With this issue of The Ledger it begins its fifth year. During the four years that have passed since its establishment it has appeared 209 times, never having missed a single issue. It was started at a time when many similar attempts to rur a news paper in Gaffney had failed, and some judicious men thought that the jour nalistic capacities of Gaffney and the surrounding country were not suffi cient to justify the outlay necessary to run a paper on the scale which The Ledger proposed to run. But the paper was established, and it has never for one day been in peril. It's success was assured from the very start, and its course has been steadily onward and upward. It has steered clear of all bitterness and partisan strife and put forth its best efforts towards the upbuilding of ali the best interests of our community, and we have today every reason to believe that those efforts have been appreciated. We have a bona fide circulation now of 1,500, and our subscription list is steadily increasing. Our ad vertising patronage, too, has been liberal, and the paper today is on a broad and sure foundation. We do pot b*?U<?ve in boating of what wc have done in the past nor In making extravagant promises for the future. We thank our friends sincerely for the steady support and encourage ment which they have given us, and we hope that we shall be able to give them better services during the years to come than we have done in those that are past. HEALTH AND LONG LIFE. However in hours of disappoint ment and gloom, we may talk about life’s not being worth the living, yet the fact remains that the vast ma jority of mankind desire to live, and to live as long as possible. When a man begins to realize that his bodily powers are on the wane, that the op portunities of life are closing, that his best days arc* now all in the past, and that but little now remains for him but to join •‘The Innumerable caravan that moves To that mysterious realm, where each shall take Ills chamber In the silent halls of death," no matter how pure his life may have been, nor how strong may be his faith in a future life of uninterrupted hap piness, he would gladly delay his de parture if he could, and find some way “to husband out life’s taper at the close.” Unfortunately this anxiety to prolong earthly existence does not usually become strong until one has reached a point too near the end for the means which he would find to have their full effect. To the young and vigorous, the years to come seem almost interminable; it is only when those years have vanished like a dream, and the man awakes some fine morning to the fact that fifty or sixty of them have passed that he begins to look upon the finale with real anxiety. But even then he finds great diffi culty in fully realizing the fact that he is an old man and appreciating the importance of modifying his habits and adapting himself to chang ed conditions. He is unwilling to acknowledge even to himself, that he cannot do as he has always done. He has always braved the weather with impunity; he has eaton what he wanted, and as much as he wanted; he has been accustomed to perform feats of strength, and even of violent physical exertion whenever occasion demanded ; and he looks with a sort of contempt upon the younger men around him who have less strength and endurance than he has. Nature warns him in vain that his recupera tive powers are not what they have been, and observant friends remon strate equally to no purpose. He persists in disregarding all warning, and by and by overtaxes his strength or endurance, and cuts off ten to twenty years of life. We verily believe that this is a cor rect history of the majority of thqse who die in the early periods of old age. When a man roaches sixty and finds himself in ordinary health, he has positive evidence of a sound con stitution and strong vitality; and with proper care, there is no palpa ble reason why ho may not enjoy the pleasure of a green old age and reach his three score and ten, or oven his fouif-score years. The limit of three score years and ten was fixed in a semi-harbarous age, before men had learned anything about the science of living. Notwithstanding the strain of modern life and the many exact ing demands made on the vital pow ers by modern civilization, it is a fact that the average of human life is gradually lengthening. Whatever we may think of the men of more primitive times, the conditions of life to-day are more favorable to lon gevity than they were then. King David is represented as dying literal ly and solely of old age; yet King David was only about seventy-two, fifteen years youngerjthan Gladstone, and more than twenty years younger than Peter Cooper when he died. Dr. Thomas Dick, who wrote over fifty years ago, noted the gradual in crease in the length of human life, and predicted that the time will come again on this earth, when as a result of the progress of medical science, and a knowledge of the laws of hy giene human life may he protracted to the limits of the lives of the pa triarchs, and even beyond. A question of overwheming impor tance to the young as well as the old. is how to live and act so as to con tribute most to vigorous health and least to the jenervation of the vital powers. The man or the woman who pays due and intelligent regard to this question, and pays it in time, will, on general principles, be re warded with the enjoyment of a long and happy life. The importance of this question is clearly indicated in the saying “sick ly people live a long time.” Dr. Hall, the editorof Hall’s Journal of Health, mentions this saying, and adds that it contains much truth. The expla nation of the paradox is to he found in the fact that as soon as a man dis covers that he is sickly he will begin to husband his resources, and to obey as ivell as ho can, the laws of health, and this obedience, imperfect as it may be, will keep the machinery of life from stopping. Most of us have known persons of feeble, diseas ed bodies to live on through decades that swept thousands of the hale and hearty to untimely graves. We re member a few