tits the line. Entered at the postoffice at Laurens, S. C. aa second class mail matter. LAURENS, S. C, APRIL 15, 1908. Clcmson is Minus; Minus is Clemson. Another grafter in politics?but his name is Luther Burbank. We respectfully suggest that the city council pass an ordinance prohibiting hack drivers and hotel porters crowding around the train exits upon their arri vals. In plain words the Hon. Dan S. Hen derson does not consider the coming senatorial contest sufficiently important to demand HIS attention. "There will be no dearth of candi dates," says ex-Candidate D. S. Hen derson, meaning "I shall leave the un important issues to the smaller fry." Henderson's withdrawal from the senatorial race is a boost for Heyward. The Columbia State says: "Columbia, we fear, is arriving at the sardine stage of development." Canned, by gum. In New York a baby girl has been born with two tongues. Here's dollars to doughnuts that she will be an old maid. A newspaper deplores the scarcity of wool. Just wait, brother, for the open ing of the gubernatorial campaign in South Carolina. There are some few limitations to the platform of Caleb Powers, who is run ning for congress in the Frankfort jail. "What is the best cure for that poetic feeling that comes on at this season of the year?" asks The News and Cou rier. Spend a day in Columbia. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw has announced her intention to live in Europe. We suggest a popular subscription to help buy her a count or duke or something to keep her over there. One question we should like to have answered: Why did the dispensary com mission invite Mr. B. F. Arthur to its sittings after Attorney General Lyon went to Union and demanded his resig nation? And if the commission saw cause why Mr. Arthur should not con tinue to serve on the commission why did it not request Governor Ansel to remove him? The paving of the public square should be an incentive to the Civic League to do something. And as a lit tle tip, we remark, Laurens can't be made a "city beautiful" without work. Some time ago we saw a press dis patch from Laurens which told of the organization of a Chamber of Com merce here. Is that correct, citizens? A timorous citizen was expressing his fears the other day about the heavy debts incurred by the erection of such a fine school building here, when a prominent banker made this remark: "I am willing for Laurens to assume any amount of obligations for such pur poses." This man is a heavy taxpayer, and the above remark indicates his pub lic spirit; just a few like him and Lau rens will grow. We nominate for delegates at large to the Denver convention: Capt. W. E. Gonzales, of Columbia; Hon. II. H. Watkins, of Anderson; Editor J. C. Hemphill, of Charleston, and Hon. N. B. Dial, of Laurens. Newspaper advertisement is cheapest during campaign years. April the first, we rise to remark, is All Fool's Day. The Clemson cadets chose a very de sirable season to be relieved from col lege duties; there is plenty of work on the farms just now and labor is scarce. Just think of the wealth-producing energy being expended on the baseball diamonds at this season; turned into productive channels what would be the result? Prince Ilelie De Sagau says he has had enough of America?then she is going to marry him. People who have been looking at the old public square for years had best take another and a long, loving fare well peep, for soon -oh, well; it won't be like it used to be. What has our friend Godfrey, of An derson, done that he should be threat ened with a term in.the legislature? All the students of the South Caro lina Military Academy have left Walterboro. Mr. .las. A. Hoyt, in a longthy review of the Ciemson trouble, among many other sensible things says: "So the Clemson boys have discov ered that what is wrong, either legally or morally, to be done by an individual is wrong, either legally or morally, to be done by a mob. I t has also been brought home to them that at Clemson violations of the college laws, whether by an individual or by a mob, will meet with certain punishment to the indi vidual." It is a very e:isy thing for a crowd of boys, all together to break laws and to play pranks; the trouble arises when they, each one separately and individ ually, must bear the penalty of the crowd's folly. In another column appears an article on Easter written for The Advertiser by Rev. W. E. Callender. The season is appropriate and we commend the subject and the treatise to all of our readers. V CITY TREASURERS ?JBPC*T. jtfier eohtnin appears the eu. an 1 ] Clerk and Treasurer, W. for the fiscal