Editor Wilson Retires.
>lr. Hugii Wilson, who bas been connected
with the Press ami Banner ior fifty years, has
resigned tlic posit Ion of Kdltor. This does
not mean that he has severed his connection
with the paper or that his Interest in its welfare
bas abated one iota. The Press nnd
Banner represents Mr. Wilson's life work. It
is the product of his brain and euergy. He
could no more separate himself from it than
be could separate himself from the air that
he breaths or the food that he ea?s.
Mr. Wilson wished to be relieved of responsibility
>ir active service as editor, but be
will continue to man'fest the samp fiiendly
Interest in the welfuie ui the paper as in
times pusl.
The piopiletors of the paper have leaued
on Mr. Wilson since they cutne into posses
alon ol It. During me nve years mm ue tut*
been associated with as he has shown uo less
Interest than when he was sole proprietor.
Mr. Wllsou has prospered in his work. He
bas never been extravagant In his habits and
the Press and Banner, cared fcr, has brought
to him a competency of this world's goods.
There are few men of kindlier heart than
Mr. Wilson, and few men have been less
understood.
He has, in bis long career, made enemies by
his candor of expression. At times h s home
people bave risen in armB against him od
one measure or aDother, and with bettei
lights they have come to bis way of thinking.
Whatever his attitude bas been on any public
question, be has slood for It regardless 01
personal Interest. Kigbt or wrong, there are
few men who bave striven harder Jto live to
the principles tbey bave advocated.
While the Press and Banner will bave Mr
Wilson's good will and even bis active aid in
the future, as in the past, it is with the deepest
feeling of regret that we allow bis namt
to te removed from the head of the paper.
Unanimity and Municipal Progress
nirt apdftn told of a father who. on hU
death bed called all his bods to bis bedside
asked tbat a bundle of stioks be brought tc
him. Receiving the sticks be gave one to
one of bis sons aud asked him to break it.
It was easily done. The wise old man then
gave his son the bundle and asked him to
break It. This tbe>on could not do, and thus
they were taugbjLithe lesson tbat their
strength lay in unity.
we are what we sbould be we will realize
tbat we owe something to the .commuulty in
which we live as well as to ourselves It is a
responsibility that we cannot shift and one
\ which no true man cares to shift.
I We might Just as well meke up our minds
, tbat we cannot live to ourselves. A man
Who tries It is like a cellar bramble tbat can
only reflect the whiteness of its own sepulera.
Civic and municipal progress does not depend
alone on the moneyed men of a community.
It depends upon the unanimity 01
the citizenship. One or two men cannot
build a town, tbat requires courage and labor
on the part of every cetlzen of tbe town.
XjBUU UJou uao r
bis shoulders, and If each man tiles honestly
to discharge that responsibility In a town Id
this hitherto enveloped country nothing
ehort of Providential Interruption can keep
such a town from forging to the very front
There 1b nothing that will so cripple the
progress of a town as to have a clais of citizenship.
Who will decry progress or baulk
the;onward movement on account of petty
JealoslB or envious disposition.
A man can do Just about anything that be
wants to do. When he has fully determined
that be is going to accompllsn a certain
tblng and sets bis teeth to the task, the
aocompllsbment Is a certainty.
When a town makes up Its mind, as a
UBlt, that it will accomplish a certain tblng
I that tblng Is as good as secured. It may take
1 / a little time but every obstacle will be overthrown
one by one until the thing desired
Is a reality.

Pedlars Arrested.
Chief Riley and Police R. F. Medaln arres
ted two pedlars hers last week charged with
selling spectacles without a license.
This paper made notice last weefc of pedlars
going about th> county claiming to be Dr.
so and so of Atlanta, palming off eye glasses
on an unsuspecting public.
One pair of glasses sold by tbese parties
were examined by an expert here anO were
found to be nothing more than plain window
glass. No concavity or convexity whatever.
Just plain glass enclosed In rims washed In
gold and worth about thirty cents.
Such a glass, of course Is the proper thing to
use when the eye doesn't need glasses and
these psendo eye medicos carry along a full
line to suit such an emergency should It
arise. /
These pedlars seldom cover tb? same territory
twice, They have reasons of their own
for not dolne so. Of course there' are oculists
who make this territory who know tbeir business
but tbese fellows wbo get out Into tbe
byways and hedges wltb tbelr plain window
glass eye glasses, wltb no knowledge of tbe
eye or Its needs are to be tabooed.
Medici's in Session Last Friday.
The Abbeville County Medical Association
held its [regular monthly meeting here last
Friday.
Tbe new disease termed Pelagra was dis
o ussed. Tbe society had a case present as an
illustration to tbe discussion id band. The
disease seems to be spreading but tbe Medicos
;are not just sure in tbeir mind* yet
what causes the disease.
At the next reeulor meeting of the society
/ Dr, Babcock, of Columbia, will deliver an
address on the subject of Pelagra. Dr. Babcock
;has made~"a study of the disease .in
Italy where it is said the disease a very firm
bold on tbe people.
A Letter from Mr. Beal.
Calhoun Falls, S. C., June 2?, 1909.
Mr: Hugh Wilson, Abbeville, S.C.
Dear Sir:
I was in Charleston last week. I found tbe
Blind Tiger the most ardent Prohibitionist.
They say "vote the Dispensary out." The
Dispensary sells a lltttle. We want to sell it
all. At present with tbe Dispensary alive
they get S2 a quart for theirs but with the
Dispensary gone they can get more.
So all those who want the Dispensary
killed can join hands with the Charleston
Blind Tigers, Yours.

There ia1to be a weeding out of Inefficient
clerks In the different departments at Wash"
ingtcn In tbe mar future. Men and women
who bave grown gray In tbe service will be
returned, but tbeir salaries may be cut. But
tbe ax Is slated for those young men In tbe
department* wbo bold down lucrative clerkships
as a side line and study law as tbeir
principal oceupation, and young women
"whose cblef claims to seats In tbe office are
winning smiles or a pretty arrangement of
puffs."
Republicans are In favor of paying off tbeir
political debt to tbe negro here by giving blm
the Job of taking tbecensns. Tbe matter has ,
created much concern at Washington. The
minority of Congress will appeal to President
Taft. j

Tbe question la asked: Wbo will be tbe
gainer In tbe tariff review, tbe rich or the
poor man? If all questions were like this any '
fool could stand an examination and make a i

Tbe police are tbe butchers of Santiago at
present. Tbe butchers are out on strike and
there muot be meat to eat, so It Is up to tbe
police to furnish tbe meat. Trouble Is feared.
Farmers in Louisiana are much disturbed
over the appearand of a new pest to cotton
known as the Mexican flea. It la Bald that
the flea does more damage to cotton than the
boll weevil.
