Where there is a hospital, the doctors

MR. McGOWAN's card.
We publish in this issue of the Ad
vertiser a very readable card from Hon.
F. P. McGowan. While readable there
is very little in the card that we are
disposed to endorse other than the fact
that iti the very near future we will be
compelled to have a new court house for
Laurens.
Wc arc in favor of the city purchas
ing from tho county the old court
house, but when he talks about paying
^ $25,000.00 for it or selling the present
city ball property for $15,000.00 it seems
rcdiculous.
We want a new city hall also, but
wc don't want it on the public square
any more than we want the court house
there, if the old building is to be left
there wc are in favor of it remaining a
court house. As for obtaining spring
water for Laurens that proposition is
t not to be more seriously taken than
that the city pay $25,000.00 for the
court house; in fact not so much so,
the city could pay the $25,000.00, but it
will not and should not, but it is a
phisical impossibility to obtain as much
water as the city requires from any
half dozen springs in a radius of five
miles of Laurens. Besides, it is utter
^ folly to say that Laurens has not as
good drinking water as any town in the
country. Some people are prejudiced
against it it is true, but the chemists'
analysis and the practical use of it as
demonstrated and by the health of the
citizens who use it exclusively prove
"conclusively that the water is all right.
CLINTON'S FORWARD MARCH.
THE ADVERTISER congratulates Clin
ton on having water-works and electric
light. Nothing is too good for Clinton.
It is the soundest, town we know any
thing about, with its splendid orphan
age, its fine college, its noble churches,
\ its wide streets, its handsome stores,
' its pretty girls, its big cotton mills, its
^.rich merchants, its clever editors, its
Dr. Jacobs and its scarcity of lawyers.
We. are glad to see that Clinton pro
poses to build a monument to the Con
federate dead and we are sure that the
plan will be carried out. Wc wish every
community where" even a few hun
dred poople arc gathered together |
would build a Confederate monument.
Passing through Joncsvillc, a village
half as big and one fourth as well-to-do]
as Clinton, the other day, wo saw from
the train a handsome Confederate mon- ]
umcnt which was recently unveiled.
Everybody passing through Joncsvillc1
sees that monument and it puts every
body on notice that the Southern Cause
is honored in Jonesville, it tells the
passing Northern man as soon as he
gets into the town that tho men of
Jonesville are proud of their fathers
and what they did and warns all stran
gers that the history, the tradition and
the living principles of the Southern
poople still find defenders.
There should be a Confederate monu
ment in Clinton and another in Lau
rens. _
A REAL DEMOCRAT.
About the soundest Democrat conspic
uous in national affairs is Alton B.
Parker of New York. Badly beaten ]
as ho was for President, his principles
and utterances h;?ve been wonderfully
vindicated. He charged that rich New
York men and the corporations wore
putting up the money to buy the elec
tion for IlooScvclt, Roosevelt bitterly
. denied'it, but. tho insurance disclosures
and the Harriman lotter proved it.
Judge Parker believes that there are
too mnny laws and that the thing to do
is to enforce the laws wo have. He be
lieves in sticking close to tho constitu
tion; ho is a "strict constructionist"
and resents the surrender of tho liber
ty of tho individual Democrat to laws
and law officers. That is tho attitude
of ovory true Democrat; that is tho
gospel of Jefferson.
Meantime, the probability is that the
UfjcVocrats will nominate for president
r ncx^t year some man who does not know
the difference between Democracy and
^ M or monism.
IS LAURENS FOR LIQUOR?
There is no greater mistake than to
suppose that The Advertiser cares
especially whether Laurens retains dis
pensaries or votes them out. Columbia
and Charleston are liquor counties be
cause they want liquor. Laurens has
equally as good a right to have a thirst
and to gratify it as has Charleston.
For a long time it was said by many
persons in this county that they were
prohibitionists but favored the dispen
sary because prohibition could not be
enforced. Now prohibition can be en
