With Taft, the heavy weight, holding
the seat of government down, Roosevelt
may hunt in peace, and have no fear OF
not finding the treasury box safe on his
return.

The vanity so often impaired to crimi'
nals::is clearly illustrated by the request
of Marion Parr just before his execution.
While having his hair cut he asked the
barber to shape it 50 that it would remain
nnrumpled by the moose.

Evidently the reason for Japan's VIC
tories over the Russian Bear, is to be
found in: Japan expects every man to
do his duty" rather than the vain "forsy
centuries look down on you from the
heights of yonder pyramids"

It's been quite while ago now, but last
November just after the election, one fel.
low expressed the situation in this wise: {:
Roosevelt Rampant" another seeing
this, politely added: Democracy Damn
ed" From the various speeches made

The lid of the political box at Wash
ington, that source from which so many
iack-in.the-boxes spring, in the forms Of
booms, scandals, or gossips otherwise Ia
beled, few open only long enough last
week to give Nh. Taft a soft boom-of-a-
mention for the presidency. It might be

It was claimed by the advocates of two
new judicial circuits in this State that
they would result in doing away with
special terms of court. But we notice
special terms are still being held, and they
will continue to be. The taxpayers will
find that they are paying salaries for two
judges and solicitors and getting no bet
ter results. Court is not to be held in any
county oftener than before, and of course
the dockets will still be cougested.

Can't we get our business men interest

board Of trade, or some such thing. Call
it what you will-what We need is bust.
ness organization of business men to look
after various matters of importance to the
town. There are various lines Of work
which could be taken up. Foreign capi.
tai is being continuously invested in en-
terprises of various kinds in many South
Carolina towns, and we ought to try to
induce some of it to come here. Unfortu-
nately for Bamberg, we have depended on
our own resources. There is little out
side capital invested in any Of the enter
prises located here. and as consequence
our moneyed men have all the invest.
ments they care for. Won't some one 60

be made very Eroad, and the town and its
citizens would be benefited.
