The Athens dispensary, it is

Governor McSweeney has ap
pointed Miss Annabel Prentiss, ol
Charleston, to fill his scholarship
in the South Carolina Medical
College. Miss Prentiss is 8 bright
and enihusiastsc student, and the
first woman to receive this
appointment. As this College has J
only recently opened its doors to
women, South Carolina women
should appreciate this recogition
from Governor McSweeney.-The

I place the philosophy of Frank

of those who would put a price up
on the head of an American soldier
and justify a war of conquest up
on the ground that it will pay.
The D?mocratie party is in favor
of the expansion of trade. It
would extend our trade by every

Noone has a right to expect
from society un re than a fair
compensation for the services
which he renders to society. If ]>e
secures more it is at the expense
of some one else. It is no injustice
to him to prevent h;s doing in
justice to another. To him who
. would, either through class legisla

: necessary legislaton, trespass upon
the rights of another the Demo
eratic party says, "Thou shalt not."

The Profitable Pecan.
That pecans make an acre of
Georgia ground worth $1,000
should receive the attention of
every man who thinks there is
mjney in nothing but cotton.
Let us make the most we can of
our cotton, but let us at the same
tims buttress our situation by
those other avenues of profit which,
more -than anything ?ISA, can cut
down the cotton acreage.
Albany was once nothing but

The County to be Sued.
The following, bearing on a mat
ter of interest to Engefield county,
we clip from the Augusta. Chroni
cle :
ridgefield, S. C., Oct. 12-The
wife of Jim McKie, deceased,
whom it is charged was lynched at
Republican Church two years ago,
has applied to the Court of Probate
of this county for letters of admin
istration on his estate, the purpose
being to recover $2,000 from the
county under the late constitution
of this state allowiug said eum of
money to the personal re
presentative of any one taken
from an officer and lynched
Solicitor J. William Thurmord
was interviewed by your
correspondent to-day on the sub
ject and as to the fiual outcome of
the suit if filed. His position in
favor of the county seems to be
unanswereble. Yonrcorrespondent
asked Mr. Thurmond the follow
ing questions : Do you think Jim
McKie and Luther Sullivan ae?as
sinaton Mrs. Atkinson? He replied
as follows: "I investigated the
case and have no doubt of it ".
"Well, Mr. Thurmond, do you
thick there is any merit in (he
case to be instituted by th? per
sonal representative of tho two
deceased npgroes?" ?
He said : "In reply to that
question I will say that they have
no claim founded on iuntice.
Those negroes became outlaws
and forfeited their 'ives by com
mitting a most brutal crime, that
of assaulting an innocent white
woman with a largt family of
children without . the slightest
reason or excuse."
Mr. Thurmond went on the Ba/:
"Now, of course, I am opposed to
lynch law, but in this case death
to those darkies was an inevitable
result of thfir dastardly conduct,
and the only criticism I have to
make on their manner of dpath is
that the sherill' did not hang them
after trial.'"
Mr. Thurmond then went on to
say; "Is it not' abai?rd lo say that
he personal repr?sentatives of
' hos?! two negro assassins must be
ewarded handsomely and the
ersonal representatives of Mrs.
Adkinson must content themselves
with grief, heartache and a horrible
remembrance of a good woman's
deceaae? The constitution of the
Uni 11 States and our own provide
that every person shall have equal
protection under the laws. Mrs.
Adkinson's killing was certainly
unlawful. Nothing more cun be
said of the killing of the darkies.
Would there be justice or equal
protection in giving the personal
representatives of the negroes and
not the personal representatives
of Mrs. Adkiuson a remedy
against the county undor tho
circumstances?"
"How about the costs?" was
asked Mr. Thurmond.
He replied: "There are at
torneys h?re who will resist ?ucb
a case without cost to the county."
DO YOU GET UP
WITH A LAME BACK?
Kidney Trouble Makes You Miserable.
Almost everybody who reads the news
papers is sure to know of the wonderful
cures made by Dr.
i Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
j the great kidney, liver
L and bladder remedy.'
It is the great medi
cal triumph of the nine
teenth century; dis
covered after years of
scientific research by
Dr. Kiimer, the emi
nent kidney and blad
der specialist, and ls
wonderfully successful- in promptly curing
lame back, kidney, bladder, uric acid trou
bles and Bright's Disease, which is the worst
form of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root ls not rec
ommended for everything but if you have kid
ney, liver or bladder trouble it will be found
just the remedy you need. It has been tested
in so many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to pur
chase relief and has proved so successful in
every case that a special arrangement has
been made by which all readers of this paper
who have not already tried it, may have a
sample bottle sent free by mail, also a book
telling more about Swamp-Root and how to
find out if you have kidney or bladder trouble.
