THERE'S real pleasure in chewing
the best tobacco grown-where the
best tobacco grows-in the famous
Piedmont Country.
Only choice selections OF this
well -matured and thoroughly cured
tobacco is used in making
sCHNAPPs. Thatswhy scHNAPPS
and others Of the Reynolds brands,
as shown by the Internal Revenue
statistics for a fiscal year, made the
wonderful growth Of six and one
quarter million pounds, or a net
gain of one-third of the entire
increased consumption cf chewing
and smoking tobaccos il the United
States.
Evidently, chewers cannot resist
thefavor and they cheer SCHNAPPs
because SCHNAPPs cheers them
more than any other chewing to-
bacco, and every man that chews
SCHNAPPS passes the good thing
along - chewer makes other
chewers- until the fact is now es-
tablished that there are many more

chewers and pounds Of tobacco
chewed, to the population, in those
States where SCFINAPPS tobacco
was first sold than there are IN the
States where SCHNAPPS has not
vet been offered to the trade.
SCHNAPPS is like cup of fine
lava coffee, sweetened just enough
to bring out it's natural, stimulating
qualities. SCEINAPPS pleases all
classes of chewers: the rich, be-
cause they do not find a chew that
really pleases them better at any
price; the poor, because it is more
economical than the large 1Oc. or
15c. plugs and they get their mon
ey's worth of the real snappy, strn-
ulating flavor so appreciated by to-
bacco lovers. All limitations con-
tain much more sweetening than
sCHNAPPS They are made that
way to hide Door tobacco improp-
erly cured.
For the man who chews tobacco
for tobacco s sake, there is no chew
like SCHNAPPS.

There is a case in the United
States district court, the decl-
sion of which will be Of great
Importance to the farmers as it
effects the validity Of our agricul-
tural contract laws. The object
of getting in the district court IS
to put the question in line for
an appeal to the United States
supreme court, and it would sur
prise US greatly should that
court sustain a contract which
makes its violation or breach, a
misdeanor, punishable by i'm
prisonment. It is our Judgment,
that our farmers might as vel!
begin to devise some other
means of scoring labor, because
the present system has oeen so
badly abused that it has proven
a verltable boomerang. 1t fails
to secure satisfactory class OF
labor, and gives designing indi-
vlduals an opportunity to specu-
late and take long chances Of
forcing their profits out OF the
man who employs the labor.

the shippers cannot be indicted,
they can be black listed and not

The conviction Of J. T. Glib
son, the Columbia bond broker,
was based entirely upon the
evidence OF a self confessed
criminal. and in our judgment a
sad injustice has heen done to a
man on the brink of the grave
and to whose reputation has al
ways been good. He bought
and sold bonds, it was his regu-
lar business, Zimmerman was
employed in the State Treas
urer's Office, and was a man of
supposed means and good repu-
tation, from the evidence as pub
lished in the newspapers there
was no way for Gibson to know
that the bonds he was selling
for Zimmerman were being pur-
Ioined from the State. Gibson's
testimony was stamped with
truth upon its face, and the
Jury should have believed him
instead of the man upon whose
evidence they convicted. We
believe the verdict unjust.

How TO Avoid Catching Colds.

As everyone is liable to catch cold
and as colds arc dangerous because
they may terminate in chronic throat
or lung diseases. Every one should be
interested in learning how to avoid
colds. The way is simple. Never
sleep 100 cold, never fall asleep in a
cold room. o.: while sitting in Il cold
draft, never sit or lie in a cold room
or draft. No one ever catches q cold
when the body and mind are active,
no matter how cold one may get. If
you are suffering from cold or its
effects. Raydale's Cough Elixir is the
quickest and best remedy you can use.
Rydales Cough Elixir is sold under a
guarantee. . and 80 cts a bottle.

DR.. John c. Kilgo, president
of Trinity college in North Car
olina on the 2nd, inst, delivered
an address in New York in
which he took occasion to con.
demn the utterances of Senator
Tillman. by saying 1.-The South
has grown tired of it's old kind
of leadership and there's a long,
ing for some one to come Tor
ward and voice its new senti-
ment. Never before was there
felt throughout the South by
worthy men in every line of
work deeper humiliation than
that recently provoked by the
rough and sectional utterances
of Senator Tillman in the United
States Senate. DR.. Kilgo does
not seem to realize the value
that Tillman's trough and Sec
tional utterances are to Till
man, they afford him excellent
advertising material as is mani
fest by the demands on his time
upon the lecture platform. We
doubt exceedingly if the polished
eloquent, Kilgo would be an at
traction or a drawing card for a
Chatauqua or lyceum association,
nor could he command one half
the price that Tillman can. 1t
was P. T. Barnum we believe
who said the American people
loved to be hum-bugged, and
Senator Tillman is S h r e W d
enough to know just the kind OF
talk it takes to- reach their pock-
ct books.

We understand there are some
who are anxious to begin the
circulation of a petition to have
the Supervisor order an election
to vote the county dispensary
out. This does not come from
those favoring prohibition. but
from an element that heretofore
advocated the State dispensary.
The county dispensary plan
should be tried, and then if the
experiment is unsatisfactory it
is time to repudiate it, but to
agitate it's adjustment at this
time is not fair, and besides,
should the people vote it out
they must understand the tax
levy will have to be raised to an
increase of not less han four
mills to meet the ordinary ex-
penses of the county, and the
school term will have to be
shortened. When asked to sign
a petition for such an election
YOU should consider whether or
not the railroads will bring
in whiskey. and if they can, will
it be advisable to be deprived Of
the revenue derived from liquor
profits, with the liquor abomina-
ton going right on, is it a com
mon sense business proposition
to have our taxes Increased and
our school term shortened just
for the name Of closing up the
dispensary, and whiskey per-
mitted to reach every express
Office in the State.

in winter, and 4 mansion in New Jer-
scy, where he passed his summers. He
was much liked in this country, but
could not make up his mind to stay
here, so returned to Europe, hoping to
profit by the changes Of government in
France. He was always disappointed
and found himself an unwelcome guest
in every country save England. He
finally secured permission to live in
Italy and died in Florence in 1914.
