THURSDAY. June 18. 1903.
The up-country had a flood and then
the whole State gave them a charity cyclone.

Some newspapers snould bear in mind
the fact that John L. McLauriu is now a
private citizen and is entitled to treatment
as such. This continued parade of
him and his business affairs before the
public is out of place.
P*

It is not often that a relief committee
has to call a halt on the forwarding of
money, as was the case in Spartanburg.
This shows the liberality and substantial
sympathy South Carolinians show to
people in trouble.

Dispensary affairs in Charleston are in
a fearful muddle, surely. However, we
hope the legislative delegation will stand
by their recommendation of L. Arthur
O'Neill. They should not change at the
* bidding of the State board of control.
***
In Bamberg it seems that what is everybody's
business is nobody's business, and
as a consequence there is little concert oi
action among our people. Unity of purpose
and action is what accomplishes
something, and1 we need more of this spirit

bonds. Under their plan we feel sure th<
highest possible price will be obtained
and we are also of the opinion that th<
" bonds will sell enough above par to brinj
the interest down to something like fou
per cent. In fact, we have already hean
of prospective purchasers who will paj
about this price for them.
***
What is going to be done about the goo<
roads matter ? Other surrounding town
are going ahead in this most importan
work, and Bamberg cannot afford to b
left behind. We must keep up with thi
procession or we will die of dry rot. I
the work is to be done on the highways ij
time for the marketing of the present crop
it should be started immeniately. We ari
informed that the convicts cannot be ob
tained is why the matter has been delayed
but it seems to us that free labor could b<
procured for the present at least. Wt
v will have the school building, now let us
build good highways so that people car
come here easily from a long distance
Miles do not stand in the way if the roach
are good and hard, and we feel satisfied
that the trade of the town can be increased
twenty-five per cent, or more if we will
get good roads leading to town. This ?
not only a matter of convenience and
- pleasure, it means dollars and cents as well
and our people are standing in their own
light not to take hold of the good road;
question in earnest. It will not do to sit
down and expect a few men to do all the
Pwork. The whole community will receive
the benefits, and every citizen should be
patriotic enough to give his efforts and
encouragement. Let there be no delay
but let every one of us put a shoulder tc
the wheel.
FOUR YEARS OF WORK.
The first of July fonr years ago the
present editor assumed charge of this
newspaper, and in doing so our onlj
promise was to print a newspaper, one
that would give the news without favoi
or varnish and such as the people were
willing to pay for. Possibly we have not
done so well as we might, certainly nol
as well as we wished, for the paper haf
not been as strong a sheet as we would
have liked to have printed. We have the
satisfaction of knowing, however, that
foil value has been given lor every aonai
received, and the improvements invested
in the plant have been such as to give us
r: x the best printing outfit in this part of tht
State. We can print a better .sheet if w
get the support, but the people of Bam
berg can only get so good a paper as thej
are willing to pay for. Newspapers art
run to make money, and that proprietoi
who pays no attention to the financial
end of his business will soon furnish a
job for the Sheriff.
But it is not our purpose to complain,
Possibly the paper has had all the patron,
age it deserved, but we want to bring out
the fact that with an increase in our advertising
and subscription list we can
furnish still better service. In fact it is
our intention during the next six months
to materially improve the paper. It will
be enlarged and we expect to be in posi
tiou to give more news than ever, before,
Editorially it will continue to advocate
what it deems best for the upbuilding ol
Bamberg, town and county, and while
some may disagree with us, no man can
say that there is ever any selfish motive
back of our opinions. Possibly we have
made mistakes; all men do, and editors
are no exception to the rule. But it is a
matter of great satisfaction to know that
our people have endorsed our opin ons
along many lines, and the work done has
been of benefit to the town and county.
In the future we shall try to give better
service than ever before, and in our efforts
for the good of the community we ask the
* support and co-operation of all our citizens.
Every dollar spent with your home
paper strengthens the hands of the editor
and enables him to furnish a better sheet,
and it also brings its indirect benefits.
Wnile our merchants as a rule have not
yet learned in full measure the benefits of
advertising yet we are gratified that the
advertising patronage of the paper has
largely increased under its present management,
and we hope for greater things
in the future.
Ladies and Children Invited.
All ladies and children who cannot stand
the strain of laxative syrups,cathartics,etc
are invited to try the famous little early
risers. They are different from other pills.
They do not purge the system. A double
dose will not gripe, weaken or sicken;
many people call them the easy pill. W.
H. Howell, Houston, Tex., says nothing
better can be used for sick headache, constipation,
etc. Bob Moore, Lafayette, Ind.,
says others gripe and sicken, while DeWitt's
little early risers do their work
well and easy. Sold by Dr. H. F. Hoover.
What Have You Done?
Not many years ago an excited mob
laid violent hands on a innocent man 1
with a determination to kill him. The c
city's authorities interfered and rescued 1
him, and as they led him away to the 1
court room for examination the mob fol- \
lowed, clamoring for his life. The 1
official who had him iu charge said, UN\ ho i
is he and what has he done." But the j
crowd gave no answer. As they ascended i
the stone steps to the court chamber, 1
Paul asked the privilege of speaking to 1
the excited crowd, and when he had t
