WEDNESDAY, OC*?^B:B 2e Our Stat? (^i^^^P01^08 Old Tsrs&b in Council. Cof .T^t--?)"aocan, President of the SUte i^*>??tiiT?t and Mechanical So ?iet^? an article in the iVews and ' ' ter* proposes a new and original re for toe coming State Fair. He /proposes to bare during said occasion, say Wednesday/November 9tb, a meet? ing of the ord farmer's of the State, a delegation of three from each county, who have made farming their principal, business for forty years. He says : 'There will be mach food for valuable . thought suggested by the experience of the members of such & meeting. Take ?delegate who bas scored three-quar ? len of the present Century and bis life will have contained a large majority of the great inventions and improvements, not only tn agricultural, bot in all the arts and sciences of oar age. As an Il? lustration, when sach a delegate was boro Fulton's first steamboat was.- only Sve years old, aod a very undeveloped affair at that. It took at that time three months, and sometimes six, to cross the j Atlantic, and now a week is being con? sidered a tiresome journey. When this delegate was 12 years old the first iron plough was made and the farmers of that day shook their heads and said : .It won't do, too heavy *regular horse killers.* Now an old time wooden plough stock would be a genuine curios* ity. What an interesting exhibit a foll Hoe of agricultural tools and machinery used three-quarters of a century ago would make by the side of a well equip* ped farm of to-day.9 The idea of President Duncan is a good one. The experience of old farm? ers, who have made the farming, busi? ness a study for forty years, will be val? uable to the younger farmers of to-day. The review of the past, of agriculture and agricultural metnods, and ag ric al? tara! implements, when compared with the preseot methods now in use among progressive farmers, will show a great advance in favor of the farmer of to? day. But the old farmers cao doubtless make some valuable suggestions, aod point the way.to better methods. Col. Duncan suggests that the farmers of each County meet as -early as possible aod elect a delegation of three, and for? ward tbeir names to him at Union, giv? ing the poiot at which they will take .the- Railroads, The Railroads have agreed to give these delegates special rates. Booth Carolina's Legislature the Most Economical of AH. Charleston Sun, William Allen Butler, President of the American Bar Association, io his recent aooual address before that body, ou the means of lessening the evils of lyra irions aa? ill-regulated legisla? tion, pontt* out that in those legisla? tures where the passage of special hwav sask m those granting sod asaew?rng- charters of incorporation, ara allowed, the principal work of each wmmmtt?smse? to that kind cf legis? lation/ and he is quite right in con? cluding that 'even where constitutional restraints exist, this vice of special aod local legislation is still a crying evil.' He gives some tostaoces of - the ex? penses of the different legislative ses? sions. The lowest which he gives ts South Carolina, where the session was limited to thirty days aod where the cost was only $?2,000, and the greatest was Pennsylvania, with a session of one hundred and fifty-eight'days, costing the State $686.500. He concludes that the sum of $10,000.000 would not be a rash conjecture, as the price an? nually paid by the American people to carry on this badly managed busi? ness of law making/ Mr. Butler points out that, with a single exception af South Carolina, wh ere ao Act was passed having that end in view, chief? ly through the exertions of Mr. Edward McCrady, Jr., a member of the Amer? ican Bpr Association, the calendars were clogged with local work. He concludes by saying : * A few intelligent, unselfish aod fearless mem? bers of our professioo io each State Legislature could, by promoting judi? cious enactments which would com? mend themselves to all good citizens, very soon so reduce the volume of leg 'islation as to relieve the statute books from a mass of unnecessary laws, and the people from the burdeos they im? pose.' The Veterans Should be There. Greenville Ketcs. The Columbia Register suggests that j - s body of Confederate veterans be or- 11 ganized from the Sute to attend the on- !1 veiling of the monument to Robert E. j1 $?e, its Richmond, on the 27rb of j 1 Oci?ber. It is orged that South Caro- j ? fina, who furnished numberless hun? dreds of ber sons to Lee's army, sbouid be represented at the unveiling, and that none could more fittingly represent the State than the survivors of that army. The suggestion is good. Wade Hampton is Chief Marshal for the day, aod what more appropriate spectacle than a company of South Carolina vet? erans following the command of their bravest among Sooth Carolina's gene- j a rals to honor the immortal memory of u the grandest military figure of the age. b the general of the Confederacy ! Io bis j t life. Sooth Carolina honored him. and 11 rn his memory she delights to honor j e bim still. i v - Nobody can so faithfully offer the s State's meed of honor and praise at the j f foot of the monument of Lee as can the [ a s?en who fought under bim. j a The suggestion ought to be acted on. j o Though some have been found who j p could east slurs on the name of Jeffer- [ a BOO Davis, the liviog chieftain, there j s will be oo voice, we are sure, to be I ? raised against the o a me and fair and glorious fame of Robert E. Lee. A Short Lesson With a Big Moral. Barnwell People. The atteotioo of those editors who want somebody to be banged is respect- j b fully invited to the following extract -voss- a chapter of modern history io this State : William Hendricks, colored, was