The Road to independence.

From our personal knowledge and
observation there has been hundreds
of tons Of hay and thousands of bush
els Of corn shipped TO st. George
during the past few months. Instead
of our people going to the Western
markets for these supplies, they
should be selling the same stuff. Car
load after car load Of hay and grain
are being shipped here for the pur-
pose of feeding stock that are now
busily engaged in making cotton. This
is not sound business method. AS sure
as the sun rises such practice will
bring US back to six cents cotton; 1t
matters not how high the price Of cot
ton might go, the farm is the place to
get your home supplies. Do this and

Millions in DEVELOPMENT

The Pitssburg capitalists who
bought the three water powers from
the local company at Spartanburg,
will place one million dollars in the
development Of the powers as an in
itial investment, the amount to be in
creased as the plants are extended.
The Catawba Power Company, on its
two plants, has expended two million
five hundred thousand dollars. The
Whitney Company will expend five
million dollars on its Yadkin river
development works. This makes an
investment by three electrical devel-
opment companies in this immediate
section of the South of $S,500,000.
This does not include the 4C's invest
ment, nor the Fries Power Company.
These properties would bring the TO-
tai close to s1o.o00,O0o. ALI Of this
development work is Of recent ac-
complisllment. It is the initial work
of the kind in the South and gives ev-
idence Of what is to be expected in
that line in the future.-Charlotte

How About This?

It is said that spelling is getting to
be a, lost art. It is not strange per-
haps, that persons whose voca.tions do
mot require much writing should be
fioored occasionally by words of COM
mon use, but what shall be said Of
school teachers who manifest this
weakness? A few days ago the 800
school teachers Of a county in Penn
sylvania were subjected to test in
spelling. Only thirteen words were
given them, all common words in gen.
eral use. Only one teacher passed the
test successfully The words were
auxiliary, beef steak, Tennessee, pro-
coed, supersede, precede, picnicking,
sieve, siege, cylinder, succotash and
'dessiccated.

The Jews.

The Jews are none the less pecu-
liar people today than they were
thousands of years ago. Wherever
you find them they are peculialy quiet,
unassuming, unobstrusive, law-abid-
ing, sympathetic, generous and kind,
alike to the Gentiles as we'll as their
own people. How few Of them are in
ebriates-how few are libertines-how
few are outlaws-how few of them
are embezzlers or fugitives from JUS
tice. The Jews have the happy facul-
ty of pursuing the even tenor of their
way, attending strictly to their own af-
fairs and not meddling with other peo-
-ple's.-Edgefeld Advertiser.

Firemen to Go to Star Barn Annex

The fire department will probably
move to it's new quarters just west
of the Keylor Grand theater tomorrow.
The moving will have to be started
early in the day so that it can all be
completed before dark and everything
be in perfect working order by that
time.
The stalls for the horses cannot be
removed from the old building as they
are a part of it, This will necessitate
the fitting up of new ones in the tenn

The police department has as yet
made no active preparations for NOV

near the court house and use the old

INSURANCE INSPECTION IS TIPPED

From information that has come in

new rates for Walla Walla will be
about in the same class as Seattle -
said H. S. Jackson, member of the

cial club today
can agent in Walla Walla a few
days ago quoted Mr.. McCune, VINO re-
surveyed the city some weeks ago, as
saying that the people down there
won't have any growl coming for sew
eral years when the new rates go into
effect
From this and other information ]
should judge that Walla Walla is to be
accorded an extremely low rate, prob
ably so cents for the residence district,
as compared to 60 cents, the present
rate. Of course this is conjecture, but
we hope the new rates will be as low
as estimated"
