■ j NDTKS AND COMMENTS.
One of Senator Tillman’s main
heads in his Clemson College speech
was “What are we?” The answer to
that question depends largely on
who are we?
♦ ♦ ♦
So far as we have observed the
peach crop in this region promises to
be unusual'y abundant. Indeed the
trees are so full that the peaches
must necessarily bo small, and they
are showing little tendency to shed.
Our apple trees have shed the fruit
badly and so have all the plum trees
we have noticed except the wild
goose and the native varieties.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Se lator Tillman in his speech be
fore the students of Clemson College
said. “True success, in amoral sense,
means to keep your soul free from
splotches, so that your conscience
will not lash you as you toss on your
bed at night.” We should like to
know If this is a mere theory with
Senator Tillman, or does he know it
to be a fact from experience and ob
servation.
The open holes along many of our
streets which were dug a week or
two ago for the telephone poles are a
source of danger to life and limb.
They must be two feet in diameter
and four or five feet deep. Many of
them are open and few of them are
effectually covered. We know
what difficulties the company has
had in procuring poles and controll
ing labor and we also know that these
holes are a menace to the safety of all
passers, especially at night, and th ey
ought to be securely covered.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
Rev. John C. Kilgo is at the front
again. This time he is reported to
have said in a public address, that
the broadest spirit in this country to
day is the business spirit, not the
religious nor the political spirit,—
that God will go into China through
the cotton factory, the railroad, and
the telegraph quicker than through
the prayer-meeting—and a good deal
more to the same purport. His remarks
have been severely criticised in
various quarters, but really he ex-
presi-es the prevailing sentiment of
the country after all.
Tiie State Teachers’ Association
passed a resolution strongly urging
compulsory education. We suppose
the Association believes in doing one
thing at a time or it would also have
urged compulsory morality, econo-
my, gentility, refinement, and gen
eral all-round well being and happi-
v n6't>d. The Association furthermore,
according to the report, recom
mended a summer school for the
legislature. If this is not a freak of
the types or a slip of the reporter, it
''shows that the Association really has
the good of the country at heart.
The rains began to hold up towards
the close of last week and the farm
ers got a move on them. Probably
there was never more work done in
the same period in Cherokee county
than has been done during the past few
days. The farmers have no use for
your eight or ten hour laws. With
them in a pinch a day’s work means
every possible lick that can be
crowded into the time between sun
up and sun-down—fourteen long,
steady, stirring hours. A few more
days of fair weather will work won
ders for the grassy fields of corn and
cotton and by the first of July the
upland farms will generally be in
•good shape again. Of course the
damage done to bottom lands is in
many cases irreparable for this year.
Col. T. B. Crews, the veteran editor
of the Laurensville Herald, is en
riching the columns of his paper with
a series of recollections of Laurens
fifty years ago anff since. The series
has reached the 22n 1 number with
out any sign of abatement or cessa
tion. The whole when completed
will be a most valuable contribution
to local history, and the people of
Laurens should see to it that these
recollections be embodied in a more
permanent form. We notice, too,
that other writers are making valua
ble historical contributions to the
Danger, disease and death follow
neglevt of the bowels. Use DeWitt’s

One night last week about 12
o'clock a young colored man by tho
nnmo of Fred Kiley was found lying
in a road in the upper part of the
city in a seemingly precarious con
dition. lie claimed that his back
was broken ami "took on” in such a
manner that those around him were
led to believe he was suffering
untold agonies.
lie further stated that he had been
waylaid, knocked down, beaten and
robbed of money that he had in his
possession, hut persistently refused
to toll who it was that had handled
him so roughly. Dr. Crawley was
sent for and soon came and proceeded
at once to make an examination of
Riley’s wounds. Kverytiine the Doc
tor touciied him Filey would howl
and yell as though it caused him
excruciating pain. He still refused,
however, to divulge anything that
would lead to a clear understanding
of his case. Dr. Crawley even re
fused to relieve his suiToring(?) un
less he would tell who had assaulted
him, but all to no purpose. Oflicer
Hallman was present and he said he
expected that Riley would die every
minute.
Riley lives on Mr. J. A. Carroll’s
place about two miles above the city,
and he was taken there by two of
his brothers who were present.
Later, it developed that he was sim
ply “playing ’possum” on that event
ful night, and that the money of
which he claimed to have been rob
bed had £bcen invested by him in a
new suit of clothes, and perhaps in
the “chemically pure.” The story
is, that Riley had gone up somewhere
or other to collect some money due
him for working in a monazite mine,
and that some others of his colored
brothers had empowered him to col
lect what was due them from the
same source. Riley collected all the
money, came to town and at once
proceeded to spend it with a lavish
hand for his own personal benefit.
After he had succeeded in ridding
himself of the “filthy lucre”—both
his own and that of the others—he
conceived the idea of having himself
“robbed” in order that he might
escape the wrath of those he had
wronged.
We have not heard of any prose
cutions from Riley’s victims and
presume he is enjoying the situation
immensely. It was good for him,
though, that his "’possuming” was
not suspected at the time he was
found, as he probably would have
been "laid up” awhile, sure enough.
A Fireman’a CToae Call.
"I stuck to my engine, although
every joint ached and every nerve
was lacked with pain,” writes G. W.
Bellamy, a locomotive fireman, of
Burlington, Iowa., “I was weak and
pale, without any appetite and all
run down. As I was about to give
up. I got a bottle of Electric Bitters
and, after taking it, I felt as well as
I ever did in my life.” Weak, sickly,
run down people always gain new life,
strength and vigor from their use.

The Home Magazine says:
Like in everything else, there is a
right and a wrong way to clean a
lamp, and a knowledge of the best
method should be acquired. Lamps
in constant use should be cleaned
and filled every morning. The burn
ers should he washed once a week.
The chimneys should be washed two
or three times a week in warm water
and polished with old cewspapers.
Occasionally all the lamps should be
emptied, well washed outside and
inside in a warm suds of Gold Dust
Washing Powder, then rinsed In
warm water and dried in (he sun. A
pinch of salt or gum of camphor,
added to the oil in lamps, will give
an added brilliancy to the light.

Mr. Potter is fast gaining favor
with our people and winning the es
teem and confidence of the members
of his church. He is an earnest
worker, zealous and consecrated
minister, an eloquent and fluent
speaker, and withal, a typical gentle
man in bis deportment. We feel
sure that he will do good work for
his church.
No Olebratfon.
The consensus of opinions seems to
be that the Fourth of July committee
has watted too long before beginning
preparations for oar annual celebra-
bration and the business men think
there is little chance to have a crowd
here on that day, so the committe
has decided to abandon the proj- c f .
Let us hope for better luck next
time.
