Out of a Job.
An Individual who was appointed by
Mr. MoKlnloy collector of Internal
revenue for tbid stato has failed of
confirmation because bo was Impli
cated in tho lynching of a negro or
two. Ho thinks bo has been badly
treated. But as tho job was obtained
for him under tho prodigiously false
pretense that he was a gold Democrat,
lie has no ground tocompluin. Besides,
ho received a lot of glory at the time
on account of his part in tho lynching
Tlmo was when being a gold Democrat
was a far moro serious political crime
in this state than being a lyncher and
it must bo conceded that never was
there a soul less guilty of tho former
than was this thoroughly unconfirmed
collector. Of course he may have be
come a gold Domocrat aftor tho hope of
Republican favor loomed up.
**?
Its' Object.
Tho object of tho campaign meeting
on the 18th is to expose tho candidates
to the careful Inspection of tho voter.
Tho lights will bo turned on these fel
lows who want office that day. Lot the
voters come and oxamino G?nter,
Boyd, Stevenson, Gantt, Wilson and
the huge crowd who aro running for
railroad commissioner. THE Adver
tiser would liko to seo 5,000 voters in
Laurons on tho IStb and there is no
reason why such a crowd should not
come. Let them come and have some
fun. Lot so many come that tho candi
dates will get scared.

Why Not Make Bricks.'
An Abboville paper notes that an
Abbeville brick-maker has orders
ahead for ten millions of bricks. Mean
while, Laurons buys brick from Green
wood. Thoro Is plenty of good clay
convenient to railways in Laurens. A
capital of four or five thousand dollars
would be ample to establish a briok
making plant of largo capacity. There
is a good, comfortttblo safe, HviDg In
the business and a chance to accumu
late a competency. Wood Is choap In
Laurens. A man who will work is all
that is needed.
Everybody Come.,
People who wish to vote this year
for the be3t men, and everybody 60
wishes, must .attend the campaign
meeting on the 18th and lind out who
the best men are. Ansel, Talbert,
Heyward, Dr. Tlmmorman and Col.
Tlllman aro men worth hearing.
_v;_
WILL BE OF VALUE.
Tho Soil Survey In Laurens aud Re
sults Expected.
The soil survey boing conduct od in
tho upper part of the county by tho
United States Agricultural* Depart
ment will be of grout value to tho
farmers and land-owners. Tho survey
is made at tho Instance of and through
the Influence brought, to hear on the
department by Congressman Johnson.
Such surveys have been made in other
parts of the country by tho depart
ment but this is tho llrst in this sec
tion.
When tho survey Iscompletod a pam
phlet will be issued giving the result of
tho analyst's and investigations. A map
of tho territory surveyed win also bo
published. These will be distributed
free. From theso the land-owner will
be ablo to see what crops aro best
adapted to his hind, bow t hey arc best
cultivated and what fertilizers are
host adapted to t he soils. Thus the in
telligent farmer will have a scientific
basis to work upon and ought to be
ablo to produce the largest possible
crops because he will know exactly
what to plant and where to plant it.
Moreover, he will know wherein his
soils aro deficient and how to bring
them up.
The survey will also be of value as an
advertisement. The intending settler
will be able to learn from the publica
tions what he may expect to Arid in
this section and what he may expect to
realize from the land he buys.

