fc" (leefield Advertiser T.I'OS. J. ADAMS,.EDITOR WEDNESDAY, MAR. 13, 1895. Court Proceedings. lu the case of the State against Collins, the Modoc still case, the jury found a verdict of not guilty. On the following night the Modoc siill, mash, mush, liquor, and all, went up in flames. In the case of the State against Woodward, Faulkner, and Padgett, for robbing Mr. Jas. T. Ouzte, of Elmwood, the jury found Padgett guilty ; the other *,wo were acquit ted. he Slate against Ben Burton, as; ault of a high and aggravated i attire, p'eaded guilty and was i;: ed ten dollars. The State against A. B. Padgett and Arthur Cockrell, burglary and larceny. These were two young white men of this county, and they were charged with haviug broken into the house of a negro stealing some meat and dry goods. Padgett was acquitted, the other defendant was convicted. The State against John Henry Washington, house breaking and larceny, guilty. James Eargle, disposing of property under lien, not guilty. The State against Martin Du Bois, malicious mischief, not guilty. The State against Louisa Cain, arson, guilty and recommended to mercy. The plea of in santy was interposed in behalf of the de fendant. Aleck Watson, assault and bat tery, guilty. Edmund Green, larceny, guilty. . Whitfield Holloway, "obtaining "oods by false pretences, pleaded guilty. W. M. Tompkins, forgery, guil ty In the case of the State against Swearingen for obstructing the public highway, the verdict was guilt}-, and a fine imposed with a re moval of the obstruction. To-day, Tuesday the General Sessions was adjurned and the Common Picas called, which will probably continue throughout the week. The Atlanta Constitution as serts that the unprofitable price of cotton affects I he farmers less sorely that it does the business and trade of the South and of the country, and this statement is un .undoubtedly true, for as the Con stitution says : "The farmers can live. He has the sun and iho soil to sustain him. To produce cot ton at a loss hurts, but it doe's not paralyze him. He can most as suredly turn his attention to "something else." He can cease to plant cotton altogether and still i-urvive ; but, meanwhile, what is lo become of the business interests, the trade and commerce tbat have built themselves up and are sus tained entirely by the money that has been brought into the country by the sale of cotton and cotton goods?" Statistics show that the South Dtronghold of Potestantism, the proportion of Protestant males to total voters being 50.1 per cent, in the South Atlantic Division, and 36.5 per cent, in the South Central Division of the country, ai against 20.6 per cent, in the North Atlantic Division and 24.1 in the North Central Division. It is especially noticeable that while in Maine the popularion of Pro testant voters is but 14.9 per cent, and in Massachusetts 15.7; in South Carolina it is 71.1 per cent, aud in North Carolina 66.4 per cent. An Open Confession. Chairman Wilson the leader of the administration forces in the IIou.se, in a letter to the World confesse3 and avoids the impor tence of the deceased Congress as follows : Tho impotence of Congress in dealing with financial legislation during the session just ended was due to the fact that under univer sal suffrage Congress represents the people of the country. Con gress is the mirror of the people's views. The people have not made up their minds on the financial question, and CongrDss mirrors the different shades of belief and opinion. A very expensive looking glass. Mrs. LeCtnte, the State Libra rian, requests the statement made for the benefit of all concerned all over the State that tho copies of the acts of the last session of the legislature will not be in her honds ready for distribution for more than a month yet. There ias been some delay in getting the official copies of the acts in the hands of the State printer, it eeenis. Now, ho's after ducke. Who? Cleveland. Tb.3 very morning after Con gress adjourned President Cleve land set off down thorPotomac with his duck bog, hunting ducks. The manager of one of the great hotels of St. Augurtine, Fla., is quoted as saying. "Nota box of decent oranges can be had in the State." An excellent likeness of Judge Norton will be placed in the Su preme Court room at Columbia, S. C., amoug the picture:-? of the oth er judges of the State. The President has appointed Hon. W. L. Wilson of West Virgi nia, to be Postmaster General, in the place of Mr. Bissel!, resigned, and the Senate has confirmed the appointment. Dun and Bradstreet in their