"tHe - twelve counties that hav*
voted ouV the dispensary sol<

that nearly one-third of the dis
pensary has been abolished al
ready.
^ipfjjhe many large gathering!
?that'annually 'convene in Soutb'j
Carolina, two of the most im
portant-the Methodist confer
ence and the Baptist convention
will conveue iu less than teu days;
The former meets this year in
Spartanburg and . the latter in
Columbia. K
The Advertiser is iiot opposed
to the dispensary pfr se but is
opposed to the sale pf liquor in
any and every form. The dispeu
Bf>rs and assistant dispenser? iu
Edg* field have always been hon-j
estj-honorablo men-far above the
average- but jest because intoxi
cants are bottled by tb? stale and
sold by honest mi?:>; does nor make
them any less harmful and hurt
ful. : - '
The Standard Oil Klug will re
ceive his ruuual Thanksgiving!
. present in the form ? a $20,000,
000 check, this being Mr. Rocke
feller's dividend on his oil stock.
Wonder if he will be half as
thankful for this mun ficent sum
as the average newspaper mau
i would be for a Thanksgiving goo
ier?
Everybody who bas had any ex
perience with thrm at all, knows
that negroes who loaf around the
- towns make .undesirable farm
hands, even when they can be in
duced to work. The supervisor of I
H Spart?nburg county has r/iscover- [
--ed that the professional loafer is
foo worthless to make even a good
~- jepuviCt, and for that reason bas
refused to work convicted city
loafers upon the couD ty roads. As
a. result Spartanburg has es
tablished a municipal chain-gang.
\ In commenting upon the very
smaltamiiunt of drunkenness that
.is now seen ii ^hernkfifr'county
the Gaffney corres^^ot to The
State amcng other tS^S8 hT th?
following to say :
Cherokee, the first to vote out the
dispensary "arid the one who is
proud of setting the example to
TV her sister counties, works well
. indeed and few if any citizens of
Gaffney and Cherokee would have
the dispensary return."
The farm is not only the proper
place to rear boys bot.it is also the
--place to develop men. The follow
ing from the Greenville News are
?.. fitly spoken words:
"The two greatest institutions
of learning aw the college and the
farm, and it is a question which
does 1he best work. The graduatet
. of the farm is holding * the evens
in about as many > cases as the
graduate of the college. George
Washington was not a-cbllege man,
buUhe was a good farmer. If
x^ducation cou?? be brought to
NjBrirere^ever^ young mau could
have equal training on the farm
and in the college, then would we
have the ideal -education".
The president of one of the.
largest life insurance, companies,
whose salary for some years has
been $150,000,;na9 voluntarily re
quested that it be reduced to half
th?t amount. The office of presi
dent of such ? company is a sine
cure, and, with an army of sub
ordinate officials and clerks at
his beck and call to do the work,
we see no reason why he should
be paid $75,000, which is fifty
per cent more than the President
pf the . United States receives.
Were the home offices of large
life insurance companies located
in the south scores of capable men
cculd be found to fill such places
. at much smaller salaries.
Two representative citizens who
reside some distance from the
- county seat were in cur office a
few days ago and expressed I he
~ belief that the residents of tba
Taral districts were more anxious
to vote out the dispensary than
.rr-" ?'.?3$
the residents of the towns, because
the present mode of selling liquor
-iias - wrought greater demoraliza
tion in tho country that, in the
-towns. The young mon in some
jutions send and- get several
'?quarts or a demijohn and have
- neighborhood sprees, often carry
ing it to cburjb on,Sunday. ?Said
the gentlemen above alluded to :

[4th--the day on which the Va?'
issue Of .the Advertiser was pub
lished-^Gapt. Clintou Ward dieri
at his .stately ancestral hocn?'in
the prosperous-- town which be
founded andwbich bears his name.
His remains were interred in the
cemetery, within a stoue's throw
of his earthly borre.
During the major portion of
Capt. Ward's long life of 77 years
he was a very active man-active
in his private interests, active in
his community's,, county's and
state's affairs. In the troublous
times rf J76 he donned the red
shirt and rendered valuable ser
vice in that trying txigeucy. Lau
he served his county for two termt
in the legislature, having alai
been a director of the state peni
tentiary. As the weight of year*
pressed heavily upon him, caus
ing a decline in health, Cap?
; Ward was forced to remain clot
at home, yet he never forgot thos
who needed a helping hand. Hir
large heart was ever warm ant
tender, dispensing numberless
charities among the poor am
ueedy. The death of this splendid
citizen-a representative of th?
good , old days-is generally de
plored. Very deeply deplored by
those among whom he lived ano
who knew him best.

Over-Work Weakens
Your Kidneys.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
All the blood in your body passes through
your kidneys once every three minutes.
The kidneys are your
blood purifiers, they fil
ter out the waste or
impurities in the blood.
If they are sick or out
of order, they fall to do
their work.
Pains, aches and rheu
matism come from ex
cess of uric acid in the
blood, due to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
.heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ning in kidney trouble.
If you are sich you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraord nary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is
soon realized. 11 stands the highest for its
wonderful cures . if the most distressing cases