years ago to have been surprised when talking with a portly, fresh looking octogenarian, we learn ed that during his youth and early manhood he had been the sickly one of a large family, too frail and deli cate to work or to give promise of accomplishing anything in life. Our surprise was diminished when we learned that throughout his long life he had been a man of simple temper ate habits and of great equanimity of disposition. In short he had merely clung through life to the habits which he had been forced by his con dition in youth to form. The lesson from such examples is plain. You will find all of our octogenarians men of simple habits— men who through life, have held a strong rein on the appetites and pas sions, and who have expended their energies and vftal forces with the same caution, care and economy that they have exercised in spending.thcir money. WorK, either physical or mental, does not hurt anybody. It is a law of our being. It is excessive, inju dicious work that shortens life; while anxiety is the friction that wears out the machinery. We believe, too, that there are more human bones mouldering under the dinner table than on any battle field of human history. But we have not space to discuss this subject fully. Indeed no rules can be formulated that will apply to to individual cases. Every man must, more or less, be a law unto himself. In the matter of diet. What is one man’s food is another man’s poison. But it is an easy matter for a man to keep an eye on himself and to note the effects of different arti cles of food on his system, both as to quality and quantity. If he is wise he will do this, and profit by his knowledge. BREADTH OR DEPTH. In a recent issue of the Union Times, the editor of that paper deliv ered himself of the following: "If thero U anythin* that this State d< e4 need at this time It Is broad-minded, libera men of culture. Oh! for u rest from nar row-minded bigots! It almost seems to us, and we hate to make the assertion that the denominational institutions of learning In tills fctate ara about as great a clog to progress as anything in it They have a great many good, learned, true men connected with them, and they send out to the world some few of the above kind, hut the annual crop of bigots that they turn out every summer, we fear, more than coun terbalances the good ones. * * * The great majority of these graduates return to their people with narrow and perverted ideas, and instill them into others. We want Urst-class State Institutions of learning that will graduate men of broad UImtuI minds, that by their daily lives will preach the creed that by the grace of God all men can be saved and by that alone. Away with narrow-minded religious fanat ics and bigots, they give us the hiccoughs. There Is no truer sign of ignorance, and their presence Is a crying need for higher and more liberal education." If we remember correctly, the above mentioned editor has frequently heretofore aired such doctrines in his paper and exhibited himself to the admiring gaze of the public, as a man of too broad and liberal views to be a member of any church. We are inclined to think that our esteemed contemporary in taking his own measurements for the information of the public, has got his dimensions mixed, and has unconsciously substi tuted breadth for depth. If there is any organization among men broader in its spirit than a Christian church, we have never yet heard of it. In its plans and purpo ses, hopes and aspirations, it takes in the whole world, all time, all eternity. The mightiest earthly kingdom, must of necessity, perform its operations within certain geographical boun daries and in limited periods of time. The humblest Christian church is not hampered by any limits either of space or time. If our esteemed con temporary spread himself out until he shall bo broader than this, he will reach such a degree of tenuity that a hundred fold multiplication of him will fail to conjure up the ghost of a shadow. We advise nim to turn his tape line downwards and measure his depth. We think if he will, he will find thr.t he has been dealing with the wrong dimension. That our denominational colleges are turning out an annual crop of bigots, we emphatically deny; and our contemporary’s admission that they send out “some few” good, learn ed, and true men. does not save his declaration from being a groundless and unwarranted aspersion. They are the only colleges that can con sistently teach “that by the grace of God all men can he saved, and by that alone;” and if such a doctrine is ever taught in a State college, it is done by some individual teacher on« his own responsibility, and he has received his inspiration, not from the State, but from those same influences that pervade the denominational col leges. The State, as such, knows nothing of God, much less of His grace. ENTRIES FROM OUR DAY BOOK. The work of the Legislature is ended and the members will ail prob ably reach their homes today.- The tangible results of the session can be summed up in a few words. The tax levy has been raised to 5 mills, the appropriations have been made in full, the liquor question is about where it was, except that three coun ties have been exempted from the operations of the dispensary law, some sort of a county government bill has been passed from which Cherokee county is exempt; there has been the usual amount of wrang ling over the Jim Crow car bill, and this, that, and the other, and the session has cost the tax payers over $50,000. If there is anything In the result worth one-tenth of the money it has cost, we cannot see it. We favor a biennial session, and we favor that only as a stepping stone to quad rennial, and that as a further step ping stone to sexcennial sessions. There is more money in the poul try business in the United States than there is in the cotton crop; and in addition to money there are other things in it which money can not buy. Our experience is that the fine large breeds do not pay, except in the way of crossing with the com mon stock, and in having a few of them to look at. They are lazy and thriftless, scanty layers and Indiffer ent mothers. The best results are to be obtained by keeping a rooster of the large breeds to about every twelve common hens, and in order to do this, you must raise a few of the pure breeds or buy a rooster every year or two. