Edenfield'Advertiser TJ ?t>. J. ADAMS, - - - EDITOR WEDNESDAY, JAN. ll. ' EX-GOT. JOHN GARY EVANS AP POINTED MAYOR OF HAVANA. It is with unusual pleasure we record the appointment of a Sou tn Carolinian-and an Edgefield boy at that to the honorable and high position of Mayor of the City Nof Havana. On Friday last Maj. Gen. Lud low, military Governor of the de partment of Havana, knowir? . the worth aud ability of Maj. Joh;p Gary Evans, appointed him ^**yor| of Havana, and on Saturday morn ing Mayor Evans entered upon the discharge of his duties as Mayor. Of course he will dis charge the duties of his office tear lessly and well, and to the satis faction of all. WE ARE JUST ALIKE ON THE PHILIPPINE BUSINESS. Senator Tillman and we of the ADVERTISER are just alike on the Philippine business-only his vote counts and our's don't. And like us, the Senator is bitterly opposed to the peace commission's recom mendation to pay Spain $20,000, 000 for the Philippine islands, and remarked a few days ago, that "it would never receive his vote. He regarded two dollars.per head an enormous price for the United StateB government to pay* for ne groes (in a w^ild and uncivilized state) when we have so many al ready "that it gives one the colic at times to think of. the trouble yet ahead before they are^a'ssimi lated.". He expressed the opinion ?\ that the republican party has an elephant on i?s hands in the mat ter of the Filipinos, and was now in the position>of the fellow who had the bear, afraid to hojd on and. yet dare not let loose. ON THE SHADE TREE QUESTION. : And in our humble opinion, nothing adds nlpre to the beauty j .and adornment of a town, or vil-j l?ge, or dwelling, than full rowsoi plats of trees-water oaks, elms or maples. And it gives usrple?s?fe' to learn that Capt. Adams, ou; up to-date mayor, comtemplates putr ting out during the month of Jan uary (the best and Droper time) one or Jrwo hundred trees on our sid?walks wherever most needed. This move will redound tj the Vfj .. r t-_i ? _it_ii_ ,Swv* VI ~\^?pt>. ? Sus HiC.t aj^.T U are going by," and in after years ' the people will bless his memory. And Mr. Fisher, the president pf \ the Edgefield Cotton Factory, we are glad to know, *is setting out water oaks all around and on walks leading to his mill build ings, and will not cease in his good work until Be-has put out a double row. of water oaks on Fisher street running south from Norris avenue. The present cost will not be murh, but in a. few years it will add an hundred fold to the value of the | p mill proparty, and Fisher street will have ' become a delightful pleasure reiort to the people of the town. But, we are not willing that the ^tree question should be left abso- J j lutely with Mayor Adams and President Fisher, because it is a matter in which we are all inter ested, and, therefore, we urge you 11\ now, every one of you, because it is the very nich of time for the tree planting business, to Set out trees ! adorn the homestead, c Make it pleasant all around, Let the elms and oaks and maples - 8 With the evergreens abound. t! Let the home be so attractive That the boy that is to-day, 8 Wheu he shall arrive at manhood And in foreign lands may astray, Turn with longing heart and loving To his home these hills among, | h Thinking how the trees are thriving Which he helped to plant when young Senator Tillman is out and out opposed to the proposition of es tablishing county courts in this State, and says that "instead of lessening taxes they will be in cmsed, for the expenses will be |^ increased 30 percent., and another thing, the people living, at a dis tance from the court house will be forced to undergo extra expense in j ? their litigation by reason of the inconvenience and trouble in g?t-j" ting to the judge of the county court. It is presumed, of course, that this functionary will reside at the countv seat. There is much opposition from t< Confederate \eterans to the bill of G Senator Butler, of North Carolina, w to pension ex-Confederate soldiers, h and to Representative Rixey's bill tl to admit Confederate veterans to v soldiers' homes. Many petitions e< have been received by members of ti congress from the South, from d Confederate survivors', camps, a asking them to use their influence G to defeat the two bills. Senators h McLaurin and Tillman are both tl oppos8d to the bills, as are also a a majority, if not all, of the South T