THE ADVERTISER,
Edgefield, S. C.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 1902.
Wanted, by the town of
Edgefield public spirited men.
Edgefield needs an indus
trial awakening and quick
ening.
From a progressive and in
dustrial point of view Edge
field is a sleeping town locat
ed in the land of Nod.
Tea that is produced here
in South Carolina on the Pine
hurst farm,near Summerville,
has been adopted as the "of
ficial" tea of the presidential
mansion.
Edgefield has a score ai:d
more of men of unquestion
ed business accumen. All
we teed is for them to put
their shoulders to the wheel.
The annual statements of
our banks show deposits of
$186,000, and yet there is not
a wheel being turned in Edge
fied by Edgefield capital.
* Ping Pong, or table tennis,
is the latest game on the tap
is. For some time it has been
all the rage in England and
New England and is now
about to sieze upon Edgefield.
We have the men ; we have
the means; we have the sites
and meterial for building; we
iiave the demand for the man
ufactured products, then why
not establish the manufactur
ing enterprises ? Why not ?
fri ?fill f^riKiif?. fr? n 5f?r}
cup--unique and beautiful in
its conception and design
which was given to Mr. D
A. Tompkins a few days ago
by the city of Cincinnati. Mr
- Tompkins has been largely
instrumental in bringing about
closer trade relations between
this city and the New South,
and the cup was bestowed as
a token of the esteem of the
business men of the Queen
City.
itizen of Yorkville, S.
C., has brought suit against
^BPNjfoodmen of the World
for $25,000 damages The
plaintiff alleges that he sus-1
tained serious and permanent
injury when he was initiated
into the order by the local
camp. He claims that the
wooden goat which he was
forced to ride in a dark room
bucked with him in such a
manner as to result in painful
aud permanent injury. This
is a unique damage suit.
The crowds that returned
from the Exposition last week
laud and applaud the ?reat
show with ali the emphasis
that they can command .Many
more should go as Edgefield
has not sent her quota of vis
itors yet.
"GOD'S ACRE."
There is an ancient phrase
which designates a burial
ground as " God's acre."
Strangers, however, on view
ing our new cemetery lot
would call it the "potter's
field." Its neglected and
unkempt condition suggests a
ph ce for the ^burial of out
casts and criminals. This
plat of ground is hallowed and
sabered to relatives and friends
who have loved ones buried
there and the community at
large should respect their
feelings by taking immediate
steps to improve its condition.
Qne would not be surprised
at seeing such a burial ground
adjoining a frontier town of
the west, but every one must
admit that the cemetery in
question does not comport
with the ideals of Edgefield,
and her high sense of culture
and refinement. We do not
wish to refer to this subject
ad nauseam, but the exigency
of the case constrains us to
continne the agitation within
proper metes and bounds.
BEWARE, OH! BEWARE,
The operatives in the mills
of the Horse Creek valley who
are temporarily out of em
ployment as a result of the
recent iklockout" have friends
(?) galore who "sticketh clo
ser than a brother" in the
person of the office seekers,
or more properly, in this in
stance, vote seekers. We are
not given to questioning or
impugning the motives of
people, especially when en
gaged in good works, but in
tlie case in point it is so patent
that those who proffer their
sympathies are not all good
Samaritans.
The extent to which design
ing and unscrupulous politici
ans are not only deluding and
deceiving but arousing the
prejudice and inflaming the
minds of the many thousands
of good honest people who
labor in the cotton mills of the
state is alarming. It is a
great menace to the welfare
of our state, and forbodes a
future laden v/ith many ills.
Weare a friend to these people
as we are to all others who
earn a living by honest effort
and toil and we do not like to
see them thus imposed upon
nor do we like to see others
suffer from the effects of their
misguided ballot. Beware of
wolves in sheep's clothing.
Beware of politicians in the
guise of benefactors. Beware
of demagogues who pose as
statesmen.
The Railroad Bonds,
For several years past the
Pickeu8 and Wise townships
bonds, like Banquo's ghost, would
not down. A favorable settlement
is now, however, about to be ef
fected. At the mass meeting held
iu the court house last Saturday
the committee reported that the
bond-holders had agreed to accept
$30,000 for the $41,00 baud debt, it
cash was paid within 90 days. The
following resolution, wBioh was
offered by Ex-Gov. Sheppard, was
mnanimously adopted :
Resolved, That the committee
hnretofore charged with the duty
of looking after, the interest of the
towuships in the matter of rail
road bonds, are hereby authorized
to offer to the attorneys of the bono?
holds the. sum of $30,000 iu full
set lenient ofjthe entire liability
of Pickeu8 and Wise Townships on
account of snch bouds, to be paid
within 90 days after notice of the
acceptance of 6uch offer.
Resolved further, That in the
e^ent that said offer shall be ac
- ? . . r J-; ?foo ara irtRtrnct
by tne County Commissioners for
said townships-to be divided be
tween said townships in proportion
to the amount now out-standing
against them respectively-suffi
cient to raise said sum of 30,000.
and thereupon to negotiate for the
floating of said bonds, and for the
payment of said sum to the bond
holders.
The floating of the new boudB
has very properly beru left to the
judgement and discretion of the
committeo who can only act in
concert with the Board of County
Commissioners. It is ptobable
that 40-year bonds will be issued
bearing 5 per cent, interest, pay
able semi-aunually, which will
command a premium on the mar
ket. The tax payers of the two
townships are to te congratulated
upon securing inch a favorable
settlement.
