Darlington Aftermath.

Some of the young ladies who went
to Darlington say that Chief of Police
Bradford was a splendid advertise
ment for Sumter over there on the
Fourth Of July. Some of them even
intimated that he was the handsom-
est man in Darlington, and that those
new shoulder straps attracted the at
tention Of quite a, number of people.
Now, which was it, the shoulder
straps or the man? Both, no doubt.
Any how he did some mighty big talk
ing for Sumter.
Officer W. W. McKagen could
scarcely keep from collecting street
tax in Darlington. He saw so many
Sumter people over there, that he kept
thinking that he was in Sumter most
of the time. Health Officer Reardon
saw about three cart loads of water
melon rinds in the street opposite the
depot and arrested the Daily item re-
porter and two other Georgians be-
fore Chief Bradford and Officer Nc
Kagen could stop him. The chief is
authority for the statement that the
Sumter officers drank nothing strong
er than red lemonade, but h. says
that they drank a sprinkling cart full
of that. Outside Of the acid in tll,,
lemonade (Which no doubt was the
principal ingredienD it was not strong
enough to hurt two-day-old baby.

tendent Of Streets White to enter any

did not match their complexion nor
match the color of the city carts
which are painted green in Sumter.
Now, that should not have been said.
Watch Darlington get back and say
that green is emblematical of the dis
position Of Sumter people. Well, any
how, We may not paint everything
green, but we do manufacture here in

at ALL Sumter certainly elected a
queen in ell that the word implies.
But seriously speaking have been at
tracted by the number of pretty wo
men and girls over here today from
Sumter, and when you begin to inquire
who, is that lady and who is this lady,
and on every hand you are told that
a majority Of the ladies you ask about

the Sumter band play, and see the
Sumter automobiles whirl by full Of

really has. Also Emmett Reardon on

IF the Sumter band and orchestra
is ever allowed to disband for lack Of

that they have made the biggest mis-
take of their lives,'' says The Man

Moore has been making his headquar-

been given work on several occasions,
but each time showed a lack Of ap-

work himself but tried to get other
employees Of the cotton mill to quit
their work. He soon became a nui-

mill warned him to keep away, but he
failed to heed their warning and as

FARM FOR SILVER FOXES.
Rare Alaska Animals to Be Bred For
Their FuPs.

Joseph j. Harrison Of Philadelphia,
who is connected with fur corpora
ton. is in Livingston, Mon, for the
purpose, he says, of studying the eli
matte conditions Of Park county with
a view to establishing a farm for the
breeding of silver foxes in this locality,
says a Livingston special dispatch to
the ST. Louis Republic. He says the
company he represents already has
such a farm. in Alaska but the com
Dauy wishes to experiment with the
fur Of animals bred in q milder eli
mate.
"Of small animals" said Mr.. Harri-
son, discussing the project, "by far
the most valuable pelt is that of the
nearly extinct silver fox. The company
| represent makes Il business of breed
ing animals for their pelts, but until
ii short time ago we never attempted
to raise the silver fox, as the animal
is very difficult, to capture and as it
usually does not thrive in captivity.
We have. however, a small number OF
the little animals on an Alaskan farm.
It has been suggested that perhaps a
finer quality of fur could be raised i'll
n milder climate. and it seems to me
that the conditions in Park county are
favorable for the experiment.

SOLD ESQ BALES OF COTTON
Farmer lowers Has Closed His Hold
ings. About $4,000 Was
Thus Realized.

