TIE WAR!


We are willing to leave the
management of the war now GO
ing on, IN the hands of the adj
ministration, and are satisfied all
will be well in the end. We are
too busy to assist in formuIat-
ing the policy of the next cam
Paign; we are willing to let our
friends attend to their own bust
ness. But we are not going to
be too busy to treat one and all
with attention and courtesy
when any of our friends or
strangers appear at our store
and inquire about prices of pro-
duce they may have for sale or
groceries they may wish to buy.
We are in the business to stay
and we have therefore met with
good success, and thank the
people for past patronage, and
will endeavor in the future TO
merit your favor and patronage.
Yours truly,

Amid the Excitement of domes

Amid the excitement of domes-
tic and foreign complications the
country is not permitted to forget
the Encouragement and abuses
which characterized the conduct
of our war with Spain. The events
of the past week throw a flood of
light upon that subject, and indi-
cate that the real culprits are to be
identified and compelled to bear
the burden of their guilt and shame.

Correspondence, 81.
We heard Poffenbarger's speech
at the Woods School House just
before the election. Were it not
for the ludicrons statements he
made we would not mention his
speech at this late hour. He said
that strikes were sign of prosper
ity. that strikes did not occur only
when prosperity abounds. This is
in keeping with the statements
that the reason people are poor
they have SO much money it makes
them poor to carry it. Poffenbar-
ger did more to reduce the Repub-
lican majority than did any one
else.

water-works Franchise.

In our article of last Saturday
on this subject we said the pro-
posed franchise would run. for
thirty years. That is correct il
part. But that is not the worst of
it. The franchise contains pro-
vision by which it. could be con-
tinued thirty years longer sat the
option" of the company putting in
the plant. We desire right here
and now to call a halt on this
scheme to fasten $4,000 addi-
tional taxation on an already bur
deped people. This is the senti-
ment of the people of this town,
and if our warning is not needed
steps will be taken to check this
threatened squandering of the
public's funds.

Committee
lThe Smallest RepubIic.

Goust is the smallest republic as
to area, but Tavolara is the small
est republic as to population.
Goust is only one mile in area.
It is located on a fiat top of a
mountain in the Pyrenees, be-
tween France and Spain, and is
recognized by both of these coun-
tries. 1t is governed by Presi-
dent and Council of twelve. 1t
was established in 1913 and has 100
inhabitants. The President is tax
collector, assessor and judge. Goust
has no church, clergyman or ceme-
terry. The people worship in a
church outside of their own terri
tory and the dead bodies are slid
down to cemetery in the valley
below. In that valley all the
baptisms and marriages are per-
formed. Tavolara is twelve miles
northeast of Sardinia 1t is
an island five miles long by
half mile wide. Its total
population consists of ffty-fve
men, women and children. The
women go to the polls with the
men, and elect every year Presi-
dent and Council of six, all serving
without pay. The inhabitants sup
port themselves by fishing and
raising fruit and vegetables. The
republic has no army and no navy.

no Whom Credit is DUO.

To Hon. Vim. A Ohley, chair
man of the Democratic State or
ganization committee, is due a
very large share of the credit for
the work of cutting down the Re
publican majority in this State of
1900 to 1000, eIecting majority
of the State Senators and Demo
cratic House of Delegates. The
victories achieved by the Demo
Gratis under the leader%hi', nf Mr..
Ohley was all the NOR >fediteble
to him when the fact that he had
scarcely any money with which to
carry on the work is taken into
consideration. Mr.. Ohley drew
largely on his own private funds
to pay printing bills and the cost of
correspondence.
Very little money could be rails
ed, because the men of money. who
formerly contributed literally to
the Democratic campaign fund in
the fight for tariff reform, this
year as in 1896, refused to contrib
ute, because tariff reform was not
an issue. Nevertheless, the work
of organizing the Democratic par
ty was quickly and wisely done.
Mr.. Ohley had an intelligent grasp
of the situation from the begin
ming of the contest and kept it. He
was sagacious, tactful, resourceful,
and fertile in expedients, and these
qualities, coupled with his persist
ent energy and industry, won us
the Charleston Gazette.

about $50 o'clock, they marched
down Washington Street and Out
Main to their camp, which is sit
uated to the right of Main street
along the new Spartanburg road,
The band, heading the procession,
struck up Dixie just as Main street
was reached, and the rebel yell
from hundreds of true blue south
e.ners who had lined across Main
street to see the regiment come in.
1t was a patriotic scene, typical of
the times. This regiment recruited

The West Virginia boys stepped
sprightly to the music, less familiar
perhaps, to them than to the peo-

other southerners, are accustomed
to yell whenever it is played. The
incident was pretty one, and the
West Virginia boys will be favor

that the men who are in charge do

"Fifty-fve warships under con-
struction for Uncle Sam" sounds
big, but when we remember that
only eight are battleships, for
three of which the keels have not
been laid, that four are monitors
authorized but not commenced,
and that only one cruiser is includ-
ed and that the balance are merely
torpedo boats, the array is not SO
imposing.
