In January 1911, Coleman Livingston Blease was inaugurated governor. That day in traveling the road of his life he came to a place where it forked. He was at perfect liberty to take either the right or the left hand highway where the road forked. He had to make a choice. While the choice was being made his destiny trembled in the balance. In his inaugural his decision was shown as to the path he would travel. He could have pitched his address upon a high and lofty place, he could have forgiven his enemies, poured balm upon wounded spirits and proclaimed a purpose to be what a governor should be, the governor of all the people. That was one road he could have taken and by taking it he would have lost enemies, not friends. He would have confounded those who were predicting that his administration would not add to the peace, happiness and prosperity of the state. They would have been struck dumb. He had a wonderful opportunity to seek to prove he was a broad patriot and not a narrow partisan. He could have made thousands who had voted against him feel that he had been misjudged or misrepresented, or both. Had he calmly and temperately discussed public questions and invited the backing of those who had opposed his election, had he urged them to support him in his work for the progress of South Carolina, he would have made himself the strongest man in the state. What a golden chance he had that day, such a chance as seldom comes more than once in a lifetime and to but few men at that.

But Blease chose the other road. Elected as a factional candidate he preferred to be a factional governor and his inaugural address was far more of a stump speech than a state paper. Right then and there he made it certain that his triumph would be temporary. Had a stronger man, the more versed in politics and more forceful on the stump, opposed him two years ago, we would have had a one term governor. But he managed to get a re-election by a narrow margin and in his second term was even more highly partisan then in his first.

And now the [stormy price?] of South Carolina politics [blurry] to private life, but not to the vantage point of a county that he can surely carry as has been the case heretofore when he has suffered defeat in state politics.

It is a pity that he chose the road he did. A man with the magnetism he must have [weld?] to himself so large a personal following had great chance for effective serevice, if [blurry] have broad vision and high ideals. ------------------------o------------------------- HASTY JUDGMENT.

When the War started, because he is the head of a great military power Kaiser Wilhelm was generally thought to have estimated to use his power to protect it. Though inexorable logic proves Germany had everything to lose and nothing to [cut off]

[column 2]

war for military glory and aggrandizement. One of the first to blame Germany was Andrew Carnegie, who urged all men of peace to hold Kaiser Wilhem guiltily accountable for the war. But, after reflection, Carnegie's views are changing, as are those of thousands of others, who are beginning to see the monstrous improbability of the charge that a nation which has never warred for territorial aggrandizement and which was prospering more than any other should desire a war which would destroy its prosperity and might even cause a loss of its independence. After thinking it over, Carnegie sent this message to the London Times for publication:

'The German Emperor has not been proven guilty. I believe he has been more sinned against than sinning. Rulers are seldom overruled, but they are unable to control conditions of international quarrels. History alone will record the truth. The Emperor, who alone of all living monarchs preserved peace for twentysix years, is now entitled to the benefit of the doubt.'

When it is all over and impartial historians review The War, we feel sure that the German emperor will get better than a Scotch verdict of "not proven" as to the charge that he was responsible, directly or indirectly, for causing the cataclysmal conflict. ------------------------o------------------------- THEN AN NOW.

Fifty years ago today the world's first railway mail car was given its official test. Two mice were responsible for the idea. Before that day the mail was distributed according to addresses at certain designated postoffices, which usually were the distributing points of whole states. It was slow and laborious work. At one of these distributing points, Green Bay, Mich., a pair of mice made their home in a pouch that had lain in the postoffice for several days. When the pouch finally reached its destination, near the upper shores of Lake Superior, the recieving postmaster found not only the rodent home-seekers, but also a large family of little mice. They had made beds of chewed-up letters. The post-master reported the matter to the Chicago office and sent along the mice as an exhibit, which are received by George B. Armstrong, the assistant postmaster. To preven a repetition of such an occurance, Armstrong sought to speed up the mail service, and finally evolved the idea of having the mail distributed on the trains while in transit. The plan was ridiculed. One man declared: "The government will have to employ a regiment of men to follow the trains to pick up the letters that would be blown out of the cars." However, the first postal car, an ordinary baggage car equipped with racks and pigeon holes, made the initial run from Chicago to Clinton, Iowa, fifty years ago today.