re view of trade say a generally im proved feeling is noticeable. Fail ures for the week have been 234 in the United States against 248 last year, and 58 in Canada against 60 last year. The Southern Society of New York has elected the following of ficers : President, John R. Abney ; vice-President, Hugh S. Thomp son ; Secretary, George Gordon Battle; Treasurer, Heth L. Or ton. If loveland and the fifty-third Congress could have 'kerilumu*ed at the sams time it would have been a fortunate thing, but alas, we shall have Cleveland two years longer. All we can do in Edge field is to build the cotton factoiy and let Cleveland rip. The Governor has receiver a tel gram from Chief Constable Holly in Charleston, saying he had seiz ed eight eight half barrels of whifkey and twenty-five hundred pounds of bacon. Nothing more could be learned, but it is suppos ed the v/hiskey was shipped Hid den under the bacon in some way. When the bill repealing the law which permits saloon keepers to sell liquors in quantities less than one quart, to bo drank on the premises, passed the Delaware House, Mrs. James L. Wolcott, wife of Chancellor Wolcott, began to sing the doxology, which was taken up by about fifty women present. CORRESPONDENCE "When the Wicked Entice Thee Consent Thou a ot." It is conceded that- the United States is the richest, greatest, and most progressive nation touched by the rays of the sun. When ve contemplate the great and unsur passed achievemenfs of her sons, the progress they have made in art, war, politics, education, and religion; her great agricultural and manufacturing interests; her many and unequaled public insti tutions, our souls are thrilled with joy and our hearts go out in grati tude to the source of all good for such a richly _endcwed mother land^.^---'-^ All are not, and indeed cannot, be born in affluence and raised in the lap of luxury, but the ave nues of success are broad and fruitful, and we should be proud that in our birth-place we have an invaluable heritage. It is evident, however, that all of our advantages are no safe guard against error, danger, and corruption. The very greatness of a nation, if it be corrupt and in error, renders that condition more hazardous. From the first political institu tion in Egypt, down through suc cessive ages, even to the present time, wrong has been avenged ; governments have been destroyed, and kingdoms have been demol ished on account of corruption and perfidy. This we cannot de !ny. History speaks in thunder tones along this line and now has many indelible blots on its pages. We have now an impending politi cal and financial crisis. Indeed it is upon us. The cries of the op pressed and distressed cannot fail to reach our ears. Charges cf cor ruption, treachery, and perfidy are heralded from door to door, and arrows of denunciation are hurl ed even at the executive in his mansion. Is our entire political structure rotten to the core, or is the entire nation irretrievably corrupt? Must our government, our protection bought by the blood of our fore fathers-established by their pa triotic fidelity-be destroyed by the duplicity of our representa tives? Has toa sun of prosperity set upon this nation that ought to bo in the zenith of her glory? God forbid. The present or super structure may, yea, must fall, but men of unparalled statesmanship, and burning patriotism gave us the fundamental principles of our government and these will live forever. Parties aro now divided and sub-divided, each faction offering means of relief, but the brazen serpent has not j'et been lifted up in the wilderness of agita tion, unless it be the cry of reFORM that has shaken our old Palmetto State from centre to circumference. If Ibis be the means of deliverance (and I believe it is, if properly propa gated) then let every lover of his country and of his fellowmen on list under its banner. Carefully and scrupulously .select men to steer your (or our) boat, raise walls of defense against traitors, and may such a tidal wave of re form spread over these United States of ours, as shall utterly ex terminate our wicked, polluted ad ministrators and sou'such seeds of right as shall cause the sun of prosperity once more to ri?e and forever shine over this benighted land of ours. Our traitorous rep resentatives have polluted the name Democracy, but its princi ples are yet untravelled and pure and will never die. The princi ples of democracy have never de ceived us, but our representatives have sacrificed us and its princi ples at the altor of selfishness and the