The Lexington Dispatch, LEXINGTON, 8. 0., Circulation, 1,733. Wednesday, June 1, 1904. It is a raFe thing that LexiDgton allows her pi?t<r c unties to take the lead in any movement, baving for its object the good i f iLe county. As a rule she generally leads the van, but we are compelled to acknowledge that in regard to the matter of buildiDg j * llQC 1 free bridges acrcsB ner nvao oucuWU , allowed Newberry and Salada to lead } her. A'ready two steel bridges have j been built across the Saluda connect- j ing the two counties, and steps are , being taken to build the third. Lexington has none to her credit, although the building of one across Saluda river has become to be a public necessity and the demand for it is growing and will continue to grow. Public economy as well as public policy, if there were do other reasons, seems to us, would be sufficient inducements to build the bridge. Some thincr must be done, and that quickly, ??o to give the people of the Fork a convenient, 6afe end sure means of crossing the river to their court house to discharge their public and private duties, or something will drop. To | place the matter squarely before the | Commissioners, which we understand, has never yet been done, we suggest that the business men of this place I get together and lay this matter be- i fore the bosrd at its next meeting and urge that a favorable action be J taken. Col. James A. Hoyt, of the Greenville Mountaineer, one of the most prominent newspaper men in the State, died at his home in that city last Friday. He wa3 well known throughout the State as a man of | unimpeachable character, of strong | and unswerving convictions. As a i soldier of the Confederacy his record I : - ? /I A nnnri man. a I * remains uutaiuisucu. u ^ 7 _ pure Christian end a faithfal and patriotic citizen has been gathered to his fathers and h*:s memory lingers with us as sweet incense. A destructive fire broke out in Greenwood, this State last week destroying a large block of buildiDgs in the business portion of the city One lady lost her life in the flames and it was supposed that two men did aho, but this proved erroneous as they have since been heard from The fire is supposed to have been of incendiary origin and the Attorney General has gone up there to make investigations. At the loss of something over 3000 1 men the Japs have once more succeeded in driving the Russians from i another stronghold, and capturing . seventy guns. It appears that vie tory comes dear to the Japs, but it comes all the same. Senator M. S Quay, senior U. S. 'Senator from Pennsylvania, died at Beaver, Pa, last Saturday after a long illness. Me was a prominent, leader in republican politics and as each had a national reputation. The State primary campaign begins June 21. Letter to Jesse Hallman. Lexington, 3 C. Dear Sir. The way to reckon the cost of paint is to put both costs together; the cost of the paint and the cost of putting it on. It would save this country hundreds of millions of dollars a year; it would save you alone (if you happen ;5o be a victim) several dollars a year. See how ifc works. It costs as taach to put on one paint as another, don't it? Yes, if ycu use the same number of gallons. Well, don't I? No, you'll use twice as many gallons of adulterated paint asofDevoe; and you've got to pay twice as much j for putting it on. ir_ vr \ r.r>?T? TY.lViJ "NT.

Since early womanhood / suffered with bearing down pains and j nervousness. I was thin and worried, j but Peruna restored me. Those who j knew me before cannot understand \ the change, but I can sum it all up in the : blessed word, Peruna."--flattie Grace. Mrs. Elizabeth Ferguson, No. lsl 51st St., Brooklyn, N. Y., President West Brooklyn Audubon Society, writes: "I am pleased to tell what a blessing Peruna has been to me. Several years ago my constitution seemed broken down and I cared little whether I lived ' or died. I had taken so much medi- j cine that the sight of a bottle made me | sick. I had read about Peruna curing j women, and / thought perhaps it would \ help me. I bought a bottle and be tore it was finished I felt better. I kept on taking it, and after three months'; faithful use I was a well woman and able to do the work and undergo the strain of younger days."?Elizabeth Ferguson.
