The agitation of the trolley line from Brooklaod to Lexington and ? theDce to Jbeesviiie, isatesDurg, monetta and Aiken has been revived, and we traet that it will this time proye a success. Mr. Gadsden Sband, chief engineer, who is active 1/ interested in the movement to build the trolley line was in town Friday v'. looking over the field aod collecting each information as he could relative % to the most feasible route to be taken and other matters which concerned the prcjset. It appears to us that -wihe most feasible route yet proposed between here snd Brooklacd is the oae laid out by Messrs. G T. Graham, Julian E Kaufmaon and A J. F is, a few years since. It is not only direct, but would pass through a country that would liberally support such a railway. Ia passing from Lexington to -Leesville, we would BUggest that the route proper to be taken would be one on the upper side cf the dirt road over next to the Saluda ridge The local patronage through this section would be excellent, and we presume that local support will count for something. We would welcome such an enter pries through our county and we hope that our people will lencf it support anq encouragen enfc/' Give it all the right of way it needs and encourage other people to do likewise. In the long run it will more than re ? rkoflw hiotorinofi m * p?y ysj\l? U3J OC1UO | and selfishness and let every body pull together for the good of all. Here's hoping that Lexington will soon have a trolley. Mr. A- J. Fox, of our town, energetic and progressive, has been very active in the trolley line, and has been with the engineer corps at Brooklaod. The engineer force will be here in a few days, and we want our people to give them all the aid and assistance possible as to the best . route, &z. We are glad to note that representative Lever of this District has introduced in Congress a bill seeking to encourage and promote the dairy industry of this country. . It is a . move in the right direction, notwithstanding the fact that little can be v done the first year with the small appropriation provided. What we need in the south is diversification; and the more we diversify the more independent we will become. As long as we have but one crop (cotton) anc^we depend entirely upon that, we will be like the man with one pair of trousers, when he rips those he has to go to bed until they can be mended; so we with one crop, when we fail in that we bave tb^o the best we can until anotbe^year rolls around before we can mend it. The dairy industry has not been developed id the south, but there is no reason why it Bhould not b9 if some interest can be encouraged and stimulated as provided in Mr. Lever's bill. We trust it will become a law and that Souths Carolina will soon experience come of the good reeults therefrom. TI7~ tk.1. til it c uupc iiuau an tuui uuuvu waiulina congressmen will take up the work interested by Mr. Lever and help push it to a successful lermruation.

As a rule we don't o use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in connection with Scott's Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional note. From infancy to old age Scott's Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying im proper and weak development, restoring lost flesh and vitality, and repairing waste. The action oi Scott's Emulsion is nc more of a secret tlian the composition of the Emulsion itself. What it does it does through nourish ment?the kind of nourishment that cannot be obtained in ordinary food. No system is too weak oi delicate to retain Scott's Emulsion and gather goof o o from it. \ve wi:i send you n sample lree.

PECULIAR BANKRUPTCY Proceedings in Leesville Suit Again; a Concern Sold Three Times, There was an interesting heat in in bankruptcy proceedings yesterda before Referee J. J. Eirle. The cae involved a mercantile concern at Lee* ville with claims amounting to abou ?6,000 against it. It appears fror the testimony that Messrs. A C Bouknight and C P. West sold on their business to Mr. J P. Able, w' afterwards deposed of it to Mr ( D. Birr. Afterwards claims wer filed against Messrs. Bouknight an O West for debt3 and it was claimed b that firm that these debts were tract ferred to Mr. Able. This is denie by Mr. Able and proceedings in b^nl rnptcy were commenced. On accour of the confusion arising from tb various exchanges of property it wa decided to refer the matter to th referee and a decision will be give on March 20;h ?State, March 11th Fine Record.
