Rev. +. w. Sloan,

Rev. T. w. Sloan, Of Greenville, during bis
vacation, took little time TO spend in Able.
Vile among his old friends and admirers. He
came in on Saturday morning and remained
until Monday. His visit gave much pleasure
TO bis friends, and it is hoped that he enjoyed
his visit. On Sunday he attended services al
his old church.
We learn. not from him, that Greeuville
may guard we'll her interests. Mr.. Sloan is sc
popular preacher that other laurels will YET
crown his brow. He will be called to other
and even greater fields than Greenville. A
man OF his ability and his personal magnet
ism has not reached the limit of his useful
ness or the zenith OF his glory. Mr.. Sloan ID
no ordinary man, and his future achieve
ments will be measured by the standards OF
the ablest and the best AS Abbevile was no,
his abiding place, so Green Vile is only stop
ping place for him as he reaches forward to
the mastery Of greater and better things
Greenville may we'll be proud Of him. Other
laur els will yet press his brow and other vic
tories will yet crown his work in the cause o.
the Master.

Ought te Open New Streets.

Although the cotton mill pays large pei
cent Of the taxes OF the city, yet that insti'
tuition receives next to none Of the benefits
which the citizen receives. For instance
The mill village Is the most populous part O.
the city. and we believe 1t is true tnat in tha,
populous section of the city, there is not laid
out on the city map foot OF street or side
walk.
1t has been contended that the mill town
was on private property, and this Is held an q
| reason TO relieve the city from the duty and
obligation TO open new streets where they are
needed.
AL, the land in this county is owned by pri
vate individuals, even rs the mill owns the
land on which the mill village is set.
When new streets or new roads are needed
1t Is the duty of the proper authorities tc
open thep. If the people need such streets
or roads terms are made with the owners ol
the land over the new thoroughiare is TO be
opened, and IT is Just az much the duty OF
the city to open and light the needed streets
10 the mill village as 1T Is open and light the
streets In other pal Is Of the town.
There in no known reason why the town
should not open and work the needed streets
In the mill village and we can by no method
Of reasoning, see how the mill people can be
denied the benefits OF the needed streets
Why discriminate against the largest tax
payer? why deny as good streets and as gooo
lights 10 the mill operatives as are furnished
10 other parts OF the town?
By no equitable reasoning can the denial
be justified in equity. The operatives are at
much entitled TO streets and lights as the
most favored citizen.
If, 1t be proper to deny streets and lights to
the mill people, why not deny them the ad
vantages Of the public school system The
one proposition Is as fair as the other.
The talk OF the mill village being private
property is merely a joke. The town takes
charge OF those people when the services OF
Il policeman are needed, and when taxes are
levied upon them they must pay.
lfthe school authorities would do their full
duty good school house would be built for
those people. They need streets. lights and
schools too.

We Dissent.

We cannot agree with all this tommy-rot
about the evils Of trusts or corporations when
no specific grievance can be named. The
great corporations, or trusts. (the words seem
TO be used interchangeably,) do more for the
public welfare than g million separate atoms
OF citizens. They build all the great industrial
enterprises, and give US the best shipping in
the world, and as for railroads, they are not
to be compared with the little short roads
and hopper trains OF former years.
Before the era Of great things the cost Of 9
trip and the time necessary to 60 to Charles.
ton, was about as great as 1t is now to New
York.
Corporations pay big salaries to skilled
labor, and for brains they pay the highest
price.
We would be sorry to see the great corpora
tions dissolved into little companies.

Stocks In Abbeyflle.

