lie Gives
Oregon a
Good Boost

Several months ago Valley Van
Bibber sold his property east of this
city and went to the Northwest, To-
eating near Salem, Oregon He
went to that country with a view
Of buying small tract Of land and
making his home in that country,
provided he found conditions that
were suitable and offering an oppor-
tunity for man of moderate means
to acquire a home.
We have letter from Mr.. Van
Bibber and this indicates that he is
indeed pleased with what he found
in the great Northwest. He has
been in that country seventeen
weeks and liked the country so well
that he made the purchase Of fif-
teen acres Of land a short time ago
and has equipped the place with
buildings similar to those that he had
on his farm in this county. He says
that the people Of that section of Ore
gon have been doing all they can to
induce people to move there and build
homes. The land is first class in
every particular, and grows fine
crops of everything except tropical
fruits. Great tracts of land were
bought and cut into five acre tracts,
these being sold to people at prices
ranging from two hundred to three
hundred dollars per acre, easy pay
ments being given those who desire
them.
Salem is fifty-three miles south Of
Portland and it has the reputation
of being surrounded by some of the
finest land in Oregon. Hundreds of
northern people have been going
there and those small tracts of land
are rapidly filling up, people inn
proving the places, building their
homes and following the truck
fruit and other lines of crop cultiva-
ton. Mr.. VanBibber thinks there
is no better land anywhere and
crops are certain. The past year
all kinds of crops, with the excep-
tion of the prune crop, gave abund.
ant yiold. The season was too wei
for prunes. The vegetables grown
there are Of excellent quality and
bring good prices in the market.
Mr.. VanBlbber writes that there
are many of those small tracts O.
land that can be had and induce
ments are offered the man will
) small means. He can make a small
payment and will be given a chanc,
to pay foS the remainder out Of hi
crop earnings.
. Mr.. VanBibber made his purachas,
on September 8, and has everything
in good shape at this time. He Il

ness and will follow much the samC
line Of work as he followed here
; giving attention to plant growing
as there Is fine field there for tina
class of industry.
Much of the land that has been oc
cupied in that section has been Sc
to fruit and where there are bearing
trees the orchards will bring from
$500 to $500 per acre. Mr.. VanBibbel
says that he would be pleased to givc
information desired to anyone con
cerning that section of the countr!
IL they will write him.
Everything seems to be prosperou
there. The people have plenty o
work and the country is being i'm
proved at a very rapid rate Mr. Van
Bibber sends his best regards to al
inqulring friends.-Tipton, Ind, Trl

SIMS REPLIES TO BLEASE.
Orangeburg Editor Says Blease Charge
Made in Anderson a "Dirty Lie.o


In his address in the court house
at Anderson Saturday, Gov. Blease
paid his respects to Editor Sims Of
the Orangeburg Times and Democrat
saying that he did not see how SEN
ator Tillman could nominate Sims for
United States marshal in the face
of the fact that Sims had to get an
affidavit showing that he had not
edited negro paper in radical times.
In the last issue of his paper, Editor
Sims, under the head Of Drag up an
old lie" replies to the governors
charge in the following warm article:
"ln his harangue at Anderson on
Saturday Governor Bleasc turned his
slush gun loose on the editor Of The
Times and Democrat, who, he said,
had to got ailidavits after being rec
commended for marshall, "that he was
not editing 4 negro paper in radical
times" Even Governor Blcase will
have TO admit that those anidavits.
rs he calls them, knocked out com
IplCtcly that dirty lie, which was start
ed by one Of his plant tools and from
which we have been informed the
/ &overnor had expected great things
/ in the fight to prevent this editor from
being appointed marshal.
1T will be remembered that both
MED making such charge about us.
On the contrary, both Of them said
they had spoken only in compliment
AIRY terms of us, which shows that
gro paper in radical times was con
cOcted by Il fellow who bears 4 most
uEsavory reputation wherever he is
known. lie is said to be a plant tool
of Governor Blcasc, and that is the
reason we suppose the governor re-
fcrred to this dirty lie in his haran-
que at Anderson. We are ready for
any other lies that Governor Bleasc
or any OF the men that do his dirty
work can start on us.
Governor Blcasc hates The Times
and Democrat and it's editor because
Orangeburg county rcpudiated him
last summer, and will loose no op-
pOrtunity to hit them both. We do
not complain Of this, as we intend to
show up his record and let the people
know what manner Of man he is,
and thus try and beat him worse next
summer in this county than he was
beaten last summer All we ask is
that he stick to the truth Governor
Blcaso seems to think chat it is n
crime for man to get up amdavits
to squclch a dirty lie that may be put

JUVENILE HEROISM.
The Brave Mexican Cadets at the De.
fense of ChapuItepeo.

Ienso OF NHdpuiISPoo.
Many incidents in the Mexican war
are still recounted to fire the hearts Of
Mexicans. One of these occurred dur
ing the defense of Chapultepec. a de-
Tense that was as gallant as was the
attack. In this attack forty eight Mex
lean cadets, among others, lost their
lives. The story is a stirring one.
For many years the celebrated castle
OF Chapultepec. where Montezuma held
his barbaric court in the surrounding
groves of expresses, where during near
ly three centuries lived the successive
viceroys OF Spain and where Maximil-
ian made his imperial home. has been
the West Point Of Mexico.
When General Scott had taken the
place by storm and General Bravo had
surrendered, d Mexican cadet only IF
teen years Of age. seeing the flag Of bis
country in peril, most of his comrades
being already slain, climbed the flag
staff. tore the banner from it's place,
wound it around his body and slid
down, intending to plunge over the
precipice in order to save the colors
from falling into the hands Of the en-.
envy.
That act of heroism being Illustrate
the brave boy. with the banner still
wrapped around him. fought until he
was cut in pieces. Forty-eight Of these
schoolboys. ranging in age from four
teen to twenty years, lie buried in one
grave at the foot of the hill. Year by
year the cadets of Chapultepec strew
flowers upon this sepulcher.-Harper's
