This Hag has been dr. pneJ and we are nil ott' in n bunch for ihe race of 1904. IIavk you broken that New Year resolution you made, or huve you kept it a whole week. When yon began "resolving'' for the yeai 100-1, did you include subscription paying in the list? We hope so. Santo Dominuo has but i??> presidents at this writing. It may have three at any old time?you c\o't tell o Kniit Co iif>? I iiir,\ Ill liv II tllMMIK cnia W I'WUl 11^''. Will I.K the cotton market hovered around the fifteen rent maik the poor farmer mourned ?and why shouldn't he. llut there need tie no worry, when his next crop is ready the price w:ll be back to from eight to ten cents again. A rfcf.Nt dispatch tells us that the .Tews in Russia are under il?e care of ] President Roosevelt. We ernestly hope for the Jew that he will treat them with wore consideration than he has the while people of the South. Tuk German Emporor was too busyto see our Mr. Bryan when he was in Berlin. This was indeed terrible, for :t must have caused the Nebraska statesman great i ain to miss an interview wi?-li the man who places his own name before that of his God. Tiik holiday trade of our merchants was indeed hea\y. We do rot wish to seem egotistical, hut think we can , justly say that 1 lie Advocate was an important factor in securing- this hn*i- ; ness. Of course 1 tie honesty and fair deal'ng ?>f oiir siti/.ens pUjeil a great part. I Tiik Edgefield AdvcttUer last vvi ek passed its sixty-ninth mile post ?.a life's journey. Though the paper lias been published continuously since 1839 it shows no sign of old age. The present editor, Mr. .1. L. Minis, is keeping the Advertiser up to a good standard and \v ? hope the citizens of old , Edgefield appreciate his work and will , do their part towards keeping life in j the Advertiser. 1 e a i t aiis^H coue up to w^^taml^E^ They always do. and y?.t [ the law permits sueli.

And while upon the question of railroad development it would b? well to think of the Southern, the system which is giving us today a service unsurpassed?both passenger and freight. Locally we have a good system, for Imve we not, eveu in little Uatesburg, eight passenger trains a day ur.d six local freights for the accomodation of the public, a better service than is enjoyed by any town between Columbia Hiid Augusta. Our citizen? may have never thought of this and even if tliey have, only looked upon it ns a matter of course. The accomodations ?re good and the schedule conveniently arranged for every town along the line and The Advocate for one ?* gratefi I to the management of the Southern fcr the favors bestowed upou this section.
