LOCAL MAN ONCE
HERALD'S EDITOR

The Mexican Herald, leading
newspaper OF the Republic, whose
office was shelled today during the
battle between rebels and federals,
was at one time under the editor
fal management of a Richmond
young man, Edward Conley, whose
death occurred at mis- home here
several years ago. Conley, who had
gained considerable prominence in
literary fields went to Mexico In
the hope that his health might be
benefited, and for several years he
apparently was much improved. Be
fore leaving Richmond he had done
newspaper work in the Offices of
the Palladium and Item and for a
time conducted a Sunday newspa-
per. 1t was natural that he should
drift into his former calling when
he reached Mexico City and it was
only a few months before he was
connected with the Herald as an
editorial writer, later assuming the
editorial management. He severed
his connection with the Herald aft
er nearly three years service to be-
come United States vice consul
ct Mexico City, which position he
held until his health became so i'm
paired that he was forced to resign.
He returned to Richmond and lived
bat q few months.

Bill COLLECTORS,

Blessed are the bill collectors, for
they keep things moving.
Man left to himself is naturally lazy.
He dawdles and procrastinates and
asks what's the use. He keeps on
dawdling and procrastinating and ask
ing what's the use until the bill col
lector knocks at the door. Then he
realizes that something must be done.
His pleasant whats the use' philoso-
ply Is forgotten, and he busies himself
about the tasks that await him. he
keeps at it until he satisfies the bill
collector. Then he goes back to his
philosophy.
Blessed are the bill collectors, for
they shall get acknowledges Library.

QUESTION OF HONOR
(National News Association


INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 12.-There
was a clever little double-headed 10
ker" in the automobile test bill when
it went through the senate. Originally
it prohibited making speed tests of au-
tomobiles and motorcycles on any high
way in the state. The Outside manu-
facturers' in the state got in their
work and had the measure confined to
Marion county. This would give the
Indianapolis Speedway, controlled by
Carl Fisher, a great boost, but the sec
ond section of the joker bobbed up
when the bill was made to read that
the measure exempted all motor ma
chimes to and from the Speedway. The
route was not specified and hence any
machine testing out on the highways
might stand pat on the claim that it
was 'enroute to the Speedway" even
though by devious route.

Nothing that we saw indicated any
spirit of antagonism; no little petty
spirit to cripple. but everybody hold
ing up each other with support, and
other means to succeed. The Coun-
ty Record, the only newspaper IN
Williamsburg county, is filled with
the livest kind of advertising; every
business house, small and large. has
an advertisement in the paper; the
Board of Trade from its treasury
carries a full page advertisement IN
the towns interests; every profess
sional man feels as much interested
in the up-building of Kingstree as
the merchants and so it is, the town
is live with willing workers. Has 1t
paid the people of Kingstree to spend
their money for advertising? Ask
any of the business men to what they
attribute their increase of trade and
their population. Ask them if their
tobacco warehouses would have at
tracted the 100000 POUNDS they
expect to handle this season. Ask
them would they be content to 60
back to the old time tightwad and
short-sighted methods. Ask all classes
whether or not their campaigns OF
advertising has increased the trade,
and then, when these questions have
been asked and answered, verify
them by a personal investigation. II
Kingstree has accomplished all OF
this while other towns, better situ-
ated, stand still, it should arouse
business men to get together with q
determination to set the wheels Of
progress in motion.
Greater things can only be accom-.
plished by united effort. No town
can prosper if the property in it is in
hands that refuse to yield to prog
ress-those who have the town cork
ed up should do as was done in the
progressive towns, loosen up so it
can change into active hands; put
away personal differences and every
one strive to unity the community
for thegeneral welfare. If this course
is pursued great improvement will
be felt in a short time. Manning is

ing a hat Of extraordinary shape, and
in his nervousness at meeting the man
Of fame he let the hat slip. 1t fell
with a hollow thud upon the door. The
engineer looked with establishment at

and apologized for the noise 1t had
caused. 1t was Of wood. he explained.
He had made 1t himself. turning 1t

have his merit appreciated early In
life. But no one ever presumed less
on a wide reputation. Afectati0n was
a weakness from which his sense Of
humor saved him.
In his biography by Mr.. W. H.

tastes who made the journey to Scar

to make the artists acquaintance.
On his arrival he found the studio
