zines will learn that large per cent. |
of the failures in the business world
is due to lack OF capital. Many a
seemingly thriving business has gone
to the wall from lack of capital to
tide over just such predicaments as
the southern farmers are facing. Just
as the crop prospects seem to be ia
vorable for better price now, just
SO many commercial houses some
times have bright prospects but go to
the wall from lack of money to car
ry on the business. What the farmers
will have to do is to stop placing so
much money In producing cotton and
provide some way of financing the
crop after 1t Is made. In this way
the crop will be reduced in size and
at the same time a good revenue will
be derived from the money invested
or course this only applies to those
farmers who are making money and
who have 1t to invest A plenty OF
such live In this county. The cotton
raising business in the south is over
balanced.

OUR CITY WATER.

Some we'll grounded kicks have been
recently registered against the re-
curing muddy condition of our city
water. Several times of late the wa
ter has been so muddy as to have
the appearance of just coming from an
overlooking creek An enquiry has
brought out the fact that the pump
and filtering station is out of alum
and that those who have in charge the
purchase of that material have refus-
ed TO bny any more. To those who
are not familiar with the methods OF
purifying the city water it can be stat
ed that the alum is the ingredient us
ed TO take the coloring out. What
other purpose it serves we do not
know, but it serves that purpose ana
some more ought to he purchased If
the lack of alum is not the cause of
The trouble something else is and
whatever 1t is should be given prompt
attention. Discolored and impure wa
ter should not and will not be tolerat-
ed.

OUR FARM PAPERS.

The agricultural papers are doing
n great work in raising the standard
of onr farmers and of increasing the
efficiency of our farm lands. We do
not take subscriptions for any of them,
but we do recommend that every farm
er in the county have one or more
come to his home. If the old folks
sometimes persist in following the
old methods Of agriculture. the young
er ones will read the valuable advice
of the trained experts and the future
prosperity Of the country will be more
certain. Today we have clipped sew
eral very valuable articles from one
of them and we believe that the ad-
vice contained in them Is valuable.
There are several very good agricul-
tural papers published in this sec
tion OF the country that are proving
very valuable and at the same time in
teresting.

Form Jones Club,

All the newspapers in the State that
have expressed an opinion think well
Of Judge Jones and endorse his can
didacy for governor. This is all they
can do and all that they should do in
the matter. The people of South
Carolina know Judge Jones and what
manner Of man he Is. The newspa-
pers have, from time to time, for full
twenty years made record Of his po-
litical activities and of his public and
official services. 1t is on this record
that he will be judged by the voters of
the State, not by what his supporters
may say in his praise. The people
need no advice as to how they should
tion the newspapers offer the better
Our policy Is to publish the facts and
leave 1t to the voters to make up their
minds how they shall vote. IL the ma
jority make a mistake and select the
wrong man for governor. or any other
office, the majority will suffer more
than the minority. While this Is cold
comfort, the minority have at least the
satisfaction Of feeling that they are
not rsponsible for the Ills they en-
dure along with the majority.
But this is depression from the
subject What we started out to say
Is: The newspapers should hands-of
In this campaign and eschew editor
ial encomiums Of favorite candidates
and forego denunciations Of those
who they oppose. Publish the
facts, as the campaign progresses, as
fully as possible, without bias or pre-
judice, and let 1t go at that.
In the meanwhile, II the political
editors must find an outlet for their en-
thusiasm for Judge Jones, let them
devote their time and their energies
that would otherwise be expended in
writing boosting editorials in organiz-
Ing Jones' clubs In every county and
at every precinct. A thorough or
ganization in every county will ac-
complish great deal more than the
most brilliantly conducted newspa-
per campaign. The way to beat
Blease Is not to write about him, but
to organic and meet organization with
organization. Blease has a machine
and 1t is an effective working organ
ization, and the way to beat 1t is for
Jones and his friends to create an
organization that will be more efrec-
tive -Watchman and southron.

Letter Go Gallagher!

