a suleide Town,

some months ago Huntington hap
pened to have a number Of suicides.
The same suicide wave has often
come to other cities. Yet the Char
lesion newspapers particularly took
every day almost, to call at
tention to Huntington as suicide
town.
That chickens will come home to
roost is shown by the fact that there
have been half a dozen suicides in
Charleston within the past two months
and they still come with appalling reg.
uIarity. The record is worse than was
that of Huntington at its worst. In
the same period there has not been
"a single suicide in Huntington.
And the Charleston newspapers have
been noticeably silent in their dis.

Charley swisher, who may be class
ed as the leading candidate for the
Republican gubernatorial nomination,
at least until some one else forges
ahead Of him IN the race, was in the
city last night. shaking hands with
his many friends and interviewing a
few of his supporters. Mr., swisher
appears very sanguine Of success in
his candidacy, and, as is usual, his
ardor and enthusiasm is proving a
source of encouragement to his friends
also. Mr.. swisher's formal anonunce-
ment. setting forth the platform upon
which he will make his campaign, will,
we understand, be issued at an carry

The Cotton Crop.

Wish some one would come along
with some definite information about
the cotton crop. Here's a fellow who
croaks about the shortness of the
crop and the longness of the price, and
here IS William 8. Whitam, head of one
and four banking institutions
In the south who proudly halls cotton
as king and denies the possibility OF
panic in view of the wonderful crop
for this year. 1t isn't a sin to hope
the crop IS good, but it doesn't seem
TO make any difference n the increase
Of the price Of thread and calico. -

Not everyone can be rich, or wants
to be, But everyone can, If he will,
bet hrifty, which is better.
The first lesson one is given to
learn when he enrolls in the school
that qualities for success is to put by
a part OF his earnings each week. The
surest foundation upon which to build
a fortune. is the accumulated savings
Of months and years.
The habit of putting money away is
reflex in its action. The money itself
is a valuable accessory, and the quail
ity Of minda nd character developed
through this habit makes for intimate
success.
"A skilled and high salaried maehin-
ist who, at Gfty, has been forced to
sell valuable invention for a small
amount, because he had no capital Of
his own to float it, remarked: If I
had only had a. little money | could
have made a fortune out OF that de-
vice."
He is badly mistaken. The fact that
he has reached the age of fifty in
high paid position, without having
saved any money, is proof positive
that he has not the temperament and
habits that insure success in business
enterprises.
However much money he might
make, sharper and shrewder people
would get it away from him, just as
they have been getting it away from
qAim for thirty years.
A man who cannot withstand trivial
temptations to spend money has not
in him stiff enough financial back.
bone to make a success of any big
business venture.
The stores, the Streets the places Of
amusement, all furnish temptation to
a young man to part with his money.
II the purpose within him is not
stronger than these outside induce
r,ents, his salary, be 1t large or small,
will be FILTERED away on unnecessary
expenditures, and opportunity will al
ways find him empty handed.
1t Is the order of mind such course
indicates which spells failure, not the
mere fact of being without ready
means, though the possession Of small
savings has often been the stepping
stone to great success
