Editor Advertiser: | do not know
Judge Robertson, personally; and, even
if l did, 1 would not venture to act
as judge in this matter, ''Rath VS.. Rob
ertson, you mention this morning. But
on general principles, every reader must
render to himself some sort of deci-
sion. And, on general principles | sup
port Mr.. Rath as contention.
/ realize that a strong, passionate
nature must be the foundation in every
great man. Only such men make the
world move. But l have known such
men who lived moral lives--who could
say at the close of life, Ny blood is
not in this world without my name.
And>knowing these men, l know that
this whole matter is largely matter
of early training, of early associations
and influences.
immortality usually begins during the
early years, while the pressure is great
est and before the idea of social re-
sponsibility is well developed. Young
men see and associate with men who
have been immoral, in many of the best
places society has 20 offer, and know
tHdL SUcItly has 1OiSINcA tutA their
debt, cit amounts to that); and seeing
this, they do not hesitate as they would
under other conditions. For men are
largely product of conditions.
1t is something like a man stealing
million, knowing he will not be fined
more than a thousand. 1t requires a
pretty well developed morality to not
take the million.
It is something like the officials of
the Sugar Trust enjoying the results
of dishonesty and allowing the stigma
to fall upon the other person.
l venture the prophecy that the com
ing generations viii condemn Napoleon
| for the ''Code Napoleon" as much as
for his selfish slaughter of the best
men of Europe; and that they will be
more ashamed of the "Double Stand
ard" of their ancestors, than of the
''Sweat Shop SYSTEM or of the Chile
Labor Degeneracy.
This, l take it, is Mr.. Rath's con
| tention. U. THOMPSON.

rs AGAINST THE LAW.

Editor Advertiser:-I wish to ask
YOU through the columns of your valu-
able paper if there is any law to pre-
vent the storekeepers, especially Japan
csc second hand dealers on upper Fort
street, from crowding the sidewalk to
the detriment of passersby, who have
to pick their way through all kinds of
miscellaneous articles? They take the
sidewalk as part of their store and
think they are entitled to it, filing it
ND with boxes and mattresses, etc.
which is not very inducive to the health
of the public in this tropical climate
Hoping l am not encroaching on your

White Man Killed by Train.

Anderson, Aug. 6.-Robert M.
Ritchie, a white man of 35 years of
age, was run over. and killed by a
train near Pendleton on the Blue
Ridge railway at an early hour this
morning. The train was special
an excursion train on it's return trip
from Asheville. On Ritchie's body
was found $14S in money and near
him was satchel. This dispels the
first idea advanced that he was killed
and robbed and placed on the track
by his assassin. It is believed that
he was drunk and that he went to
sleep on the track. His body was hor-
ribly mangled, being cut nearly in
two.
He was unmarried and lived near
where the accident occurred. The
body was found this morning.
Ritchie served a sentence on the
county chaingang for slashing Sher-
if Green and his deputy at the fair
grounds three years ago when they
attempted to arrest him.

DRYS LOSING GROUND.
Sentiment is Changing and the Vote
on August II Will be Close.

Florence, August 1.-The prohibi-
tionists as well as the anti-prohibi-
tionists in Florence county, all SEEM
ed to be well stirred up now and
there is going to be "hot time' in
the county from now till 4 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon, August II.
The prohibitionists have had full
sway throughout the county all the
while, but it seems as if they have
gotten into the lair of the antis and
have been capturing some Of their
members, and the ants are awaken
ing and getting to work with vim.
At one time it looked as if the whole
of Florence county was going to vote
the prohibition ticket and would be
glad of the opportunity, but senti-
ment seems to be. changing, whether
or not it is because the county has
been dry since August 8, or not can
not betold. At any rate the vote is
going to be greatly reduced on the
prohibition side on election day to
what it looked two weeks ago.

Big Deal in Coal Lands.

