C. ^-Published every Wednesday at 12 * ear la advanoe. Wednesday, Nov. 20, 1907 Let Us Take a Step Forward. Just now Abbeville bo ldlog a new city bail. Tbe oouoty U building a new court bouse, Tbe loe plant and iauDdry Is In oourse of construction. Private Individuals are spending thousands of dollars iu tbe erection ot sp endld homos of all kinds. Tbe Farmers Bank Is patting up a flue structure for Its own use, and for a post office, wltb apartments up stairs for tbe Masons. Dr. Simpson Is building obe or tbe finest dwelling bouses to be found In tbe up-country. Mr. Ellis bas Just finished three handsome dwellings.: Mr. Wilkinson has Just put tbe roof on a new dwelling boose. Mr. 8yfan has finished a large and handsome dwelling in Fort Pickens. Mr. W.Joel Smith has finished a commodious addition to his elegant home. Hon. John R. Blake contemplates big improvements on his bonseand lot. u" ' lTnataf Ripnoall la hnltrltn* a dwell log which will be one of the most desirable homes Id tbe city. Mrs. Harris Is building a nloe cottage on tbe street next door to Mrs. Love's borne. Besides tbe Improvements mentioned, there are no doabt many others wblcb we have overlooked. But except tbe Ice plant and tbe lanndry, no Industrial enterprise Is on foot. Abbeville needs another cotton mill, wblcb will give employment to tbe laboring man, and wbloh will add to tbe good cotton market for wblcb Abbeville Is noted. Tbe permanent growtb of a city Is largely due to Its Industrial enterprises. A community can do almost anything. Not so long ago tbe farmers built a large cotton warehouse, and they, with the help of tbe town of Abbeville could build another cotton mill. If we bad two cotton mills a good market would be assured lor all time to oomp, Two large cotton mllla would me all tbe cotton that comes to this market, and the competition would enure to the benefit of tbe cotton seller. And tbe Drenenceof the cotton mill would benefltalltbe town by putting tbe amount ol tbe pay roll into tbe bandsof tbe nilll operatives, and they In turn would pot a large per oent. of It In olredlatlon. If tbe people or me county woaia oeoame Interested, another cotton mill would be assured. Report Corrected. Mr. WadeOtttbran, of McCormlck, was Id town last week, and be gave Intereatlng talks of good people in bis town. He gave a eood picture of men and tbings about tbe borne city of tb% treat prohibition leader of tbU county. From Mr. Cotbran we learn tbat the needed whiskey Is sometimes ordered from Augusta. He corrected a report tbat bad gona abroad to tbe effect tbat somebody bad smuggled In a big Jug, ao tbat nobody would koowltbat be bad It. As we understood, the ground for tbe false report waa baaed on tbe fact tfiat tbe buyer, Instead of having bis Ju( packed In excelsior, ordered tbe shipper tc ;us0 rice, And because of tBIs faot tbe newi went abroad tbat the buyer of tbe liquor bad attempted conceal bla purchase. It Is Jusl outrageous tbat a man can't buy a little liquor in Augusta and bave bis Jug secojrelj ' 1 1 *ttI t hniif aomnhfv]c pilCJLtru JU a uauci vi n? , talking about It. If yon were going tc ship * Jug Id a barrel, can you think of a more suitable substitute for ezoelslor than rice?- Because a man uies tbe beat packing 'It do reaaoa why be abould be talked ' about. He that boys land, buys stones ; be tbat buys fish, buys bones; but be tbat buys good liquor buys nolblng else, If be doeso'l pack It Id a barrel of rloe. Coming to Town. Tbere seems to be Borne disposition on tbe part of many Industrious and worthy working people to oome to town. Mr. Hugb Monday bas bought a home, and will be one of us In a little time. Mr. Robert Bowie has bought a home, and Is employed at tbe power bouse, wbera the escaping home-made lightning 8trnok|hlm all In a beap last Monday. He doesn't "fool" with tbe switch board any more. Mr. John Bowie la negotiating for a borne. And various others are Bald to be oomlng. Thirty Cents Apiece. When a ship comes In with thirty million dollars in gold, the announcement follows tbat tbe panlo Is over. Tbirty million dollars 1b abont tbirty cents apiece for ns. Bnt, as another has said, It is not tbe laok of money that is earning tbe trouble now. It 1b lack of confidence tbat disturbs tbe money markets. Astonishing. Tbe Anderson Mall says the people of tbat town boy eggs In Atlanta. And tbe Spartanburg Herald iDtlmates tbat some of tbe farmers of tbat oounty buy Wealnrn oorn and bay wltb which to feed their horses. The Right Spfrli.
