NO MONEY OCT OF MELONS. Market Was PrOtH rated by the Large reach Crop and the Pnlc fv-ot- land Demoeratlc Primaries failed Itor the 27th. Special to The Observer. Laurlnburg, Aug. 1. The melon and cantaloupe seasons are now about over, and while both the qual ity and tho quantity have been far above the average, there has been no money In them for the growers this year. The large peach crop com pletely prostrated the market that was already sick on the Republican panic, and the unemployed people could not buy everything. The ma jority of the growers failed to make expenses, while a few were lucky enough to strike an occasional good sale land thus pull through. Our people planted entirely too .many of them this year, and It is to be hoped that there will be no repetition of such another year. The cotton crop promises well at this time. The weed is in good shape, of a nice site and fruited nicely. The corn crop is not going to be as good, as the cotton crop. The Democratio primaries for Scotland county have been called for August 27th. and the boys are now at work a little along political lines. At present ft seems that there will be no contests except for member of the House of Representatives and county commissioners. Sheriff W. D. McLaurin and Register or ueetis John D.

So far the contest Is almost lifeless; there does not seem to be much Interest taken in the matter, this probably because of . the ' high, character of all the aspirants for of fice at t"he hands of the .people this time.
