8. Solid on Cheats.
Due West, May 19,18S8.
Mrs. Ida Bonner has been stricken
with paralasis.
Dr. Wideman is some better at this
date.
Mr. W. L. Miller is taking in the
town and looks well.
Capt. McGowan and Mr. Branch
passed through town enroute for picnic
at Irwin's mills.
Maj. Nance has been quite unwell
k for a week and failed to fulfill some 01.
his appointments. He is up again.
Prof. J. H. Miller has been invited
to deliver a speech during the meeting
of the Teachers State Institute, which
occurs on the 11th, 12th, and 13th of
July. We hope the Professor will
comply.
Capt. J. N. King spent a couple of
days in town last week. The Captain
is making a rattling run for the Legislature
and will get a good vote at tliis
place. He is a good man.
Miss Clara Sharp's school exhibition
attracted quite a number from
Due West. We understand the exercises
were interesting. Maj. Nance
made a speech, being called on.
Decoration day was observed here
on last Tuesday on account of the rain
on the 10th. It was the most interesting
occasion of the kind we have attended.
Prof. Hood made a speech,
followed by Dr. Grier. who also read a
? x*
poem. Miss jonnson 01 tue reuiaic
College read most charmingly a poem
written by a Confederate soldier on
the back of a Confederate note. Prof.
Hood deserves credit for the interest
he annually takes in this sad occasion.
The report of the State Convention
in the News and Courier created considerable
excitement in Due West. It
was a matter of surprise that a portion
of Abbeville's delegation went back on
Tillman and the Primaries. And also
that not a single one of our delegation
came to his rescue when he was combating
so many. Tillman has risen
largely in our estimation. He made a
gallant fight. The farmers from one
nH nf this state to the other should
nobly come to his rescue. They |
should see to it that the next fight,
Tillman makes he have the voters
(those that will stick to him) to back
him. He was right in his fight
against the ring and the nabobs. All
honor to Tillman. He makes a good
showing as reported in the Nexus and\
Courier.
Dr. W. M. Grier spoke before .the
Winthrop Training school in Columbia
last Friday on "The Ethics of
Literature." On Sabbath he preached
for Dr. Wm. Adams, of Augusta.
The Doctor is constantly kept on the
v?ing?doing good.
Mrs. H. P. McGee, Mr. McGee and
Mr. M. B. Clinkscales attended the
"Rorktiaf Convention in Richmond, Va.,
as (lefegates from this portion of the
moral vine yard. They had a nice
trip.
We received a progam announcing
the exercises of the dedication of!
Trinity church, Atlanta, Ga., which
took place recently. Dr. Lee the pastor
was to preach the sermon. The
exercises consumed the day and were
interesting.
Dr. Lathan preached a characteristic
sermon last Sabbath on "Judas
Iscariot."
There were services last Sabbath in
the Associate Reformed church, morning
and evening notwithstanding the
, rain.
A crowd of anglers went to Martin's
Mills last week. iq;. Cowan galloped
> in the lead.
Major Pearson has placed a squad of
hands under Mr. P. R. Henry who
has taken charge of the street depart
meat and will do some excellent work.
Dr. Edward Cowan and Mr. Erock
have been appointed a i.carii <t
Health. They will shortly visit the
town on a tour of inspection. This
"local" has Had his lots cleaned off 4
times since Christmas and his pig pen
Eut so high that cyclone will have to
unt for it.
The announcement that the South
Carolina College ha9 25 "tax eaters" is
an eye opener. Let the Press and
Banner open its batteries on this outrage.
We hope Tillman and the Farmers
will clean out this Augian stables
completely this Fall. We don't see
any hope of reform from any other
quarter. Let the people send up representatives
to tne Legislature who
will stand by their interests.
TVv^o anXT VinHv holipVA thnf. Allhp
ville county, could send to a State
Convention 10 more men lhan she
ought to have there ? Or could send
two Senators to the Senate ? The
Charleston delegation, and the News
and Courier would turn things
"wrong side out" first. Yet Charleston
clings to these wrongs.
R. S. G.
Immigration.