Today every nation in the civilized world is distributing a large part of its mail matter in railway mail cars. In the United States over 18,000 railway mail clerks are separating over 90 per cent of all the mail originating in this country and a large volume coming from foreign lands. They have saparated in a single year nearly 23,000,000,000 pieces of mail matter, not including registered mail. They travel an aggregate distance of 500,000,000 miles every year on the 27,000 domestic transportation routes having a combined mileage of 450,000 miles. The service has been raised to the highest point of efficiency today and the present ratio of errors in distribution has been reduced to one in 10,000 pieces of mail. The clerks are expected to distribute the mail so that there wil be no rehandling in the postoffices of large cities and to separate it into packages, corresponding with each mail carrier's soute in the cities. In the case of the largest cities they must separate it according to section of sub stations. Considering the speed at which the clerks sort the mail, the swaying of the train plunging along at 50 miles per hour, the thousands of railway connecting points, the locations of over 60,00 postoffices in the United States, and the illegibility of the hand written addresses, it becomes a marvel how the railway mail clrk can work without a greater proportion of errors. ------------------------o------------------------- THE BIRDMEN.

The great difficulty about making intelligent comment upon the progress of The War is the lack of authentic information upon which to base comment. Not only are false reports being sent out from some official [blurry], magnifying skirmishes into battles and turning defeats into victories, but correspondents unable to get to the scene of conflict or to obtain news are eveidently drawing upon fertile imaginations to earn their pay. To further complicate the situation, some newspapers in this country are publishing as cablegrams from Europe stores which bear intrinsic evidence of having been composed in their own offices. Only omniscience can tell what is true and what is false in the maze of alleged [cut off]

[column 3]

the early days of the war Raoul Garros, an intrepid French aviator, heroically rammed a German Zeppelin with the biplane in which he was flying, gladly sacrificing his life in order to inflict greater loss upon the enemy. We were also told that every French aviator had sworn to do the same thing when he had the opportunity.

Many, many volumes could be filled with the editorials lauding Garros' feat that were published in this country. For instance the Slate went into ecstasies over the "spirituality of courage" shown by Garros and we were assured that only the French could show such "spirituality of courage," whatever that may be. If Garros really performed the feat ascribed to him it was worthy of all praise save that which made an invidious comparison. Bravery, even of the highest type, is not monoplized by any race, color, nationality or creed. All can rise to the highest heights of daring or sink to the deepest depths of cowardice.

It seems terrible to rob the French of the glory of that exploit of Garros, of which American papers printed pictures drawn by imaginative artists, but it may never have occurred at all. The New York Times publishes a dispatch from the Hague in which a Hollander paper is quoted as stating that it had heard from a friend of Garros to the effect that the latter is alive and well and never rammed a Zeppelin as reported.

Better authenticated, because coming from the enemies' camps, are the stories of the heroism of a German acronaut who, during the greate battle on the Franco-Belgian frontier, hovered over the lines of the allies, despite all their efforts to destroy him, and signaled to the Germans the location of the allies, so that they, knowing the exact range, could place their shells where they would do tremendous execution. While that was not as spectacular as the deed credited to Garros, it was far more effective and needed substantial courage and not the supreme resolution of a moment's heroism. ------------------------o------------------------- A GOOD EXAMPLE.

The announcement that the Southern, the South's greatest railroad system, has just let additional contracts for double-tracking and that this work is to be begun immediately will be welcomed not only because of its promise of needed and speedy improvement of this section's transportation facilities but as a demonstration of the confidence in the soundness of conditions in this country. The millions it will spend in the South for its improvements will be small in their benefit to our business in comparison with the good that will flow from the practical example of faith in the future of this section and in the present of the whole country. If we all keep our heads and go steadily or with execution of our plans and purposes, just as if there were no war in Europe, no harm can come to this country from ther interruption of its commerce with European countries. Hurrah for Southrn. Every dollar spent now in improvements is a dollar doubly well invested. May the Southern's example be followed by all of us to the limit of our abilities. ------------------------o------------------------- A SAFETY CHECK.

The charge against Blease was that he stirred up factionalism. We hope there will be no other factionalism. There should be no hard feelings. The majority decided and there should be acquiescence in its will.

