Llboral reduction made for large Advertisements. \Y. W. Call, Proprlotor. LAURKNS, S. C, July 2, 1002. Shall tho Town Stop! A quarter of a century ago the larger towns of upper South Carolina were cotton markets and cotton mark ets only. They bought tho farmers' cotton and sold tho farmers supplies. These towns were few, perhaps one to a county. Now dozens of towns, each a oottoa market, havo sprung up and the business has undergono long division. Had Laurons, Greenville and Spartan burg bcon content to remain mere cot ton markets, thoy would have remained small villages. Rut thoy 'iscorned tho noeessity to build factories and built them. Henco, in spito of the growth of towns llko Fountain Inn. Cross Hill, l'aco'.ot, Pelzer and a hundred others, these county towns havo grown rapidly. They have pros pered bocauso thoy have turned to manufacturing. Now the quostlon is, Shall this town stop? Or shall this town build something that will employ people who will buy goods and ront or buy houses, thus giving town property some valueV Occasionally ouo finds a Laurens man of moderate means who reasons thus : "I havo a small mercantllo business which yields me a comfortablo living; I havo a good homo in which Is in vested $.1,000; I can always make a living for my family of four or five and I will not embarrass myself by borrow ing $500 to put iu any stock company." But if the town stagnates and that man dies, that $3,000 homo, which em bodies tho savings of bis life, will soil at $1000 or ^l,1200 and his family will lose two-thirds of what ho has done for them. On *Mo other hahd, In a grow ing town, a home In which $.'1,000 is in vested ought to In constantly and greatly Increasing in value. If this town grows as it should, a Main street lot now worth ten dollar - a front foot should bo worth in ton years at least $20 a front foot* Values of property in Greenville in tho last 15 years have multiplied by five or six. Moreover, a town that Isn't growing is dying; very slowly, but dying. We havo no ico factory. Spartan burg has two. livery growing town has an ico factory. It is too late to build one for the present summer but wo should have it for next. It would give employment to a doz.n or two men and it would pay. Hundreds of ico factories aro paying in the South, many in smaller towns than this, and an ice factory would pay hero. More over, it would save to Laurens business men a tribute that thoy aro payiug to Nowborry, Sparlauburg or some other town that has ico to sell. The (?reut Seed Game. Tho congressman who boasts about sending seed to his constituents forgets to mention that those sood are paid for by tho tax-payers. Sometimes a congressman who hus a farming con stituency begs some oily congressman out of his sluro and 80 Is ablo to dis tribute an c. .--a amount?but tho peo ple pay for the seed just tho same. The object of seed distribution is to assist tho agricultural department in making experiments but this object has long since bacn almost forgotten. Seed distribution is now a grab game which enables a congressman to fool his constituents cheap. For example one congressman brags that he eono $2,000 worth of free seed to his constit uents in a year. Unless every constit uent received ten cents worth, some constituents wore neglectod or depriv ed of their shares In that district aro some 20,000 voters. Consequently the congressman gave to each man tho equivalent of t wo cigars or two glasses of soda water or two pints of goobers or ton wads of chewing gum or a plug of mean tobacco. Meanwhilo, tho money came out of tho pockets of the tax-payers, not the salary of the con gressman. Meanwhilo that congress man and his privato secretary must have spent a total of several weeks seeking the post ofllco addresses of peo ple who controlled a vote or two in the district as proper persons to rocoivc seed, time which bettor mon would have given to more important matters. The truth is that the seed business Is an undemocratic fraud upon and a uul sanco to tho people. Wo ecarcoly think that any voter Is silly enough to vote for a man becauso ho received a fewfreoscod. Nor do we think that those who roceived no seed should ho silly enough to bo influenced by It. Of courso as long as soed are distributed, it is well enough for the congressman to see that a share, is sent to his dis trict but a man small enough to expect to buy n soat in congross or the scnato in this way is small enough to be kept out of congress till ho "loams eomo sen80." Candidates complain that tho crowds are small at the mootings. Thoy have our sympathy but we really cannot blamo tho people When a free show won't draw?porhaps something is wrong with tho show. ? # * Among tho "insults hurled at the intelligence of voters" is tho sugges tion that Congressman Talbert should not canvass tho state of South Carolina for tho governorship whilo congress is in session. Tho same applies to Latl mer and Elliott. s_ *??_ REVEALS A GREAT SECRET. It is often a. Led how such startling cures, that puzzle tho bost physicians, are effected by Dr. King's New Discov ery for Consumption. Here's tho se cret. It outs out tho phlegm and germ - infected mucus, and lets tho llfo-giving oxygen enrich and vitalize the blood. It heals the inflamed, cough-worn throat and lung*.

