We respectfully call attention to
the fact that all notices of po-
litical nature whether boosting
a particular candidate or card :
of thanks or clippings from other
newspapers favoring certain candi-
dates, must be paid for at ad-
vertising rates. This applies to
State and county candidates. For
,ur protection we were forced to
adopt this rule several years ago,
as the week or two preceding an
election the paper contained very
little else than eulogies of some
body's favorite candidate. 1t costs
money to set type and certainly
if you want to favor your friend
it is unreasonable to ask us to
foot the bill. We have had to
decline at least a half dozen ar
ticles of this nature during the
present campaign which, all told,
would have amounted to about
twenty columns of our type.

COMMISSION LET'S CONTRACT
To Page & Reeves Of Dillon TO
Survey Seeding Territory.

At a meeting of the annexation
commission held Monday, Messrs.
Page and Reeves of Dillon were
employed to make the necessary sur
vey of that portion of Williamsburg,
which has petitioned to be annexed to
Florence county. The work will be
commenced at once. This survey
will take in only two sides of the
territory named in the petition, as
the Government river survey on one
side and Florence county line on the
other will be accepted. The length
of line to be surveyed is supposed to
run about fifteen miles and the ter
ritory seeking annexation contains
some eighty square miles.

The candidates for the General As
sembly really have but one issue up
on which there seems to be any great
difference Of opinion-that is the
Banquo's ghost that will not down;
the same perplexing problem that
has been threshed out on the hus-
tings biennially for a score Of years
and is as near settled today as it was
in the beginning Of history or ever
will be, to the entire satisfaction of a
great many people. 1t looks like a
waste Of time to be eternally harp
ing on the same string, but the issue
seems to be inevitable and then it is
a subject which always commands
attention when skilfully handled, it
matters not how often or how thor
oughly the same audience may have
heard the changes rung along the !
whole diapason. AS we gathered !
from their expressions yesterday two
of the Senatorial candidates, Messrs
Carter and Epps, favor Statewide
prohibition and would support such
a measure should the opportunity
arise. Mr. Beasley declared unequiv-
ocally for local option-which we un-
derstand to mean that he would give
every county the right to decide the {
question of prohibition independent
ly of the rest of the State.
Of the six candidates for the
Lover House three expressed them
selves as favor;ng Statewide pro-
hibition, viz, Messrs Camlin, Chap
man and Prosser while Messrs Chan
dler and Kellahan announced that |
they favored local option in prefer
ence to Statewide prohibition. So
far as we know Mr. J C. Graham has
not yet announced his views on this
question.

Taking up room in the different
navy yards which could be put To a
better purpose, and still, though out
OF commission, a responsibility and
an expense, are thirty United States
retired war vessels that are of no
use whatever To their owner or, APP
parently to anybody else. At least.
nobody appears to want them or any
of them. They range from vessels
OF the old gunboat type to the bat
tleship that was considered entirely
modern a few years ago but that has
now become antique. Taken altogether,
these vessels cost the American tax
payer millions; now they would bring
the price of old junk. only a junk
dealer of large capital could handle
them, however. and il is doubtful if a
more economical way of disposing Of
them could be found than that of
towing them out to the middle of the
ocean and blowing them up.
Yet ii is a hard matter to part with
them in this way-they cost so much.
Somebody has advised that they be
sold or given to citizens who might
use them as private yachts, but It
would require a crew of 300 men TO
man the largest of them. while the
smallest would consume more fuel
in a day than n modern yacht would
require I'm a week.
Commodore Beechler has advanced
the idea of reconstructing them into
forts for the protection of our great
seacoast cities. To do this. islands
would have to be constructed around
them, and in the long run it would be
cheaper to build Notifications that
would be up-to-date. They do not
seem to be wanted anywhere, least OF
all where they are at present. and
where visitors TO the navy yards may
see them and comment upon the eph-
emeral nature Of warships i'm general
as well as these warships i'm particu-

The unfortunate thing is that their
existence must be reported to Con-

the navy, and that they must become
