TALKS HARD SENSE
SENATOR TuLAiAN SHOWS UP
TAFT's DESIGN on Cs.
Says he Is Trying to Debsuch tho
People OF the South With Fair
Prornisee and Omces.

Senate. T!llman spoke to nearly
th,ee thousand people at Fountain
Inn, Greenv!l!e county. on last
Thursday. His audience was COM
posed largely OF farmers. and gave
i the Senator close attention and 1re-
quent applause. He seems TO be in
ane health and spoke with his old
time eloquence and power. He cap
tured the crowd. as he usually does.
wi:h his hard sense ard out-spoken
utterances.
The Senator discussed compulsory
education and other i've topic. o.. as
he put 4, after arriving at Green
VILE took @ kind Of general sub
ject," and said just what be felt like
saying.
Among other things Senator TIL
man expressed bis opinion on the re-
suit OF the recent dispensary cleo
t.on throughout the State and said
that he was glad TO see that the
State was going dry" and hoped
that tie remaining counties which
now are wet would soon vote out
the dispensary. The State and
News and Courier had educated the
people Of the State TO such a height,
he said, that they are now ready to
vote the dispensa.y out IN nearly
all the counties.
LET all drink water out OF the

doesn't matter which
In speaking os the relations OF
President TAFT with Southern pee
pie, Senator Tillnan said that Pres
ident TAFT was trying to debauch the
people OF the South with fair prom
ises and Offices. He read over to
the gathering the Republican par
tvs platform or planks Of It. and
said that Taft's purpose was to Sc
duce enough white men in the South
to organize a respectable Repuo!i-
can party. bringing the negroes IN
as a balance Of power.
Missouri and Kentucky were al
ready in the doubtful column and
West Virginia was gone. All that
was necessary to ne,nopolise the ne
gro IN South Caro!iaa was to
have enough white men bought OF
and to register the negroes that are
capable Of being registered. There
FORE" Senator T!lin.a said. any
thing along ;He line OF increasing
the nu:nbnr Of negroes who can read
and write and who could. there

height OF folly IN his judgment"
II the white children could DO
sent to school by compulsory law
without the colored children going
also. Tillman said. he would favor
such an enactment. but the 18th
amendment expressly prohibits any
citizen on account OF race. color.
etc. Tie negroes would benefit By
the compulsory Law and the white
man would have to pay the taxes
for the negro's education.

DIED.,
The Columbus Base Ball
Team Meets an Untimely
End-'Twas Hung on En-

It was heralded about the
country last week that there
would be a good ball game
at Ervin's park Sunday,
June 27, and in anticipation
of it a big crowd went out
to the park to see the game.
The Columbus boys, a fine
lot of fellows, came down in
good spirits, and expected
to have an easy time with
Baxter's kid ball team.
Some of the Columbus
team are old heads at base
ball, but for some reason
they could not have any
luck, and at the end of the
game it was deemed appro-
pirate to tie Grape on them,
but nobody in the crowd
had any Grape.
The game all the way
was a touching affair. The
Columbus team was touched
up very badly, and there
were tears in the eyes of the
spectators, so sad was the
result. The entire Colum-
bus aggregation was MUIR
dered, slaughtered, put out
of the way, made way with
and everything else. In the
first inning the pitcher,
Cloudy, was killed off, and
another sacrifice was of
fered, but he was not much
better, and in a short time
he, too, died.
Oh, it was simply awful,
and when the adding ma
chine was put to work at
the close of the game 1t was
found that the home boys
had made fifteen runs, while
the visitors lacked sixteen
of making any at all.
The Baxter bunch is a
swift one for sure, and every
member of the team Is an
amateur star. Homer Dow
ty pitched and Earl Abrams
caught, and the way the
visitors were cut down was
like knocking shoats in the
head with an axe. But the
battery had good support,
all that could be asked.
The score by innings;
Columbus--000000000-- 20
Baxter ~6O090000x--1S

told us the other day that it is
growing so fast it is brittle and
the stalks snap in two very easi-

in the next few days. Some far
mers claim they have laid their
corn by already, but we are of
the opinion they had better go
over 1t a couple of times more.
Especially should this be done,
that is, if it should turn off dry.

The little lady had finished her

The little lady had finished neF
speech and resumed her place at the
back of the room. Others followed
her and the question was tossed back
and forth like a ball from hand TO-
hand. Finally, the decision reacneo
was that where sacrifices must pc
made they should be made at home
and that church gatherings should De
as affiuent of good cheer, as overflow
ing of bounty, as ever before. one
egg cake was not to be accepted as
the symbol of Centreville Church hos
pitality.
To one listener it seemed as II the
Ladies' Aid had been guided to the
wisest conclusion. Retrenchment is
often advisable, and superfuities may
be cut off, but hard times are made
harder when those who can afford to
do otherwise reduce their expenses
simply because the spirit of economy
is in the air. Economy in its root
meaning signifies government and sue
cessful management, not merely the
reduction to the minimum of every
cent expended The woman who IN
lavish times runs her house on lavish
lines, should not be suddenly meagre
because her neighbors have to be, her
own exchequer having suffered no re-
duction. It is no credit to her to wear
old clothes when she can afford new
ones, thus limiting the revenues OF
the dressmaker and the milliner, nor
to set her servants adrift while she
can as well as ever before keep them
and pay them wages. People VINO
begin their economy, SO to speak, at
the church door, curtailing their do
nations, taking sittings instead OF a
pew and halving their contributions
instead of doubling them, almost
