Irmo Letter.

MIR. G. L. Bouknight and his son,
H. NJ. Bouknight, have recently re-
turned from a two weeks' visit to
relatives in Arkansas. The father had
the pleasure of seeing his son happily
married to Miss Nellie McHughes, a
native of that State. The contracting
parties met last winter when Mr..
Bouknight visited his uncle and aunt,
Mr.. and Mrs. J. P. Koon. The bride
was not relative of the groom, as
has been represented.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. NJ. Bouknight VIII
move into their new home In Colum-
bia in few days. We wish for them
every happiness and success desirable.
Mr.. G. L. Bouknight's brother-in-laW
and sister, Mr.. and Mrs. J. B. Koon,
are from Lexington Fork. They moved
West about twenty-five years ago,
where they are now doing well in this
worlds goods and have successfully
brought up eight children. B.

Convicts Steal Locomotive.

Atlanta, Ca, August s.-Special:
Four long-term convicts stole a loco
motive which was standing at the
Midtown Lumber plant, pulled the
throttle wide open and flew down the
Milltown Air Line Railway at break
neck speed. AS the convicts and
locomotive dashed through the camp
volley was fired by the guards:
The Winchester bullets struck the
engine and tender, but the convicts
were unhurt. Pursuit was given on
another locomotive by the guards, but
the convicts had long lead and were
not overtaken. Ten miles from the
camp the convicts abandoned the
locomotive after cripling it and took
to the woods. Bloodhounds have been
put on the track. The convicts were
serving long terms for homicide.

Yes or No, Which?

The whiskey business, in imperial
tones, is now ordering men to worship
at it's shrine or pass under the smoke
and fire of it's denunciation. Because
it has been, and is, seems the all suf-
fcient reason for it's continued reign.
It is not of God nor for the better
ment of men. It has no moral or
religious claim upon men. There is
in it nothing to lift up, but everything
to degrade and ruin.
The twenty-eighth day of August is
set for the men of South Carolina to
PROSTATE themselves in the dust be-
fore it, or like Daniel, turn their face
and prayers towards the God of hea-
ven. Men of Lexington, who shall
we worship? Are we not nearly all
members of some Christian church?
Are we not pledged to aid our fellow
men to a better and a higher life?
Shall we, on the twenty-eighth day of
August, bow down and with our votes
whorship the whiskey monster who is
seeking our ruin? Shall we on that
day with our votes contradict our
most solemn religious VOW? Is our
religion foul dream, and our churches
entities, and the inscriptions on our
farthers' tombstones in our church
yards a deception? Is whiskey our
god and confusion our end? Christian
men of Lexington, rouse ye! Gird on
your Christian Armour! Say to the
whiskey monster, no! There is no
better way Of serving God and our
country than by saying Eyes" for the
good and "no'' for the bad, and
standing by it. Let us not in this
time of testing be traitors to our coun-
try and our God.
Joab Edwards.

The South Growing Every Day

Figures of the factory census of the
United States show that the South has
made marvellous progress. In 1900
the capital invested in the Southern
States, not including Missouri, amount
ed to 1867, 7O1, 1865. In 1905 the capital
invested in these States aggregated
1887, ,513,217. The value of manu-
factured products in these States in
1900 was 81 ,237 ,5s9, ,667, and in 1905 ST.
7s7, ,776, ,794. The percentage of in
crease in the capital invested was 65;
the percentage of increase in the value
of products was 44.4. The percentage
of increase in the capital invested in
South Carolina was sos, and in the
value of products in this State 4S.S..
During the same period in the New
England division the percentage of
increase in capital was 24.2, and in
the value of products 22.1. In the
Middle division, including, of course,
the most populous States of the Union,
the percentage of increase in capial
was AZ, and in the value of products
29.7, and in the Trans-Mississippi di-
vision the percentage of increase of
capital was 59.1, and in the value CT
products 37.2. these statistics do
not include the figures of hand trades
and neighborhood industries, the rate
of increase in which was equal to that
for the factories alone. The value of
all the manufactured products in the
South in 1905 was close to $3.50, ,0O0,-
600.
These figures are taken from the
Baltimore Manufacturers Record,
which keeps very close eye on the
industrial development of the South.
We are making progress in the best
direction, and it is most gratifying
that in the Southern States, which
have been most handicapped by poit-
ical condition, the progress has been
most notable.

10th, 1902, and departed this mortal
life July 31st, 1906, thus making her
short stay on earth but 5 years, 8
month and 12 days. Thus again we
are reminded of the certainty of death
and the uncertainty of life. Blanch
was a loving and dutiful child, and
the vacant seat at home will be
looked upon by the sorrow stricken
family only that Gods will was theirs
and that she was called to make
another star in the shining link of
Heaven. Little Blanch had been
