VOTK THK ltOM»s. The people of (latTney will make the greatest mistake in the history o | the town, if through peevishness, Oi j blind .prejudice, or mere indifference, | they stay at home to-morrow and fail j to vote for the further issue of bonds j with which to complete the water works and to establish an electric plant. The money already expended will be virtually lost, and (Jatfney will suffer the shame of failure and become an object of ridicule and de rision to her neighbors. Of course wo all regret the neces- | sily which the emergency forces upon | us. We could wish that the .fIN,000 already appropriated had been sulfi- cient to equip the town with an ade quate system of both water and lights. We could wish that the price of iron piping had not gone up, that the en gineer hud not got sick, that closer calculations had been made, that a hundred and one things had not hap pened, and that a hundred and one tilings had happened. Rut we must take things as we find them and make ihe best of them. We must move for the good of the town, we must sacrifice for the health and comfort of those now living and build for those who are to come after us. It is true that the town is carrying gome heavy burdens, but that is no argument. She will be compelled to carry immeasurably heavier ones in the future, if she refuse to increase only by a little the weight of the present ones. The man who has to carry his firewood on his shoulders from the forest carries heavy loads in order to save time and diminish the number of trips. That is common sense and common prudence. The man of business deprives himself and family of the present enjoyment of bis money in order that his money may make more money for t he fut ure. That is business sense. And every where the thoughtful, provident man cheerfully hears present ills in order that lie may avoid greater ills in the future. The town is but an aggregate of Individuals and is subject to the same business principles—to the same laws of economics—that control individ uals in their private business. Com mon patriotism, as well as common sense, demands that we act for the town us wc act for ourselves. We have recently undetuken to have mir dwelling house painted. We made ns close a calculation as possi ble of the amount of material it would take, and we were aided by the manufacturers themselves. We cal culated almost to an inch the num ber ofVquuros to be covered, and wc bad the manufacturers’ certified state ment that a * gallon would cover so many squares. We calculated it all to a nicety and made no mistake. "We then bought the paints and had sevcul extra gallons thrown in for contingencies. Thus far all is satis factory and works like a charm. Rut by the time wo get on one coat the unwelcome fact devlops that we must have at least one third more paint ami oil than we have bought, and that it will take the painter one third longer to put it on than was expected. We don’t know what is the matter, nor who is to blame. They say the weatherboarding was “thirsty” for l^aint and soaked it in surpris ingly. That may bo so, but there are many boles and surfaces that be- e nne remarkably “thirsty” when a man begins to spend money. We are almost angry. We almost wish that we had not begun to paint. Rut what are we to do? Why, strain a point, buy more paint and have the 1 ous) finished. That is the only sen- tible thing to do. < >ur experience is the experience, in one form or another, of every man in Gaffney. And just now it is the ex perience of the town. To leave the water works unfinished would bo as lidicuiouK—not to say foolish—as it %vould for us to leave our bouse two 1 birds painted. The only sensible thing to do is to Vote the bonds. Vote them early, vote them late, vote them all the time. NOTKS AN I* COMMKNTM. The Wulterboro Rar, inflamed with righteous indignation, rushed forth In n body to demand "who struck J'illy I’utterson?” When the man who did it stepped forth and said, “Here am 1,” they only wanted to tell h>m that ho ought not to have done it. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Order has been restored in Geor gia, and forty-six of the negro rioters are on trial in Savannah. The lead ing negroes of McIntosh county have issued an address to their race ad vising submission to law’ and good behavior, and especially enjoining the women to keep quiet. If the leading negroes would take a little more pains to prevent disturbances, we should have fewer of them, and there would be less cause for com plaint of unfair treatment. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The rooms In the Limestone Col lege dormitory are being rapidly as signed to applicants. Car loads of stylish new furniture are on the way; the steam healing pipes are permea ting every room in the building, while out on the new auditorium Mr. Cooper’s force of brick layers are pil ing brick upon brick with startling rapidity. Everything points to a large and enthusiastic opening of the col lege on the 20th inst. Gaffney will take on new life when a host of pret ty girls assemble at Limestone and throng her churches and grace her streets. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ When a small culprit charged with robbing a hen roost or of stealing a neck tie from a show case is arrested on a magistrate’s warrant he is locked up in jail, pending a prelimi nary hearing. Rut when a man of high standing and of important po litical affiliations robs the state of jfGJ.OOO ho is permitted to board at a fine hotel until all satisfactory pre liminaries can be arranged. So much is duo to the position that a man oc cupies. Then the small culprit is a thief; the other is just a man who “fails to turn over to his successor.” That’s the difference. ♦ ♦ Another hurricane has been charg ing around in the West Indies, and giving some indications of again heading towards the United States coast. Consequently there has boon a good deal of uneasiness and some alarm in our sea coast towns. The threatened danger, however, has not yet materialized, and we hope the rip-roarious visitor will run the rounds of his rampage in other re gions. We know too much for com fort these latter days. Forty years ago a hurricane might have raged in the West Indies a whole week with out disturbing the serenity of any body on this continent. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ General Joe Wheeler has landed in Manilla and lias been assigned to the command of a brigade of troops. We wisli General Wheeler bad staid at home and let McKinley k Co., push their own schemes of conquest. Ife could have well afforded to rest on the laurels gained in bis young man hood in fighting for the fairest land and the noblest people that ever nerved a soldier’s arm or inspired a soldier’s heart. He adds nothing to bis fame now by fighting to crush the very spirit that actuated him and bis dar ing followers in the heroic days of the Confederacy. Ry so doing ho de generates into a mere bloodthirsty soldierof fortune and forfeits the ad miration with which high principle always crowns heroic deeds. The long, dry. hot spell is at last broken, and the rains have come in abundance. The extremes of heat and cold during the year have been greater than ever before recorded. It seems that Nature must have an extremely hot summer to follow an extremely cold winter in order to maintain an average yearly tempera ture and Keep herself properly bal anced. The rains are not too late to do any good, as some croakers will say. They have come in good time for the late corn, and the greater part of the corn crop ,n this section is late. They will also make the pea crop, benefit potatoes, give a chance for turnips, produce a fine hay crop and in fact benefit everything but cotton, which, from u broad stand point, we can afford to have blighted. The country is in pretty fair condi tion after all. Colonel Neal, ex-superintendent of the penitentiary, was arrested last Monday on a warrant charging him with failing to turn over the funds belonging to the penitentiary, to his successor, within thirty days, as re quired by law. He gives bail, of course, and will sutler little or no inconvenience. The maximum pen alty for the offence charged is $1,000 fine and a few month’s imprisonment. When a little clerk in a store fails to turn over to his employer an amount exceeding twenty dollars, he can be indicted and sent to the peni tentiary for embezzlement and ho is branded k both by law and public opin ion as a thief. Rut when a big state officer squanders $11,(MX) of the State’s money, all the learning of the attorney general’s office can make nothing out of it but "a fail ure to turn over to his successor.” There is something radically wrong somewhere.