forced; is enforced in Greenwood,
Spartanburg and other counties arouud
us. State prohibition in Georgia will
greatly multiply the difficulties of im
porting whiskey.
If Laurens wants whiskey, Laurens
should have it. Far bo it from The
Advertiser to deprive any man of his
dram; we have no objection to a man's
j taking a dram so long as he does not
get drunk "cuss" out and shoot up the
neighborhood. A man has a perfect
right, in our opinion, to drink so long
as he does not interfere with or dis
turb the rights of others and leave his
family as a burden upon the charity of
others. The trouble is that men who
drink too often do interfere with others
and mistreat their family.
But if Laurens peoplo stand by the
dispensaries let them do it in open,
manly fashion as liquor people and not
as prohibitionists. The majorities in
j Charleston, Bamberg and Columbia
arc liquor peoplo. Why should they
not be if they choose to be? Let ev
ery man in Laurens who is for the dis
pensary come out and say that he is
against prohibition because he favors
the Bale of liquor. Certainly, in our
judgment there is no disgrace in hold
ing to that opinion.
As for the election of members of
the legislature, the state dispensary
being no longer and issue, there are
some dispensary advocates in Laurens
whom The Advertiser would delight
to support for the legislature.
W. J. BRYAN'S WARNING.
Comments at Length on the President's
Recent Speech.
Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 24. ?William J.
Bryan, in commenting on President
Roosevelt's last speech, said:
"The president has at last disclosed
his scheme for centralization at, which
he has hinted in former speeches. In
his Provincetown, Mass., address he
proposes the national incorporation of
railroads and other corporations en
gaged in interstate commerce.
"Here is the secret; it is out at last.
The Ltntes are annoying the corpora
tions and the corporations demand fed
eral protection from State legislation.
The president thinks that action is
most pressing as regards these corpo
rations which, because they are com
mon carriers, exercise a quasi-public
function.' The States have been en
acting 2-cent fare laws and laws re
ducing freight rates and the railroad
managers demand that they shall be
relieved from further fear of such leg
islation. The president's Hamiltonian
ideas make him an easy victim and he
yields to the entreaties of the railroads,
fc If it is the public he sought to pro
tect he would recommend federal rem
edles which would not interfere with
State remedies, but it is the railroad,
not the public, that demands the re
moval of authority to Washington.
"Tho Democrats can be depended
upon to oppose with all their might
this movement toward centralization.
If any Democrat wavers his constitu
ents should look into his business rela
tions and see whether he is under obli
gations to the railroads. A Hamilto
nian Republican like the president may
honestly think that the farther the
government is removed from the peo
ple the better it will be, but a Jefferso
nian Democrat does not cherish any
such delusion. Even the Hamiltonian
Republican ought to hesitate to trust
congress with any more power while
the United States senators arc elected
by legislatures.
"It is fortunate that the people have
had an object lesson recently. The
federal law stopped rebates and passes,
but the railroads make more money
than they did before. The States, on
the other hand, gave the people a re
duction in rates and those who arc re
ceiving the benefit of these reductions
will be slow to surrender the advantage
thus far gained.
"It is doubtful whether the Republi
can congressmen from the West will
dare to support the president's propo
sition, but if an attempt is made to put
such a measure through congress the
Democrats will stand a good chance of
retiring every Western Republican who
votes for it."
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy Better Than
Three Doctors.
"Three years igo we had three doc
tors with our little boy and everything
that they could do seemed in vain. At
last when all hope seemed to be gone
we began using Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and in
a few hours he began to improve. To
day he is as healthy a child as parents
could wish for.- Mrs. B. J. Johnston,