convicted of manslaughter at the March j term, 187$, in Pic kens county and Judge Mackey, who presided at his trial, sentenced him to sixteen years imprisonment in the penitentiary. ||p-*fc -w?b Governor Ricbardsoo par? l?s* td him, the fact of his innocence having been established. The killing ooeurred in a general row at a negro kati val. The crime waa laid upon Hendricks because be was a Democrat a Dd had worn a red shirt in 1876. Al? fred Arial, a mulatto, inflicted the blow that killed the man for whose death Hendricks was convicted. He confess? ed the crime to people of his own color and ran away. The secret has been kept ail this time and has only come to light after Hendricks Has spent nine of his best years in the service of the State. As a matter of simple justice he ought to be paid good wages for that time. Col. Mike Brown returned from his trip to the North on Saturday. During his absence he bought fifteen hundred ton of steel rails for the Blackville and Newberry Railroad, paying $78,000 in cold cash for them. They were shipped on Friday. As soon as they arrive Mr. J. H. Burchhalter will begin to lay track and before Christmas the iron borse will make his triumphant entry into Five Points. A Great Mistake. Darlington News. On Friday, November 4th, during the fair at Marion, there will be a joint discussion on the fair grounds between Mr. B. R Tillman and Chancellor Johnson, of the State Board of Agri? culture. Ta this instance the Chancel? lor, who generally occupies the correct position on every subject, is wrong. To argue a question with Mr. Tillmau ac? complishes nothing, and the dignified position for a State officer to occupy would be not to notice Mr. Tillman's unwarranted attacks. The great mis? take both with the press and the people is that too much notice is taken of bis demagogical harangues. In fact, if it bad not been for the News and Courier, be would not have been heard of after his address at Bennettsville two years ago. A Cotton Factory. Abbeville Medium. The Farmer s Clubs of this county would do a good thiog by establishing a cotton factory at this placee. The un? dertaking may seem too much at the first glance but it is entirely practicable. If every farmer would contribute ten dol? lars there would be such a beginning as to induce manufacturers of machinery to put in the necessary machines. The average estimate of cotton produced by a one-horse farm is eight bales. 'The price of cotton would be so advanced by having a factory here that the one-horse farmer could easily pay his subscription of tea dollars and not feel it in the course of the first year. The popula? tion of the town would be increased by a large number of operatives and all farm products would command a ready sale at higher prices. The increased profit on chickens alone would pay the ten dollar subscription in the course of a year. . Cotton factories have paid in every section of the State except in Charles? ton. They make money for the stock? holders and for the communities in which they are operated. Death on the Rail. Spartanburg Herald Oct. 21. Yesterday morning the city was thrown into a fever of anxiety and ex ?tement by the report of a terrible ac? cident to the East bound passenger train, near Greers. The train bore our Vi organ rifles and many of our citizens .eturning from the Exposition at At? an ta; Exaggerated and flying ru nors spread current on the streets. It vas reported that ten persons had been dl!ed outright and a hundred wound id. This was contradicted and a tele- j c 'ram stating that no one from Spartan- j v >urg had been hurt, allayed thc popu- j 5 ar anxiety. j e It seems that the West bound freight j ( bould have been side tracked at freers ; whose fault it was that this fas not done is not yet known. It lid not stop but went thundering out oto the darkness*. Two miles away it ras met by the heavy ^passenger train oosisting of seven coaches, mail car ind express. They rushed together rith terrible force. The engines were lompletely crushed ; the baggage and ?xpress cars were shivered ; fire sp-ead md three of the freight cars were burn? ed to the ground. The engineer and ?onductor of the freight, are missing, ind their dead bodies are not there. The engineer. Wall, of the passenger is lead and his fireman is reported dying. Mrs. McDowell, of Asheville, was in he baggage car, and was cut in two, md killed instantly. lier sister-in aw. Miss McDowell, had her ankle ? q >adly hurt. Four or five others were nore or less hurt, but their names can lot now be learned. Mr. Bony Chase, >f this place had a narrow escape. Ile ras in the -baggage car where Mrs. McDowell was killed and received an igly gash on the leg. The relief train | a rhich went out from this place this | t norning returned at two o'clock, and -> he dead and wounded of Asheville t rere carried op to their saddened \ tomes. The Condition of Things. Artdcrson Journal. No one will doubt that, in some res .ects, this country is in a bad fix. No ?ne can deny that if thc farmers would j f jive to their business the same kind of j t ,t ten ti on that manufactures and bank- ! t rs give to their?, their financial condi- j t ion might be. and would be. consider- I bly ameliorated. There needs to be i. nore system in almost every branch of ! usiness in thc South. Especially is | o his the case with our farming opera- ! f\ ious. We would not be severe, nor i *i ven harsh, in our criticisms, but j rould, if possible, do everything to ?i timulate our fanners to increased wateb- i ti illness in the management of rIi?