The afternoon north bound passen
ger train wiien it left Spartanburg
last Wednesday had two couches
comfortably tilled with white people.
At the first stopping place, a solitary
colored woman boarded the forward
coach. Then the conductor an
nounced that the coach belonged ex
clusively to colored passengers and
that the whites must get out, which
they did, leaving the entire coach to
the lone colored woman. The con
ductor. as the crowd was falling out
said, it seemed to us, with jult a lit
tle ring of malicious triumph, “It’s
your own law, gentlemen, and must
be obeyed. I have no choice in the
matter.V He was right, and there
was not a single remonstrance made
against this order.
Now, we were one of the crowd
that had to move, and we relate the
facts as we saw them, V\ e did not
count, but our impression is that
there must have been as many as
twenty people moved out to make
way for this one woman. These had
to do the best tin y could in a coach
already well filled, while so far as we
rode on the train, the negro woman
had an entire first class coach to her
self.
We do not care to comment on this
case at this time, Something like it,
though perhaps in less degree, is hap
pening every day on the great thor
oughfares, because the negroes do
not habitually travel on the roads in
auch numbers as the white people.
We feel like there is a screw loose
somewhere, and that possibly some
highly fastidious person, like Jim
Crow, has cut off his nose to spite his
face. .
NOTES and comments.
• We have received a communication
from Rev. F. C. Hickson dealing with
the dispensary. On account of cir
cumstances over which we had no
control we have been compelled to
omit it from this issue. However, it
will appear either next Tuesday or
Friday.

Rrgau and McKinley have opposite
views of destiny. Bryan believes
with Washington that the destiny of
this republic is in the hands of the
American people. McKinley pro
claims that the American peopie are
in the hands of destiny. It will tax
the powers of an ordinary mind to
understand which is on top, destiny
or the people.
Gen. Walker is expected to arrive
on the north bound vestibule today.
We trust that not only the veterans
but all classes of our people will give
him tlie greeting due to a gallant sol
dier and distinguished citizen. There
should be one thousand people at
Limestone tomorrow to hear him
speak. He will speak in the college
auditorium at about II o’clocs; a. in.

Again a hot wave is sweeping over
the country or rather resting on it, if
a wave ever rests. The two extreme
limits of our Htutc, the mountains
and the sea shore, are sought by
hundreds of people in their (tight
from tli© oppressive heat. The News
and Courier persistently urges its
claim that Charleston is the coolest
jplace in the State, and it almost
every day supports its claim by long
columns of figures. In the mean
while the people of Charleston go to
tin- mountains, while many from the
udddei and upper countries go to
Cburiestcn. This may not he very
logical, hut it is natural, and proba
bly about right.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The Bpartant urg Herald thinks
that. Germany ought to h ud the allied
powers in the war in China. Some
of Us reasons are, that Germany un
derstands the arts of war better than
the other Mtiiuns, and that Ameri
cans are not t ruined to war, and know
little about it, except of the “rough
rider'' kind. It doi s not tell us what
is the mutter with England, Jiuseia,
France and Japan. Wo admit (hut
Americans are somewhat rusty of
lute years in field tactics, not having
hud much practice. But wiiy couldn’t
Gen. Miles, the commander in chief
of our armies, go over und take charge
of matters? He hud considerable
practice on one noted antagonist sev
eral years ago, und lie proved himself
u muster of the art of inflicting both
mental und physical torture. We
vole for General Miles us general
issimo, und if we can’t get that posi
tion for him, then we want him sent
over to take charge of all the prison
ers captured by all of the armies.
'Ihe fact that he was about as far
away from the United btates as he
could get, without Hying to another
planet, would be very gratifying to
some of his unworthy countrymen.
♦ ♦♦♦-
Having been absent from Gaffney
for the past ten davs, we have not
sooner had the opportunity to notice
Mayor Littlejohn’s strictures on our
editorial in regard to town license
laws. It seems that we were mis
taken in regard to names and facts.
Indeed, we learned of our mistake in
these particulars, soon after our arti
cle had gone to press, but as our ar
ticle was a discussion of general prin
ciples in which particular cases were
assumed more as a text than as im
portant facts, we did not think it nec
essary either to correct or to apolo
gize. We do not think that we claim
ed to know anything about the par
ticular cases which the Mayor cited
and discussed. We believe, however,
that what we said about the genera)
principles of town license and the
danger, under certain conditions, of
a town’s pushing it too far, will still
stand. We cannot now recall any
statement made which, on the face,
would provoke such a vigorous as
sault as the Mayor thought proper
to make, and we are sorry that he
raised such a dust over minor and
non-essential matters as to obscure
the main features of our article.

