In order that we may have an opportunity to collect and work up outside business, and have our eyes properly treated, we have engaged the services of Mr. T. Larry Gantt, the well-known editor and journalist, to assist us in the publication of the Senti nel-Journal, while he is in Pick ens recruiting his health, hav ing recently recovered from an attack of fever, and thinks our mountain climate will fix him all right. Mr. Gantt is too well known to the people of our county and state to need any in troduction. For the past year Mr. Gantt has been looking af ter his farming interests below Columbia, and his health was run down somewhat. He thinks our invigorating and health-giving climate is just what his system requires. In fact Mr. Gantt says he feels fif ty per cent. better already. We shall now make a thor ough canva' of the county, col lecting and soliciting new sub scribers, for we intend to make the Sentinel-Journal a welcome and indispensable visitor in eve ry home not only in Pickens but surrounding countiesi. Mr. Gaiitt will be of invalua ble service in advertising Pick ens to the outside world, as he contributes to leading and wide ly circulated newspapers and periodicals in different parts of the country. It is his intention to devotelone day each week to visiting dlifferent sections of our count y, as also the neighboring towvns, andswriting them up in his characteristic style. We have long felt the necessi ty of devoting more attention to our outside affairs, but could not find a suitablei person to take charge of our paper. Mr. Gant~t expresses himself as delighted wvith our section, so far as he. -has seen it, and we hope he will ibe induced to be come a permanent citizen. Hon. Julius Boggs tells us there is a hickory tree in the mountains of Pickens county that wvill measure 75 feet to the first limb. There is not a knot or blemish to that height on its trunk. Mr. Boggs says there are vast belts of the finest hard wvood timber in our mountains, and which some day, not far distant, wvill be opened to mar ket and prove more valuable than gold mines to the fortunate Owners. In order to reach our South At lantic and Gulf ports, in view of the completion of the Pana ma Canal, all the great Eastern and Middle Western railways are building Southward. Pick ens should get to work and cap ture at least one of these lines. We are in one of the gate-ways to the coast, and then whats a 4lagnificent virgin country it vouild develop. t zIs high time p~e ~'9tt~gadufp 1Ps0Vt young 1d tine'keepJr in the 8a g anie does not think there a any danger of mOb violence a tN 'the black brute was lando in jail. "While the..good pepl of Spartanburm Wove justifyi h dignant, the attack on the jail while lead by, a man, not evei a citizefi of the county, was con fined to-a few irresponsible boys And the firm and 'determine< attitude of Sheriff John, Nicholli quickly deterred these. Mr Gantt says toq much praise can not be accorded the people o Spartanburg for their law-abi diihg forbearance, and the cot ton mill people set a most corn mendable example. The onl: injuries to Miss Dernpsey. wen the beating up of her eyes an( face, while a sprinkling of bro ken glass and bird-shot tell .th story of the maimed and woun ded. While the ordering out o: the three military companiei was perhaps a timely precautioi Mr. Gantt thinks that the sher iff could have protected his pris oners with his deputies, backe< as he was by the determinatior of the citizens that the law b< permitted to take its course. There seems to be an epidem ic of crime among the lawlesE negroes of Spartanburg. With. in a short period, one bruta: murdt r has been committed, v train wrecked and two deathf resulted, and Miss Dempsey if the second lady that has beer attacked. And yet not a crimi nal has as yet been punished That they have exercised s< much forbearing patience speaki volumes for the law-abiding cit zens of Spartanburg. There was no evidence o drinking, and it is seldom yoi seldom hear of sober men com mitting acts of lawlessness.
