.Senator Tillman's "fried chicken
shower," while a very interest- i
ing bit of news, no doubt, is 1
getting rather monotonous by it- <
eration and re-iteration in all its '
phases and variations. ,
Governor Blease, up to last
Sunday, had granted tive hun- ,
dred paroles and two hundred
and thirty pardons, a total of (
seventy hundred and thirty. That
is "going some," even for Blease.
Congressman Ragsdale has already
set at naught very decidly
the oft-repeated dictum that a
new member of Congress can have
no influence at Washington. On
the important committee of Banking
and Currency, he has made
his influence felt in no uncertain
way and the measures he advocates,
if carried out, cannot hut
be beneficial to the section he
represents. Mr Ragsdale is a
hard tighter and will never r?e
content to play the role of "knot
on a log" in the councils of State.
The election in Florence county
Tuesday on the question of
voting a half million dollar liond
issue for road improvement seems
to have gone by default. No
managers, it seems, were appointed
and the election was held at
less than half the voting precincts,
we understand. Without the least
desire or intention of "butting
in" on a matter that does not concern
us, we think the people would
have "repented at leisure" had
they saddled themselves with this
enormous burden of debt and
taxation.
The News and Courier's Washington
correspondent writes his
paper that a rumor is current at
the National Capital that Governor
Blease will not enter the Senatorial
race next summer, but,
instead, will offer for a third term
as Governor. Nothing that our
* ? i-?__
esteemed uniei i\xecuu\e imgm
eleet to do would startle a constituency
long surfeited with thrills
of his making, yet we can hardly
see how His Excellency, after
repeatedly announcing that he
was in the fight for the Senate
to win, can afford to get "cold
A VARIETY OF NEWS i
FROM SGRANTON.
BUILDING STILL GOING ON?A H
MARRIAGE-SOCIAL AND
PERSON \L NOTES.
Scranton, August 5:?Mr Frank ic
Sturgeon of Denmark visited rela- j c
lives in town last week. f
Mr and Mrs Geo Singletary of Flor- c
ida visited relatives here last week, t
Messrs B B Myers and R L Lee, t
two of our hustling merchants, went p
to Charleston Sunday, returning a
Monday evening.
The B B Myers Co have removed t
their stock of goods into the brick a
building recently completed for c
their use. 1
When the store building of Mr J b
M Parker is completed,which will be b
within the next two weeks, the build- t
ing on this corner will be finished, t
This building has three departments, v
Dr Pate's drug store and offices oc- p
cupy the first floor. The next is al- v
so owned by Dr Pate and is occupied J i<
by the B B Myers Co. The third isj
owned by and will be occupied by Mr d
J M Parker. a
According to reliable report there s
will be a livery stable built here in A
the near future. The structure will w
ko knilt r>f hriok not of wood.as WHS tl
first contemplated. It will be situated
a short distance below Dr
Pate's drug store. This enterprise
is projected by Messrs Graham and
Myers, who have already received a 81
lot of Rock Hill buggies and a big w
shipment of wagons, with other sup- p
plies to follow.
The school house is nearing com- t<
pletion, and the new Baptist church >is
about ready to be turned over to a
the congregation. .With all this actual
improvement and more under a
way we must say: "Watch Scranton u
Grow!"

Mrs StanleyMatthews of Cowards, C
who is ill with an attack of typhoid a
fever, was taken to a Florence in- o

>tany Also Get Diarrhoea?What
To Do in Either Case.
Summer ought to be the months
>f most perfect health, but owing to
ontaminatcd water and milk,unripe
ruit, germs and insects the average
f health is not good at this time of
he year. There is much skin trou>le
from acid fruits, and much dys>epsia
and diarrhoea from cold foods
ind iced beverages.
The skin trouble is easily stopped
?y discontinuing fruit for a few days
>nd by the use of a mild laxative to
lean the bowels and tone the blood,
"he dyspepsia is likewise corrected
>y the use of a laxative that has comtined
with itthe elements of a digesive
tonic. Hence the best remedy
o use is Dr Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
yhich, as its name indicates, is a
feasant laxative combined with the
irtues of pepsin, which we all know
s the best cure for indigestion.
Use Syrup Pepsin also for summer
iarrhoea. Avoid astringents,physics
nd cathartics, as they are unnecesarily
harsh. Thousands of good
imerican families prefer Dr Caldtell's
Syrup Pepsin, among them
