DIR. CLARK WILL SUPPLY.
Columbia Divine Will Assume Pastor
ate of Presbyterian Church.

The local Presbyterian church has
been very fortunate in securing the,
consent of the Rev. Melton Clark, D.
D., of Columbia, to fill the pulpit of
the Bamberg church. Dr. Clark will
assume the pastorate of the church
here on October l. q
DR.. Clark will teach in the Presby-
terian college, Columbia, and will re-
side in that city, but will conduct SER
vices each Sunday at Bamberg and
Denmark, arrangements having been
made whereby weekly services will
be held hereafter instead of semi
monthly, as heretofore.
Under the pastorate of the Rev.
P. w. DuBose, the Bamberg Presby-
terian church was a part of field
composed of Bamberg, Denmark,
Blackville and Barnwell churches.
The field has now been divided, and
DR.. Clark will supply the Bamberg
and Denmark churches, conducting
one service each Sunday at each Of
the churches.
DR.. Clark is no stranger in Bam-
berg. He has frequently visited the
local Presbyterian church. He is one
of the best known ard ah!est divines
in the state, and under his direction
the good work instituted by the form
er pastor, who has gone to Whining
ton, n c., will doubtless be continued.

Getting to Market.

Many farmers have missed high
prices by hauling products with teams
Thev we're beaten to market by those
who owned trucks. The farmers who
owned trucks sent all their products
to market and received top prices for
them. This glutted the market ana
prices dropped. One farmer in my
community. with his truck, secured
$500 more for his crop than his
neighbor who hauled with teams

Thus Mr.. Aver has lsft'a very neat
profit of 5000. AS there is only the
expense of growing the melons, pay
ing the fertilizer bill, use of land,
cost of hauling and loading, etc., to
be paid out of this profit, no doubt
Mr.. Aver will have nice profit of
several naughts left.

THE EVIL THAT LIVES AFTER

THE CONSTITUTION is Article 24 which well in
 tended to prevent raids the public treasury, ars from activity of those to whom legislative had been trusted.
 Article 24 says that neither the General Assemblyf have to increase the compensation any public employee to take effect during the continuance in office of whose salary might be creased thereby"
 The article is plain enough. There can't be any mistake about it.
 time the judges wanted pay. The General Assembly raised their salaries while they office They took the pay taxpayer brought suit By the judges passing upon their emouments wiped out to all intents and purposes Section 2f
 Following in these footsteps of distinguished Jurlsts the members of the Board of Aldermen voted themselves last night annual salary of $9OO each.
 Prior the judges dealt with Article 2 it would tecton dead udcay slaughtered and legislative body is too humble to raise its pay at discretion
 The defense that it is not violation of aldermen pay themselves $9OO for the lawyers the board Since getting nohing it is not increasing pay to give 5000 each"
 The evil of the decision in the judges lives after It.
 If alderman paid $ for his services and he himself year his compensation would be increased a year. compensation increased at a This is ursc reasoning.
 Twenyfour adermen serving for compensation in hon. and public recognition aldermen of Bridgeport have done since Bridgeport became city, receive in cash compen saon nothing but have voted themselves S2 500
 magicians. They get it, but they don't get it.
 Presently Bridgeport will have horde of additional office holders all drawing compensation all playing professional politics making it little harder for the ordinary citizen to make both ends meet
 There argument payment of aldermen that equally lie for the payment of commissioners and hitherto considered it honor to devote portion of their time to the service of the city
