To Get Together.

When ~we.consider that just before the
time Of Henry the VIII. There was only
n Christian Church, and that now there
are so many that they can hardly be coun-
ted We wonder where it will all end. There
are Presbyterians, Northern Cumberland,
Welsh Calvanistic, United, Southern, Asso-
ciate, Associate Reformed, Reformed, Ref
ormed, C~ovenanted, Reformed General Sy-
nod. There are Methodists; Episcopal, I'm
ion American, Methodist Protestant, Wis
leyan, NJ. E. South, Congregational, New
Congregational, Zion Union Apostolic, Pri-
mitive, Free, Independent, Evangelist
Missionary, etc. There are Lutherans
General Synod, United Synod. Gen. Coun-
Gil, Synodical conference, United, Ohio,
Buffalo. Hauges, Eielsens, Texas, Iowa,
Norwegian, Mich, Danish in America, Ice
landic, Emmanuel, Suomai, Norwegian
Free, Danish, Slovakian, Finnish, Indepen'
dents, and Others, There are Baptists
Regular North, Regular South, six princi'
pie, seventh day, Free will, Original Free
will, General, Separate, United, Church o.
Christ, Primitive, Old two seed in the
spirit Professionalism, Church OF God anc
saints Of Christ, etc. There are Adventists
Evangelical, Advent christians, Seventh
Day. Church of God, Life md Advent
Union, Churches of God in Jesus Christ

Brethren II, Brethren III, Brethren ~, etc
When we consider these churches anc

societies, the Salvation Army, the Schwen

Day Saints, Friends, Evangelical Bodies

Splits and scisms and divisions in Chris
tian Churches goes steadily on. Creeds
and dogmas are added and multiplied anc

But the Bible does not change. We still
have that. So If we make it the man o.

J. P. Morgan has given sloo, 900 for this

Democratic Campaign Book.

The Index has received a copy. OF the
Democratic campaign hand book, the book
which is being used with telling effect
against Republicans in sections where the
Republicans have had things their "
way for quite awhile. On page 1876 OF the
boog appears a speech delivered in Con
eress March %, 1910 by Hon. Wyatt Aiken
On Foreign Prices" Added interest at
taches to this speech as 1t contains many
quotations from letters Of Zach McGhee
which appeared in the State last winter:
these letters showing a comparison OF
prices for commodities here and in free
trade England.-"Index" Oct. 20, 1910.
This Is an exceedingly nice complement
to Congressman Aiken. There are some
eighty odd Southern Congressman from
the South and there are only two or three
tariff speeches in the campaign book and
that his should be mi Of these should be
very gratifying to him.
But this has occurred before with MI.
Aiken. In the last Presidential election
his was one Of four speeches on the tariff
that went into the campaign book as the
message to the people.

What The People Think.

Rev. E.. B.. Kennedy says OF the Scotch
Singers Monday night at the High Schoo
Auditorium:
Twas delighted with the entertainment
and think shows Of this class are calculat-
ed to do a great deal of good in a commu-
nifty.
r. NJ. Haddon says: I enjoyed the
Scotch Singers immensely. 1t was one OF
finest musical entertainments I have ever
heard.
Mrs. A. B. Morse.
The Scotch Singers were simply delight
full. I enjoyed Miss Crawford's magni-
icient voice and the ~violienst especially
but was pleased with the whole program
me. Think entertainments OF this class
are very refiing and %elevating.
Mrs. W. d. Simpson says I think the
entertainment Monday was as good as
any I have ever heard in a Lyceum course,
1 enjoyed the whole program
Mrs. r. s. Link. The entertainment Mon
day night was delightful and If the num-
bers to follow as good, we, have something
for which to look forward.
Mrs. Joe Wilson says I went to the
High School Monday in fear and trembling
? ,r I have been slung on these things be
fore but I was pleasantly surprised and
came away highly pleased.
ENDORSEMENT,
The first entertainment in the Lyceum
course given by The Scotch Singers" were
Of q very high order. 1t was refined and
elevating, and if the other entertainments
10 this series measure up to the standard
Of the first, the people Of Abbeville will en-
JOY an opportunity that is usually not al
forded outside Of large cities.
Both for itself and for the object had In
view by the Civic League, I can heartily
commend this course to the public.

Elect Trustees.

The Laurensville Herald has the follow
ing to say anent the election OF school
trustees. The Herald's head Is level and
Laurens will soon come to see that the
sooner the matter Of electing trustees is
turned over to the people the sooner ten
thousand bubbles and quarrels and petty
rackets will be squelched and the sooner
will the grasshopper cease to be a burden
to the County Superintendent. Abbeville
County will find that many OF her troubles
will be stilled in the same way. The Her
aid says:
It appears that the appointin g Of schoo!
trustees by the County Superintendent OF
Education has not been giving the salts.
faction In Abbeville county that some OF
our friends in Laurens county have con.
tended, when once put | n operation, would
prove q boon for many OF our educational
ills.
The Herald has contended all along
that it was a mistake to resort to the inno-
walton appointing the school trustees in
stead Of electing them, and 1t wont be
long before the same demand that the
Abbeyille paper is making will be con-
tended for In Laurens county.

Anderson Ready to Cooperate With
Abbeville.

Anderson is ready to help build a trolly
to Abbeville from. that city. Every man
between Abbeville and Anderson Is ready
to do the same thing. The distance Is not
great. The power is near. The road bed
ideal. The county thru which the road
would pass is rich as Croesus.
Why not?
II the Dukes won't build why not build
one ourselves and own it ourselves? No
fairer city graces the map than does An
derson. To touch the Seaboard with a
trolley would help her out. To touch it
at Abbeyille would help Abbeville out.
What would it COST
How much could each city raise?
How much would the people on the line
thru the county give?
Is the, plan not feasible? If not why
.notp
Anderson, we believe, stands ready to
consider such a proposition. 1t Is worth
considering by both cities.

Poe in the Hall Of Fame

Edgar Allen Poe, our Southern Bard, has
been given a place in the Hall Of Fame.
The fact that he has been thus honored
thrilled no hearts In the South.
Whyp
Because he has since his untimely death
been enconsed securely In the Hall Of
Fame ofevery Southern heart, and II the
New York University has been dilatory in
recognizing his unquestioned, and unim-
p~eachable merit 1t Is no fault Of ours. The
New York University has done him no
honor in our eyes In placing him at this
late day where we have already placed
him since life time.
The New York University has a large
contract on It's hands In the management
Of Its Hall Of Fame, The Hall Is not we'll
named. There are just as many heroes
out of this Hall as there are In 1t and when
the last name shall have been added to
this Hall Of Fame there will be more he
roes out OF 1t than are in it.
It were better that the Hall had another
name, one more plant or plastic, a more
generic term.
No reflection OF course Is intended on
those whose names have been added to the
Hall. They could not help it. No doubt
had the individuals been consulted many
Of them would have refused to allow their
names to thus be placed on exhibit, for
the reason that they would prefer the
whole people to judge Of their life and con-
duct rather than that the New York Uni
versity should do 80.
But in or out our Edgar Is famous. His
imagination lowered high with any Other
that the States have produced. The
rythm, the "adelante" the cadence, the
high lights, the solemn sombre shades o.
his poesy are unsurpassed,

The object Of the exposition after all
is purely educational. It's object IS to
learn what good corn is and how to
grow it. Here will be assembled the
