NEARLY A HUNDUKD CASES In a Small Town In tbe Upper Fart of tbe State. The State has received from the up-oountry a letter bringing the intelligence that there are nearly 100 cases of|smallpox at the small mill town of Pelham. The in formation comes from a thorough ly reliable source and is of such a character that it seems to call for an immediate investigation by tbe State board of health. When Dr. Evaos of tbe State board was here p few days ago The State gave his summary of the smallpox situa tion ; he was of the opinion that the spread of the disease had been pretty well checked. In the letter referred to the wri ter says: “The chairman of the Greenville board of health is tbe authority for the statement that there are nearly 100 cases of •mallpox at Pelham, a mill town on the line between Spartanburg and Greenville counties. Dr. Jonei, tbe chairman, 1 understand has instructed the secretary of the hoard to write to the State board of health, suggesting that they take hold of the matter. I do not know that the GreHnville secretary haa done so, but Dr. Jones seems to think tbe sitnation a grave one. “The mill authorities held to the chicken pox theory and called in Dr. W. C. Black, of Greenville, who was the chief supporter of the chicken pox idea. The disease has assumed such large propor tions that the mill men and Pel ham doctors are now coming to their senses, and two of the three physicians went to Dr. Jones for advice. “The disease is undoubtedly ■mallpox, for it was taken to Pel ham by the same negro who brought it to Greenville from At lanta. He slept in Greenville one night with the Stenhouse family and went to Pelham next day. Every one who came in contact with him took the disease so far as I can.learn. “While I am on the subject, I will state that I have seen several of the negroes who were eick at the Greenville pest house and their faces are pretty badly marked and pitted. Some are much worse than others.”—The State, Feb. 19. Anderson un Lynches River. Lewis was captured with some of the goods, carried to Marion jail, broke out in a short time, was re captured and lodged in the same jail again, escaped the second time and never v as tried for tbe theft. John Belin may have escaped from Marion jail and never been brought to trial. If tried would have been in bis own county and surrounded by friends and not in the county our lamented Cox lived in. I firmly believe that if tbe said Belin was going to be carried to the Florency county jail and then placed in one of those iron cells, no lynching would have occurred. In my opinion Belin was not lynched on account of his color, a whit** man would have met the same fate under similar circum stances. Mr. Richard Cox was a good man, one that was loved and honored by both white and colored and we take this opportunity of extending to his bereaved wife and children our heart-felt sympathies. M.

THE GREAT THE RECENT LYNCHING. A UomiaiiulcaUuu from ’*M” ou the Much DiM-UM*d Subject. Mu. Editor: I notice from some of the papers that tbe people of Pee Dee township have been pretty severely criticised for the recent lynching. Well I am not especially inter ested, don’t live in Pee Dee town ship and had nothing to do with tbe recent affair whatever, but, I know a good many of those peo ple, both white and colored and if you will bear with me a little can show you that their reputation for law and order can’t be excelled in these parts at least. I war > n the grand jury year befure .ot and net a case came bef*' • us from Pee Dee township il ,T 0 the whole year. No cases .»»t year and none so far this year, as the docket will show. This may have been the case for a longer time than I took notice. Stealing is a grave occurrence except when parties from adjoining counties come over and commit the crime as was the case of the negro John Belin from Marion county enter ing the store of Mr. S. R. Eady and had been doing this for more than a year. Lynching, Mr. Ed itor, it a serious business and the crowd should weigh well the cir cumstances before they enter into it, and in my opinion the lynohsrs of John Belin took the matter Made a Well .Vlan of Me. 3Atb t>«y.
