the occasion and the thanks of the en

Unless the telephone company recede
from their exactions recently made.,
quite a number of 'phones will put up
the "nothing doing'' sign. The price
paid for the kind of service is regarded
sufficient by those who have to pay,
and they say they will not pay any
more than promised for a ser
vice promised them but not received.
When the company started the price
for business 'phones was $1.50 per
month: later the company promised
the Sumter connection, together with
the county service for $2.00 per month.
Theumter connection vanished, but
no reduction in price came,patrons paid
their extra 50 cents just the same, and
now comes the company and informs its
patrons, it will re-establish the Sumter
connection, but it will exact 10 cents
every time the connection is given to
Sumter, Greeleyville, Salem and King
stree, and righthere is where the kick
omes good and strong. and may .result
in the organizationi of a ne w company,
which if organized. will put in a me

ent outfit at any price.

W. SCOTT HARVIN,
Two of our pronuineut business men
recently bought lots in the business
section of Summerton. Both of them
have a strong faith in the future of
Summerton. and it will not surprise us
greatly if the business men of that
eoming town do not soon have the
benefits of water transportation, thus
getting the -.dvantage of competitive
freight rates. When the steamer from
Columbia to Georgetown is put on, we
believe some kind of a road will be
built to Wright's Bluff, if it has to be a
wooden tram, the same as Manning
had to Foreston before the Central
road was built.
A man living in this county, who is
industrious and well thought of, told us
that he came to this town with $75. in
his pocket, got on a spree with some
friends, and he does not know what be
came of his money. The kindly atten
tions of tiese friends contined until he
had no money. and then he found he
was bereft of frieuds and money too.
That is the way of it, one who is the
unfortunate victim of drink, can always
find friends who will stick to him as
long as his money lasts. but Iet that get
away, and in ninety nine cases out of a
hundred these whilom friends will kick
him first, even if they were the ones to
grab his cash. Whiskey-made friends
are a weak man's worst enemies.
If every township in the Southern
cotton belt would respond as does
Plowden's Mill in this county, we
would feel safe in prophesying that
the cotton crop of 1905. would not
reach over 9000,000 bales and the price
would be 20 cents per pound. A per
sonal interview had with 18 farmers
in Plowden's Mill, show that in 1904
they planted 1,050 acres in cotton and
used 250 tons of fertilizers, these farm
ers in 1905 will plant 484 acres in cot
ton. and will use 117 tons of fertilizer.
Here is a reduction of over one-half in
both acreage and fertilizer.
In Brewington township the acreage
is reduced over 25 per cent, so it is in
Concord, and St. James. There are
several townships yet to get together
but from nearly all the reports show a
reduction in both acreage and fertilizer.
Fulton and Calvary townships nothing
heard from yet, and the same we can
say for Friendship. If this was a pri
mary election, with some of its promi
nent citizens in the field as candidates,
we have no doubt but that all three
townships would have r e s o o n d e d
promptly.
The time is drawing to a close; only
a few days left to vote in the ring con
test. Remember that voting ceases
May 1st, which will be next Monday.
Those who are public spirited should
make the remaining days of the contest
lively. The cause is one which should
appeal to every man who feels an in
terest in this town and community.
The proceeds from this ring contest
does not sto to a band of travelling fun
makers to be carried to distant States,
and possibly blown in at the races, but
in this case the proceeds go to an insti
tution that will be a part and parcel of
this town, and which will tend to ad
vance its material interests An in
sttution which will aid the chnrches
and schools to build a better citizen
ship. make better fathers and mothers,
more devoted brothers and sisters. It
will be a place to satisfy the craving
of higher ambitions-an institution, the
influence of which, will be felt in all
walks of life, in the store, the office,
the school, the farm, the. work-shop,
and the home.
People arouse yourselves to a cause
which has for its motive something we
will all be proud' of. It is something
hat eliminates, clanishness, and little
ess of spirit, and build this community
nto a high, broad-minded people. Any
own possessed of a public library, ad
ertises its people to the world, as be
ng appreciative of that which is more
han the present-they all look forward
to the future, and building for those
who are to take their places.

Letter to C. R. Breedin.
Dear Sir: Here's something every
painter and builder ought to know.
Mr. J. J. Hall. Sheffield, Pa., painted
two houses, 5 years ag, lead-and-oil;
took 40 gallons. Last year he painted
Devoe; bought 40 gallons; had 10 left.
He is one of thousands. The knowl
edge is getting about pretty generally,
that Devoe goes further than anything
else.
Have you found it out in your own
experience?
How much further?
Suppose a job amounts to 10,000 square
feet: how much less Devoe could you
buy?
Is it as easy to paint? Does it cost any
more or less to put on by the gallon
than anything else? how much?
If it costs no more to put on Devoe by
the gallon, it costs less by the foot, you
know; for the gallon does more feet.
How much less, do you find it, for
wages?
Lasts, say, twice as long; that is the
owner's gain; but perhaps you reckon
it yours: some do. The time, when that
comes in, is when he gives out the next
job.
Who gets it?
