NOTES AND COMMENTS. A fine rain fell all over this region last Wednesday. It came on slowly and fell gently for about twelve hours. If the farmers had full control of the supply and the means of applying to the earth, they could not have made a more suitable application both in manner and quantity than was made. It has given new life to the farms and gardens and new hopes to the farmers. Late plantings will now come up and man, horse and mUle will hump themselves. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The whole city of London ran wild and hurrahed all night over a dis patch from South Africa announcing that the Boer General Bothard, with an escort of twenty or thirty men, had been surprised and captured. It looks like our English cousins are not used to much good fortune when they make such a demonstration over so insignificant an event. If they expend all of their hilarious energy now, what will they do when the Boers are all killed or dispersed and no one is left to protest against England’s cruelty and unholy greed? A North Carolina orator thinks the cotton mills of the South will solve the race problem by giving the white population employment in manu facturing while the negroes will be content to produce the raw material. In this way the two races will cease to be competitors and will become mutual helpers. That looks feasible, but when we shall have educated the negro, will he be content to take his place in the cotton field where his ancestors worked a hundred yeaos ago, and spend his life there in pro ducing raw material for the more highly favored whites to manufact ure? ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ A few months ago the local editor of the Ledger announced ui his col umns that the potato bug would not attack potato vines that hau been well mulched. It so happened that we got only half of our potato patch this year covered with leaves, when we were compelled to stop tho haul ing and did not get to it again. The bugs have totally ruined tho half not covered, while up to this ti_e they have not molested to any appreciable extent the rows that were well mulched. The vines are green and vigorous and bid fair to make a good crop. We shall watch them with a good deal of interest from this time forward, and will report results. The potatoes were all planted at the same time. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Tho Greenville News in a beautiful editorial on Memorial Bay, stated that Senator Vest, of Missouri, is now the only Confederate soldier in the United States senate. The News says a good many beauti ful things, and wo sometimes fear that its fondness for beauty exceeds its fondness for truth, and that its ambition to say things well over comes its desire to say them ac curately. If our fears are unfounded, then we must conclude that it was napping or speaking in tne spirit of piophecy when it made the assertion in regard to Senator Vest. Daniel, of Virginia, Morgan and Belt us, of Alabama, Gallery, of Louisiana, Berry, of Arkansas, Mallory and Taliaferro, of Florida, Bacon, of Georgia, and perhaps others whom wo cannot now name, were Confeder ate soldiers, and they are all now in the senate. The celebration of the 12.'>tli anni versary of the Mecklenburg Declara tion of Independence this week in Charlotte has been a grand allair. Thousands and thousands of people from all parts of the Btate were there, and good will, conviviality, and patriotism had full sway. We admire the spirit that keeps alive the memory of that great event. Let our people catch a portion of that spirit ard turn out In full force at Cowpens tomorrow and revive the memory of a more glorious event than any declaration ever made in ■words. Our people owe it to them selves to honor this occasion. Let business stand still (or a day and let all show some appreciation of the sacrifices and glories of the past. A day spent at Cowpens will expand our souls and improve our hearts, and we shall return to business on Monday with fresh energy and more bouyant hopes.

[News and Courier. | The count of tho people in the United States will begin in all parts of the country June 1 and end in the cities two weeks later and in the rest of the country before the close of the month. The people are to be counted at their places of residence, but as many persons and families will be away from their homes during June there is some danger that such per sona w T iIl not be counted. If they are not counted the locality in which they live will be misrepresented to that extent, and in some cases this misrepresentation may be enough to affect the representation in Congress of the State from which they come. Local pride and State pride, there fore, should influence all such ab sentees to take resonable precautions against being omitted from enumera tion in their places of residence. Such omissions are most likely to oc cur in the large cities, where families close their homes and go elsewhere for the summer. Tho occurrance of the Paris Exposition this year is likely to increase the number absent from the country. In a’l eases of contemplated ab sence the bead of the family is re quested by the census office to com municate with the supervisor in the d.strict in which he lives. He is also requested to give information regard ing his answers to the questions which are to be asked with some responsible neighbor who will agree to see that it reaches the enumera tor on his rounds. Such informa tion might better be left as a memo randa in writing, us in that case it is less likely to be overlooked. The questions to which answers are de- sirea apply primarily to the popula tion, but also to all farms and manu facturing establishments. They tire being published from time to time in the press of the country. By taking this trouble the absent citizen will do justice to his locality and his Htate and materially aid the census office in the performance of its duties.

CO MR A DE Mm H. Bel ong, /: ■ '*'7:3, Cuttle K:ti*lii£. Messrs. M. L., L. A. and W. H. Ross have wired off a large porton of their big farm on Cherokee creek and are stocking it with cattle. They atreaTly have between fifty and a hundred head and are adding to their stock daily. In addition to raising they will fatten for market. In raising, they will confine themselves to improved breeds. Wo believe the Messrs. Ross will make a success of their venture and thus inaugurate in Cherokee county a new money making business for which her lands and climate are so well suited. They have plenty of means and exact business habits to back their efforts in this new line and will not tire until they fully demon strate its merit. Second Ifaptist Church. Rev. W. S. B. Ford, of Newberry, arrived Thursday and began a meeting in the Second Baptist church yester day evening at 8 o’clock, and will continue the meeting for some days with services at 8:30 and S p. m. Mr. Ford is well spoken of as a man and a preacher, and we trmt his preaching and stay in Gaffney will be of lasting good to the city and people. “I KNOW PERUNA IS THE BEST CATARRH CURE ON EARTH.” y/1 'ilnih Rough Rider Sergeant Duck Taylor. Sergeant Buck Taylor, one of the famous Rough Riders, is a personal friend of Governor Roosevelt, of New York. He accompanied Governor Roosevelt on his great stumping tour through upper New York state. Ho was promoted through gallantry in tho field during the late war. The Sergeant has the following to say ofPe-rti-ua: “I think there is no better medicine on earth than Pe-ru-na, for catarrh. It lias cured me. It would take a volume to toll you all the good it has doue me. Pe-ru-na is the best ca tarrh cure on earth, and I know, for I have tried nearly all of them. Respectfully, Buck F. Taylor..
