Corner Creek Comments.

news IS scarce just at this time, 80 the
following epstle will not contain yerv
nuch important news, as of course cau
readily be seen by reading. So only few
comments this week concerning thnss
that nave come under our observation.
we notice that our farmers are abonL
through planting cotton seed and upland

From all appearances today it seema
as though the weather will continue To be
fair and dry for some time now. which.
vi course, will please those that are not
finished planting.

Occasionally new correspoudept

now writing for tn, newsy INTELL1aEN-

to the Editor's plea for more correspon-

There are plenty of bright boys and girls
In their respective communities who
could very easily chronicle the news each
week, and by 80 doing it would help
them and Others. too. The county papers
are printed for the people to read and the
editors want the news from all over the
county 80 as to make 1t more bright,
newsy and interesting for their readers.
Wo venture the assertion that the INTEL
LIuENcEn has more local correspondents
who write regularly than any county
weekly in the State, but Its number
ought to be increased and can easily be
done If some ono from each community
that 1. not represented now will take up
their pom and begin. You will never
regret the moments spent in chronicling
the happenings from your section. We
have been writing "1r county newspapers
fer the past ak years. and tue moments
OF time we have spent in getting up the
news from our people have been done
with pleasure. We feel sure that our
little work has not been in vain, but hope
1t will provo beneficial to us, as we know
1t Will In the future. Such work i'm
proves you In penmanship, puts your
mind to thinking as to what Is going 1n
"around and about" in the vicinity of
which you reside. Ths INTELLIaENCBR
has quite O number OF brilliant writer's
who contribute newsy letters each week.

the correspondents. It would give US
delight to have news of Importance to
psr tho INTELLIaENcER weekly. bat as
%c DC not have the news Is the re- son
you don't hear from us oftener. When
anything occurs down In these parts just
rest assured you will heur 1t, for 1t gives
us much pleasure to write to good paper
like the INTELLIaENcER.
Our farmers are now pushing their
business on at rapid rate. They are
! s!most through Planting and feel some
what In better hearts no " than they did
several days previous when the rain con-
} tlnued to fall. They also rejoice over the
fiat.ering prospects of good wheat and
oat crop which, II nothing happens--a
dry Hay ''crust," or something OF the
kinda large crop will be harvested this
year.
The many dear lovers of fruit are re-
joicing over tho fact that there will be an
abundance of peaches and apples to eat
this summer.
Here Of late the newspapers have been
criticising McLau,in for his course that
he Eaw fit to pursue in the Senate. We
don't doubt in the least that he we'll de-
serves some criticism, but when the
Bengal tiger" commences on him and
falsely accuses the Junior Senator of a
whole lot Of things that are in every re-
spect untrue and as abstract in their tones
as could be, then We think it is high time
for everybody else to stop. Any man
that Is guilty of using as much obscene
language and to falsify as Bon Tillman
has done and continues to do ought not
by all means to open his mouth. He h.e
been masquerading as the "bully" OF
Carolina for some time, and it is getting
to be disgusting to good many people
for representative to the United States
Ssnate, elected as man OF pure character
from tho prond old State of South Caro-
lima. to try to boss, dictate and lead the
entire "band" Of representatives from
this State. Tillman would have McLau-
rim to vote and do as he said IL 1t was In
his power to do 30, but thanks to ''curly
headed Johnny" for casting his votes as
he clearly thought to be to tho best intor-
eat OF the South: He will come out all
right yet! Watch and see. TYRo.
