Edffef ield Advertiser T?IOS. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, FEB. 13, 1895. Up to the first of February the fanners of the county, so far as we know, have not! ordered a sin gle car load of guano. Mr. and Mrs. Bonner, principal and vice principal of the Due West Female College, recently tendered their resignation to the board of trustees. It was accepted and the Rev. Charles Todd, of Charlotte, N. C., elected president. The Star says the merchants of Marion have not bought a sack of fertilizers up to date. The farm ers do not seem to want it. We call attention to an article in this issue of the ADVERTISER from the pen of Dr. Timmerman. It is wise and temperate and is a diagnosis of the situation from a Reform standpoint that all honest reformers and conservatives must recognize as true. Gov. Eva?s says nearly every dispenser in the Stale is behind in his accounts. The Governor should give names and specifica tions. This sort of general state ment does grave injury to the few dispensers who have not been "at it." Let tH*e names be given. Shortage means embezlement and embezlement is stealing. It is said that one part of alum to nine parts of salt will save nour pork. Use one and one-half pounds of alum to 100 pounds pork; dissolving the alum and pouring in on the meat as it is be ing packed. After packing, pour on enough brine to cover it. It is claimed that this process will draw th3 sourness out and save the meat. Mr. W. J. Williamson of Mari on County made on Rss than . three acres bf land last year $S77 worth of tobacco. The land was improved and Mr. Williamson leckons the cost of marketing his tobacco ai $75 per acre, or there abouts. Mr. Williamson shipped his tobacco to Danville, Va., and the consignee wrote him that it was the best he had received. The price paid an average of 60 cents per pound for"his tobacco. Au exchange gives the following sensible advice, which our readers might try. It is certainly a quick way to become rich; "Money makes money. No one is so pooi that he cannot rake up a penny tc of tho month deposit'"a cent in a bank, and on the succeeding 30 days of the month double your de posit. Follow this programme faithfully, and at the "nd of the month you will be surprised to find that your account will show the sum of $5, 368, 709 12 to your credit. With that little sum all you have to do is to retire and let the other fellows hustle." Some Things Jefferson Said. "Were it left to me to decide wheiirer we should have a govern ment without newspapers, or news papers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter." Corruption of morals in tho mass of cultivators of the soil is a phe nomenon of which no age nor na tion has ever furnished an exam ple." "I have but one system of ethics for man and for nation : to be faithful to all engagements under all circumstances." A Warning to Cotton Planters. NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 29.-The Hon. Hector D. Lane, of Alabama, president of the American Cotton Growers' Protective Association, has furnished the following signif icant memorandum for publica tion to the people of the South : "It goes without saying that if anything like three-cent cotton on plantations is witnessed next year a general crash will ensue. Real estate and securities of all kinds will reach such a level in the South as few can imagine: "European speculators are to day selling cotton iii Liverpool for delivery in October, November, and December, 1895, at a price equiva lent to abont 4 cents on farms in the South, for middling,or 5 cents at the ports, believing that anoth er 9,500,000 or larger crop will be grown in America, which would insure them a profit of at least 1 cent per pound, which would mean to the farmer about 3 cents at the railroad stations next au tumn whsu cotton is moving in large volumes. It is not to be sup posed that these shrewd European cotton people are aggressively sell ing the next crop at equal to 4 cents unless they have excellent reasons for believing that the South will plant for another mon ster crop. "They are confident, on informa tion furnished them, thal Texas will not decrease its acreage, there fore believing this to be true to such an extent that they will be able to buy back during next fall the cotton the}- are now selling at much lower prices, realizing there by handsome profits. KIt remains with the farmers and merchants of the South iq say whether these European specula tors will be permitted to reap a golden harvest at the expense of the farms, plantations, towns, real estate and securities of the South. ' "The above statement is from me officially, and I desire that it should be presented to the public as such through the press. "HECTOR D. LAXE, President Cotton