Thursday, Sept. 11,1913 What we need in Bamberg is impartial enforcement of all laws, no matter who is the trangressor. We are under the impression that the sidewalks were for people to walk on, not display windows for merchants. The fall season is here, and the crowds on the streets have difficulty some times in getting along on account of the side walks of Main stree being largely taken up with goods displayed by the merchants. It is against a town ordinance to put goods on the side walks, yet it seems to be honored more in the breach than the observance. ? I One l"se for the Mosquito. In the North the mosquito reigns supreme. The swarms that rise from streams, lakes and marshes, as each comes to the surface and emerges, dry, from the skin he wore when a wiggler in the water.cannot becheck-1 ed or resisted.

There is compensation for their virulent annoyance, and even for their transmission of the germs j of malaria, compensations mere im-j portant than the eeding of trout and bass *ry. They protect our feathered ; game during the nesting season and' insure immunity to the docks o: mi-; grants that rear their broods in the northern woods. The egg collector.! the sk'n collector and all the inquisi-j tive. curious and destructive who j would otherwise invade the woods' and marshes during the nesting sea- j son. are warned off bv that ominous I I and persistent hum.

While the mosquito reigns supreme the bird life that ranges the continent will nest unmolested in its varied northern retreats.?Toronto Globe. : Federal Road Money. The information conveyed through the Americans Washington reports concerning the apportionment of $10, 000 to this State from the federal appropriation of $500,000 to assist in building post roads in the various States is important when the full significance is considered. The appropriation of $500,000, to be divided among forty-eight States, is a very ? m oil Knotinninor in tVlo TVOV* rtf Vlll 11 H - OJL11 d 1 1 U A 11 II I XJL W, I IJ. ClAV '?

Hardware Store and Old Columbia Hotel Damaged. Columbia. Sept.. 9.? Fire at an early hour this morning, which destroyed a section of the old Columbia Hotel, occupied by the hardware firm of Lorick & Lowrance, caused an esti* mated loss of $60,000. The store of! the firm adjoining was destroyed by fire several months ago. The firm moved into the lobby of the hotel until a new building could be erected. To-day a second section of the hotel was destroyed. The cause of the fire is unknown. BOAT AND CREW LOST Barge Berkes Believed Sunk Dur- [ ] ing I vast Wednesday's Storm. Xewbern. N. C., Sept. 7.?The tug Helen, which arrived here fromPhila- 1 delphia last evening, after being de- i layed in Pamlico Sound in Wednes- < day's storm, brought the story of the t probable loss of the barge Berkes, from Xewbern to Philadelphia, with i Cap. Derrickson and a crew of three, 1 off Ocracoke Island. I The Berkes and two other barges, ( loaded with lumber for Philadelphia, i left here Monday in tow of the tug c Kirkton. Off Ocracoke the hawser i parted and the Kirkton was unable ] to render aid. When last seen the i Berkes had listed and waves were rolling over her. Nothing has been heard i from her since. The captain of the t Helen passed the tug Kirkton after i the storm and brought the report; i that a tug has been sent here to i search for the Berkes. j Old Bill Miner Passes Away. t Milledgeville, Ga., Sept. 3.?Death . has freed "Bill" Miner, notorious robber, jail-breaker and "gentleman of of fortune," from his last prison term. His picturesque career, which included clashes with the laws of more than a score of states and several Canadian provinces, ended late last night at the Georgia state prison farm near here. He had been ill for several months from gastritis. He was 75 years old. He is said to have left his home in Kentucky before he was 15 years of age and gone west. He admitted numerous stage coach robberies and train hold-ups and was several times incarcerated for burglarizing banks. \ . ~ 1 He operated into Canada and then invaded the eastern states. He es- . caped many times from jails and state prisons. Three years ago he . was brought to the state farm here for robbing a train near Lula, Ga., ^ and began a term of 20 years. He ^ has since escaped and been recaptur- ^ ed twice. a Adams Resigns as I*. S. Marshal. Greenville, September 4.?In ac- v cordance with a request from Attor- a ney General McReynolds. Mr. J. Duncan Adams, for twelve years United 1 States marshal for South Carolina, 0 has forwarded his resignation to the * department of justice. Mr. Adams has been in Greenville with his fami- j 0 Iv for the nast several months and j 1 z ; j announced his resignation here this j 11 morning. j 1 The resignation is to take effect; whenever the President shall desig- j 1 na:e, and it is thought probable that | 1 IPs will l?e about the 1st oT October, j ; The letter from Mr. McReynolds j 1 merely stated that "conditions have j i] arisen which make me think it des:r-j ; able to make some changes in the j c Government oih. es in Smith Carolina, j " and ! will be giad if you will forward ; ' your resignation, to take effect at * such time as the President shall des- : ignate." ! 