Bristol, Tenn, Aug. "a special
from Pennington Gap, Va, states
that N. D. Bachman, Jr., of Bristol,
general manager, and Paul Dulaney,
of Washington, d. c., to-day con-
summated a deal by which the Black
Mountain Corporation, of Alexandria,
Va, comes into possession of 1000
acres of coal lands adjoining exten-
sive holdings of the company in Lee
county, Va. The deal involves sew
eraI hundred thousand dollars.
This transaction practically gives
the company complete control of the
Little Black Mountain field, which is
estimated to contain more than a
billion tons of coal. Among the cap
italists interested are: Charles M
Warren and Charles H. Zehuder, OF
New York.

Urges More Work on Congaree.

Washington, Aug. 5.-The chief
engineer of the war department has
made report to the secretary of war
recommending the appropriation of
$4,000 for the improvement of the
Congaree river. This information
was obtained by Representative Le-
yer.
The purpose of the appropriation
is to raise the pool level two feet and
permit of five-foot channel from
Columbia to Georgetown. Represen-
tative Lever hopes to obtain the az
preparation at the coming session OF
congress, which has been recon-
mended in accordance with the pro-
visions of the last river and harbor
act.

Shot Himself in Street.

Albany, Ca, Aug. "A hundred
passers by in a business street to-day
saw Homer Santipher, aged "a, shoot
himself in the breast with a pistol,
after a friend, Walter Keaton, had
vainly struggled with the young man
to prevent the act.
Keaton was shot through the left
hand in a desperate effort to defect
a bullet Santipher tried to send into
his own body. Keaton's wound pre-
vented him from saving his friend.
The two men were sitting together
quietly talking when Santipher sud
denly jumped to his feet and cried:
81 believe I will kill myself" and
pulled his pistol. The second shot he
fired struck beneath his heart and he
will die.

Preacher Warned to Leave.

Ethel, Miss, Aug. 4.-Indignation
was caused here today by dispatch
from Cincinatti quoting Rev. Frank
B. English as saying that he was
threatened with mob violence and
driven out of Ethel without anything
to eat when he came to take the pres
idency of Rust University at Holly
Springs.
Leading citizens of Ethel admit
that Mr.. English was told to leave
town because he was seen shaking
hands with negroes and acting fam
iliarly towards them, which they be-
lieve would excite the blacks and
stir up race strife.
They say, however, that no mob
was formed and that no threats were
made. They say Mr.. English became
frightened when told that it would
be better for him to leave.

Saws His Way to Liberty.

= Butler, Ca, Aug. 5.-Ben Garrett
a desperate prisoner confined in the
Taylor county Jail, sawed his way to
liberty to-day, releasing five other
white men charged with serious
crimes.
Garrett was recently arrested in
Antelos, OKLA, charged with the
murder of Frank Wilcher, at this
place, December 19, 1903.
Judge Price Gilbert had called a
special term of the superior court in
order to give Garrett a speedy trial,
the case being set for next Monday.
A saw was smuggled to the prison
er and with this he cut the iron
gratings.

Cut Babe Durham's Still

Greenville, Aug. 6.-Revenue OFF,
GERS have returned to the city from
the Dark Corner, where they cut up a
large 2O0-gallon distillery in the
neighborhood of Babe Durham's s
place. The plant was not in opera
ton, but the officers found quantity
of beer and whiskey, which they
poured out.
The ubiquitous moonshiner is now
learning to evade the revenues
much more astutely than in the old
days. The method now employed by
the manufacturers of white liquor, OF
placing outposts and lookouts on the
roads leading to the mountains,
makes it hard for the officers to make
an arrest.

Seaborn Wright Speaks in Bamberg

Bamberg, Aug. 5.-Hon. Seaborn
Wright spoke here to-day for an
hour or more to an audience which
filled the court house to it's seating
capacity. Prohibition was his theme,
and not. from a moral standpoint in
particular, but more especially from
business point of view, Mr.. Wright
discussed the pros and cons of the
question.
Without heat or passion, without
appeal to any but the best in man,
the speaker gave lucid and clear
argument for the abolition of the
county dispensary in Bamberg coun-
ty. Facts and figures as presented
by the speaker and verified by inves.
LEGATIONS, gave a new point of view
to many who were present to-day.
One gentleman who is known to be
in favor of the dispensary stated
openly that several new ideas had
been presented to him to-day. He
did not say that he would change his
attitude in the approaching election,
but it is the current opinion that
many will be Influenced by the array
of favorable argument.
The law and order league, which
was formed here last week, held an
other meeting to-day for the purpose
of extending the organization
throughout the county. The men
who are behind this movement are OF
the very best in the county, and it is
a we'll known fact that blind tigers
will be prosecuted and run out of the
community and public opinion will
doubtless make it so hot for the IT,
gers that they will be very quiet. The
law and order league will be per-
manent organization and will have
for it's particular work that of hunt
ing out the secret rum shops.

