MILLS SHUT DOWN.
Two in Anderson County Stopped
Because Water Is Low.

Two of the largest cotton mills in
upper Carolina, the Anderson and
Orr plants of Anderson, were forced
20 shut down Thursday afternoon be-
cause of the very low stage OF water
IN the river there. Reports from sew
,ral parts Of the Piedmont district OF
South Carolina indicate that the
brought and resulting fall off in the
water stage in several rivers and
streams are forcing manufacturers
20 run on half time. Power plants
IN the Savannah and Tugaloo rivers
are now producing only 1000 horse
,ower-just half the normal, and
unless conditions improve it is said
they may close altogether.
Greeks and wells in the vicinity
Of Anderson have failed so that the
authorities are now facing the PROD
lem of keeping up the drinking wat
er supply

WHY WINDS BLOW.
Why There is Such a Thing as Aic
Currents, or Wind.

Astronom .rs and other scientists
have not yet succeeded in ascertain
ing just how far the atmosphere Of
our earth extends above the land and
the sea on which it rests, but some
of them hope to some day soon. The
Astronomer Royal of England, who
has completed his report for the tis-
cal year ending May 10, tells some
very interesting things about the va
rying densities, attitudes and tempet-
atures of the air cushions, air p ch-
cts and air currents surrounding the
earth.
In reference to air currents and
the reasons why the wind blows, the
report explains that air consists OF
gaseous particles, all trying to get
away from one another, a1a ttat,
compelled to come closer together by
contraction, or forced to t!J further
apart by expansion. A quart bottle,
for example holds % grains Of air at
the temperature Of &c degrees. Il
the bottle be cooled by surrounding
it with ice, the air inside contracts.
When this occurs, more al. rushes
in through the bottles neck. The
urart of air now weighs more than
% grains. If the bottle be heated,
the air expands; its tiny particles ily
further asunder, and many CT them
escape from the bottle altogether.
There is still a quart Of air, but 1t
weighs much less than the original
90 grains.
Now. consider the earth and the
sra under the influence o. varying
degrees of the suns hea-. Where
the heat is greatest, the air Is made
lighter and expands. Where the
heat is least, the air is uoeSpandec
and heavy. Poth hot and cold air
have weight, but the colI. being
heavier, Is drawn more effectively to
the ground. IN doing so 1t drives
1he lighter air up out OF It's way,
lust as a lump of lead dropped Into
a pail of water forces some OF the
water upward. If the earth were
equally warm at every part, and con-
tinued at a constant temoeratule,
wind could not exist It blows be-
cause of heat and gravitation. IN
other words air moves from the place
where it's weight or pressure is most
toward the place where its pressure
or weight is least.

VISIT WOODROW WILSON
IMPORTANT POLITICAL DISCUS
SIONS WITH HIM.
Upon the Adjournment OF Congress
Democratic Statesmen Are Jour.
neying Toward jersey Coast.

Has another Woodrow Wilson
boom for the presidential nomination
started in earnest? With the ending
Of the extra session Of congress there
has been a long procession Of Dem
ocratic statesmen headed northward
from Washington in the direction Of
the Jersey coast.
Even the uninitiated have marked
the fight and have wondered what
it meant. Wondering, they have
come to the CONFUSION that these mi
gratory folk have gone up to the
coast for the purpose ct resting at
the seashore and getting Whit Of
the sea breezes, with now and then
swim in the old ocean. But this
is not the case. Democratic senators
and members Of the house like the
Jersey coast Just as other folks do,
but they are not headed there at
this season of the year just for the
sake of enjoying the delights OF the
seaside. Careful scouting will re-
veal that a lot of these Democratic
congressional folk are headed for
Spring Lake, N. j., which Is much
frequented by Gov. woodrow Wilson.
Gov. Wilson is making point Of
spending a good deal OF time each
week at the seashore, and he will
meet the Democratic members Of con-
gress who are stopping along the Jer-
sey coast to rest in the course Of their
homeward fight from Washington.
1t is hardly necessary to say that
some large politics will be played In
these meetings.
It will, of course, be presidential
politics. Senator Stone, of Missouri,
is one of the big Democrats who IS
reported to be going home by way
of the Jersey coast. But Senator
Stone is not an aTowed Wilson sup
porter. With Gov. Folk and Champ
Clark in the the race he can not
well be that. But Gov. Wilson knows
that "Gumshoe BilI' is one Of the
ablest and most astute politicians In
the Democratic party.
1t is significant of the strength OF
the Wilson presidential boom that
the New Jersey Governor Is Turing
to the Jersey coast some OF the
strongest and ablest politicians on
the Democratic side Of the house and
Senate. Other Democratic politicians
are finding their way there.
It is we'll known there that the ut
most effort is being put forward to
lay the foundations Of the Wilson
boom in such a manner that 1t will
be hard work to upset 1t when the
storms of the coming national con-
vention period begin to break. This
is not all.
The third meeting Of the house Of
governors, which will bring together
governors from all over the country.
will be held at Spring Lake Septen-
Der l6. Gov. Wilson will meet the
Governors, put in much time with
them and become better acquainted
with them. Under cover Of discus
sions of the twilight zone between
federal and State power, there doubt
less will be consideration OF the 1912
campaign.

