We solicit communications from every section of i | the county, but as our space is limited, we must remind those writing the necessity of beiDg brief.

Gov't Recort " E?V PUKE I Dea:h of Miss Ella Bradford. Our little town was thrown into a | state of intense sorrow and gloom yesterday morning at the announce- j ment of the death of Miss Ella | Bradford, which occurred at the resi- j dence of her brother, Mr. C. S. Bradford, of acute indigestion. Miss Bradford had been an invalid for years, but bore her affliction with patience and fortitude. The evening before her death she was apparently j ? L - - B L lL/\ vkl Ann I IU usual Iieail.ll eujujiuy mc- picaoures of home in her accustomed cheerful manner. There was no sign to warn the family that the black wings of the angel of death were hanging like a pall of darkness over ! their home, and ere the bright rays of the morrow's sun would warm the b)Som of mother earth, that happy family circle would be severed by the departure of the immortal spirit of a beloved member into the realms of the City of God to dwell forever- ( more in the eternal mansion prepared ] for these whose robes have been washed in the blood of the Lamb. < Being the possessor of a happy, ge- < nial and lovable disposition, her presence was like a benediction, shed- ? ing the fragance of a holy life and j the brightness of the Christian graces around those with whom j she came in contact. She was . beloved by her relatives and immediate friends and esteemed and re - It- H - ?1_ _ L t ' speciea dv roe ccmmuniiy at large. Truly it can be said of her "None knew her but to love her." Her remains were carried to ' Adrens, Ga., for interment in the fami'y burying grounds. We, with the entire community, mourn with the ' stricken relatives and extend to them our sincere sympathies. Why Not Do So? ' We understand that some of the people residing in that portion of the i town of Batesburg which lies in the J new county of Saluda, are favorable ! to the proposition of making it a part and parcel of the county of < Lexington. Under the new Consti- j tution this can be easily done if the ] people in that township so desire. The matter depends solely upon their ] decision. We trust that a petition j will be presented to the Governor ask j ing for an election on this subject and that the result will be favorable to the annexation. It will be more convenient for the people of the town to be in the same county and Lexirgton county will be the gainer by the addition of a desirable class of citizens, who will have less taxes to pay. < Twenty Years Proof.

The article on "Primary Pleading'', j published on the first page of this ! issue, was read by Miss Gertrude j Geiger before the recent meeting of the Teachers' Association at Swansea ; and is published by the request of that body. We have taken the liberty I of changing some of the sentences but, however, without distroying the sense, where the names of publishin^ house are used. To mention the names of business firms in communi- j cations is one of best and most effec- | tive means of advertising and firms are known to have paid large sums of money to have their | names mentioned only once in some articles. * ^ 1 Five Hundred Millions. As an exhibition of faith in our Government, and of patriotism in i our people, the recent demand for more than 8500,000,000 of bonds, netting only 3 per cent, interest for thirty years, was most inspiring. But, in view of the following facts, the eagerness was amazing. In 1870 the Equitable Life Assur <"i ? i-i-i i i rr n ance i>ocic-iy soia its oonus [j-muowment policies'] maturing iu twenty j years, requiring payment therefor in small annual instalments through- ! out the whole period, with a prov:"sion that, should a purchaser die at any time after purchase, his bond should become immediat ly payable without further payment of instalments. | In every year since then some of , those bonds have been paid in full, and yet most of those now i maturing are realizing much more ! I in interest than can ever be realized j 1 upon the bonds sought with so much I avidity a few days ago. The Equij table is btill selling similar bonds.
