COULETON’3 BANKS. We publish this week the last qnar tcrly stntement of OrHleton County's ♦wr> ban'r« as rtilled for by the Stete beak einuuncr. We would call the at tention of the citizens of the county to the splendid allowing made byttheee two ns. Tb«y arede*i>mnRof sup- \%at c.\Ui patronage by the j»eople of the county. We are aticklera for patronizing home industries, and we believe the iieople of (be county at Urge should patronize the hanks of the eonnty in preference to dietnnt banking institutions, if they can get ns good service and as much accom modehon. Our reason for this state ment is that if yunr money is depoeited at home, the banks use it and lend it at Hotuo a,id yon get the benefits derived from the prosperity attendant u]>on plenty of money in circulation. Wc * 1 ' y> reesntiy saw an advertisement of a Char lea ton bank which sail: ‘We lend oar money to Charleaton merchant a.” What good does money lent to Charles- O tea merchants do Colleton merchants and farmers? And some of that money Beat to Charleston merchants was de- posited by Colleton merchants in this ’Ohartestnn bank. It should have been depoaiUvl in Colleton banks and lent to QoDeton merchants and others. , How, isn’t this true’ Think of it. 1 act upon it. * AN IMPORTANT SUBJECT. We desire to call the attention of those wb© are in arrears for snbecriptions to The Press and btandard to the ioct t*.at we hare purchased these accounts along with the paper.- We are sure many of these accounts wonld bay* l»eon paid but have been crerloohed. We desire cell them to the ati mtior of t! who are delinquent and. oak for an early payment. Look at the label on ypur paper and yon will tee to when yonr aahacription has been paid. For in- -rtnnoe, if it rends “Aug. ’Oi” it means that you are in arrears for two years, and if you wish tu to continue ror- laiper tor another year yrn must leant ns IS Wn positively cannot cominne sending the papoi to those who do not raj for it, so if yon are in arrears and yonr paper stops coming a reasonable time niter this issue, do not blame the peat master, but lay the blame at your owb door. It takes time, labor and n»o«y to get out an issue of a paper, and if the person takes it out of the poetoflloe he la due jest as honest a debt a» if he go to'a store and bny a pound of coffee or bacon. A dollar a year is a small amount for each subscriber but it is a large amount when taken in the aggregate. We ex- peel to try to give yon a Hollar’s worth in xfUmrfeg-Mw dollar So look at yw label MiStf yon are in arrears pay •P> end the sooner tbs better. THE GREENWOOD LYNCH NINO. We pobtish elsewhere an account of a most dastardly and revolting crime and the always certain sequel to It in any Southern State. We are not advocates of lynok kw; we believe fto the ttujeety oftbo tew as carried out in legal {court s tegal forms. We are also of a higher and unwritten jkw wfck* proteste Iks phrity of oor ••A light porec Is • deary curse' r Slckoess r.iatcs a light patie.

Ah iOCg oa this ..time 1% committed or attempted in 80nth Carolina s»o long vnll the wretch who commits or at tempts to commit it be punished in the _ e tvi / r..c Oitcu- wood county There is no mistaking this fact: and we would not have it otherwise. Oovornor 1 eyward performed h brave an i noble act by attompung to stay the crowd of determined men. but it was a mistake we think, for him to go to the scone of the on* rage, tie reproattnls the majesty of tbf law and there is a cer tain dignity attached to bis political losition. He a bon Id not have placed that dignity where it wae sure to be trampled on by an infuriated, deter mined body of sober men. The r.ia rhinary of the law was at bis dis posal to be used to its fullest extent and could have tren used from his office at Columbia. *There are so many delays in the courts, so many technicalities to be ob served that justice aonietimeg moves with leaden heel oad this ifl why such bodies of men as the lynchers of Bob Davis are afraid to let their victims go. Bad he been tried his otteaoe would not have merited the death penalty. Im prisonment was all he could have been sentenced, and sometiraee erftninale are pardoned 1 There le a satisfaction to na, as well as to the body of men who were Bob Davis’ last tribunal, in the foot that he will never cgaui be able 10 at tempt to violate the purity of our womanhood.
