Liberal contracts made for thc?-?, six, and twelve months THE ADVERTISER, Edgefield, S. C. WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 24, 1902. m TheHon. C. A. Wood's of ManonTw&q was unanimous ly e?et??oTvpresident of the South Carolina college has declined to accept the position. . Some of the cotton fields look as bare and barren now, although it is only September, as they usually do in Novem ber. That alone tells the tale. The crop is short and the price should be long, much longer than it is at present. it does not require such a stretch of the imagination to picture in one's mind trolley cars rolling in town stopping at bur momment as the cars roll in from Aiken and stop at the monument on Broad street,Augusta. These mental visions may become realities. Let us hope so. The business league by a unanimous vote instructed the committee on railroads, of which N G Evans, Esq., is ? chairman, t o confer with President Jackson of the Ai ken-Augusta electric road with the view of devising some means by which the owners of that road may be induced to build a road to Edgefield. The nearest point to Edgefield on the Aiken trol ley line is about 17 miles. By building only seventeen miles of road we could reach Au gusta by trolley. A majority of the members of the league are greatly elated over the prospect of securing this road. The editor of the News and Courier was recently asked by a corresoondent to decide this question : * Which out ranks in point of honor, the Governor of a State or a -United States Senator from the same State." After com menting at length an opinion was rendered favoring the Governor as ranking official. " All who consider the question thoughtfully will concur in the opinion that no. greater One of the most important ?and difficult questions that I will come before the next ?egis 1 iture is that of providing tensions for the deserving Confederate soldiers. It is un to continue to increase ie appropriation without first ??kingit impossible for un worthy camp followers to par cipate in the fund.

The present wholesale price low almostjequals-possibly in ?orne cases exceeds-the for ner retail price. The public ?chool board of Philadelphia ;he centre of one of the coal ;entres-has arranged for the importation of coal from Eng land for the winter. . Unless a compromise can be arranged with the coal miners much suffering from tho effect of cold will be experienced by thodestitute of the large cities. We doubt whether those with the means to buy fuel and those living in the country who are surrounded by hun dreds of acres of native forest have a proper appreci ation of the blessings bestow ed npon them. F URM AX UXIVERSITT. The equanimity of the Bap tist denomination in South Carolina is again disturbed. Following in the wake of the orphanage unpleasantness has come the Furman university trouble. It has been alleged for more than a year that a member of the faculty was not orthodox or sound in doc trinal teaching. For the sake of peace many friends of the university have borne and for borne ; knowing,too, that agi tation would tempoiarily, at least, result in injury to the honored institution. We do not know the nature of the charges nor whether there is just ground for them; but this we do know, that one of the greatest blows that the university has ever received the resignation of the great and good Dr A P Montague -came largely because Dr G B Moore was retained as one of the professors. In a letter published in a recent is sue of the Greenville News Dr Montague assigns this as one reason for severing his connection with the institu tion. It is reported that Dr 1 W Wingo, teacher of the Bi ble in Furman, has also re signed. Dr Montague has said that Dr Moore should not be retained as a member of the faculty and having been president of the university he is in a position to speak know ingly or as one having author ty' . - , It appears to the uninitiatea that the board of trustees has been temporizing with this matter long enough. The issue should be faced fairly, squarely, bravely. It is im vestigation. If it is shown that Dr Moore's teachings sa vor of infidelity his resigna rion should be demanded forth -with\ If on the contrary the allegations are untrue they should be withdrawn, thereby dissipating the rumors that are abroad in the land. Then, and not until then, will the Baptists of the state give this beloved institution that loyal support which should be ac corded it. We will say in passing, that it ill becomes a minister of the gospel, an ambassador of the Prince of Peace, to write of a brother in Christ as did Dr. Moore of Dr Montague in the 'Greenville News of the 16th inst. Would the great Ex emplar of whom Dr Moore speaks, have signed his name to an" article written in such a spirit and couched in such language ? Nay, nay.

County Superintend ute Orangeburg Patriot: As i partial recompense to a man who has done his duty at the ?xpenes of his pocket, the people of the state should give Hon. G. Duncan Bellinger a judgeship the first vacancy that occurs on the bench. This season's cotton mar ket in Edgefield is not sur passed by that of any town in this section of the state. We have carefully noted the local market quotations as given in many of the weekly papers and cotton was not quoted as high in any of them as it is selling for from the wagons on our streets. The season is on tor sow ing grain Every available acre should be sown in oats 0 r wheat. Provide now against the disasters that may befall next year's corn crop. The failure of a corn crop does not fall so heavy upon the farmer if an abundance of small grain has been sown. Oats sown in September and October on good land seldor1 fail. Do not procrastinate; sow oats now and sow wheat later. - ^?^?^^^UTHCAROLINA, 3 COUNTY OF EDGEFIELD. j Court of Common Pleas.-B C Warren against Emmie C Warren, et al.
