BELGIAN RELIEF IN PERIL.

With the approach of the summer

the Belgian relief work in the near
future is being given much consider
alton here in interested quarters.
1t is fully appreciated that difficult
ties are most certain to arise IL the
Belgian crops OF this year are taken
by the Germans for the use of the
German forces at the front. There Is
good reason TO believe that the allies

ing raised in Belgian territory under
German control are taken from the
natives and used for the German mill

lions OF immigrants who have already
made up their minds to leave Europe

Why are there not fifty American

were bought last year from Germany

Why have advertisers become quit

most effective in cheering on the bust

Why the Failure.

WY tttC EaiiuEcs
The other day the writer dropped
into specially store that was in
charge of trustee. This gentleman
was asked what was the reason for
the embarrassment. His reply was
substantially as follows: =
There was no system. One man
would sell thing for one price and
the other for some other figure. Then
there was too big stock. For ex-
ample, here is an item the sales OF
which usually run about six dozen
during the year. The last order was
for a. gross--enough to last two years,
just in order to get an additional Q 1-2
]per cent. ,,ss'
"Then, again, there were ail sorts
OF little leaks that eat up the profits.
lCariessness here and downright waste
there. Stock allowed TO collect dust
land dirt, SO that II had to be sacrificed
In order to move 1t at ell. 81
The slipshod bookkeeping is best
illustrated by an example. This article
Is free-seller and a pretty good stock
has to be carried at all times.
Instead of putting the new arrivals
at the back OF the old. they were
placed in front, SO that in the rear of
the stock shelves I found quite nm-
ber that were SO shop-worn that they
could hardly be disposed OF at any
price,"
II one store failed on account of
things of this sort, may there not be
others headed the same way? Ex-
anime your own store and see what
You find. s5

GOV. CHARLIE A. SMITH

Gov. Charles A. Smith, until yes
terday lieutenant governor OF South
Carolina, will rightfully discharge his
duties in that office. for five days. IL
he sits quietly on the lid until Coy
ernor Manning Is inaugurated. This
pardon phobia that has seized South
Carolina Is not going to be stopped
abruptly. not even with the change of
governors. and already petitions
are being rushed In to Cover
nor Smith. Cases from this city
and this county are going to
be carried before him, and so great
has become the excitement among
those seeking executive clemency they
are going to expect him to take ac-
tion.
We take 1t that Governor Smith
will act In none of these, but will
simply file all such requests for the
consideration OF his successor, who
will assume the duties of the office,
to which he was elected by the peo-
pie, next Tuesday. That will be the
course pursued no doubt.
OF course, 1t would be asking too
much to suggest that Governor Smith

over. he comes forward with his re-

STREET PAYING?-YES

Eclipsing every other subject for
conversation yesterday was the mat
ter of the street paving commission
and the effects the appointment of the
commission would have upon the re-
suits OF the election. There was con-
siderable disappointment on the part
of many that Alderman Barton was
not elected as a member OF this com
mission, on account Of his experience
in handling such matters, and his good
business judgment, and there were
many who thought the matter OF Sc.
lecting the chairman of the commits
sion should have been left to the com
mission after they had organized.
There seemed. however, to be general
satisfaction over the personnel of the
commission selected and IL Is believed
that IL the election carries some good
work will be done.
The lutelligencer. as was stated in
an editorial yesterday. Is OF the opin-
ion that the gentlemen selected will
do faithful and conscientious work,
and that there should be no question
Of defeat for the elections to be held
shortly on the ratification OF the abut-
ting property law, and the consequent
bond issue to make this law available.
The paramount need for Anderson j'.sA
now Is street paving, and to secure
this the citizens must pull together
1t will be impossible for anything to
be done that will exactly suit every
person interested. A give and take
policy must be adhered to, and IL one
has a pet scheme that he fails to get
recognized and acted upon. he should
not sit down and do nothing. The plan
selected means disappointment to
some ones else scheme. VI
Anderson has been noted for doing
the thing that means permanent loss
In many instances. We need only refer
to Winthrop College, and to the propo-
sition to have the main line of the
Southern railroad come through An
derson. These propositions were great
with possibilities for growth and de-
yelopment for Anderson, yet short
sighted policy deSeaIed them, and the
loss has been keenly felt Tie same
result was almost secured in regard
to the franchise matter, but fortunate
ly this was ayested and Anderson can
still be called THE Electric City"
