Santuc Farmers are behind with their work, but all are about through planting their cotton seed and some corn has been planted, but this crop's planting limitations is of several months. The cotton has been reduced, and corn acreage will be increased. Wheat here is badly rusted and is poor, but oats generally are good. Sweet potato plants are being set out, some tomatoes (for canning) are growing, gardens are very good, the peach crop is promising, quite a number of hogs are in the country, cows are getting fat, there is ple^* of milk and butter, chfcke"n8-ar&.qr"T-~vving, bees making honey and we are all well. Last week Johnny Woods, a middleaged colored mat) died. He had been in bad health for more than a year, and had been unable during the time to do any work. much. He had accumulated some property, owning a tract of land and mules, but like many utiici men, eiuicr wnite or colored, let prosperity of two or three years ago carry him off his feet, and I learn, got in debt. But what I wanted to say, he was a worker. He was never seen idling away hours around town or station. If you saw him there, he was there on business. On Saturdays and wet days, when the majority of his race met at Carlisle, Santuc or Union to loaf he was at some work, often preparing wood to sell, or was selling around here or at Union. Up to the time he was taken sick he was almost always at work; then he was not able, but he was not seen away from home loafing. He seemed to have no taste for it. And all this is one reason why he made and saved something, and idling is why many of his race never make much, nor save anything. John WnAfla wUU ^ .. .hwiavivu wiui iivj I/IIC ? UUSiness. He had the white people's respect. This being an election year I guess many will be starting fires under the "political pots" that I have heard spoken of. It seems there is going to be the biggest crop of office seekers that we have had in some years. Wonder if it is because there will be more voters, the women. People are beginning to talk politics. Many are already talking of reforms, and no doubt some candidates will go to making some very pleasing promises (if they stick) and some may be called upon to give accounts of their stewardship, for people just will think they are tax-burdened, and they want to know where it all is going. It is no use to tell some, "Oh, you don't pay much," which mav be true, but he pays it in good faith, and wants to know. Yes, I guess reform would be a good thing. There ought to be principles as well as principals. I see that Governor Cooper is going to swap the governship for a farm loan board position with $6,300 to boot. It is a promition, financially, if not of as much honor. Ten thousand dollars is big pay. Seems most too] much for the work. I guess work as! governor of South Carolina is as much as work on that hoard. Then living cost more in Washington than in Columbia, some say, house rent is stupendous. But big salaries make cost of living high. But few there are, if any, who will sing, "Blest be the tie that binds." Hey Denver. Little smells of spirits. Little whifPs of hops, Attract the revenue agents And stimulate the cops. ?Book Hill Herald. Subscription* to $10,000 Cannery A rail ?or 20% or the suTwmptions to tno <ana< y has been mud*.

A Correction Under a Monarch headline of la Tuesday the Daily Union Times ca ried an article concerning the drow: ing of Douglas Johns in Hog Fo pond last Sunday. Mr. George Prue was the man finding the dead body a watery grave about 15 or 16 fe fiom the level water above. At th time Mr. John Moore came forwai and had already dived several tinv for the dead body, but without su cess. Here Mr. Moore, the hero < last Sunday's tragedy, went dow down and then still down and brougl Mr. John's body to the bank. In di' ing into the deep muddy water M Moore risked his own life, for th pond is full of cross ties and logs, ar being an eye witness to this s; scene, I feel I am due Mr. Moore ar his friends an apology for the omi sion of his name; and as he is a pe sonal friend of the writer and I b lieve a friend to everybody, I fe certain he will accept this correctic in the good spirit in which it is wri tn. Mr. Moore proved himself a tr? soldier and it was for that brother love he had for that broken-heart* father a right-thinking heart also his own body that prompted him 1 make this great sacrifice, and I co rect it with pleasure. onl/inr* 1? ? *-1 AuiMiniii^ jrv/Uf iUI. riUlWJI, iur 141 space, and asking you to be kir enough to carry this on your froi page, we are, Gratefully yours, C.