LIQUOR DROUGHT in ALABAMA.
Passage of Carmichael Bill Has In
stant and Striking Effect.

Montgomery, Ala, August 6.-The
Carmichael prohibition bill-far more
drastic than the present statutory
Statewide prohibition law-which
passed the senate this afternoon by
a vote of % to 2, and which now
awaits only the signature of Alaba-
mas prohibition executive to be the
law, has already scored far-reach-
ing effect, so far as the operation of
locker clubs and near-beer saloons
are concerned. From all parts of the
State come reports that with the
news of the passage of the Carmich-
ael bill near-beer saloons, and clubs,
wherein liquors have been dispensed
to members under the locker system,
were dismantled and tonight the
State is almost as dry as it will ever
be.
In Montgomery even social clubs
of the highest class have been closed,
and early in the afternoon the near
beer men began theremoval of all
drinkables from their places. With
considerable WEAKNESS, few of the
saloons are disposing of occasional
bottles of the amber fluid of the
'tnear" kind, but even those of the
quenchless thirst are extremely eau
tious in attempting to secure drink
abIes.

FLORENCE POSTOFFICE NATTER.
Situation Still Badly Mixed-No
Move Before Next Winter.

Washington, August 6.-When
President Taft left Washington this
afternoon for his summer home in
Massachusetts, no intimation could
be had as to what steps would be
taken in the Florence postoffice mat
ter. The situation appears still to be
badly mixed as the result of efforts
to land various candidates several
months ago. 1t is probable, there
fore, that nothing further will be
done until next winter. Meantime
Josh Wilson will hold the fort.

than tin," ventured one of his hear
ers, with a subdued snicker.
Wow! where's the four-legged
son of a cayuse that said this here
headpiece was muskrat?' fairly
howled the stranger, grabbing his
tattered cap W.. one hand and -four
ishing it aroun. LIS lead while he in
dulged in startling war dance.
ANY cross-eysd, p'isened pup what
says that amt the genuine, two-year-
old seal, right from the icebergs Of
the Fiji Islands, I'll eat him, body
an boots!'
A distinct silence followed this
lurid declaration, and after ordering
second round of drinks, the "Cy-
clone" discovered another world to
conquer.
In glaring around the room, his
eyes for the first time took in the
outlines of a small, quiet-appearing
man seated at table in remote
corner, eating a frugal lunch and
washing it down with glass Of ale.
With a roar, the festive stranger
skipped across the room and aimed
sweeping kick at the table for the
purpose Of overturning it, glass,
dishes and all
But the quiet little man in the cor
ner merely leaned forward and
grasped the edges Of the table with
both hands, and the vigorous kick
failed to make any impression there
on.
With a howl of rage, the bully
"hauled off, to give it another and
more telling crash with his heavy
boot. AS he did so, the small table
came sailing through the air, striking
him fairly in the face! And being but
precariously balanced on one foot, he
went down with a crash that shook
the whole building.
The Cyclone scrambled TO lis Ieet
in a half-dazed way, to find himself
looking down the muzzle of a pistol
held in a hand which was firm as a
rock.
"Now you make tracks out Of this
camp just as lively as you know how,
or you're going to get into serious
trouble" said the little man in a tone
which sounded as though he meant
exactly what he said.
"Hurrah for Buckskin SAM"
shouted the bystanders in lusty
chorus.
And at the sound of the magic
name, the Cyclone from Salt River
turned pale and dashed out through
the doorway as if Satan himself was
in hot pursuit.-Clyde Scott Chase, in
Los Angeles Times.
