THE SMITH MULE.

dedicated to the memory of the un-
known scribe by w. a. Galley, Iva,
Oh! you Bleasite whoever you may be,
i read your 'pocln" and you surprised
You have misuuotcd things from the
top on down
But the Smitlitcs are still on the fin
est ground.
You ask if can think OF any invl-
tation
That is half as rotten rs the State
Convention.
That question is so absurd it makes
me smile
For Bleasc's record is SO rotten i
smell 1t "A mile.
Then you have the audacity to write
more and say
The convention passed q rule to keep
the poor man away;
To make such Il statement is certainly
shame
For their marks are legal If they
can't write their name.
That is q good rule and you must
agree il Is fair
For when you sign your name you
know 1t is there
And no one can tell you on election
day
You haven't cnrollcd and you must
stay away.
Blease has right to sweep the state
know.
For he is the ono that has dirtied it
But ne can't use the broom as he is
now unable
And lie must get his job hack IN the
livery stable.
IL that was Smith mule I wrote
about
l would go to the stable and turn it
out.
For l wouldn't let Blease feed Il pig
OF mine
Much less mule as they are too fine.
I'm justice to all concerned IN this
good natured controversy, The Intelli-
gencer wishes to say that 1.-The un
known scribe" was Mr.. J. l. o. Shaw
Of Rock Mills, whose name was sign
ed to the article sent in. And In JUS
tice to this office we wish to state that
Mr.. Shaw wrote on both sides Of the
paper and the printer Jailed to see the
best part OF Judge Shaw's poem. In
order to keep the controversy taa-
anced, we will print 1t all II he has a
copy)

"DER WACHT AN RHEIN,


The German national song is 'The
Watch on the Rhine" Its origin Is
| said TO have been due to the efforts
OF the French statesman, Thiers, to
have the Rhine made the eastern
boundary Of France. Although the
song was written in lS40 it lay in OBJ
scuriiy until 1870 wher ii burst forth
y0lcanically to thrill the hearts of
the river OF the Fathcrland. Max
Sclicckcnburger, The author, died in
| Obscurity at the age OF 30. but today
g monument marks his resting place
and commentaries his influncc upon
the nation. Half million soldiers in
the war of 1870 sang his exhilarating
words upon the march or around the
bivouac. The words are as follows -
the best English translation.
Like thunder rings the call to war,
Like sabre's clang and pillows roar;
On to the Rhine, the German Rhine.
Who will not fight TO guard its line?
Dear Fatherlund. all care resign,
For stcadfast stands the Watch on
Rhine.
Through countless thousands thrills
the cry,
And courage CLEANS from every eye;
The German, honest. pious. true,
Defends the sacred line OF bli'
"He turns his eye toward heavens
crown,
Whence heroes of the past look down.
And proudly VOWS; Rhine like me.
Thou shalt forever German BE-.
."Wliile yet drop OF blood burns.
While yet one hand the sword hiit
turns,
While yet one arm a gun can aim.
No foeman's foot thy shore shalt
shame
1.-THE VOW resounds, the flood mounts
high.
The flags are wavering In the sky;
Along the Rhine, the German Rhine.
We all will guard its sacred liue!
Dear Fatherland. oil care resign.
For steadfast stands the Watch on
Rhine"
The music was written by Karl Will
helm, who after the Germans were
victorious in the Franco-Prussian
war. was given an annual pension
from the government. The influence
Of music and poetry upon patriotism
cannot be computed in dollars.

TOWN AND COUNTRY

The average layman perhaps fails
to appreciate the vast intrinsic i'm
poftAnce Of the newer agriculture, in
which Anderson county is beginning
10 take q commanding lead. The ~
eTage town mali sometimes Is too
much inclined to forget that after
all no town is greater. no city better,
than the country which surrounds It:
than the moral political and econmic
influence which the country con-
yersely, yet definitely reflects upon
the city.
1t Is therefore Of the highest i'm
pOrtance that every move made for
the betterment of agricultural con-
ditions; for the betterment OF the life
upon the farm; for the purpose of en-
couraging the raising of larger and
better crops; for the improving OF bet
ter home conditions and the securing
OF higher ideal on the farm and
therefore hence in the city. should
receive the very highest endorsement
OF f'all thinking and progressive people.
Rome fell because of lack of appre-
oiation of her agricultural back
ground and brow beating of her fin
|y Influences springing = erefrom. She
failed to appreciate that her greatness
came from her agriculture and that
therefore. she must. If she would con-
tinue to exist, work with the multitude
who had for their purpose the com-
mon good Of not only themselves but
the structure also upon which was
reared all that was best in the city of
seven hills.
The great and growing and definite
movement now goin on throughout the
confines of the American states for
agricultural betterment. In, thous-
and and one phases, is beginning in
no uncertain way. to make q real start
in South Carolian. state by nature,
climate and conditions preemtnently
agricultural and no where else In
South. Carolina is the movement Gu a

son county. And nowhere else, per-
haps In the whole south Is . CONNER

Yuma County Dry.

