The time is near r.t hand when the citizens of GalTney will bo required! to elect a Mayor and Hoard of Alder- : men to watch over the interests, j control the resources, and direct the | energies of the town, for two more | years. The occasion will demand ! that every thing like personal feel ing and personal prejudice or favorit ism shall be laid aside, and that the j best interests of the town shall alone i have the right of way. GalTney lias grown to be a town of i considerable dimensions. I boro are here now all of the agencies that go to make up towns and cities—wealth, intelligence, population, and great and small industries. The revenues of the town are considerable and are growing larger. The expenses, too, are heavy and are continually grow ing heavier. It is all important that our municipal affairs should he managed prudently and wisely, as well as vigorously. The man who is not willing to make some sacrilices of time and per sonal interest for the public good, should not allow himself to become a candidate for a town office. The man also who has not kept up with the tide of progress, who cannot | comprehend the fact that a town of i ll 0(»(» inhabitants must have many tilings which a town of 600 could do j without, who persistently clings to j ideas and methods which belong to a time forever past—such a man also, we say, should remain in the back ground. GalTney has plenty of citizens capable of giving the town a clean, wise, efficientlgovernment. The peo ple should see to it that such men be elected. There is one other thing which is important; that is that there be harmony between the people and the authorities, in other words Glut the municipal government he popular. An unpopular mayor and council however callable and unsellish would be at a great disadvantage. We have heard of four probable candidates for mayor, ail good capa ble men, any one of whom would make a good mayor. Hut we don t want to see as many as four of our citizens run for the office in a general election. In such a case it might be that the one elected would be elected by just a few more than one-fourth of the votes polled. That would he unfortunate. The man elected him self would not appreciate the position half so much as if lie had had a st ron g er assurance of the confidence of tin* people. We sue no way of avoiding such u contingency except by u primary and u primary should be held under the rules that govern primaries in other elections. It will bo the fairest and most satisfactory measure that, could possibly be adopted for both candi dates and voters. NOl I.S AM) COMMENTS. The South Carolina Baptist, pub lished at Greenwood, copied last week an editorial from this pupe and cred ited it to the Lantern. Such care lessness can result in little or no in jury to the Ledger, but it may bear pretty hard on the Lantern. Keep the record straight, brother Gardner, and look where your scissors cut. We do not dare to include (JalTney in the IKt of t lie Mualit r towns, for II lias become too bi}- and ambitious to accept such classlli- eation. In some very important respects It is ahead of the best of us Greenville News. Such words from a discriminating ami disinterested observer are repro duced with grateful appreciation. They should encourage the people of GalTney to stand squarely by their town, and by the men and the enter prises that are bringing it to the front and making it prosperous at home and honorable abroad. ♦ » ♦ ♦ This paper published in its local columns last week an appeal for a family in destitute circumstances, and scarcely hud the ink well dried on the paper, when a hearty and liberal response came from our noble I'ttle twin-sister city of Blacksburg. There is nothing now to divide Gaff ney and Blacksburg in interest ex cept Broad river, and by and by that will be superbly bridged, and the two towns will extend their streets down to ttie banks of the river, and become one and inseparable. Blacks burg with its minerals and its fertili zer factories and Gaffney with its cotton and carpet mills must have room to grow and the most natural thing to do, is to grow towards each other. This is not a dream. There are people now living who will see such a thing come to puss. Citizen Josh Ashley’s bill to re duce the tax on fertilizers from twenty-live to ten cents a ton was finally amended to fifteen cents a ton and passed. We believe this tax ail goes to Clemson College. So there must now lie an extra appropriation to make up the loss to Clemson, as as it will not do to red) the college of ts income. Meanwhile, the farmers will pay from two to three dollars a ton more for their fertilizers Gian they have recently paid and the peo ple will pay the tax to make up the deficiency to Clemson, and all will go “merry as a marriage bell.’’ | The bill to grant a pension of six dol lars a month to every Confederate sol- j (tier who was disabled in the war,either J by wounds or exposure, arid whose income does not exceed per an num, was, we believe, defeated in our Legislature on the groud that it would be difficult at this late day to locate the true causes of disability. Just so; there would be some difficulties, and there might be some mistakes. Better then to keep the $(» and add to it to complete the monthly payment of some rich man’s son or daughter in a state college. In the mean time, the Confederate soldiers were spoken of in the Legislature as “a deserving class of our citizens.” Well, really! that is a compliment which the Confederate soldier, not being accustomed to bandying com pliments, will hardly know how to receive. If the Spartanburg Herald, the Carolina Spartan, and the good peo ple of Spartanburg were charmed with Mr. Wendling’s lecture, we are perfectly willing lor them to remain So. Indeed, we shall not object if they employ him by the year to teach them Southern history and bring them into a closer acquaint- ! unce with the lives at d characters of prominent Southern men. If they will have him to give private lessons on these subjects or to deliver lect ures to select classes, we promise that we shall have not one word to say. Hut when they have a lecture of any kind delivered before the pub lic and reported in a public journal, we shall still claim the right to criti cise it whenever we think proper to rio so. We shall always give s„me sort of reasons for our opinions—a thing which some of those who have so vigorously attacked us have for gotten to do. ♦ ♦ ♦ -• The Boers in the Transvaal are standing like men and every brave and true man in the civilized world is looking on with sympathy and admiration. They have a small country, not more than three times the size of South Carolina, and a population estimated at not more than one million. Vet they have put sixty thousand soldiers in the Ib id, equipped them with the most im proved implements of warfare, and grappled in a death struggle with one of the most powerful nations on the earth. They dispute every inch of ground, and when the Hritish army at one point is able to advance one hundred yards in a day, it is made the subject of a cablegram to London. This stubborn resistance is a serious thing for England. Her prestige and power are trembling in the balance— her empire itself is tottering on its foundations. It is the unexpected that happens. It may turn out af ter all that England's power has been more of a show than a reality. THE FERTILIZER TRUST. I'nniHTH Mn-tiit Grt-t'iuvoixl :tn«l Call | )>on Tlicir llretlirtai to I'iKlit It. At a mass meeting of the fanners of Greenwood lust Saturday, the fol lowing resolutions presented by ex- Senator Gaines were unanimously adopted: Whereas the prices of fertilizers are being advanced arbitrari'y through the influence of a trust and to an extent not justified by cotn- mercial conditions: Resolved, l. That we, the farmers of Greenwood county, S. C., hereby appeal to the farmers of the state and the cotton states to hold meetings at their respective court houses on the first Monday in February, and that they pledge themselves not to pur chase fertilizers at an advance exceed ing 10 per cent, over lust year’s prices. *J. That we regard 10 per cent, ad vance in prices of fertilizers us much as the conditions justify, and we ad vise farmers riot to purchase any fer tilizers at more than 10 per cent, ad vance over last year’s prices. Thai all newspapers are requested to publish these resolutions and help the farmers thwart the designs of the pernicious fertilizer trust.

