At the adjournment of the term >n this the 25th day of March, A. 1 D. 1905, a meeting of the bar was ldd at which the following pre- 1 imhie and resolutions were adopted: Whereas the conclusion of the > present term of court terminates lie oflicial relations which has exsted between the Hon.

The most acceptable and appreciable gift, one that would be most highly prized, and forever cherished as a souvenir of the happiest hour of a young ladie's life, should the legend prove true, is a yellow garter. It is said that the young lady who at Easter receives a yellow garter as a present from a friend, will within the year marry or liecomc engaged to the one she loves best. Death of a Bright Young Sludent. After a few weeks illness Mr. Glenn Smith, of this county, died at the home of Mrs. Gentry in Greenville on Saturday afternoon, 8th inst., at 3 o'clock.

Garman, of Lexington, Ky., saya that the 17 year locust arc now forming in small swarms and by the first of May will have increased to vast numbers and will l>egin the devastation of all vegetation in their track. The locust is a plague of centuries standing, of their dcBtruetivenes8 we have some fearful accounts of the years in which they made their appearance. This entomologist says this year will be marked by the havoc of their ravages. They cat every living green vegetation and leave nothing in their track, will destroy whole fields of wheat corn and cotton in a very short time, the boll weevil is not to be compared with the locust in point of destructivsncss. IliLii-12.i . &' Whether the Moral Windmill1 Is No Good or Not. Cant and recant, chant and keep chanting, for wind in cheap, hut at' the same time please rcnicmlter! that: "O, votes, ye are mighty." j And we arc under the impression j from the reports that come in as t<? I the number of signers to the peti-1 tions, that the Hon. J. E. Wiggin- j soaker is more afraid of them than he is of the moral windmill. We are also truly glad to know that this despised class of moral windmills are a stumbling .block to such "morals' as J. E. Wigginsoakcr and the "Great Intitution." They must be such, or his Royal Highness could not have, possibly stooped so low as to have noticed them, and especially through the public print. Moral Windmills, you are arraigned for l>cing applicants for positions in the Great Institution, (which I have no doubt was a crime, without the sanction of the "crowd") also that you were advocates of the barroom system, have Ixkmi "blind tigers" and other divers things by the Hon. J. E. Wigginsoaker, and we are already satisfied you arc convicted by this modern 'Sherlock Holmes." Look out for his further investigation. Maylnj if he succeeds in catching you, he will he given a chance on the cock fighters. He is out for promotion. We arc truly glad that he has a high admiration and profound respect for some kind of people and we are thinking he will also have the same for the moral windmill after the election. Cannot the thief become convinced and be converted? Christ says so. And Moral Windmills, if you have been, keep the good work you are advocating going and raise such a tempest that such things as the Hon. J. E. Wigginsoaker and the Great Institution will be blown from our country. We arc satisfied that the atmos pnere will be sweeter. When the sale of whiskey was done by the barrooms nearly every one agreed that it was immoral. Now that the State has given its sanction to the sale under the present system they would have you believe it is moral and at the same time and also in ft loud voice "profitable!Take Aiway the dispensaries and you take away lots of profits to town, county and state, is the cry of the dispensary crowd. Now, if it is morally good for the State to be in the barroom business for profit, why not let the State give its sanction to other vices, viz: Gambling rooms, pools, rowdy houses and such like and run them for profit. Where is the law for these beer dispensaries? Is there any law on our statute books giving them the power to run and stay open? Not like the Hon. J. E. Wigginsoakcr we are trying to point out that it is an ill wind that blows no good, and we hope that the wind of the moral windmills will do good this time and help to blow away this evil of "moral institution,'' "political machine," "ruincr of homes" and J. E. Wigginsoakcr. Citizen. Baptist Convention.
