FOR GOOD ROADS RIDEI
Bill Providing for Federal Aid
Gaining Strength.

Washington, Aug. 5.-As in the
of the good roads rider TO the post
office appropriation bill are develop
ing much more strength on the floor
than they could develop in commit
tee, where the verdict in each case
was given in favor of a commission
to investigate the feasibility of feder-
al aid for roads.
The advocates of the consolidated
good roads bill, which provides for
payment of a certain amount by the
federal government to each State for
the use of the roads in carrying mail,
in proportion to the mileage and con-
dition Of such roads, won their fight
in the house. They are making
similarly strong effort to override the
committee in the senate, where rep

been spending a good deal of time
recently in conversation with sena-
tors.
Senator E. D. Smith, of South Car
olina, to-day spoke very effectively il
favor of the bill. He was questioned
from an opposite point of view
by Senators Gallinger, Pomerene,
Bourne and Bristow, and was back
ed up by Senators Newlands and
Reed. The outlook is that there will
be a close vote on the measure, with
some chance of it's passage.
Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia, is
expected to offer an amendment to-
morrow to make such money given
in aid of such post roads shall be
properly distributed among the coun-
ties by the States after they get it.

Shall We Have Conservative Gov

Shall We Have Conservative Gov
ernment?
Is anarchism the trend of the rul-
ing power in South Carolina to-day?
1t appears that this might be so. The
issue is before the people now. Shall
we have conservative government, or
shall our ruling power drift into an
oligarichal form, or worse, anarch-
ism? Shall the "dove," the symbol
of peace and righteous government,
cease to flutter it's wings in heyday
and eXultant Joy over our fair State,
a warning of the approach of the
demon, who crushed with death
blow, the fair Goddess of Liberty?"
our freedom purchased at the price
of human blood? Are the fair sons
of Carolina awakened to the course
into which we are drifting? Are
we as intelligent people losing our
pride for the liberty, only conceived
within the human heart as an instinct
to rule themselves with equity and
truth? Is that extended "self love"
another name for patriotism which
was so radiantly kindled with out
forefathers at the first incentive, now
Pickering?
With the race for the man who is
to occupy the executive chair, we
have Jones for conservative govern
ment and Blease for anarchism. What
shall be our decision? The voice of
the people will declare on the 9th
day of August.
BY the term anarchism, we under
stand that the ruling power becomes
congested and is nullified, that our
liberties are unrestrained at the det-
riment of common society, and the
protection of the whole, that gov
ernment as an organized function
ceases to perform it's offices. Anarch-
ism, whether organized, is the dead
liest foe to government. What is
the difference in organized anarchy,
and unorganiezd anarchy? Let us
see. we have unorganized anarchy
with the Blease adm dministration in it's
purest form. 1t is new function
displayed in our government of
which our people are unacquainted
with CD Organized anarchy is
where individuals secretaly cooper
ate in effort to exterminate the con-
trolling factor in civilized govern
ments. With the unorganized kind
government is sacrificed by the most
unscrupulous demagogism as repre-
sented in the Blease administration.
Does it not appear to the intelli-
gent people of South Carolina that
Biease only caters for the vote of the
people as a power to aid him in his
vainglorious undertaking? Is not
this evidenced by his very sayings
that Il will stand by my friends
Where can we sec through this at
titude an equable administration for
the people as whole? Should
Blease continue at the helm of our
government? And how are these ia
vors purchased for Blease? By his
promises that if the friends stick up
to him he will render unto them ia
vcrs at his own hands. That he will
run the executive, the legislative and
the judiciary functions of our gov
ernment himself. He instigates
crime and promises speedy pardon.
On! men of Carolina wherein is our
security? The very functions of our
government is contaminated with the
most foul stagnation.

Some Blease newspapers are max
ing a mighty howl about the state
ment of Grace being so dirty, saying
that it is unfit to publish. Well, it
is not near so bad as the language
used by Blease in his campaign
speeches. Everything that Blease
says is all right with these newspa-
pers, but when somebody gives the
governor some pretty hot shot it's
just awful and makes them so asham:-
ed for such language to be printed.

There is so much political matter
being circulated these days that it
is hard to deci }e what to publish, as
the columns of weekly newspaper
will not begin to hold one-tenth of
it. However, we are doing our duty
by our State as we see it, and we
have no quarrel with those who diff
fer from US. Vote as you think best,
but be sure you vote for true, pure,
clean men for all Offices, that right
eousness, truth, purity and justice
may prevail throughout South Caro-
lima.

What is the use for Chief Consta-
Bile Stothart to deny in letter to the
governor, that he received graft. He
had an opportunity to testify under
oath, and he refused to say anything,
or the ground that it might incrimin-
ate him.

We would like to hear from our
legislative candidates as to their
views on the question of abolishing
the fees system for paying county
officers and putting every official on
a straight salary. No matter if you
are opposed to it or favor it, let's
have it discussed, for by discussion
will we be enlightened.

In the account of the bowling down
of Grace at Spartanburg the state
ment is made that mill operatives
did the bowling. We did not credit
it, and it has since been denied. Mill
operatives are not the only people
who have lungs, and no doubt those
who did the bowling laid it on the
mill people.

company with some Of its present
members when they were only 8 years

One Of the brightest bits In the bill

DRY FARMERS
|. Meet AT MANDAN
SHAW, WILLARD, CHAMBERLAIN
AND PROFESSOR WALDRoN
AMONG THE SPEAKERS.

Mandan, N. d, March 16.-The Nor
ton County Dry Farming congress met
here this week. Many of the best
farmers Of the county were in attend
ance and much OF the time was taken
up with discussions.
The programme included some Of
the best dry farming experts in the
northwest Prof. Thomas Shaw
called attention to the fact that dry
farming cannot be carried out in n
year. The preparations for the crop
must begin the year before. He re-
commended that a part of the farm be
summer falIowed and q part OF 1t put
into a cultivated crop, so the grain
crop will ZONE after a cultivated crop
or on summer fallow.
ID. e. Willard, who had made a geo.
logical survey of the county, called
attention to the fact that the soils con-
tain a large percentage of silt, which
gives them good -holding ca
pacity. He urged that the farmers
study the nature OF the soil and
and handle it according to its fineness
or c-oarseness.
A. E. Chamberlain discussed the
principles according to which water
moves in the soil. He demonstrated
that the moisture moves freely through
a compact soil, but very slowly
through a loose soil. He advocated
deep blowing and the making of a
good seed bed. He advised discing
before the play in Gfder to make this
seed bed. The point he emphasized
was to have the soil In a condition so
that the plant roots come in contact
with fine soil that is well supplied
with moisture.
l.. r.. Waldron, in talking alfalfa,
classed it as the best forage plant that
this section has and that it ought to
be grown much more extensively than
it is at present. He reported that he
had had good results with growing II
in rows and that sown in this way il
will resist dry weather better than
hen grown in drills. He reported
good results with the growing Of sweet
clover.
The Importance Of fertility I'm dry
farming was discussed by ". c. Pal
mer. who called attention to the re-
suits u by DR.. Widsoe of Utah
who has found that it requires less
moisture to procure a crop on well
handled soil than on one that is poorly
handled. For instance, corn grown
on summer fallow or On land thai
had been manured made more growth

Joyed an entire years stay in Chicago.

The Saturday Evening Post and other
magazines, and in putting Wallingford
on the stage Conan accomplished not
only the most brilliant work of his ca
reer. but produced the best American
comedy in the history Of the theatre.