Perhaps the largest single lot Of cot
ton held by any planter in southwest
Georgia has just been sold in Ameri-
Gus at a figure which nets a snug for
tune to the man who swung on to his
bales, even when cotton dropped down
to the six cent mark. ~A.ar-.
This sale was of $50 bales, lbelong-
inc to Mr.. w. p. lowers. Mr., c. j..
White bought the entire lot at the
round price of 10s cents.
The transaction probably Melted
Mr.. lowers something like $13, 900.
The recent rise in values induced
Mr.. lowers to put his bales upon the
market, although for six months past
he has been in no hurry to do so. But
Mr.. lowers never hurries to sell his
cotton, Oftimes keeping his entire crop
a whole year if he likes.
This condition is made possible by
the fact that he lives at home and cot
ton is a surplus crop.
When prices took a tumble in De-
cember Mr.. lowers was not in the
least disconnected. His $50 cotton
bales were his own, and he could hold
them until Gabriel sounded his cor
net solo if he desired. If he didn't
sell this year he would sell next year.
But l0s cents proved a tempting
price, and he let it go.
At an average of $52 per bale this
price Melted Mr.. lowers the handsome
amount of $4,000. Mr.. G.. =, White
bought his entire holdings. -Ameri-

A BRIGHT GEORGIA BOY.

Much as the new south has right

Young men it is rearing, says Leslie's
Weekly. In every walk in life and in
every section of the country its youth
full sons are winning laurels and
marching on to success. This holds
true in the halls of learning as we'll
as in the arena of practical life. Some
of the best students in our northern
universities hail from below the Ma
son and DiXOn's line, while in the two
big government schOOls-at Annapolis
and West POint-the cadets from the
south are making excellent records.
The chief hOnOrs of the graduating
class at the military college this year
were won by a Georgian, Dewitt c..
Jones, who stood at the head of ll3
future generals, while the second man
was a North Carolinian. This was a
very good showing for the southern
ers. Although academic success does
not necessarily imply genius for act
ual warfare, it does indicate a devO-
tom to duty and mental powers that
go far to make an efficient army Off

A COMMON DUTY.

Every man, woman and child in
the United States is interested in the
question of improved highways. The
failure of a hundred years of local
systems has shown that the country
can never have a system of good
roads except by the aid and coopera-
ton OF the general government. Bills
were introduced in the last two Con
crosses providing for this very thing
the original bill in the House of Rep
resentatives by Hon. w. p. Brown
low, OF Tennessee, followed by sim
liar bill in the Senate by Hon. A. G.
Latimer, of South Carolina; the first
Republican and the latter a Demo
crat. The Brownlow- Latimer bills
will be introduced again this coming
winter,and the strongest effort will be
made to enact them into law. The
friends of good roads have a duty to
perform just here and now, and we
would address this not alone to the
farmer, but to the merchant, manu-
facturer, lawyer, doctor. mechanic,
and all other citizens, not emitting
the minister. Use y0ur influence
1Cith your Senator and Represento-
toe. This is the only way to get this
national legislation. Write them
personal letters. Where you can, talk
to them. Let them understand that
you know what you want. You must
convince them by overwhelming de-
mand, just as the pure butter law;
just as every interest that secures de-
sired legislation convinces them.
Every arguments inifayor of nation
al aid to good roads. The question
OF constitutionalitv has been settled.
The question of necessity has never
been disputed. The existence of re-
ciprocal obligation between the GOV
eminent and the people has ever
been an open one. The government
belongs to the people. The money
that gets into the treasury belongs
to the people. The time has come
for the people to make concerted de-
maud for the return to them of some
part of that which is their own.
Good Roads would do more for the
country than any other one thing
that can be named. 1t is a fact of
history that no country ever built
good roads without the aid of the
general government. No country
ever will, because the local property
cannot afford it, and never in
all the history of the world has il
been able to except in the centers of
wealth. If the people want good
roads, they must wake up and get to
work. Don't wait for somebody else
to start. Get your demand in on yOatr
o1CR Representative and Senators. If
all who favor the Brownlow- Latimer
good-roads bills will do this, favora.
BILE action may be expected. With
out this concert of action, Congress
will do nothing. Brownlow and Lat
inner can't do the work alone. 1t is
the common duty of the people to
flood Representatives and Senators
with letters, demanding this good
roads legislation.
