SEMINOLE CASES IN COURT.
f
President Garlington and Associates
to be Tried in Columbia.
Columbia. September 11:?The
famous 'Seminole cases'' were
brought up officially in court yester- ,
day when Solicitor Cobb handed out
indictments, upon which the grand
jury afterwards returned "true hill"
in each case.The tirst charges against
John Y Carlingtou and James Stobo
Young "conspiracy, breach of trust
with fraudulent intentions and larceny.''
The second charges "conspiracy
and obtaining mouev and other
property by false pretense and rep re- sentations"
and the persons named
are: J no Y <! aldington, James Stobo
Young, C J llebert, Orville II llall,
C J Cooper and B W Lac v. It will
be observed that the names of M G
Jeanes and J II Teague do not appear
in the indictments, although their
names had heretofore been connected
with the case.
(larlington was president of the
Seminole Securities company, which
was organized avowedly to finance an
accident insurance company. J Stobo
Young is Garlingtons cousin and,
was secretary <>f the company. C .]
J I J
Hebert was an expert stock salesman
who negotiated a sale between the;
Sennnole company and the Southern
Life of Fayetteville, N C. C .) <
Cooper was president of that company
and B W Ijiiov was actnarv.

of indignation was caused by allegations
against the methods of (Jar I

The cases will probably be tried
at this term of court. Darlington is

His Beloved South.
In one of his speeches Editor Edward
Ward Carmack, who was most
cowardly assassinated in the streets
of Nashville, Tenn., by political
thugs, thus refers to his beloved
South, the land of his birth:
"The South is a land that has
known sorrows; it is a land that j
has broken the ashen crust and j
moistened it with its tears; a land ;
scarred and riven by the plowshare
of war and billowed with the graves j
of her dead; but a laud of legend, a ;
land of song, a land of hallowed and j
heroic memories. To that land1
I
Honey and Tar, and it stopped my
cough, and I am now entirely well,
and have gained twenty-eight pounds,
all due to the good results from taking
Foley's Honey and Tar."
D C Scott.
That Road Again.
! Editor County Recoid:?
I notice the statement of M M
; Powell of Harpers relative to the
public road from Uarton branch to
Harmony churcii. Mr Powell says
that I must have replied to his
, article with some evil intent. I assure
him such was not my purpose. Mrj
) .) Hrahum will testify to tliej
: fact that he let the contract for
working this road to the gentlemen f
named in my former article, with
the except ion of Johnson swamp,.
for which he sad he would let the
contract for building a bridge some
time later. Mr Powell in his card i
did not mention the excepted por- '
tion, which is in Johnson swamp,,
for a bridge to be built,
i Mr Powell positively denied Mr
j (iraham's exemption of this road
j and letting of contract, when the repairing
contract of til'- road referred
was completed and Mr (iralum
had promised to let the contract for
the building of a bridge across Johnson
swamp. Mr Powell should
have made his statement to that ef :
feet and not included tl..* entire road !
in his condemnation. Mr Powell!1
I I
surely will not deny tie* statement J;
tb.it the road has been woiked.
Vhen Mr W T Rowdl began 1
work on this road and summoned j
out those who had not paid road tax, (
Mr Powell was among the number,
who had not paid and lefused either
to work on the said road oi pay
his road tax. Mr Powell's case was
in the magistrate's court some days
ago. i
As to the working of the said
road, the expense was very small.
Mr Wheeler took the contract for
working the road from here to Harmony
church for only $1S, while Mr
Rowel 1 took the part to liar ton
branch for .$30. Except a small
piece in .lohnsoii swamp this road |
did not need much work, as it had
been worked very niceiy last year by
MrC W Camlin, of this vicinity.
The piece of road from here to Harmony
church was ploughed and
raked into the middle of the roadbed
which will make it a good
road for years, except as to tilling a
few holes. The portion of the road
from here to Barton branch was
also worked bv Mr Camlin, who
ditched ancMrained it and put the
road iuto go^| traveling conditionAll
the reptnr work needed this
year was grubbing, filling \p holes
and mending a few small bridges.
tf ED LOON.
Moody, September 13.
(This road controversy is fast becoming
boresome to the general '
public. If Mr Powell wants a re- <
ply we ask that he cut it short and
unless something new is injected
into the discussion it will be closed
so far as this newspaper is concerned?Editor
