GRAND JURY REPORTS.
Railroad Crossings I'm the City-TeIe-
phone and Telegraph Wires.
The following is the report of tn,
Grand Jury presented last week.

To his Honor, r. @. Watts, Presiding
Judge at July Term Of Court General
Sessions for the year 1902:
The Grand Jury beg leave to submit
the following as their final presentment
for this term:
!st. We have passed on all Bills
handed us by the Solicitor.
End. We desire to call the attention
OF the Court to the repeated recon-
mendatiOns of former Grand Juries in
regard to the Railroad crossings at r..
Main st. and at s.. Harper St. We
note that nothing has been done to
carry into effect these recommends
tiOns, and ask that they be enforced by
suitable order.
3rd. We recommend that the rail-
road companies throughout the County
be required to make their rOadbeds,
where a public road crosses same, level
with said public road, so as to render
same more convenient for the passage
of vehicles.
4th. We recommend that where
telephone and telegraph wires, on or
tached from the poles, they be imme-
diately removed from said public roads,
and replaced upon poles SO that public
travel may not be endangered thereby.
In conclusion we thank your Honor,
the Solicitor, and other officers of the
Court for the many cOurtesies extended
the Jury during this term.

ALL HOME PRINT.
The Advertiser will Make
improvement Shortly.
The Seventeenth Birthday OF the Paper
Its Friends i'm the County-Look.
ing to the Future.

The ADVERTISER with to-day's issue
begins its 18th year of life and 18th
under the present owner. Seventeen
years of comfortable living ~convinces
the owner that it has some friends in
the county.
1t is the purpose of the owner to
spend more money on the paper in the
hope of improving it. Beginning next
month the entire paper will be printed
at home. Practically We have had an
all home print paper for years because
the outside pages have been printed in
Greenville and usually contained local
matter but conditions are such now
that an all home print will be justi-
fled.
An all home print paper is not neces-
Sarily the best paper, by any means.
The Abbeville Press and Banner is u
patent outside sheet and yet it ranks
higher than most all home print papers
in the state us q newspaper. Moreover,
some of the sorriest of newspapers are
all home print because no sort of print
Will supply Il vacancy in an EDITORS top
story.
TIE ADVERTISER is to be printed al
together at home because the amount
OF advertising we have demands more
space and because we can now offer u
better newspaper for our readers.
Meanwhile, on this 18th birthday
The ADVERTISER is obliged to the peo-
pie of the town and county for an al
ways generous support. The hope is
ventu,'ed that its friends will continue
this support by telling their friends
about HE ADVERTISER. The ADVER-
TISER is not u hnad-shaker, it's Il
mighty poor advertiser of itself and
II good n we think of everything
that's good in the town and county.
The editor is not in the habit of per-
sonally asking people to subscribe. The
paper speaks for itself. The endeavor
is to print Il paper with news and ideas
as well that vii! keep this county and
her people before the world and be II
worthy representative of their inter
ests and hopes. In this Office we make
the newspaper. If it is worth any
thing we depend ON our friends outside
to extend its influence and circulation
and hope they will talk for it.

Opportunities Plentiful.

Recently THE ADVERTISER pointed
out the opportunity that exists here
for the profitable manufacture Of
bricks. Numbers of other such oppor-
tunities exist. At Pelzer mattresses
are made. In Spartanburg a soap fac.
tory is in operation. There Is also a
broom factory in Spartanburg. The
purchase OF a number of oil mills by
one concern has not stopped the con-
s'ruction of others. Another oil mill
In Laurens might pay. All of these are
suggestions Of what might be done in
Laurens. There Is q demand for
brooms, soap and mattresses and a good
local market. why is IL that so many
men who have a few thousand dollars
capital embark in the already con-
gested mercantile business? There Is
no room for a great multiplication of
merchants and frequently good men
who work we'll In this and other towns
fail through no fault OF their own ex-
cept the original fault of undertaking
the impossible. Such men who become
makers of things which people want and
who devote intelligent efforts to max
ing them usually succeed. The oppor-
tunities in Laurens are plentiful. Have
we the men to utilize them?

THE WORK BEGINS.
Preparing the Ground for
Wares Shoals Mill.
Mr.. N. ID. Dial is President and Treas
urer-Twenty Per Cent Has Been
Called ina Big Concern.