Carolina members ir the house of a representatives. lp LIVING IN THE COUNTRY. Hie Growing Fondness For Rural Life a tiood Sign In The Ladies Journal, Edward 3ok, with much satisfaction, notes he strong tendency to country wing and believes that "it is one >f the best signs of the "times Sothingin the world can keep a i man or woman so young and resh as to be able to be in' touch ?ach day with the perpetual freshness and youth of nature. Suburban lift) means more out of ioor living, and that is what we Americans all Deed.. We want ctore exercise, and suburban living makes that easier. We want our interest in things kept fresh, and that Dature does for us as nothing else can. "The .more our busy men see of nature's restful ways the more restful will they become. The closer we keep our children to tho soil the he?ltier will they be physiclly and the strouger will they develop mentally. The more our girls breathe in the pure air which. God intended for all, but which man in. the cities pollutes, the bett?r women we shall have, the fewer worried mothers we shall see. The more our young men see of out of door sports the more clearly will they realize the greatness of splendid physical health. . "The more the tired housewife sees of flowers and plants and trees the closer will become her interest in all things natural aod simple? and, as she sees" the simplicity with which nature works un consciously, will the lesson be forced upon her and enter into her own methods. We all agree *hat there is no teacher like nature herself. Let us all, then, get as [ close to her as possible. .

Mac-Corkle, ex-gover nor of West Virginia, who made a national reputation for the great work which he did in the devel opment of West Virginia while governor, contributes to the Jan uary number,of "The Southern ! Farm.Maeazioe of Baltirnorean nusually interesting and striking iscussion of southern farm coudi ons, aDd how the agricultural in cests of the soulh can alone b lade prosperous. Governor MacCorkle says : "The armer is not in a good way in the outh. The totals of his labor, iken as a whole, are enormous, ut the farmer is not the gainer nd the south does not profit her normous yields as she should he is another example of the ropo8ition that a country cannot ecome rich and strong through griculture alone. The loom, the saper and the anvil must go Dgether. Severed, they but furnish ie raw material for other and lore , favorable communities, 'ransportati^n, the factory and tie farm under wise and esiablish dlaws can make the soujh an tidustrial empire and the southern armer a mighty power in the world's affairs." Discussing the situation, he ays : "We cannot livo under such onditions as have existed. The outhern producer must change he mere raising of the staples and eek other products fortis farm. Ie cannot do this as things stand rith him today, for :vith a long iaul and no close home market, be annot do otherwise than raise the tapies of heavy farming. It needs io argument, but simply the re xpression of the statement that he glory of the southern farmer 3 to come through a change of aethods looking to the diversifica ion of his product. How .will we .0 this? There is one way, and hat is, enlarge our horizon, liber lize our laws, turn our faces to he east, welcome eastern and nor hem capital, establish by the side f the waterfall and in the midst f our cotton fields, enthrone on ur iron mines and locate amidst ur magnificent forests, the rail cad and the the factory." Discussing the farm situation Q New England and the lessons 0 be drawn from it by the south, rovernor MacCorkle states that rhile in New England this 3ummer e made a careful investigation of be situation. By reason of cheap restern land, vast changes in the conomics of transportation, grea ?r fertility of soil, thete was pro uced in New England some years go a tremendous farm depression, rreat numbers of farmers, who ad not been able to understand h? change that was taking place, bandoned the east and went west, 'hey did not grasp the situation, j nd thought that if they could not rofitably raise the cereals in com Aaa* ?jetiti?n :with the west, there w?s IQ (.:fe. ?"or the New England fur rier >; but ni the last- lo years a uarvei?UB change has takerj place n the agricultural districts of New England. They have found put j ,hat they cannot compete with the ?vest in the growing of the heavier grains, in the