not only interested but enthusiastic.
Be enthused over the educational out
look for the town to the extent that
you will be constantly telling those
w ith whcr. you meet of The splendid
educational advantages which the town
is offering not alone to the people in
the district but to the people of the en-
tire county. While the High School
will not, the first year at least, advance
pupils as far as the S. c. C. L., yet
there is no questioning the fact that
for thoroughness, solid, satisfactory
work, as far as it goes the High School
course will equal in every respect the
training that was given at the S. c. c.
1. Tell your friends this in order that
they may be informed as to the splen-
did educational advantages that Edge
field will offer to the people of the
county in the future.
Another excellent and very inviting
feature is the tuition will be absolute
" free to all who come. While there
will be no boarding department in con-
nection with the school, young people
can secure board here at reasonable
rate in many Of the homes of Edge
field. Do not fail to make known
these splendid advantages to others
whenever an opportunity is presented.

Organized Effort Needed.

Call it Business League, Board of
Trade, Chamber of Commerce or by
whatever name you please. Edgefield
needs an organization by and through
which the interests of the town can be
advanced. Spasmodic efforts by indi-
vidual citizens can accomplish but little
along the line of town and community
development What every town needs,
and what ry-wide-awake town al
ready has, is an organization through
which all of the citizens can work to-
gether with a common purpose.
When information is asked by an
outsider, a would-be investor, con-
cerning Edgefeld, whose duty is it to
furnish the desired information? When
it is possible to secure some new en-
terprise for the town, who feels au-
thorized to take the initial step? If
we had an organization, meeting
could be called and such matters fully
discussed, suitable committees being
appointed to act for the town.
An electric railroad is in contempla-
ton between Graniteville and Colum-
bia. If our people were to take the
matter up in earnest with the promo
ters, it is within the range of possibili-
ties that Edgefeld could be included in
the chain of towns that will be connect
ed by the trolley.
''There is a tide in the affairs of men
Which taken at the flood leads on to
fortune;
Omitted, all the voyage Of their life
Is bound in shadows and miserles.
AS it is with individuals, so it is with
towns. Not many years will pass be-
fore this section will be adequat tely
supplied with railroads and none OF
them will come this way unless our
people exert themselves. When sur
rounding towns shall have secured
these roads, leaving Edgefield high and
dry. then we will be "bottled" for all
| time.
The first step in an undertaking OF
this kind is to provide an organization
in and through which to work. Why
not call meeting of our citizens at
once and talk the matter over? Nc
harm can result and possibly much
lasting good will result from such g
conference of our business men.

Issues Injuctions ia Dam Site
Case.

Augusta, Ca, June ls.-Petition
for injunction filed in the United
States court in Charleston by Will
liam H. Fleming. representing him
self, E. F. Verdery, H. G. Middle
ton and w. E. Andrews, against
the Georgia Carolina Power COM
pany, which is developing the $780,
900 power at Stevens Creek, re-
suited in Judge Smith granting
temporary injunction and setting
the hearing for perm anent injunc-
ton on Wednesday of this week in
Charleston. The petitioners own
42 acres Of land above the dam
which they hold at such alleged ex-
cessiye prices the company refused
to pay and proceeded under its
charter to begin condemnation. The
land owners hold they have not the
right of condemnation and ask The
court for injunction thereon.
The company has acquired eve.
ry foot of property it needs in
Georgia and South Carolina other
than these 42 acres.

Capt. W. E. Gonzales Honored.

President Wilson has appointed Capt.
W. 6. Gonzales, the editor of The
State, minister to Cuba. Of the hun
dreds of appointments that the presi-
dent vii make not one of the appoint
ees will be more deserving of the hon
or bestowed than Capt. Gonzales. For
the past twelve years he has been
among the foremost workers for Dem
ocratic victory. While Capt. Gonzales
deserved, and doubtless could have Sc
cured. a position of greater honor had
he consented for his friends to present
his name to the president, we are
constrained to believe that because OF
the service which his distinguished
father rendered for Cuban indepen-
dence he preferred this post to
some of greater prominence. Capt.
Gonzales is not a selfish, self-seeking
man. He would prefer a position
which would enable him to render high
de gree of service to one more proml-
nently in the limelight but without the
opportunity for service. His unques-
toned ability, sound discretion and
fore eful personality, will make 1t easy
for him to fill the position with honor
to himself, to his state and to the ma
tional government.

