a?fci * 'iiriJCMi I The Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, September 10, 1913. G M. Harmak, Editor and Publisher M. G. Sarratt, Associate Editor. Entered at tiie Post Office at Lexington, S. 0., as second class matter. CIRCULATION 2.300. TRUST STEAL. Under a Republican administration the shoe tru9t shipped shoe9 to England, paid the freight and sold them to the English merchant at a price that would enable them to realize a profit in their sale at $2 60 for the same shoe that is sold in this country for $4.00. And other commodities are sold proportionately. Representative Kinkead of New Jersey by way of proving his assertion that American beef is 9old cheaper in Europe than in thi9 country, read a letter to the House a few days ago from Rev. J. J. Lawrence, of Binghampton, N. Y., saying that in England recently he bought both American and Argentine beef at prices almost 50 per cent lower than tne prevailing American prices. The Democrats have the opportunity to prove tneir annpamy or mis enormous steal by the big interest made possible by a high protective tariff, and from the daily dispatches, it seems that many radical changes in the tariff schedule will be affected during the Wilson administration. In reference to a recent editorial in which we described our trip to the upcountry?Greenville, Spartanburg and Saluda?and gave Col. Geo. R. Koester, publisher of the Greenville Piedmont, a "puff" on his fine journalistic qualities and the expedient service he is rendering the people of his city, county and section through that perodical. he has the following to sav bv letter: "I would sue you for libel if I were not afraid that you would prove my antiquity, which I have carefully and successfully concealed in this community. I hope your trip did you a lot of good and that you are feeling first class again. There is no reason why for another century or two you should not continue to be one of the landmarks of the "State of Lexington." We returned last week from an extended trip to Saluda, Spartanburg and Greenville. Vre had a grand time while off and we feel that the trip hasfgreatly recuperated and re juvenaieu us. vve were mrea,u.jr pleased with a previous trip to that section and made up our mind to reiterate it while our better half was on a visit to relatives and friends in Baltimore, Md. Congratulations., We extend congratulations to our young friend and former employee, Mr. M..v It. Sarratt, in winning for himself in so short a time such a nice young lady to be his life companion.

Tho Atlantic Coast Line's especially equipped exhibit car left Wilmington Monday night, the ISih, with one of the very best Southern exhibits that has ever been sent out, with a view to attract settlers to the Atlantic Coast Line territory, viz: Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabama. The first stop will be the Canadian National Exposition, which will be held at Toronto, August 3rd to SepOri-, TM-tcm tKo our will dnnhia ICUIUCl ui.il* Wi.iv vv back and the exhibit will be displayed at various fair9 in New York State, and the New England States, until November 1st. The exhibit consists of sixty-three glass jars of fruits and vegetables; seventeen glass jars of grain, peanuts peas, rice, etc.; fifteen glass jars of pecan nuts; Georgia and Florida can9 syrup; three large cases of grain in straw, forage grasses, tobacco, corn, peanuts and miscellaneous products; grape fruit, pineapples, watermelons, sugar baen; twenty small bales of different kinds of hay grown in the South; cocoanut9; a small bale of cotton; cotton on the stalk; sweet potatoes; corn on the stalk, showing the prolific varieties with four to six ears to the stalk. A great deal of time was consumed in getting the very best products grown in the Soath, and much time - _ _ 1 ? _ A was consumed in preparing ana purting up this exhibit in an attractive manner. A fact which the Southern farmer should be proud of is that this exceptional exhibit was secured from regular farms and not a single item from an experimental farm. In addition to their regular "Nation's Garden Spot" booklet, they prepared a very handsome booklet containing twenty-five beautiful agricultural and horticultural views along, the Atlantic Ooast Line, especially for distribution on this trip. The exhibit is in charge of two experienced men who will take special pains to explain the exhibit and the conditions in the South to all visitors. We think this kind of advertising should certainly attract settlers to this unexcelled country if they can be attracted.

Beloved Woman Passes Away Mrs.Ourtis^R.iRish, of Pelion, died at her home at 10 o'clock last night, following an illness of two weeks. "RVvr aororal vftarc Mrs. Rish had hppn in failing health, but not until two weeks ago did she take to her bed, and her death came as a great shock and surprise to her family and friends. Mrs. Rish was sixty-three years of age and is survived by her husband and six children, one son, W. A. Rish, and five daughters, Mrs. Lawtou Garvin, of Wagener; Mrs. L. C. Dunbar, Mrs. W. M. Yonce, Mrs. Charlie Smith and Mrs. Belton Yonce. The deceased was one of most widely known and highly beloved woman 01 the Pelion community, and her many acts of kindness will be handed down to generations yet unborn. Loving iu her home life, kind and attentive to those in humble spheres of life, s'n^ endeared to her large circle of sincere friendships, and her < ata has cast a pall cf sorrow over me entire community. Hor remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at Florence Baptist church, of which she was a member, this after n .on at 3 o'clock iuYhe presence of ; large assemblage, who attended to p-iV a last silent tribute to their friend and benefactress. The i'uneru. services were conducted by the Rev. Mr. Herlong, the family's pastor. Peace to her ashes; rest to \vr D. R. H Facing a Serious Proposition The man or woman wbo has kidney trouble is facing a serious proposition, where grave complications readily follow neglect. Foley Kidney Pills are an honest curative medicine thac once taken into year system nnan restored kidney and bladder action, and a return of health and strength.
