Stripped of His Platform.
(From the News and Courier.

(From the News and Courier.)
"B" i'm an editorial article in the
Laurens Advertiser argues earnestly
with the men of that county to lay
aside all personal likes and dislikes
and cast their ballots for a Laurens
man for governor, the same being Mr..
Featherstone.
"If you are convinced that prohibit
ton is wrong and that the question
is one Of profound Importance this
year, you should vote against Feather
stone" they are told, but in the very
next breath they are urged to believe
that the passage of a prohibition law
would really amount to nothing at all,
THE enactment Of State prohibi-
ton law would scarcely be felt, you
would never know it," says The Ad-
vertiser.
In that event. where, pray, does
Candidate Featherstone stand? He is
the man who has injected the liquor
issue into the present campaign. He
has declared on dozen platforms that
he had no apology to make for having
done so. Upon the necessity, as he
sees it, for Statewide prohibition
law has his campaign been based.
Yet here comes his foremost news
paper champion and declares, albeit
sotto voce to the voters of it's own
county, that there is no practical i'm
portance in the issue" Verify, The
Advertiser has stripped its candidate
of his platform.

of raising a mule need not be more
than onehalf the average Selling price,
in recent years.
Counting the depreciation in the
value of mare and the interest on
the money invested In her at $40 a
year, allowing $40 as the service fee
of the jack and calculating one mule
colt to two mares, we have $50 as the
cost of the mule colt. If to this we
add $25 year for his breeding, we
have two-year-old mule at a cost
of 500; or three-year-old mule at
a cost of $125. OF course, it will cost
more than $25 to properly grow a
mule from 2 to 3 years of age, but
during this time he may be broken
and earn in work performed a good
share Of his keep. Even on this liber-
al estimate profit Of from SIS to
500 may be made on each 3-year-old
mule. This alone, even though there
were no other reasons why we should
grow more, should be sufficient to in
duce any farmer to consider the di-
rect profits of mule raising most ia
voSably.-Raleigh IN. c. Progressive
Farmer and Gazette.

Why Many Babies Die.

a baby cannot digest any kind Of
starchy food until after he is six
months old, and it is better to give him
nothing but milk until toward the end
of the first year, and the mother or
northumberland | make special
mention of grandmothers, because |
have seen many offending ones-who
puts into the baby's mouth morsel
of solid food before the baby is six
months old, endangers the life of that
same baby.-NIrs. f. l.. Stevens in Ra-

Mr.. Featherstones administration

governor who would BIZ conspicuous

American states.
MIR. Mcleod is an excellent gentle
man, popular man "jolly, good
fellow IL his career has been mark

en- him reputation for unusual abil-
!ty in the State, it has not been widely
advertised by his supporters-unless
to be elected lieutenant governor,

Mr.. Featherstone has been a rec
ognized leader in South Carolina for
twelve years. Time and again he has

South Carolina as a leader of the
bar. He !s so recognized by the judg-

people. There was never a doubt as
to his position on any public question.
He has not feared to be with n minor
ity when he believed the minority was
right. He has never supported the
State dispensary.

AN INYITATION mo- STRIP.

ing much Of the advocacy of Feather
stone by an anti-prohibitionist who
believes him the strongest, ablest best
man by odds for governor, and says
we have stripped him of his plat
form. Who made us keeper Of Fea-
therstone's platform, Sirrah, and when
did you see us with it? But speaking
of stripping" (don't get excited--we
shall not be immodes), let's both of
us strip and tell the stark, naked
truth.
Your man Mcleod is no local op.
tionist"-he is Carey Cothran law
man; lie excludes license, and license
is constitutional, so he is a prohibi-
ZIONIST as to license. Isn't that true?
Since it is a choice between prohibit
tionists, why shouldn't we support the
best? That's Featherstone.
Now the blind tigers of Charleston
and their friends Will resist the en-
forcement of any liquor law that does
not permit them, as individuals in
dependent of the county and State. TO
know that, and that Mcleod doesn't
favor That's not his pledge. He'll
keep his pledge He is not trying to
fool the people of South Carolina.
We say and say it openly that Char
lesion should have license system.
These are not Featherstones views
but they are ours (he is not the keeper
s of our patform) and we are ready to
advocate that Charleston have the only
kind of liquor legislation that will give
Charleston peace.
But Mcleod isn't-he is for local
option save the mark--between
county dispensaries and prohibition
You can't hope to get under Nc
Leod administration anything else
without accusing him of clandestine
dealing with Charleston, without i'm
pugning his good faith, without charg-
ing him with duplicity-with an un-
derground contract OF that he 1will
not be guilty. Your attitude justifies
suspicion that you are banking on
McLeod's weakncss-it is possible that
