LAURENS, S. C, SEPTEMBER II, 1907.
A year ago TlIB Advertiser sugges
ted the formation of a Laurens County
historical society but no one seconed
the motion. We offer the motion
again.
This era of prosperity in Laurens
County should not pass without the
construction of some good roads. Some
day we shall have hard times again and
good roads make then easy to get over.
^^flpator Tillman is now rearing in his
jfo nobody has been proaecu
HHling the State of South
^Tjaroin^^rnrough the State dispensary.
^Had this Tillman when Governor caused
the early violators of the law to be
prosecuted there might bo a slate dis
pensary now. Everybody knows that
Oovernor Tillman took no pains to en
force the law against defaulting county
dispensers and everybody knows that
as Governor he was not distinguished
for insisting on the prosecution of
criminals of any kind.
The annual expenses of the city
government of New York are now
about as great as were the annual ex
penses of the government of the United
States when Mr. Hayes was president.
Of course the larger part of New
York's public money raised by taxation
is stolen by corrupt officials. The pco
pele of New York are able to endure
the terrific strain because they have
mastered the art of robbing the rest of
the country. When a man goes to
New York nowadays he expects to be
robbed and submits to it like a gentle
man.
THE ANTI-COCAINE LAW PROSECUTIONS
The druggists in Columbia charged
with selling cocaine in violation of the
law should be vigously prosecuted and,
if they are guilty, they should not be
allowed to escape punishment, through
any technical defeat which may be re
sorted to for their defence. The legis
lature when it enacted the law recog
nized the dreadful evil o'f selling cocaine
to persons who do not need it for
medical purposes and the intent of the
law is fully understood by all pharma
cists. Attorney General Lyon long ago
gave it his opinion that the law forbade
the sale of the drug in all forms.
Generally the drug store man fully
knows when a customer wishes a
poisonous substance for legitimate
purposes and it is not likely that the
anti-cocaine law has been violated in
ignorance or in innocence.
LIEN LAW AGAIN.
Before the legislature meets in Jan
uary, it would be wise for farmers of
Laurens County who are opposed to the
lien law to write or to speak to mem
bers of the Senate and the house urging
them to vote in favor of the law's
repeal. That a bill to repeal the law
will most certainly be introduced and
we believe and hope that it will pass
but farmers everywhere should give
their representatives encouragement to
vote for it. Representative John Rich
ards of Kershaw endeavored to get
through a repeal at the last session and
almost succeeded. Since the adjourn
ment of the legislature Judge Brawley',
decision adverse to the labor contract
law has greatly strenghtend the argu
ment for repeal and, indeed, it is now
more than ever a necessity. Should
Mr.s Richard introduce his bill again it
should meet with little or no opposition
but in the meantime, it will be well for
employers of labor to inform the mem
bers of the legislature of their views
in regard to it.
I.ante Back.
This is an ailment for which Cham
berlain's Pain Balm has proven espec
ially valuable. In almost every instance
it. affords prompt and permanent relief.
Mr. Luke LaGrange of Orange, Mich.,
aays of it: "After using a plaster and
other remedies for three weeks for a
bad lame back, I purchased a bottle of
w- ' Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and two an
imations effected a cure." For sale

PERTINENT QUESTION.
That Can Be Answered Greatly to our
Advantage.
Uniquenss is the strongest recomcn
dation for the hill of fare circular re
cently issued by the new Chamber of
(k>mmerce but it fails to whet the ap
petite of the investor sufficiently. The
following are some of the questions
that would he submitted by prospective
settlers:
What are your inducemnms for in
vestors?
Do you offer for sale desirable lots or
factory sites? State the price?
What is the bonded indebtedness of
' your town?
Specify the taxes on improved and
unimproved property?
What enterprises not yet established
in your judgement would yield fair re
sults for the money invested?
Are your municipal affairs in the
bands of ultra-conservatives or is there
a public spirit manifest in the manage
ment willing, if ncedbo, to sacrifice
personal interest for the upbuilding of
Laurens?
These are questions that if answered
satisfactorily will have a tendeoy to
press the button and set. in motion the
wheel of modern progress on the banks
of Little River. Censor.

