Firmness, both in suffering* and
exertion, is a character which I
would wish to possess.-I have al
ways despised the whining? yelp of
" complaint, and the cowardly feeble
rosolve.-BURNS,
"Going, going, gone," may be
aptly applied to thu South Caroli
na dispensary. Hasten the day
when the last word, GONE, can
be said with due emphasis.
? just reward has been meted
out to John G. Capers. Several
' years ago he roBOUuced.the Demo
cratic faith, to become an hireling
of the Republican party. Now the
latter has thrown him overboard
. by-electing E. F. Cochran, Esq.,
of Anderson, United States attor
ney for the district of South Caro
lina in his stead.
We were delightedjto learn from
the lips of Editor C. J. Terrell
that the Monitor would henceforth
eschew ali liquor advertisement.
The contracts for the liquor ad
vertisements which Mr. Terrell
has been publishing have all ex
. pired and he refuses to renew
them. Three out of the four coun
ty papers-the Monitor, News and
Advertiser-have taken au un
compromising stand against liquor
selling, both at home and abroad.
Traffic with the great railroad
systems is now up to the high
water mark. The passenger de
partment is worki?g o\er-time
hauling-Yankees to the ''Sunny
South", while the freight depart
r~~ment is rushing thousands of tons
of commercial lertilizers to the
interior. The S juthern railroad
has recently placed orders for
.v 8,729 freight oars in order to re
lieve the congestion caused by
shortage of cars.
No better dispensers can be
found than the three, Messrs.
E. C. Winn, W. E. Byrd and R.
T. Scurry, who were in charge at
the-time the dispensaries were
closed. Had the officials all along
the line, from the highest to the
lowest, discharged their respective
..duties as faithfully and honestly
as did.Edgefield's officials, the in
stitution would not now be so
. severely -criticised, or its life in*
such jeopardy. Whatwe'have said
of the Edgefield's dispensers
will apply with equal force to tho
county board..
Notwithstanding the fact that
Mr. E., J.-Watson, as immigration
commissioner, has labored un
ceasingly and with excellent re
sults for South Carolina, he is ap
preciated less at home than abroad.
The city of Augusta has raised
through the Chamber of Commerce
$40,000 which is to be be expended
in advertising and otherwise ad
vancing the city's interest. Mr.
Watson haB been offered the posi
tion of secretary of the Augusta
Chamber of Commerce which car
ries with it an annual salary of
- $3,000. Should he accept this flat- !
teripg offer his departure wonld
be a distinct loss to South Caroli
na.
Prohibition seems to be pro
hibiting very satisfactorily in
Edgefield. And it will continue to
prohibit if the would-be violators
are given to understand from the j
outset that every violation of the
law will be speedily ?nd severely
punished. Let the punishment be
a term on the chain gang instead
of a fine. Sentencing a blind tiger
to-pay a fine of a few dollars does
not amount to a hill of beans. His
money comes easy and goes easy.
What does he care for such so
called punishment.
Let The Rural Free Delivery
Routes be Continued.
Tidings from. Washington tell
us that the post office department
will at an early day begin to cut
off many of the rural free delivery
routes. In sections where they aro
not patronized or appreciated they
will be discontinued. We sincerely
trust that none in Edgefield coun
.ty will be lopped off, for we have
not all now that we are eutitbd
to. The routes that do not handle
as much as 2,000 pieces of mail a
mouth are doomed, so say those tu
authority iu Washington. . Their
discontinuance will be a great
misfortune to many rural sectious,
especially those remote from the
towns and railroads. By reason of
their being?isolated and sparsely
settled, these remote Bections need
the best of mail facilities. Further
more, the bad roads iu winter
make rural, free delivery almost
imperative in some localities. It
ts much easier and less expensive
foroueman to cai ry the mail to
twenty-five fanners than it is for"
i ? ummn ' i ? i "gm 11 m ypmmii
tfcose twenty-five farmers ?o send
each, a mau a goodly number of
miles to tho post office. Let's en
deavor through our representatives
ii* congress to have every rural
route in our county continued.
Edgefield Deeply Grieved Over
The Death of Mrs. L. R. Gwalt.
ney.
When the intelligence of the
death of Mrs. Sophie Lipscomb
Gwaltney, wife of Rev. Dr. L
|R. Gwaltney, reached Edgefield
last week there was much genuine
sorrow manifested on pvery hand.
|.This good woman, so widely be
loved wherever known, was boru,
reared and spent the major por
tiou of her life in our town. The
ol ler inhabitants kn^w ber from
early youth, wbilejit was the pleas
ure of the younger to kuow her
but a few* of her latter years;
however, all will cherieh her
memory with sincerest and deep
est affection.
