One fea ture of the work of the
?agricultural department iu Wash
ington for the past year was the
introduction of new plants, trees,
etc. Among those introduced is a
in?w orange that can be grown suc
cessfully 300 or 400 miles north
of the orange belt in Florida. Who
knows but that Edgefield's bill?
will yet be producing the golden
fruit, also orauge blossoms iu
ab undance for Hymen's purposes.
It is gratifying to see that th?
municipal screws are being tight
.cued in .those towns that have
voted put.the dispensary. Hereto
fore, the?fine for "plain . drunks"
in Spartanburg has been $2.50,
but now the mayor makes then
plank down $5. He is confident
; that the person arraigned bas pur
chased the booze from a tiger and
is -therefore a party to the viola
tion of law or has imported the
\. liquor, thereby setting others b
bad example.
According to a dispatch to one
;;of the daily papers, Saluda pub
lishes to tho world that DOW and
henceforth the motto, of her peo
.ple will be, "No whiskey." It mat
tera not whiit tho outcome ol
legislation upon' tho subject will
,be . the redonbtablo Saludiant
have rosolved to "stand pat" upon
their present platfurm of "nb
liquor." A high stand this. -We
commend the good citizens of the
.Cdaughter county aud pledge that
the mother's example will also be
? a worthy one.
Senator Cole L. Blease, m >mber
of the dispensary investigating
^committee, says* the amount be
^received was $299.75. We do not
believe his services worth tbie
amount or any part of it, and in
justice to the state he ought to
ask the Benate to fill a vacancy on
: the committee.-Chester Lantern.
With adverse criticism, similar
to the foregoing, coming fiom
every quarter., of th6 state,. Mr.
r. Blease, who is a candidate for
0governor,imust be a ?nan of con
X Bideiable "nerve" if he can. con-.
b^mplatei:v4fae .coming campaign
: without .the: gravest apprehens io?>'
J, aS4?:trt9^result.
It ia to be: hoped that the bill
-which Congressman Aiken has
1 - iaiioduced, providing for the in
crease of the salary of rural free
" delivery mail carriers to $900 per
; annum, will become a law. The
carrier? who mako their daily
^rfounds over bad roads, through
^ fair weather and foul, should be
',. well paid. Furthermore, it wijl in
crease the amount of money that
is paid out in tho south from the
national treasury. The southern
people will gladly take all that
_y can be "honestly obtained.
Causo ol Congested Courts.
That the proper administration
of justice in. South Carolina has
been retarded by congested calen
dara of the courts there can be no
question. With the hop1} of re
lieving this condition, the legis
lature of 1905 created two addi
. tional circuits and elected two
moro judges. Despite this enlarge
ment of the court machinery there
are ever and anon requests for
extra terms of court.
In discussing a measure that
has been introduced in the legis
lature, saving fonts purpose the
repeal of the law providing for
- these extra'sessions, Senator Hud
son, himself an ex-judge who wore
tie ermine with- honor and dis
tinction, used the followirg
" language,whicb coming from so ex
cellent an authority, is deserving
of more than passing notice:
"Judges are entirely too lenient
with lawyers, too accommodating
and often seeking the good will of
the bar rather than looking after
*the;real business of courts. The
dilatory methods now a custom
are a shame to the state and the
profession. So long as judges in
dulge lawyers in long-winded
speeches and dilatory tactics so
long will business be delayed.
Reformation is sadly needed."
Senator Hudson has placed the
blame where it properly belongs
Upon the judges and lawyer.-,
jurors are often criticised-some
times justly, at other times un
justly-but in this matter the
lau lt is nor with them.
If the judges would couduct
Ibe business of the courts with
reasonable dispatch., requiring
lawyers to be ready with tb'dr
caseB when they are called, not
:granting.a postponement or con
tinuance upon some flimsy ex
cuse, there would not any longer
be congested calendars or - a need
for otb?.-, t lian the regular terms
f co'&rt. Even the latter could
_ often be phortei ed, ? hereby effect
ing a saving to the taxpayers, '
?
Consistency Preferable to Gain,
The liqour dealers of Augusta
have been unusually active since
the dispensary was voted out?
using every means possible to
tempt those who have formed the
.liquor habit to purchase whiskey
from them. Being unable to reach
the people through all of the
papers of the county, sone of the
dealers have tacked signs here and
there to entrap the uuwary. Were
we disposed to do so, we couLd
reap a rich harvest of shekels
from these dealers by publishing
their advertisement . A stout re
fusal is given all such proposi
tions, howeve* temptisg.
' We advocated the votiDg out of
the dispensary and continue.tc
stand for sobriety and the sup
pression of the liquor traffic. How
inconsistent then it would be 01
?B to espouse the cause of certain
dealers,^ exploiting the merits of
I he ir liquors.
What would be your opinio'u ( f
an individual who would walk
the streets holding aloft two
placards to public gaze: oue ot
which advocated prohibition, an?
on th? other was emblazoned an
urgent appeal to parcha se such
and-such brand of liquor from
Mr. So-and-So. Were we to pre?
the claims of prohibition in om
column aud then iu another urg'
the purchase of certain Jiquon
the Advertiser would be :n tb
unfortunate plight o? the mai
with the antipodal placard?.
By advertising liqu. r we would
iocrease the jug trade; if m
did not WH wouI'd be taking tb<
dealers'^ money without givinp
?d<quate returns.
Call For Mass Meeting?.
Editor of Advertiser: The com
mittee of ten appointees by th?
meeting cf our citizens held anver
a' weeks ago in the court hous<
to inqnire and report what it wit
probably cost to establish W* e
Works aud Electric Ligb?s in our
town, have obtaiued information
sufficient to enable us to determim
what our act iou. in reference t<
*aid matters should be.
We therefore respectfully re
quest all the citizens of our town
who feel interested in the prog
ress of our community and the
prosperity of our people, to as
semble in our court house at foui
o'clock on Friday, the 9th iost,
to receive the report which th?
committee^deBires to submit, con
cerning tho matters so referred to
it. We-hope io see a large number
of our citizens attend this meeting.

COLD SPRING.
Just three months until the
meeting of the Southern Baptist
con ventr?n. Let each church in
t-heEdgeneld association make'an
earnest effort for Home "and For
eign missions at once.
We are glad to see that a war
has. started in our colleges against
foot and base ball. We never tried
to play but one game of foot ball
aud wo did not get through that
game. Our shirt and collar were
about torn off and our nose wa?
bleeding so we concluded to let
foot ball alone." I believe ever>
college ought to have a good gym
nasium and there would be no ex
cuse for foot and base ball as ex
ercise.
Some of our farmers are blue
otrer the drop off in cotton. If cot
ton goes back to twelve cents
again we will put our entire crop
two bales-on the market.
Miss Anna Johnson sent us J
lemon of her own raising tba'
weighed at least one pound. It ?
said.that this variety of lemons
has been .raised to weigh two and
a half pouuds.
Mr. J. Milton Bushey has re
signed a good pouition in Green

will soon paint their church. It
will be one of the best churches
iu the county when finished. Rose
Cottage is now being painted
white.
Mr. J. H..Bussoy has the finest
orchard in our county. He haB had
the orchard "trimmed up" and
white washed.
Tho ladies' convention that was
organized last May, auxiliary to
the Edgefield association, will

each Missionary B02?6ty in the
association will see that they are
represented.
