FACTS.

FACTS.
The editor of the Advocate would
ike to say few words to the citizens
OF Batesburg by way Of showing to
them in what position they stand to-
ward the general advancement OF the
town they live i'm. 1t appears, with
very few exceptions that all of them
are not trying to pull in unision with
one another, but each and every one
appears to have his own axe to grind,
and little does it matter exactly how it
is done, just SO IT is DONE.
When the Advocate came to Bates
burg, now some two years ago, the lit
tie village could hardly be dignified by
the appelation of town and was hardly
known beyond the borders of its own
county. Today Bateaburg has made
herself known in nearly every State in
the Union and the Advocate each
week visits more than twelve hundred
homes with its tidings of Batesburg,
South Carolina, Wou'd this toTn be
half what it is today if the Advocate
was not published here? Would the
town have been able to vote for bonds
for water and lights? Would the town
have had trals service such as it now
has? No. a dozen times no. 1t " ould
have yet been the still, dead town that
it was before the advent of Light in
the clothing of the Batesbnrg 4dvo-
cate
Open your eyes, my readers and see
what our town is today compared with
the village it was not more than five
years ago, and yet how much more
prosperous could you all MAKE it, by
only putting your shoulders to the
wheel snd unite in every effort to the
advancement and progress of our place.
But let us see the exact state of things
as they now stand. This medium, by
which yOu all have received benefit,
has had to fight and fight and push
and push itself before you are willing
even to recognize the support it has
given you. And what is the condition
today? The paper Is NOT supported by
prTsIng merchants of Columbia and
Augusta. 1t is these men that IRE sup
porting the Advocate and in great
measure the Advocate suppol ting them.
There is not lay that passes that our
townspeople do not take their money
away to one of the above mentioned
places ard sreno it for goods that they
do not know are right here under their
own noses and which they pass from
day to day.. They have no means OF
finding out, as the merchant is satisfied
To nt F.,,
dow and let the balance of his
stock be inquired for. He can not af-
f0rd to advertise in the Advocate. the
paper which has made his business
What 1t Is. Oh no, he would rathe,
walk out 10 the station with his hands
MS pockets (as his store has no
buyers) and watch his possible
customers go off TO spend their
money elsewhere. Don't you think il
speaks badly for our townspeople not
to show spirit in behalf OF Bates
bnrg's advancement? Don't you think
1t looks as if you are trying to kill your
benefactor? Don't you think that you
are not showing the right spirit: Don't
you think that you are standing in
your own light? and lastly, don't You
ses that you are losing trade by hiding
your goods in your store so that no
one knows what you have to Offer them.
and that to sayea few dollars YOU are

RYDALE'S TONIC
A REAL CURE FOR
MALARIA

1t has recently been discovered that
the germs that produce Malaria, breed
and multiply in the intestines and from
there spread throughout the system
by means of the blood. This fact ox-
plains why Malaria is hard to cure by
the old method of treatment Ouinine,
Iron, ETC., stimulate the nerves and
build up the blood, but do not destroy
the germs that cause the disease.
Rydale's Tonic has a specific effect
upon the intestines and bowels, freeing
them from all disease breeding mi
crobes. 1t also kills the germs that
infest the veins and arteries 1t drives
from the blood all poisonous matter
and makes it rich and healthy.
RYDALE'S TONIC is a blood
builder, nerve restorer, and Malaria
destroyer. Try it, it will not disap-
point you.

st. Petersburg. Sept. "a fbe ab-
sence of detailed reports fro,d the seat
Of war despite the important character
OF events that are believed to be de-
veloping around Mukden, leads TO the
suppostion that General Kuropatkin
may after all not seriously contest the
japanese advance and that the long ex-
pected battle at Mukdcn may turn out
to be merely rear guard action upon
a large scale
General Sakharoff reports that the
Japanese army is moving from Bent.
siaputze toward Flu pass, village six
miles northeast Of Mulden and near
the right bank Of the Hun river. The
river at this point is shallow. and
probably for this reason the locality
has been selected by the Japanese for
crossing III the Japanese succeed in
gaining a foothod at Fu pass General
Kuropatldn's position at Mukden will
be insecure, as the Japanese will from
thence be able TO threaten the Russian
line Of communications Fu pass is
only twenty miles north Of Bentsia-
putze but &C the present rate of prog.
ress the Japanese will probably occu-
py four or five days in traversing Il.
The Russian force south of Mukden
is believed to consist OF only one army
corps which is acting as rear guard
and is not intended TO offer serious
resistance to the Japanese advance.
Disposition Of oyama's Forces.
The Russians are using war balloons
southeast Of Mukden for the purpose
OF observing the movements OF the
Japanese in that direction. The line
Of outposts established by the Japa-
nese is so effective that not even the
Chinese have been able TO penetrate it.
1t is impossible therefore 10 say def
nitely how Marquis Oyama has dis
posed his forces. 1t is believed that
General Kurokrs army stretches from
Bensihu TO Bentsiaputze, and the
armies OF Generals Oku and Nodzu
from Yentai along the highroad and
railroad TO Shahepu. sixteen miles
south Of Mukden. while a fourth army
is moving from Dziantchan across the