Work began last week on the half
million dollar cotton mill at Wares
Shoals in the way of preparing the
tors have elected N. b. Dial, president
of the Enterprise Bank, president and
treasurer of the mill. G. T.. Shand, of
Whaley 81 Shand, the engineers of the
mill, was here yesterday in conference
with President Dial.
The directors have called for twenty
per cent of the capital stock.
THE ADVERTISER is glad to be able
to announce that President Dial will
continue to live in the city. 1t is a
pleasure to say that the public spirit
and pluck which have led to the found
ing of this great nee at Wares
Shoals are not to be wholly lost % the
growth and development of this town.

abroad in the land. Do you know what
a Traitor is in these oily days? He is
a simple minded man not out for an of
flee who votes-as he pleases. An Arch
Traitor is a Traitor who votes as he
pleases; fill out the blank, brethren,
to suit your taste and fancy.
We have talked a good deal about
ourselves and this is IL apology. We
are q Horrible Example TO the young
and unsuspecting voter. OF such are OBJ
server, Pro Bono Publico and all that
interesting family of voters. We ought
to be pointed out and held up Now.
The ADVERTISER has freely done this
great service to them, to Reform and
to mankind generally. All it costs is a
dollar q year. Now is the time to sub
scribe.

Concerning a Cancer.

The South Carolina ~dispensary has
left a few bitter enemies. These be-
lieve 1t abominable in principle and
worthless In practice. A little forlorn
hope of prohibitionists behold two
thirds Of the 1877 Georgia counties
dry. truly dry, and despise the by
pocrisy which maintains the sale of
whtskey throughout this State. An
other little forlorn hope opposed to a
State whiskey trust as to all other
monopolies sits by and watches 1t, wait
ing for an opportunity to strike.
All these should be pleased. The dis
pensary has no friend in public life
daring enough to protect it from even
worse enemies. While statements,
none Of which we accept as true,
openly circulate that thieves are loot
ing the ~dispensary, not a candidate for
governor ventures to allude to them.
Not one promises to demand by mes
sage to the legislature an investiga-
ton. Not n suggests o measure to
strengthen the law or to stop a leak. All
OF them take it for rue that the dis
pensary system is now a perfect and
holy thing not to be rudely touched or
even talked Of save in whispers.
Perhaps some promise to enforce it
everywhere in the State, which every
other Governor has solemnly promised
and failed to do, but not one utters a
chirp that Reform may be needful
within the %dispensary. Not n risks
offending a d%ispensary official. Dis
pensary officials control votes.
Which pleases the %dispensary. Ifthere
be q cancerous sore in it's bowels, let it
grow. Let it tester and swell. Far be it
from THE ADVERTISER to hint that
any man connected with the concern is
not thrice armed in honesty and a
white robed saint to boot. We believe
that buying and selling liquor is better
than going to Sunday School, provided
you buy and sell a thousand barrels at
a time. Once we did not believe it.
We've been converted. The Tillmans,,
Hayward, Talbert, Zimmerman, Ansel
and "the whole passed. of office seek
ers are sure that the dispensary Is
all right. We believe with them for
the present but may change our minds.
Meanwhile If in the body Of the thing
the cancer fiourishes 1t is no fault of
the great and good friends of the dis
pensary who are running for office.

A LeakY Affair.

Col. j. Q. Marshall, one Of the board,
who lad charge OF the completion Of
the State Capitol in Columbia, insisted
that the contractors had not done their
work properly. He criticized severely
the work OF the architect. He was
over.ruled.
When Col. J. P. Richardson was Gov
ernor, Col. Marshall was Secretary Of
State and custodian of the State House
and grounds. In that day the State
House had better attention than 1t has
had since.
Last week it rained in Columbia and
the waters poured into the offices OF
the State House. The roof was placed
loss than a year ago. 1t satisfied every.
body Except perhaps Col. Marshall,
who, 1t appears, knew what he was
about. But he was overruled.

The Weeping Habit.

According to Col. James Tillman he
saw tears purse down his Uncle Ben's
cheeks when he read SANDERS about
himself. Once upon q time a man went
about this state saying harsh things
about such men as Col. William Mon
roe, Col. A. p. Butler, General John
son Hagood, Senator j. III. Earle, Gem
eral John Bratton and Governor j. p.
Richardson, who are dead, and General
M. @. Butler and Major Tom Wood
ward, who r alive. Nobody ever saw
them shed tears. Which proves only
that some men are weepers and some
are not.
