THE WILLIAMS NEWS, in an ed itorial telling the effects of the visit of President Roosevelt to Arizona, deplores that the only result was a further advertisement of the fact that Arizona furnished the bravest rough riders who scaled the forts on San Juan hill. This fact has long been conceded and needed no further demonstration. We agree with the NEWS that the rough rid CTS have already been surfeited with praise, and it would have been far better if the president could have been impressed with other import ant resources for which Arizona is noted, besides it's ability to furnish brave Bisbee Review.

THE Sun has been in great de- mand the past week; in fact, there have been scores of calls for extra copies which it was impossible to fill, the full edition issued having been disposed of on the day of publication. But the increased de- mand is not to be wondered at, for the Sun was the only paper in the county which printed an ex- tended account of the Presidents day at Grand Canyon, and a yer batim report of his speech on that day.-Coconino Sun.
 We are glad the Sun has been in demand one week, anyway, and will give it as our private opinion that if that worthy paper had devoted the space it did to the presidents speech in showing up the irregulari- ties in county affairs it would have been in greater demand for several weeks past, the same as the NEWS has. And we're not blowing about it, either.

Too Great a Risk.

In almost every neighborhood someone has died from an attack of collie or cholera morbus, often before medicine could be procured or a physician summoned. A re- liable remedy for these diseases should be kept at hand. The risk is too great for anyone to take. Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy has undoubtedly saved the lives of more people and relieved more pain and suffering than any other medicine in use. It can always be depended upon. For sale by all druggists.

Mrs. Earth had for years been a resident of Albuquerque, N M., where news of her death will cause sorrow to many friends. At this time we have no knowledge of the proposed disposition of the re- mains. To the sorrowing relatives the NEWS extends it's most sincere sympathy in their loss of one so near and dear.

Senator ). Il. Mayfield.

The Bamberg papers announce the
fact that Hon. S. G. Mayfield will give
up his practice of law and devote his time
to his farm and to stock raising. Mr..
Mayfeld is admittedly one of the fore
most lawyers in the State. His fees have
been fortunes in themselves and he took
a pride in his profession. His return to
farming means that he considers that
calling a noble one and worthy Of the
best talents that the Creator gives. 1t
means that there is money in farming in
this section when done right. Mr.. May
field has been as successful a farmer as
he has been lawyer. He was always a
leader in every agricultural enterprise,
always the first man to try experiments
that promised well for the farm, and
always gave to his neighbors the benefits
of those experiments.
By devoting his attention to stock rails
ing he will lead in the development of an
enterprise that South Carolina has long
been in need of. Heis we'll equipped for
the work and he will undoubtedly make
a success of it. The State will get the
benefit of Mr.. Mayfeld's enterprise, and
while there are plenty of good lawyers to
maintain the dignity and honor of the
legal profession, the profession of agricul-
lture needs such recruits very badly.
There are few of them. This section of
the state furnishes many more examples
of men of this sort in agriculture than all
the rest of the state combined. Recruits
are hailed with delight by all who recog-
nize the fact that the farm is the solid bed
rock foundation of the people and what
ever helps the farm and the farmer and
dignifes and elevates them will benefit
the State.-Florence Times.

His Big Boots.

AS sergeant was bawling out his
orders in barracks in Dublin and watch
ing the line of feet as the new recruits
endeavored to obey the word OF command,
he found to his astonishment, that one
pair of feet, more noticeable on account
of their extra large size, never turned.
Without taking his eyes off those feet,
the sergeant bawled out second order:
"Ahout face"
He could see that all the feet except
those he watched turned in obedience.
Rushing up to the owner, a little fell
low, he seized him BY the shoulder, shout
ing:
HWhy don't you turn with the rest? ?"
81 did," replied the trembling recruit.
"You did, eh?" Well, | watched your
feet and they never moved" -.
'It's the boots they gave me, sir" said
the poor fellow. "They're so large that
when l turn, my feet turn inside of
them"

NaSt'S First Hunt.

\ good shot and an entertaining story
teller, the late tom" Mast was welcome
during the shooting season at 4 number
of country houses in England. But his
first invitation was i bitter lesson to him,
simply because he failed to observe the
sharp differentiation between hunting
las she is known" in England and in this
country. On board ship Mast made the
acquaintance of a Hertfordshre man, 4;
master of the hounds near St. Adams.
Mast received and promptly accepted an
invitation to hunt. Il never felt quite
so insignificant on my life he used to
say in telling the story, ''as when | ar
rived at the rendezvous and saw that
brilliant meet, the men in their scarlet
coats and the jolly looking women on
their fine mounts, and there was l,
trudging along the road with game bag
and gun"

the United States Senate, creating the i'm
preston upon the world that our very
leaders and lawmakers are violent and
lawlcss men. The other day tragedy
occurred in Columbia. Let us not pre-
Judge the case Of the individual; let the
courts take care of that But the chief
actor in that tragedy was apublic official,
the Lieutenant Governor Of the State,
and as such his act invites and demands
the severest public censure. Within five
days he would have laid aside his robes OF
Office and could have wreaked revenge as
private citizen But no. Our shame
must be advertised with all the accesso-
ries of high dramatic effect. Therefore
he walks from the Senate hall into the
streets of the Capital and, drawing a con-
cealed weapon from his person, Stays an
unarmed enemy in cold blood. Those are
facts which no jury's verdict can annul;
and in deeds like these, wrought even by
the highest of our officials, the t1agrancy
of crime has reached its very acme, and
the blood of the most sluggish patriot is
stirred with shame for the old Palmetto

house. \ jury was Immediately sum-
moncd to hold an inquest and, after
almost y days investigation, Richard

