Britannia in certain winds?" was asked.

Gould answered. "she would beat Bri-

cannot do better, Mr.. Gould said:
II will not say that Vigilant can really

Britannia had a short hitch about two
hundred yards out and had to stand up
on the weather of the Vigilant as she
drew on and still had the weather gauge,

Coupon Advertising.

The payment of q small sum OF money "and

Back of all this coupon business Is nothing
more nor less than contract by the news
paper to advertise the particular thing named
with the understanding that the editor will
get stipulated per cent. for each coupon thus
sent In. This per cent. to be In lieu OF other

"this coupon" Is nothing more nor less than
evidence of the editor being entitled to two

The "Leading Paper"

Something has lately been said about the
"leading" paper In South Carolina.
According to our way OF thinking South
Carolina has DO "leading" paper-or, possibly
all of them are ''leading" papers of n faction
If, by "leading" paper, is meant to convey
the larger and truer meaning OF the term
then the "leadins" paper in South Carolina is
the Atlanta Constitution.
That paper has, perhaps, in this State o
weekly circulation far in excess Of the com.
bined circulation of all the weeklies from all
the daily offices in this State, and its utter
ances are more in touch with the people than
of any paper published in this State.
Naturally the people of the State would
look to the city Of Charleston for Its leading
paper, but the News and Courier having de-
voted Its energies TO the ridiculing of the
great mass OF the people, has lost much of the
influence which 1t would otherwise exert. 1t
has practically abandoned its own Legitimate
field, and allowed an alien and a foreigner to
occupy the territory to which 1t Is by reason
and Justice entitled. 1t is indeed lamentable
TO note that such newspaper as the Atlanta
Constitution is the leading weekly newspaper
In South Carolina.
