Hon. Tom Watson has severed j
Bis connection with the magazine
tha; bears his name, having had
-Bomb disagreement with the New
York publishers. It ?B probable
that HUE brilliant Georgian will
. at tn early day begiu the publi
cation of a monthly magazine en
titled the "Jeffersonian."
Very little more need be expect
ed from the Cotton Growers' As
iociiation in this state this season.
Mr. Ellison Durant Smith, prosi
- dent of the South Carolina Branch
?si! the association, is soon to marry
a wife. Henc9, he will not care
whether the staple sells for five or j
-fifteen cents.,
No individaal-white or color-'
ed-^fiaB now a shadow cf excuse
for idling and loafing. There is a
strong demand everywhere for j
skilled and unskilled labor, and
the! able-bodied man who has no
means of support should be forced
to work for the county if he will
not work for himself or others.
Air persons who do not earn a
livelihood by honest toil are as so
many parasites upon a communi
ty, living by the eweat of other
people's brows.

and per?iatent insurance agent or
policy seeker, but-now the policy

Tba "inB'V wish to stay in.aud the |
"outs" desire to get in. A ?complete
reorganization, as far as practica
ble, would conduce to the greatest
good of the insured; this will
doubtless be the result of the
relentless war that ?B being waged.
That the gajiejaw is more rig
idly enforced in Edgefield county
now than during former years can
not be denied, yet there is room for
still* better enforcement. It be
hooves every citizen to exert him
self in creating a sentiment that
will restrain would-be violators
of this and all other laws. The
Boasou for shooting birds does not
. open until November the 15th.
Ail who slaughter the feathered
tribe, except on their own prem
ises, prior to that ^dale are viola
ting the law and should pay the
1 penalty.
sV. The very marked honor that
Bas been shown the lamented Sam
Jones puts to naught the false
standards and notions that have
existed in the minds of some, to
wit: that in order for a man to be
great he must have a long list of
military or civic titles affixed to
his name. This plain, humble,
unpretentious, unassuming son of
Georgia, was in every sense a great
man, one whose shoes many vain
glorious, seli'-esteeming, pompous
and so-called great mee were not
worthy to unlatch. Goodness is
the basic element of true gieat
ness. , _
County Fairs.
;. Not a few of the leading and'
most prosperous counties in the
state are now holding their annual
county fairs, in which the far
mers, stock -raisers, florists and
horticulturista Tare taking ? very
active interest. These occasions
not ;only advertise and attract
hundreds of people to a town but
arouse and stimulate farmers to
higher {and greater achievements
The vieing with each other in the
exhibition of their produce is al
ways attended with excellent and
lasting results.

; Blighting Effects of Whiskey.
Th? rp ie something essentially dp
grrdingnud eon tam mating about
'whiskey. Not only ifl the man wh<
drinks it injured to some ex'en
but the seller is frequently more
or less demoralized. There are, ol
course, some houe?t bar-keepers,
but the characters of many are
questioned. Receutly a fine of $500
(or serve a terra of six m uitbs on
tho public works) was imposed
upon an Augusta bar-keeper for
counterfeiting copyrighted labels
of a high-grade whisks}-, which he
placed on bottles containing in
ferior whiskey. And were not the
dispensary official's guilty of au
act close akin to this? Did they
not place tho official xx la ble upon
bottles that contained x liquor? It
seems that those who sell the stuff
for the state are none the less im
mune to the blighting efftctsof
whiskey than those who sell it for
personal gain.

COLD SPRING.
... The chain gang is camped here,
and are putting our roads-in good
condition. Capt. G. P. Sawyer has
charge of the gaug, which is com
posed of 13 prisoners, their sen
tences rangiug from ten days to
ten years. They have ll mules 2
wagons, scrape a road plow aud
one milch cow. Capt. Sawyer told
your correspondent that he would
averages miles,per day of road
working. We belisve that if the
county would give Capt. Sawyer
all the bauds that he could work
for ten years. Edgefield could
boast of her good roads. The sani
tary condition of camp seemed
to be good. The prisoners looked
well and hearty. Bro. Littlejohn
preached to them Sunday after
noon aud they seemed to enjo}' the
service. There is one suggestion
that we would like to make lo the,
proper authorities: Wa believe
that there ought to be a large tent
for the mules to stay under during
the cold rain and wind of winter.
Mr. George Quarles has pur
chased the farm of Mr. Pinson

We welcome Mr. Quarles to our
