A Desert Land Ruling.

In making desert land entries, the
Interior department has notified the
land offices that it is necessary for
claimant, after showing the source of
the water to be used, and the amount
contemplated to be used, to indicate
by intelligible means, the bitches,
both mean and lateral, by means of
which every portion of the land is to
be irrigated, giving the width of said
bitches, and the depth and capacity
of the same. Also that the party
shall indicate, by shading or other
wise, that portion of the land which
he expects to be benefited by the use
of each ditch.
If there should be knolls or high
ground in the tract embraced in an
entry, not susceptible of irrigation,
the party should indicate plainly
that fact at the particular points.

With such weather as this every
one is happy if he has but half a
show. The poor printer alone sits
at his case in close stuffy room and
looks longingly out of the window at
the warm sunshine and splendid
roads, wondering why his early piety
did not lead him into the paths OF
an itinerant preacher, or of book
agent who lives on glorious sunshine
and feeds on the fat of the land.

Water for the Engines.

The Santa Fe railroad company
buvs water from the city water works
at Cimarron, Garden City, Coolidge,
Las Animas and Colorado Springs
for their engines. They pay these
towns five cents for every one thous-
and gallons used, and we understand
that they are willing to enter into
the same kind of contract with
Lamar.
The company uses about one mil
lion gallons of water a month at this
station, and the income to the town
per month would be fifty dollars, or
six hundred dollars a year.
This Is a matter that our city coun-
Gil could very pro6tably investigate,
and if they found that it would take
every cent of the additional income,
above the water works expense now
incurred, to comply with such con-
tract, it would yet be profitable on
account of the better service that
would then be obtained from our
water system.
Lamar's water supply is praetic-
ally inexhaustible, the water works
are of sufficient capacity to render
ten times the present service, and
to get the most benefit from the in
yestment should be the aim of those
in authority.

interesting and profit
able time.

The board of trade has appointed the
various committees for the farmers in
stitute for the Arkansas valley, to be
held at Lamar, next Tuesday and We'd
nesday, and they report favorable pro-
gress in their work.
The acceptance by those to whom
parts were assigned, in this and other
counties Of the valley, have been received,
and everything indicates that the insti-
tute will be grand success.
One OF the most interesting and in

time run against snag in his business,
and this opportunity Of having undecided
points discussed by practical men should
be taken advantage Of

DO Your Trading at Home.

1t is fact that goods are sold at retail
in the small towns where rents are cheap
mucl, lower than the same goods can be
sold in the cities where rents and taxes,
and living generally, are much higher.
1t is also true that your own home
merchant is more likely to sell you the
right goods than the city merchant. The
home merchant knows your need or want
and it is to his interest to treat you
squarely. The city merchant is stranger
who never expects to see you again, and
NAV be less careful to sell you the right
goods.
Not one buyer in ten is judge OF
goods and ] must trust the merchant
with who trades, no matter whether
he is iIlond or a stranger.
The idea that few dollars may be
saved by ordering groceries is fallacious'
The list price Of some standard article
may be shade less, butwhen the freight
and drayase are taken into consideration
you can do just as well at home, if you
pay the cash.
Every city newspaper urges the citi
zens to patronize home enterprises
Why should not the country people
patronize their own home markets?
Don't run up your credit account until
it is near the danger line and then SEND
of your. cash for goods.
Buy at home, where you see -.
buy, and where you have a known deal
ers guarantee.
Stick to your home merchant, and yor
will do better for yourself than in send
ing off to strangers.

Not a Third Party Man. /.