year ending We commend it to all lurens for careful be gathered sev linterest; and just that a very r read these i formed not be the malni erai interest is the amount of fines collected, which, the past year aggregated $5?847.85, of which amount $118.50 were returned. Although the report cannot so show it, the fines in reality amounted to almost $7,0(1).00; this is explained by the fact that when the books were audited last year, they were closed at that time and and about a month's fines appeared on the short report and not on the re port published today. Another item that will attract attention is the rev enue from special licenses, amounting to $4,286.01. The cash on hand April 1st, 1908, was $8,435.69. The revenue from the water and light plants aggre ated $9,876.45. The taxes collected for the current year amounted to the sum of $1:3,895.25. Another gratifying condition revealed in the report is the fact that Laurens has issued only $76,000.00 worth of bonds. This, we believe, is a smaller figure than the bonds of any other city of equal size in this section of the State. And a glance over the figures represent ng the property of the city: its power plant, water and sewerage system, and real estate is very pleasing, showing that with the expenditure of its moneys in the past few years the city, as a re sult, has valuable assets. One item of the Treasurer's report may possibly be confusing to some un acquainted with the methods used in the management of the dispensary re ceipts. The report shows receipts for only three quarters of the year,?a to tal for the three quarters of $8,904.97. This amount includes the three remit tances of the dispensary board as fol lows: August 6, 1907, $2,110.25; Decem ber 2, $2,415.30; March 6, $4,379.42. As will be readily seen, the amount due for the quarter dating from January 1, 1908 to April 1, 1908 has not yet been paid to the city; the October-December quarter was turned over as late as March 6, of this year. The dispensary runs on a cash basis, and consequently its remittances to the county, city and school funds are made at about the end of one quarter for the quarter immedi ately proceeding it. Some criticism has been made upon the council for not publishing the dispensary receipts in its quarterly reports. These amounts re ceived from the dispensary are kept on a journal account and in the quarterly reports have been included in the sun dry items. In the annual report, as is the custom, the dispensary item is specified. The report for the year 1907 is to all appearances a fine showing, reflecting credit upon the city administration. FIVE GENERATIONS LIVING. Mr. Joel T. Crisp, the County's Oldest Confederate, and His Descendants Mr. Editor: It was my privilege a few days ago to visit Mr. Joel T. Crisp, who lives with his son-in?aw, Mr. Rai ney Hitt. Mr. Crisp is now in his 89th year, and enjoys the distinction of be ing the oldest Confederate veteran in Ncwberry county. He enlisted in the Confederate army on the 14th day of April, 1861, and surrendered with Gen. Lee's army on the 9th of April, 1865. He has seven children living and a host of grandchildren. He has recently had his picture taken?and a fine one it is?composed of himself, his daugh ter, Mrs. Mary Hitt; her daughter, Mrs. Birdie Poag; Mrs. Poag's son, Luther Poag; and his son, Calvin Joel Poag?thus showing five generations. Mr. Crisp enjoys good health, has a good appetite and sleeps well. He is a member of the Baptist church and is able to attend divine service when the weather is good. He recognizes the fact that he, too, will soon follow his comrades-in-arms to that country where wars and tumults will ceare. ^ If it pleases, he would be glad if THE Laurens Advertiser would copy this from the Observer. I send the family picture to you, and Mr. Crisp would like if you can put it in with this little piece. Yours truly, A FRIEND. Mr. Crisp is known in Laurens county, especially among the veterans of the late war, who will read the above article with much interest. The Ad vertiser reproduces the article with pleasure.? Ed. Suffering and Dollars Saved. E. S. Loper, of Manila, New York, says: "I am a carpenter and have had many severe cuts healed by Bucklen's Arnica Salve. It has saved me suffer ing and dollars.

Thomas Stonton,postmaster of Ponty pool, Out., writes: "For the past eight years I have suffered from rheumatic pains, and during that time I have used many different liniments and remedies for the cure of rheumatism. Last sum mer 1 procured a bottle of Chamber* Iain's Pain Balm and got more relief from it than from anything I have ever used.

