Many simulated virtue has lived
to plague the simulator.
No secret has more cocksure solvers
than the mocking secret Of success.
If genius could be emulated, then,
indeed, 'twere folly to be merely wise.
Well-deserved praise always pleases
the receiver and never hurts the giver.
All great reforms are the culmina-
tions Of world-old longings and aspira-
tions.
Many a man who sings the praises
of another does so just to call atten-
ton to himself.
No man is fitted to command who
lacks the power to put himself in an
other mans place.
The most serviceable knowledge to
any man is that which makes him dis
satisfied with himself.
The nature evidenced by man s first
breath remains unchanged in bent and
kind till death.
'Tis their relation to the point Of
view that makes the minds impress
sions false or true.
That which dcgradcs the coward
and the slave degrades still more the
manly and the brave.
The fool sayeth in his heart, erich
cs have WINGS" but the wise man ad-
wiseth thus, "Clip the wings"
1t is the way of most philosophers
that they would rather speculate on
the unlnowable and immaterial than
set their faculties to work on some
things useful and within the limits of
the attainable.

The Money Received to Settle Cases

The Money Received to Settle Cases.
Mr.. A. w. Jones, comptroller gen.
eral, yesterday received from the
clerk of court of Colleton county a
check for $423.9S in settlement Of the
"pension frauds' in that county. Mr..
Jones was very much surprised to
learn that these cases had been set
tied outside Of the court. cit seems
that all man has to do these days
when he is caught in any rascality is
to pay up and get out of the trouble, /"
he said.
Last night when the news came to
the State Office in a dispatch from
Walterboro that the grand jury had
rebuked the solicitor for entering
"nolle prosequi" OH the indictments
against these parties, Mr.. Jones was
much gratified that there was a grand
jury which has the backbone to stand
up to it's convictions. The solicitor s
action was based on request from
the county board of pensions.
Colleton county gets about $1,000
annually out of the pension fund and
these frauds attempted there last year
amounted to nearly per cent Of the
total for that county. 1t is singular
that such bold attempt at fraudu-
lent practice should have been at
tempted.
The names Of persons who are dead,
and some persons who may never
have lived, were recorded on these
pension rolls. The fraud was discov-
cred during the year by the clerk of
court of Colleton county when he re-
ceived the pension warrants to be
paid to the benefciaries. The matter
was brought. to the attention of the
county pension board and by that
board reported to Mr.. Jones.
Not only is somebody guilty of
forgery in attempting to sign the
names of parties non existent, but
there is also the charge Of perjury to
be answered to, as the law requires
applications for pensions to be sub
mitted under oath. The act says
"Said commissioner shall be and is
hereby authorized and required to
administer oathsy'
In addition to the charges of forg-
cry and perjury there is the moro
shocking offense Of attempting to de-
fraud the helpless Confederate vet
Grams of this state. IF $3.50 should be
stolen from the veterans in each of
the 41 counties Of the state there
would be about $18,500{ lost Of the
fund Of $225,O00 or 100000 as it was
last year. '"n 8sS{f %4 @e'

Theodore Roosevelt is digging the ca
nal, too. The dirt is flying in Pana-
ma. More legislation will be needed
to help him. Can you trust that great
est work of the ages to Il democratic
house which would work for Roose-
velts failure? Remember that when
YOU vote for congressman you vote
for or against the proper work ON the
canal: for or against the efficient ex-
ecution OF the great laws we have
passed: for or against the administra-
ton of the president.
IF the opposition had been In power
would single one OF these great stat
utes have been enacted: Everybody
knows they would not. Everybody
knows that the opposition would have
been SO busy quarreling with them
selves that no practical legislation
would have passed. Everybody knows
that with Bryan or Hearst as presi-
dent aod an opposition house nothing
but theories would be discusser and
no practical laws enacted. But Theo-
dore Roosevelt's administration will
forever be known as the administra-
ton that gets things done"
From this standpoint alone every
republican in North Dakota-and, in
deed. every citizen who has the inter-
ests OF his country at heart-ought to
vote for Marshall and Gronna. In ad-
dition to that. our congressman are
entitled to endorsement on the

The country has witnessed in the
legislation on this subject and the
only law ever enacted by the demo-
cratic party the difference between
political sanity and political hysteria.

its qualifications. 1t took time and

Let the thinking man who is con-

GAVE THE NATION ROOSEVELT.

1t will be remembered that only
country were assailing President
Roosevelt as an impulsive and head
strong political leader, tempermental-
ly restless and dangerously radical.
He was pictured as disturber of old
ideas and leveler of old landmarks.
When he by simple act issued an
edict to the world that the man should
be recognized for his worth whether
he belonged to the one race or to the
other. the south. which is the home of
democracy, declared that the president
should be placed in the category OF
those who have brought ruin upon the
country. The president had crossed
the social Rubicon, and so far as the
south was concerned, he was an alien
and stranger.
But he was no more swerved from
his position on that than on all other
questions, and with the utter disre-
gard of the criticism hurled against
him in a matter in which he believed
he was right, he went about the work
which he had marked out for himself.
He has won the confidence of the
people by his Straightforward and
open methods of dealing with all pub
lie matters in which information could
in any manner be given to the public.
That which was necessary in carrying
out the policies that have made his
administration historical landmark.
has been zealously guarded. but in this
the public has been assured that the
work was being done.
He stands today without a peer and
his work as the nations chief execu-
tive will be among the brightest pages
of our history. But he has reached
the position he now holds and has ac-
complished the work which he has
because of the recognition of his worth
by the republican party and the deter
mtnation of that party to give the ma
ton the advantages of his service in
trusted position. The party which
did that is not very dangerous to the
public.