THE LAURENS NEWSPAPERS.
Dr. Jacobs Pays High Pr* ? to Industry
and Literary Ability Displayed.
We have recently been much inter
ested by a survey of the contents of
the various county weekly papers that
come to this office and have been much
struck with the amount of editorial
matter that some of them contain.
Take the Laurensville Herald as an
instance. It is published in our own
county. We understand that Mr.
Grenekcr is its editor, or one of them,
and that he is responsible for the full
page of editorial that appears every
week under the head of local. 11 is
good reading too, for the editor evi
dently has a conception of what
makes good reading. Of course the
Laurersville Herald is not the only one.
The Advertiser published in the same
town deserves the same high ecomiums.
The review of the weekly papers that
we receive would show up well for the
versatility, the industry and literary
ability of the country editor. How
these papers are ever published for a
dollar a year and that on a necessarily
i.inull subscription and consequent small
advertising patronage is more than we
can conceive.? Our Monthly.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy One of the
Best on the Market.
For many years Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy has constantly gained in favor
and popularity until it is now one of
the most staple medicines in use and
has an enormous sale. It is intended
especially for acute throat and lung
diseases, such as coughs, colds and
croup, and can always be depended up
on. It is pleasant and safe to take and
is undoubtedly the best in the market
for ..he purposes for which it is intend
ed. Sold by Laurens Drug Co.
The Advertiser is one of the best
county weekly newspapers in this or
any other state. It will coat you only $1
a year. Each issue will cost you less
than a 2 cent postage stamp.
Cat Harper. The Mail Rider.
Tumbling Shoals, September 7.? We
arc sorry to lose our old star route
rider, Cal Harper. He has given us
faithful service on our mail route for
the last twenty years. He was as
regular as a clock. Rain or shine,
snow or beat wo looked for Cal to
drive up on the hour.
We will miss him in other ways be
sides mail matters. How will the
ladies get their eggs, butter and
chickens to market? And their needles,
pins and buttons from Laurens? The
men, too, wanted somtething every
day, from a piece of bacon up to a little
colic cure. Harper did a sight of ac
comoadation work on this line, besides
that for for which he was well remun
j erated. Good-by Cal, we wish you
I luck on your new job.

Worked Like A Charm.
Mr. D. N. Walker, edP.or of that
spicy journal, the Enterprise, Louisa,
Va., says: "I ran a nail in my foot
last week and at once applied Buck

followed; the salve simply healed the
wound." Heals, every sore, burn and

The Confederate Monument.
A meeting was held on salesday last
by the sons and daughters of Veterans,
in the interest of the Confederate
Monument that is soon to be erected on
the public square of our city, near the
Court house. It was decided that
committees be appointed to begin at
once raising funds for this purpose.
Mrs. Robert Bell was requested to ap
point these committees in each town
ship, to notify them and ask their co
operation.
This monument is to be a well de
served tribute of honor and esteem to
both the surviving Veterans of the
Civil war and to those who gave their
lives, in Hospitals and on battle fields
to our loved South-land. Almost every
family has representatives in this
noble band of heroes and we are assured
that all will esteem it, not only a duty
but a privilcdge to assist in this work.
Nearly all the counties in our and other
states, have already erected monuments
to our heroes: shall Laurens continue
behind? No we are certain it will not.

How to Remain Young.
To continue young in health and
strength, do as Mrs. N? F. Rowan, Mc
Donough, Ga., did, She says: "Three
bottles of Electric Bitters cured me of
chronic liver and stomach trouble, com
plicated with such an unhealthy condi
tion of blood that my skin turned red
as flannel. I am now practically 20
years younger thnn before I took Elec
tric Bitters. I can now do all my work
with ease and assist in my husband's
store." Guaranteed at Laurens Drug
Co., and Palmetto Drug Co. Price 50

LOSE ALL BY FIRE.
Former l.aurcns Citizen Sustain Hire
Losses in Columbia.
Fire last night at 10 o'clock destroyed
the residences of Ernest D. and W.
Capers Harrell, of 2-112 and 241G Laurel
street. The tire was in Waverly and,
although out of the city, Chief May, of
the fire department, lent a helping
hand, by having a steady stream of wa
ter turned on tho fire. Both houses
were worth about $2,500 and were in
sured tor $1,500. The origin of the
fire Is unknown.- Columbia Record,
Sept., 5.
Mr. W. E. Harrell, who resided in
Laurens for a number of years, occu
pied one of the dwellings that was
burned, and it is understood that he
lost all of his household furnishings, as
did tho other members of tho Harrell
family residing in the second house.

