THE ADVERTISER,
Edgefield, s. C.
WEDNESDAY, OCT. 21,1S03.
When a woman goes into
society her husband usually
goes into bankruptcy.
It's just this way :If ' you
wide tire your vehicle it will
not be necessary for you to
tire vour horse.-Ex.
t?
The Governor of North
Carolina might say to the Gov
ernor of South Carolina that
it is a- short time between ac
quittals.-Greenville News.
Hon. F. B. Gary has again
been honored by being ap
pointed to preside at a special
term of ?fvil Court to be held
at Lexington on November
the 16th.
lt is rather remarkable that
out of four newspapers pub
lished in Edgefield county,
none of them have a good
word for J, H. Tillman. On
the contrary, they all seem to
have a pretty poor opinion of
him.-Bamberg Herald.
Mr. E. D. Andrews, of
Greenwood, executor of the
estate of the late J. L. An
drews, has through his attor
neys, Sheppards and Grier,
brought suit against the South
ern railroad for $65,000 for
killing Mr. Andrews some
months ago.
Once again South Carolina
has had odium heaped upon
her by the recent flagrant mis
darriage of justice. Soon af
ter the verdict '"not gui'ty"
was flashed over the wires
from Lexington, the writer
was on a train in conversation
with a gentlemen, a non-resi
dent of this state, whose short
but significarttcomment was:
"If I eve*%ant to kill a man
Til entree him to South Caro
lina."
With the rendering of the
verdict " not guilty' ' the cur
tain has fallen upon the most
unfortunate tragedy that is
recorded upon. the pages of
South Carolina's history. And
now that James H. Tillman
has been relegated to private
life the press should withhold
further criticism. However,
in future should he aspire to
fill public office, thenthose who
mould and shape public senti
ment should do their[full duty
in the premises.
A resident of New York, a
Christian Scientist and be
liever in faith healing, failed
to provide a physician for his
little daughter who was strick
en with and subsequently
died of pneumonia. The fa
ther was indicted and con
victed of criminal negligence,
receiving a sentence of 500
days imprisonment. He
should not have been un
mindful of the fact that we
are enjoined to watch as well
as pray. That is, to use the
means at hand to accomplish
the desired' end while invo
king Heavenly aid.
Augusta is making great
preparations for the annual
reunion of the Confederate
veterans of Georgia which is
to be held November io-i?th.
South Carolina veterans are
invited. Free lodging and
meals will be provided for all
who are unable to defray their
own expenses. This will also
be a gala vacation for the
young people, Broad street
being the scene of a veritable
exposition midwajr. Augusta
will be in holiday attire and
will keep open house for her
country cousins.
We are not opposed to col
lege athletics when kept in
proper metes and bounds but
we are unalterably opposed
to certain popular games,
football, for instance-in
which brute force is at a pre
mium. The preparation for
and participation in the inter
collegiate knock-down-and
drag-out contests are extreme
ly demoralizing to the entire
student body of an institution
havipg a team that enters
them. Be it said to the credit
of Furman university that
she has no football team this
year. Let us hope that this
means more brain culture and
less brawn culture, while the
reverse seems to obtain at
pme institutions.
A FORLORN HOPE.
Those who are considerate
of the well being of society
and guard with a jealous eye
the good name of South Caro
lina had cherished the hope
that the day had passed in this
state when the unlawful shed
ding of human blood, even by
those in high position, would
go unavenged. This, how
ever, has become a forlorn
hope, a delusive phantom.
Furthermore, it is needless to
expect a realization of this
ideal condition as long as there
are some men who will swear
by the Holy Book and straight
way perjure themselves; as
long as there are incompetent,
if not dishonest, jurors, and
as long as designing and un
scrupulous lawyers, who are
a disgrace to the honorabl?
profession, clog the wheels of
justice.
RESOLUTIONS

Church on the Retirement of

Soft and crooked bones mean

Scott's Emulsion is the right
