Apples Going to Waste.

The North Carolina apple crop
this year is the largest within the
memory of the oldest inhabitant,
and the prices are the lowest. Fine
apples can be bought at fifteen and
twenty-five cents bushel on the
trees, and hundreds of thousands of
bushels are said to be rotting on
the ground. The owner of a large
orchard near Asheville told the
editor of the Enquirer a few days
ago thai where in years past he has
sold fruit at fifty and sixty cents
bushel on the trees. he now has
thousands of bushels going to waste,
During several weeks past he has
been giving apples to his friends by
the wagon load for the trouble of
gathering them off the ground. He
explained that he knew of no way
to save the fruit so as to get any
thing out of it except that he had
put up a quantity of cider, boiled
down at the rate of six barrels to
one. He went on to explain also
that while his apples were the
choicest to be found anywhere,

Edgefeld's Most Valuable Asset.

What is towns most valuable as
set? Is it that which contributes alone
to its material development, or that
which contributes to the moral, in
tellectual and material develop
ment?
Greenwood has railroads, factories,
mills and sundry other plants, but its
citizens have awakened to the fact
that there is lacking an asset that is
of greater value than any or all of
these. While Industrial enterprises
contribute to the material upbuilding
of a community, yet at the same time
they may, and frequently do, lower its
moral standard and the average of citi-
zenship. Our Greenwood friends are
now reaching out for those things
which will contribute to the moral and
intellectual development of the commu-
nifty, as well as to its financial and

the thousands of bad back sufferers

relief may be found. Many lame,
weak and aching back is bad no

Our citizens are telling the good
news of their experience with the
Old Quaker Remedy. Here is an ex-
ample worth reading:
Mrs. C H Key, Wigfall street,
Edgefeld, S. c., says: I suffered
intensely from pains in my back
and head and eyes were also Affect
ed. Doan's kidney pills were finally
called to my attention and were so
highly recommended that I began
the : use. I can say in all earnest
ness that they did me a world Of
good, relieving the trouble that was
caused by my kidneys, in fact, 1
never knew of another remedy that
acts so quickly and effectively.

work in my case that I consider it

Governor Makes Rash Statements.

If he has been correctly reported,
Governor Blease gave Inference to
statements Tuesday while attending
the conference of governors in Rich
mond that are not calculated to pro-
mote the best interests of South Caro-
lima. The governor, after making some
unwise remarks about the failure to
prosecute lynchers, said he has pardon
ed approximately 400 convicts during
the past % months and expects to
make it 800 before his ensuing term
expires. How does he know in advance
that so large a number of cases will
deserve executive clemency? Is not
such a remark made beyond the bor-
~ders of the state, where it will be CIV
,en the widest publicity, calculated to
cause an influx of the criminal class
into South Carolina where they hope,
if convicted of crime, to receive apar-
don? 1t is extremely unfor .unate that
the chief executive will persist in max
ing rash statements that practically
encourage lawlessness. The next leg
islature should enact a law taking from
the governor the power to grant par
dons ad libitum.

Business Prosperous.

Business refuses to suspend because
Woodrow Wilson has bsen elected
President. Even the protected indus
tries have not closed their shops, cut
wages or prepared for free soup kitch-
ems, as was widely advertised some
weeks ago.-Orangeburg Times and
Democrat.
Every plank in the Democratic plat
form is sound one and there is no
good reason why confidence should be
shaken or business affected in any
manner because democracy has tri-
umphed.

Unreasonable Demand.

1t is proposed to reduce the fare on
the railroads in this State to two cents
per mile. Can the railroads haul peo-
Die at that low rate and keep up the
road beds and rolling stock as they
should be?-Orangeburg Times and
Democrat.
At q time when material and labor
cost more than ever before tits unrea-
sonable to demand that railroads re-
duee their passenger rate. Let the
rate remain where it is and require the
railroads to improve the road bed and
give better service. People get what
they pay for. A cheaper rate means
poorer service.

It is a fact no one who has advertis-

commercial upbuilding.
With this end in view Greenwood is
raising fund of $4,000 for the erec-
ton of suitable buildings for male
college, and the fact that they have
their eyes on the South Carolina Co.
Ed ucational Institute is what causes
us considerable concern in connection
with the matter. If Greenwood ap-
preciates the value of male college to
the extent that Eer citizens are willing
to raise $4,000 by private subscrip-
tions, surely our people should after
experiencing this blessing of inestima-
BILE value for Is years will not ALLOW it
to be moved away? We can not hope,
how ever, to keep the S. C. c. l. in
Edgefeld in the face of tempting in
du cements that are being offered by
other places without repairing and
otherwise improving the building that
it now occupies.
The school property has been ade-
quate to the needs of the S. c. c. l. in
the past, but the buildings of eompet-
ing institutions have been so improv-
ed and modernized that our college
will be placed at a disadvantage in cop
ing with them. Furthermore, Edge
field must not be satisfied with anything
short of the best. The Advertiser is
not authorized to speak for President
Bailey, nor are we advised as to his
plans, but we do not believe he can be
induced to leave Edgefeld if our peo-
pie give tangible manifestation of their
appreciation of the institution by maxi
ing such improvements as are needed
in order to make the plant modern in
every particular. While it is true that
the bonds were issued and the building
erected for the S. C. G.. 1. when the
old wooden building was burned, yet
Col. Bailey is not legally or morally
bound to remain in Edgefeld for an in
definite period, especially when stay
ing, after better offers are extended,
would mean heavy financial loss to
him.
Some who are thoughtless may say:
"Let the institution be moved 10 Green
wood if they can make Col. Bailey a
better offer. We can get some other
educator to open school" Men who
can make success of private board
ing school such as Col. Bailey has been
conducting in Edgefeld are scarce, and
it would be exceedingly difficult, if not
to secure some one to con-
duct boarding school in Edgefeld.
While we have the right man, one who
through prosperity and through adver-
sity has proven his ability and real
worth, it behooves US to put forth
every reasonable effort to keep him.
The South Carolina Co-Educational
Institute is Edgefeld's most valuable
asset and it must not be allowed to 60
Our people must come to-
gether and give Col. Bailey every as
that the institu ton will be
provided for, urging him net
to consider inducements that come from
other sources. The S. C. Z. I. has
been success in Edgefeld and there
is no good reason why it will not con-
tinue to grow and prosper here.