In some of his speeches, Governor Blease made threats that if he were defeated he would do direful things during the remainder of his term as Governor.

We trust that that was just campaign thunder. It will be deplorable if bad feelings are stirred up. But if common sense does not lead Blease to accept the result gracefully, the tremendous anti-Blease majority in the legislature will doubtless make him sit up and take notice. He would not want it recorded in the legislative journals of this state that he was impeached. The general assembly will meet and organize before he goes out of office as govenor. It is said that nine out of ten members of the new house are anti-Blease. ------------------------o------------------------- ONE BRIGHT SPOT.

War has its courtesies as well as its necessities. When Germany faced a world in arms rather than desert her eldest friend in the family of nations, it became a military necessity for her armies to pass therough Belgium. Though the Belgians are not friendly to the Germans and were expected to side with France and England, Germany doubless regretted that force was necessary. A nation fighting for its life against a colassal combination of foes could take no chances. The Belgians were told that if they permitted passage of the German armies no harm would be done them and payment would be made for all damage, and none of their territory would be taken at the [cut off]

[column 4]

not, their neutrality beem violated.

The first [occasion?] to passage of the German armies was made at Liege, where there was a gallant defense of the forts. In command of Liege was Generam Liman, who had never seen active service. He held his post bravely. When the fort in which he was stationed was smashed by the terrific German artillary fire, he was found pinned down by debris. Taken before Gen. von Emmich, he offered his sword in token of surrender. It was handed back to him as evidence of the appreciation of his bravery. That courtesy is one of the few bright spots in the sombre picture of The War that have been coming to us.. Brave men appreciate the courage of their opponents. ------------------------o------------------------- PUT IN A HOLE.

Over in North Carolina the Republicans have certainly put the Democrats in a [state?] by promulcating a more Democratic platform than the Democrats themselves put forth. The Republic platform contains planks advocating principles and policies that the Democratic masses, though not the Democratic houses, of North Carolina favor. The Tarheel Democratic papers are having a hard time trying to make the worse appear the better platform. For instance, here is a paragraph from the Durham Herald:

"While the Republicans declared for a state-wide legalized primary, there is no telling whether they did this because the wanted it or simply in the hope of embarrassing certain Democratic leaders."

If we were editing a Democratic paper in North Carolina, we would freely and frankly admit that, thanks to the manipulation of the Democratic bosses our party has the worse plaform , once election of the Democratic candidates on the basis of comparison of pas administrations in North Carolina by Republicans and Democrats and wage a vigorous campaign to drive out of power in the Democracy those politician responsble for the anomalous situation of the Democratic party going into a campaign with a less Democratic platform that that of their Republican opponents. ------------------------o------------------------- The change in the French cabinet is just what was to be expected when the French began to be defeated. The alibi is being prepared. Despite the censorship, it is beginning to leak out that some of the French troops have no behaved well in action and that the administrative end of the military department of the French government was deficient. The change of the cabinet is said to have been due to a desire to give all French parties representation in the government during this crisis, but it is also evident that there were other reasons for the change. ------------------------o------------------------- It seems that Governor Blease's "enemies" cold and did help themselves. His general mistake was in regarding and treating as "enemies" those who disapprove of some features of his administration. ------------------------o------------------------- Suppose, when the European actions are exhausted by The War Japan should start an Oriental Monroe Doctrine with Asia for the Asiatics as its rallying cry. Sooner or later that will be Japan's policy. ------------------------o------------------------- The second primary will soon be over. Then lets all settle down to the business of making South Carolina the most prosperous, progressive and law-abiding state in the nation. ------------------------o------------------------- If Blease is going to locate in Anderson to practice law, he will have no use for the curry-combs that are being sent to him from various parts of the state. ------------------------o------------------------- An Anglophobic insists that the reason the sun never sets on the British Empire is that the Lord wouldn't trusst those people in the dark. ------------------------o------------------------- They will soon be able to organize a Society of ex-presidents of Mexico over in Europe. Huerta reached Spain and Colonial England yesterday. ------------------------o------------------------- Are the Austrians imitating the Germans, and the Russians the Franch in their war reports? They are just as contradictory. ------------------------o------------------------- If you wait long enough in politics, youcan see the other fellow spoil his digestion with crow, jsut as you have. ------------------------o------------------------- If the English cable were cut, the stooppage of war poems would help reconcile us to the lack of news. ------------------------o------------------------- The peace temple at The Hague was dedicated about one year ago.