Cotton Sold at Oaffney.
Gaffney, Aug. 24.?The strccis of
Gaffney yesterday were the sceno of
quite an unusual spectacle for the sea
son. Load after load of cotton was
! being hauled through the streets, and
upon inquiry it was learned that a lot
0^*865 bales of the staple had been
bought by Mr. R. S. Lipscomb, cashier
of the Merchants' and Planters' bank,
from LeMaster Bros., Dr. Jefferson, J.
D. Hughes and others. This lot repre
sents about all the cotton left from last
season's crop in Cherokee county. The
price paid was 13 1-8. Buying cotton is
somewhat out of Mr. Lipscomb's line
,f business, but, he is always ready and
willing to do a good turn for his farmer
friends.
Hunting For Trouble.
"I've lived in California for20 years,
and am still hunting for trouble in the
way of bums, sores, wounds, boils,
cuts, sprains, or a case of piles that
Bucklen's Arnica Salve won't quickly
cure," writes Charles Walters, of AI
leghany, Sierra Co. No use hunting
Mr. Walters; it cures every case. Guar

and each of them will be anxious to

help make this the only free show, the
21st., (show) a success.

THIS MAN WAS CRAZY.
Followed Girl Around World, Married
and Then Killed Her.
Insanely jealous of his attractive
bride of two months, says ar. Associa
ted Press New York dispatch, Julius
Teich, a sdk weaver, today shot her
through the head and then sent a bul
let into his own brain. Both died a few
minutes later at a hospital, where they
were taken.
Neighbors in the apartment house
where they lived said the couple had
quarrelled violently during the last few
days. When shots were heard in the
apartment this afternoon the police
were summoned, when the doors were
forced Teich and his wife were found
unconscious. The couple were married
in June. Teich was 35 years old and
his bride was 30.
It appears that it was after a search,
which lasted five years and covered
]r.,000 miles on the continents, that
Julius Teich found the girl that he lov
ed and persuaded her to marry him,
only to kill her after two months of
wedded life, and then, repentant, to
take his own life.
Emily Herter lived in Germany with
her parents when she first met Teich,
who was a silk weaver. Teich fell in
love with the gird and wanted her to
marry him. But he was possessed of a
violent temper and Emily feared him.
Her parents also objected to the mar
riage. But Teich was insistent, so
that Emily left Germany secretly to
escape him, and came to America.
This was five years ago. For two
years Teich searched Germany for her,
but failed to find her. Then her par
ents admitted to him that she was in
America, but refused to tell him where.
Nothing daunted, the young man came
to America and renewed his search.
He hunted New York for months, but
failed to find her. Then he went to
Minneapolis, St. Louis, Philadelphia and
Scranton, where he thought the girl
had friends, but without result. He
returned to New York a few monthH
ago accidently, met Emilyon the street.
She was living with her aunt, and in
spite of her aunt's objection, Emily
finally consented to marry the man, who
had been so faithful in his search for
her. They were married two months
ago._
A Valuable Lesson.
"Six years ago I learned a valuable
lesson, writes John Pleasant, of Mag
nolia, Ind. "I then began taking Dr.
King's New Life Pills, and the longer
I take then the better I find them."

Corn Bread and Hominy.
i ?
South Cai-olina farmers, as a rule,
says Editor Wallace of the Newberry
Observer, do not pay enough attention
to corn. This is not a corn country, its
true; our land is better adapted to cot
ton, and cotton is more of money crop
than corn. But we ought to raise more
corn; we ought to do it by better cul
tivation and more care; and that will
be done from this forward, no doubt,
for the farmers have found the way.
There is no farm product so useful
about a farm. It is the best food for
horses and mules and most other farm
animals. When raised at home and
well cared for it is pv.re and sound and
wholesome, while on the other hand
much of the corn that comes from the
west is inferior; none of it is as good
as the South Carolina raised.
We do not appreciate fully the value
of corn as a food for man. It is more
wholesome than wheat. Hominy is a
staple food for breakfast, and no man
Bhould go to his work without it. In '
fact a breakfast of hominy and butter,
with milk or coffee, makes a wholesome
and sufficient meal; to which egg bread
or batter-bread may be added. Hom
iny or egg bread is a far better food
than nine-tenths of the so-called "break
fast foods" with which the country is
flooded. There are numerous ways of
preparing appetizing dishes from corn,
and if wo would eat more of such pre
parations and less of heavy biscuit and
rancid meats we would have less TTJa
pepaia and live longer.
South Carolinans are learning how to
raise corn. Let them learn now how
to make good use of it.
More corn and less corn liquor is tho
order of the day.

Ribbons!!
Recently we had something to say about Rib
bons; Lest it may have escaped your notice in the
advertising columns we again repeat the story.
A case of twenty cartoons was received in plain Taffeta and satin
Taffeta. The manufacturer's quotation today nave about touched our
retail price, but the figures will not be changed hero in the face of a
rising market while they last.
We mentioned also, the white Linnene at 10c, 40-in. white Persian
at 16c, and white Linon, same width, at 10c. These goods are fast
disappearing. No such value can be shown after those numbers are
sold.
Good styles yet to select from in colored wash fabrics.
Torchon, Mechlin and Val Laces and Insertions.
If you arc in quest of Embroideries see the stock shown here.
Ladies Black Seamless drop stitch, lisle Hosiery.
Drop stitch in White, Black, Blue and Pink for children.
At the present price of cotton the purchasing
public will soon realize that by delaying their pur- |
|j chases, much higher prices for the manufactured
fabric will be the order of the day.
