After January 1st an expert tobac-

SACK OF MAIL Is LOST.

Gaffncy, Dec. 19.-Gaffney postOfllce
officials and employees Of the Southcrr
railway at this point are anXiously
wondering what became of a sack OF
mail supposed to leave Gaf'ney last
Friday night on northbound train, No.
30. The sack Of mail was closed up
at the usual hour ut the posto1icc and
turned over to the railroad people,
later being hung up on the crane for
nOrthbOund train No. SO at 9.45
o'clock. The station agent saw the
sack hanging on the crane only 10
minutes before the arrival Of the train,
but when it reached here the sack was
gone and has not been seen or heard
of since. a thorough investigation
has taken place by the postoiiicc ofli-
cials assisted by the railroad, but SO
far there has been absolutely no clue
as To what became of the sack. When
asked at the poStoiiiCc yesterday as
to whether the sack contained any
valuables local officials said there were
no registered letters or money orders
contained i'm that mail. but il is, OF
course, Impossible To estimate what
the loss Of some OF the letters may

more than average prosperity; crops
have been excellent, there have been
neither draughts. foods nor pestilcnce
In this section and we come to the
Christmas season with feelings OF
thankfIlness and gratitude TO an all
wise Providence for the mercies and
blessings we have received during the
year. This should. indeed. be u hap
ny Christmas for all.
Not the least of the blessings for
which we should be grateful at this
season Is the dawn of a brighter era
for the working people OF the United
states as the result OF the admins
tration OF the National government by
a truly Democratic president and con-
gress. The burden OF the robber tar
M has been lifted and the masses Of
OF the people are no longer taxed for
the benefit OF the favored few. The
currency system has been reformed
and modernized in the interest OF the
whole people and II Will no longer be
possible for the money trust to op-
press the producing classes by the
manipulation OF banking systems.
The farmers are no longer discriminate