almighty dollar. Platfor ns are supposed to express the wishes of the people but they are appar ently worthless nowadays. The platform set forth by the Chicago convention was the best the party had ever presented, yet its de mands have been wantonly dis regarded and trampled upon as our administration proves. Stim ulated by selfishness, attired in hypocrisy, our leaders rode the platform into office, started the horse for self promotion, and have cruelly swept every vestige of hope and expectation fr?ai the people. Let the men chosen to repre sent us be like Henry Clay, who said, "I had rather be right than be President," and ever remember that many politicians and office seekers are born of selfishness and many such will answer our call. Yea, be not too credulous; we have been betrayed once, we may be again. Many a blatant cry is and will be raised in behalf of our cause propelled only by Bei?et) motives und we may not be able to discriminate however discreet we may be. P. Y. D. Joe Edward's Plan for Getting1 Together. MK. EDITOR: In the multiplici ty of counsel lhere is wisdom. Here is ray pian for harmonizing the warring factions in Edgefield County : Let the County Convention be called, as suggested in your col umns a week or two ago, giving to each and all factions a. fair r< pre sentation in delegates. When the convention assembles in flie court bouse, lock the doors securely so that no one can g'-:t out. Then feed the Reformers on coi ton-seed meal bread and the Antis on sour buttermilk for two days or long?r, the first six or the six first who walk out to be declared the nomi nees of tho conven'ion and the delegates to the Constitutional Convention. Pugh Jones of Edgefield an Anti has ugreed to furnish the bread and Coroner Rauton will be asked to furnish the buttermilk, .JOSEPH B. EDWARDS. Daniel P. 0. What is Transpiring: at Cleora. MR. EDITOR: I have been think ing for sometime I would give you a few dots from Cleora, but. have never made the attempt before. Well we hav3 had some fair weather at last and the farmers are making good use of it. Grain is all killed by the recent cold snap and some of the farmers are sowing over. J. H. Reel has sow ed the third time ; twice the cold killed them and now the wild tur keys are eating them np. There will be slim chance for graiu around Cleora this year. Miss Emma Foss of Hepzibah Ga. is teachinga flourishing school at the Brunson school house. She is loved by all of her pupils and patrons. We als*? have a large Sunday School every Sunday at the school house and preaching once a month. Mr. Mealing preaches for us every first Sunday morning and is liked by every body. We have four stores in almost hollering distance and all aro do ing a good business. Mr. W. T. Reel has a large stock of dry goods boots shoes etc. Just take tho Cleora Courier and read his ad vertisements and come and buy. All Cleora needs now is a cotton factory and a rail road. Mr. W. P. Brunson has put up a ginning and grist mill which is very convenient. Miss Etta Strom has returned from a pleasant visit on the Sa luda side and the boys are wear ing long faces over there, but they are smiling one more time around Cleora. SNIDER. The Roads, thc Cotton Facto ry for Edgefield, and Divers Other Things. An attack of that dismal mala dy, the grip, the dreadful condi tion of the roads, and a brief ab sence from the State have all stood in the way and preveuted my in flicting your readers with aili je tions both terrestial and celestial, as Bill A rp would say. What will be the outcome of the roads is now bothering me and should engage the attention of every one, high and low, rich and poor. The mads have been bad and are getting no better fast. From timi immemorial bad, they are now a disgrace to our people gullies, unsafe in the day time and dangerous at night. As the new plan is an experiment we can not yet tell if ii wili be successful. We certainly wish the superinten dent or supervisor success in his Herculean undertaking, knowing that things cannot be made worse even if efforts in that direc tion were tried. A country is judged by the vir tue and intelligence of its citizens, by ?ts laws and the observance of them, by its churches, school houses and public buildings, and last, but not least,- by its roads, dirt and rail road, particularly the former. With, good roadi our lands would increase in value, our visit?, both business and social would be pleasant, our horses and mules would be less expense to us, and we would be no longer liable to the charge o? being in "cohoot" with the repairer, and seller of ve hicle?. In the railroad line we need at present the continuation of the old Blue Ridge road, which in seeking salt water will, of course, come through Edgefield, a short space only separating us from Greenwood where connection c?