The Department of Agriculture is a satisfied that an (lhicient cotton piic. ing machine has been invented. The Apparatus was designed by G. A. Lowry who invented the round bale cotton packing outfit There are but two doctors of Medi cinoin the entire Congress of the United States, and both of these are in the Senate. Almost every other occupation fi om log rolling to pagi lism is representLed in the lower house. The Kansas Ligislature proposesI to have its convicts work the oil re fineries in opposition to the Standa.rd Oil Company A ccoding to Tom Lawson the competition will be bot. ween mun who are in j il and those who ought to be. It is difficult to understand why otherwise intelligent 1nen ill allow five hundred or a thousand dollars -worth of cotton to lieout in the weath er all winter, when they would not let fifty cents worth of corn ho out over night. One thing certain, western farmer-3 do not treat their hay that wa. "Why everybody knows that lie Devil and his political benebmon are on the Dispensary t-ide of the ques tion. It was Conceived in the womb of Hell, and born amid the shouts of demons, and has draggad its slimy tail through every phase of South Carolina politics for twelve long yearg."-Rev. H. L. Baggot in South Carolina Baptist. Gaffney News: Mr. Toyfor Petty was in the city yesterday and said that ho hnd 125 bales of cotton that could be had whenoi it went to ten cents, but that it could not ho had tat one cent less thanc that. If all the I farmers w~ouIld go out with that detOr- < intation it wvill biring ten cnts-- e wvhat it, is worth. We need more men with the grit of' Mr. Potty.

Ive rats were dis covered by lhim in his barn wvith their tails so interwoven withl a c'oth string that they could1 not get apart They were ats compiiletely tied together as a whip, though all alive and each doing their best to get relased. It is a mystery howv th'*y c 'told have worked their tails in to sucoh ai kn it It ha s been a som11Ce of c-maiderable com-. ment (in Ithe btretds by all wvho saw it.

T'he 0 purest whis-key will kill in time if oi used in suflicient qluanltitieP, but these t< eneaper comnpoumnds and imitations a do their work ini short order. -York- a d Two thousand weekly papers ai~d 250 daily papers, reaching every h household ini the South, have taken o part in the great cotton holding moe men t, airginog on thtefarmers the nee sity of reducing their acreage and fer. tilizer bills din-g coming year. Yet, in the face of this fact, one of tihe first to *propositions made, after perfecting an organization in Columbia last week was to mnvest a lot of money in estab lishing a new paper)O as an organ for the cotton growers. What more could an "organ" do than the newspapers [11 have done, are doing and evintie -a thg readiness to dou?

This is certainly an improvement u the practice in this country, where case is liable to be balked at any imo by the sudden illness of a juror, iut a blight change in our jury system vould give us a still bettor law.

C, March 11, .1905. Mr. Editor: Please allow mue a fow wor(Is in the columnis of your paper ,m) the whiskey questioin, as I see Silimany letters about doing away vith (ho dispensary. I am ono vbO thinkis it would-be a wiso step o make, for the stuff is so rotten t stinks; it makes soino nen such ools tint they don'l know whether he are on their heels or on their Leads. I think the citizens ot lickons county should hold an lection to vote it out, as it is a -urse to the county and a disgrace ;o the town of Pickous. When I seo a mian who Ias (I rank he devilieh stuff until he is drunk Ind staggering f'romn ono sido of he street to the other and cnrsing vCry man h1e meots and using pro a nO lnguaige mi the pre'sence otf adies it reinds me of the devil ntoro thant anaythinmg else that I canI omapaire in to, anid old disponm ary lhquor is the causn of it. Why ot (10 away with it? We have cople that profess to be christians hat will go to Pickens and canu't cave without going mn the dispen sary and getting a bottle of "'fuss K." or "'Hollering John"' or what wver you may call it, beforo t hey 3an come home, and theni C~ co home about three sheets in the wmnd and the other sheet a shaking. ~Some mieni will got drnnk ont :lispensary wiskey and. fall out withi his neoighbor and someotimes kill himi, andl~ the causeo of it is w'hik'-y. Why ntot do away wi'th he d ispensnr y at Pickq'u and1( jave a civiliz.'d count'yt and say lhat Pickenas countly will not have 1,lispeneary. So long as the faithers of good biIldreni and the husbands of good Vivyes v'ote for it ando drinki I it when bey can get it, many men will pond all their wages for dlis;>en ary whiskey wvhile theiri fianmlios re at home crying for breid. Some w ill ask what abo.ut theo lockade whiskey. Why, if there as a blockade si~ill on~ evory ranch in Picker s county it would ath be much scandal to the >un ty as the dispensary dtuck up Sthe side of main streeat in a >wn, with the dloor stand1i .g op.,n id the bottles in view, It will loost t'3mfpt a man waen ho ouldn 't think it would t isee the svilish stuiY hofore him.. It would be a long wvays more onorable for the town to havo an Id ox wagon loaded with foe ilizer stand on the side of Ma in street tan to have a dispensiary stuck there.
