The public offices are in good repair, the Court House is in good repair. We again earnestly recommend a yard in the rear of Court House be cleaned, and put in a sanitary condition. In the present state the beal th of the officers in the court bouse and the jail are in danger. The sewerage pipe running from the court room should be. made to conduct the sewerage, and slopes to some ditch, and the use of this yard for purposes it is now being used should bo prohibited. N. T.

The Cotton Growers Associa- tion was organized when cotton was selling at seven cents a pound and ander its organization, while the people of Edgefield county have taken little iuterest in it, we have seen the price of cotton un- der increased production advance until it is to-day selling for 18$ cents. We do not need to organ» ize a cotton, growers trust, but let us take a look at the world's map and prepare to execute properly and in a businesslike manner the trust which nature has entrusted to us. It is our mission to clothe tbe world, and how much longer shall we allow it to be admited in evory quarter that the man who gro we-sott on is the poorest paid man of all occupations. If the world's, cotton growers are not properly compensated, it is large- ly their own fault. We apk our people to meet Mr. W. J.ÏGaines at tbe places men- tioned dn the dates fixed and c>: operate mth him according to) their bnsf judgment and assist bim in organizing the cotton growers of our county.
