VOTE FOR THE AMENDMENTS.
Save the County Big Expense by Doing
Away With the February Election.
All Officers to be Elected in Fall.

At the election IN next month,
the voters of this state will pass
upon two amendments to the
State Constitution, which, If they
carry, thousands of dollars will
be saved every year in the mat
ter Of holding elections. But as
they are expressed In somewhat
technical legal phraseology, and
no doubt appear rather formlda.
BILE to many of our readers, it
may be worth while to try to
make the meaning little palmer.
Briefly stated their purpose Is
to reduce the number of elections
and to provide that hereafter the
general and municipal elections
shall be separated. 1t is pro,
posed that the general elections,
those at which State officers
shall be chosen, shall be held on
the Tuesday following the first
Monday in Novem Der In the even
mum bered years, while all county
and municipal officers shall be
elected IN Novem Der IN the odd
mum bered years. This will elm
mate altogether the February
elections, and not only effect a
great saving IN expense, but limit
the disturbing effects of political
campaigns to one election year.
A still more important result, in
the opinion Of election reformers,
will be the total separation of
municipal election issues from
tn Sc attached to State and ma.
tional campaigns.
The amendments will undou bt.
edly carry, as there could be no
reasonable opposition to them.
The only thing that could endan-
ger their adoption by the popular
vote would be such a public in
difference to the public welfare
as to fail to understand what the
amendments proposed and a dis
position to vote against the
amendments for the reason that
the voters had not taken the
troub BILE to understand their pur-
pose.

Wednesday the mill was IN oper-

closed down and the men went to
the house, only a short distance
away, for dinner. While seated
at dinner they heard a roaring,
cracking noise, and looked in the
direction of the mill saw black
smoke rolling up, and flames
bursting forth. Without waiting
to eat pie, every one rushed out
and then began a battle-royal
with the devouring element.
While the men we're dong every.
thing possible to save as much of
the machinery as possible, Mr.
McClaln's daughter was vigor-
ously pulling on the dinner. bell

to appear on the scene. OF course,

handicapped the frefghters, and

women were alone. Mrs. Wilson
ran down to David Straits, and
Mrs. Strait and her son Thur
man, came tie their aid as soon as
possible; but everything was sc
dry, aud water so scarce, that the
most that could be done was to
try to save as much of the con-
tents of the house as possible.
Outside of few articles, every