friendship by returning to take his
place upon the eXecutioner's block
Never for a moment does history re-
cord the fact that there was ever any
doubt in the mind OF either as to the
fidelity OF the other.
The display of that friendship not
only secured the release of Pythias
but the bloodthirsty tyrant who had
ordered his execution and who stood
ready to take the blood of the friend
who had become the surety of the con-
demned. was SO impressed with the
fidelity that he asked to be taken into
the order.
Not less nobly sublime is the under
lying principle of the Knights OF Pyth-
las today. 1t has been polished and
made to conform with the more than
two thousand years Of the worlds
progress which separates the laying of
the corner stone from the great gath
ering of its representatives at New
Orleans next week. But the generic
principle is found as pure and sacred
as when 1t was first demonstrated in
the palace of the tyrant of Syracuse.
And is the world not better-a hun
dredfold better-because of it? Is not
the hand of fellowship which has
reached out to every land and bound

erhood pledged to the fulfillment of
the Pythian principles the hand that
lifts humanity heavenward? The
thousands of members in this and
other states will receive a new inspir-
alton which will add to their zeal in
the cause and their fidelity to its
principles from the gathering which
will mark an epoch in the history of

TWO RECORDS.

Among the democratic candidates
for Office in this state from COVER
nor to constable, there is a persistent
attempt to make the public believe
that its great enemy is the railroads
and that the only people who are op-
posed to these roads are the candi-
datse who bear the earmarks of DEM
ocracy. 1t il merely one of the party's
attempts to secure votes by deception.
When analysed the claims of the dem
ocrats resolve themselves into poIiti-
cal Stiffness.
No sensible man will for moment
claim that the country can get along
without the railroads. The wheat
crops of this state, and of the entire
northwest for that matter, are yalu-
able merely because they can be trans
ported to market by the railroads.
Where these auxiliaries of modern
prosperity, are not developed the coun-
try remains valueless. The thing for
which the people most clamor in the
newer portions of the west is the
building of railroads.
The only thing the government can
do is regulate these roads. Now ex-
anime the record of the two political
parties and see which of these has
been the regulator In practical and
common sense manner. The demo-
cratic party was in power in both
branches of congress and had the exc.
cutlVe during the last term of Grover
Cleveland. and the statute books d.
not SHOW that a single law was passed
or even attempted to lie passed by
mat party at that time. The claim of
the democratic party is that the evils
chargeable to the railroads have exist
ed for years--in fact were fostered
and developed by the republican party,
II that democatic contention were
true, why did not the party remedy the
evil when it had the golden opportun-
ity?
Contrast this with the record of the
republican party on the same subject.
When the opportune time arrived for
the enactment of such legislation as
was needed for the regulation of the
common carriers engaged in inter-
state commerce, the party went about
the work calmly and deliberately. 1t
refused to be carried from its policv
by the frantic efforts of the democrats
who attempted to make political CAP
ital out of the fact that the republican
party could not pass railroad rate

TEMPORARY ENHANCEMENT.
Trouble Of Howard Goulds May Result
In Divorce Action.

New York. Oct. 9-Among those
who know Mr. and Mrs. Howard
Gould, and who have been aware of
their estrangement, 1t was the freely
expressed belief today that now that
their separation has become public
legal steps are not unlikely. 1t can
not be said that the story of the dis
agreement Of the couple came as
surprise to those with whom they had
social intercourse, for to them 1t has
been an open secret for some time.
Since the return of the Goulds from
Europe last June. after which they I'M
mediately sought seperate residences,
speculation has been rife among their
friends as to how long the agreement
to disagree" would continue without
either applying to the courts for relief
from condition that apparently HAD
become intolerable. since the utmost
efforts Of mutual friends to bring about
a reconciliation proved futile.
Ii either Mr. or Mrs. Gould intends
to begin divorce proceedings, the in
tention has been we'll concealed, for
their closest friends insist that for
the present at least such a plan will
not be pursued. This, while admit
ting that the breach is apparently un-
bridgable and without attempting to
advance reason for the unwillingness
to 30 to court save possibly dislike
for the attendant publicity.
Quarrels are said TO have been by no
means infreQuent between the husband
and wife. particularly in the later
years of their married life, and friends
of Mr.. Gould say that his wife's many
difficulties with trades-people which
resulted in suits were source of
much annoyance to him.
Even before their last European trim
the two were often seen apart, al
though their engagements at the opera,
the horse show and similar functions
were made in the names of both. AS
the estrangement grew they found
their friends in different groups, which
served to place them farther apart
rather than to bring them together.
That many of her husbands rela-
tives were by no means on intimate
terms with her is said to have been a
source of great dissatisfaction to Mrs.
Gould. She has enjoyed the courtes-
les of the Countess de Castellane,

Through the present gossip the re-

was Katherine Clemmons, an actress,
In 1893, brought out is recalled. The
members of the young mans family
were outspoken in their antagonism,
but when he persisted and the cere-
mony was performed at the Holland
House. they acquiesced without taking
advantage of Jay Gould's will, which
provided for the disinheritance of any
member of the family who married
without the consent of the others.