YUMA, Nov. 4.-The democrats of
Yuma county won thorough victory
in yesterdays election. Every man
on the ticket with the possible ex-
ception of the county attorney was
elected. The returns came in very
slowly and in fact, at an early hour
this morning, only half of the pre-
cincts had been heard from and in
many of the larger precincts only
half of the vote have been counted.
The drys have carried the county.
apparently by small majority, which
may grow larger as the later returns
come in. The town of Yuma is
slightly wet. The valley is very
dry and there are dry precincts all
over the county. The indications at
three o'clock this morning are that
the democrats have not lost a man,
with the possible exception above
indicated.

GENERAL RESULTS.

Governor Hiram Johnson has been
elected in Califonia by an over
whelming vote. The contest for the
U. IS. Senate between Knowland and
Phelan is close, with the chances in
favor of the latter, the democratic
candidate.
Two proposed laws in which inter
est throughout California was in
tense-that providing for statewide
prohibition and the universal eight
hour workday measure-have gone
down to overwhelming defeat Seem
ingly, prohibition has lost by almost
two to one, while the margin of
victory for the opponents of the eight
hour law is much greater.
Uncle Joe Cannon has been put
back into the seat in the house that
he held for so many, many terms as
the representative of the Daanville
district in Illinois,
NSOISG SdISOu,
feated former Senator Thomas NJ
Patterson, democraat, in the race for
the governorship of Colorado.
Charles S. Whitman, republican,
was elected governor by a plurality
of 129, ,642 over Martin H. Glynn,
democrat.
James W. Wadworth, Jr., republi
can, defeated James w. Gerard, dem
ocrat for United States senator, by
plurality of probably $4,000, and
the republicans were given control
of both branches of the legislature
in a great landslide which swept New
York Tuesday.

FOUR STATES

ARIZONA COLORADO, OREGON
AND WASHINGTON CARRY
STATE WIDE PROHIBlTIoN-
SUFFRAGE IN TWO STATES.

PHOENIX, Ariz, Nov. 4.-By a sub
stantial majority, probably nearly g.,
900, the state of Arizona was voted
dry at yesterdays election. Not
until late tonight was this definitely
determined, although the count of the
ballots gave at all times a good
indication of the probable ultimate
result
Already there is raised a question
as to when the closing of the saloons
in Arizona will become effective. I'm
der the wording of the amendment
it is claimed, Arizona must actually
become dry on January 1. However,
it also says that the legislature
must adopt appropriate legislation. 1t
will be a question for Attorney Gen
eraal Elect Wiley E. Jones to decide,
George Purdy Buullard, the incum-
bent, having passed the rendering of
an opinion to his successor.
AS a result of the election, Arizona
stands unique in being the first state
to adopt statewide prohibition the
first time the proposition was pre-
sented. Also, Arizona, in electing
Mrs. Frances W. Munds, democrat, of
Yavapai county, to the state senate,
establishes precedent, no instance
being known of any other state hav-
ing previously elected a woman to it's
senate.
1t is believed that every county,
with the possible exception of Cochise
and Pima, are in the dry columns,
these two being still in doubt. but
probably wet by a small majority.
Four Dry States.
CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-Two of the six
states that voted on the question of
ousting the saloons have decided to
retain bar-rooms while the other four
on the latest returns have apparently
extirpated the selling of alcoholic
drinks. Ohio and California voted in
favor of retaining saloons, while Colo
RADIO, Oregon, Arizona and Washing
ton closed theirs Washington, on the
first returns, showed a wet majority,
but later returns gave the drys a
slight lead, which tended to increase.
Women Gain Two States.
CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-Woman suf-
frage leaders rejoiced tonight when
women had apparently been granted
belated returns indicated votes for
in two out of seven states voting on
the question, with the third in doubt
The first returns indicated defeat in
all seven. Montana and Nevada, ac-
cording to the latest returns, have
granted votes to women, while Neb-
raska has shown such a small vote
against the proposal the women have
claimed the state
Missouri, Ohio, North and South
Dakota refused to grant suffrage.

The Result in Parker.

A few surprises developed in the
returns from this precinct. AT the
last minute, or rather early in the
morning, the friends of j. e. Beck
started in to boost him for justice OF
the peace, against J. F. Collins, the
regular democratic nominee. Beck
won out by two votes.
Another surprise was the race that
John Roberts made against William
Stake for constable. The former was
non-partisan candidate, while the
latter was the regular democratic
nominee. Roberts won by 81 majority
Peter r. Robertson, the socialist
candidate for superior court judge,
was backed by the local prohib-
itionists, who evidently didn't care
who they were voting for so long as
he was dry, and Peter says that he
is awfully dry this season There's
reason-he wanted Office but
socialist by over two to one.
Coleman, non-partisan candidate for
county attorney also made surpris-
ing run in Parker Not so surprising
after all when it developed that the
vets as we'll as the drys were boost
ing his game. Democrats also help
ed whole lot, while the republicans
stuck to him like a leech. The bal
ance of the non-partisans received
very little support here.
All of the amendments carried here
with the exception of the eight-year
prohibition election amendment, and
the bill to create Miami county. The
doubtful voter evidently voted yes,
instead of no on the majority of
the amendments. The state reclama
ton amendment carried by 1O4 to s.
