with the Edgefield people. They should
have the offices and Messrs. Gaines
and Yeldell should resign.-Newberry

The Great Dower Lawyer.
No lawyer in South Caroiinais more
familiar with the law governing Dow
er than Col. W. H. Folk, of Edgefleld.
He has just bad decided by the Su
preme court of South Carolina the
case of Mrs. Fannie R. Miller vs. The
Farmers Lank of Edgefleld in his fa
vor. In this case all the Dower law
from the days of the feudal system to
the Miller-Bank case was given, and
many new points of law were made
by him and sustained by the highest
court in this State. By reading the
Miller-Bank case you will find the
new and old law of Dower, in ail de
tail, and hereafter there will be no
books on Dower, except Scribner on
Dower," and "Folk on Dower." Col.
Folk's speech in the Miller-Bank
Dower case was pronounced by the
Columbia State at the time it was de
livered, as the finest that has been de
livered in the court (Supreme) in
many a day. Great was Col. Folk's
victory in this case, an-l Edgefleld
people may now know wnere to go
and find the law of dower.

MR. EDITOR: Will you please
ask our Cumberland Gap Railroad
officials to give us better railroad
facilities. We want our Charles
ton papers the day they are issued,
we clo not want them to lay over
in Aiken until they are two days
old before we get them. Our old
"hack system" was better than
this.
And then another thing, Mr.
Editor, we sometimes want to come
from Charleston to Edgefield, as
was the case a few days ago, and
when we get to Aiken find that the
Edgefield train has gone. We
think that the Edgefield train,
having only a short distance to
run, should wait a short while
any way, even if the S. C. cfc Ga.,
train should be a little behind
time. If we have got to stay in
Aiken and pay hotel bills or go
around by Greenville to get to
Edgefield, what is thy use of hav
ing a railroad frcm Aiken here.