raising of beef, hogs and sheep, and wisely they .have turned to new fields of agriculture. The t?em.ng manufacturing towns demand, poultry, ? eggs, butter, fruits, vegetables and the thousand small fruits, that can be profitably grown adjac?ut to a great popula tion. The result is shown in a few illustrations. In 1865 the beef product of Mas8a:husetts was $8188,584 ; in 1885 it was $718,932 a loss of over $7,000,000. But these figures, which seemed to indicate a great destruction of the agricul tural interests of Massachusetts, were offset by the increase in milk, to which farmers turned their atteution when they found the change that was takiug plqce; and in 1885 the value of the milk product Was $10,312,762, while in i860 it was only $1,956,187-a gain of $8,356,575, making up the loss on beef and hiving $1,00Q,000 to spare. And last ytarj or in 1897, the milk product was worth $15, 000,000. In 1897 the value of the vegetable product, due almost al together to the growth"of manufac ing cities, was more than f 16,00, 000, while.strawberries and cran berries brought over $2,000,000. Notwithstanding the naturally poor soil of the "New England Stajtes, the highest acreage value of farm products of im]?roved land is found in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New Jersey, three States in which you ar? never ouV of the sound of the whirr of the- wheels of the factory, while the lowest vajueof farm sroducts per acre of improved laud is in the purely agricultural States. . Governor MacCorkle then illus tates his point with oue cape, of which hundreds .could je given, based on thp n?t~' '.Piment in his ow.n'IsTate, of a factory employing 400 men. "Un th.aj;>cpjnmunity the result was an .absoluter change in the whole ^agricultural^ 'situ^jon/ The.boye, instead of going west, became operatives in the- factory, atotvu grew up, every class o.c eamll farming gave the best resultR, at least $100 a year of farm products was required to feed the operatives, or $4,000 as a total. The variety of products raised included eggs, beans, peas fruits, vegetables, ther articles. One farmer made 1,800 clear profit last year from is meion crops, more than he had lad? in all his life as a wheat and orn producer.. Another turned is attention from wheat and corn 3 poultry and sold last year 1.800 hickens and $1,100 worth of truck. Ie points out that to secure these reat benefits the southern farmer aust unite wrth legislation to ttract the attention of capitalists nd enlist their cooperation in the wilding offactories, the develop oeiit of mines and the"< construc ion of railroads.

Thagh ita offensive feature* are, sqaetimes almost unbearable, few pbple are aware of the danger of wljch Catarrh is the forerun ner. Datarrh. invariably leads to Constjaption. Growing worse and worse^ach winter, those who rely upon ?the usual treatment of spray/ washes and inhaling mix tures^nd that it is impossible to chec?the disease with these local appliitions which only reach the surf a*. The offensive discharge increi es all the while, causing a feelii of personal defilement, and gets ?eper and deeper until it is only ? question 'of a short time untilke lungs aie affected. Thj importance of the proper treatjent can therefore be readily appraated. But no good what ever an be expected from local appliitions, as such treatment neve?id cure Catarrh, and nerer "I had such a severe cue of Catarrh that I lost my hearing in one ear, and part of the bone in my noie tloughed off. I was constantly treated with sprays and washes, but each winter the disease seemed to have a firmer hold on' me. I had finally been de clared incurable when I decided to try S. S. S. It seemed to get right at the seat of the disease, and cured me permanently, for I have had no?tou#h of Catarrh for ?even years. "MEI. JosBPHrxi POLHILL, "Due "Wert, S. C." Those who have had the first touch of Catarrh will save endless suffering by tak ing .the right remedy at the outset. Others who have for years sought re lief and found only disappoint ment in local treatment will find it wise to waste no, further time on sprays, washes, inhaling mix tures, etc., which are only tempo rary and can not save them from Consumption. Catarrh is a deep seated blood'disease. S. S. S. is the only remedy which can reach the very bottom of the disease and cure it permanently. Booka eent free by the Swift Sp?cifia Company, ??tata, Qa.
