Sept. 28.?A bitter tight against- alleged race discrimination in various parts of the country will be made shortly on behalf of ne* groes before the Supreme Court. The Oklahoma and the Maryland * "grandfather" constitutional amendments, by which thousands of negroes 0 have been disfranchised, will be at tacked as unconstitutional. An effort will be made to have the Oklahoma "Jim Crow" legislation annulled. An attempt will bemade byTennessee negro organization to be permitted to use the name "Knights of Pythias" for negro lodges. r Frank Guinn and J. J. Beal, two 3 election officials, have been convicted e of conspiring to prevent several nef groes from voting at . the Congressional election of 1910 in Oky 5 lahoma. This was done on the basis . that the "grandfather clause" was g unconstitutional. The Oklahoma "grandfather clause 9 ! made it necessary for all persons . whose ancestors were not qualified to 3 vote in 1866 in this country to be g able to read and write in order to vote. g In Maryland damages have been re_ covered against two election officials 5 who refused to allow negroes to vote. 1 The officials were enforcing the I "grandfather clause." ) Five negroes seek to enjoin Okla. homa railroads from enforcing the "Jim Crow" law. They lost in the t lower Federal Courts, which went so 5 far as to hold that railroads need not furnish sleeping cars for negroes for g such accommodation. For several years a fight has been I waged between white and negro lod . ges of Knights of Pythias in the ) South over the use of the name. The negroes lost their cause in the Courts of Tennessee. Not High Living but Extravagance. Men talk about the hardships caus' ed by the advanced price of food. ? That is a small matter compared with extravagance in seeking pleasure and : recreation. During the present sum" mer people of this state have spent twice as much for visits to pleasure resorts and mountain hotels as the whole state spends for food. The owners of automobiles are pay" j ing about two and a half million dolJ lars a year for the repairs and running expenses of automobiles. Nine[ tenths of them are used for pleasure L alone. That would buy bread enough for the whole state. People grumble about grocers' and 1 butchers' bills at home, but they send ' their families off to a summer resort and pay enough to keep them two months to meet all food bills for a k year. Let the people place the blame 1 where it belongs, but do not put it j all on the high pfrce of food.?Spar} j tanburg Journal. * ? tOne Man Killed, Another Dying. > Spartanburg. Sept. 30.?As a rer suit of a free-for-all fight at Chesnee * Saturday afternoon, Romeo Hender-json lies dead and Robert Riding is - J fatally injured. The skulls of both J men were fractured. The fight was between Guy BurIgess. "Bub" Hayes and Romeo Hen " derson on one side and Robert Ridt ing and his two sons, Mack Riding > and Charley Riding, on the other. 1 The fight was the outcome of a row 5 between Charley Riding and Romeo ? Henderson. All the men involved are white. At the coroner's inquest yesterday l the jury found that Romeo Henderr son came to his death from a blow . inflicted by a shotgun in the hands . of Charley Riding, fracturing his j skull. Death resulted Sunday afterr noon. ; Charley Riding was lodged in jail r yesterday, as were Burgess, Hayes - and Mack Riding, whose head was i considerably bruised. j She Got the Money. 1 ne young wue ui a. -uchuil man, who is not especially sweet-temper ed, one day approached her lord conf cerning the matter of $100 or so, - says The Chicago Record-Herald. i "I'd like to let you have it, my 1 dear," began the husband "but the ^ fact is, I haven't that amount in the s bank this morning?that is to say, I s haven't that amount to spare, inasmuch as I must take up a note for $200 this afternoon." "Oh, very well, James," said the j wife, with an ominous calmness. "If you think the man who holds the note can make things hotter for you 3 than I can?why, do as you say, 5 James." i | The Cotton Market. 3 3 Cotton is selling in Bamberg toff day (Wednesday) at 13% cents the ? pound.
