A 1’OLLTRY LAW. The House of Representatives last week passed a bill introduced by Mr. Kibler extending the provisions of the stocK law to poultry. This was eminently wise and just. Such a law has long been needed. Unfortu' nately, however, before the bill passed, it was so amended as to ex empt chickens and apply only to ducks, geese, turkeys, and guineas. This amendment deprives the bill of more than three-fourths of its merit, and why such an amendment should have been offered and ac cepted it is difficult to see. We can account for it only on the hypothesis of that compromising spirit which belongs to the average legislator who is afraid to take any decided and ef fectual step lest he make himself un popular with some voters and yet feels that he must show his impor tance by advocating and voting for something. The raising of geese and ducks in this part of the country has about been abandoned. tSome few farmers who are prepared to take care of them and to give them ample range, continue to raise guineas, and per haps one in a dozen will raise every year a flock of turkeys, but every body in the country and most of the residents of towns keep chickens and raise as many of them as they can. These chickens are more destruct ive than all the other species com bined. They will eat about every thing except cotton and okra, and a dozen hens led by a consequential rooster will work more mischief to a garden or truck patch than a horse or cow. Of course if the garden, truck patch, and chickens all belong to the same man, no one else has the right to complain. But in towns and thickly populated communities, it is often a neighbor’s chickens that do the mischief, and if the injured man protests too vigorously or adopts de cided measures to protect himself against their depredations, he is con sidered a selfish, mean and little- minded man by his neighbors who cannot see that a few chickens roam* ing at pleasure can possibly do any barm to anybody. There are numbers of people living in the suburbs of Gaffney and other towns, who are compelled to plant their lots in such crops as will be least tempting to their neighbor’s chickens and to refrain from planting many things which they would like to raise because they would be de stroyed by the same. The colored people especially are proverbially fond of chickens, and it seems never to have occurred to them that a chicken ought not to make its own living in the daytime and come home at night to roost. We know some whose chickens prey upon every lot within a radius of a quarter of a mile of their home, while their own ers make no effort whatever to re strain them. We need a sweeping law on this subject, and such a law would be eminently fair and just. No man should own any animal which he can not take care of, whether it be a horse, hog. cow, or chicken. MANL'FACTIKK AND PRODUCTION. Tne time is coming when capital will have to seek other lines of in vestment in the South than those of manufacture, because manufacture cannot outstrip production in the race for wealtn. For the last twenty-five years man ufacture has rapidly increased and production has comparatively di minished. We believe the equili brium has been reached if not sur passed. What then is to be done? Why, capital must turn its attention to production. It rnu^t encourage agriculture and in order to do that it must invest in agricultural enter prises. Monty invested in farming directed by the energy and business -sagacity characterriatic of mill man agement would bring big profits to the investors and vastly increase the products of the fields, and hence the material resources of the country. It is true that the possession of vast areas of land by incorporations is abhorrent to our ideas of demo cratic government. Yet we are hastening towards trusts and com bination in all other lines of busi ness, and the legitimate outcome will be that the lands, sooner or later, will be owned and managed in the same way. Such a consummation will restore many of the features of feudalism, but let them be restored. This age has its fixed ideals, and it will work them out in spite of all protest or remonstrance. NOTH-S AND COMMENTS. Safe-crackers, burglars, and rob bers are on a boom while other lines of business are depressed. Some three or four postoffices in the small towns of the Piedmont region have been robbed and many stores and safes have been broken open and de spoiled of goods and money. Thus far, fortunately the robbers have not found enough booty to compensate them for their work and risk, but it stands every one in hand to exercise precaution in regard to the s>afety of whatever valuables he may possess. There is a sameness in the methods of these scoundrels, which indicates that there are several regularly or ganized bands that are doing busi ness on systematic and scientific principles. It is only a question of a little time when the skill and en terprise of these knights of the high ways will be turned to the account of internal improvements. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The financial embarrassment of the Gaffney Carpet Mil is a matter of surprise and sincere regret to a vast majority of our citizens. A year ago the mill declared a semi-annual dividend of 5 percent, and reported if we remember correctly, a surplus of 112,000. This was considered a first rate showing for an enterprise which had been in operation only for a short time on a capital of 190,000. How the mill has fallen so far behind in the short space of one year is a mystery. In the absence of any avowed reason it is the impression that the prolonged absence of President Bierck on ac count of afflictions in bis family will account in a large measure for the trouole. All hope and believe that the embarrassment will be but tem porary and that the mill will soon start again on a more solid founda tion than before. The appointment of Mr. H. D. Wheat as temporary receiver is an assurance that all will be done that strict business princi ples will justify to put the mill again into successful operation. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Prevailing conditions seem to be favorable to the production of an unusual number Of house-breakings, robberies, and petty thefts. Stores, postoffices, and private bouses in various parts of the State have been robbed, and in many cases the rob bers have got away with their booty without detection. In Laurens coun ty it is thought that there is a regu larly organized band operating sys tematically and energetically. There is a considerable class of people who have no regular employment and who aim to get a livicg with the least pos sible amount of exertion. When times are flush aud jobs are plenti ful, these manage to pick up a living by working a day now and then, or by getting little temporary jobs about towns and picking up extra quarters which the owners dispense with a free band. But when money is tight and men of means begin to reaiize the necessity of economizing, these loafers begin to be pinched. Then comes the temptation to theft and robbery. No man should now keep any considerable amount of money about bis bouse or person. The banks are the places to keep money and even merchants who have iron safes, should deposit the bulk of their money in the bank every night. The Bent Edited Puper In the State. Marion, 8. C..

