From all sections of the Piedmont
the news comes that the farmers are
sowing largely of wheat. The Spar
tan, after careful Investigation, as
sorts that at least .10 percent, more
wheat has been sown in Spartanburg
county, than was sown last year.
We doubt not, from all we have
heard, that the same has been done
in Cherokee. This is a long step to
wards true independence. Let that
roller mill go up now in Caffney.
It’s going to be needed.

At last there has been an engage
ment between the iiritish and the
Poors, which rises to something like
the dignity of a modern battle. It
took place at Modder river, and while
the
ritifh seem to have got the
better of the fight, they paid dearly
for their advantage. The Hoers fire

The Fifty-Sixth Congress has con-
voned, and Roberts, the polygamist,
is the drawing card. In their out
ward manifestations, there is not
much difference between notoriety
and fame, and Roberts is certainly
enjoying the distinction which ac
companies one or the- other. The in
dications are that he will not be per
mitted to take his seat, for, although
no doubt one-half of our Congress
men are as immoral as he, they dare
not publicly endorse polygamy. A
petition against the seating of Rob
erts is before the house, which, it is
said, contains 7,000,UOO of names.

The Greenville News and the Co
lumbia State are having a lively
wrangle over the question as to
which one of these wide awake and
far-seeing journals first advocated
the repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on
State bank issues. The News after
giving the State the benefit of an
overllow from its abundant vocabu
lary, shows to its own complete sat-
isfaction, that it habitually did this
thing, years and years, before the
State was horn. This ought to set
tle the question, without in the least
n fleeting on the judgment and wis
dom of the State. We often think
that we are saying and doing things
fur the first time, and learn after- !
wards that they were said and done
before we were born. ‘‘There is no
new thing under the sun.”
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Greenville’s afternoon paper, The
LaUy Times, has passed into the'
hands of Messrs. Foster Pros., while
the plant has been sold to Messrs.
Pomar Pros. The latter firm do the
mechanical work fur the former. The I
Times is a good afternoon paper.
However it bears too much of a met
ropolitan tlavor to be a success in a
town the size of Greenville. If the
.-Messrs. Foster Pros will discard the
cumbersome and non-revenue produ
cing press dispatches and make the
paper a purely local paper they will
probably succeed. Put Greenville is
too near the sizj of Gaffney to sup
port a metropolitan daily. Green- j
ville is a good town, and the third ]
largest in he state, but there is not |
enough of t er to successfully put on
metropolitan airs yet along the news
paper iine.
National parks are now having a
run. The people of Asheville and
vicinity are moving for one in West
ern North Carolina, and the city of
Atlanta would like to have one along
with everything else. Western North
Carolina no doubt can furnish ro
mantic scenery to begin with, but
if it can furnish any dissociations
that should be connected with a
national park, we don’t know what
they are. The local events of that
part of the country which might be
of historical interest, have hardly
been of more importance that battles
between moonshiners and revenue
officers, and the memory of these
might not be very inspiring to future
generations. Atlanta has some as
sociations but nothing but red hills
for scenery. If there is to be an
other national park in the south,
Cowpens, and Cowpens alone, will
furnish all the requisite conditions.
♦ ♦ ♦■ ♦
The session of the Baptist Conven
tion recently assembled here was be
yond all doubt the most harmonious
session enjoyed by that body in the
last ten years. This, too, in spite of
the fact that there were questions to
be settled which for a long time hud
been creating agitation and bitter
dissention. We are inclined to be
lieve that the splendid open-handed,
open-hearted hospitality tendered the
delegates by the people of Gaffney
had a great deal to do in calming
their prejudices and animosities, if
they have any. and putting them in
proper mood to exercise mutual for
bearance and brotherly love. Pe
this as it may, it is a fact that the
members of the Convention were in a
remarkably good humor, all the
time they were here, and since they
have left, many of them have kept
ringing the praises of Gaffney, in the
papers, in private letters, in oral
messages, and in every other known
mode of utterance. Gaffney, herself,
has reaped great benefit from the
Convention—a benefit, which at this
time cannot be measured. Besides
extending her acquaintance and ad
vertising her resources, stie has felt
the unifying, stimulating influence
among her own people, This in
fluence is wonderful, when the peo
ple of a whole town come together
and work together for a common ob
ject only for a few days, regardless
in a great measure as to what that
object may be. The whole town is
now ready to move forward in a more
liberal and generous spirit towards
still higher accomplishments.
The correspondent of the Green
ville News from the Convention
wrote to that paper the following:
“A distinguished educator said that
unless the Baptists of South Caro
lina and the friends of the Green-
! i m ti: o:>-g ruliy to iis ?uu-
n.u'l !>'. , jniribut ing to its equip
ment ;u* •oniirg to advanced modern
idea*, as has been done and is now
being done in the ease of Limestone,
they will see their college lay behind
in the race for patronage. The citi
zens of Gaffney are rallying to the
aid of the hoard of trustees of Lime
stone, and the people of Greenville
would do well to profit by their ex
ample. Another brother says:
‘‘Limestone is destined to be the
greatest college in the South for
girls.” Another savs: ‘‘You fel-
lows will have to houl down your flag
in Greenville, so far as female educa
tion is concerned.”
We are not exactly in sympathy
with these assertions and predictions
made to the correspondent. We are
sure that the Limestone people are
not attempting to run against Green
ville nor to throw a straw in the
way of their progress. Limestone is
looking quietly but ambitiously af
ter her own interests, and if by her
example, she may impart some en
thusiasm to Greenville, it will be all
the better. Last summer they had
something like indignation meetings
over in Greenville in which they ac
cused Limestone of some very ugly
things, and the people of Gaffney of
inducing the State Convention to
come here, solely for the sake of
booming L’mestone and demolishing
the Greenville Female College. We
wonder what they think now that
the Convention has come hero and
has gone. Limestone stands squarely
on its merits and will never ask any
body to boom it.

