OFF FOR GALVESTON.
Mr.. Jones Will Help TO Build up the
Devastated CITY.

Mr. Y Jones in forms us that he will leave
Monday evening for Galveston, Texas. He Is
prospecting for busip ess openings In that city,
and will no doubt succeed in getting q good
job.
politics, and now proposes to 60 into active
business wherever he finds q good place.
Mr. Jones Is a native OF this city, and he, like
his father, has always been popular with the
people, His father was elected 10 office sew
erai times, and he at the age of twenty-one
years was elected Sheriff OF the county over
four com petitors Since that time he has held
the various positions OF deputy Sheriff, deputy
Clerk OF the Court, assistant County Auditor,
assistant County School Commissioner, assist
ant County Treasurer, assistant County Com
missioner, journal clerk Of the State Senate,
M Messepger in the United States Senate-the
latter Office he held for four years. He has
been more or less In politics for a quarter Of a
century, and he would advise all young men,
If they would have q competency in old age,
TO eschew politics. because the successful pol
itician must spend his money as he goes. MIR.
Jones Is politician that never drank liquor,
and he gives this as his parting advice: An
officer should never take drink of liquor.
If he drinks with one he must drink with
others, and If he drinks with all his friends,
| IL is only a matter OF time. and a very short
| nancial, physical wreck. A young man had
heller engage as a hod carrier at $50 a month
than take political office at 81. 500 year.
AN old man who has bad his nose TO the

scarce In South Carolina;

correspondent of the Press and Banner and
saws that he will write the West as IL has
never been written up before.

GOOD INSURANCE.
Includes Damages Against Fire, Cy
clone, Wind and Storm.

cIOne, Hlnd anu STORM. ~
Ed itor Press and Banner; >. r
The recent disastrous storm which devastat-
ed Galveston and other sections of Texas, aud
resulting in the loss OF thousands Of lives, and
at least S25 900 600 worthlof property furnish les
some important suggestions In reference to
Insurance which deserve thoQghtfnl oonsid-
roneous Impression, that property should
only be insured against damages by fire.
while but little attention 1s given TO the
damages Of storms and cyclones, which, bring
such destruction In their fury. and over
which. human agency has no control.
AS an evidence Of this, the country full Of
fire Insurance Companies, while scarcely any
OF them write cyclone or wind. storm policies:
and yet statistics show that property suffers
by far greater damages by these, than by fire.
In storm-wrecked Galveston, one Of the
most serious features from financial stand
storm policies held in the entire city: In sup
port Of this statement, Mr.. Charles Janvier
Of the Sun Insuranre Company, Of New
formed Insurance men en- in % the south says:
There were no fires at all during the terri.
BILE storm there, and TO my certain knowledge
the loss TO fire insurance Companies Is moth
Ing. The consequence will be the most epor
nous individual losses known In the history
of American disasters involving property de-
structlon. Doubtless many OF Galveston 8
formerly richest citizens, who were fortu nate
enough TO escape the storm. will find them
selves paupus now. as their vast properties
were not protected by storm Insurance."
In view of these facts. is 1t not the part Of
wisdom, to seek that Insurance which not
only gives protection to property against fire,
but against the more FREQ uent and destructive
elements, wind. storms and cyclones? Such
is the protection offered to property by the
"Abbeville. Greenwood Mutual Insurance
Association" and at a far cheaper rate Of
premium, than that charged by old time
Companies for fire alone. During It's eight
years Of operations, it has offered absolute
ming, cyclones. tornadoes, and wind storms"
and has promptly paid claims and losses
aggregating $4,000. It now carries over half
million dollars OF Insurance, and not In q
single instance has 1t resorted TO the aid OF
the Courts to collect an assessment, or to ad-
just q loss. Our feature deserving special con-
sideration Is, that 1t is q home company, an
Association of the people. for the people, and
by the people. The money paid out is kept
at home, and not dollar is sent out OF the
country to enrich foreign corporations.
This Association tnsures both city and coun.
try property, and any information desired
can be obtained from the township director,
or from the undersigned. Respectfully,
j. r. Blake, Jr,

Is again giving the boys their weekly clearance
card as before. Mr.. Bernau gave entire salts.
men are concerned. and are sure the Com
pany we're pleased, aud his resignation at the
time was voluntary on account OF some
misunderstanding between him and the Gen.
eral Watch Inspector.
However. q representative Of the latter
came here from Chicago to adj lust matters and
everything has been settled To Mr.. Bernau' 3
entire satisfaction, and we understand he was
highly commended at the manner In which
he kept his records and the quality OF the
watch in this Division OF the S. A. l.. which
are the best on any of the old Division OF the
). a. l.. system.
In this connection we may state, that we
believe Mr.. Bernau is one OF the finest work
men In this state. He has had lately ftattering
offers of salary and partnerships In larger
fields, but having some property here, he has
decided to stay Mr. Bernau states that prices
for repairs on watches are lower here then
anywhere else, especially on the finer grade
of work. He says repairs that would cost 10
cents to 81 on 81 watch, would cost at least
81 50 on a ten or twelve dollar watch, as every
thing is much more highly finished In these
watches, and to put cheap material ana low
class work into such watch, especially In
the psrts that usually break In careless treat.
ment, will lower the quality of the watch and
the owner might just as we'll have bought one
Of cheaper grade and saved his money. II
takes manufacturer from 2 to 6 months TO
adjust q medium priced movement, and
clumsy and unskillfull repairs may mar
these Adjustments for which the owner paid
from TO 10 dollars, by simply cleaning the
same.
That Mr.. Bernau understands his business
we know. from the fact that he has just writ.
ten an article for q New York paper on this
subject, for which be received good pay,
and the publishers are very anxious to
get more articles from bis pen, and people are
not so anxious these days to get rid OF their
money unless they get value received.
We will print Mr.. Beruau's article THE
American Watch, and the people that make,
sell and repair them In the near future.