PROUD OF DEMOCRATS
SENATOR T1LLMAN PRAISES THE
WORK OF PARTY.
They Have Not Made Mistakes and
Have Fine Chance to Elect Next
President.

"I am proud Of the way the Demo
Gratis conducted themselves, said
Senator Benjamin Ryan Tillman at
Columbia Wednesday morning in
speaking OF the session of Congress
just ended. Senator Tillman came to
Columbia from Trenton, and imme-
diately boarded another train for
Liberty Hill in Kershaw county,
where he goes to spend few days
with Railroad Commissioner John G..
Richards. The Senator was accom-
panied by Mrs. Tillman.
When asked about the the Demo-
Gratis at this session, the Senator said
that he was proud Of his colleagues
and the way in which they had con-
Quoted themselves, not having made
any serious mistakes. The Senator
had not been present at this session
owing to the condition of his health,
he having been advised to remain at
home in Trenton on the farm. He
was paired on all matters, and gave
his colleagues notice that If he were
needed at any time they should wire
foi him.
Senator Tillman was asked If the
situation as to the Democratic nomi-
nee possibility for President had clar-
ified any, or if there we're stiu that
"ebarasment des riches,' about
which he spoke the last time he stop
ped over in Columbia. The Senator
simply replied: "No, cannot say
that the situation Is any clearer
row." The Senator says that the
Democrats have such good material
from which to select Democratic
nominee for the Presidency. The
Senator has made known his belief
that the Democrats have a fine
chance at the coming election.
In view of the visit Of the old Vet
erans to this city, Senator Tillman
Was asked whether he thought the
South should accept at the hands Of
Congress a monument to the Confed-
crate navy, a bill for which has been
introduced into Congress-. There Is
in the Vicksburg National Park q
monument to the Federal navy. This
monument will soon be dedicated.
The dedication has been postponed
owing to the Introduction Of the bill
as to a Confederate navy monument.
Some of the Southern Senators and
Representative objected to the use
Of Federal funds fer Confederate
moruwent.
On this point Senator Tillman said,
eyes, I would favor the erection Of
such monument. cannot see why
we should not take anything from
the Congress that will show that the
North is willing to do little justice
to the South. T cannot see why a
monument should be be refused when
We have accepted the graVestones.
In the park where the monument
would oe erected are markers" on
the graves Of Confederates showing
the rank Of the deceased soldiers. It
was to these gravestones that Sen
ator Tillman referred.
Of State politics Senator Tillman
did not talk, for there was little op-
portunity. He and DR.. Babcock
spoke for a few moments Of the work
done by Commissioner Watson in his
crusade against spoiled grain, espec-
tally corn meal, and the Senator ap-
pcared to be very much interested.
DR.. Babcock said that much Of the
r,eal was in very bad shape. This
led to a brief discussion OF pellagra
ard Of it's relation to the spoiled
grain.

A FEW PIPE THOUGHTS

Opportunity knocks at your door not only once but many times; but you needn't think that Opportunity is going to be a locksmith, buy a skeleton key, unlock your door, come up stairs and pull you out of bed, dress you, wash your face, carry you down stairs and put you in 50 H. P. automobile just in order to start you on your way.
 The money that you have got makes little difference in the world; providing, of course, your wife inner tied plenty of 1t.
 The happiest man we ever saw was an old soldier with a wooden leg who was seated with his grandson on the top row of the narrow board seats at a circus, and it wasn't a whale of a circus, either.
 Let the other fellow do the wor- rying. Think good thoughts, never gossip about your neighbors, do the best you can financially. take plenty of exercise, now your own lawn, get up at cock-crow, go to bed with the chickens and eat plenty of spinach, and you will live to be 115 years of age. providing you don't get run ov, CT by an automobile. fall of a ten. story building, eat toadstools by mis- take, monkey around a pest house or die a natural death.

can minority will be able to lay no claim to credit and by no possibility can blame be shifted upon.
 And there is much to be done un- der the constitution and we believe the democratic members will dis charge the duties which the people put upon them last Tuesday in a wise and conscientious way.
 Most of the time in the past deni- ocrats have been in control of Ari- zona territorial legislature and they exerted that control so that scandals. which So frequently attach to state legislatures, were unheard of. The territory on the contrary was given reputation for soundness of senti- ment.
 Another thing, though this is a somewhat sordid consideration. hangs on the work of the legislature. That is further democratic success. 4 failure by the legislature would al- most certainly be iatal to the party in the next state election which will take place a little less than elSyen months hence.
