Might Riders to Hang.

The whole country owes q debt OF gratitude
TO the Court and jurors for their action In the
trial of the Reelfoot band Of night riders IL
Tennessee. Six Of the murderers OF Captain
Quen tin Rankin are to be banged on the
10th OF February, and two others have been
sentenced to twenty years in the penitenti
airy.
The only hope Of these murderers Is tina,
the higher courts may lake q and In finding,
or in pretending to find, a technically by
which their necks may be saved. When the
and when the pardoning power may cease to
lend itself TO the purposes Of the friends
Of prominent prisoners. We Will have q better
Increment OF the law for the protection OF
human life.
The Reelfoot night riders had no doubt ex-
ercised their unlawful acts against poor and
triendless wretches, and did 30 without fear
Of punishment. In such acts they we're com
paratively safe. But they made q mistake In
killing Captain Quentin Rankin. He was OF
such prominence that the oficers OF the law
had TO take notice; and there was nothing
for an honest jury 10 do but to convict, and
an honest judge had to sentence them. VIII
the higher Courts set aside the righteous YER
dict and the lawful sentence? Almost any
b ody can induce the Courts to let out an in
tiuential convict on a technicality. What is
most needed is substantial justice without
refer ence 10 querks and bubbles. This coun-
try must be ruled by law or by mobs. Which
shall 1t be?

The SINGLE Standard

When some men nave little less than nothA
ing to talk about, they agitate the single STAN
dard of morals for men and women. The
great glcry of the Christian religion has been
the elevation of woman. Under no other
form of religion are women so guarded q
80 honored as under the Christian religion.
In the old Bible times 1t was 30. When
women become slaves and are expected to be
exposed 10 all the evils that stalk abroad,
then their standard OF morals may be lowered
to that Of men. Woman's greatest safety lies
In her remaining in the domain which has
been assigned 10 her by the Christian re-
ligion. The so-called new woman is out Of
accord With this idea. Men shield their fami'
lies from all possible danger and guard them
every hour. They are protected from the
chilling blasts Of the winds OF heaven itself.
The wife is the keeper of the household and
to her is conf1ded all that men and angels
hold sacred. Mans sins carry him amongst
the outcasts. Woman's sins are against the
sapctity OF the home. While wrong Is to be
condemned in whatever form, 1t Is sheer non.
sense 10 contend for the same standards FOL
man and woman. II women were not pro
tected, and II women are expected to jostlt
with the crowded world as men do, then thell
morals would be perhaps no better.
What men are, that they will be to the END
OF time. Women are the conservators o
morals. May they never be reduced to man.
level.

Saw il in the Pnpers.

Mr.. John Wesley Rykard OF this city is a
dealer in watches, jewelry, silver ware. and
all other things for wedding OCCASIONS. He Is
not only all these things, but he is an hopest
man. Although he is far advanced IN years,
he still believes that neither George Wash
ington nor the weather forecaster could tell q
lie. He saw in the papers one day last week
where one Of those Western billiards. was
coming, and would be here that night. He
went to bed beneath q weight Of blankets,
protection against the coming wave, as you
may assume, Mr.. Rykard did not mount up
with wings as eagles. But a deep sleep over
came him, and, like Jacob he went TO dream
ing. He first dreamed that the Blue Ridge
mountain, with all the forests and all the
moonshiners had fallen on him in one great
pile. After he had exhausted himself from
the burden that was bearing him down the
scene changed. He heard in the distance the
roar Of the ocean tina never rests or sleeps.
In o little while he saw the approaching bill.
lows, and as they neared him he like a good
christian, added a prayer for his competitors
who charge q profit on their goods. Like

cost. That trade would now 60 to bis com
petetor. The waves had now begun to sweep
up to him and knowing hat bis only deliver
ance was in rolling the mountain off Of his
body before the next wave could come, he
made a last mighty effort, and he was free.
The weight was of of bis body. but the con-
dition OF his clothing indicated the recent &C
tual presence OF the pillows Of the sea. He
was as hot as No. 9 in hades, and the perspl.
ration was running from every pore that
scalded his epidermis. The blizzard had not
arrived, and Mr.. Rykard had to open the
windows to get a breath Of fresh air. We are
not informed as to what be did with the
blankets, or what he said about the weather
man after he walked. but he is still alive.

Better School Facilities for AbbeviIIe.

The trustees OF the Abbeville city schools
have for some time had under consideration
plans for the betterment of our present
school facilities. The trustees met during
the holidays, and after q discussion OF the
matter determined to call a mass meeting OF
the citizens on the following week. This was
done and at this meeting the trustees propos-
ed q plan which was adopted.
The plan is about as follows: To continue
the present school tar. The bonds which
were floated to erect the present school build
ing. could be retired now II such a move
were agreeable to the bonds. There Is enough
money In the treasury to retire these bonds
now, and 1t would require additional levy to
begin futher improvement. We will only
continue the present levey which will be
sufficient for the purpose In view.
At the mass meeting the trustees were in-
struoted to proceed, but were limited tc
twenty thousand dollars In the issuing OF
new bonds.
The plan is to remodel the present graded
school building so as to accommodate seven
grades, and 10 erect elsewhere in the city q
building to be used as q High School. This
high school TO be four grades, or requiring
four years work to complete the course.
The three lower grades are out OF all pro-
portion to the teaching force, and to remedy
range better accommodations. ,
The addition OF one grade to the high
school is mandatory. This with, the Inn
provement in the lower grades will make
our school second to lone in The state.

Stories in Pork.