Etta Jane, Aug. 8.—The extremely
warm weather will make the county
campaign an extremely arduous one.
Those who feel an interest in the
graveyard at Salem are r(quested to
meet at 8 a. m. next Tuesday, 14th
inst., and clean it off.
The county candidates are not
stirring around very much. They
expect to see the people at the cam
paign meetir g3.
Wo trust that our people will f ve
Gen. C. J. Walker a good uudienci at
Limestone next Saturday. No one
who hears him will be disappoir ted.
Let the ladies turn out. too.
We regret exceedingly that cir :um-
stanecs over which we had no cc itrol
prevented our attending the ( eeri-
wood reunion of U. C. Veteran » last
week. Interest increases with each
meeting and, although the ranks of
the gray are being tliinnedout by the
scythe of time, the young men and
women are becoming more and more
attached to them and the cause they
represented. From reports the vete
rans had a good time and all went
well As was expected General
Walker was unanimously re-elected
commander.
In behalf of the people of Salem we
thunk Messrs. W. R. and J. L. Web
ber for tho uso of their boat to put
the people across the river to the
communion meeting us well as chil

Virginia during the war.
Rev. J. N. Isom began a protracted
meeting at Mesopotamia last .Satur
day and Rev. Mr. Creech is conduct

There has been some misunder
standing about the opening of the
county campaign. It was not gen
erally known that there would he a
meeting at Ravenna and Timber
Ridge on Monday and Tu-sday as
the official notice did not include
them.
There are several cases of sickness
reported this week.
The people of the Wilkinsvilie sec
tion are particularly anxious for a
physician to locate among them.
A good, paying practice could be
procured at once we believe. The
farmers have begun to realize the fact
that the physicians are not allowed a
fair chance in the battioof life They
are oft'n made the last to get their
hills and they often tail altogether
and have no remedy at all. We have
heard come farmers say that in order
to get a physician handy they would
b " willing to “stand good” for any
I'ilis on tfi.rir farms that u physician
might doubt if they were consulted
Deforehand. Wo know that those
bills s.re : .mrthnes hard to collect
and tIns mates it difficult for a phy
sician to ke< p up his practice.
A-* a p- n-ral thing crops aro not
very good this year Too much wet
v. Stlo v in the spring and too much
dry v.« other in the summer. These
supplemented with the overflow has
iimtie it an especially hard summer to

