EoIr:tfs Wealth.

Coming Wealth.
A London paper estimates that Amer
lea is growing richer at the rate of
o,oO0.O03 day That sounds nice
and comfortable but it doesn't buy the
individual any groceries or help stand
of the landlord when he comes around
looking like a man who would like to
get the rent right away quick.
Growing rich by statistics is one OF
the least satisfactory ways in which,
man can accumulate money. He
sees, for instance, that the average
amount OF money per capita in the saw
ings banks has increased wonderfully,
but all he gets for his part il a look
at the outside Of the bank, and that
will not buy even a fifteen cent meal
However. 1t is nice to know that
some one is growing richer, and. while
he may not look the part, who knows
but it is your favorite uncle who has
promised to make you his heir, provid-
ed he does not acquire another heir by
marriage.

candidates who wish to succeed Rev.
E. L. Semans, presiding elder of the
Wabash district. Rev. Semans, re-
fuses the Office any longer because OF

the eIdership and the friends of each,
are busy pulling every available string
in an effort to land the plum, for their
respective candidate
Anderson After Conference.
Next year the conference. will prob
ably be held in Anderson. Anderson

of entertaining the ministers in 1908

best show. A delegation of Anderson

little Maryland the third largest negro
voting State in the United States, and
who did woman work tor negro euff'
rage in 1905, now having all the offices,
are aching about their former highly
esteemed negro vote. and we must VOTE
with them because of the negro.
