"You can't fool all the people all
the time," ait?fce people are finding
out which place pays the highest
price for cotton, as our receipts will
show. This town has shipped more
cotton already this season than any
point on this division of the Southern
Railway.
* *
*
Last week four wagons loaded
with cotton, from the Go van section,
started to market. Two came
to Bamberg; the others went elsewhere.
The parties who came here
sold their cotton for 5.75; the others
sold for 5.52?same grade of cotton.
Is any argument necessary to prove
that Bam berg pays the highest prices?
All we ask is that anybocty, no matter
who, put the matter to a fair
test. Bamberg is getting the cotton,
too. Prices will tell.

Bamberg's cottou buyers are all

can feel sure of being dealt with
fairly here. They don't offer him a
high price for one bale and a low
price for others, but give him every
point the market will afford on all
he has. Our buyers here buy for the
direct exporting houses, and consequently
they can pay more than
other places. We are not talking
buncombe. We mean every word
we say, and we cordially and earnestly
invite a comparison with other
places. All we ask is the opportunity
and we will demonstrate the
superiority of Bamberg as a cotton
market.

Bamberg is the best cotton mar.
ket in this section of country. We
will give a fine hat to the person
who can successfully prove that an)
neighboring market is paying more
for all grades of cotton than Bamberg
is, six days in the week. It is
the custom with other markets to
pay a high price one day aud the
next to pay a low price in order to
even up. We heard of a man who a
few davs asro carried four bales of
"New York Under Tammunj

then offered to sell the buyer the

The attention of all melon growers
in Bamberg county is directed to
the effort to organize an association
for the securing of better freight
rates, and the good of melon growers
generally. As it now stands, the
railroads get all the protits tor
freight, and the farmer gets the experience.
It is useless to longer
plant melons unless better freight
rates can be secured. This can be
done by organized and persistent
effort. It cannot be done otherwise.
The farmers hare the remedy in
their hands. Will they take advantage
of it, or will they, by their indiffereuce,
let the matter go by default,
and allow the railroads tc
gobble uj* their hard earnings again
next year? We hope to see a large
attendance at the meeting to beheld
in the court house the first Monday
in October, and definite action taken
to remedy the evil. Other counties
are organizing; let's get up a strong
working association.

New York Under Tammany Rule.
LATE TREASURER SHORT.
Mr. Tree's Accounts Show a Deficiency
of Over Eight Thousand Dollars.
Quite a large shortage in the accounts
of a deceased county official
came to light yesterday in a way
that was niost unusual. The de-"
ceased official's son, upon that official's
death, was appointed to succeed
him. It was the son who discovered
the shortage, and upon
him fell the most painful duty of
communicating the facts to the governor,
but he did not flinch from
his duty, and in a straightforward
manner made his report.
A short time ago County Treasurer
Free, of Barnwell county, having
reached an advanced age, died.
He had been treasurer of the coun
ty for some six or seven years and
was held in the highest esteem by
all of his fellow citizens. No one
drtamed that there would ever l>e
anything like a shortage in his accounts.
Even now 110 one can give
any explanation as to how the money
went, for Mr Free was a well-to-do
farmer and a careful business man,
and as far as known, did not need
any money.
The estate left by Mr. Free is amply
sufficient to cover the shortage,
and the bondsmen will lose nothing,
uuless a Sale is forced at a sacrifice.
He had a strong bond, and neither
the State or county can possibly lose
anything.
The letter of the son of Mr, Free
to the governor reporting the facts
of the matter is as follows:
Barnwell,*S. C., Sept. 1, 1899.
To His Excellency, the Governor,
Columbia, S. C,
Dear sin It is my painful duty
to report to your excellency that
since takiug charge of the office of
county treasurer for this county,
and receiving the funds transferred
from the accounts of mv father, the
late treasurer, by his executrix, that
a deficiency of $8,703,10 appears to
be due by my father as eouuty treasurer.
The amounts due by him
were as follows:
State funds $421,33
County funds .$ 5,281.14
School funds $11,051,54
Total $16,754,01
Thp anionnt of funds which inv
father had deposited as county
treasurer in the Bank of Barnwell
and transferred to me on joint check
of myself as his successor and his
executrix, was $8,050.91, leaving the
deficiency of $8,703.10 due as above
1 stated. My father left an estate
worth approximating, including reaty
and personalty, from $i 0,000
to $12,000, which his executrix and
devisees desire to turn over to the
sureties on his board to reimburse
5 them on their paying me, as the
1 successor of my father, the baleuce
r due by him as treasurer. The ex;
ecutrix and devisees have exhausted
every means to raise the money to
settle Che deficiency, and one of tfce
1 bondsmen has commenced a suit, on
? account of theircontingent liability,
> against the estate. The sureties are
, Mrs. E. M, Kennerly and Messrs. S.
Gr. Mayfield, J. W. Lancaster, C, B.
' Free and P. W, Sandifer.
I now deem it my duty to call the
attention of the State officials to the
condition of affairs, and will be glad
to render every assistance possible
in the adjustment of the matter.
While clerk in wy father's office I
knew of the amount of the different
funds in his charge, but as he kept
bis own bank book, it was only after
his death that 1 discovered the discrepancy
between the amounts in
his charge and the amounts on deposit.
Since the $8,050.91 was
turned over to me, I have remitted
the $421.33 due the State and have
continued paying county warrants
on county funds out of the money
* *
on hand.
Yours very respectfully,
E. D. Free,
County Treasurer Baruwe)!.
?The State, Monday, Sept. 4th.
Yesterday Senator S. G. Mayfield,
who was one of the late County
Treasurer Free's bondsmen, was in
the city. He called upon the governor
and upon the comptroller
general and talked over the matter
with those officials. He came here
look over Treasurer Free's last
settlement sheets in the comptroller's
office. Mr. Mayfield has entered suit
against the estate and has an expert
now endeavoring to ascertain theexact
amount of the shortage for which
' the bondsmen are liable. He says
1 there is no question about some
' $3,000 of tile reported shortage.
1 A certificate J n the office of the
r comptroller shows that the dead
treasurer l?d all the missing money
1 in the bank at Barnwell when he
> made his last settlement about a
. year ago. There is nothing to indicate
what became of it. The .shortage
is almost entirely confined to
tne county school fund which is
never paid into the Stjjte treasury,
but remains in the hands of the
> county treasurer. It; this case it
was a kind of accumujaujig fund,
and there was no method by whh'h
the shortage.could have been dis
covered by any one.
Gov. McSweeiiey yesterday asked
M the comptroller general to go to
Barnwell and make a thorough ex
^ animation of the books and accounts
s of the office and make a full report
s covering the exact condition of
d affairs. Comptroller Derham will
1 leave tomorrow morning to enter up
i on this examination.?The State,