FAITHFUL WORK."
Environment Has Homethlng to do With
the Hhapealnff of Character.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Abbuhy, Aug. 8.—Is there any
avocation in life that does not call for
honest, earnest work? May we en
gage in any pursuit and expect to be
successful without being in earnest?
Does the farmer or any other laborer,
it makes no difference what his oc
cupation is, expect to succeed who
goes at his work in a half-hearted
and careless way? Those of us who
are blessed with capable minds how
thankful we should be, and how
earnestly we should strive to culti
vate the 'talents which are given
us. God has given to each of us
some talent, and has apportioned us
our work, both mental and physical,
and if we do not that work to the
best of our abilities, He certainly
will bring us to account, for unto
whom much is given much is re
quired. How careful we should be
to utilize every hour of life and not
trifle our precious given minutes in
idle nothingness. Those as teachers
should try in every possible way to
impress their pupils with the duty of
being in earnest, for a duty it is, none
will deny. We should also impress
them with the idea that it is not al
ways those who have the most pleas
ant surroundings that climb the
highest upon the hill of fame. I
sometimes think that humble sur
roundings are a blessing to many of
us, for if we could all sit down on the
lap of luxury we might fold our
hands and say, there is nothing for
me to do.
Environment may, and often does,
have something to do with the
shapening of character, but mainly
that which molds and makes a man
a man and a woman a woman is that
earnestness of purpose, that desire of
the soul to do and to dare and to be
of use in the world.
Napoleon in his youth fighting
poverty, grim and hideous, no doubt
made him more able to stand as he
did on the real battle field.
I dare say the battles he fought
with poverty were not less fierce than
those he fought with cannon and
sword.
The poverty of Charles Dickens
only tended to heighten his ambition
and make him more earnest; it filled
him with tho desire to rise higher
than the little attic in which he of
ten dreamed of better days. And it
was not merely dreaming; for we
know he did climb onward and up
ward until at last he stood head and
shoulder above many of his contem
poraries.
Those of us who are just beginning
life, how earnestly we should strive
to overcome the many difficulties
that would hinder us. And in youth
is the time to begin our work.
Today there are some whose steps
are less sprightly than they once
were, and whose once fair hair now
touched by winter’s snows tells that
evening is almost here. Soon those
will cease their earnest work, if earn
est it has been.
If you are poor, let that not binder
you, because three-fourths of our
business men today were once poor.
Go in at the little end of the horn
and come out at the big end, because
if you go in at the big end and come
out at the little end, you are almost
worthless here.
If a man goes at anything with a
purpose he will succeed. Grant,
once as a pupil in school was told by
his teacher to go home for his mis
conduct. He went home and came
back to school. His teacher said to
him. I told you to go home. Grant
says, I have been, but you see I have
come back.
The farmers are needing rain in
some parts of the country.
Protracted meetings are going
on at Mesopotamia, Giliad and El-
bethel.
The Asbury school is progressing
nicely, with forty pupils on roll. It
is impossible for a teacher to do his
duty if the pupils are not classified.
The health of our community is
very good at this writing.
The chain gang is doing some good
work on tho roads in our section.
We should be very careful what we
say of opr neighbor, because our
worst enemy can be our best friend
and our best friend our worst enemy.

CROP BULLETIN.
Condition of Carolina Crops as Reported
from the Bureau.
Columbia, H. C., August 7.—The
temperature was uniformly high dur
ing the week ending 8 a. in. August
6th, and averaged slightly above the
normal, with a maximum of 98 at
Yamaseee, and a minimum of 02 at
Greenville.
There were medium to light showers
during the first of the week, confined
principally, but not altogether, to
the southeastern and northwestern
portions. The general absence of
rain, the prevalence of drying winds,
and the steady high temperature were
conditions detrimental to growing
vegetation, except cotton, and the
need of rain is again widespread, and
in places urgent, especially for food
and forage crops. Practically all
crops have been laid by.
Old corn is made and cannot be
materially helped or injured by sub
sequent weather conditions; the crop
is much below the average, Young
corn is better and yet very promising,
but will soon stand in need of rain.
Fodder nulling has generally begun
over the eastern counties.
There was a general improvement
in the condition of cotton, especially
in the eastern and western counties,
although rust and shedding are in
creasing, and sea-island continues to
blight. Growth has stopped in some
fields, and the plants are blooming to
the top, while other fields continue to
grow and fruit freely. Cotton is
opening quite generally in the eastern
counties, although picking has not
begun.
Tobacco cutting and curing is
drawing to a close. The late crop
grades well.
Rice is promising and is ripening,
and harvesting will begin next week.
Peas continue to do well, but sor
ghum, sugar cane, sweet potatoes,
and gardens are failing, in places, for
want of moisture. There are large
quantities of peaches ripening, but
many are wormy and rot quickly.
The hay crop will be heavy in places.
IN MEMOB1AN.
Another happy home has been
darkened. On last Sunday morning
the death ang^l visited the home of
Mr. and Mrs. O. A. Reeves and stole
from them their youngest daughter—
the very idol of their hearts. Little
Rosa was sick’ only two days and ail
that loving and tender hands could
doavailed nothing. forGod had claim
ed her as his own, and its little soul
passed sweetly o’er the dark river
and into the gates of the Celestial
City to dwell forever in peace. It
does seem hard to give that sweet
little life up so soon, but it was only
left here for a short time to bo root
ed and then God transplanted it in
the garden above. On Monday she
was laid to rest beside her little sis
ter at Pacolet where with the dead in
Christ she awaits a glorious resurrec
tion.
