WHY NOT MULES?

Ten years g a farmer could buy a
big fine young Western mule on the
market here from SIPS to $3.50. Such
a mule now costs from $3.50. to $500.
Ten years ago a Laurens farmer could
raise such a mule for $3.50, or less.
Mules never could be bought cheaper
than they could be raised in Laurens.
1t costs less to raise mules in Laurens
now than ever before. Why? Because
the pastures are better and the lands
have been improved and hay and grain
crops are more economically produced.
If a mule raised now at a cost of
$125 will sell for $3.50 it follows that
there are from two to three bales of
ten cents cotton clear profit in every
Laurens raised mule.
Why then do not Laurens farmers
raise more mules?

NOT A PATENT MEDICINE.
Hyomei a Scientific Treatment for Ca
tarrh by Breathing Medicated Air.

Ever since Hyomei has been known,
it's formula has been given to physi,
clans, druggists, and, in fact, to all in
telligent people who could appreciate
the true merit of the combination of
healing gums, oils, and balsams of
which it is composed.
Hyomei and prescribe it for catarrhal
troubles. In fact, quite a few Of them
use 1T themselves to break up a cold and
prevent pneumonia. They regard it as
a natural, yet scientific way of curing
catarrh.
Breathed through the pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit, Hyomei
destroys all catarrhal germs in the air
passages of the throat and nose, soothes
and heals the irritated mucous mem
brane and effectually drives from the
system all traces of catarrhal poison.
No n should confound Hyomei with
the patent medicines that are adver-
tised as catarrh cures. 1t is as superior
to them all as the diamond is more
valuable than cheap glass.
The complete Hyomei outfit, consist
ing of a neat pocket inhaler, a medi-
cine dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei
costs but 81, and extra bottles can be
obtained for 80 cents making it the
most economical method of curing ca
tarrh, as well as the most reliable.
The Laurens Drug Co. have sold q
great many Hyomei outfits and have
seen such remarkable results from its
use, that they sell it under an absolute
guarantee that it costs nothing unless
it cures.

THE HEPBURN BILL.

Senator Tillman in a speech on Feb
ruary IL pronounced the Hepburn bill
"a maze of words through which you
can stumble and every man will disa-
gree as to what it MEANS" In the
same speech he declared it a bill through
which not merely an automobile but a
freight train could be driven.
In that speech he also said:
cit is a bill which had many wise
lawyers and patriotic statesmen en-
gagged in framing it, which came origin
ally to us from the Attorney General
under the very wing of the President,
everybody with any wisdom in law in
the republican party ~consenting, so to
speak, in writing it, and saying, Here,
Pete, pass this, but when Pete gets up
to explain it he wabbles about through
the bill and swears things are in it
which nobody else can see, and swears
things are not in it which everybody
who knows the English language can
see are in it. Why, then, should / not
be s~usplcious?"
This is the bill in charge of which
Aldrich, Foraker and the other Repub-
lican "Railroad Senators" placed Sena-
tor Tillman.
Possibly they knew what they were
doing.

LAURENS, S. c., March IA, 1906.
FACTS AND

efforts have been on foot to adjust
the litigation in which all Of the Lucas
interests have united with some of
those allied with the Millikens, but
they have failed, Mr.. Milliken rejecting
the basis proposed by the Lucas party,
and assented to by some of his friends.
The Lucas party have also repeatedly
presented give and take offers. They
offered to purchase all of the shares of
their shares at $I70, leaving to the Mill
kens the option of buying orselling. This
was rejected. Then they offered to buy
Milliken stock at SITS a share and again
at $3.50 a share, but at the same time of
fering to sell their shares at $17O. All
these offers were rejected. At present
no negotiations for a settlement are
pending and the litigation will con-
tinue. News and Courier.
Meanwhile the stock of the Laurens
Mills is quoted at only $160. Of course
no minority stakeholder dare buy it
while the Millikens have a chance to
control. They believe it worth $3.50 a
share with Lucas in control but the
Millikens believe it worth only $160 a
share with themselves in control.
The general public will pay only $160.
with the Millikens fighting for control.
Hence the minority stockholders lose
practically $40 the share if not more
on account of the want of public conf
dence in the Millikens.
Why do we say this? Because the
Stock of the Watts Mills, the only Lu-
cas- mill in which the Millikens have nc
interest, is steadily rising in value, hav-
ing recently gone up $40 or SIS the
share, while that of Laurens and Oar.
lington have not gone up at although
both are making money.
The public is afraid that the Millikens
will gain control.
The facts of the market are stronger
than the Milliken a%fldavits.

