SO far heard from. They claim
that while he would make a

country. that he would make
the best candidate the Demo

ginning 10 the end Of the cam
paign and have no explanations
to make and no defense for any
hing that Champ Clark has
ever said or done They are
not making war upon any other
candidate, but are urging him
as the best choice the people can
make. simply because they be-
Iieve that his honesty, his loyal
tv, his brilliant attainments and
pure Democracy will win a sig
nal victory.
So Tar as The Republicans are
coHeerned. the fight between
Taft | and Roosevelt is growing
hotter ard hotter ever day. The
'?aft people have now got Col.
Roosevelt on the tender hooks
and have got him to explaining
this and that every day. The
Roosevelt people are bowling
now about the Taft methods of
using Federal patronage and
the steam roller to elect Taft
delegates, forgetting that Roose-
velt did the same thing in 1908
when he was fighting the So
called allies in the Republican
party and nominating Taft for
tie Presidency as his own par
ticular and peculiar candidate.
Il makes the Democrats .augh
70 see this war in the Republi-
can ranks, because it means a
party split wide open and a
Democratic President elected
next November.

Pickens Railroad In Fine Shape

Columbia, S. c.. March lst 1912
Mr.. B. L. Caugnman. Chm.
Railroad Commission of S. G.
Columbia, S, G.
Dear Sir:
On February 29th, 1912 I in
spected the Pickens Railroad of
South Carolina from Easley to
Pickens, S. G.
Generally speaking, I found
this road in good condition.
Fifty pound rails are in use and
while the grades are very heavy
still the roadbed is otherwise in
good condition. The drainage
is good and the cross-ties are ex-
ceptionally fine, as they are en-
tirely of oak. The roadbed is
ballasted nearly its entire length
of more than nine miles with
fine gravel, which makes a sub
stantial roadbed. The railroad
company has recently erected a
new depot at the town of Pick
ems, that is in every way ade.
quate and is a credit both to the
railroad and to the town.
There are a great many trestles
On this short line but the timbers
have been recently repaired and
are in good condition. The
management Of this road has
recently purchased corrugated
iron pipes sufficient to carry the
water under these trestles and
I am informed that they will
soon begin to fill in all trestles
in compliance with instructions
of the Railroad Commission in
it's Circular No. 159 fixing a
limited number of years in
which to complete this work.
I feel that it is we'll to empha-
size the fact that this road has
the distinction of being one of
the few in the country that does
not operate its trains on the
Sabbath day.
Respectfully submitted,
J, G.. Richards,
Commissioner.

Harsh Physic Cause Complaints
You cannot be too careful in

be given, except in emergency
cases. Ordinary pills, cathart-:

more harm than good. They
may cause gripping, nausea land

stroying.
We personally recommend
and guarantee Rexall Orderlies

absolute faith in the virtues of

cine to try it at our risk.

Two Prominent Easley Farmers
Engage in Dispute, and
Killing Fellows.

Friday afternoon, about six
o'clock, a difficulty occurred be-
tween r. A.. Aunt and John FL
lison, two prominent farmers
residing about three miles below
Easley, the result Of which was
that Hunt was shot and killed
by Ellison. Details of the un-
fortunate affair are not obtaina-
bic, but it is reported that the
two men, who had formerly been
friands, met at Ellison's store,
where a dispute arose over some
trivial matter. Hot words fol-
lowed when, it is said, Hunt
struck Ellison With something,
and Ellison fired, killing Hunt.
Ellison gave himself up to the
authorities, was carried to An
derson and committed to jail, as
the tragedy occ,- just over
the line in that county. Ellison
has retained Hon. J. P. Carey,
of Pickens, to represent him.

 Unsatisfactory.

A summary of the condition of the cotton crop in Arkansas, issued by the Now York Journal of Commerce.. was sent ou1 ill the form of a bulletin yesterday. It reads as follows:
 Reports from Arkansas are very unsatisfactory. On account of oVcr- flows and wet. cold weather, much re- planting has been necessary, and be- cause of the baekWarIness of the sen son, some correspondents consider it too early to estimate even approXi- mately acreage or condition. Poor stands are universally reported. Es- inmates of percentage of condition run rather low, and the season is from two 10 three weeks late. A number of sections are now needing rain. Weather has been fine for the past two weeks. and q number of sections report wonderful improvement"
