The Press and Banner ABBEVILLE, S. C. Published Every Wednesday by The Press and Banner Company W. W. Bradley, W. R. Bradley, President. Vice-President W. T. Walker, Secretary and Manaftr Wednesday, Oct. 9, 1912 AN OPPORTUNITY. At the meeting of the State Bap tist Convention which will be held in Abbeville December 3 to 6, plans will i>" f?r tho ofituhliahmpnt r?f UC pCIIUV/l^U iVi WIIV wvhv??wm*.mv..v W a hospital under the auspices (if that denomination. The establishment of such an institution will prove of in estimable benefit to the community so fortunate us to be chosen.as the point of location. . . There are many reasons why the selection of Abbevilltf should ap peal to the Baptists us a-splendid place in which to locate this hospital, but while many of these reasons arc as patent as they are cogent there art* others which could be? presented to the representatives of the denomina tion while in session here, and some .steps should be taken to accomplish this result in a creditable manner. One reason that should appeal for the selection of Abbeville is that such an institution, while receiving the bulk Of its support from the en tire State, must of necessity depend 10 some extent upon the local sap port. There is not in Abbeville at present a single institution .of any character whatever to diviefe what ever suppert the community could afford. Besides, there is not in easy reach of the people of this section of South Carolina a hospital of the size and character of the institution which the Baptists can aud will establish. Promoters of this laudable enterprise have a well-founded hope that this i nstitution will, at no distant day, be more than State-wide in Its scope, and the city in.which the hospital is located will be benefitted in many ways. Other towns and cities of South Carolina, aware of the benefits inci dent to the establishment of such ?n institution in their midst; are going to make decided efforts to secure this hospital. While Abbeville has splen ?IW1 immnpotbnf seftirinp this Drize. it r" M ' mm -*-i- ? ; ? is not going to be located here with out an effort on the part of our peo ple. The time lias arrived for concerted action on the part of the community. There remain only about six weeks until the Baptists .meet,, and any proposition that Abbevillemay have to make should be put ia'some defi nite concrete shape before that time. Let us put our best foot foremost? and do it now. i SOME AMENDMENTS. At the coming general election there are three amendments to the Constitution to be voted upon, but , they are purely local in1 their applica tion. The following are the titles of the resolutions pertaining to these amendments: ? 'A Joint Resolution to Amend Section 7, Article VIII of the Con stitution, Relating /to Municipal Bonded Indebtedness, by Adding a Proviso Thereto as to the Town of Bishopville." /. UA Joint Resolution Proposing an Amendment to Article X of the Con stitution, by Adding Thereto Section 14a, to Empower the Cities of Charles ton and Beaufort to Assess Abutting Property for Permanent Improve ments." : "A Joint Resolution Proposing an Amendment to Article X of the Con stitution, by Adding Thereto Section 15, to Empower the Towns of Gaff ney and Woodruff and Cities of Ches ter and Georgetown to Assess Abut ting Property for Permanent Im provement." Just how the people of the entire State are to decide intelligently on these questions we do not know un less they take it for granted thit the representatives in the general assem blp of the communities affected would not have-sanctioned the pas sage of these resolutions unless such action was endorsed by their constit uents. This is the generally accepted view of such matters, but it does' seem that some provision mjghtbe! made for the settlement of such ques tions solely by the votes of those j communities immediately concerned,' because there might arise a case at! gome time in which, through lack of proper information, the voters in the) State at large might defeat the will of some particular community. ASYLUM BOND ISSUE. A 4- nrnnona 1 ulnnHnn f Kto trnait HIV gVUVIWi VtWWtVK VlUkJ J tbe voters will be called upon to de-: cide whether the State of South Car olina shall issue bonds to the amount of $1,000,000, bearing 4 per cent, in terest, for the purpose of making ad equate provision for the State Hos pital for the Insane. , The State has already purchased a large tract of land near Columbia for this purpose and has commenced the erection of buildings thereon. As i ; I we understand it, it is the purpose to gradually remove the institution from its present aite to the place se lected in the country. The issuance of the proposed bonds should furnish an amount ample for making every provision for the^com fort of the poor unfortunates, to whom the State owes the best care that she is able to provide. Just how much the property on which the Hospital plant is now lo cated could be made to bring we are unable -to