Growers' Pro tective Association." About Factories. The people of Summerton are making liberal offers to have a starch factory established at that place. Laurens is to have a $150,000 cotton mill. One half of the capi tal will be foreign and the other taken afc home. Work will com mence this spring. A public meeting of the citizens of Lancaster was held Monday to discuss the feasibility of building a cotton factory. Another cotton mill is to be es tablished in Aiken. The sub scription list is headed by a dona tion of ten acres of land and $,5, 000 in stock by one mau. The citizens of Prosperity have come to the conclusion that their town can support a cotton mill and have begun a movement in the di-, rection of establishing the factory. MUST LAST FOB GENERA TIONS. Constitutions Are Not Tempora ry Affairs,-Some Counsel-From Dr. Tim merman. Editor Register : It is at least presumable that every patriotic citizen of South Carolina has au abiding iuterest in tho common welfare of the State and in the fu ture destiny of her people. If such be the case, we may surely lay aside for the time fac tional pride aud prejudice and ex ercise mutual. forbearance anda judicious discretion in tho selec tion of men who shall frame and adopt an organic law for the whole people. A constitution is a basis and a guide for all future legisla tion ; and moreover its framers will have the power to abrogate existing laws. Hence it becomes doubly important that discretion, judgment and wisdom be used in the selection of delegates to tho constitutional convention, provi ded for by the last General Assem bly, and also in the joint action j of them when couvened. Again, a constitution is not intended to subserve a temporary or experi mental purpose as is sometimes the case in the enactment of stat . ute law. It has a higher, wider and grander end in view. Ii is not made for a year or a decade, r but should be shaped for a genera . tion or generations. Therefore it cannot in any proper sense be con sidered a partisan or factional in strument or chart. The faction in ? power to-day cannot, reasonably i expect to_perpetuate itself-. JixMme': jureen-?rxTir ctiS'erent ideas and political policies will succeed ' to office and as a consequence to 1 the administration of the affairs I of the State. It follows, from this point of view, that the convention as a body should have such sanction of the State Democracy as to inspire confidence, command respect and invite support from all rational, moderate-thinking, patriotic citi zens throughout the State, We cannot hope for this result if in tense partisan or factional feeling prevails in the selection of dele gates who shall compose said con vention. Let Democrats patrioti cally reason together in a spirit of amity and fairness and mutually agree to abate extreme preconceiv ed opinions for the common good. Let men of both factions of the Democratic party in our beloved State have an opportunity, with out prejudice or pre-judged favor or disfavor, of discussing before the people the changes necessary to be engrafted, in their judgment, in the fundamental law of the land -to the end that the people may I be wisely and faithfully repre sented, and all will be well. I will be quite content, so far as I am concerned, to commit my destiny to the men whom the people in their sovereignty may adjudge worthy of the trust reposed. Respectfully, W. H. TIMMERMAN.

In Orangeburg, a negro charged with hog stealing, pleaded in jus tification that the hog broke into his patch and ate all his corn, and then he killed the hog and ate him, which remiuds the Augusta Chronicle of the fellow who said he had invested so much in ice cream and candy during his court ship that he had to marry the girl to get his money back. _ - CORRESPONDENCE Libraries For Schools-A New Departure, and a Moving On ward and Upward. DEAR ADVERTISER : As most of the schools are now in session and a greater interest is manifested in them just at this particulao sea son than any other during the scholastic year, allow me space to suggest a simple, eas}', and inex pensive way by which every schcol in our State can provide for itself a small library. I take it for granted that no ar gument is needed to show the in dispensableness of such an impor tant adjunct iu every school. And yet it is astonishing how very very few communities have ever realized it. Not one couutry school in a hundred, take Edgefield Coun ty over, can point to a single vol ume of auy kind and claim it as "our common property." In the rural districts are found the brightest minds, the most am bitious boys and girls. Their wits are keen, their receptive powers wonderful ; in their text books they make rapid progress ; but not withstanding all this it is a la mentable