C. - JANUARY 30. 1913 GARY HiOTm, MANAGER En-ered at Pickens F%)stoMce ad Second Class Mail Matter The Sentinel is not responsible for the views of its corres pondents. Many Mines in South Carolina Gold, silver, copper, etc. many of these could be worked no doubt with profit; but in our opinion there is another mine more profitable than any yet mentioned, and that is the farm. Never has the farmer had a better outlook than now, 'Tis very tiue that last year was a short crop year, and many of our people were disheartened, so much so that many have left the farm and gone to work at the mills or some public works. But tue men who stick to the farms are the men who are go ing to find the gold. Right here in this God-f avor ed land of ours, with the finest climate, fertile soil, the purest water, the very breeze is laden with health producing proper ties; our farm laborers are not sufficient in number to cultivate the land; there is not being enough farm products produced to supply the demand. So it is very easy to see that the men who stick, to the farms will have a market at home for everything they can raise, and at good prices. The only discouraging feature we see about the farm is that some of our farmers come to town to buy hay and corn to feed their stock, when they ought to bring the hay and corn to town to sell. They could, and they will do so in a few years. Who's the guy that put the wet in weather? The Balkan allies say they will take more Turkey. The Milwaukee Sentinel re niiarks that lots of self-made men would have done a blamed sight better to have employed an architect. The Atlanta Journal opines that it is easier to deceive a girl than it is to fool her father's bull dog. We'll take the Jour nal's word for it. The ninth cotton ginning re port issued by the government on the 23d instant shows 13, 091,294 bales of cQtton ginned. South Carolina is credited with 1,192,267 bales averaging 500 pounds each. Here's to the faithful farmer, who tills the soil each year, who raises wheat and nlenty to eat, and has no wolf to fear; 'who raises hog and hominy for his family and himself, who has 11am meat in the smokehouse and sausage on the shelf. Making Virginia Rich on Whiskey The Progressive Farmer says: In this connection we are re minded that every now and then somebody comes along and says North Carolina !s making] Virginia rich on whiskey money. That is the remark a drinking man made in the presence of a: Virginia man in the office of. the Monroe Enquirer not long ago. Thereupon the Virginian responded in this illuminating manner, and we commend his response to all thoughtful peo ple: "I have been traveling in North Carolina since the first Hlearit,Sy The ailments of women include symptomsl of the heart.

I havt been across the State, east and west, nr.-'t: and south; have been in ijio of the towns, and I have not had a man to ask me for a dime to buy a drink with, and I have noticed the absence of bums, and liquor-soaked down-and-outs on the streets of the towns of this State. Iwent home three weeks aao last Saturday, and I went only three or four blocks after leaving the depot, and during that walk three liquor-soaked bums, white men, who were simply down and-out, asked me for a dime. Around the six or seven bar rooms that I, passed in that short walk I saw more drunken men than I have seen in North Carolina since last August. Yes, they are sending the money to our State for liquor, and it may be making some of our folks rich. but I'll tell you, old man, it is making many of our people poor. The Death Penalty Hon. Fred Williams has in troduced a bill in the legislature to abolish the death penalty. For once the writer agrees with him. It is almost unthinkable that we should live in this enlightened, progressive age and still cling to the barbarous and inhuman practices of the dark ages. capital punishment cannot be justified upon any ground. It is contrary to reason, natdre and the law of God. Every man has a right to enjoy that which God gave him, and which God alone could give-life, and no man or set of men either voluntarily or by promulgation of law has a right to deprive man of his life. The only argument for the death penalty is the protection of other lives and virtue in the pinishment by death of an offender. But this argument falls when it is remembered that murders, rape, and arson, for whlch the death penalty is prescribed are of almost daily occurence and with the death penalty staring them in the face. The most effective remedy would be to prevent as far as possible the causes which give rise to the commission of such crimes. For example let the laws provide that liquor shall not be sold or used except for compounding medicines under heavy penalty. Make it a nen itentiary offence for anyone to own a pistol. And then provide a lifetime imprisonment at hard labor for anyone and everyone convicted of any of the crimes for which the death penalty is now provided, and make the law so the goyernor should not be allowed to exercise clemency in such cases. It is feared, however, that Mr. Williams will find it very difficult to get his bill through with the sentiment that now prevails in this State in favor of capital punishment. A large per centage of the people seem ngly favor the practice, and many became impatient at the law and take into their own hands the summary punish ment of a certain class of crimi nals, But this should not de ter him from making the effort to lead people away f rom such barbarious practices, but should enconrage and inspire him to renewed vigor. He is on the right track, the one-which leads ut of darkness, superstition and practices of the buried past into the light of the Chris tian Civilization of the 19th century.

Il by occup suffered I coul frien Th Jo Jo Writes Again Mr. Editor: I want to inform your correspondent Reader that I never injected foreign missions into the controversy. I only mentioned the collection of money in that name. the por tion of that money that was used for other purposes as men tioned, schools, dispensaries and trades called industrial work in foreign lands. Reader takes great exceptance to the mentioning of this work and sets forth the great amount of money given for state, home and foreign mission work. and mentions the vork that I spoke of as though he would have you believe it was mission work. You can see from the tenor of his article that he thinks that our good hearted doctors will not refuse to treat the poor, At the same time he defends the action of the foreign mission board in establishing free dis pensaries in foreign lands and employing doctors to administer medicine free to both rich and poor alike. See minutes "of Southern Baptist Convention of 1908, page 67. It says 38000 treated last year. This report says some of the hospitals are too small and they are needing rore now in all the charitable work as he mentions. Would it not be more in the spirit of true charity to arrange for our doctors at home, who do ot ask for a salary to treat uch poor as Reader speaks of, he father who drank up his iving and the sober man who ave the last nickle for. candy and toys, to arrange free medi ine for that class, than to giye t to the rich of other nations? he poor ye have always.
