There is ground for his complaint but
how are YOU going to help it, without
oroanization on the part of the farmers.
AZ such evils can be remedled II the
farmers will go at it right.
The trustees of school district l! at a
meeting held last Friday decided to sell
the New Castle and Wayside school
honses. and build first class modern
school house, and provide it with Ip-to-
6ate equipment. This is step in the
riGht direction. and we wish the peo-
pie of New Town much success IN theIr
efforts to encourage education IN thelr
vicinity.
If the merchants OF this town are 60
ing to sit on logs with thelr mouths
wide open and wait until the rail- roao
commission birl comes along and drops
in a rate on cotton equal to sumter,
thev are liable to die Of lock-law. II
thev want to get this rate they must
show that they are alive, and can ask
for their rights like men who want TO
build up and hold a trade that. com
petitive market is trying to take away.

It is not at all necessary for Us to say
word for the Levi Brothers in sum
ter, their advertisements speaks more
eloquently than we can. They are
urging the farmers to get together,
and they promise to stick TO them
The Levi Brothers are without 4 doubt
headquarters for farmers: they pay full
prices for cotton. and the farmers car
ry it to them knowing before they start
from home that full market value
awaits them. Their stock OF merchan-
disc was never so large and they are
selling goods as cheap as any house III
the State. They are next TO the Court
House
