DAMNATION FROM DEAS? State Republican Leader Discusses Roose? velt's Administration-He Declares it the Dirtiest and Rottenest that Ever Was. CHABUBSTON, S. C., June 29.-E. H. Deas, toe leading negro republi? can of South Carolina, bas prepared for publication a vicious attack upon President Roosevelt's administra? tion of party affairs in this State. Just after the Ohio convention was held Deas, by request, arraigned the national republican administration in The New York World. He said, among other things, tha t it was the dirtiest and rottenest administration that has ever disgraced this section, and the statement that he has jast given oat tor publication is put forth with a view of substantiating this charge. In it Deas attacks with .great bit? terness United States District Attor? ney John G. Capers and Collector of internal Revenue Micah Jenkins. ?j' Both of these men were formerly democrats and were appointed to office as.republicans. Capers bolted Bryan and stumped for McKinley, while Jenkins was a major under Roosevelt in the Rough Riders. Capers is a son of Bishop Ellison Capers, of South Carolina, and Jen? kins is a son of the Confederate gen? eral of the same name. Deas charges that Capers was present at the lynch? ing of Thompson and Preston, at Gaston, J eily SO, 1893, and that he ' was indicted.for pension fraud in the same year, but the matter was drop? ped for some reason never explained ; that he was not a resident of the State when appointed United. States district attorney jof South Carolina; that h? swore he voted for McKin? ley and yet the records of the town of Maryland, in which he resided, fail to show any such record. Of Jenkins, Deas says he is such a personal favorite of Presideut Roose? velt tbat-ifc is impossible to' get an investigation of ch urges against him and his department. When such charges-have~beec~ preferred. Deas says, they are referred to Jenkins himself, tie reports favorably to him? self and the'matter is dropped. The statement made by Deas is a long one and is replete with the most violent language, denunciatory ef Roosevelt, Capers, Jenkins and the republican administration of affairs in South Carolina. Deas was formerly national republican com? mitteeman from the State, and is now chairman of the "black-and tan" organization. He was a candi? date for coilector of internal revenue, and is popularly styled by his ad? herents as'"Deas, the Duke of Dar? lington." CRUM ADVOCATES LYNCHING. The Colored Collector of Charleston Creates Sensation in Chicago. A special dispatch from Chicago to the Atlanta Constitution says: "Collector W. D. Cram, of Char lesion, S. C., has shocked his fellow negroes by advocating lynching. At a meeting to-night he said: "Lynchings savor of the barbarism of the dark ages, but we must think of the crimes that provoke them. These crimes are so atrocious that 510 punishment is too severe for them. "Lynching is not a race problem,V ?aid Dr. Crum. "There is no north or south, but the form of unlawful punishment is generally all over the .country. The most horrible lynch? ing which ever took place in this .countreoccurred in Delaware only ?afew days ago. Such punishments savor bf the barbarisms of the dark ages, but we must consider the crimes that provoke them. They are so atrocious that no punishment is too severe. "Too many persons denounce lynchings withou ; considering their cause. lithe law was quick and decisive there would be fewer lynch? ings. **Tbe remedy is to exterminate the horrible wretches who commit the climes-not by killing them, but by teaching them better." Good Roads Conyentlon, July 25th, 1903. The above Convention will meet at Sumter on above date at ll -o'clock in the forenoon. The citi? zens of this and adjoining counties, and the public at l:?r?e are respect? fully invited to attend. The desire is to arouse the people as a whole to the great necessity for, and bene? fit arising from having good roads and highways all over our county. Respectfully, Wm. H.

