OVER FOUR HUNDRED FRAUDULENT VOTES. THE NAUSEATING SPECTACLE FUK NISHED KY CHARLESTON. "Hold and DU-flaut Attemptb" Were Made to I'ractice Rascality, and ehe Good People of a hat City Were Very Much Shocked. [The State.] Charleston. Sept. 10.-Bold and defiant attempts were made in the primary yesterday to practice fraud and in some instances the attempts were successful. There is a feeling of intense indignation among the better sentiment of the community and it is the opinon of all who favor honest elections that drastic meas res should be resorted to that hon esty in the future might be accom plished at the ballot boxes. Concerted efforts were made yes. day ts exclude Von Kolnitz watchers from the polls and it was not until Chairman Thayer went in person and overruled the objection of the managers to Von Kolnitz's watchers. Even then the authority of Mr. Thayer was disputed by certain managers, bat he .finally succeeded in establishing his rights. He told the managers that he was conducting the election and he was responsible for the conditions and that Von Kolnitz was entitled to have watch ers at the polls. ' REPEATING. There were many attempts at re peating and in many cases the at tempts were successful in spite of the vigilant watching. A well known politician said today that there must have been at least 400 fraudulent votes cast, many of them being cast under false names. H. K. Moore, a druggist, who lives in Ward 1. found that his vote had been stolen from him when he stopped at his precinct to vote for the candidates of his choice. The managers told him that a man giv ing his name as H K. Moore had voted early in the day and that he could not vote. Mr. Moore pro nounced the vote as a fraud and stated openly that he would pros ecute the man if he could learn his name. It is expected that the papers which are in the hands of the solici tor for prosecution of frauds at the first primary be reinforced by evi dence of fradulent attempts at the primary yesterday and that the solic itor will be urged to proceed against the violators vigorously. It is un derstood that the solicitor is satisfied that he has sufficient evidence to se ure indictments and is prepared to proceed.________ About Oats. Oats may be sown any time up to the middle of October with a reason able chance of their living through the winter. After talking with many farmers and reading much that has been written we believe the only way to provide against winter killing of oats is to prepare land well and put in the oats with the one-horse grain drill which leaves a high, sharp ridge between the.- rows. The oats are considerably below the surface. There is generally moisture enough to bring them up even in dry weather. The ridges protect them. The land instead of being lifted by frost ex pands horizontally leaving the bot tom of the furrow where the oats .are stationary. As the ground thaws and the rains come fine dirt sifts down amongst the oats which is equal to a working. About the first of April if the ridges are a little too high for a reaper or easy cradling run a light smoothing harrow diag onally across the rows. That will level the land and cultivate the oats. The Burt oat is the earliest. It should be sown in February on good land and it will be ready to cut the last of May. The Southern Red Rust Proof is the most prolific if sown in the fall. Of the later oats the Brown, the Turf, the Grazing, the White Winter and Virginia Grays are about equal. They all grow taller than the early varieties. The A ppler oat is highly commended in Georgia. Some farmers in this State have tried it, bnt we do not now much about it. A Word With the Farmers. Some years ago inquiries were sent out as to the best things wbich a farmer can attend to to make farm ing a pleasure and a profit. A. said: "Owner most live on his farm, plow deep, fertilize well, plant and sow early. Have good buildings for owner, tenant aLd laborer; sow one-fourth in grain, one-fourth in grass, one fourth in permanent pas ture, and one fourth in summer crops. Keep well posted." B. said: "Crop well planted is half made. Kill sprouts, plant grain in October; spread manure in December for spring crops." C. said: "Terrace hillsides, surface drain low lands; keep all the cattle you can winter, pen them every night and spread manure on the surface of your land. Rotate crops, cotton, corn, oats, then sow peas. Raise your supplies and your own stock, let your cotton be your money crop." D. said. "Let the negro emigrate; raise your farmers at home. Turn out old lands and cultivate well the remainder." E. said: "Be a Christian, keep out of debt; keep books with yourself, raise your own provisions, raise cot ton for money crop." F. said: "A place for everything, everything in its place; stop leaks, keep up repairs; keep ,all the stock that can be kept for milk, butter or beef. Give everything good atten tion on the farm." G. said: "Southern farmers should grow grain and grass; grow every thing that family and stock can eat. Manure crops well, but let commer cial fertilizers go. Do all you can . every year to improve your land by planting grass, peas, never sell any cotton seed." This is enough for one lesson and there is good hard sense all the way down from A. to G. You may have 9 good cotton crop, but if you can grow and sell butter, buttermilk, sweet milk, chickens, eggs, hams, sides, sausage, souse, lard, pigs, pork, strawberries, peaches, grapes, apples, pears, wheat, wheat straw, flour, potatoes, sweet and Irish roasting ears, butter beans, snap beans, turnips, onions, squashes, car rots, cabbage and stove wood, you will find your small crop is ahead of the big cotton crop, that is, if you work high-priced free laior, and worry with their absences and hin drances. The secret of good farming is to be in time and do the work well. Plant early and work it well before weeks and grass get a start By sowing rye, t,arley and grasses at the proper time, to furnish winter pastures, as fine stock can be kept and raised in Georgia as anything in the country, and when we remem ber the long, severe, cold winters of the north and west, it seems a pity that Southern farmers do not appre iate the value of our climate -At lanta Journal.
