Colonel Wesley R. Andrews, chair.
man of the Republican state commit.
tee, today sounded a note of warning
to the Republicans of Pennsylvania.
He made it clear that he expects
every Republican voter in this state
to do his duty on Nov. 2.
With election day only about one
week off the state chairman insists
that there must be lining up of the
Republican forces in every county if
the Republican ticket is to be elected,
as it ought to be, by an overwhelming
majority. Since early in September
Chairman Andrews. from the head
quarters of the Republican state COM
mittee in this city, has been directing
an aggressive campaign. Not that the
Republican ticket is in danger; 1t Is
not But many Republicans of Penn
sylvania frequently take Republican
success for granted and make no espe-
cial effort to go to the polls.
It was this danger of over-confidence
that Colonel Andrews had in mind to-
day.
pennsylvania is the banner Repub
lican state; we have the votes, and to
poll the right kind of majority 1t IS
only necessary for the voters to cast
their ballots" said the chairman
"Many Republicans in an off-year like
this, when there is no particular eX-
citement, proceed upon the theory that
the rest of the party will vote and thus
insure the election of the ticket Now
it is an axiom of warfare that an
| army must constantly be on guard. |
want to warn the Republicans of this
state against the last card in politics.
They should see that Democratic ef-
fort does not threaten Republican sue
cess.
"The Republican party has a splen-
did ticket A better one has never
been offered the people of Pennsylva-
MIA A. E. Sisson and ]. A. Stober are
able and experienced men; they have
records that commend them to the
people, and they are public spirited
citizens They will contribute their
full share to a continuance of good
government in this commonwealth.

National and State Issues.

''As | have repeatedly said, the
elections in Pennsylvania this year are
of national importance. A failure of
the Republicans of the Keystone State
to score a handsome majority would
be accepted by the low tariff revision
lists of the middle west as evidence
that our people are not particularly in
terested in the protective system.
"a reduced majority will furnish an
impetus to agitation for lowering of
the tariff rates. Pennsylvania is sat
isfied with the new tariff law because
it is bringing prosperity. 1t should be
the first state to record its indorse-
ment of that legislation.
"There is another and very sound
reason why the Republicans of the
Keystone State should poll an unpre-
cedented off-year majority at the COM

The Judicial Canvass.

Judge Robert Won MoSchZiSker Will
make a great supreme court justice.
He has splendid record as a COM
mon pleas pudge; he is known to the
lawyers of the state as one of the
ablest members of the Pennsylvania
bar, and he has the confidence of all
of the people. Not a syllable has
been uttered against him since his
nomination. His qualifications for the
supreme bench are conceded by every
body. He ought to be elected by a
tremendous majority. His Democratic
opponent, Mr.. Munson, is presenting
this state with a spectacle 1t has never
/ before witnessed. He is the only can
didate for a high judicial office, who,
in his eagerness for election, has so
far overlooked the proprieties as to
make a personal and compromising
campaign for votes. He is now on a
campaign tour, meeting the voters and
making what are nothing more nor
less than ordinary stump speeches. In
Williamsport he maintains large lit
erary bureau. which has sent out
thousands of documents and letters,
in which he asks the voters to sup
port him as a non-partisan candidate.
He has adopted the endless chain sys-
tenn of letter writing and by this
means hopes to reach every voter in
the state.
"The old-fashioned idea that judi
cial office should seek the man and not
the man seek the Office manifestly has
no place in the Democratic candidates
plan of politics. | do not believe many
Republicans will entertain for a mo
ment the proposition that they vote
for a Democratic candidate for the su
preme court
"Mr. Munson's conduct in the cam
paign illustrates his conception of the
dignity of the highest judicial tribuna
in this commonwealth. Judge vor
Moschzisker has taken no part what
ever in the campaign. He has aslleC
no one to vote for him. He will take
his seat on the supreme bench with
out having violated its sacred tradi
tions

ticed, but what seems to have es-
capped the editor of the esteemed con,
temporary. that not one word or sen
tence in the three-column editorial Of
yesterday morning can be twisted
into the remotest suggestion of an a.
tack upon Judge Butler as a man or
as a citizen. The criticism was con
fined wholly, in thought and in WORT
to his official record, as Judge and as
states attorney; to his conduct as
public seryant-and this is legitimate
subject matter for criticism
Moreover. every charge made
against Mr. Butler, either az Judge
or as states attorney. in so far as it
may be called a charge was sustained
by a citation Of circumstances and
facts which were matters of personal
knowledge OF the editor Of this paper,
or attested by men Of unquestionahla
yeracity to whom the circumstances
and facts were personally known
Malice in the ordinary sense Of the
term, is defined by tie dictionary as
"any wicked or malicious intention
OF the mind; depraved inclination
to mischief; an intention to yex, an
noy or iniure another person, or to
do a wrongful act without Just cause
OF excuse; a wanton disregard Of the
rights or safety of others; willfl

