On and after July 1st. next, it will be
unlawful in South Carolina to sell or
r»ffor for sale any pistol weighing less
than three pounds and being less than
iwenty-two inches long. That means
no portable pistol can be sold in the
state. Is this a movement on the part
of Tillman to popularize the pitchfork
as a weapon of offense and defense?—

The law which compels men to go to
i lie court house and hang around there
for days and days as witnesses at their
own expense, unless they live outside
of the county, is as unjust as it could
well be, and the state of Georgia
to be ashamed of being a party to
gross injustice.—Eastman

FARMERS NOT OVERLOOKED.
The farmers, it seems, are not to
nverlooked in the establishment
trusts. It is stated that within
weeks a trust company will be
in New York city for the purpose
assisting farmers in holding their
for better prices. It is to be
the Trust Company of the
and its capital will be $1,000,000.
The business of this trust will be
erect warehouses in different parts
the county and to loan money on
ducts of the farm stored therein.
money will not be loaned directly by
the trust That institution will
certificates on the products stored, and
the hanks will take these certificates
as security for loans. In other words,
the trust will enable farmers to get
loans on their crops in cases where it
is the desire to hold crops for
prices.
The scheme is a good one for
trust, but will it prove to be for
farmers? That is a questson that
not be determined without a trial
the plan. It would seem,
that by the time the farmer pays sto
rage and insurance charges and
the interest on the money he
*>n his warehouse receipts he will not
be much ahead or where he would
been if he had sold his cropB as soon
harvested, even if he does get a
siderably higher price for them.
It is sf, j.l that the first warehouses
the trust ill be erected in the
section with the views of handling
ton. There are a good many
farmers who believe that money is
be made by holding cotton. As a
ter of fact, however, it is doubtful if
farmer who holds his cotton fares
better, taking one year with
than the one who sells it as soon as jt
harvested. But owing to the
i hat it is a good plan to hold cotton,
is probable that the trust will do
thriving business, for awhile at least.
The men at the head of the trust
well known in business circles in
York city, and in New Orleans.

presidents and other men of

HE RUN A NEWSPAPER.

Battle Creek preacher tested the
of hard times on his congregation.
the conclusion of one of his
lie said:
“Let all persons in this house
are paying their debts stand up.”
Instantly every man. woman
child—with one exception—arose
their feet. The preacher seated
and said:
“Now let every person who is
paying his or her debts stand
The exception noted, a
gry-looking individual, clothed in
last summer's suit, slowly assumed
perpendicular position.
“How is it, my friend,” asked
minister,“that you are the only
in the congregation that is unable

CLINCH’S REMARKABLE MAN.
Perhnp* not a morn remarkable man
lives in the United States than Mr J.
C. Kirkland, of Homerville, says, the
correspondent of the Morning News
from that place. He was born on a
little farm in Appling county, in this
state, seventy-eight years ago. He
went through two wars, and did noble
work as a brave private in both. The
first was with the Seminole Indians, in
1838, and for which he is now drawing
a P en,ion from the government. The
other was in the war between the
*tates. He went through both and was
K' vei1 honorable discharges. He did
not receive a single wound and never
asked for a furlough.
Clinch county was organized in 1860,
and he was the first clerk of the Supe
rior court. He lias been notary public
thirty years consecutively, and was
commissioned a few days ago for four
more. He lias also been bailiff of the
grand jury of this county for twenty
years. He has been married twice, and
is the father of fourteen children, ten
of whom are now living. He never
whipped a one of them. Some of his
most remarkable habits are, he has
never smoked a cigar, or pipe, or taken
a chew of tobacco in his life ; never has
taken a mouthful of chicken, and but
little, if any, of any other fowl; never
had occasion to take a single dose of
any kind of medicine; never used
glasses and can read any print, and to
day is hale and hearty, full of life and
cheerful reminiseenses.
In speaking of Ware county, he was
on the jury when the court house was
at Waresboro, and the court room was
nothing but a log cabin, and the jury
retired to the woods to make up their
verdicts. The grand jury held its ses
sions in an improvised pole barn
nenr-by.

CHILD
Does your horse “feel his
oats”? What a difference be
tween the grain-fed and the
grass-fed horse! The first
strong and full of ginger, the
second flabby, weak and tired
out before he begins. The
feeding makes the difference.
Children arc not alike either.
One is rosy, bright-eyed, full
of life and laughter, another is
pale, weak and dull. The feed
ing again is responsible.
Sickly children need special
feeding. They don’t “feel their
oats”. Scott’s Emulsion adds
just the right richness to their
diet. It is like grain to the
horse. The child gets new
appetite and strong digestion.
Scott’s Emulsion is more
than food. It is a strong
medicine. It rouses up dull
children, puts new flesh on thin
ones and red blood into pale
ones. It makes children grow.
Scott’s Emulsion makes ordi
nary food do its
duty.
This picture represents
the Trade Mark of Scott’s
Emulsion and is on the

PRESIDENT’S ORANU-FATHER.
Col. R. T. Nesbitt, in Early County
News: “Were you aware of the fact
that the grandfather of President
Roosevelt, Col. Bullock, owned and
managed a plantation in Early county
and was the owner of a large number
of negroes? Col. Bulloch owned what
is now known as the Wood place,
which with the negroes, was after
ward purchased by my father—my
father selling it to Prof. Wood, then of
he University of Georgia. As a little
boy I had Col. Bulloch’s visits to my
parents most forcibly impressed upon
me, from the face that whenever he
would come to see us, owing to the
limited room and bed accommodation,
I would have to occupy a shelf attach
ed to the side of the house, used ordi
narily by my good mother for storing
extra bed clothing. The Bullock’s had
a summer residence in Roswell county.
My father bought Col. Bullock’s land
and negroes and until a few years ago
many of the old negroes were still liv
ing. When I was last in Early some of
the descendants of those old people
were living on the Erin plantation and
some with the Rambos on Spring creek.
The Bullocks moved from Roswell to
Philadelphia, where Mr. Roosevelt a
prosperous New York merchant met
and won Miss Martha Bullock, the
mother of our President.
