9Th. OF October. The p si,ion of the
people Is thst the nuisance and the
danger must DO removed, regardless of
cost. IL " re better to insist that the
passenger station be located at some
polDt half u mile from It's present base,
that IL be re. ocated. than that the ex-
citing danger remain.
The argument that certain citizens,
whose identity By the way is scarcely
established, consented to the present
location Is no arg ment. The fact is
q at IL tic town had In the most
formpi way selected this location, il
would none the lees be a public duty in
the face of grave danger TO correct
NJ.
Let 1t be understood hat the people
OF Laurens will ne, er give up this fight,
no matter what action or nOn-act on
msy be taken now, until they are given
a station at which they may leave the
cars Without the peril of being ground
too lnder the wheels.
The Laurens advertiser. (Laurens, S.C.) 1885-1973, 1904-09-28
The Station Danger.

LII the union station at Columbia
wore so placed that passengers would
he compelled to leave trains on the
sIuth side, off from the city proper,
we think a howl would go up.
If in Greenville all carriages and
h"cks were compelled to cross the
aodthern's tracks at the Washington
street station and then cross back,
wouldn't there be q howl?
LII in S~partsnburg passengers left
the trains on the side of the tracks
next to the Spartan mills instead of ON
the city side, how mighty would the
howl be?
So far as we know, Laurens Is the
n town in South Carolina where all
vehicles meeting trains must twice
crcss q network of tracks, to the i'm
minent peril of the public. Moreover at
his Laurens station, they must APP
proach this network of tracks from a
hillside. The space in which the vshi-
Giles must wait is such, that every day il
IS crowded. There is scarcely room
enough for comfortable turning. We
repeat that not in South Carolina is
there another town In which such a
disgraceful and dangerous condition is
allowed to exist. There Is nothing
similar to it In South Carolina. If the
railway commission has no power to
sbate a fragrant, self-evident aud ever
present nuisance and source of peril to
lie, limb and property, then the rail
way commission is o ridiculous piece OF
expensive dead wood itself. We can
see how the commission may have diff,
icnlty in adjusting rates to suit the
public. We n see how it can fail
TO protect the people against actual
and certain danger to life.
The railway officials and the commits
sion are to meet the people here on the

A Matter OF Record.

Considerable adverse criticism has
been caused by a letter of Senator Till
mar OF the negro question and, yet
strange to remark, the expressions OF
the senator are rather more temperate
than those in which he usually in
dulges The Senator appears to have
been unfortunate in his text, the
Statesboro horror, and il his letter had
been bottomed Upon a less brutal
lynching affair it is likely that it would
have occasioned little sharp comment,
however untenable may be some of his
positions.
Meanwhile the question of the sena-
tors reputation for personal courage
has been discussed, introduced by the
Richmond News-Leader and ventilated
hL' the News and Courier, the latter
paper holding that he is undoubtedly q
man of brabery. The Advertiser IL g
gests thad q reference to q published
correspondence which took place be-
tween Tillman and a now deceased
gentleman and Ex-C Confederate soldier,
# Union, printed in the newspapers
in about 1890, possibly 1892, settled this
question once for all. A mans courage,
like a woman's honor is not permitted
10 lapse. Between the gentleman re-
fefred to end Gilman an issue was clean
lyle fined and whether or not B. r. Till
man is q man Of spirit was once for all
as sharply determined as need be to
u discriminating in such things.
Meanwhile whether TIllman is cour-
ageous or not is of little consequence.
lie is a vote-getter sufficient for his
" purposes and what matters it to
Til'man if he get the votes and the sa.-
sry?

HOW TO BE PLUMP.

Most people constantly suffer from
loss OF appetite, especially for break
last, an unpleasant taste In the mouth,
low spirits; irritability with o heavy,
dull headache, biliousness, sick
hepdache, blotches on the skin, lack of
energy and q feeling of WEAKNESS, all
OF which are due to constipation. Con-
~stipation IL the forerunner of indiges-
tion, sluggish liver and nervousness,
and 1t is OF the utmost Importance that
the bowels should be gently regulated
by a reliable a~perient. DIR. Kings
Blood and Liver Pills meet this want.
