The Supreme Court has certainly
given the people of the Fork section
of this county a black eye by refusing
to declare the bonds issued in aid
of the construction of the Columbia,
i Newberry & Laurens Railroad invalid.
These people have bad a heavy bur*
den on their shoulders since the
road was built and contend thai ea
the stock was watered by the people
of the three Fork townships should
not be compelled to pay them.
The messenger of the Central
Rank of Oakland, Cal., was robbed

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
The days are warm,
We are planting corn.
The grippe has gone,
The martins have come.
The farmers are quite busy preparing
their lands and some complain
of being behind with their
work.
Mrs. W. A. Goodwin has been
quite sick for some time, but we$ are
glad to report her condition much
iznnroved.
i.
Mr. James Hall and wife of Thor,
visited relatives and friends in Gaston
recently.
We are under lasting obligations
for kindnesses and favors rendered
us by our jovial frieDd and popular
railroad agent, Mr. G. A. Goodwin.

Sfe;arkie: Mr. Books Yodco and Miss
Ida Dykes wended their way to Mr.
Edwin King's who joined them in the
holy bonds of wedlock. The boys
gave Ham pie an old time serenade.
May these young couples _ have [

ttnknown waters of the conjugal life.
May sncc 83 crown them.
Why some people will plow out in
the road and across the wagon rots
is something non comprehensible by
BDly. lis a certain and inevitable
fact that grain planted there wili
never germinate.
^Klondike" is a spunky man,
To go wheeling through that white,

Carrying the mail for Uocle Sam
And dropping sweat as fast as

The health of the Felix family is

March has behaved very gentlemanly
thus far.
And Brother Traveler thinks the

He thinks the dog is worth half as
much as a man. Well, he may be,
and there is a probability that some
dogs are worth more than some men.
Billy thinks in his bumble judgment
that the Legislature did the wise
thing. The only mistake he sees is,
the tax ought to have been one dollar
instead of fifty cents. Why do I
say so! Because there are so many
Worthless curs over ibe country kilJi

one to three and more leaving out
the white men's dogs. These Degrees
will huot and loaf around on
other people's lands. They pay
scarcely any tax, send their children

which is supported by the white

If the* cod fish became extinct
it would be a world-wide calamity,
because the oil that comes
from its liver surpasses all other
fats ia nourishing and life-givingproperties.
Thirty years ago
the proprietors of Scott's Emulsion
found a way of preparing*
cod liver oil so that everyone can
take it and get the full value of
the oil without the objectionable
taste. Scott's Emulsion is the
best thing in the world for weak,
backward children, thin, delicate
people, and all conditions of
wasting and lost strength.
