We have outstanding on subscription
more than $1,000. yet we are
not able to pay office rent. Our expenses
this year have been hea\ier
than ever before. Now, we make
this personal appeal to our readers.
Pay what you owe to date and at
I least one year ahead and save us the
j additional trouble and expense of
j sending out one thousand individual
j statements. To the few who have
already paid,this, of course,does not
apply.

Mr Morris was licensed by the conference
to preach, and both he and
Mr Teasley were recommended to
the General Conference for admission
on trial. Presiding Elder Holroyd
and Rev W A Fairy participated
in the meeting.
The small amount you owe us on
subscription is a trifle to you, but it
means hundreds of "dollars to us.
Having to employ extra help practically
all this year to take the place
of our sick chief, the paper has been
run at a loss since last spring. Even
at this time we are barely paying
office expenses, yet we are doing as

at this season. But collections
are what count and, we must say,
our collections are poor. Pay what
you owe?it matters not what others
do.

John Keels, a negro living near
Kingstree, came into town Saturday
and in order to raise a few dollars
other than by the proverbial "sweat
of his brow", swiped a nice bale of
cotton belonging to the People's
Mercantile Co from the platform at
the depot and sold it to one of the
buyers. The theft was soon discovered
and the negro was arrested and
given lodging at the station house
till Monday morning. The buyer of
the stolen cotton recovered his
money and waived further proceedings
against the negro. Then Mayor
Kinder took a hand in behalf of the
peace and dignity of the town and
fined him $20, which he paid.