Gaffney house has been moved from Granard street to the Macorason lot on Logan street to make room for the big business houses that will be built on Granard street next spring. The county pension board was in session Friday. We learn a dozen or more names were added to the list. Our pension board is a careful and conscientious one and have done their work faithfully. We learn that Wm. Vaughn, son of the late Joseph Vaughn, who was killed bv one Floyd near Grindal Shoals, Union county, some weeks ago. was arrested and placed in jail at Union last Friday charged with being accessary to the murder of his father. The mayor had a white man before him one morning the last of the week for some trivial offence and fined him. But during the hearing it^as brought out that the man had also been beat ing his wife. Now wife beating in this State is a serious offence and is punished by fine, imprisonment and disfranchisement, and the full pen alty of the law should be meted out to every wretch who is guilty of this brutal and grave offence. Wiliam A Edwards and Frank C. Walter have associated themselves in business under the firm name of Ed wards and Walter, for the practice of architecture with headquarters in Columbia. S. C Mr. Edwards is well known in Gaffney where he mar ried his accomplished wife, nee Miss Pearl Brown, whose long stay in Gaffney so pleasantly identified her with our people. We wish the new firm the success it so richly merits. The big auction sale conducted by Carroll k. Carpenter in the store for merly occupied by J. C. Lipscomb <fc Bn., came to a temporary close Sat urday night, the auctioneer, Mr. R. E. Foster, who by the way has made many friends in Gaffney, having a previous engagement to fill. He will return to the city in time to beg n the auction next Friday at 10:30. There will be about $2,500 of goods sacri ficed at this sale. The unusually low prices at which the goods went last week insures a large crowd Friday and Saturday, bo;h day and night Those who were not fortunate enough to be at last week’s sale should cer tainly take advantage -of this oppor tunity. Burglars in Gaffney. Saturday night someone broke into the Victor Roller Mill aud stole small quantity of flour and corn meal. The thieves were tracked a short dis tance, but the track was soon lost. Before night Sunday the officers thought they had a clue, a warrant was sworn out and yesterday morning shortly after midnight acting Deputy Sheriff Sparks arrested Si Smith and his son, Smith, colored, at their home near Lawo, about five miles below the city, and searched their bouse, but could fiud no trace of the flour or meal, but found a large roll of waterproof cloth. He brought the prisoners and cloth and placed them In jail. The cloth proved to be a roll stolen from J. N. Lipscomb <& Co.’s store Saturday. The Smiths will be held to answer for the cloth with a strong probability that later developments will connect them with the burglary. To Any Black Man. I challenge any black man, land lord or renter, of Cherokee and Spar tanburg counties, in a contest as to who can make the most cotton on one acre and the most corn on one acre of land in 1902 On an acre of upland for corn; I have no bottoms. The only requirements are that the acres of land, both for corn and cotton, be contigous, and that the contestants have it properly measured and tell the kind and how much fertilizer they use, and be a subscriber of ooe of their county papers. My object for this is to try to get the colored farmers to make some scieutific Dis coveries along the agricultural liue and see if we cau’t learn to support an ordinary family in a few years on ten acres of land. W. G. Pattersom, Jan. 21, 1902. Trough, P. O., tt. C. P. 8.—We would be thankful for any advice that might be given. w. g. p. Service at the Jail Rev. R. C. Campbell, colored, pas tor of Dunton Chapel, assisted by Pre siding Elder Hickson, held an inter esting and appropriate service in the county jail Sunday afternoon. The sermon by Mr. Campbell was good and Eider Hickson followed him with a touching talk. These services in the jail show that the unfortunates are not forgotten and are appreciated and enjoyed by the prisoners. A Coining Marriage. Cards are out announcing the com ing marriage of Miss Emma Bryant, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Bry ant, to Mr. Claude Coffey, both of this city. The marriage will be on February 5 r h, at (» o’clock p. m. Stimulating Contriliutiomi. Mis. Von Blumer—The minister preached the most touching sermon I ever heard.