The political howling will soon be over in South Carolina for another two years. Let the calamity howling be eliminted along with it. Get down to Business,—Rock Hill Herald. ----------o---------- Better Teach It Now.

We do not like the Japs mixing up in the row between Germans and the English, French and Russians. It is a white man's fight with which the little yellow man should have had nothing to do. Sooner or later the Japs will have to be taught a lesson. —Orangeburg Times and Democrat. ----------o---------- All Together.

South Carolina wants just now union and fellowship. The victory has been over a bad political system, rather than over fellow South Carolinians. Let there be no gloating in personal triumph as over some foreign foe. Because 'they have rubbed it into us for two years ago,' is no reason for us to rub it into them now. It was not a good thing for them to do; and less would it be a good thing now. —Newberry Observer. ----------o---------- Fighting Odds.

We are not taking sides in the great European conflict, but recent developments force us to the conclusion that the Kaiser's men are some strategists and some fighters. The odds are heavily against Germany, but she will only be licked at an immense toll. Many a ship and many a soldier will go down before, if ever, she is conquered or beaten, either on land or sea, is our belief.—Hartsville Messenger. ----------o---------- An Easy Life?

There is a prevalent belief that a preacher takes life easy, and reaps where he does not sow.

The other day I talked with a preacher who mentioned being tired. He had preached 29 sermons and made 51 calls in two weeks.

Think of 29 sermons in a room filled with sweating people, breathing close air. Think of talking and gesturing for an hour, twice a day with a heavy coat and high collar on, and the thermometer above ninety.

Then consider that two weeks may have been absolutely wasted— may have accomplished nothing!

The preacher is welcome to his job, so far as I am concerned.—Fountain Inn Tribune. ------------------------o------------------------- What Others Say.

Amen! Amen!!

We should recall all missionaries from China and other heathen lands and send them to Europe.—[blotted] Herald. ----------o---------- Woful Waste.

If the immense sums that are now being expended in the destructive work of war could be diverted into constructive channels what wonderful things could be accomplished! Economically and otherwise, war is terrible calamity. It is certainly to be hoped the present conflict will be of brief duration—Winston Sentinel. ----------o---------- Has Nine Lives.

The Crown Prince of Germany has been killed on the field of battle twice, wounded thrice and banished to the Russian frontier to take charge of the German army all in the short space of thirty-six hours, if one would believe the reports coming in regarding this young man. Must have the nine lives of the proverbial black cat.—Raleigh News and Observer. ----------o---------- Thanks to Napoleon.

The beet sugar industry owes its origin to the genius of Napoleon Bonniparte. During his reign sugar had become more than a luxury and was much sought. As England controlled both the [seas?] and the sugar industry of the West Indies, he conceived the idea of developing the beet sugar industry so that the French might be made independent of the rest of the world so far as its sugar supply was concerned. Our sugar [bucks? beets?] are full of the history of the gradual development of the industry, the extreme [?inn] of the beet juice by the old roller mills and later by hydraulic presses, and we might say only recently by diffusion, and this great industry, producing now nearly half the sugar of the world, is the child of his brain. —Houston Post.

VEST POCKET ESSAY Volcanoes By GEORGE PITCH Author of "At Good Old Copywrited by George Mathew

A VOLCANO is a mountain which is insurging against the universe.

Most mountains are quiet and wellbehaved, remaining in the same spot year after year and allowing tourists and other insects to swarm over them and among them without protest. But the volcano has a system of manners that is all its own. It is connected directly with the furnace room in the earth's interior and whenever it gets peevish or dissatisfied with the government it erupts.

