ssAI1 aUf1EDGE COUNTY BE CREATED:

The election for or against the
establishment Of Rutledge coun'
ty has been ordered to take place
on August 18th. The TINES has
endeavored through It's columns
to inform the portion Of Ciaren-
don which IS to vote on this ques-
ton of the conditions existing and
what must follow should Sandy
Grove township become a part OF
this new county. IN doing so, It
has performed a duty it owes to
it's readers who are interested,
and having done this We had
thought we were done with the
matter, but The County Record.
published at Kingstree Of last
week contains such a magnificent
expose of the financial side Of the
controversy that the information
would be incomplete without it,
and we therefore reproduce It
here.
Much has been said and written about
what a RICH county Rutledse would DE
II established, and the wonderful re-
sources the new county would enjoy.
What vast amount OF property valua-
,!on would be its portion, and how, con-
seouen:,y. the tax levy would be reduc-
ed 70 minimum. We would feel lnath
70 disturb this rosea,e dream but Tor
the fac, that ] rude awakening would
inevitably await the credulous tax-pay-
er Just as soon as the estimate was made
for supporting the county government,
and it IS whole lot better 70 look the
matter straight in the face before it IS
TOO late. Hence we propose 20 show 40,
only that Eutledge would not he rich
county as compared with the other conn
ties, but that j. would really be the
poorest county IN the State by more
than half million Of dollars. That is
TO say, the property valuation in Rut-
ledge county-should it be formed-wi!l
be s54S, 4e9 poorer than Calhoun county,
which now tails the list
In several newspaper articles the new
coun.viteS have claimed that Eutiedge
would be considerably richer than Cal

STOP THIS DESTRUCTION.

There appears in this issue a
communication signed, Coca
which is timely. There
has been much complaint about
the unlawful destruction OF fish,
to which we have directed atten-
ton in these columns before.
Why people will persist in want
only destroying thousands OF fish
to get few to eat, we cannot
understand. It strikes US, that
ordinary human instinct would
revolt at substituting dynamite
for the hook and line when want
ing fish. It is wrong, not to say
sinful.
The correspondent intimates
that these law-breakers have
been about spotted. We hope
so, and prosecutions will surely
overtake them. The secretary
of the Audubon Society is 60
ing over the State personally
looking after the prosecutions:
and so far he has succeeded IN
having heavy fines imposed.
Some Of those convicted were
prominent citizens.
The day has come when the
people are appreciating the
value OF the public streams and
tributaries which are on private
lands, and the sentiment is get
ting stronger everyday to pun.
ish any wanton destruction OF
fish and game. The law must be
obeyed, it was enacted as a pro-
lection for the many, and if the
few defy it, they will suffer the
consequences.

"Yellow Germism. T"

From the Louisville Courier Journal
Our scare-head psychologists might not
unjustly he called yellow germists 1t
may be the fault of the press to a certain
extent. but it must be partly the fault of
the psychologists. that the columns OF
newspapers TEEN with tales of the preva-
lence and deadliness Of germs. which. if
taken at their face value might create
great deal of needless misery.
The point that Is never brought out in
these grisly stories is that the person who
is in good health has rather good ar
NOR against germs. and that while the
baclli may be found by scientists all over
the communion cup, silver coins, bank
notes. your friends hands or Penelopes
lips. many millions of persons take COM
munion, carry money in their pockets. eat
cherries. kiss Penelope when they get the
opportunity and die of old age in the
eighties or nineties.
A fig for the yellow germists. A fig
must have 90,0000OO germs in it, since a
cherry is So densely populated. and Pencil
ope at her best an incubator of two and
d third dozen assorted ills, breathing out
contasion on the world" The bacteriolo-
giSts might improve their time by writin"
little literature about the ability of the
healthy, clean living human being to make
long journey through life amid countless
swarms of germs without falling victim to
them

Worthless Sots With
Starving Families
Made Sober and Prosperous Men
They Now Support Their
Families.

Hon John r. Pannill OF Reidsville. v t., re-
Gently appointed L. s. Commissioner by the
p-.Sid.n, has observed the results obtained by
tho ucKanna treatment for the liquor habit,
and thus states his opinion of the treatment:
Being resident of this city, where one
branch Of the Three-day Liquor Cure Is estab-
Iished. i have had ample opportunity to observe
It's work and regard it one of the greatest
blessings 10 the human next to the Chris
tfan religion that exists among u.s. 1t un-
questionably takes from the patient all desire
10 imbibe and places him as he was In the be-
ginning without the slightest taste or inclina-
ton to drink which taste inclination will
never again come upon him until again acquired
nv cultivation, which of course can be done;
hence it is only a permanent benefit TO those
who really and honestly regret their fallen con-
dtion and desire 10 be reformed and reinstated.
These statements I make with a full apprecia-
ton of their meaning, and are based upon the
observations OF three years during which time
have hundreds treated who have told me
that such the effect. Besides those from
distance attending the institution. there are
many from this city and vicinity who l know
were three years ago drunken worthless sots
with starving families who are now sober and
prosperous \ very few have gone back TO
old habits, anu ii because they liked the
ways habits and associates of drunken life
better than those of sobriety and decency-in
short, from choice. The general government

NO WITNESSES HEARD.
Committee Proceeding Slowly With
Secret Service Investigation.

Thus far the Gallinger subcommittee of
the Senate committee on appropriations
has not proceeded very far with it's in
vestigation of the secret service. Mr..
Gallinger continues to maintain silence
with regard to the deliberations of the
subcommittee. repeating that he will have
nothing to say prior to the making of the
report to the full committee and then to
the Senate.
Mr.. GaIlinger was willing to say this
morning, however, that no witnesses have
vet been called by his subcommittee, and
no plans have been made to call any. The
question of witnesses has not yet been
taken up. 1t is understood, unofficially,
that the subcommittee is at present care
fully considering the legislation affecting
the secret service in order to lay founda-
ton for future hearings.
No action has yet been taken toward
investigating the charges of the Presi-
dent against Senator 1illrnan in cOnnec-
ton with Oregon land frauds. The senti-
ment still prevails that the Senate will
let this subject drop.

DAUGHTREY MAKES
GOOD F. 0. B. SALE
SELLS THREE HUNDRED sAs
KETs LETTUCE FOR $500.
ls One Of the Leading Truckers and
Always Makes a Good Haul
on Lettuce.

Alex Daughtrey. who farms az Rocky
Point but lives In this city. is among
the most successful farmers in this
section.
On Saturday he closed n deal for
three hundred crates Of lettuce at 50
per basket (. o. b. Rocky Point, which
is only a small part Of what he has to
offer. He was among the first grow
ers here to use canvas and has never
failed TO come out ahead on this pro-
tected article.
Il is understood that the buyer want
ed all Mr.. Daughtrey had, but he
would not consent to sell him the en-
tire crop.
Prices for lettuce are still advancing
daily, but the growers around here
think il will drop within about ten
days, as they figure that a large part
Of the young lettuce that was unpro-
tected will grow out Of its sickly con-
dIdOn within that time and the out
door people will be shipping along
with the canvas article.
