I The residence on East Main street
occupied by Mr. A. X. Coppedge was
destroyed by fire at an early hour
Friday morning. The fire caught from
a lamp which had been burning during
the night, as one of the children
was sick and Mr. and Mrs. Coppedge
|had been up with it during the night.
The family was asleep at the time
and awoke to find "the house in
flames. They barely had time to gather
a few wraps and escape from the
burning building. The house which
belonged to Mr. T. A. Dillon was in
sured, but there was no insurance on
the furniture which was a total loss.
Secretary B. L. Stanton of the
Marlboro County Fair Association
phoned The Herald Tuesday that a
report had been circulated that the
Marlboro Fair which will be held
November 2. 3 and 4, had been called
off on account of an epidemic.
Mr. Stanton says this is a false rumor
and the Fair will be held next Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday without
fail. There is not an epidemic of
any kind in Bennettsville or anywhere
in Marlboro county for that
matter and the report is a fabrication
of the whole cloth.

to advise the people to plant only a;
limited amount of cotton next year
and raise lots of food and foodstuffs.

KLLOK HERALD, DILLO.1 SOUTH
"My Adeline" to Mr. J. Frank Boyer
of Norrlstown, Pa., for 91200. The!
.gentleman who purchased this horse
was the same one that Mr. Gibson
sold the fast trotter Hal Boy to last
jMay. It is a singular coincidence that
during the past five months Mr.
Gibson has sold two horses to Mr.
Boyer for the aggregate price of $3,700,
and both of these horses were
formerly plow horses on farms in
! Dillon county. The trotter Hal Boy
, was secure,] by Mr. Gibson from Heslekiah
Mcltae, a colored man near
i Little Hock, who plowed him for
nearly two years on the farm. The
| pacing mare "My Adeline" was secured
by Mr. Gibson from Tracy Tur-j
beville who works on the Dillon conn-;
| ty poor farm, and this little mare
plowed all of last winter and spring
and never saw a race track until May
of this year when Mr. Gibson effected I,
her purchase and started her train-!
ing. The horse Hal Boy has proved to
be a winner and his owner thinks ,
well of him. He has won eight out of '
J his last eleven starts in the north.

Some one who is interested in our
local company of the National Guards'
had a short piece in The Herald of
Oct. 19th in regards to the marked
improvement that the company was
showing and also that Weatherly lie
then of Clio was assisting the Com
manditig Officer with his work drill
ing the company on Tin day night
Sgt. Rethea is a member of onr local
company and it is part of every man's
duties t'? assist in the drilling of the
Company. The article two week - ago
is of such that it leads the public to,
think that Sgt Rethea made a special;
trip here for that night's drill only.

Editor Dillon Herald:
My fellow farmers of South Carolina,

j not want the farmers organized in the
| farmer's behalf but if he can get the
farmer torn to pieces to further his
cause he is satisfied. No doubt the
farming class has been frightfully
discriminate^ against in taxation.
There comes a time when everything
the farmer produces fails to make
him any profit and there is nothing
with which to pay taxes with; yet
a great proportion of the profit producing
class escapes taxes entirely but
llie fanner never escapes his. The
question that the farmers have got
to a>k themselves is, can and will th>*
old line politician whether in the
General Assembly or as Governor
make any utiempt to change these
condition.? 1 think not; hence the
imperative necessity of cleaning out

| My fellow farmer and citizen of
South Carolina, of every vocation and

yearn to come it is going to take every
ounce of our energy, the greatest
of wisdom and all of our constructive
conservatism to save this state
from hii economical, moral, social,
political an educational disaster? I
J cull upon the God-fearing men and
women to realize that the fight is on
and to save out people from the
slough of despair and the demon
I politician who would set this state on
fire for his own sake. We must get
together and fight the politicians
who would go over all this state next
year and hnrrnnguc our poverty
