Liberal reduction made for largo Advertisements. W. W. Mail, Proprietor. LAURENS, S. Cm July 27, 1904. What Is the Object? If tho object of militia encampmonts is tn have men drilled, to have them | learn smoothing of the soldier's life and to mako the money available for this object go as far as possible, the wisdom o( having all the regltnonts to go iuto encampment at a central point near Columbia is amply demonstrated If tho object is to givo the men a frolic, it would bo wiso to permit each regi ment to co to a different town each year. If a reglmont wero to camp at Laurens for a week next year, its ofll cei's nnd men would have a glorious time, for Laurons would coddlo and caress thorn to their boart's desire. * The Home Market. In many parts of South Carolina the developenunt in truck farming has been remarkable in tho last few years. In Horry county tho shipments of strawborrioa, beans, okra and other vegetables has expanded from practi cally nothing to many hundreds of thou-anils and even millions of dollars In Heaufort and Colloton countios farmers are making money rapidly from their Irish potato crop. Far in the interior, in Alken and Edgeileld counties, tho asparagus crop has come to be an item of considerable commer cial importance These are a few ex amples of new industries which havo recently had beginnings in this St vie. The Advertiser has pointed out before that there are numerous oppor tunities open to Laurens farmers. In Union a creamery has been estab lished and it Is stated that tho demand for its cheoses cannot be supplied; that a market is found for Its output In sur rounding towns. In growing garden trucks the Southern coast counties have of course a largo advantage over the Piedmont, but wo doubt if the vegetable homo market is fully appre ciated by Lnurcns farmers. Chickens and eggs have increased about fifty per cent in value in Laurens within tho last live yoars. All kinds of meats havo "gone up" and the chances to sell things are incomparably hotter now than thoy wero a fow years ago. _ it appears to Tun advertiser that If It were possible to ralso a hog In Laurens county without loss when pork was worth seven or eight cents tho pound, it ought to be possible to make money in raising hogs now that pork is worth 12* cents tho pound. We do not advise beg raising as a business but wo believe and do advise tbatevery Laurens farmer should raise part if not all of his owu meat Time and again THR ADVERTISER has urged that there is or should be good profits in sheep raising. Last week the writer learned iu Ashevllle, N. C, that "lamb chops" bring *J0 cents the pound on the Ashovlllo market. Such meat brings a similar price In Aug usta, Columbia and Charleston. Sheep may be raited as well and as cheaply in Laurens as in lhincombe county, >'. C. It Is true that tho dogs are ln the way. Whenever our people discover that sheep an- more valuable than dogs thoy will begin to livo on mutton. Mutton should ho the cheapest meat wo have. What we wish to emphasize is that the people of Laurens cau easily pro duce all that they eat, excepting only a few Mich articles as coffee, sugar and salt. Moreover, there are scores of things which can bo produced on the farm, without interfering with cotton production, to be sold at a profit in the town of Laurens and in neighboring towns nnd cities. In what we are sav ing there is nothing new. Others as well as Tub Advertiser have said it time and again before but it is our hope that by Incessantly repeating it, we may help to Induce pcop'o to act upon It. * A Mai tor of Taste. Notwithstanding that Senator Tilhnan used his best efforts to persuade the South Car dina delegation at St.Louis to abandon Parkor and veto for Gray, he seconded Judge Parker's nomination in a speech. It was a strange proceeding and will hardly be pronounced as an act of good taste. Ordinarily tho sec onding on the part of South Carolina would have boon left to G jvernor Hoy ward or Mr. Ithett who wero I'arker men from start to finish. It would have boon a pity, however, had our senator missed any opportunity for self-advor tlsoment. It pays to advertise. * A Campaign Sign. It Is pleasant to observe that tho Kepublican papers are alarmed at the nomination of Judge I'arker. As long as Mr. Bryan was the nomineo it was possible for them to proclaim that tho triumph of Democracy would mean general demoralization of business and actual damage to tho republic. Wheth er or not Ulis was true, It fell upon will ing ears. Toose who voted against Hryau believed that they wero helping to Save tho country from a real peril. Tho feeling is whofly different now. No ono imagines, not even tho nfoat partisan of f .--publicans, that tho election of I'arkor and Davis would catiso any serious disturbance. The intorests specially favored by tho He. public*n tat'Ih* are naturally bont upon Republican success but tboy are barr?.d from claiming that the public credit or any of our national Instftutions, such as tho judiciary, aro threatened. Iu other words, when tho Ropublican par ty was fighting bryun it was able to |K)?e as the defender of tho Republlo against innovation and experiment. Fighting Parker, tho burden of proof Is shifted. Tho ica-onab'eness of Roosovolt rulo is now to be established ?whereas ln HHW to provd tho unrea sonableness of Hryan'sm was Its com partivoly easy task. Tho cantiiduuy of I'arker and Davis Is the appeal of tho massoa for plain, sane, simple and honest government. To de fend the noisy, restless and menacing methods ol Roosevelt, the unfair and fraudulent tarift privileges and the record of departmental rascalities in Washington will tax all the resources of Republicanism and the utterances of Republioao papers mako plain that tbey aro fully aware of tho hard strug gle before tbein. * We hope the Demooratio voters of Laurens will lnsl-jt upon tho candidates for the legislature discussing tho lien law. Whether the law ia bad or good, no harm can follow upon the discus sion. If tb ? peoplo aro not to bo in formod on topics of near interest to thorn, what is tho good of having a campaign? Tho paoplo of South Carolina would spend any amount of msney to escape a y ellow fever or cholera outbreak each year. Yet two hundred and more fc'outh Carolina people diu oach year by the murder pest and through tboir juries tho peoplo of South Carolina do nothing to prevent It. It has come to pass that the chief object of a murder trial In South Carolina Is tp pro'oot and vindi cate the good name of any white man who has killed anothor. A nun who slaughters another and is not tried and acquitted may be looked upon with suspicion. As long as the administra tion of our criminal laws romnins as it is, trials will be convenient things for murderers. For in these days it will not bo soriously assorted that murder is a crime. It Is quite true that you or I may bo shot In tho back at any time without provocation aud you and I know very well that nobody will bo punished. It Is more dangorous to kill a dog than to kill a man. If you kill a dog the dog's owner may kill you. If you intend at any time to kill a dog it may be prudent to kill its owners first. BRUTALLY TORTURED, A ease came to light that for persis tent and unmorclfut torture has per haps never been equaled. Joo Golo blck, of Colusa, Cal. writes. "'For l? years I endured InsntTo.ablo pain from Kheumatism and nothing relieved nie though 1 tried everything kuown I came acrcss Electric Bitters and Its the greatest medlclno on earth for that trouble. A few bottlaa of it complete* ly relieved and cured mo." Just as goid for Liver and Kidney troutdos and general debility Only f>Oe. Satis faction guaranteed by The Laurens and Palmetto Drug Go's.

