PRICE OF BREAD UNCHANGED.
Local Bakers Say That They Will not
Make Change from Five Cents a
Loaf.
Of great interest to householder* of
Sumter is the announcement of the
local bakers that the price of bread
will remain unchanged for the pres?
ent, despite the increase of one cent
a loaf made in other towns and cities
of the South, and that bread will con?
tinue to sell for live cents a loaf, as
heretofore.
The New York Bakery stated that
they would not make a change at the
present time; the F. B. Grler Moijel
Bakery stated that for the present no
increase would be made; T. B. Rey?
nolds stated that he would make no
change in price at present, but if the
price of flour continued to rise as it
had been doing, that something would
have to be done about it in the near
future. Announcement to this ef?
fect will be received with interest by
Sumter people, who eat the bread
from the Sumter bakeries and who
would have to pay the *xtr cent ?
loaf. If it was annexed to the. cost of
the bread.

Chamber of Commerce Endorses
Sclienie to Tax Abutting Propcrt)
for Paving Streets and Sidewalks.
At a meeting of the directors Of
the Sumter Chamber of Commerce
held Monday afternoon the abutting
property taxation plan for paving the
street and sidewalks in Sumter was
heartily endorsed by the directors,
and the managing secretary was in?
structed to inform City Council that
the officers and directors of the com?
mercial organization will give to City
Council their full cooperation, and as
far as the directors are able, the
working cooperation of the entire
membership of the Chamber of Com?
merce in putting into operation at the
earliest possible date the street and
sidewalk improvements, (sidewalks
especially) under the authority re?
cently vested in the voters and prop?
erty owners of Sumter by constitution?
al amendments and statutory powers
conferred on City Council to increase
the bonded indebtedness of this city
for the improvements needed.
The directors of the Chamber of
Commerce take the position that the
year 1915 is perhaps the most auspic
ous and advantageous time that could
possibly be selected to make improve?
ments In the streets and sidewalks of i
Sumter for the reason that the work
can be done a great deal cheaper by
virtue of the abundance of labor, and
because labor will be cheaper, as
well as material. Hundreds of labor?
ers will be furnished employment and
hundreds are needing now and will
need work later on.
Thousands of dollars will be put
into circulation by the money expend?
ed for the improvements which will
help all classes of people and all lines
of business. The laborers will be as?
sisted during a critical period of de?
pression and many kept with their
families from actual want. The fur?
nishing of work for hundreds of la?
borers lessens greatly the burden of
charity which is necessarily dispensed,
and works a hardship on those who
are fortunate enough to have of this
world's goods to give to the needy,
this great amount of money to be turn?
ed loose for legitimate work decreas?
es the menace of vagrancy, and fur?
nishes tenants for houses, and mon?
ey to be spent in various ways dur?
ing the impending crisis due to the
European war.
Many thousands of dollars will be j
saved in the c ' 'd* the municipal im
proventente which will mean a big
saving to taxpayers if the work is dot b
while labor and material can be se?
cured at reasonable prices.
Under the abutting property tax?
ation plan there is nothing arbitrary
about the contemnlated street im?
provements, as the property owners
who want their streets or sidewalks
paved have the whole say so. If a
majority of the property owners on a
street, or portion of a street petition
the city authorities to pave their
street the council must arrange to do
so, the property owners paying
one-third on one side of the street,
the property owners on the opposite
side paying one-third, pro rata in pro?
portion to the number of square feet
in front of each piece of property, and
the city paying one-third.
Twenty, thirty, or even forty year
municipal bonds, as later decided up?
on, will be issued, and one-twentieth,
one-thirtieth, or one-fortieth of each
property owner's pro rata share will
be payable annually until the bonds
are taken up.
The fact that City Council, with
Mayor Jennings taking the lead, ini?
tiated the movement for the abutting
property taxation plan which was ap
i proved at a mass meeting of the Sum?
ter taxpayers unanimously before the
! matter was submitted to the legisla
ture, and subsequently to the voters of
the State, at large, for constitutional
authority, is an indication that the
abutting property plan of improve?
ment is a business-like method of
procedure as the members of City
Council are all well known and suc?
cessful business men. large property
owners and taxpayers, and men who
would not offer anything not of legi?
timate and equitable value to their
constituents and fellow citizens.
As soon as City Council orders the
special election to ratify the plan ar?
rangements will bo made to place the
details of the plan before the voters
so that they may vote intelligently
upon all phases Of the proposition.

Dismissed.
From Tl. ' Daily Item, Feb. 9.
The Court of General Sessions for
Sumter County has made good prog?
ress since it convened Monday and af?
ter it got down to business. A fea?
ture of the court was the trial today
of Alma Washington, a ten year old
colored boy, for the murder of Pres?
ton Stewart, a thirteen year old j
school mate, on the fifth of January
of 1914, when Alma was only nine
years old, according to the statement
of his father, Alma Washington, Sr.
The Washington murder case was
still in progress when court recessed
for dinner with Messrs Jennings and
Harby defending the negro boy, and
J. H. Clifton assisting Solicitor Stoll in

count of the difficulty between the two
boys was told in two versions by his
school mates when they were put on
the witness stand. One version, that
of the State's witnesses, was that
Alma had borrowed a pencil from
Press and refused to return it, say?
ing that he would kill Press first. It
was stated according to their testi?
mony that Press kept on asking Alma
for his pencil, when Alma stabbed
him. The other account was that
Alma found the pencil and after
Preston had twice disclaimed it as
being his, Preston knocked Alma
down ~..d struck him several times
and then drew a knife on him when
Alma stabbed him.

