So should you desiro your newspapers every where to continue you will have to pay your subscriptions before " Ipril. peoplo complaining J and close money maitoA^, - not a bad time to re peal the lien law ? Tho moro this question is considered tho biergor it appears, and while it may re sult, ultimately, for tho beneiit of tho state, to repeal it, its sudden repeal would create a revolution in tho business affairs of our country, and would make it quite hard for a timo, on many of our people who neod protection tho most. ?There aro two sidos to this ques tion, and two big sides. Many of our best men, owners of large landed estates give lions to the bank every year to get money to operate their farms with Repeal the lien law these men will have to give mortgages and where they al ready have given mortgages the ropeal will work hardships in their case and the poor white man will be in quite a predicament. Miss Anna Draughon of How land, N. C., arrived in town last Saturday afternoon and will visit her sister, Mrs. II Carl Rowe, en ?Spencer street. Miss Anna is kind ly remembered by friends in Bon nettsville, who trust that she may have a pleasant visit to her old home. The railroads are dropping ol? \ LlULiviu^iiauii J.i . KS. Under present conditions, with the effect of thc panic, and the un soiled labor feelings, it is perfect ly natural that our merchants should be very careful and partic ular this year in letting out their goods. What will such people as Mrs. Keilt do when th "lien law" is re pealed? With large twenty-five and thirty one horse farms, nt present each tenant pays his rent, gives a lien to tho merchant for supplies and the business tor the S year proceeds. With the lien law ' repealed, who will secure the mor f^r supplies? ?^seod preached .unday morn* gatton, consid ering tllv, t. weather was largo. The pc... e generally are weil pleased with the new Metho dist minister. Saturday afternoon's rain seem ed to be general, parties from Dar lington, Hurtsville, Mullins and North Carolina came in here on the train Saturday ni^ht and stat ed that it had rained very hard at all of those places. It is harder to collect accounts now than it was in mid-summer the trade during the fall was poor, and even no?" :* 's dull. We have I ot'*'- own of Clio, and impressed with ol* that place, ther towns in .v.M even Bennottsvillo, I out last week while there oven j busy Clio had caught the dull con I tagion and there was "nothing doing." We. are told that all classes of business is nt ft stand still nil over the country. Miss Ruth Patterson of Boylan, entered the Murchison Graded School last week. She is boarding with her cousin, Robt. IOasterling. Her father is salesman for lt. L, Kirkwood and also is boarding nt Mr. Easter ling's. D. N. Fowler hus completed his elegant new residence on Robeson street, and hus moved his family thereto it is a beautiful cottage. Policeman Harper hos moved into tho cottage vacated by K, K. Thomasson on Robeson street. J. Proston Gibson left Monday for Columbia, where ho will be for forty days during the session of tho legislature, Any of his friends find constituents desiring to communicate with him, will ad dress their letters to him, in care of House of Representatives. Mr. (iihson will favor thc Advocate and Democrat with letters from the legislature every week during tho session. ting oko AN ACCIDE Recalled by.*^?**~~ re u n lt tick, tnt* I ..^?i.l.t? -'.t..I,I. gay young widower" . ha was in town ono day . eek und among tho many .

Tho Bonnettsville live stock dealers are beginning to dispose of their mul?'s, and trade around all the stables is brisk and active, and tho prospects for business during tho year 1908 aro good and en couraging. Labor conditions aro not nor mal or there would not bo so much unpicked cotton in tho country. People generally dislike to give ' a mortgage on their farms, but] many of our best and largest plan ters yearly give liens to tho banks, on their growing crops, for money to buy supplies and pay for labor, with which to operate their farms during the year. With the lien law repealed, this cla^s of our far-, mers will be forced to give morta gages in order to secure cash to operate their large farming inter osts. Tho man without land or se curity will be left at the morey of ] thc landowner, who in many in stances is unable to help himself. Of course where the land owner is in a financial condition to take caro of and provide for the tenants on his place, the repeal of the law will bo of benelit to him and per haps to the tenants on his place, for it will force many who aro now trying to farm, to work for wages) and will have a tendency to make day or wages labor more plenti ful. Hut it will create a depress ion in business circles, and while it may ultimately result in good, in tho beginning it. will work se vere hardships. Much Coiion unpicked. Going from here through the I country to Clio one will be sur prised to sec the cotton lields white with cotton. Just after leaving town and nil thc way to Clio field after field is passed and from tho looks of them no cotton has been gathered at all. In many places the cotton has fallen out on tho ground and of course is rottening, In some places tho hands were in I tho lields but on last Friday morn ing it was too cold to permit of ?vt ii nh t>t\i ?/>.-> ni.'l.'iinr pick it out," he replied. "Tho fact stares us in the face today that unless thc coming session of tho legislature will pass some kind of a labor contract law the farming interests of this country are going to sillier. Since Judge Brawloy rendered his decision that the pres ent contract law is unconstitution al we farmers have had no pro tection." It was stated by several other fanners that they thought this phase of the present troubles was more urgent than thc lien law. Unpicked cotton lields, cotton rot tening, and with cotton bringing the price which it is, presents, to say the least, a situation calling for attention. The sentiment of tho leading farmers is that some law must be passed or the labor situa tion relieved. They declare that it is almost impossible to get help. As ono expressed it yesterday a man might furnish a hand until June and then that same hand could pick up and leave him, and there would be no way for the farmer to protect himself. In speaking with the lund own ers about, this situation it appears that they are about as much or even more interested in this than the repeal of the lien law. The white cotton lields with the cotton going to waste is enough to make one stop and think. One man estima ted the other day that the Hellion sect ion alone there was more than '200 bales of cotton in the Held un picked, representing something like 810,000 counting $50 to tho bale. -o*o NAVIGATION MEETING To he Addressed hy Distinguished Speakers Monday.

M A VOW I The Mass Meeting Refused to Nominate Mr. S?oilf?es' Suc cessor.

Tho mass meeting was called to order at 3 P M Wedn sd ay by Mayor Chaffin and the call for the meeting was read by the city clerk, A L Hamer. On motion of J W LcGrand, II W Carroll was elected chairman of tho meeting. Mr LcGrand nomi nated A L Hamer for secretary. C S Chaffin asked if Mr Hamer's not being a citizen of thc town would prevent him from serving. Mr Hamer withdrew his name, and on motion of Mr LeGrand, Ii Li Freeman was olected secretary. The chairman said that tho pur pose of the meeting was to nomi nate a candidato for mayor, and asked how tho nomination should be made. A illis Turlington moved that n primary bo ordered to nominate a mayor, and the motion was second ed by Chas Crosland and J li Samp son. J W LeGrand said bc favored a primary, but under the law gov erning primary elections, ten days notice would be required, and there would not be time for this i before the general election which had been ordered for next Tues day. Mr LeGiand ?aid he saw no 1 need of a primary in this instance, as the mass meeting was a repre sentative body of the business, ; thinking citizens of the town. s Mr Turlington said that the ' whole town was not represented in the meeting, and that ho saw no ; need of ten days notice fof a pri ) marv. It might be held tomorrow. ' Mr Carroll said that there j might be some legal questions in volved in changing tho system, and there should bo a full discus f sion. * L .) Breeden said that this meet second primary ung?a ue neces sary and that provision should bc made for it. Il II Newton said that if a pri mary were ordered it would have to be governed by the laws foi primary elections.