Stuckey . .In the course of his speech in be? half of murderer Jim Tillman, ask? ing for a change of venue, a lawyer named Buchanan, said to be a judge, is credited with this language: "The press is a cowardly institution, and there is not a man in the court room who does not pay deference to any little $8 a week scribbler." If the circumstances warranted the asser? tion this man has indeed paid a high tribute to a poorly paid profession, or pat a low estimate on the charac? ter of those who were in the court ho?se, including himself. If he was wrong he has established a reputa? tion for veracity second only to the distinguished criminal he represents. In either case it is a deplorable state of affairs. But the truth is that Buchanan deviated from the horizon? tal bar of rectitude in order to prej? udice his hearers and the court. He did the scuttle-fish act-muddled the water in order to keep others from seeing what a bad case he had. But it will not work. As sure as a just God reigns supreme, so sure will Jim Tillman be made to pay the penalty of his crime, unless he buys the jury, and we do not believe enough Lexingtonians can be pur? chased to acquit him.-Gaffney Ledger.

Ain't it a shame?-Angus- i .erald. ; THE COTTON CROP OF 1903. New Orleans Brown, the Leader of the Bal! Movement. _ 6ITES HIS VIEW Of THE SITUATION Says Price Has Not been Driven Up by Artificia! Means-In? crease of Manufacturing. Baltimore, July 2.-The Manufac j fairers5 Record published this week a j dispatch from its correspondent at New Orleans containing an interview j with W. P Brown, the leader of the great bnll movement in cotton, in which Mr. Brown talks as follows, about cotton prospects : This is not a matter of [speculation. We*are merchants of cotton and have been for a good many years. I have been a bull on cotton ever since it was selling at ?yz cents. Cotton has sim? ply gone up in common with other values. Whe~ cotton sold at 4*^ cents other things were low. Iron has gone from $8 a ton to as much as $26 in this period and iron is not subject to drought or to boll weoviL All you have to do is to dig the ore from the ground and turn it into pig iron. Cotton is selling at its present price because it is statistically worth it. Last fall ? predicted that this crop would be about 10,750,000 bales, and it is being demonstrated that my predic? tion was about right. The require? ments of trade are very much more than that. Conditions entirely war? rant present prices, for cotton has never failed to sell around present prices with the statistical condition anything like as strong as the present one. There is not only a famine in cotton, but there isa famine in dry goods now. If the mills shut down, of course that will add very much to the present scarcity of dry goods sup? plies. Although manufacturers and jobbers of, dry goads - complain that they can't sell goods on the present basis of raw material, this will even? tually regulate itself. Consumers must pay the prices or go without the goods, and we know they won't do that. Trade all over the world was scarcely ever better and the consum? ing world is in condition to pay high prices. It is a mistaken idea that cotton has been forced to present prices. A legitimate demand and the strong statistical position have put prices where they are. If this were not the case I wouldn't be bulling cot? ton at present prices ; in other words, if prices had been forced up, and the actual stuff could not be sold at pre? sent I would say that cotton was dangerously high. "As to the new crop, it is exceeding? ly late. This adds very much to an already strong situation, as we cannot expect much new cotton now until late in September. As to the size of the new crop, it is entirely too early to say much, though we know a late crop is subject to a great many more neces? sities than any early one. For inst? ance, there are three things that could make this crop a failure, a great deal of rain during the next few weeks; or a severe drought during July and August; or an early frost. On the other hand, if none of these things happen and we have perfect conditions - ali the way through and a very late fall, we might make an average crop. But it is easily to be seen that the odds are against this year's crop turn? ing out an average one and the world needs a big crop, a very big crop. Eleven and a half million to twelve million bales would not be any too much. In fact, with a crop of not over 11,500,000 bales, I think prices will range high all during next sea? son. The whole truth of the matter is, consumption has overtaken production and there is not much of either raw material or manufactured goods on hand." In spite of the temporary effects of high priced cotton southern capital and capital from other parts of the country are finding steady