Coffee

Do you punish yourself with poor coffee-because of price-per-pound? Price-per-pound doesn't mean economy! True economy is in such coffee as Schilling's Best-its flavor developed to such richness and fullnesS that 1t goes further: less will flavor the cup.
 Always evenly ground and

other States mentioned. "As New
York goes, so goes the election is
no longer applicable. The great West
has awakened to the fact that when
it votes almost solidly in favor of a
president, the North and Middle
West cannot cast the deciding ballot.
Wilson and peace, or Hughes and
possibility of war seemed to have
been the way the situation was sized
ND. The Western wheat planters
realized the jeopardy in which their
product was placed. The election OF
Hughes meant at least a stronger
possibility of war than the election
of Wilson. With war between the
United States and any European
country. the expectation of wheat
would be stopped. The wheat plant
ers are now receiving nearly or quite
5000 per bushel for their product.
With the expectation stopped, the
price would drop to almost nothing
as cotton dropped when the Euro
pean war first started.

In the leading editorial of the
Charleston American of November
10th, headed Mine Enemy's Book,
appears this statement: Every man
who understood the primary oath to
include the Democratic electors was
bound also. But every man who un-
derstood it to mean, what has always
heretofore been it's meaning, that it
bound him only as to primary nomi-
nees and not on presidential electorsI
was free to vote the electoral ticket
of his choice. This is what we did;
and after the greatest amount of
conscientious hesitation we voted the
Wilson ticket, largely because we
could not vote the Republican ticket,
certainly not at all because we felt
in the remotest bound by the primary
OATH We do not know who wrote
the editorial in the American, but
Mr.. John P. Grace is the the accredit-
ed editor of that newspaper, and it is
to be presumed that the article was
from his pen. Our information is
that Mr.. Grace did not vote at all in
the general election. Will Mr.. Grace
or the American kindly enlighten us
on this matter?

That was an excellent recommen-
dation of the grand jury that Bam-
berg county purchase road tractor
and we hope that the suggestion will
be carried out. Supervisor Mcmillan
is building some good roads in the
county, but it is utterly impossible
for him to keep them up properly
under the present system. AS the
matter now stands, the county is
building good roads and allowing
them to go to ruin for lack of re-
pair. A road tractor could, we be-
lieve, scrape ten miles of roads a
day, maybe more. BY keeping the
machine steadily at work repairing
roads, every mile of good roads IN
the county could easily be kept in
excellent repair, and thereby save
the county hundreds of dollars; for
if the roads are not kept in proper
repair it will be but short time be-
fore they will have to be rebuilt at
large cost.

Here's how one of the big news
gathering agencies had the election
figured out. in the newspapers it rep
resented, Wednesday morning. Many
of the New York and other newspa-
pers carried the story:
Charles Evans Hughes end Charles
Warren Fairbanks have been elected
president and vice president of the
United States by a majority of ap-
proximately 10 in the electoral col
lege. Hughes now has 297 votes;
Wilson 1877.
The Republican candidates have
made almost clean sweep of the
Northern, Eastern and Western
States.
So complete was the Republican
sweep that there seems to be a prob
ability of an Overturn of the Demo
cratic majority in the house of repre-
sentatives.
Although all the Wilson newspa-
pers in Greater New York conceded
Hughes's election by midnight, the
Democratic managers steadfastly in
sisted that Wilson had been elected.
All Of which shows that the biz
fellows don't know a great deal more
about a presidential election thar
other folks. Of course the Demo
cratic newspapers will have to be
pardoned for making a few jibes al
the Republican papers; and the cold
footed New York Wilson papers will
have to also come in for little ridi
cule.

The reelection of President Wilsr

The reelection of President Wilson
is one of the wonders of the century.
When it is recalled that the president
lacked something like two million
votes of receiving a majority four
years ago, it will be seen what diff
culties surmounted his race this year.
when he was pitted against a solidi-
fed Republican party. The best part
of the campaign this year, from a
Southern point of view, is that Will
son was elected without the help of
New York, New Jersey, Illinois, or
Indiana. These States nc longer con-
troi the elections. 1t has heretofore
been considered impossible for pres
ident to be elected without carrying