AS TO A NEW COURT HOUSE.
[Communicated. ]
The arguments for a new Court
house do not appear convincing at this
time from the of view of the town.
Whatever the objections to the
present bulling in the matter of con
venience, it can't be contended,thnt it is
not handsome. One may inspect num
bers of new Court houses in South
Carolina towns and conclude that the
architecture of our building is perhaps
more pleasing than is that of any of
them.
Tho removal of the Court house would
not improve the appearance of the
public square. The Court house should
be enclosed with an ornamental iron or
chain fence and the ground around the
building set in grass. This has been
urged by Thk Advertiser, for tne last
15 years and if it were done the Square
would be beautiful. Were the Court
house gone the Square would still be
ugly unless it were put in grass and
shrubbery.
In our opinion a new site and building
worthy of th?? county could not be pro
vided for less than $50,000. or $75,000.
The site of the present Court House
could not be sold so as to realize any
considerable sum of money. Why
should the town buy it?
If the objection be to the present
county oflices, it might be expedient to
erect a building for public records, to
contain the oflices of the clerk and reg
ister of mesne conveyance, judge of
probate and treasurer and auditor, etc.
This could be done for perhaps $15,000.
Plenty of room in the present building
would remain for other offices.
Spartanburg built a new Court House
about 12 years ago. It cost $75,000 at
least but its court room is not as large
or as good as that in our Court House.
Seventy five thousand dollars would
build 20 miles of macadam road We
need that more than we need u
Court house.

Obituary.
Mrs. Emily Thompson Griffin "fell
asleep in June" at one o'clock 14th., of
August, 1007 at the home of her son-in
law, Mr. George M. Davis, Laureus
Co. S. C. Early in life she professed
Christ and united with the Warrior
Creek Baptist Church. She was more
than half century an earnest, consis
tant Christian, and made it tho "chief
end of her life to Gloryfy God"?Hav
ing so lived, Death had no terrors for
her. She met it as calmly as if making
any change in life saying?"It is all
right, I am perfectly resigned to the
will of God and am prepared for the
change"?"I don't care to live longcr
I am Raved not through merit of my
own, but by the blood of Christ my Sa
vior."
These and other expressions of a like
nature fell from her dear quivering lips
as she patiently bore intense sull'uring
many days without a murmur, and she
is now "in the palace of the King."
Such a life is worthy of emulation and
the world is better for he r having
lived. Ah! would that this might bo
as truly said of more of us, Being a
true Christian, she was a good wife,
step-mother, mother and friend. True
to her trust in every instance "she
fought a good fight she kept the faith
and has now entered into the joys of
her Lord.
Mrs. Griffin was twice married. First
to Mr. Duff Gary who lingered with
his young bride only two short months
before sacrificing his life for his coun
try. A beautiful son from this mar
riage died at 7 years of age.
Her second marriage was to Maj.
Richard L. Griflin, a man of stearling
worth and deep piety. Together they
worked earnestly and well for the Mas
ter's cause. Maj, Griffin died many
years ago leaving her a widow with 4
sons and a daughter whom she succeed
ed in rearing in the fear and admoni
tion of the Lord.
Her sons are, Mr. John King Griffin
of Tonn. Mr. Thomas Jones Griffin of
Fit/, Gerald, Ga., Mr. Collet L. Griffin
who died some years ago, and Mr. Will
C. Griffin of Greenville, S. C. One
daughter, Mrs. George M. Davis of
Clinton, S. C. Besides there is a most
devoted step-daughter, Mrs. John T.
Robertson to whom she had taken the
place of "Mother" since she was seven
years of age, and who joins her broth
ers and sister in sincerely mourning the
death of this consecrated woman. Of
her it can he truly said,
"None know her but to love her,
None name her but to praise."
We will give free $7.50 worth of ware
at our store during the week from
Sept. 23rd to 28th. See the advertise

W. G. Wilson & Co.
Here is found a big line of Dress Goods open
ed for the season. While the eye meets colored
fabrics in quantity, special mention is made here
of the Black Goods. Much time and care is given
to the selection of these. The goods are shown
here in a strong light and now ready for inspection
and comparison.
Leaving the Black Goods, Blue and Brown
seem to be the leading shades for the season, nice
inexpensive goods are shown here in these colors.
Among the notions are the latest styles in
belts, hand bags and combs.
The new Hosiery bears the world renowned stamp
"Ilennsdorf dye."
A slight advance in price is observed in sonic lines of
domestics, but the prices arc as low as the same standard
brands can be secured anywhere.
