Governor Heyward has received from the boll weevil association .of Jjmiisinna a call for a meeting of i.II cotton growers of the South, .to b?* held at Shreveport on December l'Jtli. The convention will he held f<n the purpose of organizing a National Cotton Growers Association to fight the boll weevil I _ 1 t * - which is auvaucing in tlie South at tin* r-ite of fifty miles per year. The governor in asked to appoint about 100 delegates. From 1110 information at luind, the escape of the man. Parish, from the court bouse at Yorkville ^Monday appears to have been due to negligence on tlje part of the county otlljials. There is apparently no excuse for allowing a prisoner thus walk from under tho ^ ery he Is of the law, ami a state-' pieut from the officials concerning tliis man's escape would be read with interest by the people of the county. % The United States secret service department.

The governor gives as a reason for his removing liniles tliat Bniles "had circulated certain litoratme which way detrimental t? society and a inotiance to social organization." Jn this all soundminded )ieop}e will agree. J3ut, in view of certain correspondence which took place about one year ago between the govern rand parties in this township, it seems to many that the chief executive has been asleep to the duties of his office in u >t sooner discovering this "detriment to society and menace to social orgauizat ion." ( Hhers believe that tlit* result of the recent primary in this township has served to awaken the governor to his duties and that Bailea was removed in order to conteract the feeling which it is claimed cost him n large number of votes at this box last August. Whether there is a plausible reason for believing the latter statement, we do not know, hut, if such was the motive of the governor, our readers can best judge the effect by the result here of the noxt primary in which lie Higures.

Drew, j( a middle-aged white man who whs ( wanted here on the charge of1 ' burglary and larceny, was arrested \ on the streets of Charlotte Tlnirs- i day morning at 11 o'clock. The ' authorities here were immediate- 1 ly notified of the at rest and Con- r stable T. A. Mills went up and ' accompanied Parish to Foit Mid on the evening train. The preliminary trial was set for ' Friday morning at 8:d \ hut, when 1 arraigned before Magistrate J110. ' W. MeElhnney, Palish waived the 1 preliminary and was committed to ' York jail in default of a $200 bond. I 1 The crime with which Parish is 1 charged was committed on Sunday ' night, September 20th, last. At I that time Parish was employed in one of the cotton miilu here and 1 was boarding at the h me of Mr. 1 W. F. Patterson. On the night ' mentioned Parish, with the mem- ( ..r r.1?1 1 uctn >n .m , i niiuiauii ? iiiuili) , ilfllJ Btnrted to preaching and had none ' about half way to church, when ' he eexused himself, saying that ho ] wag expecting imporinnt mail and ' would go by the postotfiec. This ' was tho last seen of Pariah. Mr. Patterson and family returned ^ home after the service nud there 1 discovered that a trunk belongit g to Miss Slonie Patterson had heen broken open and $18.7o taken therefrom. A search of tho house was made and it was found that Parish's room was also in a tumbled up condition and that ttie : thieves had evidently made away with some of the man's clothing, j Parish was not suspected of the theft for several hours afterward, but, when finally he failed to put iti appearance, it dawned upon Air. Patterson that he (Parish) was I the guilty one, and that during i * nit* ihidily s ausence nan laKen * bis clothing and tho money and dep uted. -Mr. Patterson at once i bad a warrant issued for Parish, but nothing was heard oT him un- 1 til Wednesday evening when a ( passenger on the evening tiain 1 informed (Miiet-r Hall, of this i place, that ho hat! that afternoon h met Parish on tin streets of Char-' lotto. The Charlotte otlicers were ! " asked to look out for tho man, and ! this they did, arresting him the 1 following morning. When arrested Parish strongly c denied his identity, claiming that " his name wus Drew and. appar- ' nut Iy. being at a decided loss to know why he should tie taken for the man Parish. However, while H talking with the otlicers at the po- ^ lice station, lie was seen to take j ' pome paperh from his pocket and ! iilterupt to burn them in the stove. ! k i)no of tho oliioers prevented thi> 11 and, examining tho papers, found 11 them to bo pay tickets from a 1 number of cotton mills, several of ' i.: .1. i i - ' which were issued iiy i tie cori ' Mill Mfg. Co., to J. A. Parish. ' " Besides the tickets, the officers j " also found a letter addressed to ' 1 Miss Slonie Patterson, the post ^ mark showing that it had been ' received at Fort Mill sometime I 1 last January. This evidence was 1 considered conclusive of the man's 1 identity and he was held until the H Fort Mill officer went up after him. 1 It is said that Miss Patterson has H since identiiied the letter as being . 1 the one in which slie had put. the ' c money before placing it in her trunk. Besides thisohargo, there is nnolher pending against Parish, j which may cost him a term. This 1 is what is called breech of trust. ; 1 Saturday afternoon before Parish's 1 ' departure on the night of the rob- I ' bery, lie went to the store of Me- j Ellntney-Parks Co., and after He- . lecting n suit of clothing, told the 1 proprietor that he would take it to hia boarding house, try it and j if satisfactory would return and settle for it. Pariah did not return to the store and it is supposed that he took the suit away when ho de- , parted Sunday night. ] It is expected that Parish will be i tried at the present term of court. Parish will be remembered as the man who several months ago i bad his leg broken while attempt- I ing to catch a freight train here, j and cf having been a patient of the Rock Hill hospital for several w^eka thereafter. , 1 Pi men po/vtnPG * o SIEfvni bo* C Since putting the nbovo in type, > the, chances for Pariah'* trial at I thia term of court have fallen i way below tho aero mark. In fact, ] another ooptnre will be neceaanry for a trial. Pariah ia again a fugi- I tive f-om justice, having escaped 1 from the county court house Mon- i day afternoon. It was during the I trial of another case, in w Inch tho i i interest of the court was centered,' 1 that Parish arose from his sent . and, unobserved, walked leisurely , from tho building to his freedom. At the time of the escape the grand jttry vn?s investigating the P.rish case and found a true bill. I.I I I i^l I m I ?( >.?<* SQUIRE WILLARD 0" BAILES OUSTED 3oy.