ROPERS X ROADS.
The News From There and
Thereabouts.
In the Ropers section crope are
looking exceedingly fine consider
ing the quanity of rain we had in
the early spring. We have had
several heavy winds during the
past week doing very little dam
age.
Mr. John F. Atkins has had the
first ripe water melons we have
heard of, and cotton blooms have
become very common. Messrs. J.
F. Atkins, James Reece, Walter
Miller, and Judge John Glover
went seining a few days ago and
it is said they caught about fifty
(50) fish, I know they were all
very fine. I saw them in a 25' lb,
shot 6ack.
The Rev. Mr. Mathews who
preached here on the 2nd Sunday
will begin a revival service here
some time in July.
Colliers Sunday School picnic
will be on July 1st. and will be
largely attended by the Ropers
School.
The Y. M. C. A. at this place
has be< n discontinued and we
have organized the Young Peoples
Literary Union which meets eve
ry Sunday night. The Ropers
Sunday School is in a flourishing
condition numbering about 65,
and one of the best Sunday
Schools I ever saw in the country.
It has the advantage of good
music furnished by the Lyon
Band. This band is composed of
five individuals. Misses Lilla
Mattie and Minnie Lyon, and Mr.
M. D. Lyon and Mr. J. B. Tim
merman. The instruments used
are, organ, 2 b flat cornets, base
and j ead violin.
The many friends of Mrs. J. F.
Atkins will regret to know that
she is quite sick at this writing
but we hope she will be able to be
out again soon.
On the morning of June the
22nd the hearts of Mr. and Mrs.
M. D. Lyon were made happy by
the appearance of a bright eyed
little girl.
Mr. Henry Fleming of Augusta
is spending a few days with Mr.
J. C. Lanham.
I am persuaded to say that in
the near future we will have, a
nice little town at Ropers X
Roads.
PARATUS? .
r>-T-t*" .??
tomembe .?M by the . ernon pi> -, -
for the celebration ot unnai. u s
Day so much enjoyed by all'who
attended. The church was filled
to its utmost capacity, both pews,
and aisles wore crowded, all seem
ed eager to hear and be benefitted
by the exercises.
After the opening song, our
Superintendent (Mr. M. Jordan)
delivered a word of welcome ; and
when Mr. Jordan speaks, he says
in an earnest, meek manner, juit
what he means. When he wel
comes you, he means that you are
welcome.
After the exorcises by the chil
dren, (und they rendered their
pieces well) we had several ad
dresses delivered by visiting gen
tlemen. The children's bright
faces and cheerful manners prov
ed that it was to them a happy oc
casion.
The first address was made by
Mr. P. D. Byrd, "of the Vernon
neighborhood, the subject being
Sunday Schools. He spoke bum
ing words as to the great good de
rived from Sunday Schools. Of
the labors of mothers in training
their children, and the blessed
privilege they enjoy in the Sun
day School, ile went as far back
as Wesley's mother, and when we
think of what she did, it should
stimulate mothers to emulate her
example. He spoke of remote
countries, enjoyiug to some ex
tent, the gospel of Christ, and
end?d with the wish that our
country should be for Christ.
Yesl "Our country f>r Christ."
From centre to circumference.
Next followed Rev. Mr. T. B.
Miller, from Greenwood, Mr. Mil
ler's speech was good and to th9
point. If all young people would
but take his advice, there would
rise up a multitude of noble, use
ful, christi.m men and women. He
urged the importance of doing,
but first of being. Ah! there is
ground for thought. If people
would only realize, that it is not
what they seem, but what they
are ! "True worth is in being, not
seeming." And after being, Mr.
Miller advocates moving. Though
there Are some unsafe movements,
when we are convinced that we
are right, we should move on, and
on, and on. He says, it is a duty
to work six days in each week,
and then we appreciate rest. We
should use our whole strength !
And to young men he said ; be
truthful-be sober-bo honest-be
christians. What better advice
can bo found? We all know un
truths will stick liko a leoch. In
temperance degrades and wrecks
both body and eoul. Dishonesty
will ruin auy one. "It is a great
er compliment to be trusted than
to be loved." What more beauti
ful than to see a young man
or young woman fille d with the
love of Christ? They shed halos
of happiness all aronnd them. No
deliverance from rocks, breakers
and destruction, but by the blood
ot Christ. When the summons
shall come in that great day, "let
us be watching, waiting, and
ready."
The third speaker was Mr. J.
N. Duffie, from Rehoboth Meth
odist church, Mr. Duffie appeals
to people in Sunday Schools, to
co-operate with their Superinten
dents. They need the prayers of
the people, prayers from the heart,
and not from the lips. To the
teachers, he emphasizes the im
portance of patience. "Don't be
too rigid." Prepare the lesson in
tho fear of God, and even illite
rate people can teach golden
truths.
After Mr. Duffie, the congrega
tion was highly entertained by
Mr. E. B. Dorn, a lising young
minister from Callison. He spoke
about ."Opportunity." His deliv
ery was good, and the words well
chosen. But for using so much
space-would go more fully into
details. Will give only a few ex
tracts: "Our lives are opportuni
ties. It is our duty to improve in
tellectually aud morally. No ex
cuse for ignorance. It is a crime.
Don't neglect the cultivation of
the heart. Training of the heart,
is the secret of success. Don't wait
for opportunities, but make them.''
Last, but by no means least,
came Mr. Justus's address on Ed
ucation, Christian Educa t i o n.
Would that I had the power to
pen the thoughts as uttered by
this good man. If there is any
subject that thrills every fibre of
my soul, it is the subject of Ed
ucation. Mr. Justus spoke of the
serious consideration it should
have. Of the risk that, is run by
a young man or young lady when
they start in life without it. Of
books as educators. If people are
deprived of educational advan
tages, they can edncate themselves
in a measure. Mr. Justus, roost
commendably spoke of the im
portance of schools being well
equipped for work. Wished peo
ple throughout the country could
lu concludion, I wish to say
tba* !.h success oj Children's
Day atfVernon, was due largely to J
the efforts and prayers of the
good Superintendent. When the
Vernon people secured the ser
vices of- Mr. Jordan they got a
most valuable christian worker.
May G dd watch over the chil
dren of Vernon, and make them
useful men and women, is the
prayerful wish of the writer.

"Try 'em for Kecaicitrancy."
MR. EniTOR : I have been a'read
ing the articles of "Home Rule"
and "Fair Play" aud "Red Hill,"
as well as the phlegmatic pronun
ciamentos of Gaines and Yeldell,
and I've been a'thinking, and the
more I read and the more I think
of the recalcitrant goings on of
these Greenwood, gentlemen-a
kicking agin giving up their
Edgefield offices, they are a hold
ing onto, and they a living in
Greenwood county-the new coun
ty they worked for like there was
big mouey in it, and for which
Yeldell, it is said, was to git just
for the session of the Legislature
tn-December 1895 $500 if he got
the new county bill through that
session, or $250 if he did'nt ; but
he* did'nt, get her through that
year, and therefore I spose be was
sorter half way left "in tho soup,"
as Capt. Phil. Waters would re
mark. But, I say the more I
think of such oudacious carryings
ou the more riled I git, and the
more monstrous and outrageous
appear Gaines and Yeldell's claim
to our Edgefield offices. I have
heard our old patriarch, Dr.
Hodge Timmermau talk a many a
time about the tyranny of Oliver
Cromwell, but Oliver in all his
despotic acts never dared to heap
so'dire and infernal a monstrosi
ty on any people. A usurping oue
of the fundamental rights of a free
and independent people-home
rule,-and then a making out
they've got a right to hold our
Edgefield offices, because they say
there's no law agin it. Now, Mr.
Editor, if there's no law ??io it, I
would like for these Greenwood
fellers to show some lair for it.
But if we cant reach 'em no
other way, Mr. Editor, we can call
a mass meeting of our citizens
and try 'em for recalcitrancy. And
if that dont make them come
down and out, it will be because
they are utterly devoid of proper
decency and self-respect.