Happenings in the utuntry.
Quite a pleasant sociable was
given on the 23rd, ult., in honor of
Miss Florrie Brabham, by Mr. and
Mrs. Northrop Bellinger. The evening
was passed very pleasantly, in J
chatting, laughing, singing, etc.,
till quite a late hour, when each re- j
turned to their homes, willing to be ,
claimed as Morpheus's slaves. The '
success of the evening was largely ,
due to the charming manner which ,
the hostess exercised in entertaining
her guests.
Misses Nelle and Eva Hanberry '
were the guests of Miss G. E. Jor- i
clan not long since. Miss Eva is ,
- .? . ? ii <
just from tlie city ny tne sea.
Mr. George Kearse, of Colston,
with his winsome sister, Miss Mary,
were visitors of Mr. Bennie and
Miss Belle Sandifer Saturday and
Sunday. '
The union Sunday-school picnic ;
at Bethlehem Lutheran church last
Saturday was quite an approved :
representation of the good work 1
that's being done there. The large 1
crowd assembled at au early hour. '
The choir began sending forth its
anthem of welcome at 11 o'clock, 1
Miss Donie Morris acting as organ- 1
ist. Rev. J. H. Wilson then gave
an interesting and beneficial lecture '
on "Patient Work," making sweet 1
his language by combining both
liierarymid biblical praise of Christ. 1
When dinner was announced the 1
table fairly groaned beneath its !
weight of delicious viands. After (
dinner lemoftade was serve&till all |
had sufficiently quenchew their
thirst, when they were again invited 1
to the church to hear an excellent 1
lecture by Mr. F. N. K. Bailey of
the S. C. C. I., of Edgefield, on
"Education." After this fluency of
marvelous words and beautiful language,
the choir joined in another"
anthem of goodbyes. We feel sure
that the two lectures combined
found a way to some young heart 1
that will rise, as a star, to call these 1
- - - ? i *1 1
two venerable gentlemen Diesseu. :
The remaining part of the afternoon
was spent in lemonading, promenadfug,
merry chat, and healthful 1
laughter. A close observer might
decide that some tender words of a ;
loving nature were exchanged between
some of the gallant youths
and blushing maidens, judging by
the pleasant looks, low conversation,
and innocent smiles. So passed the day
till old Sol casta lingeringlookover

the late hour, when all repaired to

think of the day's pleasure,^

md took him to Orangeburg jail.
All quiet now. (
Oraxgeburg, Sept. 4?Sheriff
Dukes probably saved the neck of
Jim Gleaton, a white man, who lives
near Norway. u
Gleaton is charged with attempt- t
ing to rape the daughter of a farmer e
residing in the same community by f
the name of Jeffcoat, last night i
about 10 o'clock, having broken in- f
to the house for that purpose. It is t
said that the screams of the girl d
alarmed the party. i
It doesn't appear that the evidence
is direct against Gleaton. who
denies his guilt.
Magistrate Weathersbee arrested .
Gleaton, but became alarmed owing
to the threats of lynching made by
a crowd who had gathered at his
court, aud wired the governor of the

was really alarming foi the prisoner I
the bold front of the sheriff and c:
his known courage and determiua- c

He procured the services of two
men who accompanied him (however
only two miles from the crowd),
after which for eighteen miles the
sheriff was alone with his man. He
lost no time and ran no risk, and
landed his prisoner in jail here at 6
o'clock this afternoon.
The feeling is pretty strong
against Glentou, but Sheriff Dukes .
apprehends no trouble now. j
