For somo time we have been con templating Rhanges and improve. ments in this paper and now we have begunito make them. YoU notice the sizeof the pape ? This size will be maintained and even added to, as the patronage justifies. We want the hearty encouragemont and co-operation of every person in the county, so that we can maintain the standard we have set for this paper. Your support will inuro our reaching our aims. We have added largely to our equipment-gasolino engine, electric lighting plant, a seven column quarto Babcock Standard press, that runs smoothly at a speed of 1,800 papers per hour, a folding machine that folds, cuts and pastes the papers to. gether, a mailing machine whereby dated labels will be put on the papers sll ing your account at a glance. pe, job presses and job been added and, for a 'dy office, - we can not be .A equipment in the South. The mechanical department is under the management of Mr. J. H1. Beard, a very efficient newspaper and job man. Mr. R. E. Goodwin will have charge of the books and accounts and will look closely after collections. It| his policy, which will ba ad. o, of not accepting a single - tion, no matter who it is, enUjJ the cash accomp~anios it and to stop the paper on date paid to, un-' less a renen al is received before that time. No man, however great, nmo mat. ter how rich, nor who he is, can get this paper any other way. The editorial and local depart. ments will he watched after closely and improved, and the correspon dence page will be filled each week with bright and newsy letters from all paris of the county. All advertising wvili be inserted at the legal rates allowed by law -and everything about tbe office will be conducted on a strictly business basis, paying -all our bIlls in cash * when due and all parties dealing with us will be compelled to do the same. Such in brief, friends, is an outline of the policy of the paper. It will be a strictly adhered to. A serial story, dress making de. 11 signs with an opportunity to buy the patterns, a department for the fairm and home, notes ibout our rral friends, country correspondence an d strong editorial and bright local pages, are among the many changes, improvements and new features that we offer for your consideration, and hope that you will help us to put forward a good paper. We will offer several good pre. miums in combination with our sub. corIption price that will pay .you to ivestigate. ~Them fate of publication has been changed eo as to get the paper to all oour' rural friends on Saturday and they go read fresh news at their Ieisnye Sundays.

We publish a article from Ander son about tle yXteaision of the pick ene Raflroitiu t that point. This is agitation in the right direction and a consumation that is to be devoutly hoped for. May it materialize. The extehtion of the road means much to Pickens, much to Anderson and much to all points along the line. Much to Anderson because it opens up a good scope of country to her merchants and another outlet and a connection, by a convenient schedule, with the Southern Railway; it means much to Pickens for it gives her railroad facilities that will benefit her a great deal by giving a through ser vice from the South and Florida points and will have much to do with making this a fine resort 4ectiun; it adde imuch to the importance and ad. vantage of Easley, fo with the con nectiou of the 0. & W. 0. Ry. at Atnderson, froighL rates would cut an item, because goods to her merchants could be routed over the Seaboard Air Line, besides the increase of trade this road would bring within her borders; it means much to the intermediate section by opening up their territory and making a market for their products. By all means let's work to extend the Pickens Railroad on to Anderson. How does this proposition strike the people of A nde'son? Instructions have been sent out from the postmaster general in regard to a late order of the pestoffico do partmeut concerning box rent, it, which the following language is usta: "No box can bu assigned to the use of aly individual, faily, firm, cor pora'.,ion or, public offlicial until rent thereon has been paid in advance foi one quarter or the unexpired portion of a quarter. - If box renters do iot renew their rights to boxes in use by them by the payment of rent bolort the 10th of January, April, July and October, you must close their boxfE against thom, placo their mail in thl general delivery and rent boxes form. erly Used by them. No exctption tc this rule will be permitted." Boi renters should comply with this order and save themselves annoyance and the postmaster embarrassment. It you desire to retain your box have the courago to inform the postmaster and pay up. The postoffiw deal)rttmn'ut has made a nflw ruling on mail matter addressed to patrons on rural routes which wil1 bo of great benefit in this country when the reorganization of the systo'u goes into effect this fall. Under the new ruling p)ostmasters are allowed to forward papers as well as mail matter from one oflice to an other where the person addressed is on a rural route. In tihe many chianges from one postomice to another that will result when the new routes are established it will require several months for tihe patrons to have their mail prop~erly addressed, and while there will necessarily be delays, mamil of every character will finally reach the party' to whom it wvas addressed. How many battleships will event ually satisfy the navy? wvas the~ ques tion recenitly put to a naval oflicer b~y -the Washington c3orrespoudent of thme New York Evenmng Post. "Seventy," was the answer, and1 the neceseary disposition of 72 battleships was1 do tailed as 16 on the Atlantic Coast, 24 oui the Gulf of Mexico and the Carib bean Sea, 16 on tile [Pacitie Coast, and 16 in tihe Phillippines. Seornty battleships would cost at prevailing figures about $550,000,000, mom e rather than less. No city of sizeo and enlterpriso should be without a comnmittce, even if there-is but ono on it; to see that "the stanger within the gates"~ worthy it ho welcomed and shown the residence and business attrac tions. The disposition is too often "to take him in" to his immediate sorrow and occasionally lasting re gret.~ Our citizens could profitably employ some one of integrity, eour tesy and good judgment to get busy with tbe visitor hero in ai right way. .Wiscopsin newspapers are all send. ing out 28-page supplemonts. Under a newv statute, the laws enacted at each sessIon of the legislature aile published in every paper in the stot whose publisher is williog to perfor~m that serv'ice for $100. Few deline, ma thus there goes a copy of the ession laws into nearly ever y home. r e Wisconsin plan certainly makes gnorance of the law as inexcusable norally as. legally. Talk about race suicide.
