Sales Day
 a Great
 Success
Crowd COnservatively Estimated at 5000 People Thronged the Streets all Day Saturday. Largest and Best Natured
 and Most Orderly Crowd Ever
 Assembled in Green Forest.

It is putting it very mildly to say that the sales day Saturday was a success. It was easily the largest crowd of people ever as- sembled in the town on any one day. Three thousand people is considered very conservative estimate cf the number that were here. A number of wagons from several miles distance came in Friday evening bringing num- Der of people, who camped Fri day night. Early Saturday morning the people commenced to pour into town from every direction and by Il o'clock the business part of the town was so congested with people thst 1t was a very difficult matter to elbow one's way through the crowd at any place around the public square or along Main street. Everybody was good natured, jolly and orderly and all seemed 10 be getting their full share of the pleasures of the day.
 One of the most excellent col lections of farm products ever shown in any country, consider ing quality rather than quantity, was exhibited in the rooms of the real estate office of Whitaker & West. The exhibit consisted of corn, potatoes, beets, onions, chickens, turkeys, butter, peach es, apples, etc. These exhibits were le9l eye openers to q great many as to the excellent quality that can be given to the products of the farm by diligent husband ry.
 The following premiums were

 A crochet baby dress exhibited by Mrs. Amilia Dahl was con- sidered by the judges the prettiest piece of work in the hall but it did not properly come under tbe head of needle work and for that reason was not awarded the premium. If there had been a premium for crochet work Mrs. Dahl would have been an easy winner.
 Sales day Notes.
 A very fine exhibit of onions was made by w. B. Allen.
 Esq. R. L. Ramsey of Rule had a very fine exhibit of beets.
 All agree that it was ta big est event ever pulled off in Grenn Forest.
 Let everybody work ro make the next one a greater success, if possible.
 Mrs. s. R. Price had on ex- hibition a homemade rug that was a beauty.
 Tom Shahan and Taylor Dun- ap gave the big families a run for their money.
 The merchants certainly liv d up to their agreement to sell goods at a bargain.
 While Rome burned Nero fid- dled and sales day had but very little effect on the marble game.
 Editors Haily and Crow of Be'- ryville were mixing with tia sales day crowd. They said 1t was a regular street fair.
 Tom Whitely certainly ma ie himself "useful as we'll as Orna- mental. Toms services added much to the successful manag>. ment of the day.

DIRECTORS MUST
 VISIT SCHOOLS.

has sent the following important response to a letter recently re- ceived making inquiry as to the law pertaining to school directors
 Replying to yours of recent date 1 answer your questions in order, giving the language of the school law as to each:
 ''1. Are school directors in special school districts required to visit schools? Said board shall also separately or collec- lively, visit the schools in the dis trict at least twice in each year.
 "2. Is there a penalty for failure to perform this duty? Any direc- tor who shall neglect or fail to perform any of the duties of his office shall forfeit to his district the sum of twenty five dollars. :"
 "Whose business is it to see that this law is enforced? 'This sum may be recovered by action against said directors at the in stance of any elector in the dis trict. :"
 This is an emphasis of the law as announced several weeks ago by the attorney general. The fact that the law is on the statute books has been known all these years by all who have had any cause to examine it, but like many another enactment, that cumbers the book, it has been in- operative simply through a lack of interest in its enforcement.
 At first blush, the enforcement of this law seems to operate as 8 hardship upon the directors who serve purely through feeling of interest in the welfare of the children and the furtherance of public school advantages. The office of school director is one of honor, and it is a commendable ambition in any good citizen to be placed upon school board.
 Fortunately, it is an office which has been kept in the main free from the muck heap con- taminations of ward politics, al- though even in this respect the ideal of separation has not been attained. There is seldom a scramble for the office, but by. a, sort of mutual understanding representative citizens from the ranks of the professions and from commercial and industrial lines are chosen for these responsible offices.
 This being true, as known by all, it follows that the man who accepts the office of school direc- tor is peculiarly due the patrons of the school his best effort, for, even in this ultra -utilitarian age honor and patriotism after all stand superior to salary and political pull. The school direc- tor, as the guardian of interests not confined alone to this day, but bearing & synthetic relation to national integrity and intel. lectual superiority of the coming generation, should in all things be an exemplar of law enforce ment and loyalty to constituted power.
 And yet, do they perform the fullness of their duty? Do tie directors even of the special school districts s'visit the schools in the district at least twice a year?" l. is more than moral obligation, it is a legal obligation, that they should visit the schools, and by personal obligation see that those whom they have em- ployed to conduct the schools are performing their duty. They should do this even if there is nol law on the subject, but since there is a specific law, the obliga- ton is all the more binding.

Mr.. M. F. Ansel, ali avowed candi-
date for governor, announces his
platform. When he ran three years
ago he and all the other candidates
in that race were avowed state ,lispen-
sary candidates as "the best solu-
tion." He is the only one in that race
who is a candidate this year. He now
says that he is no longer in favor of
the state institution but thinks it
ought to 60 and that the people of
each county should have the right to
say what they want as between dis
pensary and prohibition but would
deny them the right to say whether
they want license system as provid-
ed in constitution. We would Judge
Mr.. Ansel is prohibitionist in theory
and practice, but as practical politi-
clan he wants the people to say
what they want.
"1n short,' says Mr.. Ansel, "I am
opposed to the system Of a state dis
pensary, I am in favor of local county
option as between prohibition and
county dispensaries. am opposed to
high license and am in favor Of such
laws as will decrease the sale of IL
quors in this state.'
1t would seem from this that Mr..
Ansel is opposed to the state dispen-
sary; is opposed to high license; is a
rrohibitionist himself and wants the
people to say in each county what
they want.

Senator Tillman should stay out of
the campaign this year and attend to
the business of the senate in Wash
ington. There will be men in the cam
paign for state Offices amply able to
present the issues before the people of
this state.
If he should have opposition which
is not probable then he and his op-
ponent might enter the campaign
and discuss national questions but he
should let state matters alone.
He will not be able to change the
minds Of the people on the dispensa,y
question for they have had the ques-
ton aired in almost every possible
form, but he may be able to stir up
factionalism again which we are sure
he does not desire.

MAIL SERVICE,

Representative Lever has just ar

ment, to place a mail agent, j. J. Bick,
ley, on the early train out Of Laurens
says the Newberry Herald and News
of the 9th instant, getting it's infor.
nation from the Washington letter in
the Columbia Evening Record. The
Newberry paper goes on to voice OH,
sentiment in saying that it is good
news and the people all along the line
appreciate the good offices Of Mr.
Lever in this matter; that the new
service to be inaugurated will be of
great convenience to tho people along
the line between Laurcns and Colum-
bia; that the railroad authorities say
the service will be put OH very soon,
but just at what date it cannot be
stated at this writing; and that as
soon as this is done Mr.. Childs should

aid.
Congressman Aiken also has let
Ter from the department stating that
the service has been authorized and
President Childs told us the other day
that he was now arranging his coach
es SO as to make place for the mail
agent and that he would be put on
very soon. That will be great con-
venience but what we want to do
along the line now is to persuade and
convince Mr.. Childs that this train
should be made a regular passenger
train and that it should run from
Greenville to Columbia but certainly
from Laurens and about on the same
schedule as it is now running on.
He is almost persuaded now to
put it on and it will not take a great
deal of pleading. Suppose we all
90 and ask him if he will not at least
try it as a passenger train rs soon as
the mail agent goes on.