Why will people continue to suffer the agonies of kidney complaint, back ache' urinary disorders, lameness, head I aches, languor, why allow themselves to become chronic invalids, when a cer tain cure is offered them? Doan'8 Kidney Pills is the remedy to w\e because it gives to the kidneya the help they need to perform their work. If you have any, even one, of the symptoms of kidney diseases, cure yourself now before* diabetes, dropsy or Bright'8 disease sets in. Read this Laurens testimony: H. C. Graham, 304 Sullivan street, Laurens, S. C, says: "I worked on the railroad for many years and I believe that the constant jolting of the engine brought on nfy kidney trouble. Several years ago I noticed the first symptom of this complaint. There were pains across the small of my back and a sore ness through the region of the kidneys. The kidneys acted very irregularly and the secretions were quite unnatural in appearance. I was nnally told to try Doan's Kidney Pills and going to the Palmetto Drug Co. I purchased a sup ply. The contents of two boxes en tirely relieved me. On occasions since when I have had any return of back ache I have taken a few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills and always obtained relief. I consider them a most valuable kidney remedy." For sale by all dealers. Price f>0 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United SUites.

The discipline committee held its last meeting Wednesday night and the matter is now closed so far as the Clemson authorities are concerned. There were four of the cadets who were not dismissed: E. B. McBrady, a member of the ju nior class from Charleston, was sus pended until next September. He tes tified before the discipline committee that he absented himself from drills and classes but did not leave the cam pus. B. T. Knight, of Chesterfield, a member of the freshman class, was ex cused of this charge. It was on ac count of extenuating circumstances surrounding his case that the commit tee dismissed the charges. Cadet J. H. Haydon, of Orangeburg, of the pre paratory class, and Cadet J. R. Fizer, of Summerville, of the freshman class, will be dealt with summarily by Com mandant Minus. Below we reproduce a letter from Dr. Meli explaining the attitude of the fac ulty: To the Editor of The State: In reply to your invitation I make the following comments concerning the troubles brought on Clemson college by the outbreak of a large number of the cadets on April I: The dismission of these cadets by the discipline commit tee has emphasized the important fact that conspiracy on the part of the col lege students against authority, it makes no difference how large the num ber may be, cannot stand against law, impartially administered. The issue was made at Clemson: "Who shall rule, the cadets or the authorities?" The discipline committee has answered in terms which cannot be misunderstood in the future. The morning after the breakout against the regulations the discipline committee was called in ses sion by myself to calmly and thoroughly investigate the entire matter. The com mittee was in session morning, after noon and night from Wednesday, April 2, until Tuesday night, April 7. Each boy was given a fair and impartial ex amination and was allowed to state his case as fully as he desired, all testi mony being taken down by a stenogra pher. No one was dismissed who did not admit his part in the violation of the regulations and that of his own free will and accord he had entered into the conspiracy to break the laws of the col | lege. The students who were sent out from Clemson college were dismissed for the following offenses: 1. Holding a mass meeting in viola tion of the college regulations and de fying the same by absenting themselves from all college duties. 2. Defiantly parading in the presence of ?nd against the orders of the com mandant and the cadet officers after having refused to report to morning drill. 3. Deserting the college rnd going to the neighboring town of Pendleton, where they spent the day. 4. Binding themselves by a sworn document to stand toother and pledg ing that in case any of the number were dismissed they would all desert the college and go home. I desire to extend deepest sympathy to the parents upon whom has been brought this sad experience, and in this message to them the other authorities of the college join. P. IL MELL, President. Clemson College, April 8. "One Touch of Nature Makes the Whole World Kin." When a rooster finds a big fat worm he calls all the hens in the farm yard to come and share it. A similar trait of human nature is to be observed when a man discovers something ex ceptionally good; he wants all his friends and neighbors to share the benefits of his discovery. This is the touch of nature that makes the whole world kin. This explains why people who have been cured by Chamber Iain's Cough Remedy write letters to the manufacturers for publication that others similarly ailing may also use it and obtnin relief. Benind every one of these letters is a warm-hearted wish of the writer to be of use to some one else. This remedy is for sale by Laurens Drug Co. A Laurens Boy's Success. Mr. J. D. Burton visited his father, Mr. W. C. Burton, of this city, during the past week.
