Merchants of Union are JuStIy
Praised.

Mr.. Editor: 1 looked over the
supply of ladies jackets in Union,
with my wife, for the purpose of
making a purchase, but as I was
going to Spartanburg the next day,
we concluded that it would be wise
to see what was to be had there be-
fore making a selection; and | am
glad to be able to say, that the sup
ply of ladies cloaks, rain coats and
Jackets in Union is superior in taste
and elegance to the supply in Spar
tanburg; that is to say, in quality
and style, for they have larger
stocks in Spartanburg. l bought
for my wife in Union; and if the
ladies of Union can find anything
in that line in Union that they
wish, I am sure that they will get
as stylish an article and cheaper
for the quality than in Spartanburg
or any other town or city. 1 feel
as if l ought to write this in justice
to my town. J. CLoUGH WALLACE.

Developing the Water Power
of Fair Forest Creek.

!. At the old Murphy mill site there
is a very fine site for the erection
of cotton mill or some other plant
to be run by water power. The
shoals just below the bridge which
has for a great many years furnished
sufficient fall to run several mills,
is an idcrl spot for large cotton
mill or any other textile plant. We
do not know the exact fall per hun
drcd feet, but it is a very fine fall.
And the character of the stone there
in great abundance is said to be of
the very best. We learn that these
shoals have been recently visited by
some capitalist, and it is believed
that machinery of some sort will be
run by the waters of old Fair Forest
creek at this point. 1t is only 5
miles from Union, and the public
road leading te this point is now
being put in good order. The
county chain gang is at work on
this road and the road has been
changed in some places, which
makes it straighter and avoids the
steepest hills, and systematic grad
ing has been done according to the
surveyors level.

IMPORTANT MEETING CALLED
Civic Improvement League to
Be Organized Next Week.

Mrs. A. H. Foster, president of
the Union Library Association, has
issued call for meeting of the
ladies OF the city to be held next
Thursday morning, October 26, at
II O'Clock, for the purpose of Or
ganizing the Union Civic Improve
ment League. 1t is earnestly re-
quested that all the ladies who are
interested will attend the meeting
and unite in this effort to beautify
and improve the city.
The first object and just now the
main purpose of the league when
formed will be to improve and make
more beautiful the grounds sur
rounding the Carnegie library which
is a handsome building and one
that deserves a prettier setting.
Later on, the broader object of
beautifying the town in general will
be taken up and furthered.
1t is hardly necessary to warmly
commend this worthy purpose and
the best wishes and cordial CO.
operation and support of every citi-
zen should be given to this organi-
zation which has for its purpose the
making of a more beautiful city.
In other towns of South Carolina,
the achievements of similar organi-
zations have indeed wrought won
dcrs in beautifying the aspect and
appearance of the streets and pub
lie squares. The Civic Improve
ment Leagues of Anderson and CO.
lumbia are noteworthy examples of
organizations which have been emf
nently successful in the work they
have attempted. Out of inornate
and barren streets and public
squares they have brought beautiful
and artistic places.
The opportunity for such work
in Union is apparent. The streets
and the squares might be improved
wonderfully and with little expense
and effort the city might be greatly
beautified. There is no better adj
vcrtisement for city than it's neat
and attractive streets and places.
This -- is indeed progressive
movement that should be heartily
encouraged by all citizens and it
doubtless will be. Its purpose is
commendablc and excellent and the
desirable results it will bring about
can already be anticipated here in
city which with small effort and
public spirit can be made as beauti-
full as any city in the Palmetto State.
Let every lady interested attend
the meeting next Thursday. The
purpose is worthy one. The op-
portunity for good work is evident,
and we hope in the next issue to
be able to announce formally the
organization of large and enthusi-
astic Civic Improvement League for
the city of Union.

An Illinois Village Swept by
By q Tornado.

St. Lous, Oct. 1S.-A tornado
struck the village Of Sorrento, Ill :,
81 miles northwest of st. Louis,
last night, killing eight persons, in
juring 35 others, of whom three
will probably die aud doing a great
amount of damage to property
Forty houses were blown to atoms
or carried from their foundations.
"A complete swath was cut through
the town. Everything in the track
OF the tornado was reduced to de-
bris or blown away.
The storm approached from the
southwest and swept through the
main residence portion of the town
The work of the wind was quickly
done and then following a heavy
downpour of rain, accompanied by
vivid lightning and deep thunder.
Those who escaped injury were for
the time panic-stricken, but finally
rallied and set to work to rescue the
injured.
So violent was the tornado that
some of the residences were swept
away completely and the debris ef-
fcctually scattere,.. Houses that
remained Standing were converted
into temporary hospitals.

The teachers are free agents and
not bound to follow Mr.. Martin,
nor is Mr.. Martin bound to advise
them; but his views on educational
questions are always to be pondered.
In justice to him, we should say
that his silence since Thomas Dixon,
Jr., made his disclosures about Mr..
Ogden and since Booker Washing
ton was entertained by Mr.. Ogden s
partner at Saratoga, leads to the
strong presumption that he rejects
the claim of The News and Courier
that Ogdenism is menacing to the
southern view of the negro question.

Mr. Martin, OgdeniSm and
Citadel Removal.

The Spartanburg Journal says
that State Superintendent of Edu-
cation o. B. Martin will probably
again start the agitation" for the
removal of the Citadel. While the
views of the State Superintendent
on this form of agitation arc inter
esting it would be equally interest
ing to know whether or not revela-
tions about Robert G. Ogden and
his partner, John Wanamaker, and
their relations to Booker Washing
ton and the negroes of the south
have caused any change in his esti-
mate of the Ogden movement. Mr..
Martin, we believe, has been one of
the most faithful and consistent of
the hackers of what is popularity
called "Ogdenism." Things have
been said and heard about Mr..
Ogden since he WAS in Columbia,
which have wrought considerable
change in the sentiments held by
many of his former admirers in
South Carolina, but nothing has
been heard from the head of the
educational system of the State.
We would avoid diverting en-
tirely Mr.. Martins attention from
the Citadel removal agitation, "
but we trust that he will voluntarily
divide it and say whether or not he
thinks that South Carolina teachers
should cooperate with the Confer
ence for Education in the south
while Mr.. Robert G. Ogden is it
lpresident.

Boston Patriots are Shocked.

Boston, Dec IL Boston is grew
ing over Secretary Bonaparte's sug-
gestion in his annual rf port that the
old warship Constitution might be

tically unanimous that Secretary
Bonaparte is not at all in touch with

the historic frigate. John ID, Long,
ex-Secretary OF the Navy, said;
81 am surprised that he exhibits so
much feeling against Old Ironsides.
The Constitution has q national sig.

Although he is fairly active, Mr..
Harlan has no such record as the
hero of 50 whom Senator Stone has
discovered. Phillip Carmann. aged
SO and a Mexican war veteran, is the
senior Missouri senator's hero. He
lives at Willow Springs and receives
a pension of $12 a month. He has
written to Senator stone asking for
an increase OF pension and the sena-
tor will prepare the bill and Insist
upon it's passage on the ground that

about the case in a letter just re.
ceived. At the tender age OF 80 years
he took unto himself q new wife. He
is now the proud father Of two 70.

He says a pension OF $12 Is not sui
ffcient to maintain a family Of four

with him.
Senator Warner admitted after
Senator Stone had exploited the

that he had nothing to offer at this
