IIBL'SHV CHEEK The Greenville Piedmont of Wednes day publishes a story to the effect that a prominent Anderson county farmer of the Brushy Creek section, who was a visitor to that bur- Wednesday, "expressed the hope in conversation that Borne day Brushy Creek town ship or at least a large part of it. may be taken out of Anderson and annexed to Greenville . county." That a .great many Anderson coun ty people'^itf^the* extr?me' northern portion of the county, especially up in the Georgia Creek section and along the 8aluda river feel kindly toward Greenville and even sympathizes with her-is no doubt a fact, but we'd be willing to wager our new hat against The Piedmont's entire plant that there's npt three, native Anderson county men in that entlro region, if the question were put to a vote who would bo In favor of a foot of Anderson county going to Greenville county, even if it \ ere passible to move tho line that now separates tho two coun ties-tho Saluda river. If the Piedmont should happen to doubt thia we'd suggest that it "start the movement and have the election." It is very inconvenient,-it is true, for tho people in that section to come to Anderson to do all their shopping, etc., but it is no.less a hardship-in the event of the Piedmont's" dream than being forced to go to Greenville "to transact legal business." Brushy Creek is one of the greatest states in tho Un-or tho banner township of the world, and the only real criticism that has ever been made of it waa this very thing; viz: a small slfpe of lt la within seven or eight milos of Green ville. If it la agreeable with the folks up there you may have all of Plckens county. If you want lt. but narry Bingle foot of Anderson, old Scout. TRUE.

Archer of the BIuu ' Ridge railway who stated yesterday that on Tuesday they handled over POO pas senger between Anderson and Wal halla. All tra?na coming into and going out of Anderson were crowded and In several cases extra coaches had to be provided. "I enjoyed the great, picture very much," stated Mr. G. N. C. Boleman yesterday. "However, some of the things portrayed were not true to tho htstorclal happenings. There were never any pitched battles between .tho Ku Klux Klan and the negroes and their leaders as was depicted at one time in the picture. The work 01 the Ku Klux was done at night and In secrecy. Some of the men In the lower part of the state who had to hide out because of being identified with- the Ku Klux came to Townvillo. I remember some of them stopped with my wifefs father. Col. Trlbble. and I knew them very well. Three years ago when the state Old. Soldiers re union was held in Anderson I became acquainted with a gentleman from Laurcim county wlio hod the same name- as one of the men who had been at Townvllle years previous. ? I be gan to ask him about the other fel low who had his name and finally be Said that he remembered the people throe very well for he was the same man." With' the rain of the past few days many of the farmers are beginning to sow peas in their stubble land. One farmer stated yesterday that he in tended to sow several acres to be cut*as forage. AB usual there is a demand for peas. It ia said they have been 'selling for $1.50 and $1.25 thia Benson, which is much cheaper than they sold for several years ago. There has been some complaint about the number ot files In the walt ing room ot the P. ft N. and several .people had something to say about li yesterday. There are no screen doors and there 1B no way of keenping the flies out. Dr. and Mrs. W. W.
