league are able to make good their
promise that the next legislative ses-
sion will only last for thirty days, and
more constructive legislation will be
passed in that time than at any pre-
vious session, it will be welcome in
novation, and at the same time be a
relief from the regulation "soldiering"
which has been so much a part of the
sessions Of recent years.-New Rock

Good Farming

1t is gratifying to US to tell Of
the successful farming of
young farmer, Mr.. II. M. Jane
son. who owns and resides on
the James Lathem place near
the old Arnold mill, four or FIVE
miles northeast of Easley. Mr..
Jameson made the past year
on a two and one-l half horse crop
twenty seven bales Of cotton,
which sold for more than 81 500,
besides $4,000 worth Of cotton
seed, cribbed over 800 bushels of
corn, and made 24O bushels Of
peavine hay, besides plenty of
vegetables of all kinds to do his
family. When it is known that
Mr. Jameson is a cripple, hav-
ing only one hand, his success
seems more remarkable. 1t
shows what energy and perse-
verance will accomplish even
under adverse circumstances. -

NV. Hester on Woman Suffrage

Editor Of The Pickens Senti
mel: If you will give me space
in your valuable columns l will
have a say on Woman Suffrage.
1t is coming no matter what
any man or set of men may do
or say. When the old heredi-
tary slave spirit grows out of
women they will enact and ex-
ecute the laws. She is major
in number, unsurpassed in in
tellect, superior IN morality, and
what she lacks in physical abil-
ity she overbalances in influ-
ence. Then why should she he
governed by men? Note. if you
please, where women have come
from in ibe last nineteen hun
dred years and you will see at a
glance where she will 90 in a
few more decades. She is slow
ly but surely emancipating her
self and will soon be on a par
with men, and then superior.
Some of the youngest readers of
this will live to see all this come
true. Votes for women was
started by an intidel, where all
freedom has come from. Tom
Paine was the first to advocate
freedom for America; free press
and free speech were started by
infidels, negro slavery was abol-
ished by the plans laid by inf
dels, Bob Ingersoll being one
of the greatest exponents. The
theory that Man shall rule his
house" and that Woman shall
be subject to her husband' are
fast passing behind the onward
march of intelligence and women
shall be free and she will be
woman no longer and shall as
sumo another name for her sex.
Repudiate any Of this if YOU
please and we will bring the
proof for every assertion.
Respectfully,
| Easley. M. w. HESTER.

to the large advertisement of
Hobbs Henderson GO. in this
paper. They are announcing a

prices are most interesting. But
the best part of it is that all

through the summer the own
ers will sell them at a sacrifice.
This sale will mean the saving
of many dollars to the people