0 ?.iars ha I Adams's term would net; * have expired until .March 1. 191-". .Air. j *' Adams said to-day that he had form-: 1 ei no plans for the ruture. but that ; 1 he might probably make his home in j t Greenville. j Who will succeed Mr. Adams is not j 1 known here, but it is believed that j t Mr. J. L. Sims, of Orangeburg, has i 11 been picked. c r b Misses Fortune, Takes His Life. r d Pueblo. Col., Sept. 3.?Regret over c the sale of his ranch for a trifling t sum, and from which later was made j] a $3,000,000 oil strike is believed to 0 have been the cause of the suicide here of William Chislon, thirty years e old, Choctaw Indian and former foot- g ball coach at the Haskell Institute. h Chislon yesterday received a let- a ter from his brother-in-law stating t that a $3,000,000 oil strike had been a made on the ranch which Chislon n recently sold. t "I spent almost every cept I had c in employing drillers and buying machinery," he said, "but I never struck a drop of oil. Finally I became discouraged and sold my ranch for $700." c After telling his landlord this t Chislon went to his room and shot a himself through the head with a v rifle. He died an hour later. r t Baptist Minister Asphyxiated. r ' 2 Caihnnn cia Sent. 6.?The Rev. A. W. Hall, a Baptist preacher, lost ( his life here today in attempting to 1 rescue R. L. Worley from a well, af- t ter Worley had been overcome by s carbonic gas. Worley discovered gas in the well he had prepared to clean i out. He attempted to climb to the 1 surface and, overcome by the fumes, i fell some 50 feet, fracturing his skull. \ Mr. Hall volunteered to rescue the i injured man and was lowered to rhe L ^ 1 ? ? ? r uuuoiii, nt? icisieiitu a i iu ?> Wiley's body, but himself was overcome.

Railroad, operating 240 miles of line ; Tom Dante, Ya., to Spartanburg, S. j 2., is a millionaires' costly toy, alhough not an expensive one. It has the distinction of being a toy railroad model on which the \ iheories of a group of well-known j s'ew York millionaires can be worked I )ut and demonstrated very much as jroblems are studied on the ordinary iemonstration farm. It is equally im- ! Dortant that most of these theories j have been found correct and are vorking out satisfactorily in practice, j For instance having the money and i ilentv of it. they proceeded on the i heory that if 110 expense was spared j n introducing every modern improve-! nent as to roadbed, grades, equip- J nent, etc., the ultimate return would j ustify the original cost. They built the road over and ! ;hrough part of the Appalachian! ange in order to reach the Cumber-1 and coal field, but tunnels, fills and ;uts have produced a road with a naximum gradient of 1 per cent, and nodern equipment and power pernits of 100 50-ton car train movenent at the smallest cost for train Movement in the United States. The Management knows exactly to the ent how much it cost to build the ailroad and when the Government ihysical valuation experts arrive they vill find figures at their hands which hey cannot dispute. They know exactly how much revnue each coal train will produce and ! o the cent almost how much it will ost to move it before it is started on ts way. It is a simple problem in rithmetic. Each train contains! ,000 tons of coal and the rate from | he mines to Spartanburg is fixed. It | s approximately $1 a ton. That! ueans $5,000 revenue for each train. ! rwo trains a day means $10,000 i aily to over $3,000,000 gross a year, j liree trains a day means a half i gain as much and four will double | he income. It all depends upon the j roductive capacity of the mines j fhich is being increased as rapidly J s practicable. Merchandise and j assenger traffic is incidental and ! epresents so much additional in-j ome. Everything about the road is ' ongued and grooved and fits perfect- j y. There are no loose ends. In the lis-' al year ended June 30, last, it cost j he company 17.5 per cent of gross; o move its traffic. Its total opera-j ing ratio was 42.5 per cent of gross. Any one of the joint owners of iris property is expected to advance heories pertaining to this road or ts affairs provided he is willing to ack theiii with