At "La Bolle Meado," the cl-gant suburban home of Mr. James Williams Jones and Mrs. Tallulah Irby Jones, thoir daughter, M iss Kathariuo V atts Jones, was (ha charming ho3tes?, on the afternoon of July 14, from six to o'ght o'clock, in honor of her sisters, Mr. Jarnos Williams Jones of Greenville and Mrs. Prof. Thomas Foster Jor.os of Gray Court This at!motive hoino, so nicoly suited for entertaining was on his occasion, thronged with handsome ly dro sed ladios.

Catarrh cannot lie cured by the use of pills, liquid medicines and so-called system tonics. Under such treatment the germs of tho disease will still live in the air passages and increase and multiply. Ilyomei is tho only scientific and thorough way to curo catarrh. Killing tho germs in tho air passages, it enters the blood with the oxygen, destroys tho microbes in tho hood and clYoct ually drives from the system all traces of catarrhal poison. Probably the strongest cvldenco that can b3 offered as to tho powers of Ilyomei lo cure catarrh is tho fact that the Laurcns Drug Co. will agree to re fund the money If you 6ay Ilyomei has not cured you. Tho comploto Ilyomei outfit costs but $1.00 and consists of an inhalar that can bo carried In the vest pocket, a medicine dropper and a bottle of Ily omei. Tho inhaler lasts a lifetime, and if one hottlo does not euro, an extra bottle of Ilyomei can bo obtained for 50 cents. MERCHANTS NEWS. Moasra. S. M. & E. II Wilkes Sc Co., Laurors, S C.

I Low Prices Linked With Seasonable Merchandise We are already looking ahead to Fall; and the first preparatory act toward the Fall campaign is to clean out, as far as possible, all balances of Summer Goods.

Therefore, we shall materially lesson the prices on a great many lines from now out; and offer you a chance to buy the best of seasonable merchandise at a good bit less than ordi nary prices.