Convincing Arguments.

The New York Times prints the fol-
lowing incident concerning Alabama's
gifted Senator Morgan, as related by
himself:
1.-THE other afternoon / was sitting
at home with nothing special to occupy
me, II / picked up an old volume Of
The Congressional Record. l opened it
at random and hit upon the middle of a
speech, which | began to read. Very
soon l became interested, and as | pro-
ceeded / said to myself, "This man is
making a very sensible talk" l found
myself quite in accord with his views,
and read along with a good deal of APP
prevail until l had finished two pages. /
was wondering who could have made
such a speech, but was too much inter
ested to look back to find out. But as
turned the page l came upon an in
terruption, n there was my own name
given, as the senator making the re-
ply. 1t was my own speech l had been
reading"
This reminds us of an incident which
occurred a good many years ago., in
this State. Col. B. w. Ball, the brilliant
Laurens lawyer, had a particularly hard
case to defend. The evidence all seemed
to be against his client, but Col. Ball
worked out a most ingenious defence
and presented it to the jury in a most
and convincing manner. AS he sat
down, a brother attorney came around
to congratulate him on his magnificent
effort. "Well," said the Colonel, "a
while ago 1 thought my client may be
guilty, but since l heard my speech, l
am satisfied he is innocent" The jury
took the same view of the case and the
man was set free. -Spartanburg Jour

FROM TREE TO NEWSPAPER.

In how short a time q tree can be
converted into a newspaper was tried
recently in England. AT 1856 A. NJ,
three trees were felled and taken to a
local paper factory. BY 9.34 the first
sheet of paper issued from the ma
chimes. The printing works of the near
est newspaper were about two miles
distant. The paper was carried there
in a motor car at full speed. The
presses set to work, and exactly at 10
A. M. the newspaper was printed. The
whole process from the forest to the
reader thus occupied only the space of
two hours and twenty-five minutes.

HEAVY FERTILIZER SALES.
Indicate an Increased Cotton Acreage
for 1906.

Columbia, March IL. Judging from
the unprecedently congested condition
of freight traffic on all the roads in
this state-and the railroad people say
that similar conditions prevail through
out the South-farmers and merchants
believe 1906 will be the best year in
the history of this section, and a
greatly increased acreage of cotton is
going to be planted. The movement of
fertilizer is the heaviest in the history
of the roads here, but the congestion is
by no means due only to the movement
of fertilizer. Manufactured goods from
the North and West has been coming
in heavily several weeks, and now fer
tilizer is blocking the way.
But there is no car famine, strange
to say. There are plenty of Complies"
to supply all demands on all the roads,
because of the great mount of foreign
cars in this territory which have Just
been unloaded and ought in the .gular
order of things to be on their way back
home.
Some idea of the difference between
the movement this year and last year
may be gained from the statement
which a railroad man made to a Column
bia correspondent today that the South
ern alone handled 80, 314 cars through
its yards here in Columbia during the
month of January as against Is, Gid
cars the same month last year. The
February report is not yet available,
but it is believed it will show a still
greater difference. The Columbia
yards are SO crowded it is almostimpos-
sible to do shifting with anything like
dispatch. And every sidetrack through
out this section is more or less crowded,
the full cars waiting to be unloaded.
AT many of these stations no more cars
a be handled which further compli-
Gates matters.
II think it safe statement to make"
said the railroad man, chat the South
ern alone has 5000 cars tied up be-
tween Washington and Savannah on
account of sidetracks at small stations
being crowded. No, there is no fault
to be found with the condition of the
engines. There is simply an endless
amount of shifting to be done in this
situation. The Southern has Just got
ten in direct from the Baldwin shops
two fine new shifting engines for the
Columbia yards"
Seaboard and Coast Line officials tell
the same sort of story.
Superintendent Williams, of the Sa-
vannah division of the Southern, is i'm
proving the main lines of his division bv
laying heavier rails. This ought to
quicken schedules and facilitate freight
traffic as well. The seventy-pound rails
from Charlotte through to Columbia to
Savannah arc being substituted with
eighty-pound rails, about fifteen miles
OF the new rails being laid each way
from Columbia. Twenty-Five miles of
seventy-pound rails have been laid be-
tween here and Spartanburg, taking
the place of sity-pound rails. New rails
are being rapidly distributed on all three
OF these lines and the complete renewal
OF the lines will be pushed rapidly.
