E4litor of Tle Advertiser: I write relative to the work of the lighway Commission. I see from their r(port that they recommend a change of grade of road from Clinton to ilAurens, which has been reported as the best auto road In the state. Now, let's go back a little in 1878. Whilo a member or the legislature I voted for ia bill to appropriate $100,000 to build a rail(oad from Greenwood to Spar talburg, and $50,000 to extend the road from lLaurens to Greeiville, neither line touching Sullivan town ship. Vhy did I do it? Because Liau r01ns county needed help at that lime. Laurens was a one-horse town; with Robinson lotel, a few commercial houses andi a number of small shops where you could get all the hooze YOu wanted. She had shade trees along the streets with chairs for the clerks to sit in. About the time of the Crews riot my faithful body servant, Sam, who had gone with me during the 'Civil War, had a petty case in court and when the trial came off, lost his case. ie returned from Laurens very much disappointed and indignant at the ac tion of the court. lie said, 'Marse .oe, Laurens is no place to hold court. They ought to turn hert out." I mention this to show the condition of Laurens at that time. Princeton Is 20 miles to Waterloo, IN miles to Laurens, 16 miles to Gray Court where we have benn paying taxes on railroad bonds for a number of years and 110 direct benefit .received. Now justice demands that the Highway Commission should build the first line of good roads from Lau rens to Princeton in lieu' of the tax Sullivan township has paid the coun ty for railway bonds. At Princeton you connect with a top-soil road to Greenville and -Peizer and from ;Pel zer to Anderson, a good road bed. T[he question might be asked, why should the i Highway Commission paral lel the line of railway if the taxes to be paid is for the benefit of the tax plyers? It looks that Fountain inn, Gray Court and other points in the county should be satisiled with tle $1150,000 in vestim ent which they have been enjoying for years and let Sulli van township get a little of the $300, 000 voted. Why bles.4 you, when they wanted to vote tle road bonds, they sent a strong delegation from Laurens and Gray Court. to Princeton and had speakers from Greenville to persuade the townshi) to vote for the bonds, and we voted it. Now, I ask those same men who were at Princeton, to see that justice is illeeted out to Sullivan town ship. 'he distance from Kinards to lountain Inn is 36 miles. From Laui rens to IMnoree 12 1-2, Laurens to Cross 11111 and Vaughnville 23; Boyds Cross roads to Waterloo and Puckett's Fer ry, 10; Laurens to Princeton 18. The point I make is that the funds will be exhau iist ed before lhe 11 gli Iway Coin mnission reaches thle Princeton line un less they build our1 line among the first, which is rightly deservedl. WVe dos't want to be like a poor man at a frolie: v'ote aund pay taxes anrd get niothling.

KEEP WELL ATeaspoonful of PER UNA Has Never Been Down Sick Since Taking PERUNA Read this letter from Mr. Robt. Minniok, Grass Ragge, Montana. "Iny 1900 I wasn out in K(ansa runinga a threaking engine arid the thteshing cesw had to sleep out of doors. One of the croew brought a P'erua' Almanne to the engine one day and I was foeling very il from aleepin g out. Ided togive Perunn n trial and sent for a bottle of lPo runa andl a box of Peruna Tab le, which straightenedl me out' in a hurry. "I have never been down stek since that time. I do not take any other medlicinen excepit Pa runa. I always keep it on hand. If I got my foot wet, get a cold. foel chilly, or a little bad, I al wsa take Peruna.

New York, April 9.--The American steamslii) West Ilumhaw, the Ifilt American ship to enter a Germas port since America declared war, returned here today from Danzig. She left the altic port March 19 after delivering a cargo of pork products sent from the United States for the relief of the Poles. Ca-plain Ilatfleld, commander, said that everything was vory Kituiet in Danzig during the 15 (lays that his ship was there. Tfa -aut ns," hie ni."laid them selves out to flatter us Americans. They were all friends to the United States, according to themselves and blamed their troubles on the English and French. "As far as I could see they did not. seem to have many troubles. I have been many times in German ports, but I never saw people looking more 1pros perous or better dressed than In Dan zig. Nobody was doing any work, but as the government paid them eight marks a day for doing nothing they did not seeni to think there -was any necessity for working. The t.wo things they appeared very short of were soap and sugar. If ai man had a piece of soap lie locked it up in a safe and they would steal anything weet if it was not nailed down." Captain Iatield said not much had been done toward cleaning i) the mine flelds in the North Sea and the Baltic. Ills shLp took six (lays zig-zagging along through the mine fields and he received repeated warnings not to an chor or even cast his lead. The winds, he said, set loose flocks of mines and ships were In constant peril fromu these float ing menaces as well as from oth ers on the sea bottom in shoal waters. The West Hlumhaw brought a quan tity of mall from the American navy and army oflicers an( other oflicials who are engaged in relief work in Poland and Germany.
