BLEASE HEEDS PROTEST
OF VETERANS OF 1876
Will Ask Cancellation of Text Book
COntract-One of Series of
Readers.

Columbia, Aug. 24.-Gov. Blease said
this afternoon that at the meeting here
August %, OF the State board of edu-
cation, of which he is ex-ofdcio chair
man, he would ask the board, in view
of action yesterday by the South Caro-
lima Division, United Confederate Vet
erans, to cancel the five-year contract
recently made for Heart of Oak"
readers, to be used in the public
schools of the State The veterans al
lege that one reader, at least, of the
Heart of Oak" series contains Ian
guage which refers Improperly 10 the
cause for which they fought.
Governor Didn't Know.
Gov. Blease said he had no idea
such statement as that printed was
in any of the books adopted, this ref
erence being to a selection in one of
the Heart of Oak readers which is
said to refer to the Confederates at
Shiloh as "a dark, rebellious host"
Governor Blease, further stated that
if he had known such "libel upon
the South was printed in any book
adopted by the board he would then
and there have registered his protest.
He said that his attitude was well
known in this matter by his stand in
the Waddy Thompson history contro-
versy. The governor also stated that
he was not present when the readers
were adopted by the State board Of
education, being called out of the city
at the time
II will bring the matter to the at
tention of the board at it's meeting
here On the 2Sth," concluded the gov
ernor, "and I will use my influence to
the end that the contract with the firm
be cancelled"
It was stated that the meeting on
the 28th is called to consider protests
from publishing companies, and to
hear appeals from the several counties
as to school matters. The governor
has formal protest from one of the
publishing houses as to the interpreta-
ton Of the contract with the State.
Veterans Protest.
The following is the protest regis
tered by the resolution of the old SOL
diers:
whereas, the Heart of Oak readers,
recently adopted for use in the public
schools of this State, contain On page
225 of the fourth book selection that
refers to the Southern army at Shiloh
as "a dark, rebellious' host and,
Whereas, we, the United Confed-
crate Veterans of South Carolina thus
assembled, believe that the principles
and truths for which We fought are
just as vital today as they were when
we left our homes and families to de-
fend them with our lives and fortunes,
and,
whereas, we further believe that
the books taught in our free school
system, where alone our children have
an opportunity to learn these truths,
should be free from any aspersions or
Misrepresentation, either by direction
or indirection;
Therefore, be it resolved, That we
most seriously protest against the use
of the above named readers and re-
spectfully but earnestly call upon the
State board of education to take i'm
mediatet steps whereby readers or any
other books containing any or all such
expressions rejecting upon the truth
of the cause for which we fought may
not be forced upon. our children" .

MERIT ESSENTIAL TO SUCCESS
Advertising Can Never Build Lasting
Results Unless Product Is
Worthy.

Points in advertising are thus
summed up by the Chicago CONNER
cial Journal: First, the advertise
ment must attract the eye; second,
present convincing argument; third,
reach buyers Of product offered;
fourth be read at the right time;
fifth, be continuous for a long period
immediate results being rare" One
point omitted is that merit must be
the basis to secure lasting success.
Inferior articles may be pushed to a
large scale, but quickly become dis
credited when buyers are disappoint-
ed. Many advertisers overlook all
these factors. They fail to arrest the
attention and so to prove the need
of what they have for sale, and they
expect one charge or an occasional
careless shot will bring down the
game. Some stop advertising when
their business is dull, though energet-
ic men are apt to feel that is the time
to make greater effort. Periods Of de-
preston also call for closer economy
in production and those who look
ahead are open to arguments on the
advantages Of change of machinery
and material. They have time then
to think about it. In printing, the
dull season for some houses is the
busy season for others. 1t is rarely
that any of them close entirely for a
single day, except Sunday. The ad-
vertiser who omits any issue of the
right medium takes chances of miss
ing sales he would otherwise have
made.

The new YEAR.

Christmas, the religious holiday of
the whole world, has come and pass
ed the bells will soon ring in the new
year. 1911, and the holidays, with all
their galety and gladness, land gloom
and lonliness and sadness as we'll
will be but memory.
We can look back to them but can
not live those days over again. They
are gone with the things that are
gone, and when we remember how
poorly we spent them, how we re-
proach ourselves. Hearts may be
aching today because of our unchari-
tabloness-t they may go on through
the years, and try as we may we can
not drive the pain away. Souls are
around us on the verge of despair
and yet we took not step to hold
them back. Mortals were tempted
and tried, almost beyond endurance,
and we spoke no word of encourage
ment or sympathy. The friendliness
and the poor and the sick and the
solitary we have neglected and pass
ed by. Oh! how cold and selfish and
uncharitable we. nearly all of us, have
been! And thus the New Year comes
to us freighted with memories.
For the good that we have done
there is so much of genuine satisfac-
ton, and for our uncharitableness so
much of regret, that it ought to be
lesson enough without this sermon
cite of mine.

His Popularity Unaffected

Clark Co. Tribune.
A significant fact in connection
with Vardaman and his senatorial
aspirations is, that there are more
than three fourths o. the papers oil
the state for him, not one of which
was lost by the Dulaney trial and ac-
quital, it seeming to cause them to
be more pronounced for him.
1t is reasonable to suppose that
these papers speak the sentiments
of the people of their respective lc-
calities and this being true. Is per
cent of the voters of the state are
for him which will make his election
sure.
Hurrah for Vardaman (who) W Il be
heard from to the glory of the people
and triumph OF right in the cam
paign and election ahead.

Increase In 0Ieomargarine Consumption

Bulletin to Herald from National Dairy Unionl
The production of oleomargarine
increased from 92, 1872, 1915 pounds in
1909 to 139. 755, 1926 pounds in 1910.
OF this latter amount 3,491, 1913 lbs
were taxed at ten cents per pound.
1t will thus be noted that over 81 per
cent of all the oleomargarine manu-
featured during the last fiscal year
was taxed at only fourth cent
per pound. These figures are issued
by the federal internal revenue CON-
missioner and are authentic, They
clearly demonstrate the fact that the
oleomargarine business is rot work.
ing under such a burden as many
people think. People have heard so
much about the ten cent tax on ar
officially colored oleomargarine that
they have naturally associated this
tax with all oleomargarine.
As matter of fact less than three
per cent of the total product, is tax
ed al ten cents per pound. the re-
mainder being taxed only a quarter
OF cent per pound.
An effort will probably be made by
the oleomargarine manufacturers to
secure the repeal of the ten cent tax
at the present session of Congress.
These statistics indicate that the
claims advanced at the present law
is burden upon the poor man be-
cause it taxes his butter ten cents
per pound is not founded upon fact

Not A Coat Tail SwInger.
A berdeen Examiner.

Aberdeen Examiner.
Earl Brewer in a formal announce
ment OF his candidacy for governor,
and his readiness to meet all corners
seeking the same goal, gives it to be
distinctly understood, once for all,
that he is making his own race and
battle, and will not under any cir
cumstances take part, in any way,
shape or form, in the political af-
fairs or fortune of any other candi-
date for any other Office. That is
honest, fair, square and manly, and
strikes responsive chord in every
patriotic heart, for if there is any
thing that a Mississippian can't a
bide, it is the little candidate w.o
swings on to tile coat tail of the big
one, in hope that he will pull him
through, regardless of merit. and the
big candidate with a lot Of little fell
lows in tow.
