been regarded as incurable. Dr. B. T. Coppedge, of Verona, Mo., says he has sold a large quantity ,of Swift's Specific, and to a great many customers, and knows it to be most successfully used for maladies of the blood. Swift's Specific is not one of the old potash, sarsaparilla, or mercury mixtures. It contains no potash, no mercury, or any poisonous substance. It relieves the system by forcing the impurities out through the pores of the skin, and builds up the patient from the first dose. We sell great quantities of S. S. S., and the sale holds up well-no falling off, or prospect of falling off. While many are loud in its praises, not one complaint has been heard from our customers. J. E. SE.UnS' DtuG STORE, Waco, Texas. The Eutawville Railroad. The Eutawville Railroad is moving on to Sumter at a rate that will soon put this city and that town in close and quick communi cation. President Barkley has been pushing the interests of the road with energy ever since he took charge, and but for the unfortunate delay caused by the washing of a part of the Santee bridge would have, by this time, been into Sumter with his railroad. President Barkley and Directors Pregnall, John S. Silver, and A. A. Howlett, of New York, have just completed a thorough in spection of the road from Pregnall's to Sum ter. The object of the tour was to locate depots on the line in Clarendon and Sum ter counties, and in the city of Sumter. 'he completion of the trestle over the Santee Swamp will take from four to five weeks. The plans and specifcations of the passenger depot in Sumter, the round house, the express office, the car sheds, etc., have been contracted for with a view of having these buildings completed within the next two months. The city of Sumter has granted the railroad the lands on which the buildings will be erected. From the plans it appears that the depots and offices will be the finest in point of appointment in the South. Three hundred tons of rail have been shipped by steamer from New York to ena be the company to commence laying the track from Sumter immediately. Eighthun dred tons of rail are now at sea on a schoon er, all of which will lay and relay the line with 60 pound rails from Sumter to Preg nail's. The company had hoped to be able to be running through to Sumter by the 15th of September, but on account of the unfore seen obstacles it is now thought that it will. be the first of October before the line is in complete operation. It is understoa that the nany of the railroad will be changed from the Eutawv ville Railroad to the Charleston, Sumter and Cheraw Railroad, but the change is as yet only under advisement. The assurance is given by the management that the rail road will be operated in the interest of this port.-ews and ourier, July 27th. CONSU.. URLY CU.).
