He stands for peace and har-
mony; for the unihcation Of
South Carolinians for the COM
mon good; work for the welfare
of all; for the faithful enforce
ment of law: and for universal
education.
He stands for less criticism,
more charity, a get-together
spirit, and a pull altogether for
those things that make for ma
terial, intellectual, and moral
prosperity.
He advocates a radical change
of our whole tax system, and to
that end believes that a commits
sion composed of intelligent, pa
triotic citizens should be ap-
pointed, whose business shall be
to study thoroughly the whole
subject of taxation, and formu-
late a plan that shall more even
ly and equitablv distribute the
burden.
He knows that a lawless peo
pie can never become a great
people. He believes that much
of the lawlessness with which
Carolinians are charged is due to
the all. too-frequent miscarriage
of justice in our courts and TO
the lax administration of the
law that invites mob violence.
He stands. therefore. for a rigid,
fearless enforcement OF all laws
on the statute books-good, bad,
and Indifferent.
He believes that the veto pow
er should be very cautiously,
sparingly, but conscientiously
used: and the pardoning power
never, except by a majority OF
an intelligent pardoning board.
He believes that the governor
of a commonwealth should be
the governor. of all the people,
utregard to class, creed, or
condition.
He believes in persistent, unre-
mitting effort to develop with
the least cost to our citizens the
thousands of acres of swamp
lands in our state.
He would foster any enter
prise that makes for the devel-
opment of his native state along
any line.
More than all else, he would
work for the development of our
noblest possession-the boys and
girls around our hearthstones.
The Common School the
Country Schools the College,
the University, for the thous-
ands of children in our state. He
believes that it should be made
the best educational institution
in the land. And that the in
different parent should be re-
quired to send his child to school.
His slogan is: Every child a
chance.

The supreme court of the Uni
ted States has finally settled the
long-standing dispute between
the Districtof Columbia supreme
court and the American Fedora
ton of Labor. Three of the lat
ter's officials were tried for con-
tempt of court and sentenced to
various terms, but in each case
an appeal was taken. Finally
the supreme court threw the case
out of cotNt on the ground that
the statute of limitations barred
the decree from being put into
effect. This ends one of the
hardest and bitterest legal bat
ties ever fought between capital
and labor, and labor won. The
Judge whoimposed the sentences
in the lower court is being in
vestigated by congress and may

Forty-9hree Years Old

Last week The Sentinel en-
tered upon the forty fourth year
of its existence, which is a good,
longlife for a weekly newspaper.
Though getting upin years, The
Sentinel is in a healthy condi-
ton and it bids fair to remain
the chronicler of events in the
State of Pickens until the end of
time. It is now one of the old
est papers in South Carolina.
Many men have been at the
helm of The Sentinel during
these forty-three years. some
with more fortune than others,
and the people of Pickens county
have always supported their
county paper well. Since its
establishment The Sentinel has
seen many papers born in Pick
ems county-some of which were
good papers but after brief
struggles for existence they have
ali died. save one. There is
room in Pickens county for two
good weekly papers, but no more.
There was a time when a
weekly paper could be published
and sold to subscribers for one
dollar a year, but now a paper
must have a very large number
of subscribers to enable it to ex-
ist and charge only a dollar a
year for subscriptions. Our old
est subscribers have seen the
price of practically everything
advance. except their county
paper. When the price of cot
ton was six and eight cents a
pound the price of the county
paper was one dollar a year.
Now cotton is bringing twice
that price and the price of other
farm products has increased in
proportion, but the old Sentinel
makes it's weekly visits at the
same old price.
A man can not hope to make
much money~out Of a weekly
newspaper, but there is a certain
fascination about the business
which few people who have tried
it can get rid of, and, then, there
are other things which are worth
far more than money.
The present management has
had charge of The Sentinel only
about a wear and a half, and in
that time has tried to make the
paper be of some service to this
county and, its readers. We
have published the best paper
we could under the circum-
stances, and, we say it modest
ly, haye received many compli-
nents on the paper, every one of
which we greatly appreciate. and
every one has helped us to strive
to make the paper better. It is
our ambition to publish for
Pickens county the best county
paper in the state.
The Sentinel now has the larg-
est number Of subscribers in it's
history, and We wish to thank
our subscribers and advertisers
for the libe raj support they have
given US. and assure them that
we shall always try to give them
their moneys worth-and a 1T
tie bit more.
Here's hoping that The Senti-
mel not only lives forty-three
more years. butforty-three times
forty-three more, and, like some
other things we know Of, will
get better with age.
