WE L1XM6T0M DISPATCH. Wednesday, March 22, 1905. At Some aad Some. Farm work is progressing nicely. The summer girl will soon make her eppearance. Apparently the Japs have the Russian Bear on the trot. Patronize those who help to improve your town and county. The broken window in the Department Store has been replaced by a handsome plate glass pane. Lemael M. Sox, from the Emanuel settlement, was in town last week and added his name to our subscription list. The backbone of winter has not yet been broken. Blankets and overcoats will come in mighty handy bye and bye. Dr. Julian E Kaufmano is making arrangements to build a handsome and modern residence on his lot in rear of his drug store. Qrtmo /tnffnn in hflincr sold in this MUUiV WWWM ?w ? ? market. Bat the bales are like angels' visits in that that they are few and far betweeD. Mr. G. S. Bauch has had his handsome residence on Upper Main street repainted, which makes it one of the most desirable residences in town. Mr. J. A. Calk, who resides on B. F. D. No. 2, oat from this place, tailed in Friday and went on his way rejoicing after leaving his cart wheel. - Lexington needs a syBtem of waterwaterworks for domestic and sanitary purposes, as well as protection against fire, and an electric plant for light and power purposes. Mrs. Maggie Harman has returned to Lexington. She has been spending sometime in Batesburg with her grandson, Mr. Killian Harman. If oar people would only get together and work for Lexington there would besuch improvements in the old - t - _ t i i _ town, tnat tne people woma scarcely V recognize it. Friday was St. Patrick's Day "in the morning" and in commemoration of the occasion, the Charleston News and Conner of that day came to this office printed all over in green. Mr. Harry Roberts, lately clerking .for H. M. Wiogard, has given up his position here and accepted one with -the Angnsta Lumber Co. In other words he has hung the yardstick on the wall and is now feeding boards to the plainer. May luck follow him in &s new home. E. E Hook, who resides on R. F. D. No. 3, from Gilbert, was in town Thursday on business and called in to aee us. He informed us that be bad aonoluded that he bad just as well be oat of the world as to be without the Dispatch, and there are thousands of other people in Lexington county of the same opinion. "We are neither a prophet nor a son of a prophet, but mark this prediction: .Russia will finally triumph over Japan; but in that event the Government of Russia will undergo i* .i _s mt. i:t s radical cuuuge. xue iiueruet> ui. its subjects will be respected, protected and enlarged; freedom of thought and freedom of action will be vouchsafed them. Mr. Wash Hutto, who represents the Thomas & Barton Music House, of Augusta, Ga., was in town last week in the interest of his house. Wash is to the manner bom, a gifted musician and an. all round good fellow and has numerous friends in bis native county who are always glad to see him. An electric railway between Saluda C. H. and Columbia, via Lexington, i is one of the certainties of the future, j Already a company is being organized with money behind it to push this enterprise * through. One of the power stations will likely be located at or near where Twelve Mile Creek J crosses the "Leapbart public road." Watch and see. We said once before and take pleasure in repeating now that fu tare historians will write the name of John Lowndes Maclaurin high apon the scroll of fame as one of South Corolina's grandest statesmen. We have yet to see any reason why we should retract anything we have said commendatory of him as a patriot and a citizen. 5e has been faithful to his obligations in public as well as in his private life. T. C. Sturkie, Esq, and Karl F. Oswald, assistant Cashier of The Hom6 Bank, two enthusiastic disciples of Nimrod, enjoyed a several day's hunt in the Fork last week. Of course it goes without saying that they killed all game in sight, from a Tom Tit to a Charleston eagle, as well as that out of sight. There is no more game where they have been; no, not even a duck of a girl. The people of the Fork have lost ^tbeir law suit. The State Supreme | court has recently decided that the .'bonds issued by the three Fork ' townships to aid in the construction of , the Columbia, Newberry and LaurenB railroad is a valid indebted-Bess against those townships and they must be paid. We {anticipated this decision from the beginning of the suit and would have been surprised had it been otherwise. Later on we have a plan to suggest the adoption of which will so evenly di ??i?a??mmam?? Tboosands Have Kidney Trouble and Never Suspect it How To Find Out.

There is comfo. in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes. You may have a sample bottle and a book that tells all , about it, both sent free Si by mail. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bingham ton, N. Y. When Eorae of Swansp-Root. writing mention this paper and don't make any mistake, but remember- the name, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the address, BLngbamton, N. Y. vide the burden of taxation that the '** ??? individual taxpayer wui scarcely iet-i the amount he pays toward the liqui dation of tbia debt. Notwithstanding the efforts o ante bellum politicians and moss back newspapers to crush the piiociple out, yetf it is a fact that cannot be successfully denied that John L. McL&urin'a (it should be spelt Mac laqrin, because he is of Scotch, not Irish decent) idea that as manufactured cotton goods are protected by the government against the paop< r labor of the Eastern Hemisphere, so the raw cotton, produced by the farmer by the sweat of his brow brtween the plough handles should b** poctected against the barbarian negroes of African by a protective tariff. If the products of capital are protected by a tariff, why should not the raw material of the producer be protected by a tariff also. If a protective tariff is sauce for the goose it is sauce for the gander. If n ?.MV | ufacturerof cotton it naturally follows that a protective tariff must benefit the producer of cotton. Look at tbe conditions as they exist today. The manufacturer of cotton goods is growing richer and richer while the producer of cotton is growing poorer and poorer each day. There certainly must be a cause for this; and we%ubmit that as a plain business propoei| tion that the solution of the problem ; is easy of when we consider that tbe manufacturer is protected by tariff | against tbe unfair competition of tbe pauper labor of Eurpoe, while the ; producer of cotton is left unprotected to compete with tbe naked savages of Africa. But the great and only trou-i ble with the farmer comes in just here. We have two many two for a nickle leaders,who have plaoed themselves at the head of tbe Southern Democracy for the "loaves and fishes" that is in it whether or not the farmer?he who toils for his daily bread from sun rise ts sun set-sinks or swim. To leave the beaten track of our forefathers whose necessities in those trying days incident to the settlement of America demanded the necessaries.of life be imported from tbe fatherland until the war paint of tha aboriginals was superceded by the "pipe of peace," is in tbeir opinion an unpardonable crime against the mouldering bones of Jefferson. What we of the South need most today 19 to clear away the mass of driftwood that has accumulated around our institutions and the burden of which retards us in the march cf progress and of civilization. Let us become freemen in deed and in truth by exercising the right of American citizenship in using the pricelees boon of the elective franchise as ! in our own judgment eeemetb best to ! our own individual interest as well as that of our neighbor and our country. ! Let us exercise the God given right of freedom of thought and freedom of action regardless of the cry of Republicanism of politicians who have their arms up to the elbow in the public treasury. We of the South are of the household of Democracy and in contending for the doctrine of a protective tariff we do no violence to the teachings of the fathers of Democracy.
