A LOST SHEEP.

The City of Abbeville with a pop
ulation of'six thousand, and with
property assessed for taxation at one
and a half millions of dollars, pro-
poses to build five miles of streets
for the use of it's own people.
The COLUMBIAN State proposes that
the people of Abbeville shall contri-
butte to the building of a system of
roads in sparsely settled communi-
ties which are to be supported in
part by taxes on all the people of
the state, and which can be so sup
,orted, if enough roads are built to
amount to anything, only by the
'evying of rate of taxation entirely
out of proportion. to the benefits to
accrue.
The State claims to be unable to
'ee any difference between the two
proposals. We fear The State is a
lost sheep.

repudiate its obligations. Can we re-
T..
pudiate ours? ..~.-..
If we do not subscribe to this last
call which is now made upon US, we
must not forget that the money
must be paid. If it is not raised by
subscriptions to the Victory Loan it
must be raised by a heavy rate OF
taxation. Do the people who have
remained at home and who have
grown rich through the exigencies
of war believe it is honest, now that
the soldiers have returned, to say
to them, eve refuse to do our part,
we demand a heavy rate of taxation
.vhich will force you as we'll as us
to bear portion of the expenses of
maintaining yourselves while you
fought for us?"
We do not believe that the people
of the City Of Abbeville and of Alb
beville County will say so. Our boys
have won great fame for us on the
battlefield. We are all proud of
.hem. We have given them a glad
hand on the homecoming. Let us
be sincere in our protestations, and
act the part of men. We cannot do
so unless we subscribe for every dol
lar assigned US in the Victory Loan
drive, and let US not think that we
can have the good opinion of these
soldiers unless we are. willing to
carry our part of the burdens. Cam
outage will not work, The soldiers
will not be fooled.

The public is fair judge. The old
saying is that you might fool all the
people some time, and you might
fool some of the people all the time
but you can't fool all the people all
the time. Any enterprise to succeed
must have true merit behind it. The
merit in hotel is in giving service.
When travelling man comes into
a hotel he is coming into his home.
This home must welcome him and
make him feel that he is entitled to
every courtesy, attractive bedroom,
good meals and prompt service.
The home people should feel that
the Eureka Hotel is one big home
where they are wanted and welcome
at all times, for a party, banquet,

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that so many products that are ex.
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself. as like
an endless chain system the remedy 10
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of il.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. Klmer's Swamp.Root, Q
preparation l have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,

most every wish in overcoming kidney,

nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
