There were about $50 people pres
ent, mostly men, with perhaps half a
dozen ladies'
1t is a fact that when Mr.. Domi-
nick turned some of Mr.. Aiken's
Jokes in a very adroit way he was
applauded literally, even by some of
Mr.. Aiken's best friends as we'll as
by certain personal enemies who had
come to the city to make anti Aiken
demonstration.
But the Press and Banner is not
worrying about the l~eft-handed ticks
from papers who are supporting 9TH
err candidates. Wyatt Aiken has
served the people of the Third Dis
trict as faithfully as any member has
ever served it. He has remained at
his post in Washington, when fac
tional candidates in the State were
trying to cut each others Threats.
When the count is had on August
25th, we will be able 10 converse
more explicitly with our friends the
editors of the Medium and the Her
aid and News, as to who received the
applause here.

WHERE is
BLISS.

The Abbeville Medium says the
Abbeville meeting was an anti-Aiken
meeting. What does the Press and
Banner say about it? We believe
that our prediction that Dominick
would carry all the counties in the
district save possibly Abbeville needs
slight modification. We should add
Abbeville to the list. What say you,
MI. Clerk and Mr.. Press and Banner
man?-Newberry Herald and News.
One so modest in his claims for his
candidate as was Col. Auil, of the
Newberry Herald and News, should
scarcely be surprised that the editor
of the Abbeville Medium is doing
some claiming for his cousin too.
1t must be understood that New
berry, Abbeville and four other coun-
ties must be distinctly anti-Aiken be-
fore they can possibly be pro-Domi-
nick or pro-Horton. Well any man
who claims that Aiken is weak in
any one of the six counties is well
come to the pleasure the delusion
brings him.

A ON McDUFF.

Hon. Fred. H. Dominick, in his
speech here last Wednesday, took oc-
casion to use a good deal of his time
telling Hon. Wyatt Aiken how he
should spend his clerk hire fund. He
seems to think if Mr.. Aiken pays
part of his clerk hire to some poor
girl stenographer in Washington,
some to deserving girls here at home,
and some to us, he is committing a
grave offense. Evidently Mr.. Domi-
nick could not base a serious charge
against Mr.. Aiken as a true Demo-
crat and as a loyal and ever watchful
servant of the people, and since he
was entirely parliamentary in his re-
marks about US, we recognize his ex-
) tremity and excuse his dwelling on
non-essentials.
At this place Mr.. Aiken called at
tention to Mr.. Dominick's vote
against reducing the hours of labor
in cotton mills.
Mr.. Dominick set up in his defense
that the legislature was overwhelmed
with petitions not to reduce the
hours of labor, and cited a petition
from Abbeville containing some six
ty odd names. Thursday, at Amber
son, Mr.. Aiken referred 70 this petit
ton stating that it was drawn up by
the cotton mills attorney and signed
at the earnest solicitation of the man
agement, which was doubtless the
case as to all the other petitions pre-
sented. Since that time cotton mill
operatives have received the reason
able reduction of hours, but if our
information is correct MI. Dominick
could not have repented and COME to
their rescue, for the reason that he
was overwhelmingly defeated for the
legislature, and has had no opportu-
nifty to vote since on the measure.
Mr.. Dominick's explanation on this
vote seems to have consumed the
time he had devoted to us in pre-
vious counties, for in Anderson he
merely referred to us and in Pickens
and Oconee he did not so much as do
us the honor to refer to us.
Mr.. Dominick is a trained lawyer
and a good speaker, and we will say
for him that he has made the most of
a very poor case in attempting to as
sail MI. Aiken's record. People who
are experienced in politics know that
when a lawyer has no facts to rely on
in his case, his last resort is to at
tempt to discredit the opposition.
But the plain people are becoming
trained to the tricks Of lawyers, they
know that by sophistry and flap trap,
lawyers have already found their
way into the National legislature to
the tune of about two-thirds of the
total representation, and they are not
going to add another to the list from
the Third District, when they al
ready have a man whose service is
second to none, in point of loyalty,
in point of integrity, in point of Ca
pable and faithful service.

APPALLING LOSS OF LIFE
AND WEALTH.

1t has been proved by fifty years of
classified insurance in Great Britain
that every moderate drinker loses
thirteen years of life. He dies at 81,
while the abstainer lives to "a. On
this basis there are in the United
States some 10000, 900 adult males
each of whom are losing thirteen
years of life. This is leaving out all
hard drinkers, all women, all chill
dren under eighteen, and estimating
that tWo-thirds of the adult males
drink moderately. Do you take it
in? Alcohol is draining from our
national life thirteen times 20, 900, 900
years--260 ,OO0, 900 of the best years of
Americans now living, the years
from 81 to 81, when man is at his
highest efficiency!
And what of the economic loss to
the nation? Stop and think what it
means for each generation to sacrifice
on the altar of moderate drinking
26O, 600, 600 wealth-producing years!
This, observe, does not take into &C
count the heavy drinking. 1t has
been aptly said, "To strike down al
cohol would be the equivalent of
doubling all the products that come
from mother earth, the equivalent of
giving to the nation another CONT
nent as broad, as fair, as rich, as this

OUT Able
WILLIE.