TILLMAN ON THE STAGE Present A|>|>curunccs Inillentf That There Will he I.ittle Itetiuetion in the Cotton Aereaj'o--ln Sympathy With Hit! Itoers. Other News Items. (Correspondence of The T,odger.> Etta Jam:, Jan. 21.—Our thunks are uue Mrs. G. F. Estes, for a supply of her nice home-raised cabbage, which we so much enjoyed. Now that the Legislature has pass ed a marriage license law we take off our hats and say, thank you, gentle men, you have done a work that ought to have been done fifty years ago, or longer. We feel quite cer tain that if you do nothing to break your record of good works, before the close of the session, your constitu ents will gladly return you for anoth er term. We hope some one will explain whether that great pro-Boer meeting at Washington, 1). (h, last Sabbath night, in which Senator Tillman is reported as being on the stage, was a religious affair or a political mass meeting. We are inclined to the be lief that if the latter, it will not give much strength and comfort to those poor fellows, for whom we have the greatest sympathy, and who ought to be free and independent, if they are capable of self government. If it was only apolitical trick it won’t be considered beyond the sea as a very strong appeal in behalf of the Boers. Neither will it advertise our national capitol as the focal centre of humanitarianism or Chris tian inlluenco. To say the least of it, it is a very poor rebuke to the British govern ment which, nerhaps, will open her eyes and buy up our people. It is a pity those fellows could find no other time Gian the Sajtbalh lo meet and blow off their extra gas and show how much they sympathize with the Boers. One thing we think the Boers will find out, that that crowd will have hut little money and less blood to spend for their indepeddence. That we are in sympathy with the Baers, as we understand their situa tion, we don’t deny, and don’t care who knows it. That that meeting, per se, is a very poor endorsement of the Boer course, we are inclined to think. Had it been on any other day or night than the Sabbath, it might have amounted to something, sincerity, at least. Mrs. Jane Smith, of Hopewell, has moved Lo Gaffney where she expects to make lit r future home. We com mend her and her family to the good people of the city.

