Laurens, Oct. Tn view Of the
approaching election on the dlspen-
sary in this county the prohibition

er, pastor Of the First Baptist church,

DR.. Chas. E. Burts, of Edgeield, have
been invited to participate in the
campaign. The election will be held
on the 3rd of November, the same
date of the general election. This
will be the second effort to rid the
county of dispensary, as it will be re-
membered that in January 1906, an
election was held on the same propo'
sition and anti-dispensary won by a
small majority. However, the cleo:
ton was contested on certain alleged
| irregularities and after much litiga'
ton it was declared null and void
Consequently the shop has continued

Some Splendid Reasons.

The Southern States Life Insurance
Company, of which company Mr.. W..
C. Patrick is general agent, through
their very attractive advertisement
Fin this issue, calls the attention OF
the insuring public to ten reasons
why they should lose no time In Sc
curing a policy with them.
This is a Southern company, and
one which has won place among
the strongest of Southern financial
institutions. Its officers and board
of directors have been drawn from
among the most prominent Southern
financial and professional men, who
would be a tower of strength to any
company. The class Of men behind
this company commends it to the
people of the South, and its conser-
vative business and honest dealings
with it's policy holders has won the
unqualified praise of a noted lnsur-
ance expert, who recently examined
the company's affairs for the insur-
ance department of the State of Ala
bama.
The object of the Southern States
Life is most commendable. in that 1t
PROPOSES to conserve the wealth OF
the South by means Of building up a
giant life insurance comnany. When
we reflect on the untold influence
which the Northern and Eastern in
surance companies have welded in
the financial affairs of the entire
country in the past. it is easy to see
how very important it is that
we people of the South should
support Southern institutions, every,
thing being equal. The reasons given
! in this advertisement are splendid
ones, and we believe they will be OF
i interest to many of our readers.

PHILIPPINES HURT
BY HIGH TARIFF
Former Collector of Manila Port
Says Islands Only Wait
Favor to Boom

w. Morgan Shuster. formerly collec-
tor of the port of Manila, now mem
ber of the Philippine commission and
secretary of the board of public in
struction. arrived here yesterday on
the liner Manchuria. He has come
home to spend what two months of
travel will leave him of a six months
vacation earned by four years of hard
work in the. far east.
Shuster is going to his home in
Washington to renew acquaintance
with his family and to confer with the
administration regarding Philippine af-
fairs.
He says that the Philippine congress
so far has proved a success. The ma
tive legislators have accepted their
new responsibilities in a proper spirit
and such laws as they have enacted
are good.
The Philippines he continued,
need a chance to sell their sugar. to-
bacco and other products in the United
States. They also need capital to de-
velop their resources. but will get
neither until the tariff is modified in
favor of the islands.
I'm spite of all obstacles however,
wonders have been done in the islands.
especially in and about Manila. We
have now good water supply, scien-
tific sanitation, good lighting and
streetcar service and first class ship
ping facilities. The harbors have been
improved, and when the tariff gives
them a chance the islands will be
ready to take it."

CALIFORNIA BLUE BOOK

The legislature of 1905 failed to ap-
propriate money for the publication of
a state blue book, but through the eff
forts of Secretary of State G. F. Curry
such an appropriation was made by
the legislature of 1907, and the result
is at hand in tho shape of a handsome
ly printed and well arranged volume
filed with information regarding the
various executive branches of the state.
1t contains a complete directory of all
state and federal officials, the history
and constitution of California, tran
scripts of many interesting historical
documents, illustrated descriptions Of
state institutions, maps, detailed infor-
nation as to the various counties, cleo
ton statistics, Biographical sketches
in fact, a most valuable mass of infor-
nation regarding not only the admin
istration of state affairs but the men
who administer them. 1t is a veritable
guide book to all official matters per-
tanning to California, and in addition
to this many features in the way of
side lights on the history of the state
For instance, the history of the nam
ing of the poppy is given with a beauti-
full colored illustration Considerable
space is devoted to the missions and
their founders, and an excellent account
is given Of the discovery of gold Al
together the book is a valuable public
document.
