Florence County Campaign.

The Florence county campaign
opened up at Salem, in the extreme
southeastern section of the county,
and ended at Florence with two
meetings before the general primary.
Owing to the large number of citizens
Of Florence who could not get to
hear the candidates at the monday
meeting, the county executive COM
mittee arranged for a night meeting,
and that meeting was always looked
forward to as the meeting of the
campaign. In fact, it was usually
more largely attended than the state
campaign meetings when held in
Florence.

Army Worm at Work Near MayesvilIe

Army Worm at Work Near Mayesville
This section of the state has not
escaped the ravages Of the army
worm. Last year this worm caused
a lot or trouble around here, but its
ravages are far worse this season. 1t
is not the cotton crop alone that this
pest is confning its activities to, for
the corn, hay and potato crops are
being seriously damaged also. Some
Of the leading planters report that
whole fields of young corn are being
lost on account of the worm and that
the pea vine hay crop is practically
ruined. For several years the farm
ers in this section have been reading
about the army worm but until the
last year they never knew what a
terrible pest this little worm was.

APPEAL FOR WILSON MONEY
John Gary Evans, State Chairman,
Urges Cause-Sends Letter to
Each County Chairman.

Columbia-John Gary Evans, chair
man Of the state democratic execu-
tive committee issued an appeal to
the people of South Carolina to con-
tribute to the Woodrow Wilson cam
paign fund. Mr.. Evans cabs upon
each county chairman to ask the
president of every Democratic club
to solicit subscriptions of one dollar
each from the members. This mon
.eS will be forwarded to Gen. Willie
Jones, TREASURER of the Democratic
committee.
TheIAppeal is as follows:
To the people Of South Carolina: :.
The Democratic.-party enters the
presidential campaign gnder the most
favorable auspices m its history. The
Republican party Is hopelessly divid-
ed, one wing being supported by the
Steel, Harvester and Sugar trusts and
the other by the Standard OIL, Tobac.
CO and other trusts not prosecuted.
1.-The money trust hoped to con-
troll the Democratic convention at
Baltimore, but was completely routed
and expelled from the temple.
Governor Wilson, the nominee OF
the party for president, is a states
man, honest, clean and above re-
proach. He has refused to receive
fhe money of the privilege seeking
millionaires and trusts. He is with
out personal means to run his cam
paign and entirely dependent upon the
Contributions of the people for whom
he is fighting for the necessary funds
incidental to all campaigns. Not a

any save legitimate expenses and that

How Hot Is Lava?

To ascertain the temperature Of
lava as 1t is emitted from volcano
has baffed many scientists. The
Roman academy has just published
the results of the Investigations made
by Giovanni Platania during the erup-
ton of Etna last year.
The eruption began September 10
and the scientist was unable to ap-
proach the mountain for ten days,
when one crater was still in action.
He camped as near as he could to
this crater, close to stream of lava
flowing about yard second.
Using the. new telescope pyro-
meter" he got temperatures for the
surface of the lava flow Of all the
way from 1,040 to 1,420 degrees.
A second series Of observations,
taken at a distance Of dozen feet,
gave figures as high as 1900 degrees.
The estimates are that the incan-
descent lava, as 1t comes directly
from the crater, has a temperature
not less than 1900 degrees.

A Vivid Picture.

OF all "aptitudes," the mechanical
is least likely to manifest itself in
feminine brain. The young woman
whose visit to locomotive works Is
described in Young's Magazine, was
doubtless interested in what she saw,
but her account of the processes OBJ
served leaves the reader to doubt her
entire understanding Of them.
"You pour" she told a friend, "a lot
OF sand into lot of boxes, and you
throw old stove lids and things into
a furnace, and then you turn the red
hot stream into hole in the sand, and
everybody yells and shouts.
Then you pour it out, let it cool
and pound it, and then you put in It
thing that bores holes in it. Then
you screw it together, and paint it,
and put steam in it, and it goes splen-
didly, and they take it to a drafting
room and make a blueprint of 1t.
"But one thing forgot-They have
to make a boiler One man gets in.
side and one gets outside, and they
pound frightfully, aud then they tie it
to the other thing, and you ought to
see 1t go!"-Youth's Companion.

CONTENTMENT---NoT APATHY
But All Should Remember That Vigil
lance ls the Price CT Prosperity.

It's contentment; not apathy. The
masses of the people are satisfied.
The dissatisfied are number, large
in the aggregate, but not large In pro-
portion to the total population, who
are anxious for C. political eruption, in
the hope of coming out on top, or
higher up than they are now. The
malcontents are mostly, of the non,
productive variety. They include a
lot of young fellows Nho hate hard
work and think that politics owes
them living, anG they don't much
care what happens provided they land
the sinecure they are after. Like Col
onel Sellers, they are for "the old flag
and an appropriation"
THE shadows mLrmur while the
deeps are dumb" The people are too
busy earning money and buying and
selling the good things of life to be
hunting trouble which doesn't trouble
them
Satisfied as the great majority doubt
less are with the administration OF
President Taft, it's splendid record OF
restored confidence, of flourishing in
dustries, of unprecedented growth OF
commerce at home and with foreign
nations, it is not to be forgotten that
vigilance is the price of prosperity as
We as of liberty, and that the only
way to keep the jealous drones from
breaking up the busy hive is to pile
l,n an emphatic vote for the Republi-
can candidates and the policies they
nd hv "

now enjoy, but even greater prosper.

Even a Free Trade Paper Sees the
Point!

(New York Evening Post, Oct. 16)
Any indication that campaign ap-
reals to the people are based on the
assumption of high degree of intelli.
gence in the electorate must be vel.
come to patriotic citizens, irrespective
OF party preference. 1t is for this rea.
son that we have taken such keen
l.sasure in observing that one OF the
treat electric signs-about sixty feet
high and fifty feet wide flashed out
from the advertising tower at Broad
way and Forty-third street, reads as
follows:
Remember the panic of 1S93.
Remember the p mic of 1907.
No panic under Taft.
Better be safe than sorry"
Here we have no rhetoric, no bonn.
bast, no appeal to prejudice or pas.
sion. The voter is simply confronted
with the mcontrovertible fact that
during the whole three years and six
months Of Mr.. Taft's presidency there
has been no financial panic. He is left
to do his own thinking. Could any
thing show more sublime confidence
in the intelligence of the public? The
Taft managers know that a word to
the wise is sufficient. The voter will
say to himself: "Why has there been
no panic since 1907? Is 1t not custom
airy for panics to follow each other in
rapid succession? Would there not
have been another panic in 1910 if
Roosevelt had been President, and
probably one regularly every year if
tie terrible Democrats had beon in
power? The man that saved us from
these calamities is surely entitled to
my vote" If Taft Is lot elected after
this what encouragement will there be
fer the use of sound arguments in a
o.:tical campaign?
