P. D. Norton, with a lead of Ell
votes over Frank Henry, and with
several counties yet to be heard from
that doubtless will give the Adams
county man majorities, appears to
have been nominated for secretary of
state.
E. ]. Taylor now has a lead of 1868

eral of the missing counties, and for
that reason it has been difficult task
to say just who has been the winner
for these two places on which the con-
test was so very close.
Secretary Of State.
Norton appears to be making slow
gains on Henry for this place. The
counties still to be herd from are
largely in the southwestern district
where Norton resides and where he
has been running very strong, so it
Will be hard for Henry to do much in
that section. LaMoure, strictly insur-
gent county is also to report yet, and
it will give Norton majority.
The reports up to date are as fol-
lows:

State Superintendent.
The vote for superintendent of
schools, with LaMour, Sheridan, Mer-
Ger, Oliver, Hettinger, Towner, Bow
man and Kidder counties still to hear
from, is 1929 for Taylor and 22,1e1
for Woods. In the counties that are
still to come, Taylor is believed to
stand a good chance in majorities.
LaMoure county has a majority vote
for him but figures have not been oh.
ta1nable, the returns being sealed and
they will not be opened until the cam

counties are in the state where Tay.
lor has been making strong gains, and
he probably will maintain that record.

Doubtless there was a time in
South Carolina when the wisdom of
co-educational institutions was ques'
toned but the success that Col. &.
N. X. Bailey has achieved in con-
Quoting the South Carolina Co
Educational Institute Las dissipated
all doubt, especially in the minds
of those who know of the character
and quality of the work done at
this institution. Having established
the South Carolina Co-Educational
Institute at Williston on a small
scale eighteen years ago, possibly
as an experiment, Col. Bailey has
by dint of persistent efforts and
through the exercise of splendid
business acumen, steadily enlarged
the Institution, and along with its
almost phenomenal growth has come
increased influence, power and pres
tige. To-day this splendid institu-
ton occupies a high place among
the institutions Of learning in South.

ton and applause of the throng of
spectators. The very excellent man
ner in which both companies drilled
caused the honors to be almost even
ly divided but victory was awarded
to Company A by the judges.
The individual contest for the
gold medal given annually by Mr..
Orlando Sheppard was held on the
public square Friday afternoon. The
battalion was formed in front of the
court house, and SO heartily did the
cadets enter into the spirit of the
occasion hal the contest was ex-
ceedingly interesting from the out
set. Soon the ranks grew thinner
and thinner, the judges ordering
those who had made an error to
drop out. AS the number of con-
testants decreased the interest and
excitement became more and more
intense. The great throng Of spec
tators drew nearer and nearer and
with bated breath awaited the out
come. The ranks gradually diminish
ed until all were ordered to the rear
except the three best drilled cadets,
and they executed the commands
that came quick and fast with a pre-
cision that would have done credit
to West Pointers. 1t seemed that
none of them would make an error.
Finally, two were ruled out by the
Judges, leaving Cadet Morris White,
of Company B, standing alone-the
victor.
The handsome medal was pre-
scented to Cadet White in the col
lege auditorium Friday evening in
a most graceful and fitting manner
by Hon. B. E. Nicholson, just be-
fore the opening of the exercises by

GOOD ROADS.
a Strong Appeal to the Citiz ems
of Shaw and Adjoining
Townships For Better
Roads.

1t is not with a sense of pleasure
that l am appealing to the citizens
of Shaw and Wise Townships, bus
a sense of duty I owe, and every one
of us owe to our country and to our
selves to at once come together and
remedy this awful situation that
now confronts us-namely: Bad
Roads"
w have beautiful, level, and fer
tile lands that reach for miles out,
and all the bad roads that traverse
these lands of ours are not only a
reflection upon these lands, but
upon u citizens who own them.
We have heavy sand beds all sum-
mer to contend with, none of the
roads scarcely wide enough for two
vehicles. When we havn't heavy
sand to contend with, there are
holes, bumps and disgraceful
bridges etc., etc.
AS. the old saying goes we have
followed the same old rut for years"
and for the sake of IL community
and the young generation lets make
a change. The law says that the
computation tax shall be used from
whence it comes. Every dollar that
Shaw Township paidin the coun-
ty last year and this has certainly
gone elsewhere, for to my certain
knowledge not a particle of work
has been done since January 1909
on any of our roads around Tren-
ton. There are plantations owned
by some of our citizens through
which not more than four or five
hundred yards of public road passes,
and possibly the computation tax
paid by these land owners and their
tenants amount to twenty or twenty
five dollars for each plantation. and
at times not a cent,of this amount
is put back on these certain roads.
Good roads are the slogan of the
south nowadays.
Lets come together and formulate
a better plan by which we may i'm
prove them. We want u roads
graded, clayed, widened and smooth
ed. Petition to our Legislature to
aid us in this awful situation. lf
our Legislators cant, or will not
help us let our County issue a GER
tain amount of bonds for the road
work of our grand old county.
We want better roads, We are
willing to pay for them, and we
must have them.

of the wholesome influence that the

Unlike many other colleges, so
closely associated are the students.
officers and faculty that the S.
C. G. 1. is more like a large Chris
tian family than, a boarding school,
and for this reason there has con-
stantly emanated from the instisu-
ton a moral influence that has made
its impress upon the life of the COM
munity. The wholesome character
of the inner life Of the institution is
also reflected by the splendid de-
pertinent of the young ladies and
young gentlemen, both on and off
the campus. In some towns and cit
les in which colleges are located the
students make their presence felt by
their questionable conduct. Such is
not the case with the S. G. G. L.
student body. On the contrary,
words of commentator of Col. Bal
ley for having the students under
such excellent control. as well as
praise for the students themselves,
are frequently heard.
The institution has made its i'm

moral force, important as that may
be, but through it the intellectual

quickened and the musical tastes OF

In order to encourage and stimu-

grow. more wheat and oats, The
Advertiser offered prizes in gold
coin early last fall to be awarded
those producing the largest yield
upon one acre. While only a few
farmers have actually. enrolled their
names as contestants, it is believed
that the agitation of this very i'm

of The Advertiser from time to

large increase in the acreage. of
wheat and oats that was sown
throughout the county. The follow
