Letter TO !. E. irwin, MarshalI.own.

Dear Sir: Consider one point. If you
please in painting your work-a point
on which the practice of painters is
apt to be wrong-the printing.
The usual practice is to use cheap
achre for printing. Don't do it. Use
the same paint you are going to use
for the other two coats.
The reason for cheap ochre is: 1T Is
cheap-a poor reason. The saving is

AN APPEAL TO DEMOCRATS.
Chairman Willie Jones Urges Voters to
Turn Out at General Election.

State Chairman Willie Jones has
sent out the following letter to the
Democratic county chairmen:
Headquarters of tie Safe DEM
ocratic Executive Committee, Col
umbia, S. c., September "A, 1904
Dear Sir:-The Democrats of this
State have shown so much inditfer-
ence in the past few Years about reg
istering and voting in the legal cleo
ton, that | feel that it is very i'm
portant that every effort should be
made to get them to register on the
first Monday in October, and be pre-
pared to vote in the general election
on the Sth dav of November. |
therefore address this communica-
ton to YOU, and would ask that
you use every means in your power
to get the Democrats of your county
to register Oh the first Monday in
October, the last day for registering.
The indications now are that the
Republicans Of this State will put
out an electoral ticket and also can
didates against all of our Congress
s,onal nominees. Of course, We all
know that the general indifference
on he part of the voters is produced
by the prevailing feeling that the
primary elections settle the fate of
our candidates, and that our party
in this State is invincible. We are
invincible if our people will register
and vote, but not otherwise.
In The first primary election there
were over 100000 votes cast, and
10000 in the second primary. |
therefore trust that You will do all
IN your power to get the Democrats
of Your county to register and vote,
and also get your county papers to
urge it. Yours very truly,
VILE JONES,
State Chairman.

Kingstree, S. G..


Dear Sir: The cheapest thing in
the way of sending anything over
the world is "a postage stamp; and
the cheapest way to shed water is
paint.
Not whitewash; paint. DO you
happen to know-lt don't belong to
YOUR business to know about paint,
You w know-do you happen to know
that most of the makers of pant
stuff it out with lime and clay and
sand and water and air?
They do stuff ii out in the can;
but not on the house. They make
more gallons to sell or to buy; more
money to pay for paint; more money
to pay for putting it on; good deal
more money to pay for putting it on;
but no more beauty; more rust; decay;
disappointment; loss. -,
Devoe is your paint, because it's
all paint, no sham, and full-measure.
Yours truly,
TW DBvoE & 60.