One day last week the Anderson Mail had
a good story as TO how q lady in that city
ia tened a porker OF Of scraps from the din
ms table, to which scraps were added a lot
Of potatoes from the garden.
To show that the Anderson Mail and the
erson housekeeper are not the only peb-
bles on the beach we offer this story which
sees their hog and goes one better, and which
we believe will rake In the pot from our
good brother of the Electric City. Mr.. W. C
OF this city at the beginning Of 1908
set out to make a thousand pounds OF pork
by making his pigs do as did the Anderson
pigs, eat at the second table. He killed both
hogs last Friday. One weighed, gross, $50
pounds, net a00; one weighed 355 pounds
gross. net Dos pounds; or sos pounds net. at a
cost of s19.45. Now, brother, where Ia your
little potatoe. eating swine?

Eat All You Can, Mother!

An old man whose hair and beard were
cut In a chaste, rural design appeared In
one Of the table d'hote restaurants the
other day. He had his wife with him.
That was more than the old lady could
say Of her hearing. She was almost stone
deaf, which gave everybody a chance to
find out what splendid lungs her husband
had.
The meal was luncheon. The price
which the old man was asked after ne
had ordered two meals was rs cents.
"Seventy-fve cents!" he exclaimed.
"You don't mean apiece"
eyes, sir"
"Gracious!"
He thought 1t over a minute or two.
Then he looked at his wife as if consider
Ing whether he should try to get the
dreaded news past the old lady's tym-
panum. Evidently he gave it up. But be
did what he could. When the first course
came on, he leaned over and shouted in
her ear:
"Eat all you can, motherl I'll tell you
why after, awhile!"-New York Sun.

Worthy Young Men to the Front.

1t is with pleasure that the Press and Ban.
ner notes the promotion OF two of Alb
beville's most excellent young men 10 the
head Of the clothing store heretofore known
as the firm Of b. G. Anderson & Co. Some
ley Reese were employed as clerks In the
store Of Hall & Anderson. BY energy and the
manifestation Of those good qualities which
commend young men 10 the favor of the pub
lie n win the confidence OF their employ.
ers Mr.. Parker and Mr.. Reese were taken
int O partnership. some two years ago, when
the firm name was changed 10 II. G. Apder-
son & Co. Mr.. Anderson has now Withdrawn
from the store and the firm name is now
Parker & Reese. Tn new firm will continue
to offer the same line of goods as heretofore
sold in that store. Their speciality Is In pro-
perly dressing young men for entrance into
the best society, where they may win the
hearts OF the best young women in all the
land. Mr.. Parker has already safely EN-.
barked on the sea Of matrimony and his ship
goes sailing most delightfully."- in the voyage
to the other shore. But we are a little anx-
ious about Mr.. Reese. he Is still a single
man, when he ought to be a married man.
Being one Of the best men in town, 1t seems
to us that he could find a charming life part
ner of whom he might be pround all the fu.
ture days of his life, and who wonl do
mighty well to get him. We " already
put MI. Reese on notice that we shall quit
associating with bachelors after Christmas.
We would be awfully sorry 10 part company
with so good q man as Mr.. Reese, but we are
not going to associate with bachelors at all
after Christmas, however much we would
like to make exception in his case. For this
reason we suggest hat some good girl take
care of him. She wonld never regret the act.
We know MIR. Reese we'll. He's alright.

Senator TiIlman Is at present occupying the
most conspicuous place in the eyes Of the peo-
pie. The fact that the President appointed
secret service men to ascertain facts which
be thought to be censurable in Tillman has
given great ofense to the Senator who in the
Senate last Monday opened all the visls OF
his wrath upon the head OF the President.
There are some things which we do not
know, among which are.
/. What public good the President ex.
pected to advance.
2. Why Tillman should get red hot, II hon.
est defensible acts were made public.
3. Except for act in the Senate, what wrong
Tillman did in trying to buy public lands
which were for sale.
4. Why the President should be censured
for employing secret service men to inVesti-
gate acts Of any man which he thought 10 be
unlawful or against public policy.
5. Why Senators should be exempt from
that surveillance Of the secret service TO which
other people are subjected.
Al this distance and in our lack OF infoI-
nation as TO facts, we do not see wherein the
Senator erred in the proposed land transac-
ton. That act may be too big for US 10 IN
derstand. We are, at any rate. not bothering
about 1t. We have always heard hat Till
man in Washing ion Was incorruptible, and
we have never suspected him OF unfair .ousi-
ness methods. But his act in trying to use
his official position 10 send free a typewriter
through the mail, and his ranking letters Oh
private matters are simply indefensible.
These offenses may be slight, but they are as
wrong as wrong car be. His act in refusing
to pay the SIG postage on the typewriter, snd
his refusal to return it to the department
from which 1t was borrowed, canno be justi-
fed.
In all this persecution by the President
q nd in the resultant denunciation by the Sen
ator, there Ia little Of public interest. Neither
the President nor the Senator should be al
lowed 10 use the Senate chamber as a bear
garden or as a place for the venting Of their
personalities. Each of the gentlemen, despite
the efforts OF the other, will finally 60 TO his
grave honored and respected by the great
majority Of his countrymen.

Got His TIPS Direct.

One Of the shrewdest serving men who
has come to light lately is a waiter in the
employ Of Whitaker Wright, a London
millionaire and director Of the London
and Globe Finance corporation. Mr..
Wright not long ago discovered that the
waiter was practically running d syndi-
cate on the strength of remarks relating
to the mining transactions the millionaire
let fall at home. From the day that Dir.
Wright discovered it that syndicate be-
gan to experience a series Of misfortunes,
and from that hour forth the face Of the
domestic, formerly so bright, became
more and more careworn. The ultimate
fate of the syndicate was what might
have been e1pected.-M. A.. P.
