Treasurer Sheldon does not deny
that those who have swollen for
tunes" made out of the Steel Trust
are contributing literally to the Re-
publican campaign fund. Sheldon
practically says it's their money and
it is no ones business how they turn
it loose. They made their money by
governmental favoritism and it is no
more than right, as Republican man
ayers view it, that they should show
appreciation of their Indebtedness to
the parties that made the tariff to
suit them.

There was never any reason why
Mr.. Browns loyalty to the national
Democracy should have been brought
into question, and it is not probable
that anybody really doubted his
intention to support Bryan and Kern
not only with his own vote, but with
the influence of his position in the
state party organization. If any have
doubted, however, there is no longer
any excuse for it, and it is now time
that the nagging that has been kept
up ever since he was nominated for
governor should cease.

South Carolina cotton growers have
denounced might riders" and adopted
resolutions against selling any cotton
below 10 cents. The sales will go on
right along, though, but the might
riding business will hardly grow
into any movement of formidable pro-

big to be overridden in such way.

A HOUSE PARTY At MOUZ0N
Celebrating the Birth day Of Mrs S. R.
M0uzOn.

Mrs S r Mouzon celebrated
her sixtieth birthday last week
in a most interesting and unus-
ual manner. Instead OF celebra-
ting one day, as is usually done,
the whole week was made mer-
ry in the entertainment OF a
number of young friends and
relatives.
No more suitable place could
have been chosen for an call
week -party"than this ideal coun-
try home with its wide, shady
lawn stretching almost to the
banks of the Wee Nee, which
served the pleasure-seekers as
.surt, boating lake and fish pond.
Nor could a more thoughtful
and untiring hostess have been
found to plan in detail the
amusements for each day. If
there were no picnic, straw.ride
or fishing expedition on hand,
there would at least be a "bee
tree cutting" or something equal
ly interesting to make the time
pass pleasantly.
Those who composed the par
ty were: Mr. and Mrs S r Mou-
zon, Misses Loulie, Pattie, and
Addie Mouzon, Inez and Rosa
lie Montgomery and Mamie King
of Greelyville; 1nez and Annie
White of Manning; Nellie Mae,
Pearle and Clara Montgomery
of Kingstree; Carrie and Donnie
Flagler of Cades; .Messrs Ed
ward, John Henry, and Barron
Mouzon, w D Fulton, Sidney
King, Cleve Flagler of Cades;
Ben Hudnall, Anthony and Rob
White of Manning. Besides
these We're the young people of
the neighborhood, who called in
the afternoons and evenings
throughout the week.
Although the house party is
now a thing cf the past it will
always be fragrant memory to
those who participated in its
many pleasures.

Editor the Greenville News: |
want to call the attention OF
your readers to the candidacy
of Prof Stiles R Mellichamp. OF
Orangeburg, for the responsible
office of State Superintendent OF
Education. While l know moth
ing to the discredit of either OF
the other candidates for the office
and hence make no reflection on
them, | do know Prof Mellichamp
we'll, and it gives me great pleas.
ure to speak of his entire capa-
bility and general fitness for the
place. A gentleman Of culture
and high tone, having ripe
knowledge of educational affairs
and active experience in teach
ing during his entire life career
and a Christian of the purest
stamp, MIR Mellichamp is in
every way qualified for the office,
and | take it as a matter of good
Sortune to the people of South
Carolina that he is offering his
services. Prof Mellichamp is
already we'll known to many OF
our people in Greenville, he hav-
ing been a member of the facul-
ty of Furman University tor
some time. He has spent his
aife in educational work, being
at this time Superintendent of
Education of Orangeburg coun-
ty. repeat, it is fortunate for
the people of the State to have
the privilege of voting for such
a man for an office, whi-h | con-
slider one of the most important

APOPULAR CANDIDATE!

Prof Stiles R Mellicbamp, WHO
is making a popular run for the
office of State Superintendent of
Education, and who will receive
"a fattering vote in Greenville
county, his~former home, is Civ
,en a fine endorsement IN the fol-
lowing editorial, which appear
ed in a recent issue of the Or
.angeburg Times and Democrat.
"While on a recent trip to the
upper part of the State We met
and conversed with a number of
gentlemen from different coun-
ties, and we were delighted to
find that the Hon Stiles R Melli-
champ, candidate for State Su-
perintendent of Education,
would run we'll everywhere. We
believe that Prof Mellichamp
will be the next State Superin-
tendent of Education. He is the
oest man running for the posi-
tion and will possibly win in the
first primary. Orangeburg coun-
ty should do her full share to
make this possible by giving
lfm practically unanimous
vote. We appeal to the voters
Of Orangeburg county to stand
by him, not only because he is a
home man, but because he is the
BEST man for the position IN the
field. He has served Orange
burg county we'll and ably in
her educational affairs and he
Till do the same for the State.
See TO it that his name is on
your ballot when you vote in
the primary.

President Seymour said today that
he expects that the Public Service Cor

courts, as they did against the Newark
Block Light Company, and in Orange,
on the ground that the Jersey City
Board of Aldermen exceeded it's pow
ers In giving a franchise to the new
company. He also said that as soon
as the Mutual Benefit Electric Light
and Power Company gets out of court
and a do business it will begin to
construct pipes and conduits to paral-
lei all the Public Service overhead
wires and conduits in Jersey City, and
the work will be prosecuted vigor-
ously.
I'VE are certain the Public Service
Corporation will take us into the
courts and try by every means to
knock out our franchise, for that
watered stock trust doesn't want any
competition IN the electric light and
power business. because a competitor
in the field will force it to reduce The
price to individual consumers and for
the city's public lighting. We will
cut rates lower than the Public
Service, for we can produce electricity
cheaper, and we will have a new plant,
the most modern machinery and APP
paratus, while the plant of the Public
Service in Jersey City is old and half
worn out.
IF Public Service had kept its Jersey
City plant in as good condition as the
great steam railways like the Erie and
