Our climate is about ilie same ; as that of Aiken ami South' rn Pines, I for tin enjoyment of which tourists | travel many miles and spent! many | dollars. Our a'litude is ideal, our rial- i ural drainage per feet. We are the * hub of a line agricultural community. J All this nature has done for us. Hut J as a community we have done mighty I little for otirsel\es. With the excep- | tion of ej 'cirie lights we are without t a singi modern convenience. We are g without suliicie: t housing r.ecomoda- , tions. We are without any sort of ho- ^ tel accomodation. We hive no streets. \ All of these tilings Chesterfield I needs and must have if she keeps f pace with civilization. | Our people are becoming alive to j the fact that we are no longer a vil- j lage, that we are a thriving business : center and as such mu t of necessity ! expand or go backward. Of late we have gone backward. We have not { kept even with our lire losses. Our s buildings burn faster than we build ^ them. ! There is a movement on foot, which, if carried to a successful is ue ; will result in the town having a sys- J tern of waterworks and sewerage. J This, is as it should be, the first slep. * Without the protection of water peo pie will not build houses. Without the i convenience and health protection of sewerage people who have h< mi u ed ) to such things will no; come !">om oth- f er places and locate among us. Wat- j erworks and sewerage arc m? longer j considered hr uric . hut are absolute f necessities. The movement bar start- ^ ed and it mils' . d if Chesterfield : is to I.< ru; : a nod in which, to ' ; live. j | A hi" ' . el : ' ,i ?

The j Republican majority failing in the at- j tempt to pas the ratitication measure L as they had amended it, wranpled ? to the last, tryinp every means in ! their power to put through a Peace } Treaty as weak as skimmed milk in j June. The Democratic minority j stood for a real document or nothing. | They pot iiotiiiup, but have the sat-J isfaction of kuowinp that the Repub- i ! licans pot no more than they. The | I Leapuc of Nations will probably cut i t some figure in next Kail's election; I but it is a much too involved matter | to make good political material. Too . much explanation will he necessary i and it will be too diilicult to ta! e the , * average voter through tie- intricacies: I of the various interpretation, of the! I | * different articles, clauses and prolo- I cols. For a political i sic something ? is needed that the voter may declare i himself, or herself, "for it or agin' : it." The League document is rather f complicated to he treated so simply. I Anyway, the American people have heard and read so much for trie last four months and have learned <> lit tie of the matter that it is likely thai j they would prefer to turn thiir en- j thusiasm to some other subject. SAFELY STOWED It was in I'aris. 'lie- talkative guide was exhibiting to the .r/e rested j r< American tourist the tomb of Kapo-|tl leon with all the en tomary flourish- ' , es of both language and hands. "This immense sarcophagus," exclaimed the guide, "weighs forty |> tons. Inside of that, sir, i a steel receptacle weighing tweKe ton , and ,,f inside of that is a l< aden la-*, her- tl. metically sealed, weighing over two ();1 tons. Inside of that rests a mahog- s.t ny coffin contuing the remains of r):i a very great inan." For a moment the American was silent, na if in deep meditation. Then _ he said.