Shot with was found in the bed between

tale about the gun being secreted in the

not know the gun was in the bed, and he
said that she put it in the bed The
daughter of the deceased told still another
story, stating that when she heard the
shooting she jumped up and saw her
mother lying on the floor, and about that
time Sweat raped on the back door to
let him in.
The negroes collected in squads last
night, threatening to lynch Sweat, but up
to this writing Sweat is still alive and he
will be carried to angeburg this morn

In the death of n G. Gonzales South
Carolina loses one of her bravest and
most patriotic sons. He dared to 40
right whatever the odds and whatever
the cost. As an editorial writer and
citizen his best efforts and energies were
given for the upbuilding of Columbia
and South Carolina, and while we often
disagreed with him as to methods, there
was no questioning his sincerity OF pur-
pose. Personal aggrandizement or SELF
seeking he scorned, but with single
purpose to better the State and city ne
loved so we'll, he followed the path OF
duty though often misunderstood, mis-
represented and maligned. lie was one
of the strongest writers of vigorous Eng
lish in the South, and he never beat about
the bush. One method only was his: the
direct one. He was terror to evil doers
in political and public circles, and his
enemies of this ilk will rejoice at his
death. We, in common with many Of the
best citizens of the State, deplore his
death and extend sincerest sympathy to
the bereaved ones. His work was one
sadly needed in South Carolina, and we
trust, for the good of the State and its
people, that brave heart and ready pen
will take it up.

The Home Friend of the
Farmer and His Family.

After the labors and tolls Of the summer time,
and harvesting of crops in the early autumn,
many of our farmers, their wives, daughters,
and sons, find themselves in condition Of
health demanding careful attention if suffering
is to be avoided later on. Many experience
kidney trouble in some form; with some the
liver is torpid; there is bilousness, nausea, and
vomiting, with loss of appetite and depression
of spirits. Thousands who have been exposed
to cold, damp winds and rains while toiling ii
the harvest fields, now feel the twinges Of
terrible rheumatism; others run down BY
worry, overwork, and irregular dieting, are
tormented with the pangs of dyspepsia.
To the thousands of run down, sckly, anc
half dead men and women in farm homes W.
recommend with all honesty and confidence

restore strength to the weak body and vigor tc

Exchange of Compliments.

The village sexton, in addition to being
a gravedigger, acted as stonecutter, house
repairer and furniture mover.
The local doctor, having obtained a
more lucrative appointment in another
county, employed the sexton to assist in
his removal
When it came to settling up accounts
the doctor deducted an old contra account
due by the sexton. He wrote at the same
time, objecting to the charge made for re-
moving his furniture:
"If this was steady, it would pay much
better than gravedigging."
The sexton replied:
"Indade, Oh wud be glad to have a
steady job; gravediggin' is very slack
since you left"

Oil Fire in Charleston.

CHARLESTON, S. c., January ia fire
broke out in the warerooms of the Stan
dard~Oil company near the city's eastern
water front tonight. Forty-three barrels
of oil were burned and three firemen were
badly but not fatally injured by the flames.
Many of the barrels exploded causing
great CONSERVATION. A ten-thousand
gallon iron tank about twenty feet from
the burning building held 5000 gallons of
gasoline and the fear of its catching fire
was great.
The people near BY deserted their homes
and intense excitement prevailed in that
part of the city. Had it exploded the loss
of life and property would have been
very great. The fire is now under control.

The Mother Girl.

She is not bud of fashion, nor butter
fly of style,
And there are no bogus trimmings in the
makeup of her smile;
She needs no artificial fixing to enhance
her girlish charms,
And god would 60 in raptures DER the
plumpness of her arms
As she washes up the dishes and the min
utes speed along,
Dancing gaily as they pass her to the
music of her song.
In her eyes soft impression of pure
maternal love
That must surely be the envy of those
angels up above.
She's the JOY of every home
Underneath yon arching dome
Till she gives her hearts affection to an
other
Lucky he who wins the true,
Loving, loyal maiden who
Tries to lift the daily burden from her
mother.
When the weekly toll is over, and she
dons her Sunday gown,
There is not pampered darling on the
earth can turn her down
In the winning game OF beauty; not
fashionable pearl,
Though ablaze with costly, jewels can
outshine the mother girl.
Sweet simplicity is noted in her unassum-
ing grace,
And she needs no color touching to put
bloom into her face,
For the blood of health is coursing
through her veins, her rosy blush
Isn't made for the occasion by the decora-
tive brush.
She's the very fairest gem
In our beauty diadem.
Search creation and you cannot find an
other
On the face of all the earth
That possesses half the worth
Of the girl who lifts the burden from her
