appointment, but on account of his
being i'll with smallpox he was un-
able to be present.
Mr. Joe McCants, who went to an
infrmary at Florence Thursday
morning for an operation, returned
home Sunday with the sad intelll-
gence that his case was too far gone
for any relief to be obtained from
an operation or medical aid. Mr.
McCants is confined to his bed con-
tinually. The writer has been asked
to appeal through your columns for
aid for this afflicted man and his
family, who are in sore need. Mr.

SENATOR EPPS COMMENDED
BY Senator Appelt for Endorsing
McLaurin'S Warehouse Plan.


McLaurin's Warehouse Plan.
There appeared in Mondays News
and Courier a letter from Senator E
C Epps of Williamsburg on the ware
house system ana we will later print
it in our columns. Senator Epps is
business man and is in close con-
tact with the farming interests, be-
ing a banker with clientele mainly
among farmers, therefore ne knows
the obstacles in the way of their
progress and what they need to put
them on an equal footing with the
other vocations. Senator Epps en-
dorses the State Warehouse system.
and he gives full credit to Hon John
l. McLaurin for its conception, and
he urges the people to stand by the
Warehouse Commissioner against
that opposition who would disparage
his efforts because of mercenary and
political motives.
It is refreshing to note the rapid
growth of the warehouse system
since the adjournment of the Legls-
lature. Business men who are not
wrapped up in political ambition, and
who have no investments in private
warehouses, are daily applying to get
the benefits that Commissioner Nc
Laurin has been able to secure, and
only recently such men as l. D Jen-
nings, Thomas Wilson and G G Row.
land of Sumter. among the strongest
business men in that county. have
turned their large cotton holdings
over to the State-controlled ware
house. Why? Because they are busi-
ness men and pay no heed to the
petty political claptrap of the oppo-
sitior to the system. When men of
this stamp look into proposition
and become convinced of its efficacy
and wisdom it is high time for the
opposition to withdraw into hole
and pull the hole in after them.
Not only are the business men OF
Sumter county taking to the ware
house system, but all over the State
they are waking up to understand
the fallacy of the arguments of those
who would nave killed the system,
and, failing to do that, they prevent
ed the Legislature from giving a
sufficient support to carry out the
plans of the Commissioner, and they
are urging their representatives to
support the institution. 1t is because
of this need that the Senator from
Williamsburg has had his very ex-
cellent letter published in a State
wide newspaper to let the people Of
the State know that he takes no
stock, in fact, repudiates, the efforts
of petty politicians and the short
sightedness of private-owned ware
houses in opposing system concelv-
ed in the brain of statesman

Hnw M War Winnows.

Just of the southern shore Of New
Foundland lie the islands of st. Pierre
and Miquelon- rather pathetic vestiges
of the broad domain France hoped TO
possess on this western continent. The
simple folk in this retired colony have
been asked TO send 500 men 10 the war.
When the physical examinations We're
over the officers found that just 800 men
were fit for service. These chosen men,
the very pick OF the colony, its best
hope for growth and betterment through
to come. are now at sea on
their way to the front. Before them is
desperate service for their mother com
try: behind them they leave the chat
and rih-rah from which they were win
moved. should they return 20 their
homes. nine in ten will bring the physi-
cal and moral injuries that war inflicts.
This instance Of destructive selection
takes our attention because il comes
close 10 our own shores We should re-
member that through the villages and
towns and cities of almost all Europe
the same process is az work. The war
is gnawing at the yitals of our race like
the vulture that tortured Prometheus.

CURRENT COMMENT
Keeping Walks Clean.

The past week has shown what citi-
zens must expect if walks and crossings
are not kept free fir m snow and slush.
The instances OF severe and frequently
fatal illness due to unclean walks are in
calculable; grip, pneumonia, sprained an
kles, broken legs and other ills follow in
their train unnecessarily. Probably no
greater aid to digestion could be suggest
ed than welding a snow shovel on walks
and crossings William Ewart Gladstone
and Theodore Roosevelt found that they
could keep themselves in condition by
chopping down trees; il one hasn't trees
to chop, someone else, at least, has walks
to shovel or sweep. Waterbury Record.

the Democrats did not nominate can-
didate for that office, but voted to EN-
power the city committee to fill all va
cancies on the ticket. Mr.. Vorce, how
ever, has declined TO accept the nomina-
tion. There appears to be a strong senti-
ment for p. T.. Sullivan to head the Dem
ocratic ticket if he can be prevailed upon
to do so, which atp resent seems doubt
full.
The other nominees of the Republican
caucus are: For city clerk and treasurer,
B. NJ. Hopkins; for oyerseer of the poor,

lie library, N. f. EEcW5er, M. Magiff;
