COOPER SAVED THE DAY.

The Columbia Record, in our judg-
ment, correctly sizes up the situa.
ton when it says that the entry OF
Mr.. Cooper in the race for Governor
saved the day. In the first race the
Blease forces were organized to q
finish. Neither Governor Manning
nor Mr.. Cooper had a real organiza.
ton in the state. If either had been
in the race alone with Mr.. Blease the
chances are that the latter would
have been elected on the first ballot.
The result of the first primary was
enough to teach US that there is
little merit in newspaper advertise
ment and in the distribution of cir,
culars in a primary election. Real
results are accomplished by an or.
ganized fight such as was made TO,
Mr.. Blease in the first race and by
the friends of Governor Manning ir
the second race.

BUYING VOTES.

There are few men in Abbeville
county, if any, who would sell their
votes for even an unimportant office.
An offer to buy the vote of the av-
erage man would be such an insult
as would likely result in violence.
It may be said, too, that often
times two good men run for Office
and it is a matter of Indifference
which is elected, and the elector may
cast his ballot for either and serve
the interests of the state.
The latter fact has given rise to a
practice Of trading votes on election
days, which may seem entirely HARM
less on the face of things, but which
in its evil results may be as bad or
worse than vote buying. If a man
may be induced to vote for bad man

PLANT GRAIN.

The farmers of Abbeville county
should not be induced to leave off
the planting of small grain by the
present good price of cotton. Cotton
is bringing a good price largely be-
Gauge more cotton was used last sea-
son than was made in the crop year
of 19l4-15, and because the present
crop is unusually short. We shall
not be SURPRISED if cotton goes to
twenty cenB per pound. We do not
expect it to 60 much lower than it is
ut present.
And therein lies the danger. In
stead of continuing to plant small
grain, corn, peas, and other food
products wherewith to live at home,
we fear that a great many farmers
will 60 back to the one crop plan and
raise all cotton next year. If such
should be the case, and an enormous
crop should be raised, we shall see
lower prices again. Better to keep
up the causes which give us the good
prices than to kill the goose which
is laying the golden egg.
The wise farmer will, therefore,
undertake to keep the wave of pros
perity from subsiding, and he will
induce his neighbor to see the situa-
tion as he does, and the farmers in
their organizations, if they would
serve the public good, will induce
their members to continue their
farming operations on the same plan
as that adopted in the last two years.
Then the farmer will be king, and
cotton his chief source of revenue.

WAREHOUSE INSURANCE.

- Now that the warehouse system is
gaining a footing throughout the
south, and the warehouse industry
shows signs Of being able to stand
alone, we suggest that the warehouses
should begin to carry their own in
surance.
The cotton mills and other corpor-
ations which do business throughout
the country have their mutual in
surance associations, operated on
the same general plan by which the
farmers insurance companies are
operated in the rural districts. We

HOW 70 SAVE.

In another column Of this paper
will be found an advertisement OF
the Building and Loan Association
of Abbeville. 1t is there stated that
the company will in a few days pay
out about ten thousand dollars, and
since its organization it has paid out
about seventy-five thousand dollars
to its stockholders.
This institution has given the peo-
ple of Abbeville a lesson in saving
We believe that the stockholders OF
this corporation have accumulated
the sums of money mentioned by
making small monthly payments
which have not been missed. Enough
money has been saved in this way to
establish a bank with a capital stock
equal to that of any bank in the
county.
Some years ago, in the panicy
times of the nineties, when a citizen
of the town was complaining of the
hard times and another citizen stated
that he could always make a living
no matter how much hard times we
had, the first replied that anyone
could make q living but the average
man wanted to improve his condition
from year to year. A great many
men do not improve their conditions
because they do not know how to
begin and the means of so doing
seems entirely beyond their reach.
The Building and Loan Associa-
ton furnishes to these people way
to accumulate. It offers the advan-
tage of a savings bank, and in. addi-
ton to this, it offers the further ad'
vantages of better interest returns
and compulsory monthly payment.
The young men and women in the
city who are drawing monthly salar-
les would do well to talk over the
plan of this institution with Mr..
Morse. There is no time better to
commence saving than the present.

for an important Office in order to
obtain a vote for favorite candidate
in whom he is interested, and if he
makes a trade of this kind even
without intending actual wrong, ne
thereby puts it in the power Of de-
signing persons in an indirect way
to buy votes and to elect unworthy
men to Office.
There is no safe way to serve the
public interest at the ballot box ex-
cept for every man to vote his own
ticket according to his own reason
and conscience. The professional
vote trader may be vote buyer.

MANNING's REELECTION.

The Press and Banner was not one
of the original supporters of Cover
nor Manning in the campaign which
has just clased. We did not approve
of much of the legislation which he
fathered and which was placed on
the statute books during his first
term. Nevertheless, we said before
and during the campaign that Gov
ernor aiming, left to himself, would
have made fewer errors than he did
make, because we knew that his heart
beat true for South Carolina. And
his measures were not all bad. He
did good work at the State Hospi-
tai. He fought the blind tigers Of
Charleston to a finish, and taught
that city that the law must be re-
spected.
And in the administration of the
law he stood for the constitution and
for the enforcement of the mandates
of the courts. He respected the
other departments Of government,
and sought to serve the people of
the state irrespective of factional
differences. He knew neither friend
nor foe in the administration of the
law.
For that reason, when Mr.. Cooper
was no. longer a candidate, we were
for Governor Manning. And his
election gives US pleasure as it does
that great body Of thinking people of
South Carolina who would see the
laws faithfully executed, who would
have society protected from the
crimes of the lawless, who believe
that the liquor laws of the state
should be enforced in Charleston, and
every other city, just as they are in
Abbeville, who would see the wards
of the state properly treated in a
hospital, which is a real hospital, and
who would see the state in peace at
home and respected abroad. 81

know that some of the insurance in
these corporations is written at rate
of about one-half that charged by
the standard fire insurance compan-
les, and besides a good dividend Is
annually returned to the insured
members. There is no reason why
the same plan would not work with
the warehouses.
And if the state is to guarantee
the solvency of these warehouses,
and to stand behind the warehouse
receipts, there is no reason why the
state should not carry this insurance
as it does upon public buildings. It
could be done, and an enormous
amount of money could be saved to
the holders of cotton. According to
the report of Commissioner McLau-
in, something like $4,000 was paid
out last year for insurance premiums,
on cotton stored in state warehouses,
and the losses amounted to less than
two thousand dollars. This will
not happen every year, but insurance
premiums are too. high, and some
thing should be done, to save the
planters Of the state the enormous
charges collected by the insurance
companies.
