CLEARING HOUSE CERTIFICATES

At the request of large number of |
merchants, the Americas Clearing
House has decided to issue certificates
or notes, which will fall due in law
full currency on March /, 1908. This
action is in line with that taken by
other banking centers. The certii-
Gates are of face value of S., Sc
cured by good collateral to the amount
of Sc, backed by the four Americas
banks, individually and collectively.
The issuance of these certificates
is of course due to the financial strin-
gency, which has resulted in Eastern
banks refusing to ship currency for
balances on deposit in New York and
elsewhere.
Practically every store in the city
will accept these certificates as gladly
as Uncle Sans currency, and their
issuance will oil the wheels of com
MERGE locally. Without any dispar-
agement to Uncle Sam, it is no exag-
geration to say that these bank notes
are as good as Government currency
for local uses. The approved collat-
eral behind the certificates is nearly
up to the 80 per cent. required for
national bank notes, and besides this
the resources of the local banks also
furnish an additional security-if such
were required-almost as large.
No one should hesitate for an in
slant to accept these certificates, for
every store will be glad to re-
ceive them while the banks will be
more than glad to accept them as
full legal tender for deposits or for
the payment of notes. For all local
uses they're as good as gold.

GRAND JURY AS DRAWN
FOR TERM OF COURT
Session Will Be Quite a
Busy One.

The regular full term of Sumter
superior court convenes three weeks
hence. and the session gives promise
of being a busy one although the
amount of civil business will scarce
ly be as large as usual while the
criminal docket will be unusually
light unless more cases develop in

At present there are but three pris-
oners in the jail, and none of these
are held for murder.
The entire session may not con-
sumo more than two or three weeks.
The following named grand jurors
have been drawn to serve at this
term of the court

Various crimes as we'll, including
the shooting up of negro church

Of more or less public interest will

POST OFFICE RECEIPTS
RECORD BREAKING
For October Is Per Gent
Over Best.

October, 1907, brought to the Am
ericus postoffice the greatest vol
ume Of business in its history for a
single month
The total amount of cash receipts
of the postoffiee for the month was
S2136,97
The previous greatest months bus
mess was for January 1907 when
the receipts were $1,659,5S,
Last month accordingly went the
previous best month $477.39 better.
This was equivalent to an increase
of twenty-five per cent over the best
month heretofore.
October 1906, brought an aggregate
business. of $1,64962, or $4S7,35 less
than October of this year.
These figures tell the story of the
business development of Americas, of
its growth in population and in
trade.
The year 1907 will show great
gain in postal receipts over any
previous year.

SECOND METHODIST
PASTOR LIKELY HERE

Two Methodist pastors will be as
signed to Americas at the coming
South Georgia annual conference
which will be held at Brunswick, Nov.
q, if the recommendations of Rev.
Dr. ]. p Wardlaw are adopted, which
is REGARDED as most probable.
At the present time the First Me-
thodist church is the only church
having a regular pastor At Brook
Ign Heights and at East Americas
these are congregations which meet
Sunday afternoon in the capacity of
a Sunday School The second pastor
would doubtless have charge of these
churches, which are at present under
the direction of the minister in charge
of the First church.
THE work is too heavy for one
man." said DR.. Wardlaw yesterday.
East Americas at one time had a
pastor, and there is the Brooklyn
Heights congregation. Then the field
is ripe in South Americas for work
and all in all it seems to me that
there is much that a second pastor
could do.
Il shall certainly make every eff
fort to have another pastor sent here.
AS l have been here four years it
will be my successor for whom l am
working. There is every likelihood
that a second pastor will be assign
ed to this station by the Conference.
"Of course, l shall greatly regret
to leave Americas, but there is no
help for it. This is my fourth year,
and these have been the hardest years
of my work"
Dr. Wardlaw will fill his pulpit as
usual for the next three Sundays.
