terding through the country to
Black river, a few miles above
Bingstree, and about which there
are most interesting rumors.
The construction force is being
put down to the hardest kind of
rush work from Mullins to the
river on the upper side. There was
some work done on that end of
the line by the road from Lumber
ton to Marion, the Raleigh and
Ctart ston, which seems, now to be
a comrt rcial waif, but may be TAX

Attack Like Tigers.
Columbia, S. c,

In fighting to keep the blood
pure the white corpuscles attack
disease germs like tigers. But Of
ten germs multiply so fast the lit
tie fighters are overcome. Then
see pimples, boils, eczema, salt
rheum and sores multiply and
strength md appetite fail. This
condition demands Electric Bitters
to regulate stomach, liver and kid
neys and to expel poisons from the
blood. They are the best blood
purifier" writes c. T. Budahn, of
Tracy, Calf, "I have ever found"
They make rich. red blood, strong
nerves and build up your health.

Kill More Than Wild Beasts.

The number of people killed
yearly by wild beasts don't approach
the vast number killed by disease
germs. No life is safe from their
attacks. They're in the air, water,
dust, even food. But grand pro-
lection is afforded by Electric Bit
ters, which destroy and expel these
deadly disease germs from the sys-
tenn. That's why chills, fever and
ague, all malarial and many blood
diseases yield promptly to this won
derful blood purifier. Try them,
and enjoy the glorious health and
new strength they'll give you. Mon

Stole a Dozen at Least.

The story is told by a travelling
man, says the West Plains, Mo,
Gazette, of a pretty young lady who
stepped into music store in
Springfield the other day. She trip
ped up to the counter where a new
clerk was asserting music and in
the sweetest tones asked: Have
you Kissed Me in the Moonlight?' "
The lobster turned half way
round and answered: 1T must
have been the man at the other
counter; I've been here only a
week.
What would a Dillon clerk have
done!

To BRIDGE PEE DEE RIVER.

1t Will Be for the Railroad and
Not for the Public, However.
Florence Times.
A notice appears in the paper to
day for the incorporation of the
Pee Dee Bridge Company. This is
To be the bridge that is to carry
the new road from Mullins to
Rosemary and Georgetown over the
river, AMI it indicates that work
on that end of the road is to be
pushed as rapidly as possible.
IL that bridge company could be
induced to put a wagon way the
on the bridge that they build, even
IL 1t had to be a toll bridge, the
people of the two counties would
rise up and call them blessed, but
there is not much likelihood of
that being done.
There has been nothing done to-
wards the extention of the road
from Florence to the river, though
the people Of the county have vol
unteered to get the rights of way
Tor the line If the company would
just assure them that the road
would be built when the rights of
way were obtained
The whole of Florence county is
vitally interested in the extension
of the road to the river from this
point but no movement Is being
made in the direction of getting it.
The G. and w. and the N. and
s. c. railroads are both building
new roads to meet at the Pee Dee
river opposite Savage landing.
These roads run from Mullins
and Andrews, respectively, and
, while the two roads are operating
under a different name there are
those who say that in finance and
control they are enough alike to
be twins.
The Georgetown and Western
road is building from Andrews
about fifteen miles from George

Disfranchise White Men.
Union Republican. ]

Union hepuOlcan.
The Republican has frequently said
that white men were DISTINGUISHED
under the Democratic election law
and the editorial qualification and IL
it was carried out to the letter there
would be quite an army. In canvass
ing the local tobacco warehouses the
local editor finds quite a number of
farmers, the bone and sinew of the
land. who can neither read nor write.
IL these men were put to the test
they would be DISTINGUISHED under
the Democratic created election law.
Our agent was in attendance at Ca
barrus County court last week and
there met Mr.. Jonathan RADON, who
lives in Concord Township, Cabarrus
County. He Is eighty-five years old
and Confederate soldier, has never
committed crime, 1t is said, and was
severely wounded in one of the bat
ties of the Civil War. Mr.. RADON
says that he was disfranchised at the
last election because he could not
read and write. These are the fact
as our agent heard them from Mr..
Rabon-an old soldier, wounded,
humble and poor and yet disfranchis-
ed by the Democrats for no other rea-
SON, presumably, than that he votes
the Republican ticket.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The Presidents third annual mes
sage to Congress deals entirely with
the trust question. Mr.. Taft does not
favor amending or repeating the
present law, but favors the passage
of a Federal incorporation law and
the creation of an executive bureau,
or commission with powers to super
wise corporations chartered under the
Federal law.
The tariff board has not yet made
its report to the President, but after
1t makes its report Mr.. Taft will send
another message to Congress making
recommendations as to certain sched-
ules in the tariff law.