When a volcano erupts it does things on a grand and awful scale. It blows its top off, throws ten-ton boulders through the nearest postoffice puffs smoke three miles into the zenith, spits fire at the dog star, spills melted rock over half a dozen townships, emits roars which can be heard a hundred miles, rocks the surrounding country until the buildings get [seasick?] of brimstone that it smells like a theatre during a Paris Revue. Nothing is more terrifying than a volcano when it is in full cry except perhaps an I. W. W. orator who is explaining on a soap box why he is entitled to eternal rest.

Volcanoes are very fatal, not because they are so violent, but because they are so placid between outbreaks. After a volcano has blown itself limp and empty it sometimes sleeps for a hundred years, while fields grow over its site and people build towns with joyful abandon just in the wrong

HEALTH TALKS By WILLIAM BRADY Acetanilide the "Harmless"

BEFORE you take your next dose of headache powder, "cold" or "grip" cure, neuralgia, pill or readyreliefforthattiredfeeling, hold the label up to the light and read thereon this legend:

Each ounce contains 56 grains Acetanilide. Guaranteed under the Pure Food and Drugs Act, June 30, 1986.

But don't let that stop you. The poison is none the less "harmless" for being mentioned on the label. The law merely requires mention of the dangerous ingredient in case you should die suddenly, you understand. Acetanilide, sometimes called phenylacetamide, and Phenacetin, sometimes called [Acethphocoetidin?], are two drugs with practically identical action. Antifebrin is another [blurry] for poison derived from coal tar.

The Danger.

Now acetanilide is a good pain reliever when rightly used. It is included in the United States Pharmacopoeia, the standard list of drugs for physicians. But, like man y other good medicines, acetanilide is poisonous, expending its power mostly on the heart and the blood. The very persons who are most subject to "colds," "grip," headache, neuralgia and that-tired-feeling, can least afford to imperil the strength of their hearts and blood.

Two grains of acetanilide is the average quantity contained in pills, tablets or capsules sold under the fake "guarantee" of the benevolent government. Such a dose, repeated hourly for two or three times, fills the blood with an amount of heart-depressing poison equal to or greater than the maximum safe dose for a normal individual, to say nothing of an invalid.

The Result.

Then comes a strange, numb, fluttery sensation, perhaps a faintness or a sense of want of air. This is the first effect. Next the lips an fingernails assume a dark, bluish tint—the blood is being changed by the poison, oxygen crowded out of the red blood corpuscles. If a larger does or many doses have been taken, nausea and heaart failure soon appear. And much more often the public is aware

[column 1]

[headline and article span cols. 1-3] THE OPINION OF OTHERS "COATTAIL SWINGERS" Editor The Piedmont:

At the stage of the game, when the political pot is beginning to reach the boiling point, many [tin-horn?] politicians of very small calibre, who are exceedingly anxious to represent the "[poor?] people" in county also state affairs, are seeking votes by identifying themselves with the party which they believe to be the strongest, regardless of their own convictions. [This] detestable practice is not of recent birth, but was conceived, I think, about the time that Capt. Benjamin B. Tillman sallied forth as the [standard?] bearer of the common people [blotted] politican, who like an infant, has not the backbone to try and walk alone, deserves no more consideration than a one-legged man in a Marathon race.

Listen, Brother. This abominable system occassionaly will work out your [salvation?]; but it is a very [dauntin?] proposition at this dating. Now, on the coat tail upon which you are dangling is of fine material, and [now?] itself beginning to frazzle and otherwise show signs of weakness, you might be dragged through the goal but you'll get there on "Flower Beds of Ease"—I don't think.

In most cases, your old political [blurry] will be hit so hard by defeat that the echo can be heard from mountain to seaboard.

The world loves a fighter, but a true man detests a "boot-lick."

"Every tub should sit upon its own bottom" or be consigned to the junk pile. Likewise, no man should be permitted to further [faded] his own purposes, by harping upon the merits or [blurry] of others.

Any honest aspirtant for political honors, would prefer going down in defeat, expressing his own convictions, to being used as a megaphone for his superior to holler through. At Monaghan mill, on the night of May 7th, Sam Nichols desired in his speech that if elected to congress, he would support President Wilson if he considered the president right, and that he, Sam, would oppose Wilson if he believed him wrong.