investmet in southern textile enterprises, the ad? ditions to established mills as for some time passed exceeding the investments in new mills. Reviewing the second quarter of the year, The Manufactur? ers Record says that while there were no especially large individual enter? prises announced, several $500,000 companies were organized with all the required capital secured. During the three months 18 new mill companies were organized with "a total of 119,500 spindles and 2,840.1ooms to be install? ed, indicating an expenditure of about $2,390,000, and 19 established mills announced their intention to add 172 554 spindles and 2,359 looms, indicat? ing an expenditure of about $3,450,000 The total of additions is 292,054 spin? dles and 5,199 looms, requiring an ex? penditure of about $5,840,000. Of the additions Georgia is to- have 95,112 spindles, South Carolina 95,000, North Carolina 78,942, Alabama 18,000 and Virginia 5,000. During the first half of the year there was a notable activity in organ? izing companies for the erection of oil mills. According to The Manufactur? ers' Record the new capital invested in this industry during the past six months is greater than the whole capital represented in cotton oil mills in 18S0 In that year the south had 40 oil mills with a capital of $3,500,000. During the past six months 94 new companies were organiged to build mills at an es? timated cost of $3,675,000. In this movement the greatest activity was in Arkansas wnere 17 new companies were formed with a totai capitaliza? tion^ $1,170,000. Mississppi was se? cond with 15 companies capitalized at $665,000, South Carolina, Tennes? see, Georgia,- Louisana, Texas, Ala? bama, North Carolina, Indian Terri? tory and Oklahoma following in the order named as to the amount of cap? ital invested. It is a pity for some of the parties interested that Mr. Ossy Buchanan could not be judge instead of attor? ney in the case of the State vs. J. H. Tillman. The supreme court once said of one of Ossy's rulings, "How the court beiow could so find with? out one particle of evidence to sus? tain that finding is beyond our com? prehension." With a recommenda? tion like this, Ossy would suit the occasion splendidly. In his own im? mortal words, slightly paraphrased, "By grab?;, I'd make the most of it." -Yorkville Enquirer. MAGNOLIA NEWS BUDGET. Crop Prospects and Other Matters Noted by Our Correspondent. Magnolia, July 2.-The outlook for an average corn crop, in this section, is by no means encouraging, though there is some improvement in this crop. On some farms I notice a rapid improvement in the cotton crop, while on others where the land is sandy or rolling, there is very little to en? courage the belief that more than a half of an average crop will be made. With the harvesting of the oat crop, which was much better than -anyone had any idea it would be, the wet spell opened up, which greatly dam? aged the oats before they could be housed. A very small per cent, of this crop was saved in a first class condition. We have had nearly three weeks of fine weather for farm work, and the farmers are making good use of it. Willing laborers are growing scarce, and, as a general thing, contrary. Another year it may be quite differ? ent. This little lien business is, in fact, responsible for it. A warrant was issned by the magis? trate here, ten days ago, for the ap? prehension of one Singleton, colored, for attempting to and nearly taking the life of one Simon Davis, colored, by striking him a heavy blow with a handstick. Singleton is hiding out. - Very little business will be done here on the 4th instant, and that day will be more generally observed as a holiday. Nearly all the stores will be closed in this place. I hear of no special amusements in this neighbor? hood. How few, comparatively speaking, will know or care for the event which we are celebrating on that day. Ask numbers why they celebrate that day, and they will answer readily, "'Cause it's the 4th of July," and this is all th&y know. Mr. Henry Hickson, after several days' visit to his father, Mr. J. A. Hickson, has returned to Lake City. Hon. Thos. G. McLeod, now of Bishopville, spent- several days here recently, returning to his home yes? terday. The W. J. McLeod Co. is repainting their store in this place, which will much improve its looks. This firm is also building a large warehouse in rear of their store. Drs. Darby and Tennant report all their patients as doing well. The pupils of our Graded School after several months' close application seem to be enjoying vacation. Messrs. Gordon Griffin, Jno. T. McIntosh, Jr. and Ernest McIntosh will go to the mountains the middle of this month. ?? Our railroad agent, Mr. House, and wife will leave for North Caralina on a four weeks' stay in a day or two. We wish them a pleasant