The Kfdnapped Missionary

Miss Stone, missionary TO Bulgaria, is still
In the hands OF brigands. A large sum OF
money has been raised for her release, but up
to this time. we are not informed as to what
will be the final outcome. In case she falls
to convert them to her way Of thinking on re
iigious matters, aud in the event OF failure TO
pay the money demanded, they may put her
to death.
Speaking for this newspaper, we hope tha'
good may come of the recent troubles In
China, as well as from the capture OF Miss
Stone.
The matter of religious federation or intol-
Grafton demands diplomatic action on the
part ofthe different governments, and def
mite understanding should be had as to the
rights and privileges OF religion lists, other
wise serious trouble may arise.
In the face Of the act OF the United States
In refusing the Chinese the right to land on
our shores, 1t seems strange to US that they
would allow our people to land there. The
Chinese should not grant our people greater
than we grant to them.
The Chinese are not allowed to come here
to dig bitches, TO wash our clothes, or to Till
our farms, much to less to propagate their
peculiar religious tenets. Then, why should
we be allowed to 60 to China?

AbbeyfIle's Need.

Abbeville is now preparing to build fur
niture factory, and we have no doubt that
other Industrial enterprises will follow.
To supply power for these industries, name
ly The cotton mill, the oil mill, the ginneries'
the furniture factory, the electric lights. and
other enterprises which need power, some OF
our water powers should be developed. when
electricity could be transmitted to the city.
If a suitable water power can be had. the de.
mand for developed power will be equal to the
supply, aud the profit, 1t seems to us, would
be assured. Even ifthe industrial enterprises
already In existence refused to buy 1t, new
enterprises would spring up to use IT.

The Chester Lantern roaintalns that the use
OF "c,erks" as a verb Is right, anu claims
usage as authority. When questions as to
the correctness OF language are to be decided,
the best or the highest authorities are con-
suited. Light comes from above and not
from below.
The fact remains that there is no recog.
rized authority for the word "clerks" as a
verb. John Jones may be clerk, but John
Jones never ''clerks." There Is no such verb
as "clerks," and educated people who have re-
gard for their manner Of speech, do not 80 use
that word, except when they are caught nap
ming, as was our educated and cultured friend
who fell into error last week.