Tim Tronhlo Willi .\<l wtIInitn. LTIm WImm-I.I There is no business under the sun that can not be bettered and broad ened by judicious advertising. The whole trouble with new advertisers is that they rush into print with no outlined policy, no plan or aim. Their copy is prepared at the last moment, just to fill the space; it isn’t convincing, very seldom contains good and sufficient reason for the buyer’s making a purchase, and altogether has a hit-and-miss style to it that makes it a perfect gamble. Money thus spent is, nine times out of ten, simply wasted, while another advertiser who uses the same medium, but gives some thought to his copy and plans, reaps a harvest that repays all his trouble.

Early cotton has matured, but there is yet ample season to be counter-balanced by the lute plant ing. During the continued dry weather cotton in this community began to open thick and fast. In fields hero and there, as appears, one-third of the crop is ready for picking. The end may prove to be a great deal bet ter than present expectation. One Roland Tate, colored, is in trouble here charged with changing the initials on a road tax receipt. Not education but the want of it which often makes the “way of the transgressor hard.” Mrs. Rebecca Littlejohn is tci build a bouse on her plantation near Web ster.

While Claude brings the mail and Mr. Henry Tate delivers it, tho only inconvenience attached is by the way it is senl here from Jonesville. Never lias there been more activity among farmers during tho “laying hy” time as this season inculcates. The discouraging outlook of crops accelerates tho activity which is another evidence that, “It is an ill wind which blows no one any good.” Mr. I). Littlejohn passed Webster one day lust week with a new eight horse engine. In a few years hence each plantation will gin its own cot ton ami every town of five hundred inhabitants will own a cotton mill. The next General Assembly would do commendable legislation by en acting a compulsory educational law. A majority of people, by action, think that all the blessings of a public school come consolidated in a nut shell. A sad mistake. Lkixjkh Rkaiikk. I.IkIiI or DurkiiuN*; \\ <-t or Dry. Tomorrow’s expression of the voice of the people will decide the question of light or darkness, water or no water, for a large number of our citizens. It, is tho desire of the Town Council amt Roard of Fubilc Works to benefit as many citizens of the town us possible, and we earnestly hope that personal feeNng and preju dice against any person or company may bo laid aside, and that every citi zen voter will go to the polls and east his huilot in favor of an increase of bonds for the purpose as set forth in the petition. It does not increase tuxes more than is being collected now, and certainly will be of great benefit and protection to a large num ber of deserving citizens of the town. We have no axe lo grind in this matter, nor do wo expect to reap any profit directly or indirectly from the measure, but simply want to do us much good for us many people as is possible with the amount asked for in the petition, and to aid others to get the benefit of light and water that we and others more fotrunutcly situated have already. Don’t let us take a step backward tor some imagined grievance, life is too short to fritter away, in trying to spite someone by being obstinate and revengeful, especially at a cost to so many who would possibly be wrong fully deprived of the benefits sought by your failing to lay aside your own petty grievance, and voting with your fellow men for progress and for what is best for the largest number of people, forget self and look to the helping of your friends and neigh bors and I am confident that you will feel better to know that you live for something bettor than to consider your personal feelings above all else. Truly we would have a deplorable state of affairs if every one was wholly for self, and I am of the opinion that such a one would soon have nothing but self.

Promptly Reaches the Seat ot all Blood Diseases and Cures the Worst Cases. the the and wait and like In every test made S. S. 8. easily demonstrates its superiority over other blood remedies. It matters not how ob stinate the case, nor what other treat ment or remedies have failed, 8. S. 8. always promptly reaches and cures any disease w here the blood is in any way involved. Everyone who has had experience with blood diseases knows that there are no ail ments or troubles so obstinate and difficult to cure. Very few remedies claim to cure such real, deep-seated blood diseases as 8. 8. 8. cures, and none can offer such incontrovertible evidenceof merit. 8 8. S. is not merely a tonip it is a cure! Itgoesdovvn to the very seat of all blood diseases, and gets at the foundation of tho very worst cases, and routs the poison from the system. 11 does not, like other remedies, dry up tho poison and hide it from view temporarily, only to break forth again more violently than ever; 8. 8. 8. forces out every trace of taint, and rids the system of it forever. 1 Mrs. i \\.

I was covered with sores and ulcers from head to foot, and in my great extremity I prayed to die. Several prominent physicians treated me, but all to no purpose.
