THE KERNAI. TALKS LIKE A PHILOSOPHER. He Conveys The News Of His Section To All Of Cherokee Through The Medium Of The Ledger. Etta Jane, March 1.—Col. Dick Jolly, or rather Jolly Dick, was around last Wednesday, looking after the roads and voters in this section. Our friend, Az. McWhirtcr paid us a call last week. He soys he tvill be sure to hang nobody unless they need it. The best description of a dyspeptic I have seen, is this: A delicate per son who has to have special dishes prepared for him, and then whirls in and eats some of everything on the table, when he knows it will hurt him. Tho professional politician is some what like a flea. He is ever itching for a place, creates no end of distur bance, and you can't put your finger on him or tell when he is going to light. Rev. Mr. Moody says, “want of moral courage keeps many persons out of the church.” It is also want of moral courage that keeps many in the church. The principal difference between a fool and a wise man is, the fool talks most when he has the least to say. A. E. Susong, Esq., of Warren burg, Tcnn., is in this section on business. The public roads since tho storm of Monday night, has been in a had condition—mud and gullies every where. We have some people of strong race prejudice. They are mostly those who bet on the losing horse. ' A man may bo so absorbed in the study of scieuce as to forget every thing else, but he never fools with electricity or power more than once if he knows it. II. B. McDaniel has moved back into York county. His kind friends gave him much assistance, which we highly appreciate—having as many friends as any poor man. The newspaper is a public educa tor, and it should be treated as such in the home. Let the children have an opportunity to read of all tho in teresting events, and the home will be as it ought to be. For every false pleasure tho devil promises God is willing to give us a thousand real ones. Putting little thoughts in big v.ords don’t make them weigh any more. Mr. J. II. Fowler is suffering great ly with his eyes, and fears are enter tained that he may lose one or both of them. Messrs. Bruacale and Bacon, of Spartanburg, passed through this section last week with a sample or gan—they are selling for Alexander tfc Son, of Spartanburg. The piety of tho man who looks dismal at the prayer meeting and happy at the circus, is of a very poor variety. A poor Japanese woman came to a Christian teacher and begged her to care for a ragged, forlorn child say ing, “please take tho little baby, your God is the only God that teach es us to be good to little children.” If good resolutions were horses everybody would ride. The fear of hell alone never fits a man for Heaven. The devil is generally the gainer when a young man thinks he is his own master. « When we open our mind to let in good thoughts the evil ones get out in a hurry. It is something strange to us how some children can survive the out rages of tho school house. When a teacher is an expert at shuffling cards rather than solving arithmetical pro blems, or when his knowledge of chemistry doesn’t go beyond his abil ity to judge corn liquor, it is time for him to step down and out. There is a candidate in this coun ty for the lunatic asylum. He want ed to know of his wife if wearing his pants wrong side out would put the holes in the knees behind his legs. Mr. Lem Brown says if an ewe has two lambs, and one of them is a black one, she will always own tho white one and knock off the nigger. Rev. Mr. Isom preached an excel lent sermon yesterday, at Messapo- tuma. His text was “One Tiling.’' It is found in the following scripture references and their various connec tions: Psalms 28:1, Mark 10:21, Luke 10:42, John 9:25, Philipptans 3:13. Summing It all up that “One Thing” is entire consecration. Wilmer, the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. II. B. McDaniel, fell in the fire last Thursday, and got her face burned. “Why is it that we can't draw any money for our free schools until the taxes of 1897 are collected? This question is now agitating tho minds of our people, and it is one which ought to bo answered by those who know. Some of our schools in Gow- dysvillo township haven’t drawn a dollar of public money this winter, and they began about tho last of De cember. It is just that we of the new coun ty assume our part of the old coun ty’s indebtedness without any right to receive what school and road money belongs to us? Does the law and constitution dismiss us from the oldoounty without any claims on it whatever, except our part of its in debtedness? Does it propose to dis inherit the “cut offs,” and at the same time hold it responsible for its pro rata share of the family expen ses,’without turning over what rich ly and lawfully belongs to it. These questions must bo answered. The people are restless. Law is the very essence of human reason and common sense, and if we are to pay our part of the old coun- y’s debts, (which wo cheerfully do.) we ought to have oA part of what money we earned and put into its treasury while we were a member of its family. Does the old county propose to treat us as the parents does tho naughty girl who runs off ai.d gets married to some trifling fellow with out their consent, by refusing to let her have her clothes? \Yo haven’t done anything wrong. We went out of tho old county in the broad light of day. and under the clear sky of the constitution. The framers of the constitution gave their constituents credit for hav ing common sense, aud didn’t think it necessary in detail, to set forth in tl at document that the “cut offs” must have their apportionment of the school and road monies in their respective county treasuries when they went out. They assume and carry with them their part of the old county debt, and why efu-’t they get their interest in the school and road fund. The masses of the people of the old counties are not to blame for tnis. They don’t want our money and would’nt have K if they know it. Its another case of bungling legislation for which this State has become no torious. We leave the old county with good revenue for them, good people, and with our very best wishes for them, and set up Louse-keeping for the con venience and betterment of ourselves aud posterity. God being our helper we intend to make Cherokee county the Gr#3ce, and Gaffney City, the Athem of South Carolina, and if the old mother counties or any part of them, want to break up house-keep ing and come and live with us we will take them in, and take good care of them as long as they behave them selves. Mr. Editor, I want leave of absence for about a month in order to make a canvass of tho new county, and I hope to get acquainted with every man, woman and child in it, and find out about both its natural and artifi cial resources, etc., and afterwards I intend to give The Ledger readers a general “write up” of my observa tions.