The hearts of Edgefield frieude
share this deep sorrow aud go out
iii tenderest sympathy to the
affectionate bueband aud devoted
daugbtprs in tbie hour of affliction.
The Rome Tribune had the
following to say of Mrs. Gwalt
uey's death:
January the 14th, Sunday
morning, at 7:45, after months of
great suffering, Mrs. Sophie
Gwaltney, beloved wife of Dr.
Luther- Gwaltney, passed peace
fully away at her home in East
Rome.
The end was not wholly Un
expected and the loved ones from
a distance, aa those who had nur
tured the invalid in the long
period of ill health, surrounded
the bedside.
Triumphantly with a radiant
smile and song on her lips, the
patient sufferer closed her eyes
ou earth to open them in the laud
of the redeemed. ''0, Death where
is thy t'tiug: .0 Grave where is thy
victory."
-Yesterday afternoon nt 3:30
o'clock the fuueral services were
conducted at the Firet Baptist
church by the pastor, Dr. R. B.
Headden, assisted by Rev. G. G.
Syd nor.
As in softened tones the strains
of "Come Ye Disconsolate" f*:U
from the organ, the family fol
lowed the casket into the church.
Reverently Dr. Headden read
the lesson aud with sorrowing
hearts the great concourse of
friends and admirers bowed their
heads for the comforting prayer
that from Mr. Syduor's lips as
cended to the throne of grace
beseeching solace for the grief
stricken, the broken hearted.
Tenderly her pastor in a brief
peroration referred to the holy
life ol the gentle sleeper dwelling
upon her many virtues, her cour
age, patience, long suffering,
resignation and sublime faith.
Her home life was beyond com
pare and the dutis'3 of wifehood
and motherhood her richest jew-i
els to redound ever to the glory of j
ber memory.
The quartette sang "Rock cf j
?ges'.'and Mrs. Patton rendered
exquisitely, asa solo, "The Ho^ne
of the Soul."
AB a mark: of respect Shorter
College faculty and students at
tended the obsequies in a body
and as a testimonial of love and
respect laid two handsome floral
offerings upon the casket. The
Alumnae Association of Shorter
and the Mobley Park church, of
which Dr. Gwaltney is pastor,
also expressed their sympathy in
fragrant flowers beautifully woven
into the significant forms of^ an
anchor and harp. Several other
pretty pieces breathed the same
sweet message of love.
On Myrtle Hill, the services ar
rested at the church, were resumed
and all that was mortal of the
fondly loved wife and mother was
consigned to the last narrow home
there to rest until the Judgment
|?ay. '__
COLD SPRING.
Mrs. 0. 0. Timmormau, reborn
we reported last week as being
very ill, died at her home last
Saturday morning and was buried
at the Grove church Sunday after
noon. Bro. J. T., Littlejohn con
ducted the funeral service. Mrs.
Timmerman was tho daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Bussey. She
married Mr. 0. 0. Timmerman
about ten years ago. As a result)
of this union three bright children
were given, to them. Mrs. Timmer
man in early childhood learned
to love her Saviour. Shejoiued the
Grove church and has lived a cou-?
sistent christian life. She will be
missed in her home, community
and church, for she carried sun
shine every where she went. She
leaves a father, mother, two broth
ers, three sisters, a husband, three
children and a host of friends to
mourn her loss. We Bhall never
clasp her hand again in this
world, never hear her sweet voice
again, yet we ail hope to meet her
on the other shore. She said just
before dying that she wanted to j
rest, and we believe that she is[
now at rest with her Saviour,'rest,
sweet rest. May God comfort the
I bereaved ones.

Dangers of a Cold and How to
Avoid Them.
More fatalities have their origin
in or result from a cold than from
any other cause. This fact alone
should make people more careful
ae there ?B no danger whatever
from a cold wh?n it is properly
treated in the beginning. For
many years Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy has been recognized as
the most prompt and effectual
medicine in use for this disease.
It acts on nature's plan, loosens
the cough, relieves the lungs,
opens the " secretions and aids
nature in restoring the system to
a healthy condition. Sold by G.
L. Penn & Sou and M diciue

Women as Well as Men
Are Made Miserable by
Kidney Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis
courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor
and cheerfulness soon
(rj^j ? disappear when the kid
neys are out of order
or diseased.
Kidney trouble has
become so prevalent
that it is not uncommon
for a child to be born
? afflicted with weak kid
=- neys. If the child urin
ates too often, if the
urine scalds the flesh or if, v/hen the child
reaches an age when it should be able to
control the passage, it is yet afflicted with
bed-wetting, depend upon it. the caude of
the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment cf
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made mis
erable with kidney and bladder trouble,
and both need the same great remedy.