Much is now being said all over our
State on the subject of foreign immigration
and as it is one of the living subjects
which cannot be deferred, it is
well for every one who has any interest
of the future of this country, to try
to have intelligent views of the entire
subject. There are some things
to be taken into consideration, as imperatively
in favor of immigration, and
should not be lost sight of in investigating
the subject.
That we have in our Southern country
vast sections, which ought to be
taken up, and improved, there can be
no doubt, and that this is absolutely
necessary to the material growth and
prosperity of this country, is also an
equally admitted fact.
This admitted, we are naturally led
to inquire, What can be done that all
this may be realized ?
Immigration seems to be the only
means, however much we may fear
and misgive as to the best methods to
retaliate the matter.
Our present population is not suftifionf
hrinor ohanh the mur-.h needed
development even if all were of the
best class of laborers, but when we
take into consideration how meagre
are our efforts, after our old-fashioned
methods, we are led to think it would
take centuries to bring about the con
dition of things now needed.
A successful system of immigration is
the thing needed, and nothing can be
made to take its place.
The scarcity of laborers in the South,
with the vast territory, and the great
demands for them, tend to demoralize,
and what would otherwise be proflta
Die is renaerea useless.
One of the most universal complaints
of our times is the unreliability
of labor. It is in demand, and yet
can not be controlled.
Immigration would certainly bring
more competition, and thereby enhance
the value of both capital and
labor.
Of course something should be done
in every act encouraging immigration
to restrict or hold it amenable to our
Christian civilization, so as not to be
crushed by it, and at the same time
make it a grand system for the educa
tioo aud higher developments of the
race.
To my mind immigration is one of
the finest opportunities for missionary
work ever furnished a people.
Some make this the great argument
I against immigration. They dread the
introduction of an element which will
bring into our midst Catholicism and
heathenism lest our Chriatianity becomes
marred aud our Protestantism
corrupted.
Such fears grow out of a want of a
I confidence in the solid forces of Chris|
tianiiy.
If it is desirable to convert the world
ito the truth by sending single missionaries
to the land of darkness then it
jstrikes me that to encourage immigration
is a much better plan than the
sending missionaries, since it would
make more solid our Christian forces
and lessen the power or opposition.
Wisely conducted, I believe that the
system of immigrationwould be the best
and fastest plan for Christianizing the
world and that we as a peope should
I exhaust our efforts in this direction bej
fore we consume too much time, money,
and men in our present missionary
projects.
{ The following is a letter addressed
by Mr. DuPre to each of the Committee
appointed by tbe farmers' club, and
should be attended to at once:
Abbeville C. H., 8. C.,
May 14,1888.
Dear Sir?
Having been honored with a position
on your Augusta National Exposition
Committee, I beg to make a few sug rootinno
xvhir?h i hone will meet with
your approval.
1st. It is very important that your
Committee have a meeting and organize
for work.
2nd. What is done should be done
at once in order to give all parties time
I to select and prepare for any exhibits
they propose to make.
3rd. 1 would suggest a meeting at
this place, on the 24th inst. or at the
latest on the 28th. Saleday will be almost
too late and the Court will then
be in session and interfere.
4th. It occurs to me that printed
lists of all known products of the
Field, Forest, Garden, Orchard, Mills,
* 1
Mines, &c., sent 10 every liuemgciii.
man asking him to select from said
list any article or articles which he
will agree to grow or provide would
awaken a general interest throughout
the country, and materially aid the
Committee in their work.
While these exhibits will be sent by
individuals, and individuals will compete
for premiums, yet the aggregate
of these will make up our County Exhibit,
and we may get that $1,000
Dollar prize.
No charge will be made for space in
the Exposition, and the Savannah
Valley and the A. & K. Railroads will
charge no freight on articles intended
for exhibitions, yet a small sum of
money should be raised to defray the
necessary expense or printing, postage,
&c. Yours very truly,
J. F. 0. DuPre.
i ^
Mr. Charlie Clinkscales returned
home from Lexington last Saturday.
He has been quite ill during
his stay there, and as soon as he was
able to travel he returned home. AVe
hope he may soon be restored to his
accustomed health.
The friends of Mr. and Mrs. John
T. Baskin, sympathize with them in
the loss of their little girl, who died
on the 16th instant.