I shall not attempt to criticize this "First Meeting of Samuel. "However, if the declaration meets with the hearty approval of the Blease forces, then let it apply to all candidates for county and state offices. The people are being educated to doing a little thinking for themselves, and are not going to consign a candidate to political oblivion, simply because the candidate fails to approve every act of "The Big Chief." Neither will they elevate an aspirint for political honors, who has swallowed pride and everything else, and has adopted the "Boot-Lick" Route as the safest way.

No objection to a man changing his views, regarding politics or anything else, for "a wise man changes his mind, but a fool never does."

However, don't be a political cameleon, as in such case, your very best of friends will never know what you are. There has been pulled off, quite recently, a very marvelous acrobatic stand, politically speaking; and both Bleaselites as well as anti-Bleaselites, are asking, "What will the harvest be?" I refer to the recent reconciliation between our governor and Mayor Jno. P. Grace of Charleston, S. C. If Mayor Grace were wrong in hurling such bitter invectives at our governor las summer, then he should apologize. And thinking people are going to ask for an explanation along this line. Also they will want to know, what it means having a Bull Mooser in the Democratic ranks. Politics has become one of the most scientific studies of the present cenury, and no man will be capable of understanding same, who has not applied himself very assiduously.

It is pretty generally understood that of the approaching state campaigns, every gubornatorial candidate has to be required to state whether he is for or against Blease.

This is a very unfair propossition and should be resented or ignored by all of the gentlemen in the race for governor. These gentlemen are making the race for governor of South Carolina, and should not be elevated to that high and important office on account of merits or demerits [as to] Mr. Blease or anybody else.

It is presumed by a11 fair-minded [blotted], that each candidate has an [unasailable?] right to so conduct his own affairs as to perpetuate his name the same as did Hampton, Tillman, Blease, or any other leader and so not acknowledge his own inferior way, by carrying a Blease or antiBlease banner. Any man who indorses every act of any governor, or who condemns every act of that chief executive, is totally unfit to represent a yellow cat at a dog convention. I say this because I am quite sure that many things are done by those high in authority, simply for political advertisement, and not with the expectation of pleasing their constituants. Did you gather? In conclusion, a desire also to state that sensible men are going to resent being dictated to by "The Big Guns" as to how they should cast their ballot. This was forcibly demonstrated during the last election, when the Senate, [blotted] "butted in."

There are so many gubernatorial candidates in the race that it will be a difficult matter to decide the winner, unless an elimination process be employed, or every man vote for his opponent, which of course he'll never do. Unless something unforeseen occur to upset the dope, of the ten candidates thus far announced and surely no more will enter, it truly appears that when they go to the polls next August, the following gentlemen will be the favorites. Hon. [blotted] Smith, Rev. Jno. G. Clinkscales and Hon. Richard I. Manning, in the order in which they are mentioned.

[article continues on column 2]

Mr. Smith has been Speaker of the House of Representatives for many years, Mr. Manning was candidate for governor several years ago, upon the prohibition ticket; but was defeated. Mr. Clinkscales is at present a member of the faculty of Wofford College.

The greatest aim of all candidates at present should be to unite the two warring factions in our state, and not continue to stir up strife; taking as in warning, the present condition in Mexico.

Looking to the accomplishment of this purpose, voters should decide to select its governor who will be acceptable to both Bleasite and antiBleasite always remembering that "a house divided against itself must fall."

Don't be deceived into believing that a governor makes the Laws. He is only put there to see that your laws are enforced just as your mayor is selected to enforce your municipal laws.

He simply recommends the legislative department that they pass certain laws, and if they do not choose to comply, he can't help himself.

Above all things, beware of the "coat tail swinger" or "boot-licker" and don't spoil a good farmer, a good mechanic, a good cotton mill operative, or a good lawyer, by electing him to represent you, when as a matter of fact he might prove to be only a Poll Parrot.

The Fortner Bill, and compulsory education are two issues that should receive very little consideration in the coming campaign, as they are matters to be acted upon by the legislative and not the executive department of our government. If a white man or a white woman desire to act in the capacity of teacher to the nigger, sit up and look upon his kinky dome, and inhale the delightful jungle odor that emenates from his or her ebony hued anatomy, why that's his or her business, and the best remedy for this obnoxious practice would be for every self respecting white person to declare social war against such, and to ostracize every guilty party. It will require national and not state legislation to regulate the present conditions between the

[article continues on column 3]

white race and black race; and surely it will come some day; as no where does history record where two separate and distinct races dwell together in peace and harmoney as they do in this land of ours. I am very much of the opinion that if our white men would all remain in their proper sphere, the "silly brudder" would stay in "his'n."

