TEACH EAST ABOUT THE WEST
Sectional misunderstanding, All Too
Prevalent, Might Be Cleared up
With Farm Education.

In many western states they have
begun to teach earth education, says
writer i'm the Country Gentleman.
1t has taken hold with Il magnificent
grip. Boys and girls are showing
amazingly more interest in the
growth of a tomato vine than they
ever did in the table manners of the
Mcdcs and Persians. Some day all
our public schools may teach little
elementary agriculture and awaken
an interest in children in things that
grow an interest that should lead
to future enlightenment aud under
standing If only the single prin-
ciple that successful farming is moi
haphazard pastimc, but business
and science requiring both patience
and ingenuity, could be hammered
home tremendous advance would
be made.
1t might also be an excellent plan
TO teach eastern school children few
truths concerning our great west,
and our western school children a
few truths about the east-not the
wild and wolly west nor the colonial
east, but the west and east of today.

Editor DeCamp of the Gaffney
Ledger thinks that Mr.. Finley is
'treading close to the brink of
Republicanism" in view of his
vote in the Panama tolls repeal
matter. Mr.. DeCamp. if we
mistake not. has always been
cold-footed to our present con-
gresham and that he should
thus wrongly size UP Mr.. Fin
ley's stand is not surprising.

The Rock Hill Herald an
nounces that James Cansler OF
Tirzah will again be in the race
for State railroad commissioner,
whereupon the Yorkville En-
ouirer remarks that Mr.. Cansler
has received more votes for the
office than any man who ever
ran for it. But the trouble with
Mr.. Cansler is that the votes
,lon't come his way in big

Of dirty bills. His money looked as il

Wehman didn't keep it s secret about

him some time during week preceding

was dirty and had rent on edge. Swore
that it was bill Wehman gave him.

him. Bills we're stained red on edge.
Mr.. Burdick collected seven bills. Could

great deal Of money about four or FIVE
years. 1t was deposited by Mr.. Bur-
dick in Third National Bank. He had
authority to pay Wehman's bills. Bill

Team Ran Away.

Col. Tom Scott, the Hauser Valley
Republican, brought his wagon and
team to town last Saturday and when
the team saw John Adams new street
they got full Of sport and started, high
gear, down First street all the way from
the railroad, pell nell, with the wagon
rumbling behind them and the side
walks waking up with noises and the
yelling OF kids. Down they went over
the smooth service, in the 2:20 class,
with Guy Lees Ham Patterson record
beaten, the wagon skidding and the
harrow playing rag time in the bed,
turning the corner at Washington street
on a graceful pivot, in an easterly d.
rection, twenty degrees south, towards
the Francis Airdome. Here they over
looked Mr.. Pickard's guy wire in the ex-
element and made grand detour over
the wire just in front of the barber shop.
Over the wire went one side OF the wagon
and down on the pavement one Of the
horses, the other sport making circus
spring over his back. The crowd in
the street had gathered like Doc Turner's
Fourth OF July to see the fun. Nobody
made the race in the wagon and nobody
hurt; the horses came out OF event
with but few scratches, but they looked
like tango dancer the morning after.
But where was Scott2 He hasn't been
seen since. We understand he is at
home, however. and will not be back to
town for several weeks.
After the runaway Mr.. SCOTS son,
who caught the team when they came
to halt, was considerably injured, but
did not feel hurt much until he went
home. He was not seriously hurt.

In Honor Of Thomas Rye.

In Honor or homas rye.
Tangled the web for years
OF dear old Tennessee.
Driven here, pulled there,
Uuntil half an eye could see the end.
Unless we steered for another port
We'd 60 to smash on the hidden rocks.
Ye Godsl The thought-Democracy
Trailing in the dust
Gone forever in the bottomless pit,
Buried beneath the debris
From those who are true
By pollution and rottenness
OF platform that poasted
What they would do.
But thanks, the winning is coming our
way,
Wea proudly Drawing the bay.
With every wire Strengthened
The good ship is sailing in the harbor
With full crew OF Tennessee men
That are staunch and true,
Handled by Rye, who dares to do.
Breakers ahead there are
We are not afraid, for we are steady now,
Homeward bound.
With Old Glory floating to the breeze
That stirs our sails, we are speeding,
Armed with power that defes defeat.
Truth and honor are the colors
Looped around the polls
In November, not far away
With Rye the chieftain. Cheer, boys,
cheer,
And rally round the old flag without q
fear.