In law the definition is: Enmity

PENALTY FOR KIDNAPPING

There has been considerable dis
cussion OF late as to what the State OF
South Carolina has fixed as the pen
atty for Kidnapping. Prior to 1902
the law provided maximum i'm
prisonmcnt OF one year in the State
Dcnitentiary or maximum fine of
five hundred dollars. In 1902, how
ever, the law was changed so as to
read as follows:
''Any person who shall take or
convey, or cause to be taken or con-
NcyCd, away, any minor or person
under the age OF twcnty-onc years,
from the possession Of the parent or
guardian, or procure and carry such
minor without the limits Of the State.
without the consent of such parent
or guardian. with intent to secure a
reward for the return Of such minor.
shall, upon conviction thereof, be i'm
priSOncd in the pcnitentiary for the
period Of his or her natural life"

JAMES II. ADAMS.

In the death Of James II. Adams,
which occurred at Glenn Springs
Wednesday Of last week, Oconee lost
one Of her best and most progressive
citizens, and there are people from
one end Of the county to the other
who mourn his death with genuine
sorrow. He was a man universally
liked and esteemed. He was
Staunch and true friend of The Kco-
wee Courier, and we will miss his
pleasant calls at our office Only a
week before his death he stopped
while to chat with us, and he gave
us hints of numerous plans he bad
for the future in upbuilding work
for his town and county. He will be
greatly missed in all circles, and we
mourn with his family and relatives
at his loss. His place will indeed
be hard to fill.

FLAllEs SWEEP FORT WORTH.
Property Valued Mt $45O,OOO Sacri-
feed to BlaZc-Onc Life Lost.

Fort Worth, Texas, April g.
Starting In barn, presumably from
q carelessly thrown cigarette, fire
this afternoon burned over 20 blocks
in the residence section of Fort
Worth, destroying four churches,
over 200 residences, and the round
house and machine shops OF the
Texas and Pacific railroad 1t Is i'm
possible to secure estimates Of losses
and insurance which are in any de-
gree accurate, and it will be day or
two before the full extent Of the per-
Sonal losses are known.
Texas & Pacific railroad officers
place the company's loss at $780,
900. The losses to church property
include the Broadway Baptist and
the Methodist churches, their losses
being estimated conservatively at
over 100000.
From Annie street on the south,
between Jennings and Calhoun
streets. everything was swept clean
to the Texas and Pacific railroad res
ervation. Here a strip of unoccu-
pied territory about 700 feet wide
checked the flames and saved the
business section of the city from
destruction, as the flames we're
famed by stiff wind and all efforts
to stay their progress had been una
vailing.
At least one life was lost, and it
may be that others were caught in
the fire. Six people were seriously
injured, but they will recover.

MONUMENT TO OUR WOMEN.

We have noted with regret that
Oconce Is almost without representa-
tion in the matter of contributions
to the fund for the monument to be
erected to the women of this State.
So far We have noticed contribu-
Certainly this IS not doing our part.
This contribution was made by w. p.
Anderson. of Westminster
We feel sure that the cause of this
fund is due entirely to the lack of a
leader to undertake thc raising of
funds. TO go around and solicit
contributions is not always Il pleas
ant task, and frequently calls for
moro time than can be spared by an
individual. 0ConCc ought to be sol
idly represented in the raising of
funds for this memorial TO the noble
women of the State.
While we have not been author
lied or asked by those in charge of
this work to take hand in the mat
ter, yet we feel that Oconee not only
ought to be represented, but wants
to be. For this reason we take it
upon ourselves to offer to receive
contributions for the monument to
our women, and will remit same to
the proper authoriti and acknowl-
edge all contributions through the
columns of The Courier each wHCn
II YOU are so situated tina; it is in
convenient TO make your contribu-
don direct to us, 90 to your nearest
bank and leave your contribution
there. We know that every banker
in the county will take pleasure in
attending to your contributions.
Come forward with your contribu-
tions promptly, and let us see how
large Il sum we can raise to report
by Wednesday, April l4th. y start
is all that Is needed, and others will
follow your lead. Don't wait for
your neighbor to contribute first.

A Memphis woman has been ar
rested and has confessed that she Is
the leader of an organized gang of
burglars. Verify the girls are TAX
ing hand in all the professions.
The present tariff bill before Con-
gress calls for an addition Of 20 per
cent on commercial fertilizer pro-
ducts. This would lay additional
tribute OF about 100000 on the
South Carolina farmer, which is man
ifestly unjust. Nevertheless it
would have one good effect-it
would force the farmers to do what
they. ought to have done long ago,
and that Is to make and use more
compost fertilizer.
