THE AHEN RECORDER. Published Every Tuesday. AIKEN. S. C.. JAN. 29. 1889. Onr Safeguard. The Springfield. Mass., Republican is authority for the statement that during the past four years 1500,000,000 of Northern capital has been invested In the South, and it declares that the “industrial outlook is no picture drawn by immigration committees, but is a fact presented in the trade statistics of the country.” We need no other facts to give us confidence that the people of the North who have put ibeir money here will not permit politicians to take any course of action that will create discord in the Southern States, and put tneir investments at peril. The Problem. This negro problem discussion has become very tiresome, and it is about time that the newspapers took up some other subject. From the amount of importance given the negro, an outsider would suppose that in him was combined all that was of any consequence in the South. It strikes us that the white people are entitled to a little consideration. For the past twenty-four years we have had to solve a white mans’ problem; and this is what is of much greater inter est to us, and it would be better for all concerned if the subject should be viewed from this standpoint. Damp Weather in Florida. This winter will long be remember ed asour wet winter, nothing like it in the memory of the oldest inhabi tant having ever occurred before. There has fallen since November 1, forty-five inches of water, or within ten inches of the average fall for a whole year. The damage south of us is very great, both as to eiops and cattle. The water of Lake Monroe is so high that it floated the boat wharf of the Hanford House away Tuesday night. The lake is getting beyond the usual high water mark of the rainy season.—Orlando Record. The rainfall in Aiken during the same period, from 1st of November to 22d of January, has been 10.45 inches. The calm statement of this fact is worth a large amount of boasting. The News and Courier. Mr. M. F. Tighe, of the staff’ of the News and Courier, on Wednesday last paid a visit U Aiken, where he Is always most welcome. The result of his visit was given in an excellent ar ticle on the progress, people, and the other attractions of Aiken, published in the News and Courier of the 25th. This able newspaper is showing its usual commendable energy in exhib iting to the outside world the progress of the interior towns of the Htate. Enterprising work of this character gives people confidence in a newspa per, and ultimately produces good re sults to all concerned. WEEK. Strawberries from Southern Flo rida are being sold in New York at $5 per quart. There is a movement now to di vide the County of Berkley into two counties. Rev. J. J, Neville has bought the Free Press at Seneca and will publish it hereafter The News and Courier estimates the cotton crop now being marketed at 7,500,000 bales. Barnwell’s Artesian well has been carried to the depth of 500 feet and the boring is still going on. Mr. Clay, we understand, thinks that it will be necessary to go at least 600 feet. The white men, Richardson, Mc- Fail and Crumpler, tried at the Or- angebarg Court last week for the murder of a negro man, were acquit ted. The jury was out only five minutes. The Edgefield Chronicle says: Judge A. P. Aldrich will preside at our March term, and have the plea sure and privelege of charging the iury in the oft-repeated trial of Jones, the triple murderer. The Barnwell Sentinel says: As was generally expected the Nortons of Orangeburg who shot and carved Hamlin to death have been acquitted. It took a jury of 12 men only 15 min utes to perform this wonderft 1 feat. \V. J. Whipper, a negro, and in re construction times, one of the Asso ciated Justices of South Carolina, and lately Probate Judge of Beaufort County, has at last been landed in the Beaufort jail. The mills of the gods grind slowly. The Savannah river reached a height of 24 feet 8 inches on Sunday last, and was at a standstill at 6 p. m. The bank of the river at Augusta was lined all day with spectators, watch ing the steady rise of the threatening stream. R. R. Hawes was indicted on the 23d inst at Birmingham for the mur der of his wife and two children. There were three indictments. Hawes was brought into court and listened to the indictments. He plead riot guilty, and the case was set for trial on Monday January 28th. The Farmers Alliance, recently held at Columbia, appointed a com mittee to investigate the fertilizer business and prices to farmers. This committee recommended that the far mers reduce their purchases, claiming that they had used about twice as much fertilizers on the last crop as was necessary. The committee will officially recommend to all farmers of the State that they make sparing use of fertilizers this year. The Evening Record, of Columbia, has been purchased by a company, and will after February 1st be issued by the Record Publishing Company. Mr. Gardner is to be managing editor, and it is proposed to greatly improve the paper. It will be issued as an evening paper on five days of the week, and on Monday morning will be issued in eight page form as both a weekly and a daily. Milkman John Brady of No. 206 West Thirteenth street New York, drove up in front of a watering trough at No. 361 West street to water his horse early Monday morning. An innocent look ing wire dangled from one of the se ries of wires which run along West street. The hanging wire touched the ground directly in front of the water ing trough. As Mr. Brady’s horse stooped to drink from the trough, it touched the wire and fell over dead. A handsome bank building is now in course of construction at the pros perous and rapidly growing town of Johnston, B. C., on the line of the Charlotte Columbia and Augusta Road. The building will be 25 by 50 feet, and tw^stories high. The lower storv will be used exclusively for banking purposes, and the upper floor for dental parlors. It will be one of the handsomest buildings in the two States, population considered. The enterprise is distinctively Johnstoni an, and reflects credit on the progress ive citizen of that town.

Be Sure If yon bar? made op your mind to boy Hood’s Sarsaparilla do not he induced to take any other. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a peculiar medicine, possessing, by virtue of its peculiar combination, proportion, and preparation, curative power superior to any other article. A Boston lady who knew what she wanted, and wbosA example is worthy imitation, tells her experience below: To Cet “ In one store where I went to buy Hood’s Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to induce me boy their own Instead of Hood’s; he told me their’s would last longer; that I might take it on ten days’ trial; that if I did not like it 1 need not pay anything, etc. But he could not prevail on me to change. I told him I knew what Hood’s Sarsaparilla was. I had taken it, was satisfied with it, and did not wsnt any other. HoocTs When 1 began taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla I was feeling real miserable, suffering a great deal with dyspepsia, and so weak that at times I could hardly stand. I looked, and had for some time, like a person in con sumption. Hood’s Sarsaparilla did me so much good that I wonder at myself sometimes, and my friends frequently speak of it.” Mbs. Ella A.