Our High School.

No one in Edgefield who is informed
as to what has been done doubts for a
moment that we will have irst-class
High School to open the latter part of
September. If this school is to be all
that it should be and all that it is pos
sible for it to be, it must have the en-
thusiastic support of the people. Not
alone of the parents but of all of the
people. 1t must be regarded as the
school of every white person in the
Edgeield school district.
Furthermore, if this school is to fill
the place that it should fill in the edu-
cational system of the county, the peo-
plo who make and support it must be

C onscienceless Quacks.

Occasionally in the weekly papers ano
cutie frequently in some of the daily
papers one sees large advertisements
display ed in bold type calling attention
to the free treatment that is offered
for chronic diseases by men represent
ing themselves to be celebrated spe-
cialists who never fail to effect cure.
These men are in our opinion quacks
of the first water. They are not coun-
tenanced by men of good standing in
the medical profession, nor should they
be permitted to thus deceive and de-
fraud suffering and overcredulous hu-
manity. We have never been able to
nderstand why reputable journals will
allow their columns to be used to de-
fraud their readers. There should be
law protecting unsuspecting persons
from quacks and frauds of this kind.
When in need of medical treatment
call in your family physician. If he is
not equipped for relieving your physi-
cal ills he will direct or carry you to
some specialist who is thoroughly rella-
BILE. Never under any circumstances
jeopardize your life and your purse by
consulting conscienceless quack,
whose advertisement bears evidences
of dishonesty or unreliabiliry, to say the
least of it, on its very face.

Credit at the bank is one of the
greatest assets farmer can have. II
Increases his ability to buy and sell; il
places him in the class with other bu.

business men; it places a certain guar,

After a long illness Mr.. q. G.
West died at the state sanitarium
Saturday May 81. The interment
was held at Berea church, Rev. P.
p. Blalock conducting the funeral.
1t is a custom to eulogize the dead,
but certainly no eulogy could do
Justice to this good man. In maj 7
things he gave evidence Of the high
est type of christian life not only
in paternal duties devolving: upon
him but in following the precepts
of his Savior in the example set of
never mentioning his friends and
acauaiptance save in terms of
respect. No slander or unkind COM
ment on others was ever heard from
his lips. He was no lover of gos-
sip, but confined himself to the
more commendable conversation
which tended to the injury of no
on. He was for several years afflicted
but he did not murmur at the de-
crees of the most high, and when
at last paralysis fastened it's re-
morseless fetters around his weak
ened and attenuated form he quiet
ly acquiesced in Heavens decree,
and laying his head upon his
Saviour's plying bosom, breathed
out his life in quietude and peace,
without murmur or groan, CIV
ing FULL testimony of his acceptance
with his Savior and his God. He
is survived by a wife and three
children, Mrs. M. e. Etheredge,

Reports of 10000 Cases Of
Kidney Trouble, Some of
Them Edgefield Cases.

Each of some 5000 newspapers
of the United States is publishing
from week to week, names of people
in its particular neighborhood, who
have used and recommended Doan's
kidney pills for kidney backache,
weak kidneys, bladder troubles and
urinary disorders. This mass of
proof includes over 10000 testimo
mails. Edgefeld is no exception.
Here is one of the Eige6eld cases.
W B Paul, clerk, Butler street,
Edgefeld, S. c., says: I was both
cred by kidney complaint from
childhood and it got worse after I
had the measles about twelve years
ago. I suffered from acute pains
throughout my body and I had much
trouble from weakness from the
kidneys and bladder. Doan's kidney
pills were just what I needed. driv-
ing away my pains and strengthen
ing my kidneys and bladder. When
ever I have felt in need of a kidney
medicine since, Doan's kidney pills
bave come to my aid. I consider
them the best kidney medicine to
be had"