-n be made. To secure this road vigorous and systematic work is needed. The sinews of war, mon ey, can be obtained if proper steps are taken. Let our monied men take hold and get the help of out side capital and the thing is tm fait accompli. By the way, the cotton factory should not be allowed to drop. Let the people decide it shall be. If built the population of the town will grow larger, and the wealth of the community greater. Comparisons are said to be odi ous, but they are not always so. Let Edgefield be \compared with Aiken where they have an artesian well and streets lighted by elec tricity. 'Tis true we have not the prestige of wealth which Aiken has obtained, and we do not in the summer live on goose-berries and on Yankees in the winter, but our climate is just as good, our roads not so good, our location superior, giving drainage and fine scenery which combined render us equal to that noted health resort. I con fess we are behind Aiken in public spirit. Let us all labor unselfish ly and earnestly for the good of our town and county. - I found the people of Georgia as dissatisfied with their surround ings as we on this side are. When will we be satisfied? I suppose the millennium will bring about that blissful slate. OLD REGIME. Round About Denny's. Mn. EDITOR: After long silence I again ask for space in your col umns for a few "dots from Den ny's." Xmas has come and gone, and a gr-at many of .our young peopln have married. Our bashful young friend Waller Y arborons li was one among th? number who decided h* could not walk alone, ile and Miss Annie Coleman were happily married Hutt cold second Sunday in January, hy R?v.

The bad weather has very much delayed th? farmers in their work ; they anticipate a late crop this year. The oat crop is almost ruined by the continued cold. Our young friend Miss Mattie Forrest has been sick for three or four weeks, aud, we can't say she improves an}' whatever ; but hope she will soon be herself again, as we all miss her so much at church. The writer had tho pleasure of attending a pound partylast Fri day night March 1st at Mr. Mose Walton's. The night was a rainy one, but a large crowd gathered around a long table which was .bountifully spread with turkeys, cakes, candies, and everything nice. It was given, by Dr. J. J. Kirksey and Prof. Tom Jones, a very bashful young teacher at Centennial. We did not ste much of Prof. Jones as he did not take any part in the plays. I wonder if he enjoyed it? He does'ut seem to be much of a lady's man, but so much the better for him I ex pect. It is reported that there will be orange blossoms near Denny's soon. Miss Alice Cockerel 1 one of Den ny's charming young ladies speaks of returning to Newberry for the summer, we will ask James B. to see about that. M. Denny's, S. CV, March 6, '95. Millions in Monazite. SPARTANBURG, March 8.-A visit to the monazite region about Gaff? ney indicates that the search for it amounts to a craze. Mon, wo men and children talk about mon azite. They dream about it, and they would eat it if it could be prepared 30 that it would bepala tab'e. We saw a little three-year old girl actually crying-even bawling for "zite," or the 'yaller sand." She wanted it to play with. While rambling around with a prospector we saw two females at a distance. I asked him if the women were not digging for it. He said it was very proba bl?-. After a while they emerged from the creek bank and proved tc be two little girls of the "Les Miserable" class. They, in their dense igno rance and heathenism, had hardly heard of monazite. When asked what they were doing the reply was: "Hunfih* elder to make pipes. Milter, I reck'n you dou'r chaw lerbaeeer?" But thos? two aro about as solitary as lin; "solitary" crystals of y silow sand. Every landholder who has it small stream or marshy place on bis farm is interested. The streams are kept muddy day and night. One will find holes dug ulong the banks of every creek and branch. Prospectors from various places are .searching for the yellow sand. It amounts to a cr;!/.". Those who lease pay one sixth lo one-fourth of the gross proceed?. In some instances they buy the monazite privilege for a specified amount. In one caso $200 an acre was paid. Subscribe t? the Edgefield AD V KKTIblCR. To Arms-Fraternal Arms.