Here is another: A man rows ten miles in two and a half hours against the stream, the rate of which is three miles per hour, how long will he be in rowing six miles with the stream? Auditor W. D. Camp, with Mr. Durham, is in this section taking tax returns for this year. The Sarratt Brothers have started their mills on Thlckety. Mr. James Garner is the miller. A report has reached us of the death of one of our most estimable ladies, Mrs. William L. Goudclock. For a long time she lias been in bad health, hut we did not think the end was so near. Another solemn warn ing—“Watch, for ye know not the day nor the hour when the Son of man cometh.” Her family have our heartfelt sympathies in their great loss. From present appearances there will bo hut little reduction in the cotton acreage this year if labor cun be found to work it. People will do as they always have done—work ail they possibly can. We expect a great fulling off in guano bills, for the reason that the farmers can't buy it as largely as heretofore at the prospective price of cotton. Farm labor keeps up every jeur as tlio de mand for it increases. The small grain crop is looking well where sown early. Our thanks are due Mr. James Haines for a supply of Richmond and Manchester, Ya., papers.

It has been demonstrated repeat edly in every state in the Union and in many foreign countries that Cham berlain's Cough Remedy is a certain preventative and cure for croup. It lias become the universal remedy for that disease. M. V. Fisher, of Lib erty, A'. Ya., only repeats what has h i n said around tlie globe when he writes: “I have used Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in mv family fur several years and always with perfect success. Wo believe that It is not only the best cough Remedy, but that it is a sure cure for croup. It bus saved the lives of our children a number of times.” This remedy Is for sale by Cherokee Drug Company. WRITTEN FROM WILLIE. Octuviih TukrH Ihkii*- With The Ledger Con- cernlug School*. (Correr-pondencc of The Ledger.) Wii.i.ii:. Jan. 22.—R. L. Johnson met with the misfortune of getting his barn, together with three cows, and a considerable amount of hay and fodder burned during the holi days. The origin of the lire is un known but is supposed to be incen diary. Messrs. L. F. Wompey and H. A. Green, of Easley, were in this section a few days ago in search of potters to work in their pottery, which they contemplate building near Easley. E. 11. Mason, the expert miner of this section, has gone to Rutherford county, N. C , to prospect for the precious metal. Mrs. D. J. Suddeth and daughters, Miss Marshy and Myrie, have rented out their farm and have gone to Greers. Her daughters will work in the Yictoria Cotton Mills. The editorial department of the Ledger has failed, so far, to convince us of the fact that the .State should abolish her institutions for the higher education of her citizens, or that the United States should abandon the i’hiiippine Islands. We are fearful that the Ledger is going to have a very arduous task to convince the people to his manner of belief in regard to the State institu tions of learning. And as to the Philippine Islands, we have conversed with a great many of the country people in regard to the matter, and we have yet to converse with one who does not favor the government re taining control of the Islands.

Hickory Gkovk, Jan. 2d.—Things t are still moving on in our town and, from general report among people, instead of a town we can say city in a future day, if there is any virtue in wind work. Since my last letter there have been some changes in property and some moving from the country totown.it is often said “to educate our chil dren,” whether they have any or not and, if I am not mistaken, some boys get their education before they hardly get through|the freshman class. There is a great deal of idleness in our m EADLY ,j in Nine Oases Oai of Ten—A Cure Fooiiti at Last. This fearful disease often first appear as a mero scratch, a pimple, or lump ii tall to a tin 1 roast, too small to attract an notice, until, in many cases, the dead! disease is fully developed. Cancer can not bo cured by a surgic operation, because the disease is a virulen poison in the blood, circulating throughout the system, and althoug! tho sore or ulcer—known as the Cancer—may bo cut away, th poison remains in tho blood, and promptly breaks out afresh, wit renewed violence. Tho wonderful success of S. S. S. in curing obstinate, deep-seat^ blood diseases which wore considered incurable, induced a few de spairing sufferers to try it for Cancer, after exhausting tho skill o: town, especially among our tho ph\siciau.-, without a euro.

My feelings may be imagined when the hor rible dlseaso made its appearance on my side. It was a malignant Cancer, eating inwardly in such a way as to cause great alarm. The disease seemed beyond the skill of the doctors, for their treatment did no good whatever, the Cancer growing worse all tho while. Numerous remedies were used for it. but the Cancer grew steadily worse, until it seemed that I was doomed provec newa of her sons and higher education daughters. We are opposed to denominul ional colleges, but we do not ask oGier people to oppose them because we oppose them. \\ bile there are some few of the country people who are opposed lo rdute colleges, the great majority of them are in favor of them. We have heard of no one kicking against our colleges except a few editors, anil it must he remem bered that edi'ors do not always voice the sentiments of the people.
