When woman wants a letter she
wants it bad. If there are any who want
proof OF this fact, it is furnished by two
deaths tina. occurred last week-One at
Boston and the other at Chicago. A
young woman went to a Boston hotel
and waited two days for a letter. Be-
cause it did not come she committed
suicide. A woman went to the Sherman

for a letter, and because it did not come

DAWSON SLANOEREO.

The town of Morgan, county seat OF
Calhoun county, is discussing most Vig-
orously tie pros and cons as to the
town council of that place licensing the
sale of whisky within the corporation
Mr.. S. n. McGuirt, whoever that may be,
in communication to the Calhoun Coun-
ty Courier, urging the council not TO
legalize the whisky traffic, among other
things says:
"Dawson has made it's hrag how the
whisky traffic has built up Dawson. on !.
yes; it is building candidates for the jail,
gallows and hell faster than any town OF
it's size | know"
We do not propose to enter into dis
cussion as to the merits or dement's OF
the licensing of bars, but we do propose
to rise up and defend the fair name of
Dawson against all such foul aspersioDs
as are contained in the extract quoted.
1t has never reached our ears that
Dawson brags of increase in size and i'm
portance because of the whisky sold her.
1t is we'll known that there are only
half as many bars here now as there were
three or four years ago, and the number
is gradually decreasing. 1t lis a rare
thing 70 see a drunken man on our
sire cts. It is not the traffic in
whisky that moves us onward. lis the
push and public spirit of our people. No
town of similar size can point to hand
somer church edifces or more elegant
temple of justice than Dawson. Her
people are law-abiding, and are unit in
favor of furnishing law-breakers.
No, Mr.. McGuirt, don't attempt to put
our city up as 'horrible example" be-
fore the people of the state. Content
yourself with the legitimate discussion
of your topic and reflect before you drag
in outside towns to bolster up your argu-
ment, especially when in SO doing you
misstate the facts in the case.

THE YaWP or A GOLDBUG.

Last week, in commenting upon the
position of the Buena Vista Patriot on
she financial question, THE News called
attention to the fact that Editor Christie
pher was bowling for delinquents to pay
up and was ready-nay. anxious-to
take silver dollars, which he had termed
50 cents dollars, at 100 cents. That was
gaore than Editor Pendleton, of the Val
@aOsta Times, who is gOldbug with
government position attachments, could
9eS pass 6y and feel that he had dis
charged his full duty, so he rushed,
Sanch0 Panza like, to the aid of his

Growers praise all the time and have
nothing t. say OF the government and its
credit standing behind everything We
call money, be it silver, gold or paper.
Great stress is laid on the statement
that gold dollar will buy two Mexican
silver dollars, and even granting this
90 be true, what does it amount to?
Does Editor Pendleton really believe
that United States gold dollar will ever
buy two United States silver dollars, no
matter how many of the latter are coined,
while both bear on their face the stamp
of tAe government? The value of the
bullion may and does fuctuate, but re-

THE COWS are giving silver money
up in McDuffie county, the home of Tom
Watson. A few days ago Mrs. Charlie
Watson, after:milking one of herfne Jer-

is a Touchdown argument in favor of
''free silver which can't be answered

furnishing such arguments she ought to

ment.

A MOVEMENT has been inaugurated in
this state looking to the organization Of

the object of which is to materially aid

Those who have thoroughly Investigated
this matter are convinced that this can

strong permanent organization, and we
very heartily commend the movement as
practical, and calculated through good
management to greatly advance the i'll
terests of our manufacturing resources.

We hope that the Georgia camps will at

representation of southern veterans on
this occasion, and as many camps as can
possibly do so should go in body.

A LETTER in the News and Courier, of

Charleston, says:
Some time ago South Carolina mer-
chant ordered lot of canned goods from
New York, and on their arrival, 10! and
beheld, they proved to be goods packed
by canning factories i'll his own town.
They had been shipped to New York and
then freighted back to the same town
where manufactured. These goods paid
two frelghts, and could have been
bought cheaper from the factory at first.

tions that could be given of the mistake

The Rev. DIR. Ghiselin, of the Pres
byterian Church. in his sermon on
last Sunday morning, which was on
the origin and object of Theological
Seminaries and the necessity for
training young men for the ministry,
mentioned the fact that the Rev. DR..
Moses Hoge, who was pastor of the
PRESBYTERIAN Church in this place
for twenty years and left here in 1907
to accept thePresidency of Hampden-
sydney College in Virginia, was the
first teacher of theology in Union
Seminary, near Hamden-Sydney that
is now to be removed to Richmond,
Virginia. He further stated that
since the days of DIR. Hoge's pastor
ate at this place, only one young man
has entered the ministry from this
church, and that was the Rev.J ohm w.
NJ. Clymer, now pastor of the church
at Hancock, Nd, who has been a faith
full and useful minister. He was
reared by pious mother, and devo-
ted to the ministry at his baptism and
was named after that good man, Rev.
