Edenfield Advertiser J. Ii. . M IMS. - - - EDITOR tTERMS: ONE YEAR n 50 SIX MONTHS 75 WEDNESDAY, MAY 83, 1906. Work, every hour, paid o? un paid; see only that thoa work and thou canst not escape reward. Whether thy work, be line or coarse, planting? corn or writing -epics? so only it be honest work, done to thine own approbation, it shall earn a reward to the sen ses? as well as the thought. The award of a thing well done, is to have done it.-EMERSON. A Columbia magistrate has sent a negio to the chaingaug far twenty days for beating a mule unmercifully. If the law making it a misdemeanor to cruelly treat beasts of burden wero enforced in every community the raukB of the chaiigangs would be recruited by scons. As the law is not enforced, who can blame a half-starved, over-worked, cruelly treated mule for righting his own wrongs with his lieelB whenever au opportu nity offers itself? The report of the Son them Cot ton Association, which was issued on Monday, places the cottou acreage at 27,735,880 acres for 1906. The acreage for 1905 was 26,999,642, being 2.76 per cent . less than for 1906. South Caroli na's acreage was 2,212,807 last year and is estimated to be 2,163, 851 for 1906. While tha entiie acreage may be greater, it does not necessarily follow that the yield ?ill be proportionately Jar ger, for cotton i8 several weeks later than la?t year and the con ditions even new are unfavorable. The Supreme Court of the Uui ted States has hauded dowu a de cisi?n lo the effect that a state has the right to revoke the license of a foreign life insurance company doing busiuess in that state. TbiB will henceforth cause life insur ance compauies to toe the mark, ii they have not already been doii.g so, lest they be deprived of the right to do business. It becomes more and more evident that the agitation and recent investiga!iou have been of iucalcalable benefit to the insuring public. A contract ir? a life insurance company ia -.(probably a better piece of pioperty t ord a j- then ever before, in the his- . tory; of insurance. . We do not charge that it is true; I but it appears that some *of the fraternal orders are being prosti tuted by politicians. In making the announcement that a certain individual was an avowed candi, date for office, one of the daily papers made prominent mention of the fact that said candidate was among the leaders of one order and connected with a number of. others. A politician being a mem ber of so many orders leads one to suspect that the object for uniting with them was to enlist the support of men who otherwise could not be reached. The man who would thus endeavor to use a fraternal ordtr (o further selfish ends is unworthy membership in auy of them, and should be repu diated by his brethren. The State Democratic conven tion which was held in Columbia on Wednesday last was the most harmonious convention that has been held in South Carolina since the eighties. Only regular routine work was undertaken, and that was handled with the greatest pos sible dispatch. Hon. J. Wm. Thurmond was elected permanent president of the body without op position. Resolutions were adopted commending Senator Tillman ai d eudorbiLg the administration of Governor Hey ward. The one ring plan of conducting) the campaign-that of the state and congressional candidates making the rounds ol the coun'J ties together-was adopted. The opening of the political circus has been set for Juue 19th, the date ot the first campaign meeting. The Sooth Carolina Co-Educa tional Institute closes to-day the . most successful session in its his tory. And even before the close President Bailey bas been plan niug to make the session of 1906 07 eclipse it. The people of our town have always been loyal to this splendid institution but let us resolve here and now to rally to the support of Preside ut Bailey as we have never done brfoie. Who dares say that the South Carol ioa Co-Educational Iustitute has not been JEdgefield's greatest boon, morally, socially, intellect ually, commercially and finarci ally. Contrast iu your .ninds what Edgefield is to-cjay with what s'ie would have been had thjs institu-Jj tion not been established iu our midst. Work for the farther up building o? t^e S. C. C. I. In so doing you are working for the upbuilding of Edgefield, and the., advancement of your individual J, interests. Dedication Rod HUI Church? a. Great Feast For The ninds, Bod ies And Souls of Teeming Hun dreds of Men, Women And Children. (Communicated) "Wi?h tender and loviug hearts wo dedicate this church to the service of our Lord aud Master, Jesus Christ," were the words of Rev. J. T. Littlejohn on the occa sion, on Sunday Jast, of the dedi cation of the new Baptist church at Red Hill. The immense crowd of people present, conservatively estimated to be about 1200, evidenced the piea8Uie and gratification felt at the completion of perhaps the largest church building, with itp seating capacity of 700, iu Edge field county. For two or three years t je mem bers of the Red Hill church have felt the ueed of a larger house of worship, and having determined to undertake greater things for the Lord, went to work with a will that found a way to success. A handsome commodious structure, painted inside and out, now stand's as a monumeut to the good work of Pastor Littlejohn and his faithful co-laborers. The dedicatory exer ises were beautiful and impressive. Satur day and Sunday were spent in praise and thanksgiving services in gratitude for the church and in its dedication for holy purposes. A feature of the occasion was the presence of the Sunday school secretar}', Mr. Moore who address ed the assemblage on Saturday. Discussions by several present along the Jiro of Sunday school work were io.eresting and edifying aud showed the benefit already to be derived from the visits of tV?. new secretary in his efforts for the betterment of our Sunday schools. Many enjoyed lhat day's exer cise, but it was on Sunday that hundreds from . miles around gathered to hear our well known and well beloved Dr. T. M. Bai ley, who came to rejoice with the people and to preach the dedica* Hon sermon. In loving words be advised, admonished aud en couraged his friends and brethren as be feelingly spoke to ther*vast congregation. Having the build ing, other qualities needful for the model church, such as regular attendance, cheerful giving and "brethren dwelling in unity" were pointed out by Dr. Bailey as necessary qualities for a success ful church. A collection for Stale Missious was taken amounting to $25.00 or more. Before the hour cor this service arrived it was soon seen that scarcely hrlf could gnt in the church, spacious as it was. With characteristic thoughtful ness and resourcefulness. Rev. C. E. Burts, of Edgefield, .gather d .the overflow on the outside, and preached to: them .- so that-<all might hear "the word of God on that/day.. Two sermons were thus preached at the same time on the. same ground. It reminded one of the day s of our forefathers with their simplicity of'worship from rude altars erected in the midst of the forest. After the morning servie*, au intermission for dinner was given and such a dinner isecarcely seen, of such abundance and of such quality, enough for all and many more besides. Most people would have hesitated at the thought of preparing for a crowd numbering a thousand or more. But not so at Red Hill; the long tables were filled with meats, salads, breads and cake, and the management was such that iu an incredibly short time the wants of the hur dreds were supplied. There was no crowding and pushiDg around the tables. Good cheer abounded and social intercourse was freely eujoyed. The hospitality of the good peo ple of Red Hill is of such genuine ness and the welcome so cordial that it is not difficult amoLg such people to exercise that love and faith in our fellowman that Mr. Burts at the afternoon session de monstrated 60 clearly and force fully was the ouly true disciple ship. And only in proportion as we "Love one another" shall our sphere of usefulness and share in the uplifting of mankind increase for without this love we are "but sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal." The music that was interspersed during the day added to the pleas ure of the occasion for which credit is due Mrs W. E. Prescott aud the choir. Mr. Littlejohn spoke of what perfect unity prevailed among his people and as he dedicated the church to God, the thought occur red that surely in this life we reap in a measure what we sow. IQ this instance, this mau of God, having been strong and of good courage was richly rewarded by the place that he occupies in the hearts of his people in a consciousness of duty well doue. May that brotherly love always be among them and the Red Hill Baptist church continue to grow iu grace aud in good works.