We propose in this campaign to dis
cuss the case of Gaffney's municipal
government and to try to show that we
are paying too much for the quality
of the government now being admins
tered. The Ledger does not believe
the city is getting as much for the
money expended as 1t should. We be-
lieve the mayor is inefficient; we be-
lieve he is too highly prejudlced to
give justice to those he dislikes; we
know he does not protect taxpayers;
we know he has no consideration for
those who do not agree with him.
With our knowledge of the man we
do not believe he is the proper person
to preside over the affairs of the peo-
ple.-Gaffney Ledger.

GET INDEPENDENT.

The secret whicn the southern
farmers have not yet solved could be
solved by the method suggested by
Mr.. ". B. Dial at the farmers meet
ing Monday. He suggested that the
farmers come to the assistance of the
town and city people and place their
earnings in the banks and trust COM
panies SO that when situations like the
present arise the farmers will have
enongh money back OF them to hold
their cotton without having to call
on the bankers of the North. If the
farmers persist In placing all their
earnings in raising more cotton and
then do not provide for proper f.
of their undertakings they can
Nexpect nothing else but poor returns.

LET'S HAVE NO CONFLICTS.

The Yorkville Enquirer seems de-
termined to "rustle up" other can
didates in the coming race be-
tween Jones and Blease for COVER
nor. In it's last issue 1t suffered itself
to suggest that the prohibitionists
again get into the field and IL possi-
BILE induce Hon. G. c. Featherstone to
lead them.
Let 1t not be understood that we
would not like to see Mr.. Feather
stone occupy the governors chair nor
that we would not like to see every
dispensary and saloon In South Caro-
lima closed and the law enforced. AL
though Mr.. Featherstone has left our
midst The Advertiser still has the
kindly feeling for him that 1t has al
ways had. But we think the prohibi-
tionists would do themselves and pro
hibition-iocal optionists" an Injustice
II they should enter the field next
summer. We are firmly convinced
that right at this time the sentiment
of the majority of the people of South
Carolina Is not for statewide prohi-
bition and that further no manner of
campaign nor no manner Of a lead
er could turn enough votes to win the
election during the coming summer.
What prohibitionists will have to do
is to support at this election an hon
orable, upright and fearless gentle
man. as ts Ira b. Jones, and then.
In the coming years attempt to change
the sentiment OF the people OF South
Carolina against the sale Of whiskey
In any form. Until this Is done state
wide prohibition will only be dream.
We believe that Judge Jones real
ICES the peculiar position which he
now occupies and the peculiar cir
cumstances which will throw the sup
port of the larger element of law abid-
Ing citizens to his side. Knowing this.
we believe that he will not exert him
self to force his views on the whis-
Key question, nor will he endeayor to
break down the prohibition wall that
has already been erected. 1t is our
belief and hope that he will exert his
utmost to enforce the laws as they
now stand on the books and not to
attempt to change them.
This policy. we know, would be con-
sidered by some as a stand pat" or
even more as Stand still" policy
but 1t Is not 80. We will have to use
our best strength In upholding the
pride and honor Of our state rather
than to let everything go In vain
endeavor to have our way on the
whiskey question. We must let well
enough alone until we can get our peo-
pie back TO the old way OF thinking
"here honor was the first require
ment in it's governor.

Th following is from Manila,

interest here:
A courtship Of twenty years ended

o'clock last night when Miss Annie
Lee Lanford, Of Lanford, s. c., be-
came the bride Of Joseph B. Cooley, a
Manila resident who is one of the
best known American pioneers Of
the archipelago.
Rev. j. L. Mclaughlin, general agent
of the American Bible Society in the
Philippines, conducted the ceremony
which sets another landmark in this
childhood romance which began in the
sunny southland. Major Alexander
j. Robertson was best man, Miss Fran
ces Cooley, sister Of the bridegroom
and playmate of the bride was maid
Of honor. and the bride was given
away by Judge Louis NJ. Southworth,
formerly OF Mississippi. Only a few
intimate friends were in attendance.

Mrs. Cooley will be at home to their
friends at No. 622 Gale Real, Malate.
