TOMPKINS EXTOLLS
SALUDA'S PROGRESS
Edgefield Lawyer Pays Visit t.
I Saluda and Writes Glowingly of
f Past, Present and Future.
A. S. Tompkins in Edgefield Chrcr.i
cle.
When our dear boys went across
> ** the Atlantic to fight with La Belle
France, our hearts were downcast
and dejected?but when the winter of
war was made glorious summer by
our prowess in American arms and
our boys returned after a time, we
| * were all delighted to see how much
% they had improved m every way?
j looking fairer, fresher, fatter and
I more ruddy and vigorous.
So likewise when our dear young
child and offspring, Saluda county,
first went oif to keep house for herself,
we were all made sad and troubled,
but it was for the best; and now
after some years of separate exist?
ence, we are filled with loving pride
and delight to see how this charming
young offspring of Edgefield has
grown and prospered, because Edgefield
loves her with a devoted and ma
ternal affection; and as Rip Van Winkle
says, i4May she live long and pios|
per."
I It was our pleasing privilege to go
B over to the town of Saluda last week,
and it was a great joy to look at the
rising youth of this dear young
county. It has grown materially,
morally and in love for law. Her
material growth consists in most of
her citizens being the owners and
workers of many small farms?each
farm well cultivated?and in living
at home and boarding at the same
? \ro S?W a lot of
piacc. vm. uuj >. ..
teams coming from near Chappells
with about 65 bales of cotton under
the control and ownership of George
Coleman, which he sold on the street,
we learned, at nigh on to 40 cents a
pound. Most of the cotton grown in
Saluda is a surplus crop and means
that much ahead. Then another evidence
of their prosperity is the fact
- - * ' i??
that their three oanKS m ^aiuua u<*\c
^ . deposits as shown by late statements,
r, to-vvit:
I . Planters National' Bank, about
$650,000.
The Bank of Saluda, about $365,000.
The Farmers Bank, a new bank,
about $225,000.
Making a grand total of $1,240,000.
Besides thfere are two banks at
Ridge Spring and one at Ward, with
deposits all told about $725,000.
* Making total deposits of at least two
; million dollars.
t
; Deposits at Ridge Spring and Ward
in detail say:
The People's Bank, Ridge Spring,
about $325,000.
( The Farmers and Merchants Bank,
Ridge Spring, over $250,000.
The Bank of Ward, about $150,
000.
Making total of $725,000.
And besides this, many people in
Saluda have deposits at Batesburg
and other points. The people live in
finp houses, well preserved and paint
ed, fixed up with gas or electric
lights, many of them waterworks
and telephone and have good automobiles
to ride in and show all the
evidences of prosperity and wealth.
Ker educational progress is evi.
.fenced by a most spacious brick high
f school -building at Saluda and others
in all parts of the county, well attended
with numerous children, as
Saluda people are not ashamed of
growing large families of healthy
children.
Then her religious progress is amolv
shown by that beautiful new Bap
X?f ? tist
church at the old Red Bank site,
with its stained glass windows, graded
seats and melodious organ and
other appliances; and the Methodist
church is also a creditable structure
and both having large congregations
who are trying to walk in the paths
, of righteousness and truth.
' Then as a testimonial of their devotion
to law?you will find in the
public square at Saluda one of the
L handsomest and best built* court
houses in the state, finished up with
light pressed brick and having well
equipped offices for the public officials,
and with water works and lights
and the very best internal finish in
the way of seats and desks, etc., that
you will find in any city; and what is
so good about it that there is plenty
of room now and some room to grow
?which Saluda is bound to do. She
is growing in every way and crime is
on the decrease. In the blessed words
^ of Proverbs we can say of Saluda:
"Length of days is in her right
hand, and in her left hand riches and
honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness
and all her paths are Peace."
"The Saluda Standard,'' under the
management of our young friend.

and fame.
The names of the good people who
have lived in Saluda in the past are!
numerous amid the public records of
Zigefield court house showing that
they were large land owners, and did
their duty as good citizens?especially
do we see them as jurors; and
when we think of how many of us
may have our property rights?our;
liberty?and even our lives, held in
the hands of the juror, we are impressively
reminded of how important it
is to continue such good and true
men as these, to try the issues of
such great pith and moment?as the
juror is the corner stone of civiliza-;
tion ?and wee to that people whose j
jurors are corrupt. Such jurors as
these good and lawful names consti- i
tute the salt of the Bodv Politic.

Her histovy is pure, her ground is
consecrated and we can feel in the
language of the great bard:
"But when the rising moon begins to
climb
Its topmost arch and gently pauses
there? !
When the stars twinkle thru the;
loops of time
And the low night breeze waves along [
the air.
