Those Clemson bed-bugs should have behaved better last summer when company was around. Is your son or daughter away at college? If so, they would appreciate The Times as a letter from home. It is certain that government ownership of railroads is a far bet tor condition than railroad ownership of government. There is a cessation of tonsorial operations in the hurg Fort Mill.

Let the good work go on; when eoliege men turn to fanatics ami engage in 1 rutal hazing, send them home. So mute it he! Saturday of this week lias Keen set apart as work-day for the orphans of our State. Pastors and Sunday School superintendents, upon the suggestion of the orphanage authorities, have requested thai the people give the money made on this one day to support of these orphan children. This is a sural' request?one day's work out of the whole year; and the cause is a nohh one. Messed is the community o State which cares for its parentless homeless children.

If we have t chamber of commerce, what is i doing? Just at this time the work of a l)oard would count for much Now, while the Southern Kni/waj is running roughshod over the com mercial interests of the town, an ap|>eal from such an organiz.itioi would be effective, while others r< ceive no attention.

The freight conditions have been somewhat remedied, thanks to the establishment and active operation . of the Union and Glenn Springs 11 road; but the passenger service remains in the same abominable state. ! And since there is no competition, )! it will continue thus untiAho citi)i /.ens of Union wake up anil demand ' their just and neserved rights.

Union has reached a stage in her development where she pannot afford to siC. supinely/by and let matters rjjfi their pvn courses. Her business interests* demand attention. And whose* but the business men'a^duty is it to take up such mattere. The newspapers >of Union are ready and willing to do all in their power to aid in these matters, but theirs is not the duty of taking the initiative; they are the spokesmen for the people.
