UNION, 8. C., APRIL 24, 1903.
Spring is here in all its glory. The
leaves are leaping forward to full
growth; the flowers are blooming;
the birds are singing. Nature is
showing forth the goodness of God.
Would not this be a good time for us
to resolve that more of the sweet,
less of the bitter, more of the spiritual,
less of the carnal shall enter into
our thinking. Life is too short for
bitterness, too glorious for much of
the sordid and the evil. A man finds
what he seeks. Let us seek for j
the pure, the sweet, the happy thiDgs
of life. .
___ W? ?retti hearty favour of having
a local base ball team. The sport is
invigorating and productive of manliness.
The "bloomer girl" base ball
business, however, is not so good for
the reason that it degrades womanly
modesty and is a serious violation of
womanly instincts. The novelty of
seeing women in bloomers play ball,
not their good playing, draws a crowd.
People will flock to see a stranded
ship or a wrecked train. But such a
show is costly. So when a man or
woman sacrifices the noble instincts
of modesty, people crowd to witness
the wreck. But it is a costly show.
Success is purchased at tremendous
cost.

for the fifth time thus settled
the question. The miserable defect
In the law allows those in favour of a
dispensary to keep bringing up the
question, while there is no provision
made for a community to get rid of
one when it has been established,
This is true, even if public sentiment
should come to be overwhelmingly
against it. When it comes, it comes
to stay. The law should allow the
opponents of ther system the same
privileges in getting rid of it, that
those favoring it are allowed in seeking
to establish one.
The National Conference of Charities
and Correction will be held in
Atlanta, Ga., May (>th to l'ith. Great
efforts are being put forth to make a
great meeting. Editors and others
from all over the country are being
encouraged to attend th? conference.
The end sought to be accomplished
by the organization is commendable.
It seeks to regulate and improve
questions pertaining to charities and
crime bsy getting down to the philosophic
and hdmanitartan basts of operation.
Distinguished men of various
professions will address the conference
on a variety of subjects along
these lines.
Kditors have written, preachers
have preached, good citizens have
talked against the ever increasing
spirit of lawlessness. The tide seems
to rise higher and yet higher. But
let pot the friends of humanity cense
their fight. Often the enemy makes
his mightiest show of battle when in
the laBt ditch. Against the solid
march of righteous indignation and
protest this spirit of lawlessness
must eventually go down,' Let us
uphold the law; let us talk down the
shedding of human blood; let ua insist
upon a return to the enforcement
of parental authority ; let us insist
that juries do their duty as fearless
men. Keep 011 tr ^ing, writing and
working. A better day will come?
must come. The time is coming
when human life will be held as a
sacred thing, and the shedding of
blood a horrible crime. As a people
we must come to reverence law, uphold
authority, and value the man
more than the sheep, or our future
must become a present calamity.

O
COniNQ UP TO THE
SPECIFICATIONS.
A jeweler sold a man a plated
watch chain. It was guaranteed to
wear for five years. The purchaser
wore it eight years and at the end of
that time came back to buy a fine
watch. The faithful representation
as to the chain brought a purchaser
for an article fifty times the value of
the chain. An architect was needed
for an important work. One was
chosen for the work because it was
known that he had scorned a bribe
at the hands of a contractor and had
insisted on having the work come up
to specifications. A certain farmer
living in Union county can always
sell his produce a little higher than
others, for the reason that the eggs
he brings are fresh, the beef always
fat and juicy, the chickens plump
and fat, the vegetables fresh and good.
People have learned to know that
what he bring will always come up
to specifications. A certain other
farmer sold a load of wood. It was
good on top and bad underneath. He
knocked in vain at that door offering
a second load. It is often thought a
thing of little moment, but &rave
consequences hang upon seeming
trifles. There is often a present gain
in having work fall below specifications,
but it is a dearly bought gain.
A certain merchant broke full handed.
He made a net ten thousand.
jliui c*ci oiuto 1110 uuc uig gain tic
has made little or nothing. He died
in the business world when he seized
present gain without respect to honor.
A young man may think it a matter
of small importance as to how he
uses his employer. But there is one
thing certain: The man that more
than fills the contract with his employer
is on the sure road to advancement,
while the man that fails to
fulfill the contract is on the sure
road to a smaller salary and a poorer
reputation. The clerk that gives
less than the best service is lacking
in that high sense of honor which
always commands respect and advancement.
The merchant that sells
goods which do not come up to his
estimate of them will find old customers
dropping off and fewer new
ones coming to buy. The parson
who preaches a poor sermon In order
that he may save a good one for a
greater opportunity will find in the
end that he has lost by the transaction.
A boarding house that
charges a good price, yet gives poor
service will find itself without boarders.

way. It may not be so swift a way
as some other. But it leads to a better
destination.
The papers of the State have
spoken most kindly of Mr. Jno. R.
Mathi8; who was for so long a time
editor of The Times. Below we give
one or two clippings: .
"John R. Mathis has resigned the
editorship of the Union Times to engage
in other business. Mr. Mathis
is a good newspaper man whose departure
from South Carolina journalism
will be regretted."?Spartanburg
Journal, 17th.
"Editor John R. Mathis, who has
presided over the destinies of the
Union Times for four years with
ability and success, lays down the
pen to engage in other business.
The new editor of Thk Times is not
announced."?Spartanburg Herald,
IS'th.
Mr. Mathis has won the respect
and esteem of the State press, and
his laying aside the editorial pen is
by them regretted.
The State Superintendent of Education
has issued a statement that
the State Summer School would bo
held at VVlnthrop College, June 2:trd
to July 22nd.

It is hoped that the correspondents
of The Times who have contributed
so much to the past success of the
paper will continue their good work
in our behalf. A new editor does
not mean that we must have new
correspondents. We beg for a continuation
of your helpfulness. Write
the news, sharp, clean-out and to the
point. And accept our sincere thanks
for your co-operation.
A Demonstration of What Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy- Can Do.
"One of our customers, a highly respected
citizen of this (Race, had been
for ten years a sufferer from chronic
diarrhoea," writes Wajden A Martin,
druggist, of Enterprise, Ala. "He bad
used various patent preparations and
been treated by physicians without any
1>ermanent benefit. A few months ago
le commenced taking Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
and in a short time was entirely cured.
Many citi/.ens of Enterprise who know
the gentleman will testify to the truthfulness
of this statement. ' For sale by