-ir ! a ffairs. Doubtless there are some who ; n re ready to say such chat by an editor j n fa newspaper is presumption: News I J aper men can't help seeing things \.v round tbem. and must be pardoned i v oinetimes; at least, for a frank expr?s- i a ion of their opinions. ; vi Our first remark was made not with- ? H ut proper consideration. We know i tl bat factory men are always busy, al- li rays on the alert; we know further- j I? nore that a majority of ?i/c farmer* of j ft his country are not. Factory men, i t .ankers v?n? successful speculators watch ! heir business closely and have some- c hing to do ail the year round ; the T irmer is busy,?very busy while he is tl lantiog and cultivating his crop, and : t< sua?ly very busy while gathering it; h ut that done be has (takes) vacation j b ntil necessity forces him to the field si yr the purpose of planting again. c How many in this county plow their ii tnds before Christmas? Don't all tl ->eak at once. How many keep busy ii il the winter? Some do, others, and e y odds the majority, do not. This 11 ;ach wc have noticed: those moo who g stick closest to to their farms, who are most familiar with details, who can find something to do there any day in tb? year, are, as a rule, the most prosper ous and are numbered among the inde? pendent men of the land. Rail Road News. Johnson City Comet : Col. II. A Johnson, General Manager of the Three C's., in answering some inquiriei says, 'I am not desirous of having rn} communications published and do nol propose to write au)thing for that pur pose * Col. R. A." Johnson says the Thre< C's company are investigating the dif ferent. lines in a manner which thej deem best for the interest of the Com? pany, aud do not propose to depart fron their plan even on the advice of out siders. Track laving has commenced in earn est at Camden on the Three C's read anc ts being pushed as rapidly as silty mee and thirty cars will permit. Capt Ramsanr'8 engineer corps is making tht revisions between Rutberfordtoo and Marion, getting the line ready for thi contractor who will begin work at once He has been delayed on that work long' er than was expected but as soon as il is finished his corps will be sent to John? son City to locate the line north. Three months of good weather will complete all the grading between Black's and Camden, a distance of 103 miles. Camden Journal : The contractor whs is to lay the ties and rails on the Three C's R. R. is pushing right ahead with his work. The new fangled machine for laying track did not work satisfactorily, hence it was abandoned and the work has been done in the old way, by hand ; but it is quick work. We understand that they can average from one to one and one? half miles per day. They are now up in tho vicinity of Sanders creek. Ou yesterday Col. R. A. Johnson General Manager of the Three C's R. R. was before the Board of County Com? missioners and requested them to gc and examine the roadbed and see that it was completed in accordance with the provisions of the Act relative thereto, S? he intended to apply for the bonds at once. We understand that the request to examine the road was complied with, and it is probable that the bonds wi!] be issued. Col.. Johnson says that the road will certainly b? running through from Cam? den to Lancasterjpy the first of January next, and on to Yorkville very soon thereafter. He also says that thc road will be tn running order to Marion, N. C., by next Summer in time to take all thc Summer travelers to Asheville via the Western N. C R. R. (From oar Regular Correspondent.) WASHINGTON LETTER. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 21, 1887. . The chief event at the capital this week is the habeas corpus trial of the Virginia State officers before the United States Supreme Court, on ap? peal from the Court of Judge Bond, by whom they were summarily com? mited to prison for contempt. Of jourse the telegraph has already in? formed you of the action of the Su jreme Court, how, after being per tonally held in custody by that tnbu lal one day, thc prisoners wore re eased upon their own recognizance tiltil the final hearing of the case on he first Monday in November. Kos :pe Conkling and J. Randolph Tucker viii be counsel for the defendants and solicitor-General Jenks and Ex-Gov irnor Chamberlain will represent thc ?overnment. As the case is of tia ional importance, it will be watched villi interest throughout the whole ipuntry. 1 . Later in the week it is probable kat the case of the Chicago Anar hists will be taken up, as the prelim nary steps in that direction have al eady been ??ken. Next in interest to these procecd ngs is the meeting of the Agricultu al Congress-now in nession in this ity-composed of representatives of he agricultural colleges and experi? mental stations in the several States s provided for by thc Act of Con? fess of March 2, 18S7. It is the mrposc of the meeting to have a gen ral discussion of the best means of jiving practical effect to the provis? os and operations of the law in [iiestion-some of the subjects to be ?Onsidered being as follows : The general subject of experimental 6ta ions ; the object and scope of the vork to be done ; the most useful ex? periments and investigations, demand id by farmers in the different States md the practicability of adjusting hese experiments between the sev? eral stations so as to avoid duplica ion of work. No doubt the Congress viii result in great good. During the next session of Con? gress, the four Territories of Mouta? in; Dakota, New Mexico and Wash ngton will vigorously present and ness their claims for Statehood, and nany think the result will be thc ad niasion of all, while others believe hat no new Stale will bc admitted ill after the next Presidential elec ion lt is not at all probable that )akota Territory will be made a State ! fits division is insisted upon.