And now just a word about the race for the U. S. senate. I have been over the entire state within the past few weeks, and am conceited enough to believe that I can forecast the result pretty nearly correct. Any one who says that either candidate will have a walkover, surely has another guess coming; Gov. Blease received a substantial vote from the farmers in his last campaign, which he cannot reasonably expect this time, as cotton has been bringing a good price every since Smith has been in the senate, and they are going to remember him for his goodness to them.

Some readers of this article will pronounce it false; and to them I will state that the Bible says, "all men are liars." So howdy, brethren. I was the cause of several of my friends winning some good money on this last state election, and I am giving this as a warning to them, in case their sporting proclivities are working overtime. I had not intended to cover so much territoery when I began; but this is a subject upon which a great deal can be written.

Just one more remark and I am done:

If all county and state candidates must declare themselves as for or against Blease and his policies, then candidates for the U. S. senate also congressional candidates whould be compelled to state whether they indorse President Woodrow Wilson, his cabinet, and their policy.

"What's fair for the goose should be fair for the gander."

Here's hoping that the dove of peace will hover over the coming campaign and election and that the primary next August will destroy all factionism, and restore the commonwealth to that state of peace and prosperity in which it once abided.

There are some who will not like this, I am sure. To such I will say: Take your medicine, in broken doses, for next August you may have to be drenched in order to alleviate your pain.

Atlanta, May 20.—Believing that Cupid has been crippled by the high cost of living and the extravagant [torn] of the young people of the pres[torn] the Salvation Army has issued a declaration that the average young man of today can get married and have a honeymoon on $100 provided he go about it right.

The $100 honeymoon idea has aroused a great amount of interest and discussion, some people believing that it is good advice, and others questioning whether it is or not.

Here is the way the Salvation Army dopes out the program of the youth who has saved up $100 and wants to get married on it:

Marriage license ............. $1 Fee to the minister ........... 5 Furnishing a flat ............. 55 Rent for month ............... 28 Honeymoon trip ............. 10 Incidentals ....................... 6

"Don't let your whole $100 go for the honeymoon trip alone," warns the Salvation army. Don't forget to get that first month's rent off your mind. Don't come back and be nagged for bills in the presence of your bride.

"Young people spend entirely too much money on the frills of this honeymoon business. We are always advising young people who come to us to be married to be careful and get the saving habit." --------------------o-------------------- LEARNS FATE TODAY; MAY BE DEPORTED ----------o---------- Special to The Daily Piedmont.

"The Bathing Beauty Girls" was presented at the Majestic again last night and was well received by two large audiences. The applause was generous, the effort of the performers was evidently appreciated. The Driscall sisters were liberally applauded after their rendition of several songs. Messrs. Aills and Myers came in for a share of the "shouting."

There will be an entire change of program tonight which is said to be one of the strongest plays of their repertoire and will not doubt be greeted by a large crowd.

The Aills and Myers company is composed of all specialty characters offering high-class refined novelty specialties and ensemble work. Spectacular dancing numbers. All new songs, done in harmony by the Driscall sisters and chorus. A hilarious riot of mirth, music and comedy.

MINE LAW EFFECTIVE THROUGH OHIO TODAY ----------o---------- Special to The Daily Piedmont.

Cleveland, Ohio, May 20.—The new "screen" law which caused the recent shut-down of mines throughout Ohio becomes effective today. This law provides that Ohio operatives shall pay their miners for oil coal they mine, while competitive operators in Pennsylvania and Indiana, through the recent renewal of contracts at Chicago, will continue to pay their men only for coal that passed over a screen. The Ohio Legislature at its last session passed this law providing for the payment of miners on a run-of-the-mine tasis, and the operators, contending they coulld not meet the demands of, the United Mine Workers on this basis, suspended business, hoping the law will be held unconstitutional or thaat it will be repealed. --------------------o-------------------- [advetisement for Rush Bros.]