The Result of Inquiry into Long Life Records. .Miss Grant (ho Oldest White Person in the County- Mr. Curry the Oldest Man?Some Other Examples. The oldost white peoplo in tho county aro: Miss Nancy Grant of Cross Hill, aged, 90, is the oldest woman. J. Franklin Curry, Dials Township, born March 13, 1812, past 90 years old, Is the oldest man. Of thoso who have lived longest in the same house, U, seems the record of Miss Nancy South of Mt. Gallagher, surpasses all the other*. She has been living on the samo floor of the same house since she was born in 1818. Thk Advertiser will therefore bo sent for one year to oach of these without (?<)? t to them. It has been dillicult to Arrivo at a satisfactory decision. Mr Curry, for example, has been living on the samo plantation all his life. That Is longer on ono place than Miss South has lived but Mr. Curry does not say that he has lived all the time in tho same house. However, Mr. Curry is un doubtedly the oldest man reported. Miss Nancy Grant though is much older than be, she having reached the groat nge of 0*6. Next In age to her is Mrs. Bi.muol llrypon of Cross Hill who is 03. She has lived in the same bouse since 1839. Although she is not the oldost woman or has lived 60 long at eno placo as Miss South, it has boen decided to send Tiik Advertiser to her for one year also, as hers is a very remarkable case. The Advertiser will also be eent for ono year to Mrs. McKntght of Tumbling Shoals who was boi n In 1814 and has lived (58 years in one room. The discussion has awakened consid erable interest in tho county and facts of value havo been brought out. One curious thing seems evident and that is that the women live longer than tho men . Two women aro reported older than the oldest man. Among the 18 old pooplo reported from Sullivana township, 18 are women. If anyone can suggest tho explanation of this The Advertiser would bo glad to huve it. Meanwhile, The adverti ser wishos to all of the old people many more years of health and happi ness. It is hoped that some friend in oach of the other townships will 6end in lists of tho old people, liko that of Sullivans published last wcok. Who are the oldest people in Jacks? And Hunters?

LET'S TALK POLITICS. Tho candidacy of William C. Irby, Jr., is announced (or the house of rep resentatives. Mr. Irby is a young man but bo has been at work four or live yours, since bo left Olomson College, teaching in tho county and here. He has plenty of good sense and is very generally and deservedly liked, ne is I tho oldest son of tho lato United States | Senator J. L. M. Irby. G. Lawrence Walker of Greenville] who is a candidate for Controller Gen eral made an admirablo county treas urer and no man over had stronger en dorsements from better men than he has. Mr. Walker would mako an ex cellent Controller. Meanwhile, Mr. Jones of Abbeville is a good man too. TriK AUVKHTISKR knows nothing about those other fellows who aro running for this job. Mr. Sanford Knight is In the raco for Auditor to win and roports that ho will not run are groundless. In tho race for Attorney General Mr. Stevenson pounced on Mr. Guntor at the first meeting. After ono or two meetings it was Mr. Stevenson who j was on the dofensive. Howcvor, neith er man has proved anything discredi about the other. Gunter uppears to be the popular favorite in those parts. Evidently, from the persistent at tacks be makes, Col. Tillman regards] Col. Talbert as the only man In tho| race for Governor besides himself. Cloarly be regards Talbort as tho mo9t j dangorous candidate. Tho Greenville peoplo are of course talking about Ansel. Mr, Ansel is mighty strong in his own country, which is a good sign. Certainly, Hey ward has had ovory-j thing his own way in Dorchester, Col leton and all that rogion. Talbert and Heyward are tho leading candidates! for governor. Ansel comes next. Mr. W. J. Henry, now a member of the board of county commissioners, I was announced in tho Herald lust | weok for supervisor. Ho) is tho fifth man to entor this race. Mr. Henry Is a strong man and is well knowu in tho county. Threo weeks ago THE ADVERTISER expressed the opinion that John Gary Evans could not be elected Senator. Events have hanged the situation. His election is not only possible but bis chances uro good. Tribute to Mrs. Alice ('ratio. Mrs. Alice Crane, wife of J. Hurley I Crane, aged 34 years, died at the home of her father, W. O. Balonttno in Lau 1 rens county May 20, 1032. For more t han a year her healt h hud been declining, und tho last three months of her lifo she suffered more than tongue can toll, but she glorified God by suffering, for she bore it with Christian fortitude and patience. Though she was tenderly watched over and lovingly ministered to in the homo, I God saw lit to remove her to that bet ter home, whore angels will minister instead of the loved ones so sad now in the earth home. She united with Poplar Spring Bap tist churob early in life und lived n con sistent member, until she was trans feree! to tho church triumphant She was a devout Christian though not dem onstrative. She was cheerful in dispo sition, and always manifested an open and unselfish spirit, consequently she had many friends. She was it duvotod wife, and affectionate and loving mot h er, a kind and thoughtful neighbor, and in her death the community loses a truly good woman. She leaves a hus band, two little girls, parents, brothers, sisters und a large circle of friends to | mourn for her. But why weep? She gladly closed her eyes on earth to open them in Heaven. 'Her tolls are past, her work is done And she, is fully blest; She's fought f?ho lighf, the, victory won, And entered into rest. '"Then let our sorrows cease to flow, God has recalled his own, And let our hearts in every woe Still say, 'Thy will be done.' " "May tho grace of our heavenly Father, who doot hall things well sus tain, and comfort the grief stricken hearts in tho homes of those, who loyct} her so dearly." A Fit I END. Brewer ton, S. C.