his cash. I., for a st a nee. he thinks a certain indusr\ wen Id thrive in a particular lout ion he is expected tc-start one to ee how it would turn out. In this ay a cement plant v.as started and roved so successful that capacity has ecentlp been doubled. It is turning at 20 carloads of cement a day and o per cent profit into its sponsor's ocket. A brick plant was another J heory started and since demonstra- j c-d co be a money-making proposi-} ion. Somebody owns a hotel and is ! roving that the top of the mountain j i ange which the Clinchfield penerates is a popular health resort. A ew of them were convinced that the ountry contiguous to the road could e made to produce a high grade narketable apple and proved it by oing so on thousands of acres purhased for the purpose. Tens of housands of apple trees are now beng planted along the railroad's right f way. Another director recently advancd the theory that this country was a ood one for raising beef cattle and ias just closed the purchase of 1,200 cres of land on which he proposes o prove it. Somebody else believes vailable natural deposits would pernit of successful operation of a ferilizer plant. It is now in course of onstruction.?Wall Street Journal. Think Hoys Were Murdered. Lincoln. Xeb., Sept. S.?The dis overy of bullet wounds last night in he body of John Rys, 16 years old, ind George Dimer, nine years old, vho were found dead Saturday night lear Havelock, leads to the theory hat the boys were murdered. Coroler V. A. Matthews prepared to hold m inquest to-day". The bodies were founds in a state >f decomposition. The boys were ocked in each others' arms as though hey had sought to protect themselves from some attacking force. That they had been gored by an inuriated bull was the first theory but idward Hoffman, a farmer, mainains there were no cattle in the field vhere the bodies were found for the ;ast week. The boys had been missing since fhursday, following their departure )n a day's hunting trip. A few feet iway from the bodies were the boys' *uns. A shot gun was loaded, but i 22-calibre rifle contained one emp;y cartridge. RECEIVED FATAL SHOCK. Georgia Lady Killed by Heavily! Charged Light Fixture Athens, Ga., Sept. 6.?Mrs. W. A. Cunningham, wife of Head Coach Cunningham, of the University of Georgia, was electrocuted here last last night when she grasped a highly charged light fixture. Mr. Cunningham also received a severe shock. Mr. Cunningham heard his wife fall in the bathroom. He investigated and in trying to turn on the light was stunned. He quickly revived and summoned medical aid for his wife, who was lying unconscious on the floor. Efforts to revive her were unavailing. How the light fixture became charged with so powerful a current has not been determined. Better Farming and Better Marketing On the whole, I insist that the average Southern farmer can make $300 more a year by better farming methods and $500 more a year by better methods of co-operation and marketing?and what I want us to do is to get both $500 gains. An extra $1,000 a year per farm is what we must have to build up a great rural civilization in the South. And instead of the man who is trying to get the extra $500 by co-operation and marketing throwing stones at the man who is trying to get the extra $500 by better farming, let them work together. That's what the Farmers' Union says, and it is th? policy The Progressive Farmer is always going to fight for. To make our meaning clearer; let us give another illustration. Cotton manufacturing is like farming, in that in both industries there are continual improvements in methods, in machinery, and in marketing. Now suppose a Southern cotton manufacturer were losing money and should join his brother manufacturers to market his goods co-operatively. That would mean more profit, no doubt, and would be a wise move, just as it is a wise move for our farmers. But suppose this same manufacturer kept on using out-ofdate machinery, unscientific methods, an uneconomical system of production, while Northern manufacturers kept on improving their methods, using better implements and machinery, etc., etc. And suppose his manufacturing paper kept on telling this Southern manufacturer of improved scientific methods of production, of labor-saving implements and machinery that other manufacturers were using and kept saying to him. "We must use as good methods as North-! ern and Western manufacturers use; i or we will be put out of business." j But suppose he should then say, "1j am going to?stop reading that paper, j 1 am tired of so much teaching about [ better methods of manufacturing.: All 1 want is a new marketing plan. I can use the same sort of manu-J facturing methods my grandfather used." The best system of market-; ing on earth wouldn't save that 1 manufacturer from bankruptcy, pov-j erty, and ruin. It's the same way with our South-! 