X1rs. W. Q. H1ipp returned last
week from a very pleasant week's
visit to relatives in Orangeb-urg couu

Mr. R. L. Crooks is now clerking
for Aull and Hipp, where L will be
glad to see all his friends.
Mr. C. D. SheeLy has m1aved to Po
maria, and o eenpies he dwelling re
cently vacated by Mr. Anderson, for
merly agent for the Southern Rail
way at this place. Mr. Horace Har
ris sueceeded Mr. Anderson as agent
here. and is now perforrming the-d
ties of the .positi,n in an efficient awl
accommodating way.
Mrs. 'Carrier Lane, together witV
MIrs. W. i. --ris and her little
spent a day in Pomaria ti last
week.
Mrs. J. L. Graham is able to be
up aain after a week's illness.
Pniaria can now boast of a watch
maker. Mr. r. A. 'Murphy' has re
cently opened an office here in the
store of Mr. T. E. Hentz, where he
-will repair cloeks, watches, and jewel
ry of all kinds.
A good many of the people of this
,community expect to attend the state
fair this week. They regret that the
excursion train arrivs in Columbia
so late, however. It is difficult to get
lodging in Coliumbia for the night
and if one returns the same day, the
present sehedule does not give him
much time in the city.
Cotton picking is well advanced in
this seetion, and if the pretty weath
er continues for a week or two lon
ger, the pieking will be practically
finishid. S.
The Coluds Will Roll By.
The following editoria.l from last
week's Manufacturers' Record is so
good and so itimely that -we reproduce
it, here. It should be carefully read,
and we believe all who read it will
'endorse it and appreciate it:
"And stil' the sun is shining. And
sti.ll S5,000,000 people are 'being
selot.hed and fed and are doing their
accustomed work. Still the tramp of
a mighty army of a million workers
is annually pouring into our country,
and hundreds of thousands from oth
e'r sections of the United .States are
annually turning their footsteps to
ward -the great Southwest. .and imany'
into t'he Central South. The .world
moves. Human activities know no
let-up. T'he farmers of the countr.y
will this year receive $7,000,000,000
-for their products, or about nine timesJ
Lthe total niationa~l banking 'capital of
Tthe United -States; ahnxost one-half as
muhas the 'total investment in all
'the railroads of the countrry. Never
before in the history of America
:were the agricultural conditions of
the country so sound and solid; never
'before "&ere tue farmers of ,the south
and the west alike so nearly out of
deb't and 'with a total value of farm
produ'cts to their credit so 'staggering
in amount as to be almo~st beyond
comprehension. Contrast the $7,000,
000,000 whieh 'will this year 'be paid
to American farmers with the total J
value of farm products was $2,566,
000,000, or b.ut a 'little more ~than
one-third of the value this year. From
seven years ago, or in 1900, the total
rwas $4,717,000,000, wihile this year
the aggregate of $7,000,000,000 shows
Sa gain of $2,300,000,000 as compared
-with 1900, and is almost as great as
'the total value of far~m produets in
1890.
"How can a country materially
suffer in its business interests with
such a solid foundation for marvel
ous prosperity and business expan
sion? New York is at present the'
storm-center of a bad financial con
dit'ion, due in part to the rottenness
of the methods of some financial
operators in that great world-enter,
in part to destruction of confidence
by ceaseless agitation and legislation
against 'railroads 'and other corpora
tions. It is true that the depreciation
in securities has been enormous. It
is true 'that thousands have lost, their
all by having to ,sacrifice securities.
But these conditions do not, by any
means, change the fundaniental
soundness of American business con
ditions. The man who has been
forced by this financial storm to sac
rifice his securities -for far less than
their intrinsic value has transferred
to the pure.haser a property whicih,
'when the st(orm is over, must inevita
bly advance commensurate with the
marvelous natural resources and de
velotment of the country. Take the