Stained their attention they soon dis- i
covered who he was, and while he was
very modest as to his words, evidence was 1
not lacking that he had done something. <
The old apostle lived in an age when it j
cost something iu the way of effort and I
sacrifice to defend principles, and he was i
engaged in a work that invited danger
and persecution,but he possessed the cour- ]
aste and determination to do the work 1
planned, and as a result his name has i
come down through the centuries and his i
memory is cherished to-day because he
accomplished something for humauity at i
a time when the world needed conscientious
workmen. When he said to the ;
officer, "I am a man," he emphasized in a
short terse sentence the dignity of man- J
hood and wheu he added that he was a |
Jew of no mean city he expressed loyalty
to his race and to his home. The character
of the old veteran who gave his life
in defense of truth has beeu studied and,
eulogized ever since his uame and the
record of his life became history. That
he lived to a purpose and done something
is acknowledged by all who have giveu
anv attention to his life and work.
It was worth something iu the oldeu
times to be abJe to say, "1 am a man. u
is worth more today beeause of the
greater opportunities that come to human
experience. The world has never needed
men more than it needs them at the present
time. There is no lack of imitation
but there is a shortage of the genuine, aud
the shortage is apparent in every department
of endeavor. There are many homes
where the head of the family is represented
by a frame to hang clothes on. He
may not be a drunkard or a profligate.
That isn't always necessary to make him
a nonenity. He may possess morality and
make a noisy profession of piety and sti'l
be nothing but a clothes horse. His wife
is better acquainted with him than the
church and in spite of the wealth of love
^ she bestows upon him she is conscious of
the fact that he is but the shadow of a
man. He may be too lazy to work, too
tired to entertain an opinon of his owu,
r too brutal to be tolerated, or too pure to
I assume responsibility; in either case he is
not a man and has no right to claim the
? title.
, Every home should have at the head of it!
i a foll-fledged mau, possessed of character
y enough to command not only the love but
" respect of his wife aud confidence of his
r children. The honey-moon will not dis1
appear as quickly from the horizon when
T the kindly word and gentle tone
which won the heart in the days of courtship
becomes mello'w with the years
instead of harsh and discordant and when
3 the little courtesies blend with every day
s experience in old time gallantry.
. There is a scarcity of men in all com- j
munities. Men who take an interest in
e public welfare and who are willing to de- j
e vote thought and intelligent action to
f working out results for the public good.
There are three classes of men who make
1 up the body politic. One the lawless
'? irresponsible class; another the indiffer?
ent or holy class; citizens who acknowledge
and assume personal responsibility.
The two extremes frequently hold the
' balance of power, as was the case in the
i recent city elections. If the time ever
i comes when a majority of the voters
, adopt as a motto, 'T am a man," city
governments will be transformed and a
1 practical reform era established.
The business and industrial world needs
j more men in every department. There
. is a surplus of machines, but a shortage
of men who think and act for themselves.
' The young man who starts out as a clerk
I or office boy satisfied to peform in a
5 given number of hours simply the work
. placed before him will always bedependdent
upon some other brain to direct him,
' and before he reaches middle life he will
i become an automaton. He may be faith}
ful without being progressive, and the
opportunities of life that were never
more abundant than to-day will pass
* him without being discovered. A faith?
ful machine accomplishes good work, but
, aggressive manhood provides the work.
| In a Chicago factory a visitor was inter'
ested in watching thelemployes as they
, strung along in from 7.30 to 9.30 in the
> morning. He said to the proprietor,
"How do these men work?" "Oh," he replied,
"they work by the piece, and the
union only permits them to turn out a
certain amount of goods in a day, and if
i they are skillful six or eight hours is all
j the time they need, and then," he added,
r "some of them are satisfied to work three
or four hours a day, just enough to keep
* them in whiskey." The conditions in
r the labor world contribute nothing to in>
dependent, self respecting manhood and
' the men who submit to this kind of dictation
with but little to show in the way
t of accomplishment. Manhood means
* more than profession. It means more than
I fame or ability, and vastly more than
simple honesty. At its best state it
' means the development of the best that
i humanity possesses. The full stature of
a man with faculties consecrated to serI
vice represents the highest type that the
raceproduces.
"What hast thou done?" is a pertinent
> question, but it should be asked in all
? seriousness and soberly considered by
every individual life. This is an age of
accomplishment,s and the battle field is
open to all contestants. Victories are
> won in the open arena and there are no
. favored classes. The largest measure of
, success is not contained in a bank account,
neither is it measured by fame or popu'
larity. It lies within the grasp of the
most lowly, and is not controlled by environment.
The w(ork of life is close at
hand, and its mission faithfully performed
day by day leads to destiny. The ques
tion, "What hast thou done?" comes to
people who are on the down hill side of
life with more or less regret, for the re'
trospect is not always satisfying. The
; more important question for young people
with history yet unwritten is, "What do
I you propose to do? " It is easy to drift
with the tide dowu through the years and
do nothing worthy of the name, but it is
possible to brace up against it and with
! a fixed purpose and strong determination
f work out a destiny and win many of the
, prizes. H.

