sEHEcKs NEW HOTEL.
The 0conee Inn Now Occupies Its New and
s. Handsome Building.

Seneca, December 7.-C. III. Ellison
hnished moving Saturday evening, and
now has one of the finest hostleries in
Upper Carolina. A building Just com
plsted, three stories high, with all mod
erh hotel facilities, equipped throughout
WITH electric bells, with bath adjoining
each room. Water-works are provided
through the building, with sanitary ar
rangements throughout.
The building in appearance is one of
the prettiest for hotel in the Piedmont
section. On the first floor, the office
is entered first, then one passes down
through hall and enters the large and
spacious dining room, which is well
lighted and heated and handsomely
decorated, with a number of beautiful
pictures hanging on tho walls, which
makes the scene a lovely one. There are
several large sample rooms on the first
floor for the convenience Of the travelling
men. About SO bed rooms are in the
first and second stories, finished in
pretty suits.
The interior work of the building Is
very attractive, which speaks we'll for
the skilful work of those employed.
Everything throughout is specially ar
ranged for the convenience and comfort
OF guests. The stairway is very con-
veniently arranged.
During the building of the hotel the
work was under the supervision of Con
Tractor L. D. johnson, a well-known man
in the Piedmont section.
Mr.. Ellison will retain the name
fOconee 1nn," as the travelling public is
accustomed to it. and with it he has
built up good trade.
Mr.. Ellison Is known throughout the
Southern States for his excellence as a
hotel man and accommodations to the
travelling public. He is due special
credit from the entire community for
the erection of this handsome building,
which is q credit to the State. AS
travelling man said only day or so ago,
"Ellison is one of the best hotel men
have ever come in contact with. He
shows an interest in all who atop with
him and provides special attention for
US. And he deserves credit from the
travelling public as we'll as from the COM
munity for the long and muoh-needed,
np-to. date hotel, which your town now
has,"
Mr.. Ellison's handsome new building
does great credit to himself and our
town, and he deserves the thanks of the
community in general for this manifesto
tion of enterprise and interest in our
material welfare. U.K.

SOUTHERN FARMERS SAFE,

The Southern farmer who has cotton
to market is indeed fortunate. The
price now fluctuates between IL and 13
cnnts per pound, and it is scarcely proba-
bic that it will be lower at any time, for
the present crop, than IL cents. For this
reason it is a safe policy for those who
can do so to hold their cotton for a very
probable rise in price. We base this
opinion on the many reports as to size of
crop, insufficient supply to meet the de-
mand for manufacturing purposes, and
the general admission of the mill men
that the price will range higher than at
- the following as fair specimens of the
feelings of prominent cotton firms as to
the government report and the price of
the staple:
NJ. NJ. Thomas & Co., Dallas, Texas
"Sellers are asking IL cents. Very little
left to sell. We paid 11s cents last night
(Friday), basis middling."
j. S. Bache & Co.: "We look for de-
creasing volume of receipts, for increas-
ing bullish sentiment as the public real
ize what cotton crop of round ten
million bales really means, and conse-
quently we confidently expect still higher
prices"
Mcintyre & Marshall: eve do not ex-
pect to see any really serious break oc-
cur; for oven if the Government's report
underestimate the crop 800, 900 to 500,0 900
bales, that does not remove the proba-
bility that VIC shall witness sharp compe-
tition from spinners for the balance of
the crop and q repetition of last season 8
cotton cotton famine next summerp'
Report from New Orleans firm: "The
Government cotton crop report of De-
cember ends the controversy as to the
size of the present crop 1t is wholly in
adequate to the worlds requirements,
and barring usual fluctuations, cotton will
go to prohibitive prices this season.
Report from Memphis firm: "Some of
the largest buyers of spots in this mar
ket are recalling their agents in the
country towns throughout Arkansas,
Tennessee and Northern Mississippi, on
account of being no cotton to sell at any
price,"
From these and numerous similar
daily reports, taken in connection with
the very apparent shortness of crops, we
think the holding of the remainder by
the farmer for the rise that seems in
evitable to be very advisable. The man
who raises the crop is justly entitled to
whatever increase there is in the price.

FOR CRIME AND SORROW.

South Carolina has placed her annual
holiday order for liquors, ETC., and will
be prepared. to serve her citizens with
the best, medium and the meanest. Last
week the following purchases were au.
thorized by the directors of our "moral
institution:
0,010 cases of fine liquors.
2,436 barrels of medium grade liquors
Gil barrels Tx corn whiskey.
6 cars various grades of beer.
100 cars assorted bottles.
cars assorted demijohns.
20 boxes tin foil.
Were it possible to bring into parallel
column the crines, heart-aches, tears
deprivations, suffering and cries OF
anguish to this outlay of liquors, il
would make showing at which the old
Palmetto State would gaze in horror.

MERCHANTS of Charleston are sendinR
large shipments Of shoes to Summerville
by express as a matter of economy, the
freight rate between these points being
33 cents per 100 pounds, while the ex.
press rate is but 80 cents. This, OF
course, is an isolated case, and 1t is rare
indeed when largo shipments can be
made by express cheaper than by freight
Since the adoption Of the 100-pouud rate
as minimum package charge on ship
ments by freight, 1t is frequently the
case that packages weighing from 10 u
express than by freight, and the time
saved by the former mode of shipment

Armstrong shot his cousin, with whom
he was in love, October %, in Natasulga,

murder, wrote q note to his mother an
,nounoiEg his intention of killing his
cousin and himself. Armstrong is son

BIG ROW ABOUT NOTHING.

Because eight students of the Georgia
School of Technology saw at to attend
the foot ball game between the teams of
the University of Georgia and Auburn
College in preference Co witnessing the
South Carolina '.Teoh" scramble on
Thanksgiving Day, tho Student body" of
the School of Technology has risen en-
masse and denounced the eight offending
students as "disloyal to tbs Tech.," Sun
sportsmanlike," and the severance of
their connection with the institution es
students has been peremptorily de-
manded. IF thoy were not with u.s."
the "student body" argues, "they were
against us--aud they must leave"
Well! Has foot ball become the great
and all-important "study" of the uni
versities and colleges of to-dayP If q
student must be driven from one institu-
ton because he has old friends on the
foot ball team of another, and chooses to
witness the athletic prowess of these old
friends rather than the game in which
his own institution is particularly con-
cerned, then indeed it begins to appear

tauce attached to the foot ball attain
ments of the "student body" 1t is all
right and proper for athletic sports to
have place-and prominent place
in college life, but it seems to us "the
student body" of the Georgia School of
Technology has gone beyond the limit.
After long preamble, in which the
charge of disloyalty, ETC., is made, based
on the fact that these eight students
failed to witness the "Tech" game, the
following resolution was adopted:
''Resolved, by the student body of the
Georgia School of Technology, on this,
the 30th day of November, 1908, That all
students of the said institution who at
tended the said game, Georgia Auburn)
be asked to resign from the said institu-
tion within forty-eight hours from the
time of the adoption of these resolutions,
and upon failure to do SO will accept the
Consequences"
''Resolved, by n body of asses," etc.,
would have been beginning more in
keeping with the general tone of the res
olutions as a whole. The School of
Technology will doubtless lose the most
valuable portion of it's 'student body"
should the "unsportsmanlike" portion
be forced to leave
