A. Shealy, Supervisor. Glad He is Out. <;I am glad to quit political life for real business," said Mr. McLaurin, "and consider myself fortunate to be identified with tbe great industrial combination which will establish an $11,000,000 plant on the Georgia c^ast. Brunswick was selected because of its extraordinary fine harbor and because of the cheapness with which iron ore can be brought there as soon as the railway connecting it with Birmingham, Ala., is com I pleted. Our company has purchased this road and will utilize to it the extent of getting cheaper material than do the great mill owners of Pittsburg. We expect to make Brunswick one of the busiest manufacturing centres of the South and to send the output of the steel plant to every quarter of , the globe." [Mr. McLaurin may be dead politically, but the principles for which he so earnestly, so honestly snd so grandly contended will live until the end of time, gathering strength as the years roll by. Already they are bearing rich fruit, but alae! not in South riftrnlina?hut in Georeia. Not in CharlestoD?but in Brunswick. May our eyes be opened to our interest.? The Dispatch.J A Little Early Rise? Now and then, at bedtime will cure constipation, biliousness and liver troubles. DeWitt's Little Early Risers are the famous little pills that cure by arousing the secretions, moving the bowels gently, yet effectually, and giving such tone and strength to the glands of the stomach and liver that the cause of the trouble is removed entirely, and if their use is continued for a few days, there will be no return of the complaint Sold by The Kaufmann Drug Co. The ITogro Question. The Spartanburg Herald says while Booker Washington was preaching the doctrine oi moral and industrial advancement of the negro without thought of eocial or political equality on Virginia's sacred soil recently, th9 dispatches told of a series of lawless assaults upon negroes. In Indian Territory a store built by a negro, was blown up with dynamite; in Texas a negro was hanged by a mob; in Indiana a negro was whipped A minfl Ur? nrVtifoAono on/1 WltU CI UOi UCU nuc uj nuitcv/a^o auu in Illinois a negro boy was lynched and the tents of negro bridge builders were burned, while their occupants were shot in the woods. Only one of these four outrages occurred in the South and we are proud of it. In the course of time, as human events go, the people will realize that there is more than sentiment behind the demand that the South be left alone to settle its own race troubles. The Rusian Perfidy. London, May 6 ?Diplomatic circles are gravely concerned at Russia's actions in the Manchurian-Mongolian case. Even the friends of Russia admit that it is impossible to avoid Krir?flrinr? ocrainof. Vior frndav a rlirAf?f. ? ? J - accusation of perfidy. Her recent course both in the near and far east involved absolute defiance of the fundamental rules of international intercourse. High officials plainly state that she has lied to the nations and that the United States and Great Britian might as well unite to meet the important issue. A Farmer Straightened. Out. "A man living on a farm near here came in a short time ago completely doubled up with rheumatism. I handed him a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and told him to use it freely and if not satisfied after using it he need not pay a cent for it," says C. P. Rayder, of Pattens Mills, N. T. "A few days later be walked into the store as straight as a string and handed me a dollar saying, 'give me another bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. I want it in the house all the time for it cured me." For sale by The Kaufmann Drug Co.

New York [ "' Gave Himself A^ay. When Thomas drove up to deliver the usual quart of white mixture, the gentleman of the house blandly inquired: "Thomas, how many quarts of milk do you deliver daily to your customers?" "Ninety-one, sir." "And hnw manv r?nws have vou?" "Nine, sir." The gentleman made some remarks about an early spring and the state of the roads and then asked: "Thomas, how much milk per day do your cows average?" "Seven quarts, sir." "Ah?urn!'1 said the gentleman as he moved off. Thomas looked after him, scratch? d his head and all at once grew pale as he pulled out a short pencil and began to figure on the wagon cover: "Nine cows is nine, and I set down seven quarts under the cow and multiply. That's sixty-three quarts of milk. I told him I sold ninety-one quarts per day. Sixty-three from ninety-one leave twenty-eight and none to carry. Now, where do I get the rest of the milk? I'll be haDged if I naven't given myself away to one of my best customers by leaving a big cavity in the figures to be filled with water P Question Answered. Yes, August Flower still has Ihe largest 6ale of aDy medicine in the civilized world. Your mothers' and grandmothers' never thought of using anything else for Indigestion or Biliousness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart failure, etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and 8top fermentation of undigested food, regulate the action of the liver, stim ulate the nervous and organic action of the system, and that is all they took when dull and bad with head aches aDd other aches. You only need a few doses of Green's August Flower, in liquid form, to make you satisfied there i9 nothing serious the matter with you. You can get Dr. G. G.

I* London, May 6 ?The Daily Mail today publishes the first of the series of letters from Percivai Landon, their nr\nniol ArM?voor\on ^ on f" of AT a m 11 o I showing the American failure in the the Philippines. Mr. Landon declares that the American campaign has made no impression in the islands; that tbe firing j line is co-entensive with the coast i line and the feeling of utter insecuI rity prevails in the headquaiters. The correspondent asserts that in the country the people are depending entirely upon agriculture for their prosperity and the land is being largely abandoned. He says it is time for the United Slates to decide whether there might be a reconsideration of its policy in the past few j years. Quick Arrest. J. A. Guliedge of Verbena, Ala. was twice in the hospital from a severe case of piles causing 24 turners, j After doctors and all remedies failed, Bucklen's Arnica Sake quickly arrest ed further inflammation and cured him. It conquers aches and kills pain. 25c. The Kaufmann Drug Company, Druggist. 1 A Tends? Husband. Iq connection with a slight affection of Mrs. Ulysses S Grant's eves a very pretty story 13 told indicative of General Grant's tender devotion to her. When he was President, she became somewhat sensitive about her eyes?she suffered from strabismus? and conaulted a specialist to see what could be done for her. The specialist told her he thought he could improve her ejes, but the operation would be painful. She consulted he husband to learn whether he woDld advise the operation. ' Don't have ic done, dear," said the A V* AMA 1 V\ V Ar A 1 h A t? /? A A 1^ m 1 K \jreuemi, (jureoiu^ uci tuccaa wii u. bis two bands. "Let those dear eyes stay just as tbey are. If they were changed. I might not recognize my sweetheart." Ike Main Problem. Tbe main negro problem, eays the Carolina SpartaD, that forces itself on us just now is this; How many bales of cotton and bushels of corn can be made this yeat? While titled educators, humanitarians, theorists and wise and unwise people are discussing the negro problem, the negro is doing honor to his race by working with all hia might to make a fine crop. Just let the negro alone, except when you wish to give him a friendly pat on the shoulder, or show him some needed favor.