[column 1]

NEW LICENSE LAW IN ANDERSON IS CAUSE CHANGES ----------o---------- CERTAIN LINES BUSINESS DICONTINUED FIRST OF NEW YEAR ----------o---------- MANY LUNCH STANDS OF CITY OUT OF BUSINESS ----------o---------- Licenses For Lunch Stands, Carnivals, Peddlers, Medicine Dealers, Etc., is Prohibitive—Every Carnival That Comes to the City in the Future Will Have to Pay a License of $500—Country People are Allowed to Sell Farm Produce in City. ----------o---------- Special to The Daily Piedmont

Anderson, Jan. 2—Many lunch stands in the city are not doing business today. The cause is the new license bill which prohibits them doing business, except under a very high license. A license of [$500?] a year has been imposed on lunch stands, and there are very few willing to pay this license and continue his business. Two or three, however, are paying the license by the day and are going to continue to do so until the council meets.

Not only lunch stands, but many other forms of business died with the old year. Among these were the peddlers of medicine and and all sorts of merchandise except country produce. The country people are allowed to sell farm produce in the city, but peddlers and [??] of all kinds are not allowed to impose their stock upon the people. If the housewife will notify the city authorities when interrupted by a peddler, it will be appreciated, and cases will be brought.

Carnivals are not excluded from the city, but will come here under a license of $500. Carnivals do not encourage the business that are unprofitable to the community, as viewed by the council, and because of this position the license fee to be increased; in fact, made prohibitory.

Ridding the city of those businesses which have been regarded as undesirable has been brought about by means of increase in the amounts of license fees formerly charged that make them prohibitory, but, of course, if there came along the representative of one of these who believes he can make good, even in spite of the increase, he can pay over the amount as provided and take a shot at it.

Council's action in making the changes as referred to has met with general approval on the part of the people of the city. The business affected had come to be nuisances in a manner, at least, and the change now made, calling a halt, is generally appreciated. --------------------o-------------------- WIFE GOES IN HAT BOX AND GET SUM OF $75 ----------o---------- New York, Jan. 2—A hat box is not a safe place to put money, in the opinion of Ralph Thompson, former coxswain of the Yale cew. He put $75 in his silk hat box to keep it away from his wife, Maud E. Thompson, former wife of "Kid" McCoy, he alleges, but the next morning the money was gone.

Mrs. Thompson is suing for separation. Thompson, said she probably took the $75, as no other person had access to the box. Justice Cavegan awarded Mrs. Thompson $25 a week. She asked for $100. --------------------o-------------------- AUTO SALON OPENS. Special to the Daily Piedmont.

New York, Jan. 2—The 1914 automobile salon as the annual exhibition of foreign-built cars in New York is called, was opened here today in the ball room of the Hotel Astor.

For years this exhibition has opened immediately after the new year and never fails to attract a distinguished audience. A number of famous racing cars are featured at this year's show. The decorations have been arranged on the most [? blurry] in the history of these exhibitions. --------------------o-------------------- 10 CEN[T] "CASCARETS" STRAIGTEN YOU UP ----------o---------- No Sick Headache, Billious Stomach, Coated Tongue or Constipated Bowels by Morning. ----------o---------- Get a 10-cent box now.

Turn the rascals out—the headache, billiousness, indigestion, the sick, sour stomach and foul gases— turn them out to-night and keep them out with Cascarets.

Millions of men and women take a Cascaret now and then and never know the misery caused by a lazy liver, clogged bowels or an upset stomach.

Don't put in another day of distress. Let Cascarets cleanse your stomach; remove the sour, fermenting food; take the excess bile from your liver; and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poison in the bowels. Then you will feel great.

A Cascaret to-night straightens you out by morning. They work while you sleep. a 10-cent box from any drug store means a clear head, sweet stomach and clean, healthy liver and bowel action for months. Children love Cascarets because they

He shipped it over the Galloway system and I had to pay 10 cents freight, which is the cost of a rabbit, beside this rabbit had [one?] leg broke in transit, Junius says if I sue the road they'll git a writ of mandamus and I told Junius that ther wasn't but one man on that road big enough ter try that