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The State Senate has refused to repeal the antl-free pass law by a de cided majority. So we shall proba bly hear little more of free passes till another session of the legislature. | Why a large number of the members of the house are so restless under this law wo can account for only on the hypothesis of greed and selfish interest. They claim that this law is a standing reflection upon their honor. Just so. and the more’s the pity. They should remember that the average politician’s honor, in these degenerate times, is not exactly of that type which is “as pure us er mine and will not bear a stain.” ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The Senate did right, too, in re fusing to endorse the cut made by the house in the appropriation to the South Tarolina College. We think that the State is overloaded with colleges, and that one college prop erly equipped could do all the work that the three are doing, and do it at one half the expense to the people. But if we must have these Col leges we believe in giving them support sufficient to warrant and de mand the highest degree of efficiency; and when the time comes to kill one or more of them let’s put them to death by a more humane mode than that of slow starvation. Minister DeLome, who with great ability has long represented the gov ernment of Spain at Washington, wrote a letter to a friend in which he spoke of President McKinley as “a low politician, seeking to keep in fa or with the jingoes of his party.” Somehow the letter got into print and as apologies were not in order, the haughty minister was compelled to pack his trunk and go where he can say what he pleases about Presi dent McKinley. In the meanwhile the relations of the two governments are not interrupted, and the sun rises and sets as usual. February has brought a fine spell of weather for farm work. We hope the farmers have taken advantage of it to sow a largo ar^a of their cot ton lands in oats. According to our observation and experience oats sown on pretty good land in February will give a surer and better yield than those sown in the fall or at arty other time of the year. They may not grow so high nor be so heavy as the fall cats, bpt they will escape the effects of the winter freezes, and you will he almost sure to have a good stand. According to Senator Archer of Spartanburg, Clemson College re ceived last year $102,000, and Wic- throp $77,000. It costs somebody $2G3 per capita for every student in Clemson and $237 in Winthrop. A<- cording to Winthrop’s catalogue, a girl who takes the full course there will have to pay herself from $180 to $200. Are we to add this amount to the $237? We soon get lost wiien we begin to deal with figures repre senting the money voted away by our law makers. Senator Tillman’s plan to have congress pass a law allowing the State to prohibit the original pack age men from operating within our borders, has failed. His hill was killed by a tie vote in committee, and cannot now get before congress ex cept by unanimous consent, which cannot possibly be obtained. So the o. p.’s must not be disturbed, and the whole liquor question is in a muddle. The news comes from Boston that the most gigantic strike over seen on this continent is being organized among the cotton mill operatives, It will effect 147,000 operatives and stop every cotton mill in New Eng land. This in the land of free achools, free transportation, free books and compulsory education. The Tempi* of Solomon. A noted statistician and investipator who has lots of time for such work has been doing some figuring on the cost of tho temple of Solomon, cays tho Phil adelphia Record, and says few people even iu these days of palmy extrava gance and millionaire display have an adequate impression of the enormous cost of tho great temple. According to Villalpaudus, tho “talents” of gold, sil ver and brass were equal to the enor mous sum of £0,879,822,000. The worth of the jewels is placed at a figure equal ly as high. The Teasels of gdd, accord ing to Josephus, were valued at M0,000 •talents, which, reduced to English mon ey, was equal to £57'), 290,203. Tho ves sels of silver, according to tho same au thority, wero still more valuable, being set down as worth £646,344,000; priests’ vestments aud tho robes of singers, £2 - 010,000, and the trumpets, £200,000. To this add tho expense of the build ing material, labor, etc., aud some wou- derful figures result. Ten thousand men hewing cedars, 00,000 bearers of bur dens, 80,000 hewers of stone, overseers, all of whom were employed for seven years and upon whom, besides their wages, Solomon bestowed £6,783,970. If their daily food was worth 50 cents each, the sum total for all was £03,- 877,088 during the time of building. Tho materials iu the rough are estimat ed as having been worth £2,545,337,- 000. This gives a total just for this much of the expense, which by no means expresses tho whole cost, of £10,- 719,760,201, or about £52,117,084,867.- 40. Both Made tho Same. Frank L. Stanton says that on one occasion when William Hamilton Hayne was visiting Samuel Mintum Peck at tho latter’s home in Tuskalcosa the two poets strolled into tho Woods and paused to rest beneath the shadows of the pines. “Hero are your favorite pines, Harne, ” said Peck. “Let’s dream a few poems beneath them.” The lan guid summer day had its effect on them, aud they were soon snoring and dream ing away. But suddenly both awoke aud started down the home road at top speed, shouting as they ran. An army of yellow jackets had discovered them, and, not being partial to poetry, had forcibly and feelingly resented its intru sion on their domain. Later, at supper, Peck asked, “Did you make a poem, Hayne?” .“No,” was the meek reply. “I made a poultice.” 1 “So did I,” said Peck.
