that one Fen Watts had been guard
housed in spartanburg. ''That must
be the man I have, been looking for

from a distance. Ben reported: x

Sheriff Buford. He went to Spartan
burg Tuesday, accompanied by Mr.
John Livingston to identify the negro.
Mr.. Livingston knew Watts, the sher-
if didn't know him. 1t turned out to
be the Ben Watts wanted here on va

the governor for dismissal, as the case
may be-"
A more strict observance Of this
law would bring about much more
healthy condition of affairs in the va
rious counties. It is poor business
to put the levy below the necessary
expenses, as is sometimes done, so
that a delegation may go before their
people and point to record of low
taxes. When a county incurs obllga-
tions they must be met sooner or lat
er, and the affairs of a county ought
to be run on business basis. 1t is
much cheaper in the long run, be-
cause when money is spent the public
have to pay it in taxes sooner or lat
er. If State taxes are too high or
county taxes are too high it does no
good to cut down the levy unless ex-
penditures are reduced. The only way
to lessen taxes is to lessen expendi-
lures. And yet sometimes this simple
self-evident fact seems not to be real

the title role in the annual Greek
play which is given at Randolph-Ma-

FARMING WITH GOATS.

The world moves, and every day
some record is smashed. The latest
step in farming operations is report
ed in story which comes from Rog-
ers, Ark. According to a story from
the Arkansas town." says the Augusta
Chronicle, "a 15-year-old country boy
with quite a lot of ambition and an
acre or so of rock-streWn ground had
only billy goat with which to carry
on his farming operations. He hauled
the fertilizer. for his field in a pack
ing-box cart, plowed the ground with
a. crude small iron plow, and worked
his crop with his billy goat. The re-
suit was a yield Of fifty bushels from
an acre of rock ground, which is be-
ing cited as one of the finest instances
the agricultural department has with
which to demonstrate the possibilities
of shallow cultivation after careful
preparation.
Why is a billy goat, is a question
which has long agitared the minds O.
this Arkansas lad answers the ques
ton. All honor to the goat-when ht
lives on the farm and works a crop.

BUSINESS BASIS FOR COUNTIES.

Without passing upon the legality
of the appointments, Judge Watts at
Greenwood this week refused to man
damus the foreman of the grand jury
and the county commissioners to sign
the pay certificates of the recently ap-
pointed rural policemen for Green
wood county, on the ground that an
affidavit was presented from the coun-
ty treasurer to the effect that there
were no funds in the treasury for the
payment Of these officers. Section 500
of the civil code of 1902 reads:
The county supervisor shall draw
orders on the county treasurer, under
the seal Of the board, countersigned
by the secretary or clerk Of the board,
for all accounts against the county
which they have allowed, but he shall
draw no orders until after the month
ly report of the treasure! has been
received by them, and unless he has
reported the funds in the treasury to
pay the same; and the county super
visor shall inform the county treasur-
er of the orders drawn, in whose fav-
or, the amount, and the order in
which they are drawn.
1T shall not be- lawful for any
county treasurer to pay on order of
the board Of county supervisors un-
less drawn in conformity with
this section: and it is made

IF the enormous sum of from a
quarter of million to three hundred
Thousand dollars which Clemson COL
lege will receive from the fertilizer
tax this year could be turned into the
State treasury, and only so much as
Clemson needs appropriated to that
institution, the balance would come
in mighty nicely in helping to meet
the appropriation to the other State
institutions.

Yesterday and was told that his trou-
bic might be cured by course OF

Church of the Redeemer.

(Rev. Edw. Fulenwider, Pastor).
Nothing preventing the following
program of divine services will be OBJ
served at the Lutheran Church Of the
Redeemer next Sunday:
II a. m.-The regular morning SER
vice. The pastor will preach on the
subject: "Called Back to the Old
Scenes and a Larger Vision." The
words of the text are: "But after I
am risen again, I will go before you
into Galilee''- Matt. 26:32. Also: $50
tell my brethren that they go into
Galilee, and there shall they see me"
Matt. 28:1O. In these last words is
the message of the risen Christ to
men who had lost their faith in con-
tact with men and affairs in Jerusal-
EN-. Down in the worldly capitol OF
their country they had lost the Christ
of Galilee and their youth, but back in
Galilee after the experience in Jeru-
salem they found a greater Savior
than they had lost Many practical
lessons that need to be considered
Just at this time will be presented.
The congregation has a splendid
choir, and there will pe good music.
4 D. m.-The Sunday school will
hold it's regular session. There are
classes and teachers for all ages.
The public is cordially invited to
all services.

Baltimoreans do not realize the great

con this trip I have had very un-
usual experience. Four years ago 7
came here with my law partner, F. H.
Dominick. We stopped at the Hotel
Rennert. Sunday when I, with my
brother, Harry H. Blease, of S3aun-
ton, Va, who accompanied me, came
to the Rennert and registered we
were assigned to the same room I had
on the previous visit. But that has
little to do with what I think of yo1r
city. One thing that has most it,
pressed me is the great and beauti-
full building which the Fidelity COM
pany has erected. Former Governor
Warfeld, it's president called upon Lac
on his recent trip through the South,
and was thrown with him at the
Southern Commercial congress in At
lanta.'
When asked what the thought Of the
outlook for a Democratic president
in 1912 he said:
eff the present Democratic house,
which has started out we'll, makes no
big mistakes, and the convention,
which I would like to see held in this
city, nominates Judson Harmon for
president and Woodrow Wilson for
vice president, there will be a walk
over for the Democrats"
South Carolina, he said, was strong
ly in favor of the direct election of
senators. The candidates for all Of
fees in the State are nominated in a
primary and Governor Blease said
that he would like to see the candi-
dates for the presidency nominated by
a countrywide primary.
Enthused by the prosperous out
look for the South, he ecnoed the opln-
ion recently expressed by Champ
Clark, go South, young mani"
eve will welco1 ne men in all walks
of life," said the governor, "if they
wish to 5Rstle. We need men. When
the Panhma Canal is completed the
South will outstrip the North and
East in manufactures as well as in
the production of raw products. We
have the raw materials and our prox-
unity to the markets which will be
opened up then will give us an ad-
vantage which will not be overcome
by any other section"
Feeling Much Improved.

Cole L. Blease, of South Carolina,

renowned stomach specialist. Gov
ernor Blease is suffering with acute
indigestion, out an operation, for
which he came, was not deemed nee
essary and a course of treatment pre-
scribed by DR.. FriedenWald, will
probably dissipate all trouble. The
governor was feeling much improved
and relieved when he left.
While in Washington Governor
Blease will probably look after 7,:e