fact that if you take the average school boy or girl they couldn't for their life tell whether Shakespeare, Longfellow, Tenny son, Scott, Wordswoth were ante diluvians or post-diluvians, Greek writers or English, living or dead, men or women! Why? Because like myself and hundreds of others who were reared in the country and were educated (?) in the ''old field" school, they have had noth ing to read, consequently have read nothing. In tho name of all that, parents hold dear, viz. the proper training and developing of their children's minds, this ought not to Le, must not be ; and brother teaoher will you not swear with me that no longer it shall be? Wrong, radically wrong, is that education which does not create a passionate desire for general read ing. Thal community dues an irreparable injury to its boys and girls which Tails to make a provi sion for the cultivation and-to a small extent at least-the gratifi cation ot such a desire. In sea son and out, tho maxim, "make yourself familiar with the best writers" should bo inculcated. Here is the plan which the wri ter has known to bo adopt i'd and which has worked admirably : Get every man woman and child inter ested iu the scheme of establish ing a library in their school. When sufficiently interested tell them "to show their faith by their works;" that is, get everyone lu make the school a present of a book; does'nt matter what kind, nor on which subject it may treat. Inscribe the name of the donor on the fly-leaf, nu m bor it and place it on the shel ves. lu an incredi bly abort time the nucleus will he found. Have a small library frei-, say ten cents ? year, for the priv ilege of u>ing the books, allowing no book to be kept out more than two weeks. Not only will the pu pils gladly pay so small a sum for, to them, so great u privilege, but many of the patrons and others who are not direcJy interested in the school will pay the fee that they may have access to this small store house of knowledge. In ad dition to this arrange occasionally for an entertainment in the na ture of a play or concert, have a small admission fee, the smaller the better say five cents, letting it be understood that the proceeds are for tho benefit of the school library. Wi tb these funds new books of a choice kind can be add ed, and while the growth may be slow yet in a year or two a hun dred or more volumes will fill a space on the school room wall so long occupied by vacancy. The management of the library can be left to the teacher. The establish ing of it will undoubtedly depend on his efforts. Parents, patrons, money thus invested will pay a thousand fold! God speed the day when every school in this Southland can boast of a library however small it may be ! Qui legit regit. B. W. CROUCH. Clio, S. C., Feb. 8, '95. Most Delightful-Lecture MAJ. JAMES T. BACON OX "AX OLD MAX'S KRANICY KALEIDOSCOPE." Aiken, S. C., Feb. 2.-Maj. James T. Bacon, ut' Edgefield, delivered Lis lec ture, " in Old Man's Kron ky Kalaide sccpe,nat the Institute Hall last night to an audience which, though small on account nf the weather, was both culti vated and appreciative. And the lec ture! 'Tis a series of reminiscences of Southern life from 1S45 to 1S95. 'Tis a fund of humor and a depth ol' pathos. I wish that every man north of Mason and Dixon's line, who thinks the slaves were ill-treated "befo de war" could have heard the touching tribute Major Bacon paid to the old 'mammy ;' could have heard his description ot nis death-bed scene, when the venera ble mistress herself was there and prayed to Cod to "have mercy ou the soul of ber faithful Rachael." 1 wish every young Southern man aud.South ern woman could have heard the lec ture; 'twould make them venerate more than ever the gallant chivalry of our fathers and grand-fathers, aud make them strive lo emulate their courteous manliness, and the sweet pure woman hood of our sainted moth ers. And the major's humor was as subtle and as spontaneous as was his pathos sad. His description ol' a bal! who could have described a bali as he did save Major Bacon ! And who could help laughing at his description ol "the stalely woman who tried to keep her chin oil' the little man's head," and "the little woman who tried to keep her face out ol' the tall man's sleeve !" And the contrast Major Bacon drew between that old jewel ol' a black cook, "Ca'line," and the "Mrs. Ariminta Georgiana Washington" who conde scends to "try you lady for three days," as cook, in this year of grace 1S?5. There is a peculiar charin in the soft ness of his voice which at once capti vates and holds one; aud his chann ing word pictures ofcthe days now gone, make all wish they could havs Jived tben,_j?hileJiis-hurr''" - ii%-?'-^ -TrraKsry?u glad you are living now i u enjoy them.