say, but with judicious handling it nhould go a long ways towards the liquidation of the in creased debt which it is proposed to incurJorJJit^^ "BOOM 23." With an utter disregard for signs and portents that may be born of desperation or that may indicate an optimism that even the hodoo of the "jbJrtrlnn" nnmher 23 PAnnot damn en, the Bull Moose party has estab lished South Carolina headquarters in Room 23 of a Columbia hotel. Mr. W. P. Beard, of Abbeville, is the State secretary, and according to an article in the Columbia Record he proposes to travel the State in an au tomobile and distribute literature in I the interest of the new party. a The names of those present at the organization of the new party show that most of those identified with the, new party have been recruited from the ranks-of those who have for some time been identified with the Republican party, with an eye single to the loaves and fishes. The Bull Mooses can hope for noth ing in South Carolina, and it requires a considerable stretch of the imagina tion to scent a national victory for their party in 1912. s WRONG, NEIGHBOR. An article published in the Daily Mail of October 7th, written from Washington, Georgia, makes many claims lor that city as to the part its public men played in the Confeder acy. Among other thing** it claims that "the last Confederate Cabibet. meeting was held in the General Heard house, which was torn down and replaced by the elegant new Wilkes County court house." It is an undisputed fact that has gone down in history that the last Confed erate Cabinet meeting was held 1 the Burt House in this city, which it now occupied by Mr. J. S^Stark. nu" r%A<- full*? ranPa^Uifltnl mt*t 1 I1C I'UUIIICl, 1MIIJ ivfxvwvuvir., liere for the last time, and dif|)?nded. The article likewise claihis thai Jefferson Davis was born in Georgia. The fact is, he was born In Kentucky, in au adjoining county to that in which Lincoln was born. If the accuracy of the artfcle is to be judged by these two references, it will be of little value to history. A SURE ENOUGH FAIR Greenville Daily Piedmout. They are going to have a county fair down at Abbeville next-1 month, the 23rd, the 24th and the.?26th, be ing the dates, we believe. ;7lt is not going to be any half-way faireitber because the people of old Abbeville don't do any thing by halves.

There will be fine ear* of corn from almost every township in the county we dare say. Big' pumpkins, and they grow mighty big in Long Cane townships, will be on exhibition. Peavine hay, some of the best pea rine hay in the country grows in Donalds township, fodder, etc., will be on exhibition. Extraordinarily fine stalks of cotton will.-doubtless be exhibited by the good farmers of Due West, Lowndesville, Calhoun Falls, and other townships. Fine hogs and pigs and cows and sheep and goats will be put on. exhibition by the Abbeville county p&ple, who live at home and who do/^iot depend upon western markets * for . their meats. There will be poultry ex hibits galore?some of the best chick ens in South Carolina 'are raised at Bordeaux, McCormick, and Mount Carmel in Abbeville county.

And then there are "the fine horses which are.tb be ' found in every section of toe copnty? they will be on exhibition; No fair is complete without the la dies departments, no cotinty is better prepared to have a go6d ladies' de partment at a fair tlran Abbeville county for no county boasts of more industrious women. There will be preserves, made of good old Antre ville pears, peaches and apples, all sorts of jams, Pies, cakes, jellies, pickles, etc. And the needlework department will be a success for some of the best seamstresses in the world live in Abbeville county. "We are going to have a bi^ enter taining fair," writes Acting Secretary Renwick Bradley, "a fair wortty while. No expense is being spared to jnake it 8ucb. uooa races, -nying macmnes, splendid exhibits, shoVa galore." And Renwiek Bradley would have^sald it if it wasn't so. You can take his word for it for he is as good as bis word. Paint and Not r-'.n :?. Paint was never before m high as last year and this: about $2.35 a gallon Devoe and half-dollar Use for trash. What Is trash ? It looks like paint and pretends to be paint, but Isn't worth painting. It costs a paiuter's day's-work to put-on a gallon of paint, good or bad; and a paiuter's day's work is *8 or *4. Add that to the price of a gallon. That is the cost of a gallon.' Devoe is $5 or $6 a gallon; and trash a half-dollar less. But Devoe Is all paint and more too; you add oil to It; a gallon ig 5 or 6 quarts of perfect paint for the painter's pot. But trash is three-quarters two-third# or half paint; you pay a balf-dollar less for no-' body-knows-what-lt-is. .10 gallons Devoe is enough for the aver age job; it takes 15 to 20 gallons of trash. And the wear same way. Unfortunately, they look alike when first put-on. DEVOE P. 8. Spaed sells it j THE SWEETEST LIVES I (Elizabeth Barrett Browning) ?.