A Duluth attorney recently went East
to visit his old home, and the first Sunday
he was there he attended church.
After service he visited the Sundayschool
and saw many familiar faces
among the pupils, although they had all
growu considerably during the years he
had been away.
At the request of the superintendent
the visitor addressed the school, and in
opening he asked if there were any
present who remembered him?w ho had
ever seen him before.
The hand of a little fellow in the front
row immediately went up. "I do?I do!"
he said.
A satisfied smile crept over the face of
the visitor. He was glad that the children
remembered him.
"Now, where was it you saw me before?"
he asked the boy who had raised his hand.
"You was the clow n in the circus last
summer!" replied the youth, enthusiastically.
"I'd never forget your face."?

Lodged in Penitentiary.
Raleigh, N.C'.,J uuc 15.--A special from
Elizabeth City says: Jim Wilcox, twice ]
:onvicted of the murder of Nellie Cropsey 1
eft here to day in charge of Sheriff F. T. 1
IVinslow, of Perquimans, to begin his 3(1- !
,'ear seuteuee in the penitentiary at
Staleigh. Previous to the arrival of the i
)fficers at the jail he offered to sell the '
ailer a pistol, and to his amazement took
i 33-calibre revolver from his pocket and
ired three shots, then gave it to the jailer.
Be claims that he carried this pistol
luring both trials. It was fastened to his
jarter. '
When the officers appeared he had to (
De carried from the jail by force. He ,
;ursed and swore at them, refused to wear
i neat suit of clothes provided by his
father and insisted on wearing old trousers
tnd worn shoes. He said to the sheriff:
"I shall not stay at the penitentiary.
[ shall be back here soon. A few embers
here, some houses there and a match will
make a blaze. People will know when I
iet back."

