The Passing OF Senator Clay.

Of the most sturdy figures i'm Ameri-
can political life-a man who had
served ihe State. the South and the
Nation nearly fourteen years in the
Senate of the United States and
whom against naught could be said
to blemish his character Always
noted for mis- unswerving honesty
his economic ecumen. his tireless
energy. his loyalCy TO party and his
country's needs.
Senator Clay was in no wise an
orator. nor did he every essay 10 deal
in high phrases of honeyed-cOted
sentences. In debate he was careful.
courteous and kind but firm in his
convictions. His greatest service
was in the committees. though he
was ever a con"tsnt attendant on the
Senate sessions and always careful
and attentive listener to the argu-
ments of his colleagues.
Senator Clay was Dorn on a farm
in Cobb county. Georgia. and in his
youth was typical backwoodsman.

from the high school I'm Palmetto.

NEW TRAIN NEEDED.


With one very important exception
the schedule OF trains 10 and from
Laurens is very satisfactory but that
exception almost entirely disconnects
large portion OF the county from the
county seat. There is emphatic need
81 new morning train from Spartan
burg to Laurens and from Laurens on
10 Greenwood
Under the present schedule it re-
qulres one whole day for a person of
visit to Ora. Lanford Station or Enoree
and II requires the same time for a
visitor from either OF these three
towns to spend the shortest time in
Laurens With Greenwood the con
dition is practically the same. This
condition ought not TO prevail. u
makes the passenger service between
here and the towns of Ora. Lanford
Enoree and Woodruff and between
Greenwood and Coronaca. Waterloo
etc practically useless.
There is only one remedy and that
is new morning train leaving Spar
tanburg early enough to make con
nections with the train from Green

continuing 10 Greenwood and return
