Roosevelt and Carnegie Should Know
About II.

GREENvILLE, Sept. 30th. - w. A.
Curry is the proud grandfather of three
sets of twins, and all born within the
present year. There is no danger of
race suicide in the vicinity of Simpson
vile at least, and President Roosevelt
ought to be informed of the occurrence,
and perhaps Andrew Carnegie might
contribute a hero medal.
The eldest set of twins were born five
months ago. They are boys, the little
son of MI. and Mrs. Arlington Curry.
Two months later Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Curry became the parents of two
little girls, and three days ago Mrs.
Grazier, a sister of Arlington and Will
liam Curry became the mother of the
third set of twins in the family, one
boy and the other a girl.
The children are lusty and bid fair to
develop into sturdy manhood and wo-
manhood.

County Paid for riIlman's Telegram.

In running over the vouchers for
bills paid through the county super
visor's office, Avery Patton came across
a memorandum from the Western I'm
ion Telegraph Company. 1t contained
a number of entries and among them
was N charging the county with tolls
on a message to Coryden, Ind, and a
reply through Louisville, Ky. The mes
sages, according to the telegraph MEM
orandum, were dated November 4 and
s, respectively, and the charges were
SIS. 55.
The investigating committee has de-
manded copies of the messages from
the telegraph company on the ground
that the memorandum bears the APP
prevail of the county commissioners and
wasss paid as an expense against the
county.
During the heated campaign in No
vember, 1904, when j. w. Walker, SUI
vervisor, refused to accept the ruling
of the county executive committee and
entered the field as an independent can
didate, Supervisor Speegle and his
friends did all in their power to keep
the Democrats in line, in spite of the
action of clubs in every part of the
county which refused to be governed by
what they declared the unwarranted
and undemocratic action of the COM
mittee.
The ~dispensary even at hat late date
was regarded as a power and with it
Senator Tillman, whose word was
thought to be law for Democracy in
this part of the county. Believing this
to be so, it vas a great card to play
when the Speegle faction hunted up
the Senator, found him stamping the
State of Indiana and sent him a long
message, telling him of conditions here
and asking for advice. This message
was signed by a number of Speegle fol-
lowers. The next day the answer came
telling the people Of Greenville county
to stand by the nominee -Speegle. To
what extent they obeyed was written
in the majorities that poured in for the
other man.
~ SiiSoS iiSoooSCo WiiSh WSiS
printed on dodgers and scattered
broadcast, that the commission believes
the charges to have been settled by
the county.
When President Mccall of the New
York Life was signing a check for
$4S, 900 of the policy-holders' money for
the benefit of the Republican campaign
fund, the county board was contribut-
ing funds belonging to the people of
Greenville county to the support of
SPECIFICS election. Like Mccall, will
they take the ground that it was done
for the good of the county?
Manager Brennecke has sent on to
the head Office for copies of the mes
sages and these will be sent here
shortly and placed in the hands of the
investigation commission. = Greenville

Dicie Langston's Grave.
Editor Greenville News:

Editor Greenville News:
The many friends and relatives will
no doubt be glad to know of the burial
place and grave of our heroic grand
mother Springfield being found lately.
Her maiden name was Dicie Langston.
She married Thomas Springfield.
Henry Springfield and his son Will
liam had been to the old graveyard up
near Enoree Church and worked hard
ali day cleaning it off. He also found
the graves of his parents and many
other graves. Mr.. Springfield says it
is a beautiful place. There have been
some friends and relatives wishing to
know the place where Dicie was buried
so they could place a monument over
her grave. 1t would be a grand and
noble thing to do for the great and no.
BILE things she did during the Revolu-
%tionary War. She saved many lives by
her bravery. She walked before the
Torys and passed at midnight through
the swamps and crossed the Enoree
river, carrying a torch of pine knots to
save the soldiers of her country. She
would open her own bosom and say,
'Put the bullet here" and many UNI
numbered deeds did she do.
A book was written of her life which
was handed down from one generation
o .another and was finally lost.

THE TOWNS RESPONSIBILITY,

Would Prohibition be enforced if it
we're the law in Laurens?
That would depend largely, mainly,
on it's enforcement in the town of Lau-
rens.
With w. r. Richey or N. B. Dial as
Mayor it would be enforced. But we
have had Mayors in Laurens under
whom the'town would be "wide OPEN"
If we should have a Mayor who was
himself given to f%requenting gambling
'~joints" and drinking we could hardly
look for him to keep after the "tigers."
Unless u people, especially the peo-
pie of this town, are in earnest and
mean to enforce the law, they had best
fight shy of prohibition. Our neighbors
in Gaffney are enforcing it, so are
they in Greenwood. Twenty gallons
of whiskey are drunk in Laurens to one
in Greenwood, but if we are not willing
to elect first-class men to the Mayors
Office all the time we had better retain
the legal grogshop.
If the county should vote for prohibit
ton the situation would be in the
hands of the people of this town. Our
friends in the country may be depended
upon to keep blind tigers out of their
n~eighborhood. Now and then a little
contraband may be sold, just as it is
sold sometimes at a negro frolic, but it
is certain that the people of Jacks and
the people of Sullivans and other town
>ships will drive out any man, white or
black, who should try to locate an lille
it shop among them.
The sentiment of Clinton is firm
against whiskey now and forever.
A little danger might arise at rail
way stations but it would not be Sc
rious.
If this town is prepared to have at
all times a respectable and manly
Mayor who will see that police officers
do their duty, no trouble will likely be
had from l~aw-breakers if all sales of
whiskey be prohibited.
But if the Dispensary should be voted
out and the Mayor of Laurens should
shirk his duty, the town would be a
center of decentralization and injury to
the prohibition cause throughout the
State.

tions that the other is not honest and
then taking it all back.
Meanwhile this "0ld Anti" newspa-
per is not making insinuations about
Tilllman's trip to Cincinnati and Tow
ill's horse and THE ADVERTISER has a
better opinion today of both Tillman
and Towill than they have of each
other.
AS a matter of fact graver charges
perhaps have been brought against
Tillmsn by his closest friends and ASSOC
%ciates, some of them dead and gone,
than ever have been brought by his
political enemies.

TO CATARRH SUFFERERS.
Hyomei Guaranteed to Cure by The
Laurens Drug Co. or Money Refunded.

The popularity and increase in the
sales of Hyomei are unique in the an
nails of medicine. Such astonishing
cures have been made by this remedy
that the prOprietors have authorized
The Laurens Drug Co. to sell every
package of Hyomei under an absolute
guarantee that it will cure catarrh. If
it does not, the purchaser a have his
money refunded by The Laurens Drug
Co.
Hyomei is no ordinary remedy. 1t is
the only method of treatment that
sends by direct inhalation to the most
remote part of the air passages, a bal
samic air that destroys all catarrhal
germs in the breathing organs, en-
riches and purifies the blood with addi-
tional ozone, and makes a permanent
and complete cure of catarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but $1.00 and consists of an inhaler
that can be carried in the vest pocket,
a medicine dropper, and a bottle of
Hyomei. The inhaler last a life time,
and if one bottle does not cure, an ex.
ira bottle of Hyomei can be obtained
for SO cents. 1t is the most economical
of all remedies advertised for the cure
of catarrh, and it is the only one that
follows Nature in her methods of treat
ing diseases of the respiratory organs
Breathe through the inhaler for a few
minutes four times n day, and your ca
tarrh is cured. That's all.
If not cured, The Laurens Drug Co.
will refund your money.
