SUBSCRIPTION ONE DOLLAR PER YEA H, H, W001>WAltD, IMitor THURSDAY. JAN 21, li)0<>. Hen Tillmau's would bo detractors aro very much like a gnat sitting on a bull's horn. In reference to the Tillman incident the "mountain went into labor and brought forth a mouse." Farmers should take a pride in improving their stock by the introduction of now and improved blood. It will be a paying investment. So far the "Pitchfork" has proven to be a more efficient instrument of warfaro than the "Big Stick" and Farmer Ben is using it with telling effect. The political pot is. boiling in Columbia and before the Legislature adjourns the next Governor of South Carolina and the State odicers will be done brown. The "dear people" can prepare to eat their dish of crow. A battle royal is'now raging with white heat intensity between President Roosevelt on the one hand and Senator Tillman on the other, the weapons being the famous "Big Stick" and the historical "Pitchfork." In the meantime the public awaits the issue with bated breath. We decline to publish Mr Gcrrald's communication for the reason that it is libelous and were we to do so an indictment for libel would lie. If the circumstances stated by Mr. Gerrald are true, and he can prove them, the court is the proper and only place for him to seek redress and obtain justice, Taft proposes to break the solid South by the free distribution of public pap. Mr Taft may honestly believe that he can turn the current of evonts by the liberal uso of federal patronage, and ho may have a feeling way down in his heart that theSouth has been unjustly treated by the powers that be and it is his purpoes to deal fairly with theSouth with the object of breaking the political solidity of thcrcountry south of the Mason and Dixon line, but it will do well for him to bear in mind that as long as 4ithere is a negro in the wood pile" the people of the Soutl will remain true to the tradition1 of the Fathers and revere and fol low their example. No more about the no fence lav if you please. Either make it ai issue and then discuss it; or, let i u t? ii? * ' " 1 tu uiuuu iur tuu present ana ouna u fences, cease shooting your neigb bor's stock and pay more attentioi to planting, cultivating and hai vesting your crops. Time is to precious to be flittered in the idl and premature discussion of an in portanc question. To discuss tb no fence law as it has been done i the recent past and to continue along the same lines makes it ted ous and monotonous and the peop become weary, so that when the i sue is really joined it will bo hard revive anything like a general inte est in the subject. Givo us a re for the present. DIVERSIFID FARMING. The farm should be made self st taming?that is it should made pa> all running expenses, includii food for man and beast. It stan to reason that, any other syste than this would be a financial failui As it is in farming so it is wi any other business enterprise, the business of the merchant dc not pay expenses he might as w close his doors and turn the k over to the tender mercy of t Sheriff, for he will have to do . sooner or later whether he wills not. If the farmer finds in castii up the profits and loss of the fai that his expenditures have be greater than bis receipts ho had bt ter lay away the shovel and the he turn the old horse out to die and e gage in a business at which he c at least make both ends meet T secret of successful farming depen as much upon the diversification nmrnii iri ifmii ,, i crops as H does upon industry, aud the successful farmers of ihis day and generation?those who are forcing to the front and stamping the impress of their success upon the community in which they reside? are those who have learned the secret and profited by the knowledgo. The first thing to bo done is to raise enough food supplies to furnish the farm with plenty of hog and hominy. It is cheaper to raise food stuffs than it is to buy Western corn, bacon, lard hay and flour from third hands on credit and there is lots more economy in having your corn crib and smoke house in your back yard than in having them in an elevator and a packing house in Chicago. It costs but very little, if any, more to raise a hog weighing from 400 to 000 pounds than it docs to raise one weighing from 50 to 100 pounds, and that there is more flesh and bone and muscle building materials In home raised meats than there are in the pressed meats of Chicago. The other crops such as cotton, tobacco and the surplusage of the fruit, berry and truck crops should be the money or profit crops. The one crop system has proven disastrous to many an otherwise good farmer and will continue to carry I many more to the mortgage mill land financial ruin if followed. Di! versified farming is the mortgage lifter, the bread and meat producer and will enable he who practices it to make home bright and cheerful by surrounding them with the comforts and conveniences of life and other pretty and attractive things dear to every feminino heart and at the same time enable tain, u be is frugal and industrious, to lay by a little for a rainy day when tho sere and yellow leaf comes on apace and the shadows are lengthening on tho olT side of the bill.

She died January 1st 1901), s having been sick only about six days, which seems to make it all the more sadder as it was so sudden and unexpected by relatives and friends. Her mother died several years ago, 7 also a brother near two years ago with that same disease, pneumonia. 11 Her father. Charlie B Blackburn, t six brothers, a step mother, one hall p brother and three half sisters still survive. Three own brothers now being in other States, who had nol n the privilege of again seeing hoi dead or alive, o She was about 211 years of age e having been born May, 1H75 Sh< was kind and generous in dispositioi lovable and friendly in feature, al 10 ways smiling, cherishing fonde n hopes for greater rewards?subdu it ing all griefs, trials and troubles ii j a Christian like manner. She professed religion only a fev ,e months ago and on her death be* s- seemed to cherish those preciou lo moments when the Lord pardon he r sins for Christ's sake who died fo all. She seemed only to retain th thought of all dying Christian me and women, "Oh! that I had onl done more for the blessed Savkur, and to this end hoped to again ge well, but seemingly to real'zo tha is- the angel of death was surely con to ing in spite of all that a kind phj sician and loving hands could d( k expressed her willingness to go.

President Helps Orphans. Hundred of orphans have been helped by tho President of the Industrial And Orphan's Home at Maeon, Ga., who writes: "Wo have used Electric Bitters in this Institution for nine years. It has proved a most excellent medicine for stomach, liver and kidney troubles. Wo regard it as one the best family medicines on earth." It invigorates the vital organs, purifies the blood, aids digestion, creates appetite. To strengthen and build up thin, pale, weak children or run down people it has no equal. Best for female complaints. Only 50 cents, at Norton Drug Co. Those who know say there will be more tobacco planted l.n this vicin ity the coming season than heretofore There seems to be a scarcity of tobacco seed and there is some kicking among the growers 011 this account.
