There was an unusuaPy largo rowd in attendance at Court, Menay, although there we?e no imporant cases to be tried. The case proably most interesting was a chorge gainst Mr. Thomas Phillips, for oprating a whiskey still. Solicitor .pears did not argue the case at all. Tie jury rendered the verdict of not ruilty.

Cantonncnt training grounds until that mater is decided, for if the government laces the training cam]) in this couny, the road across same will be closd, and any work done by the chainang now will be thrown away.

The wireless grape vine from Charleston enrries the news to the efect that the Cantonment is coming o Chesterfield County as the site seeded here is the best yet found by he United States government enginers. On the one liuniim.! ?...i emu imy housand acres needed for the traintig grounds, the government has opions for one hundred and thirty-five housand acres of aame, at an averge iease price of $o.0u per acre, with he average sale price of $30.00 per ,cro. If the proposed site in this ounty is selected, the remaining fifeen thousand acres will be condemnd. It is said that tho best site so ar viewed for the Cantonment proper, is near Guess. However, everyhing else being equal, it is thought hat the Cantonment will be located ear the Seaboard, between Patrick nd McBee, owing to the superior adroad facilities. The revised lines f the Cantonment training grounds rill not take in the Shiloh communiy, as was originally proposed. The no will cross the Scotch road near Idom's Mill, seven miles south og '.hesterfield, and run from there to iuess in a westerly direction. Special Sarvica Checks!?

Ti v,onKrcssman Stevenson woke up dc the National House of Representatives th and tho entire country as well last be week, when in a memorable speech delivered in tho halle of Tongrep.s, \\ he exposed the cotton seed oil mills hi compact, whereby they had forced tj the price of cotton seed down $11.00 f0 a ton. Mr. Stevenson stated that n[ cotton was worth 30 cents a pound, te and that the speculators had driven })H the price down, and were trying to cheat the farmers out of the value of their cotton. He called attention [K to the fact that the South's cotton l() crop for 1014 was sacrificed and sold at one-half what it cost the farmer to make, and now that the farmer was entitled to every cent his cotton was worth. That cotton manufac- J,1 _ mrrs nud soia cotton goods to the IJ government on a basis of .30 cents a pound for cotton, and that the farmer should have the same amount ' for his cotton. As a result of Mr. Stevenson's exposure of the cotton po seed oil mill compact, and of the speculators forcing down the price ha of cotton, prices commenced at once ^ to advance, and within less than five days after his speech, cotton had mt gone up $20.00 on the bale and cot- ou ton seed has advanced 15 cents a bu- l*r shell.
