If there was ever a time when the value of a local paper in the develop ment of the industrial and busim a interests of a town was discredited by an intelligent people that time has passed forever. In this age of push and progress, this age of advertising, no j bushier community can attain to anv high degree ef success without this potent agency. As well attempt to sail the mighty sens without chart or compass as to hope for commercial victories without a newspaper as a medium of communication between buyersund sellers, between town and country. Every live, up-to-date business man is constant lv offering bargains in trade, and developing plans for the success of his business and the good ol his customers, but these count for very little so long as the general public knows nothing of theso commercial ventures. The man who tells ol tingood things jn store for his friends will not be long without their patronage: but to reach any considerable part of si given community he utusl have sonic easy channel through which to reach those whose favor he covets, whose trade he solicits. This fact is so well known to the great business houses ofthe north and west that they Hood the country wi^^ catalogues, circulars, and newsp^^rs telling of the goodthey offer, and the advantage; ar ri i. from business relations with then chant.el- t housand-^l rs ffoP^m our people to the men who thus*seek their trade, and ' cater to their wishes. In fact, the mail 1 trade has become so large that in- j creased lacilities for handling it have been inaugurated, antl the railroads % derive large profits from their contracts for handling the mails. The great need of every business community, therefore, is a newspaper through which to reach the people, and by which agency they ntav nira-urably overcome this outside competition, and at the same time keep the money which thus goes abroad in 01 * A own community. Having dasirahl. goods for sale they must tell of the bargains offered, and eater to the needs and wishes of our people. Hut there are other advantages to he r derived from the existence of a local ^ paper. To the upbuilding of a town investors ni"p.t be attracted, the advnn tuges offered must be advertized, and the world outside must be kepi thoroughly posted as to its local enter prise and progress, in al. these mat- j - ters the local paper is an absolute e-I sential. Reasoning from effect ti ! ' cause, the people very naturally con (dude that a town whose business tu tercsts and enterprise are such :>s ti justify the existeix a of a local paper is one within whose borders residence would be desirable, and in w hose marttrade must be safe and ad\a itagous The attention of men whose location among us would prove helpful is thus surely attracted, and increased tradi ( naturally results. The local papei gives large spare and careful atlentioi to all matters of tins nature, makes tin success of the town its pleasure am delight, and by community ol interest the paper and the town live and flourish together. There is, therefore, : place for us, and a reason for our existence. Sustain us and your interest? will he promoted. There are social advantages arising from the existence of a paper hi tin community which cannot he ignored, nor can there tie any question as to itvalue as a medium of general inlelh gcnce. To slat" facts is sulliCellt l?roof of tor;.- Iriill.fii' ? - their importance is too wolI known l< ne?csitntc further remark.

A trial ' n crder will convince you. pi fe \ ^ \ i s 1* 1? It SKY FRANC K. A good ileal lias been said recently * in The State about the removal of the f Vesta Mill* from Charleston to Gains- c ville, CJa The reason assigned for the ' removal is the inefllciency of the labor a available in the city. The manage f ment lias changed several times in the last tifieen years, the property being 1 1 sold and the business reorganized from ^ j time to fine. Negro labor was the * only kind that could be had under the 1 I t various presidents and superintendents, but tncre seemed to be no scarcity of ( that, where negroes were so very nu- I1 merous. After two or three failures .1 Illlller others. (I.Hit .Intin It Motif-I gomery, of Spartanburg, one of the * moat successful mill men of the South, s ? I became president, anil many thought ^ lie would he able to succeed with negro labor. For some yrars he has tried it, c and now he and the directors have deI cided that the labor will not do; so they will move the plant to Georgia, ^ where they can get while labor. What was lacking in the negre la- s bor? One word will answer the ques- < | tion, namely, perseverance. The Ne- 1 groes would not supply what is called j a continuity of labor?they would not persevere. Hence failure. s Is there not a lesson here for white t foiks as well as negroes? Most certain- u ly there is. Perseverance is not the only condition to success; properly j ( directed energy and patience are also; j necessary, llut without perseverance ! t there cannot he abiding success In j anything by anybody. In buainess i you must persevere through cold and * heat, storm and sunshine, or you had as well write failure at once 011 your a undertaking. How many there are 1 whose business is like Jonah's gourd, ! 0 1 which grew in a night and was wilted " I and scorched next day 1 See how the good business man continues tii husi- ^ ness as regularly as tlio sun moves through the heavens. The frequent u changes in one thing and another do 11 not interfere with his persevering con- j tiouance. Sometimes we say, he holds c on like a hull dog. But the tenacity I of such a dog, though a fairly good comparison, is not the best. Take rather the moving regularity of the seasons, in their constant activity, as a s' better compatison of the business man f< who succeeds best, ^ With perseverance, patience, and a' tact, The Advocate may reasonably hi hope to tie useful and profitable. s] Take notice of the bey or girl who is oni regular and persevering at school, fc Aoing on? day aud not the next, allow- t* ing insignificant things to hinder his m attendance, and you may put him down : di m a failure at school, however competent ami faithful his teachers may be. til Many are the opportunities that are ^ waited for lack of perseverance. tli I.et us think of one more particular fr wherein perseverance is even more important than any we have yet thought |1( ?f?perseverance in religious activity. In many so-called religious people js there is le*9 perseverance, in the face of difficulties, than in anything else. \ religions duty is neglected for a cniis* that would not he regarded in ^ one' business. A little rain or wind will keep many people from church,, when it would not slop them from secular work. Company coming to see them on Sunday will keep them at home, whereas on any other day they would not be del erred from their farm 111 >?r store by the presence of company. al If the churches had no more peraever- 1,1 ing people than these nominal Chris l>' tians, they would go to the wall, as a w man's business would go with such indifference ami tiufailfuluess. Besides, .1? uch a person is far from doing what his Master requires, and he is losy.g every day. Whether sin h people, who g, have no perseverance will get to C( heaven, is not for me to spe;vk positively, but to say tbe least, u is doubtful. Surely without love i/j Cod and men v there can be no salvation; but love in- ^ duces one to useful, persevering ao ivity in the Matter's service. Without I ^ spiritual life one cannot be save?; but [ R life manifests itself. Where-there is J J no manifestation, can life fca present? tj Perseverance in religious activity is a sign of life. Kvrry t'.lristian should ' how this perseverance. lie, like his . Lord, should " ?? ahoqi his bather's I ?? iv II I 1 O.
