The truth is, times ars as good now as they over were. We are
too prone to find fault with our surroundings. We spend too
much money on foolish things and for those things we might
well do without. The stock carried by (’arroll Carpenter

“What ir a smoker?” That was
the question which agitated the
mindsof a great many of the people of
Gaffney who had received invitations
to attend the smoker and entertain
ment of the employees of the Gaffney
Carpet Manufacturing Company
Wednesday night. But there is no
longer any speculation as to what a
“smoker” is by those who attended.
With one accord all agreed that a
“smoker ’ was a good thing and that,
we ought to have them often. And
no doubt wo will. When The Ledger
reporter arrived at Masonic Hall the
first thing that he discerned through
thecloudof tobacco smoko that as
cended from corn-cob and clay pipes
with cane stems was genial George
Cotton and happy W. G. Lees, each
with a largo wooden box tilled with a
good quality of smoking tobacco,
helping their guests to till their pipes
and furnishing them with matches to
light the same. Every man present
that could smoke had a pipe between
his lips and was puffing for all he was
worth. The ceiling of the big hall
was almost hidden trom view by the
cloud of smoke and to the unitiated
it looked as if the whole building
might have been on tire.
After all had been served Geo. W.
Cotton called the “simvkcr” to order
by presenting in a neat speech Mr. J.
C. Jefferies. Mr. Jefferies in his us
ual impressive manner stated the
object of the “smoker,” which was to
call the citizens together to have a
kind of jollification and to become
better acquainted with each oilier.
Incidentally ho mentioned the fact
tiiat some people would say that it
was an electioneering scheme on the
part of the Carpet Mill to have the
people exempt them from taxation,
but lie declared that such was not the
motive. With this he introduced
Mr. Geo. Geis, who favored the
audience with a beautiful solo. Mr.
Geis possesses an uncommonly good
tenor voice and was roundly applaud
ed. Mr. W. G. Lees was then intro
duced and rendered with capital ef
fect a funny story which brought
clown the house. After a selection by
the orchestra Mr. Geo. W. Cotton
sang a solo. Mr. Cotton has a good
baritone voice and was well received.
Speeches were then made by Messrs.
J. C. Oils, W. S. Hall. Ed H.
DeCamp, J. E. Bierck, L. Baker and
W. G. Lees. At intervals during the
speech-making coffee and sandwiches
were served and music rendered by
the orchestra. At the conclusion of
Mr. Lee’s speech the folio
amble and resoluti
ununirnousl^jMigpHvm^ read and
vole beiniii^^iadoptod, not a single
ast in the negative :
lesolved, that we, the citizens and
tax-payers of the city of Gaffney,
Cherokee county, H. C., having
viewed the disadvantages under which
we labor in our efforts to improve the
condition of our city, increase its
population and its commercial and
manufacturing resources, be it
Resolved, that wo attribute cur
condition and circumstances largely
to the fact that proper and sufficient
inducements are not put forth by the
town authorities, and the Gaffney
Business Men’s Association having
these matters in charge, for the en
couragement of new industries, and
be it
Resolved, that in order to obtain
these much needed results and place
our city in the forward ranks of Pro
gressiveness—we petition our local
and county autlyirities to enact a law
or such laws us shall exempt the
Gaffney Carpet Manufacturing Co.,
and kindred industries from local and
merchantile taxation for the specified
time of five years, dating from time
of incorporation of the same, and
be it
Resolved that a copy of these reso
lutions be presented U The Gaffney
Ledger for publication.
Signed. J. C. Jkfkekies,
Chairman.
Ed II. DeCamp,
Secretary.
After the adoption of the resolu
tions several selections by the orches
tra were rendered during which those
present engaged in pleasant conver
sation and exchange of views on vari
ous subjects. The meeting then ad
journed with loud hurrahs for the
“smoker,” and expressions of hope
that we have many more like it.

who was once u citizen of Gaffney

The question of exempting the
Gaffney Carpet Mill from municipal
taxes for five years was submitted to
the voters of the town yesterday and
decided in favor of exemption by a
vote of 273 to 211. .
This is a handsome and generous
thing that the town has done and
the more so because the Carpet Mill
was already established and would
have paid its taxes without a word of
protest. As an expression of gibe
appreciation our people have for the
Carpet Mill, and as a manifestation
of the liberal and enterprising spirit
of the town this act will be encourag
ing to tho owners of tho mill and
gratifying to every man here who has
the true interests of the town at
heart and who lives for others than
himself.
The people of Gaffney have honored
themselves in paying t his compliment
to tho Carpet Mill, and have adver
tised a broad and generous policy to
the country at large.

The kidneys are responsible for
more sickness, suffering, and deaths
than any oilier organs of the body.
A majority of the ills afflicting
people to-day is traceable to kidney
trouble. It prevades all classes of
society, in all climates, "egardless of
age, sex or condition.
The symptoms of '.idney trouble
are unmistakable, such as rheuma
tism, neuralgia, sleeplessness, pain
or dull ache in the hack, a desire to
urinate often day or night, profuse
or scanty supply.
Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in
urine are signs of clogged kidneys,
causing poisened and germ-tilled
blood. Sometimes the heart acts
hadiy, and tube casts (wasting of the
kidneys) are found in the urine,
which if neglected will result in

ous form of kidney trouble.