The stocks In the two banks In Abbeville
have settled down, and are at home, SO TO
speak. And no question as to them is ever
raised.
The great number Of former owners Of the
cotton mill stock, has been much reduced,
and now those who hold stock are pretty well
loaded up. Satisfied with their holdings they
are not reaching out, and II they were doing
30, they would not find much of 1t for sale.
In Eureka hotel stock there is absolutely
nothing doing. We have not heard of a sin.
gle transfer Of either class Of stock In that in
stitution. In the case OF the Eureka the
thoughts are generally absorbed In the beau.
ty Of the building, and the superb manner
in which 1t is kept by Capt. McFall. AS
fnality, their thoughts might some time
reach the point OF wondering how large a
dividend the institution will pay. Aside
from the financial question, even the moss
backs and outofdate old men are taking
pleasure In contemplating Abbeville's newest
venture. The Eureka has bad good run OF
custom from the first day Of its opening.
Until quite recently there was some interest
in the holdings OF the stock in the warehouse
Even before the doors of the Institution were
placed on hinges, the stock Of the corpora.
tion began to change hands, and 1t is perhaps
the only institution in Abhevilie whose stock
has not changed hands below par. The COM
petition in buying the stock made 1t lively
and finally the stock reached S120 per share,
when a deal was made whereby one share
holder became the owner OF q majority of tb e
stock. Since then there has been little or NO
enquiry for the stock, and some Of 1t has
been offered at par, with no takers.
Perhaps more interest has been felt by
shareholders and others as to the stock Of the
furniture factory. Quite number Of shares
have changed hands within the last six
months, but just now but little has been done
in that line. Much Of 1t has changed hands,
but at figures at par, or little less. as the
needs OF the seller may have been more or
less pressing. or possibly from an indefnable
anxiety for change or speculation. Stock can
now be had at q shade less than par.
The company made in the spring most ex-
cellent showing as to results up to that time,
and this gave temporary boom to the stock
from which 1t has nearly recovered.

Water Protection Against Fire.

The town and the cotton raill seem TO be
getting along as nicely as two peas in pod
and this pleasant condition might be taken
as indicative OF future harmony and good
will. The cotton mill and the town realize
that 1t Is better for all parties to be friends
rather than anything else.
In conversation with President Harris he
expressed more than willingness 10 take
one step further In cemen ting the ties between
the mill and the town. He would gladly
join the town in Joining the watermains o.
the town with the great pump and the in
exhaustable supply OF water at the cotton
mill. In the mill reservoir there are always
millions Of gallons of water, into which the
creek always ruus and keeps up the supply
The immense boilers of the mill are always
hot, with not less than forty pounds Of steam
The valves could be opened and the steam o
the powerful boiler could be turned on In q
minute and stream OF water could be turned
on to remain until the fire was extinguished
or course. in this we have no sort OF reflec
tion on the very satisfactory conduct of the
water works. The city water is all that could
be desired or expected, but the idea that we
would emphasize Is the fact that two sources
OF water supply is obliged to be better than
one. In cases Of necessity the cotton mill Ii
perfectly willing to lend the use OF it's power
ful pumps and It's inexhaustibe water sup
ply. A necessity might arise at any time
AS everybody knows, machinery takes the
most inopportune time to break down, and
We are all acquainted with the fact that fire
breaks out when and where least expected.
AS matters now are, II the water mains are
flushed and the standpipe is emptied, there it
81 time when we could not fight fire. and the
town would be at the mercy of the consum.
ing element.
By the expenditure Of q few hundred dol
lars the water mains could be connected with
the pumps and the reservoir at the cotton
mill. Is 1t not the part Of wisdom to make
the expen nditure, 80 that there may never be
a minute when we are without the possibil
ity OF all the water that may be needed.

Let on the Light.

The negro convention in Columbia last
week made, full and explicit expression on
the subject Of white men lynching negroes.
That subject having been fully exploited, we
hope that the next meeting Of this same
organization may discuss az thoroughly the
assaults by negros upon white women. II
we knew what these selfconstituted advisers
thought oi the crime OF assault, it might clear
up matters. Another phase Of the question
is, why do negroes always assault white
women and not women of their own race?

dence In the integrity OF every member OF

pie 10 delightful to contemplate. Live
wide awake merchants like King g. Martin,
can leave stacks Of their goods ION the side
walk In front of their store during the silent
watches OF the night when policemen are on
duty In other parts Of the town, the fact just
as we'll be known TO the world that this Is a
town of honest people who may be trusted at
all times. But for the fact that some Of their
neighoors protestedi against the Innovation,
1t is possible that Messrs. King & Martin
would by this time have thrown away their
store key. Better men never went to any
town, and none ever showed more confidence
In community than to leave stacks OF buck
cts on the side walk during the night.