OAKwAY, S. c., September 26, 1892.
MEssRs. EDITORS KEowEE COURIER: I
notice in your last issue that sT., y of
Seneca, is trying to make the people be-
lieve that atleast one or two of the dele
gates to the recent State Convention
were Third Party men. ''f,' says that
one or two of them made such declara-
ton in Seneca on their way to Columbia,
and that to "T'' they were strange dele
gates to go to Democratic convention.
I would sag to Mr. T. that stopped in
Seneca two or three hours, and if he had
reference to me Say here and now that
the charges are false and I will face 'T''
or any other man ON that subject, let him
be Democrat, Third Partyite or Conserva-
tive. ct" was one of the six delegates
elected to the State Convention. l filed
written pledge with the County Chair
man, ten days before the election, to sup
port the nominees of the Democratic
party. I have kept that pledge so far
and I expect to keep it all the way
through from Cleveland to Coroner. If
''T'' and the other Conservatives will
keep their pledges as well as the much
despised Reformers will wswiiIlll caEry the
State for Cleveland and Farmer Tillman.
I do not wish to enter into a newspaper
controversy with ct" but want to let the
people know 1 am Democrat. feel

ton from first to last. By the way, none

The Case Clererly Put.
Cotton :plant.l


In summing up the pending case against
the Sumter Fertilizer Company the Bal
timore Manufacturers Record makes the
following statement:
ssIn South Carolina there is law which
provides fine of 81 900 or Imprisonment
for term not exceeding one year, or
both, as penalty for the manufacture
.or sale of impure fertilizers. This law
is now being enforced, and the Sumter
Fertilizer Company, charged with fur
nishing fertilizers containing 60 per cent
sand, has been proceeded against. The
outcome of this matter will be watched
with interest by farmers and the fertili-
zer trade. Severe competition has
induced a lowering of the standard OF
certain classes of fertilizers, and if all
companies shall be compelled by law to
maintain standard grade of EXCELLENCE,
there will probably be an effort made to
unite many of the interests and thus
avoid price cutting, which would be dis
astrous to the weaker concerns. The law
is good one, and the principle involved
11igat ne adyantageously applied in other
directions"
The Record is right, and the merit OF
the case is above question. We trust that
this case is the beginning OF better things
in the fertilizer business, for we are per.
suaded that there is much imposition
practiced upc- she farmers in the matter
of fertilizers. The fact that any com
pany should attempt such gross frauo
would of itself indicate more or less
general prevalence of the practice. Le
the law be enforced, and let the inspec
tors redouble their vigilance. A large
responsibility rests upon them.

A Studied Neglect.
columbia Register.

1t does seem that among the fifty Con-
servative delegates in our State conven-
ton that one man could have been found
to move that the nomination of Gov.
Tillman and our State ticket be made
,,narirnous. But such was not the case.
Col. Haskell, in his defense of the mi-
nority platform, harped great deal on
Democratic precedent; but it never oc-
Cured to that gentleman, so it seems,
that there is time-honored precedent
among our South Carolina Democrats
that when the majority of convention
names a candidate or ticket, that the
minority bow in graceful submission to
the decree and vote the chosen ticket the
unanimous voice of the assembly. The
minority leaders in that convention de-
manded that the majority concede all to
them, but were not willing, in their stub
born opposition to our State administra-
ton, to yield even an empty courtesy,
and thus permitted the impression to 60
abroad that our State officers, nominated
by such large and respectable number
of Democrats, were so obnoxious to their
opponents that self-respect would not
permit unanimous endorsement. And
these gentlemen, too, prate about peace
and unity
Can there be "peace" SO long as such
spirit of bitterness and intolerance pre-.
vails9 and did they not refuse to accord
that "unity'' in our party ranks SO es
sential at this critical period in the po
litical history of our State?
Compare the conciliatory and courte
GUS addresses of Gov. Tillmau and the
other Reform nominees with this studied
and deliberate rebuke by the minority to
the candidates of their party, and then
tell us to which faction rust the people
look for peace and. unity. Col. Has
kell was jealous of any Infringement upol
the usages of the national Democracy
| but ignored his own native State, tha
he claimed to love SO dearly. The oliv
branch of peace, SO gracefully extended
to his political opponents by Gov. TIL
man in the brief address accepting th
q
