Mr. Root could not justly be accused
of arguing from a brief in the inter-
ests of the Republican party. "Well,

Nothing" he went on, "can be chang

electing a Republican President in
1916 will not be enough Nothing but
the sweeping away Of the new Sec

almost labor of Sisyphus, for sus-
picion of the integrity and patriotism
of business men has become a black
obsession in many minds Mr. Root
deprecates mere attack" Misunder-
standings cannot be banished by en-
ploying the tactics OF the haters and
hato~e of orsanized industrv. "Th'
first thing is" he says, that the busi-
ness men OF the country should be-
come vocal. Talk, agitate and ex-
plain. Fight to clear the air. Try TO
make the people understand that bus

JONESNILLE

Jonesville, Aug. 24-This is nv
second letter that was ever written
for publication and | want to sty here.
now, l never went to school but one
month in my life in a school house
built for that purpose. What little
school training l have, l got by m
uncle in old houses that were not for
people to live in and l never had the
chance to get a longer term than
three months. Now we have nice
school houses all over the county and
run nine months in the year.
The patrons of the Gault school
house gave an ice cream supper on the
2Sth, and a large crowd attended:
we had all kinds of music, piano, or,
gan, guitar and violin and some
dancing. Everybody seem to enjoy the
evening fine. But one of the greatest
mistakes that any religious or Chris
tian people could have made, was
when Rev. j. S. Thrasner, was de-
MED the privilege of making temper
ance talk. AS for myself | don't
want prohibition like the preachers
and christian people say. l am no
church member but / want to saw
here, love a good man or woman and
| would be the last man to try to stop
a religious service or to hinder any
man from making temperance talks
at Gault school house. l have a good
wife and four children and the older
| get the more | think about the evils
and trials of this life, but what en-
couragement do l have to unite nv
self with the church or set of So
called christian people that would
deny Missionary Baptist preacher
from making temperance lecture at
Gault school house, when various other
entertainments were allowed
Rev. Thrasher resided in Spartan
burg for two years before he came to
Union and has been a resident of
Union for two years. l have known
him for about six manths but l have
as much faith in his religion as any
man in the county. He is ripe in age
and | don't think or believe he has the
intention of doing anything but the
right thing, but he is not perfect and
no man who reads this is.
| do hope the good people Of Gaulu
school distict will get together and
all pull for the same cause and lend
a helping hand to anything that is
instructive and upbuilding from edu-
cation and christian standpoint.