I NEWS FROM POSTERITY. |
Wo begin in th'.s Issue a series of
Historical Papon? by tho long-legged,
freckled faced, rod headed, pug nosed,
pen pushing Napoleon, Zimrl /.?<?'.<.,
author of "Tho Tangled Tale of tho
Troublesome Kangaroo", "How To
See Laurens by Moonlight", "Why Ice
is Not Made in Laurens", "How To
Kat Three Meals A Day", etc. These
papers were originally published in
1099 by The Imperial Pi'bllsjlng Com
pany, out lining secured all r'ghts to
them we offer them to our readt rs as u
compilation of fact and fancy, and not
as a prediction or forecasts. Remem
ber, they are printed as they were
originally written for tho "Imperial
Weekly Digest," published by tho
aforesaid company.
Tho Filipino Pick artist is a won
der. As is well known a large force of
them aro making tho oxcavatlons for
tho new passenger station of the In?
tcrnatlonal Aerial Navigation Com
pany at the corner of Tillman Avenue
and Talbert Boulevard. About three
o'clock yesterday afternoon one of
these skilled artisans unearthod a ou
rlous shaped thing, mado of an an
cient substance called "iron." This
discovery by tho Filipino occasioned
very little interest, except to the stu
dents of the McSwooney Institute of
Ancient History, ospocially to those in
the department of Archaeology. Tho
learned Professor of tho Chair of In
dustrial Freaks mado a visit to the
scone oarly af'.er it becamo known?
and the news soon spread over the
Voiceless-Wireless Telephone?, and
upon being Interviewed by a Reportor
for The Digest ho stated a* hl9 opin
ion that this "thing" wps what was
known in the year 1902 as a railroad
engine, and that it, must have belonged
to tho old Charleston and Wostern
Carolina Rail Road, but this is denied
by some as being mere speculation.
Tho prevalent opinion is that this
engine was usod to haul the party of
men callinsr themselves political Cam
paigners, which we are told by the his
torian Hilly Bozozo, of the Coco-Co'a
age, was an aggregation of office seek
ers, peregrinating tho old common
wealth of South Carolina, chasing the
sovereign voter, in order that thoy
might land in odico and handle tho
ribbons of government. This engine
broke down doubtless while being used
in this busluess. His Dignity, the
Professor, after venturing tho above
statement, then dissertated at length
on the political transformation of this
country. He is of the opinion that tho
establishment of our present form of
government, which is monarchlal, was
duo to the Trust, which he says was a
combination of men effected for the
betterment of the masses. The learned
professor consontcd to furnish us with
an article for our next issue on the
"Tho People of Laurens In 1902." He
has made a study of this subject and no
doubt it will be Interestingly treatod.
It is a well known fact that our an
cestors who lived in this Principality,
which was formerly the town of Lau
rens, and curiously laid off around a
square, were a very peculiar people.
Their transportation facilities, be it
remembered that they lived in tho
Steam Ago, were s*rango creations to
we moderns. And the peaceful reign
of our beloved Prince Benjamin VI.
who is the present head of tho House
of Tillmanory, and whose full name is
Talbert - Benjamin - Timmerman - Hey
anwardse), Is a striking contrast to tho
disorderly times in South Carolina in
the early part of this century, before
this burg was made the principality of
Laurentiark. It is known that the
people In that day wore very patient
and very thrifty, and that all pract
ical politicians had to be patented,
and that nono of them carried pistols
longer than 21 inches and weighing
less than :$ pounds. Politicians were
regular human boings though it is
hard to believe it in this age of Roy
alty. And in the year of 1902 there
wero two parties?the * Ins" and the
"Outs" that is, thoso who were in of
fllce and thosa who wero out of office.
It Is said that they sometimes fought
with their fists, tho' more often with
words. That they were an ingenious
set is beyond dispute. That they were
in politics, wns for tho roa?on that
tboro was money in it.
Monoy then wa3 a metallic sub
stance, round in shape, white In color,
called in one sense "fllthy lucre" nnd
in another "the dollar", and stamped
by tho government with the head of a
maid who dro?sod her hair with leaves.
This was only on ono side. On the
roversesldo was a picture of an animal,
'ong sinoe oxtlnct, called tho American
Eagle, which was an expansionlng
beast, and because of whoso rapactous
noss, wo aro to-day indebted for the
presence in our community of the
above mrntipqed Filipino artisan.
It Is thought lhat this money talked,
but It is nor. known In what language,
but certain it is that some of it used
the megaphone, not the telephone of
1002. This was tho moving factor in
politics in those times, and is it not
strange contrast with our Pater
nalism??wo draw just what we want
out of the Royal Exchequer, and when
over we please. In tho mattor of
transportation facilities we are some
what in advance of our ancestors of
1902. We can go to the Empire of
OHntoniana either via tho Pneumatic
Subway, or tho International Aerial
Automobile, whereas in that olden
time peoplo had to make tho trip of
nine miles via the dirt road, tho rail
road or the Kloctrio road. This brings
us round again to tho new passenger
station of the Aerial Company. Tnjj?
structure will be five hundred feet tall,
two hundred wide, and three hundred
foet long, ft will contain twooy-five
stories tho uppermost one to bo used
for the accomodation of Laurentiark
Clintoniana freight and paesongoF
trallic. Ir, will bo built by the use of
Liquid Air nnd tho Filipino artisan
within ten months. It will take this
great length of time because it is de
eirod to embellish the interior with
fac-amiles of the horse, the railroad
engine, tho electric car, the Temple of
Justice, and the patented politician,
making it a kind of Hall of Fame of
human curiosities, historical accidents,
and industrial freak?, as well as a
monumcn'. to our ancestors who lived

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
By local application as thoy cannot
reached the diseased portion of the
ear. Thoro Is only one way to cure
deafnoso, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
Inllamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube Is inflamed you havo a rumb
ling sound or Imperfect hearing, and
whon It is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the Inflammation
oan bo taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will
bo destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ton are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condidltou of
the mucous surfaces.
Wo will glvo Ono Hundred Dollars
for any ca9o of Doafooss caused by
catarrh that cannot be cured by Hall's
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.
