The South Carolina Bourbon State Com

political solidarity is as important as ever
before, and there is less excuse than in any
previous canvass for discomfort and deser-

Why, of course it is. The next House of

If there is dishonest feature in the meas

interests of the country. The waterways of
the country were created by the Almighty as

dollar spent in the necessary improvement
of their navigation is returned fourfold to
the farmer, and all others who have property
to ship and sell, in the reduction of freights.

Some of the Advantages.

Coal mined near Chattanooga is
sold in Louisville at 8 cents. Coal
costs in Pulaski an average of at
least % cents. A low estimate
puts the total amount consumed,
outside of mills and factories, at
$4,000 bushels. This costs $ll, 900.
At cents it would cost $4,000. II
we had a railroad to the CumbeT-
land mountains we could get com
peting rates. We do not intend to
even approximate the correct fig
ures, here, but only to get the idea
out prominently that we are losing
more money in one item than our
taxes would have been if we had
built the road. The road from the
Tennessee river TO the Cumberland
mountains, as a part of through
line from east to west, is trade and
geographical necessity. The ore
beds down west of us that now can
not find purchasers at any price
would be developed and in two or
three years we would hear of a mil
lion dollar trade here, two
million investment there, and half
million company yonder. Is there a
man blind enough that he cannot
see that these things aOiH be brought
out some days Why not2 The adj
vantage all belongs to Pulaski.
The ore and the coal would meet
here where the Great North & South
road offers competing rates, and
it would be the place where rolling
mills, foundries and factories could
be most adFantageously operated.
Pulaski property owners had better
mortgage their lands and houses
and get money to build this road
than to put off this matter day. Is
this an overdrawn estimatelof Pulas
ki's opportunity To cut it half in
two and divide the parts ten times
over until all the coloring is boiled
and squeezed out of the picture, and
still there would be enough profit
left to make Pulaski a manufactur-
ing center and her people prosper
GUS. Our article last week reviving
this project has attracted attention
abroad and we have been urged to
awaken our people to its impor
lance, with an assurance that a
definite shape can easily be given
it. A railroad meeting of Pulaski
ans might lead to some action and
excite action elsewhere. Lincoln,
Lawrence and Wayne are vitality in
terested and the railroad companies
see and know these things and need
only the stimulus of local awaken
ing to induce them to take active
steps.

BUSINESS Notice.

Mr.. r. CLARK HANsELL, late edi-
tor and proprietor of the Decatur
News, will from this date be asso-
ciated in the editorial and business
departments ofthe CITIZEN. He is
young man of high moral charac-
ter and peculiar qualifications in the
profession OF journalism. Coming
a stranger, he will necessarily find
his duties difficult for a time. but
the proprietors in recommending
him to this people sincerely request
their friendly aid until he shall have
gotten acquainted. In view of the
increased support being accorded
by the people of Giles county, we
thought it due them that we should
increase the CITIZENS merit, and in
retaining Mr.. HANsELL we feel as
sured that we shall meet this
purpose.

Cotton Seed Oil Mill

We have heard several men Of
capital in Pulaski say they would
take stock in an oil mill in Pulaski
and We have been told of others who
would invest. 1t seems that all that
is needed is some one to start it. 1t
needs no argument nor figures to
show it would pay here. Giles is
the largest cotton-raising county in
Middle Tennessee and right at the
extreme north of the cotton belt, SO
that she can get the advantage of
lower freight rates on the oil to
wards the north. There are thouS
ands of bushels Of seed raised an
nually in this county from which
little or nothing is realized and the
establishment Of this oil mill here
would consume them at such prices
as would put hundreds of dollars in
farmers pockets. Cotton rsisers
are greatly interested and it would
pay them to start this industry, if
the business men fail to do it. The
stock could be easily subscribed if
some reliable man would take the
matter in hand.

One vast reason for the suneric

One vast reason for the superior
ity in point of push and Selling OF
opportunities enjoyed by northern
ers over southerners is that north
erners of all sorts and conditions
habitually read the newspapers.
They not only keep up with the ad
vance Of thought and applied ideas
in mechanics and al the industries,
but they catch the inspiration and
are borne along by the tide Of prog
ress that charactcrizes that section
and every man is a factor and an
integral part of the forward move
ment. We need it deplorably in the
south. Not one-fourth of our vot
ers read the papers. 1t is noticea-
BILE and true that the thirst for
newspaper reading is on the in
crease and that energy and prosper
ity keep an exact pace with the
spread of intelligence through the
papers. Newspapers are the chan
nels of thought and progress I'm
mistakably and a man must keep
posted if he would keep up with the
times. Farmers should read and
insist on their neighbors reading
the papers.

We call particular attention tc
the character Of reading matter or
the outside of the CITIZEN this
week. There are ideas, facts and
suggestions embodied in the -Vari.

boom. Help US spread our circu
lation, friend, until every man and

We take the liberty to copy few
sentences from a letter from q
prominent gentleman who sees the
Importance of road from the Ten
nessee river to the mountains. He
says:
81 read your article on the Ten
.nessee river and Fayetteville rail
road with much pleasure. BY all
means the road should be built and
extended to Memphis. No road in
the country is of more Importance
than that. By all means urge it.
1t will be built sooner or later. If
this miserable state debt question
was out of the way we could do
something towards improving the
country, but some men are now
constantly trying to show how poor
and oppressed we are, which is all
false. So far as / am concerned l
am willing to take CO.'S, sos, 504
or 1908, if it will give us a settle
ment, but to leave this question
open for. another ten years would
ruin US. Any settlement is better
than none"
