DEATH OF MR. AZ HORN.
He Wan h Gallant Confetlerare Veteran ami
a Good Farmer—lluried at Gilead Cluireli
—Preparation* for a Children'* l>ay at
Salem—New Flat at Pinckney Ferry.
ICorrespondence of The Leoger-J
Etta Jank, July 30 —Great prepa
rations are being made for a chil
dren’s day at Halem tomorrow, a fuli
report of which we hope to give our
readers next week.
In looking over the crops we see
but little actual damage done the cot
ton by the recent dry spell and hot
winos.
We regret to say that Mr Az Horn
died one day last week. He was
buried at Gilead church. Mr. Horn
was a member of Capt. Boyd’s com
pany F 15th Regiment, South Caro
lina volunteers, during the war. The
cause of his death we Jearn was a
general breaking down of the physi
cal man At one time he was a man
of great physical strength and cour
age and was well capacitated o p< r-
form the duties of a soldier or a
farmer.
In looking over the list of Con
federate veterans we are often struck
with the fine specimens of manhood
it presented, and in this Capiain
Boyd’s company was no exceoti' U to
the rule.
Mr. R C Thompson and his son.
Willie, passed here yesterday on
their way home from their planta
tion n Chester county. Mr. Thomp
son is one our old army comrades
and we but voice the sentiment of
every man who knows him when we
say there is not a better man living
than “Dick” Thompson. His eye
sight has failed him and he has our
sympathy. He married ot e of our
neighbor girls, Miss .Mahala Gailtnsn
a daughter of the late Daniel (jail-
man, and she too is one of Cherokee
county’s best ladies
Our thanks are due Master Archie
Sparks, of Clifton, for a present in
the shape of a fine teacher’s Bible
with large print and profuse margi
nal references. Archie is one of

On the York siue of ii iwei; (err>
Mr. Thomas Wilkinson is building a
new flat for Pinckney ferry and will
launch it at any day.
The ruin came last Sabbath in
gentle showers and continued to fail
until there is a fair Saaron in the
ground, and crops, especially young
corn, is showing the effect of it
That the dry hot winds of which we
have had so much this season has
done much damage to cotton in
piaces is more or Jess apparent,
though the cotton still promises a
yield far above the average If noth
ing happens to it, and anything lik ■
fair prices are realized it will greatly
relieve the situation of the farmers
of this country financially. As much
as it is talked about we verily be
lieve there is nothing so poorly un
derstood as the cotton problem
For what they are worth we give the
figures of the Richmond, Ya.. Dis
patch in answer to the following
question :
How many bales of cotton were
grown per >Par and prices paid, be
ginning with 1870, taking middling
as a basis?
Here are the figures in hundreds of
thousand ba'es ai d ( yt-n cer is p* j r
poo- -1: 31, 24; Is?! 13 17;
1872, 21) 22; 1873, 30 20; 1871. 41
18; 1875 38 15; 1876, 17 13; 1877.
45, J 2; 1878 48 11 ; 1870, 51. 11;
1880, 58, 12; 1881 0t>, 12; 1882 54,
12; 1883, 70, 12; 18S1, 57, 11; 1885,
57, 10; 1880, 05 0; 1887. 05, 10;
1888,70, 10; 1880, 70, 11; 1800 73
11; 1801, 87 0; 1802, 00. 8; 1803, 07
9; 1804, 75 7; 1895, 00 7; 1800 72
8; 1807 88 7; 1808 112, 0; 1890,
112 7; 1000, 94, 0; 1001, 104, 9.
From these figures (which no
doubt are as nearly correct as they
can^be made) it takes no mathemati
cal genius to understand how a large
cotton crop ruins tlu- price of it, and
hurts rather than helps the farming
classes.
Here’s a problem which some of
our readers will please wotk out and
give The Ledger the answer:
When lirst the marrlatte knot was ti< <J,
Between my wile a <1 me,
My axe did tiers as far exceed
As three times three doth three;
But when we ten and half ten yi ars had
married been.
Uer axe came as near to mine as eight
doth to sixteen.
1 desire that you will unto me say,
What our ages were on that wedd rijr day.
The thanks of Salem Sunday
School are due The Ledger for nice
badges furnished it for Children’s
day.
A report circulated that one of
Mr. Tom McKown s boys was in the
Texas penitentiary is denied by
Searcy Baker the super.ntendeot of
that institulion. He says, "There is
no such a man here and hasn’t been
for two years. I have searched the
record*. If be is here he is under
•ome other name.” Mr. McKown
Dtoved from York county to Texas
about teo years ago.
Notwithstanding the many charges
brought against him it was u very
forceful expression of Col, Jim Till
man at Chester last Saturday when
he said: ‘‘They may crucify me on
the cross of slander, but God in
Heaven knows St is as unjustifiable
as when they pinioned to the cross
the lowly Nazarine.”

'Ibis is a sweeping statement, ^
but it is true. There are rome ?
merchants in this community T
v/hose experience apparently f
contradicts ti.e statement. ▼
The contradiction, however, 9
# is only apparent. If they have ^
6 attai. ed any degree of success
they have advertised. They have ^
let people know what they had to A
sell, wi.ai they w- re here for and ^
what they proposed to do. Jest ^
in proportion to the thorough-
ness with which they have done •
this and met the conditions of V
T their competitors they have sue- V
$ ceeded. ^
^ If they have used the newspa- M
pers they have worked with the Q
best tools so far as getting pub- q
licity is concerned. If they have p
worked without the newspapers p
they have been handicapped and p
hrve not attained the highest ^
possible measure of success. £