Esterly stable yesterday, got caught between a vehicle and the door facing and was quite badly hurt. Hislinjurles, however, are not thought to be serious. Ben Price, a colored man of Web ster, joined The Ledger list this week. There are a number of pro gressive colored men who take the paper and we hope to have quite a large number yet to join us. Tho type last week made us say that Aunt Folly Petty’s ninety-fourth birthday came on March 18 when it should have been the 8th, next Mon day. There will be a big gathering and plenty good things to eat on that occasion. With this issue wo begin a year’s contract to advertise the remedies of tho Chamberlain Medicine Co., of Des Moines, Iowa. This is the third contract we have carried for this house, and we bare foqnd them relia ble in every respect. It is not often we recommend preparatory medicines but Chamberlain’s remedies are all they ciaim for them. We have used their cough syrup and know it tu be a good article. In (act we do not advertise for apy poncern that wo do not knqw tojbo reliable, so we have no hesitoncy in recommending any advertisement in our paper, as we are very particular to guard against fraudulent concerns. Wo wish to protect our subscribers, and to that end we investigate every firm that asks us for rates. — -« •* —» Death of Mrs. Carter. Mrs. J. G. Carter, wife of Rev. J. G.

Ravena, March, 2.—As I hav’nt seen anything lately from the corres pondents of this neighborhood I have concluded to undertake the job. lam a school giri in my “teens” atpl must be excused for any blunder I may make. I am. and alwsys have been a full pledged “Cherokee” but I do not think the election ought to have taken place until after the crops are laid by. I hear that it is said nobody from White Plain need apply for office I do not think it fair. The strongest upponent of the new county has as much rights before tho people as the strongest advocate, because he is bound to contribute to its support as much as his apponent. Besides it requires manly courage to oppose a majority. The people are beginning to sow oats where the ground Is dry enough but I fear tiiat a small acreage will he sown owing to the condition of the earth. „ There are a few cases of lagrippe in this neighborhood but nearly ali have recovered. Mr. G. \Y. Chalk has been down since about the first of January but is able to walk out again, Miss Addle Brown the accomplished assistant of Cowpens Acadamy visi ted Ravena last week. Miss McArthur teaching the Goncher school. I understand, is pop ular with teachers and pupils. Miss Paulino Petit,one of our most popular girls, has just returned from Corinth neighborhood where she has been teaching a public school. Miss Ola Lipscomb, a very popular teacher, has charge of the White Plains school. Schoolgirl. Beware 0! the Knife. Mr. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfield, Mo., writes: “For six years I have been • sufferer from a scrofulous affection of the glands of my neck, and all efforts of physicians in Washington, D. C., Springfield, 111., and St. Louis failed to reduce the enlargement. After six months’ constant treatment here, my physician urged me to submit to a re moval of the gland. At this critical mo ment a friend recommended S.S.S., and laying aside a deep-rooted preju dice against all patent medicines, I be gan its use. Before I had used one bot tle the enlargement began to disappear, and now it is entirely gone, though I am not through with my second bottle yet. Had I only used your S.S.S. long ago, "1 would have escaped years of misery and saved over $150.” This experience is like that of all who suffer with deep-seated blood troubles. The doctors can do no good, and even their resorts to the knife prove either fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only real blood remedv; it gets at the root of the disease and forces it out perma nently. S.S.S.
