Till at ray doorstep kneeling,
I can but sob and moan.
Oh, reach your hand, dear girlie,
And ciasp mine, weak with fear;
Unto my heart's deep pleading,
Oh, lend a list'ning ear.
My feet are sore and weary,
The walk was rough and steep?
* Why don't- that City Council
Repair this blooming street?
My eyes are dim with weeping,
My heart is sad and sore;
That motely gang of robbers,
They'll ne'er help us no morel
I cannot understand it,
Their ways, so small and rank;
But now I believe I have it.
We've no money in the bank!
Sr. S&llmaa ia Greenwood.
Rev. Dr. S. T. Hallman, pastor of
the Lutheran church, left yesterday
for Greenwood. His pulpit will be
filled this morning by Dr. Robt. P.
Pell, president of Converse college.
Dr. Hallman gets around at a lively
gait for a man of his years. He has
an immense lot of energy and goahead
about him, and when he puts
his shoulder to the wheel there is
something going to move. He is a
man of the pen as well as a preacher,
and man of the tongue and spirit.
> Dr. Hallman was sole editor of the
Lutheran Visitor for over ten years,
for a number of years publisher and
editor, by election, of the Mission
News of the woman's mission work of
the Southern Lutheran church; author
y at one time of Sunday School Notes
^ in the Southern Lutheran, and now
on the eighth year's term of service
as secretary of the united synod in
the South. He is still in demand as a
writer. Several secular papers have
recently engaged his fservices for
Christmas articles, and all this work
he does almost, or wholly, as a work
of love. Age does count, and it
counts for skill, efficiency and valued
experience in service for the church
and the world.?Spartanburg Herald.
Dr. Hallman is a native of Lexington
county and the above will be
read with interest and pleasure by his
numerous relatives and friends.
/ Kennedy's Laxative Cough Syrup
stops the cough by allaying inflammation
of the throat and lungs, and it
drives the cold from the system by
gently moving the bowels. Children
like it for it tastes nearly as good as
m maple sugar. Sold bv Kaufmann Drug,

Lepsal the Lion Law.
When the bill * hall be introduced in
the General Assembly at its
approaching session for the repeal of
the Agricultural Lien law the usual
opposition will show itself but with i
less probability of defeating it.
The sentiment of the farmers in favor j
of repeal has steadily strengthened
until the legislator will scarcly venture
again to ingore their wishes. The bill
for repeal has already passed in the
House of more than one Legislature,
but it has regularly been throttled
in the Senate?a body of very
excellent gentlemen, but by no
means so representative of the farmers
or so fuliy informed of their aims as is
the popular body. The State plumes
itself on its conservatism, it balks at
repealing any statute, but the repeated
election of representatives who would
remove this lingering embarrassment
to those cultivators of the land who
are ambitious, industrious and thrifty
must impress it.
As we have remarked heretfsore, the |
class that would suffer most inconven- j
lence irom cne repeal 01 tne law are ?
the non-resident land-owners, but we i
are disposed to believe that they are
not entitled to fir9t consideration when
the interests of the man who not only
owns the land, but lives upon it, are
at stake.
While there are legislators sonscientiously
opposed to the repeal of the law,
the overwhelming opinion is that they
are obstructing a measure which would
be of incalculable effiecacy in relieving
the farmers of their difficulty in
obtaining and controlling labor.?
News and Courier.
Guilty of Counterfeiting.
Passing counterfeit money is no worse
than substituting some unknown worthless
remedy for Foley's Honey and Tar,
the great cough and cold remedy that
cures the most obstinate coughs and
heals the lungs. For sale at Derrick's
Drug Store.
A Ssrmon in Rhyzis.
The sentiment in the following rhyme
i9 true and so beautiful that we feel
like passing it on to our readers. We
find it a Christmas greeting sent us by
the Southern Printers Supply Co. of
Washington:
"If von have a friend worth loving.
Love him: Yes, and let him knowThat
yon love him ere life's evenidg
Tinger his brow wit! 1 sunset glow;
Why should good words ne'er be said
Of a friend?till he is dead?
Scatter thus your seed of kindness,
All enriching as you go;
Leave them; trust the Harvest-giver,
He will make each seed to grow.
So, until life's happy end,
You shall never lack a friend."

County Union Held Interesting
Meeting. js
The Lexington County Farmers' j
Union met in the court house here on j
Saturday with a fairly good attend- j
ance. i
The first matter that came up for j
consideration wa9 the election of offi- J (
cers, which resulted as follows: J.
E. Haitiwanger, president; Jas. ; *
W. Shealy, vice-president; C. W. | 4
Smith, secretary; W. A. Leaphart, !
chaplain; P. W. Shealy, conductor; j j
J. L. Sease, doorkeeper; S. J. Clark,
business agent; P. H. Craps, county
organizer.
The following committees were ap- ; .
pointed: I
Executive committee?B. L. Frick, i
P. I. Rawl, H. W. Palmer. I
On the Good of the Order?M. K.
Frick, Haskell Shull, W. C. Sease.
Query Committee?J. R. Clarke, W. I
A. Leaphart, J. J. Frick.
The above were elected to serve for ;
, ?
the ensuing year.
A great many questions came up
for discussion, but perhaps the question
of greatest importance was that ?
of co-operation. It was urged by all
the members to work toget her for the
betterment of the farmer and the upbuilding
of the Union.
It was agreed that the County Union
hereafter meet with the different
local unions throughout the county
instead of at the court house as heretofore.
The next meeting will be
held at Piney Woods on the second
Saturday in March, 1909.