1 ern farmers. They may adopt the; best marketing: svstem on earth, but! I they must do better farming or lose out in competion with other sections. We sometimes seem to fall into the foolish notion that Southern farmers are the only ones that are on earth. The truth is, that the locomotive and the steamship make us competitiors with farmers all over the world. A man can get plenty of labor in India to work cotton at ten to fifteen cents a day and our Southern cotton must compete with Indian cotton. In corn, wheat, and all food and feed crops, we must compete with the wideawake farmers in the North and West and in Canada. In growing cattle, we must compete not only with them, but with farmers in South America?and it is said that next year South America will even send corn to the United States. What The Progressive Farmer wants us to do, what the Farmers' Union wants us to do, is to equal any other section or country both in production and marketing. Moreover, we also have to consider another big fact that cannot be too strongly emphasized. This is that we can never, never market cotton or tobacco effectively until we get better farming, so farmers can grow their own corn and feed and so escape the mortgage and credit system. For it is an admitted fact that the system of buying supplies now throws our staple crops pell-mell on every autumn market, and ruins every attempt at regulated, systematical, scientific selling of these crops. fornn'nff tli orofnrp will hpln ucilci i ai iiunrn v? v/, - ..w-r us geC better marketing, and both plans mrtst go along together, as the Farmers* Union founders so wisely foresaw.?Clarence Poe in Progressive Farmer.

HURT WHILE "SWINGING" TRAIN Anderson Boy in Critical Condition from Injuries. Anderson. September 7.?While attempting to "swing" a C. and W. C. passenger train, i,n this city this morning. Joe Ammonds, aged 18, missed his footing and was hurled to the ground, his right leg being broken in two places and one arm badly lacerated. It is presumed that his body struck a switch. Ammonds is at the hospital and his condition is critical. He is employed by a local plumbing contractor. Fined $75 for Assaulting Neighbor. Orangeburg, Sept. 5.?A case that has created a great deal of interest, not only in the city but throughout the entire county, on account of the prominence of both of the parties, was tried in court this morning. It was the case of the state vs. Scarborough. He "was indicted for assault and battery with intent to kill upon the person of C. V. Fairey. It was alleged that Mr. Scarborough assaulted Mr. Fairey with a monkey wrench without any provocation. A severe wound was inflicted. Mr. Scarborough plead guilty and was sentenced to pay a fine of $75 or to serve three months on the chain gang. PINS $1000 IN SKIRT. Morning Brings Discovery That Both Skirt and Money Were Stolen. Washington, Sept. 5.?Search is being made to-day by the police for j a woman who disappeared from the i home of Mrs. Wm. J. Thomas, at j presumably about the time that a | skirt in which Mrs. Thomas had pinned $1,000 in bills of various denominations also was discovered missing. The money represented the pro-} ceeds of a -real estate deal and Mrs. j. Thomas pinned it in her skirt, which she removed on retiring. She awakened to find it and the money gone. LOCAL DRUGGIST MAKES STATEMENT. i _ i Says Dodson's Liver Tone is the Best Remedy for Constipation and Shirking Liver he has Ever Sold. Every person who has tried Dodson's Liver Tone and knows how surely and gently it starts the liver to ; working and relieves biliousness will bear out the Peoples drug store in this statement about Dodson's Liver Tone. "It is a purely vegetable liquid, that entirely takes the place or' cal-. cm el. harmless and pleasant to the taste, that has proven itself the most satisfactory remedy for a slow-working liver that most of dur customers have ever tried. A large bottle sells tor fifty cents and we do not hesitate to give the money back to any person who tries a bottle on the strength of this statement and is not satisfied with the result." in these days of doubtful medicines and dangerous drugs, a statement like the above is a pleasant assurance that Dodson's Liver Tone is a reliable remedy for both children and grown-ups. In buying a bottle for immediate or future use it is well !. to make sure you are getting the gen-j nine Dodson's Liver Tone and not' some spurious imitation that has j copied our claims, but do not stand I back of their guarantee.