Items appearing in the Greenwood
papers and in the Anderson papers,
each boldly stating the inteption OF
the respective counties to gobble up
Donalds township, and then the final
compromise between Anderson and
Greenwood: Anderson to take up
per Donalds and Greenwood lower
Donalds, are almost akin to land
grabbing methods in the Balkan
States.
Is this Turkey or Abbeville county
that is being parcelled out to the
powers? The old Turk did show
some fight, but the people of Able
vile take this little slicing up of ter
ritory as a matter of course.
1t is true that the power to 60 or
stay rests entirely with the people of
Donalds but are the people of Able
Vile to hold out nothing by way of
inducement to Donalds to remain
with the mother county?
Donalds has a place in the tradi-
tons and history Of Abbeville coun-
ty, as she now has an important
place in the commercial affairs of the
county. ,
The Southern Railroad is now run
ming a schedule by Donalds to Able
vile that is almost as satisfactory as
the trolley schedule. Tax levies in
Abbeville are lower than in Green
wood or Anderson ; and if Abbeville
merchants can't supply all the de-
mands of would-be customers from
Donalds, a change of the county lines
would not shorten the distance be-
tween Donalds and either of the 9TH
er towns.
Thus far Anderson county has been
very fortunate in holding her terri
tory, and Greenwood has been very
successful in stalking off and holding
new claims. Neither of these coun-
ties has felt the knife as has Able
vile, but perhaps when the ambi-
tons of Honea Path and Mccormick
are a little more matured, Green
wood and Anderson will begin to I'M
derstand how unpleasant it is to
dwell by neighbors who like to move
corner stones.

NOT INTENTIONAL.

In the last issue of the Herald and
News Editor Aull remarks on the
foot that this editor did not call on
him while in Newberry, stating that
while he heard we were there he did
not see us.
We do not doubt for one moment
Editor Aull's statement that he did
not see us, though it is but just to
ourselves to say that we went into
the Court House some time before
the speaking began, sat about six
seats from the front and remained in
the Court House for some twenty
minutes after the speaking. We saw
Col. Aull taking notes with his back
to the audience, on the opposite side
of the room. He must have left very
soon after the speaking. While we
do not sickle in matters of etiquette,
and if we had not been exceedingly
busy during the whole time we were
in Newberry, would have hunted
Col. Aull up, we Enaturally assumed
that he knew of our presence, and
that he would wait to speak to us.
We assure Col. Aull that we enter
tain not the least unpleasant feeling
toward him. Political differences are
the natural outcome of newspaper
support. While it may strike us
that he is claiming the earth and the
moon for a potato patch; he has his
OPT and I have mine, and only
the primary can justify either.

the American cotton manufacturer in
his domestic trade, in European

can trade, since for the time English
and German ships will have to dis
continue their transatlantic trade ;
even while the canal would have
opened up enlarged opportunities to

on double time can not consume
American cotton, and if the war is
prolonged the cotton farmer will
suffer.

CONGRESSIONAL MEET G.
AT ABBEVILLE.

So much time has elapsed since the
Congressional meeting at Abbeville,
of which the Medium has undertake
en- to give a detailed account in its
own coloring, that we will not 60 into
details as to the meeting.
All candidates were literally APP

al applause given Aiken was from

SOUTH CAROLINA SHOULD
BE REPRESENTED.

The opening OF the Panama Canal,
while literally dividing North and
South America, practically unites the
world, bringing most of the chief
ports of the great nations nearer to-
gether by thousands of miles; NOV
ing the Straits of Magellan $500
miles northward. The trip from
New York to San Francisco can now
be made in fourteen days, whereas it
formerly took twenty-four days un-
der the most favorable conditions.
Water and rail competition in this
way means increased opportunity
and economy in transportation, ef-
fecting the interests of every Ameri-
can citizen, but particularly the peo-
pie of this section.
Much as the opening Of the canal
will mean to the world generally,
and to the American nation in par
ticular, it manifestly will signify
more for our Southern States than
for any other region.
Because of its advantageous situa-
ton, and excellent seaport, South
Carolina should Immediately and
permanently enjoy these benefits
most abundantly. But are we alive
to our opportunity? Let us wake up
and arouse interest before it is too
late.
Since our legislature failed to make
an appropriation to erect a State
building and send an exhibit, is it
not our duty, as individuals, to see
that we are creditably represented
there? Ignoring the matter OF State
pride, would it not be poor business
policy to neglect this opportunity of
exploiting u resources and natural
advantages?
About fifty of the most prominent
men throughout the State have been
invited to form a Commission for the
purpose of raisin the necessary funds
for a South Carolina building and ex-
hibits at this Exposition. and it is
our duty to help them. They do not
ask for large sums from a few rich
people, but prefer small amounts from
everybody, so that we may all feel a
proprietary interest in the building
and in the success Of the undertaking.
We are asking for only 81. 90 Con
.tributions, for which the donors will
receive bronze medals as souvenir
receipts, testifying to their part in
the work. Surely this will be more
a privilege than a burden.
We have received a limited num-
Der of the medals, and they will go
on sale at this office, Wednesday,
Aug. 5th. The first applicants will
get them. Later we will have plenty
to supply the demand. Do YOU
want one of this first LOTT
We wish to impress it upon our
readers that it is infinitely more i'm
portant to THIS STATE that it be
worthily represented at that great in
ternational show than it is to the
Panama Exposition that South Caro-
lima be represented there. The Ex-
position can get along without us,
but can we afford not to be represent
ed there?