trip and a safe return. CoL J. A. Rhame will spend the Fourth in Columbia, he states. The tobacco warehouses in Tim monsville will not be opened until the 1st of August, which is disappointing and inconveniencing to those of our tobacco growers who need the money to aid them through. The trick seems very apparent. Several of our farmers around here are smiling (?) over their dwarf or "bantom" cotton, but are afraid they will loose the seed, as the plant is ex? ceedingly delicate and of a yellowish or reddish tinge-really very pretty. The bumblebees had better call a convention in time to make other ar? rangements-for THE PAY OF SOLDIERS. How the Militia Will be Paid During En? campment-Privates to Receive 43 Cents a Day, and Brigadier Gen- * eral's $15.28-Pay for Five Days. The militia of the State is greatly interested in the pay they will re? ceive during the encampment of July and August. As has been stated, the officers and men will be paid for five days, and in addition be provided with food and shelter, or receive a ration allowance, dur? ing that time, and mileage. The fol? lowing is the scale of pay for each day: Brigadier general.$15.28 Colonel .9.72 Lieutenant colonel.8 33 Major.6.94 Captain.500 First lieutenant.4.17 Second lieutenant.3.89 First sergeant.83 Other sergeants.,60 Corporals.50 Privates.43 The chief musician in drum corps receives $2 per day and the other members according to their rank, which is the same as in the infantry and cavalry. A Fool Of Himself.; When we consider that Judge Buchanan was for a long time a prac? ticing attorney, that he was once a presiding judge and that heran for various offices in South Carolina, during the campaign meetings and talking with a good many intelligent men, it is hard to conceive of how he can, in common parlance, make such a fool of himself as he did be? fore th? court in Columbia the other day. Of course, he is worried, and this in part excuses him, but still, to employ our figure of speech again, he did make such an awful fool of himself.-Spartanburg Herald. The fact begins to appear that Tillman is in a close place and has ceased his confident assertions of ac? quittal and abandoned his defiant attitude. The people of South Caro? lina, diverted from-all political as? pects of the case, are now calmly considering the act of the accused man as they would if he were an or? dinary murderer, and the result, j there now appears to be reason toi hope, will be that justice will be \ done and the laws of the State vin? dicated. It matters little what the decisiou of the court may be on the question of a chatige of venue, pro? vided the case be not removed to a locality of tlie murderer's own selec- ? tion. We believe the temper of the j people of the state is now unquali- j fiedly for equal and exact justice, I even though the accused be a Till- ! man.-Chattanooga Times. A FORGOTTEN POET. For The Item. In searching for information in re? gard to a little matter of history, I came across the enclosed lines, which impressed me as being so beautiful that 1 showed them to a few friends, one of whom asked me to have them published by our local press. The authorship of these lines is at? tributed to Charles Clinton ; born in Ireland 1690, emigrated to America 1729; settled first in Massachusetts and afterwards moved to New York, in which State lie died in 1773 in the 83d year of his age-when Robert Burns was yet a boy, and probably before"Mary in Heaven'.' was ever dreamed of. I do not find Charles Clinton's name even mentioned in any history of American literature to which I have had access ; but the biographer of De Witt Clinton, in his sketch of the Clinton Family, tells that "He some? times also courted the muses," and gives us the following quotation from De Witt's " Common-place-Book. " (See Campbell's Life of D. W. C., p. xiii) : LINES. "Written by my Grandfather Charles Clinton, and spoken over the grave of a dear departed sister, who had often nursed and taken care of him in his younger days. ' ' Oh canst* ' thou know, thou dear de? parted shade. The mighty sorrows that my soul in? vade ; Whilst o'er thy mouldering frame I mourning stand, And view thy grave far from^thy na? tive land? With thee my tender years were early trained, Oft have thy friendly arms my weight sustained ; And when with childish fears or pains oppressed, You with soft music lull'd my soul to rest." It seems to me that the author of such lines deserves a place in the his? tory of literature and that his other works should be rescued from obliv? ion and given to the public, if it is not already too late. Thos. E. Richardson. Sumter, S. C., June 30, 1903. KATHRYN OSTERMAN. Will Star Next Session in "Miss Petti? coats." Kathryn Osterman's new play "Miss Petticoats' ' is a story of rare fascina? tion, with rather more than