LINCCLN'S DIAMOND PIN.

Colonel w. n CAGE of Barnwell, S
c., is in possession of a unique relic
in the shape of a diamond pin which
was at one time the property of Abra,
ham Lincoln. and which is the only
piece of jewelry of the kind that he
ever wore. The pin is of the old fash
Toned style of cluster brooches, with a
clasp at the back for the purpose of
securing it to the frilled shirt fronts
worn by gentlemen so years ago. The
center diamond is large, particularly
white one, and it is surrounded by a
number of smaller brilliants.

A Century.

"a century," says the Hartford Cou-
rant, lis not, like year, marked by
the arrival of our planet at one Of thc
steller stations in its journey around
the sun, nor is it divided from the
next century as one day is divided
from another by an interval Of rest.
1t is a period of human invention, de-
pending on the fact that the first man
who learned to count used his 10 fin
gers as standard. Had he not pos
sessed two little fingers a century
would now contain only Ga years. Still
a century is not the less interesting to
us because it has no celestial or as
Economical basis, though it might be
more impressive if bell was to:led
in the heavens to mark it's termina-
ton and prevent all argument as to
the exact time when one century de-
parted and it's heir arrived"

Another combination offer we are

Congressman Talbert of South
Carolina had the honor to pre-
side over the House of Represen-
tatives last Friday. Speaker
Henderson is a Republican stall
wart, and his inviting South
Carolina Congressman to pre-
side created some amazement,
but we hope the incident will not
cause some politician to take ad-
vantage of it and try to make
the people of this State believe
that Talbert has '''Republican
tendencies. Politics has reach
ed that stage in this State, when
a man in Office must be very
careful how treats his opponents,
because if they show disposi-
ton to be friendly, it is taken as
good ground for suspicion of dis
loyalty to party, especially when
there are others who want his
office.

Mrs. Nations admirers are
trying to get her ladyship to
visit the Carolina's to do her
smashing act, but should she
come her antics would be prompt
ly checked by the law. Fanati-
cism may override law, espec-
tally when wrapped in female
attire, in Kansas, but when it
takes such a violent turn it will
not be tolerated in this section OF
the globe. True, there are some
fanatics in this section, but their
fanaticism has not reached the
destructive stage, and will not.
What they cannot accomplish by
persuasion and the ballot they
will endure.

Judge Benet's charge to the
Anderson grand jury with refer

tracts they operate in that sec

the subject of much favorable

The Virginia Carolina Chem

The Virginia Carolina Chem
ical Company, what is familiarly
known as the fertilizer trust, has
made a deal recently which
brings into their control ''The
Charleston Mining and Manufac-
turing Company" a concern
which controlled the best of the
phosphate lands in this State.
This means the lightning of the
trust grasp on the fertilizer in
dustry, and the farmers will be-
come the prey upon which the
yoracious appetite of the trust
will feed. Look out for an in
crease in the price of fertilizers
next year, unless the farmers
take the matter into their own
hands and devise means to, ,thwart
