xeutive vof North Dakota, has
riven his tfriends to .understand

aw. Gov. Burkeis-regarded as e
>n- of the .most able and suc- e
oessful leaders :the Ii@emocratic
party in the Northwes ihas pro
duced in years, and it was the
hope of his polibical .folowers
that he wouti become a candi

Vain Regrets. I
It is a pity our fore3ights are"
mat as good as our hindsights.
If .they were many mistakes
would be avoided.
We see that Mr. Patterson has I
gone North again in the interest I
of his road from Anderson to I
Easley; and, according to the
artick we reproduce from the
Daily AMail, there are hopes of I
him gedting the project through.
It is ump to the people of Pick
ens, if they want to progress, to I
change their ideas, and get in I
touch witJh him, or get in touch
with the poople who are behind
the projecoUf a road from Ruth
erfordton to Dra.'kes; or better
still, Connect up with Col. S. A.
Jones' Tranif (ciontinental Rail
road, and try to swing it, or a
prong of it, thmough this state.
Railroad projects are all about
us;, and sonie morning the busi
no(s people of Pickenf; will wake
up to find they are not on the
map at all-but they needn't
blanw this paper as the cause of
their predicament.

The Origin of the Dollar.
The wvord "dollar" was in ouri
language at least 300o years ago,
for it is used hy Shakspeare sev
eral times.
It is snppo'sCed that t he word
was in use ini iondon in the lat
ter part of th 11th cnenitury,I
having been~i brought in by the
niorth Gi(ermnan mierchant s, who
mlanaged1 the trade1i onl the Haltic
"Dll ar" appi'iered form . he iirst

'J oachimisthalers,'"
When Other mints were estab

Every pair of glasses manu
ktured for "stock" and sold in
ie various retail establishments
the country ae' made with
as exactly alike. We have
camined thousands of eyes and
awe seldom found two eyes ex
otiy alike in the same head.
4oes it stand to reason that the
lasses selected from a "stock"
boe would prove as satisfactory
s those we fit to the needs of
ach eye? It does not pay to
xpeminient with your eyesight;
is too valuable a possession,
nd should have the most care
ul attention. What we at
empt is done correctly and
vith satisfaction.
Our motto, "You satisfied or