We present as aftermath the fol

Rev. C. 0. Brown: The Gaffney

Rev. W. I). Moorer: We had a

Dr. W. D. Rice: Interest in the
business of tiie Convention was con
servative and sustained ail the way

Rev. T. II. Plemmons: The Con
vention reached high-water mark.
The spirit of the meeting was very

Giles Lipscomb had a corn shuck

time, as usual.
The Rev. L. A. Williams, of Green

Greenwood, but now of Gaffney,
went to tiie country today to visit
Giles Lipscomb and friends. They
were to preach at Concord, but did

A SURE CURE FOR CROUP
Twenty-live YearV Constant t'se Williou
u 1‘uiliire.
The first indication of croup is
hoarseness, and in a child subject to
that disease it may he taken as a sure
sign of the approach of an attack.
Following this hoarseness is a pecu
liar rough cough. If Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy is given as soon as
the child becomes hoarse, or even
after the croup cough appears, it will
prevent the attack. It is used in
many thousands of homes in this
broad land and never disappoints the
anxious mothers. We have yet to
learn of a single instance in which it
bus not proved effectual. No other

Prof. Gordon B. Moore: The com
munity showed the typical South
Carolina hospitality. 1 think the
spirit of the meeting was on a level
with any we have hail in recent years.
I was royally entertained at Mr. Mor
gan’s.
Rev. 1. W. Wingo: The Conven
tion at Gaffney in many respects was
one of the most remarkable I have
attended. There was occasion given
for God’s people to give evidence of
their genuineness, and they stood
the test most nobly.
Rev. J. D. Huggins: My expe
rience and observation leads me to
conclude that this has been one of
our very best meetings, possibly the
best I have attended, and 1 have
missed only one (188B) since it was in
Darlington in ’82.
President E. Y. Mullins: I was
impressed with the very cordial hos
pitality of the Gaffney people and
with the deep and impressive mis
sionary spirit in the Convention. In
the Convention in Greenville four
years ago an I again at the Gaffney
meeting I was particularly struck
with the tender spiritual power, the
desire for harmony and peace, and
the consecration of effort chiefly on
the great things of the kingdom.
Rev. T. P. Lide : The meeting of
the Convention at Gaffney was a
most gratifying and delightful one.
I have been almost a regular attend
ant for the past thirty years, but do
not recall a more delightful and sat
isfactory meeting. Tiie attendance
was good ; the spirit was excellent;
the hospitality was abundant; the re
ports of out Boards were encourag
ing. 1 believe tliut our brethren re
turn to their work with renewed zeal
and with a hopefulness that augurs
well for the future.
Dr. A. C. Wilkins: The good peo
ple of Gaffney covered themselves
with glory in caring for their fortu
nate guests Every delegate had,
according to his testimony, the best
home. The spirit and work of the
Convention was number one—better
than some of us feared, in the opin
ion of some of the few present .Sat

change tiie time for meeting next
