ViruIent Cancer Cured.

Startling proof Of a wonderful adj
vance in medicine is given by druggist
G. w. Roberts of Elizabeth, W. Va. An
old man there had long suffered with
what good doctors pronounced incurable
cancer. They believed his case hopeless
till he used Electric Bitters and applied
Bucklen's Arnica Salve, which treatment
completely cured him. When Electric
Bitters are used to eXpel bilious, kidney
and micrObe positions at the same time
this salye eXerts it's matchless healing
power, blood diseases, skin eruptions,
ulcers and sores vanish. Bitters SOC,

Remember always that every vote
cast for a delegate to vote for the NOM
ination of Robert M. La Toilette is a
vote to retire John G. Spooner from
the United States Senate. Can the
state afford to reward a man of the
caliber of La Toilette by dismissing a
senator and statesman like SpoonerP
There are plenty of other reasons for
refusing La Toilette a second term, but
the one noted above ought to be
enough. Co. Herald.

If the State Board of Control is
actually looking for an efficient man to
fill the place of warden of the state
prison, without regard to his politics
Or place of residence why don't they
put P. B. Lamoreux back. He made
more improvements and managed pri-
son affairs in better shape than any
other man who has filed the place for
years. Even the late warden rushes
into print to claim credit for improve
ments due entirely to ex-warden
Lamroux. Of course Lamoreux is
democrat, and so was DIR. Ballard,
when LamOreux was warden. A home
democrat, if efficient, is preferable to
an imported republican who send out
of the state for men to fill subordinate
positions.

BIG GAIN is SHOWN
IN TAXES TO DATE
sumter's Digest Shows an Increase
of $4,000.
PROPERTY VALUE ON INCREASE
Collector Dunn Completes Work and
Books Show Gain in Property
Values as Compared With 1901
Gains in Every Department.

Sumter county has added very sub
stantially to her wealth within the pas
year. Despite the absence of boon
our property values have steadily ap
preciated, and the tax books show
that we are worth $27, 145 more at pre-
sent than we could show last year
This exhibit IS not bad, though the
gain should have been very consider
ably more, perhaps.
Tax Collector Dunn finished making
up the tax digest for the year yester'
day, and a comparison of figures with
the digest for 1901 indicates a gain Of
$27, 145 for the current year,
According to the 1901 digest the to-
tai vslue of all property IN the county
of whatever kind was $4,707 SS3, That
would have kept us out of the poor
house maybe, but we went to work and
at the end of twelvemonth we point
with pride to this years's valuation
81, 1876, OPS.
And the difference in favor of the
current year Is S27, l45.
And our population is rapidly IN
creasing, too, the adults as well as the
pretty babies. There are, this year,
2, 628 white polls against 1857 last
year, These are white voters; the
colored list also shows very good IN
crease.
We had only 28 lawyers last year
and have 30 this year, but these little
things cant be helped.
There is one more doctor this year
than last, % against %, but the death
rate shows no increase, and all of them
are making money.
The county appears to have spread
out somehow. Last year there were
but 294, 202 acres of land returned for
taxes, while this year the acreage is
3O1, 277. OF course no one renigged
last year in giving in his lands.
And don't Americus grow? Last
year the aggregate value of all city and
town property was $1,530,926 while
this year it is 1886, 200, gain of
S25, 214 for all towns.
For Plains, Andersonville, DeSoto,
Huntington, Cobb and Leslie are all
good little towns in Sumter.
The aggregate value of all buildings,
with the lands upon when located, ID
81, 5S4, 800 It was not this much last
year by $50, 900.
And then we have money The value
of our bank stock last year was but
$685. This year it is $205 200. One
bank has suspended during the past
year, while vigorous youngster, the
Plains Bank, has been established and
IS dong a very good business.
Our money, notes and accounts are
worth S317, 100 at present, against 1888, :
9S5 last year, showing a loss
Stocks of merchandise invoice 1898.
500 this year sgainst 1884, 1877 in 1901.
Last year our manufacturing interests
were worth $3l, 225, while now they are
valued at s42, 700
Our household effects this year are
worth $3.50, 915: our watches and dia-
monds $22, 90G Our live stock is worth
S207 800, and our carriages, wagons,
etc , roll up 1874, 1874. The total of all
these items shows the gain for the year
as indicated, s27, 145.
With the manufactures to be added,
and in the light of present prospects,
the increase year hence should be a
quarter million dollars.