From The Daily Item, Feb. 10.
The Court of General Sessions has
been making good headway yesterday
and today, several cases having been
disposed, of others being in a lair way
of being completed during the week.
Court will adjourn at the end of the
present week and there will be no se
| cond week of court. The grand jury
' finished its business this morning and
was dismissed after it had made its
presentment and appointed commit?
tees to examine the various county
offices.
Two murder cases are set for this
afternoon and tomorrow. These are
the cases of Budden Davis, who in
March, 1012, is alleged to have killed
another negro boy with a Coca-Cola
I bottle, and that against Rachel Potts,
j who is alleged to have shot another
i negro, Marion Nelson, at his home
early one morning about a month ago.
( indicting fatal wounds.
In the case against Rachel Potts
ithe court appointed Messrs. Arthur S.
Harby and R. <>. Purdy, Jr.. to defend
the case.
A case of considerable interest
which was completed this morning
; was that against J. C. Rogers of Pri?
vateer, who was charged with assault
and battery with intent to kill. The
jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
Hogers and a man living on his place,
Screven Dees, became engaged In al?
tercation concerning the ginning of
some cotton. During the light Rogers
shot Dees in the forehead, the ball
going through part of the brain. Dees
survived the wound and was the chief
witness against Hogers in the trial.
The custf ugainsl John Tucker, u
negro boy who shot one of the best
bloodhuonds owned by the State in the
Wateree swamp on last Thanksgiving
Day, was another which has been of
much interest. Tucker plead guilty
on all charges and secured a total of
eighteen months on the gang. Tuck?
er was arested by the constable for
stealing a hog, but managed to escape
from the officer and took the officer's
double-barrelled shotgun along with
him when he went. The bloodhounds
were put on his trail and he shot one
of the dogs when it came up to him
In the swamp, where he had fled to.
He escaped at the time, but was later
captured by Guard Robbins in Colum?
bia and brought back for trial. He
plead guilty to larceny of livestock
and was given one year, to the charge
of grand larceny, stealing the shotgun,
he plead guilty and was given five
months, while on the charge of ma?
licious mischief, shooting the hound,
he was given three months.
Alma Washington the ten-year-old
colored boy, who stabbed and killed a
school mate in a quarrel over a pen
i cil, was on Tuesday afternoon found
(guilty of manslaughter by the jury
and he was sentenced to two years
in the reformatory for colored youths
at Lexington, the least sentence the
judge could pass on him.
James Pew was tried on the charge
of larceny of bicycle and was found
"not guilty" by the jury.
Pigeon Lawson was found guilty on
the charge of larceny of livestock,
stealing a hog from another negro,
and was given a sentence of one year
and a line of one dollar. He was
brought back from the gang, where
he had been sent by the magistrate,
to be tried, and will have to go back
there.
The next case was that against
Elizabeth Abram for violation of the
dispensary law. This case was in
progress when court adjourned for
dinner.
Bills returned were:
Martin Benbow, obtaining goods by
false pretense, true bill.
Anthony Gray, larceny of bicycle
true bill.
Waren McFadden, violation of the
dispensary law, true bill.
Judge Bowman announced that In
all cases where violation of the dis?
pensary law was charged, if the case
was tried, he would impose a term In
jail or on the gang and not allow the
alternative of a fine.

charge of the sale of Red Cross
Christmas seals in Sumter has receiv?

State executive secretary:
Dear Madam:
The year's work is over, and the
commission has wound up its work for
this season. During 1914 there were
sold in all 130,892 Red Cross seals.
There were 117 special agents who
aided in this work?55 women and
62 men.
As you recall, the number sold the
year before was 242,751. When we
take into account, however, the de?
pressed financial condition through?
out our State, instead of being dis?
couraged we shoud feel gratified at
the result.
Of the total amount raised (?!??
308.92), ony ten per cent $130.89).
left the State. That was the ten per
cent, due the American Red Cross.
The balance remains in South Caro
ina for use in anti-tuberculosis work.
Permit me to thank you in behalf of
the commission for your kind aid dur?
ing the past season. We are already
laying plans for next year's work, and
if business conditions improve we
? may look forward to a fine sale next
fall.
You have helped put the work on
a permanent basis and we feel sure
that great good has resulted and will
continue to result from it.
Yours very sincerely,

Eexecutive Secretary and Treasurer.
Columbia. S. C, Feb. 6. 1915.
Tlie resolutions adopted by the
County Farmsrs' Union in advocacy of
the strict enforcement of the stock
law against hogs running at large is
a step in the right direction. It is
thoroughly discouraging to progres?
sive farmers who are trying to rsiSS
more hogs and better hogs to have
them constantly exposed to danger of
infection with cholera by stray hv us.
Even when a farmer keeps his own
hogs in a pasture he is not protect?
ed against cholera for a stray hog
frequently gets into the pasture, or
If it does not get In it does equal dam?
age by coming in contact with the
pastured hogs through the wire fence.
No man has the right, legal or other?
wise, to turn his hogs loose to rango
over the county, and it is high time
that the law be enforced as a matter
of protection to those who are really
trying to make a business of hog rais
' ing.