the aver? age of enlivening incident. It is the history of a mill girl who becomes a Countess. The first three acts, occur in New Bedford, Mass, a city of mills, and the last two in New York, the city of millions. As a first step lead? ing to her development Agatha Renier -she is the girl of the title-stops a pair of runaway horses at the risk of her life. The team has been purposely frightened by Agatha's mill mates, angry at a reduction in wages. Be? hind the horses rides the woman who is a part owner of the factory. This is Mrs. Copeland, and she practically adopts, under the pretense of employ? ing her as secretary, the girl who has saved her life and also caught her heart's fancy. Manager Ryttenberg has booked Miss Osterman at the Academy of Music for the coming season. She will appear with her strong supporting company in only a few cities in this State, and Sumter theatre goers will be privileged to enjoy one of the theatrical treats of the season. YOU'VE BEEN THERE ! By F. P. B-. 'Twas "Central" who on your busy day, Called, "Number, please," to earn her pay. On the board, in numbers small, The figures fall at anyone's call. An editor to his 'phone did rush, Among his staff there was a hush. Said he, "Will yon ring up once more, For four-eleven-forty-four?" "What number did you want, please?" Replied "Central," as calmly as sum? mer seas. Said he, "I told you twice before It's four-eleven-forty-four!" Said " Central, " and you could hear her smile, "Hold your 'phone, please, a little while." Five, seven, ten minutes passed along, And the editor, he said, "D-og-gone. " Again the bell he wildly rung, And back again from the sugared tongue : " What number are you waiting for?" The editor responded with a roar : "I want four-eleven-forty-four.'\ (If 1 only had you here now!") Calmly "Central's" voice replied: "They're busy now." , The editor wildly rolled his eye. And the Devil from the room did fly, But he only sadly shook his head, And this is what he weakly said : "Of all the words of tongue or pen, The d-dest are, 'Busy, call again.' " Crop Situation Around Goodwill. Goodwill, July 1-The first, second and fourth weeks of June were unus? ually wet and farmers have had to put up a stiff fight to keep grass from overrunning crops. Bad as it has been however, it is not quite as bad as it was two weeks ago. Cotton is three to four weeks late ahd some of it five or six weeks late, but a few more clear hot days will put it in good condition. There are no blooms yet and not like? ly * to be before July 4th. Corn is still being planted on stubble land, and if seasons are at all favorable from now to October, there will be no western corn sold in this section an? other year. The old corn is all laid by, and young corn growing nicely. Peas everywhere, or will be by the end of the week, make the outlook more hopeful than for some time. E. W. D. Two Hundred Dead. Hanna, Wyo., July 2-Of the 234 men entombed by the mine explosion on Tuesday the bodies of only five have been recovered and all hope that any others aro alive has been abandon? ed.

Warm Words of Praise for the Abie Young Educator. To the Editor of the State : The selection of Prof. S. H. Ed? munds as president of thc State Teachers' association was a merited compliment to one of the best young educators of South Carolina. Prof. Edmunds is a young man, full of energy and thoroughly devoted to his high calling. For several years he has been superintendent of the Sum? ter Graded Schools, which he has managed most successfully. Having been a frequent visitor at the white Graded School, we have had excellent opportunities to observe Prof. Ed? munds' work and we have been struck with the marked affection and re? spect the pupils have for him. We confidently expect yet to see Prof. Edmunds president of some lead? ing southern college. McDonald Furman. Privateer, Sumter Co., June 30. Local Weather Record for June. An unusual amount of rain fell dur? ing the month of June in and around Sumter, in fact the fall was over double the quantity which might be expected for the season. Rain fell 19 days out of the 30, and nine out of these was accompanied by electric storms, and in one instance by hail, not severe enough, however, to create injury to the crops. The heaviest fall was on the 6th inst., amounting to 2.76 inches, and the total for the month reached 14.33 inches. The temperature for the month was below normal and the average of nights unusually cool. The mean maximum 87.8, the mean minimum 64.7. The highest was 94 degrees on the 30th, and the lowest 51 degrees on the 13th. The greatest daily range was 34 degrees on the 17th. The month as a unit was not at all favorable for cotton, tobacco or corn, and should the month of July prove dry, the result will be most disastrous to the farming interests. F.