of Cincinnati, at tbe Hotel Barton.
"I am in tbe business and have of late been
scouriug Kentucky and Ohio with a view
of purchasing a good size buuch, but had
very poor success. More people want to
buy than sell and prices are at a point
where it is impossible for dealers to make
any profit. The country was drained of
horse flesh during our war with Spain,and
further depletion was caused by the Boer
war. It will take several years to make
up the deficiency and high prices will continue.
The automobile craze has had no
perceptible effect on the demand for high

Still Hungry.
The district round a village in Staffordshire
is inhabited by a sturdy race of colliers
and iron-workers. Some years ago a
wager was made concerning one of these
worthies, whose eating feats were the
admiration of his acquaintances, that he
would at a sitting eat a roast goose, together
with a reasonable quantity of
vegetables, aud at the same time drink a
gallon of beer.
The event was decided one Saturday
evening at a well-known hostelry, the
bird, vegetables and ale being duly con!
sumed. When being escorted homeward
in triumph by one of his backers tbe hero
I of the evening plaintively remarked to
his friend:
"Bill, doan' thee tell my own womau,
as I et that ere guse, or else her woan' gie
me no supper."
Worst of all Experiences.
Can anything be worse than to feel that
every minute will be your last ? Such was
the experience of Mrs. S. H.Newsom, Decatur,Ala.
"For three years," she writes, "I
endured insufferable pain from indigestion,
stomach and bowel trouble. Death
seemed inevitable when doctors and all
remedies failed. At length I was induced
to try Electric Bitters and the result was
miraculous. I improved at once and now
I'm completely recovered." For liver,
kidney, stomach and bowel troubles Electric
Bitters is the only medicine. Only 50c.

Fresh testimony in great quantity is

new discovery for consumption, coughs

had bronchitis three years, and doctored
all the time without being helped. Then I
began taking Dr. King's new discovery,
and a few bottles wholly cu red me. "Equal

His Last Hope Realized.
[From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.]
In the first opening of Oklahoma to settlers
in 1889, the editor of this paper was
among the seekers after fortune who made
the big race one fine day in April. Daring
his traveling and afterwards his camping
upon his claim, he encountered mnch bad
weather, which, together with the heat,
gave him severe diarrhoea which seemed
almost impossible to check, and in June
the case became so bad he expected to die.
One day one of his neighbors brought him
one bottle of Chamberlain's colic, cholera
and diarrhoea remedy as a last hope. A
big dose was given him while he was rolling
on the ground in agony, and in a few
minutes the dose was repeated. The good
effect of the medicine was soon noticed
and within an hour the patient was taking
his first sound sleep for a fortnight. That
little bottle worked a complete cure, and
he cannot help but feel grateful. The
season for bowel disorders being at hand
suggests this. Sold by Bamberg Pharmacy.
A man writes to the Eagle to inquire:
"How should the Christians treat the
Jews?" This is the way one Christian
treated one Jew. It is au old story, but
worth the retelling. The late William M.
Evarts secured for Edward Lauterbach
$2,700 in a law case in which Mr. Evarts'
bill was only $1,110. Mr. Lauterbach's
thankful acknowledgment was: "Almost
thou persuadedest me to be a Christian."

Negroes to Celebrate.
The colored citizens of Bamberg county
will meet at Thankful Baptist church
July 4th, 1903, and celebrate Independence
Day. We find it to be very expedient
that we educate our children in the
school room and the parents from the
lecture platform. We ask that every man,
woman and child come to Bamberg ou
that day and receive such instruction as
will make them better men and women.
We ask for the co-operation of all the
preachers, teachers and others who are
the leaders of our people. It is time for
all of us to bestir ourselves and strive to
make better the condition of our people.
We are in part responsible for the present
; we are wholly responsible for conditions
for many future years. Let us act
well our part, that our posterity may rise
up and bless our good works.
Within a few days a program will appear,
aud we have taken the liberty to
use many names for the day without notification
; we hope all will serve.

If every constipated sufferer
could realize that he is allowing
poisonous filth to remain in his
system, he would soon get relief.
Constipation invites all kind of '
contagion. Headaches, biliousness,

cleans out the bowels in an easy
