OF STATE
A LAW VIOLATOR

l. NJ. Howell, secretary of state
candidate for reelection, has shown
himself to be a partisan of the most
dangerous type.
In his eagerness to secure the pas
sage of the seven referendum meas
ures and the constitutional amend
ment he has attempted to evade the
law by writing the ballot titles so as
to deceive the voters into believing
they were voting against the measures
when in reality they were voting for
them.
1t was necessary to bring a suit
against Howell to compel him to place

goods, then turned to her nervous,
neglected sister and helped her to get
the attention all customers are en-
titled to. The plain clothes woman
bought goods to the value of $21.60.
That was one time the better
dressed woman won on "a good 'front.'"
but it was also one time a clerk was
fooled by it, and ought to be fired for
it, in the interest of the store which
hired him.
First come, first served seems a
good motto in all sorts of dealings,
and if not observed all sorts of dealers
will lose money.
That clerk is probably a member of
the Commercial Club, seated in that
body by the favor of some one who
bought more seats than he needed.

HARD KNOCKS FOR
REFERENDUM MEASURES

Last Monday night at Liberty Hall,
James L. Bradford, progressive candi-
date for governor, delivered a most
forceful, lucid and convincing address
against the seven referendum meas
ures and the constitutional amend
ment
Mr. Bradford went deep into the
history of these measures, dissecting
them with a skill only possible with a
man thoroughly conversant with every
section of these infamous propositions.
He showed their origin, their hellish
aims, their unprecedented effrontery,
their utter shamelessness. He de-
clared them an insult to the intelli-
gence of great majority or the peo-
pie of this state.
Mr.. Bradford has repeatedly chal-
lenged the advocates of these. or anv
of these, measures to discuss them be-
fore any audience at any time in any
place. Would the sponsors and sup
porters of these attacks on the liber-
ties of all the people, except the
beneficiaries of special interests"
and the privileged classes" in general,
dare meet him on the rostrum?
No, they dare not do it!
These measures Mr.. Bradford clear
ly shows emanated from public service
corporations and their hired tools.
They hope to secure enough dupes to
pass them at the election on Novem-
Der 7. Will they be able to accom-
plish their designs? We hope not
The people have been asleep, Too
many of them are asleep yet. The
daily press treats these referendum
measures as of minor Importance.
The two older and larger political
parties have no issues in this state,
Judging by the campaign they are
carrying on. We hear nothing from
them except you were a wet, but now
you are a dry; you were a dry, and
now you are wet" and such stuff as
that They were both tarred with the
same stick.
There are seven legislative acts be-
fore the people which have for objects
the robbing of the public, the disfran-
chsement of the masses and the de
struction of labor organizations.
During the campaign little has been
heard from the republican and demo-
cratic leaders concerning these vicious
measures. The republican platform
endorsed them. The democratic plat
form evaded them. A few candidates
of both parties have had the courage
to denounce them. No candidate, to
our knowledge, has had the hardihood
to endorse them.
One candidate for the high office of
governor, Ernest Lister by name, the
present incumbent of the office, signed
five of these measures, and last week,
feeling the pulse of the public and
seeing "the handwriting on the WALL
publicly denounced the whole con
temptible batch. He says he didn't
understand them when he placed his
signature to them. Fine man to draw
a salary from the people for being in
competent to hold his job. That is the
most charitable view of it,
In justice to Senator PoindeXter,
Geo. F. CotterilI, Congressman Dill.
Mrs. Frances Axtel democratic can
didate for congress in this district
and best and most disinterested of
them all, James E. Bradford (pro-
gressive candidate for governor, /
openly and forcefully denounced these
acts of infamy.
We thank Mr.. Bradford for his ef-
forts in behalf Of the people

|. w. w. APPEAL

That's an interesting but sad bit
of reading reproduced from the Seattle
l. w. w. organ, Solidarity and pub
lshed elsewhere in this issue. The
plea calls for funds and faces-funds
for the agitators of the organization
and new faces that will get by the
keen inspection of the Everett citizens
committee.
"All the faces that have heretofore
been sent to Everett have left their
marks here on the saps or knuckles
of Sheriff McRae and his officers and
citizen deputies and consequently
they are of no additional use here, the
statement asserts.
Besides their owners would just as
soon take their faces to some other
town where the citizens are not so
thoroughly organized and not so firmly
resolved that the peace of the COM
munity shall not be jeopardized by a
lot Of lusty lunged agitators.
"'We must put Everett on the l.
w. w. map says the plea of the
Everett Free Speech Committee
"If the committee will take another
slant at that |. w. w. map it will see
that Everett already is there in large
letters and in equally large letters are
the words, Danger. No place for
agitators.'
The foregoing is an editorial in the
Everett Tribune last Saturday.
The Tribune seems much concerned
about the few members Of the |. W.
W. who came, to Everett either of their
own motion or by the invitation, or
some act, of the open-shoppers. 1t
admits the brutality with which the
members of this organization were
treated.
The Tribune and it's hackers did not
make war on the |. w. w. for the
reasons it would have it's readers be-
leve, but for the purpose of throttling
free speech only when uttered by the
cohorts of open-shop-ism.
The real fight is made upon the
Shingle Weavers' Union in particular
and all unions in general.
The unions have little or nothing in
common with the |. w. W., but they
are willing that all men may exercise
their constitutional right of free
speech They believe in it.
"Incendiary utterances" should not
be confounded with free speech" but
if they are to be prohibited and pun
ished, the attention Of law officers is
called to many inflammatory speeches
made on the floor of the Everett Com
mercial Club, that unlimited, vicious
meddler in the industrial affairs of
Everett working men. The club took
a hand in a game wherein it did not
even possess a single white check.
But the Tribune cannot see anything
like that.
'Lusty lunged agitators" of the
Commercial Club are a self-appointed
committee of unsafety-disturbe of
the peace and good will which should
and would exist in this community if
the club would adopt a policy of fair
play and at least gently chide the
bombastic bunch which now seems to
control and run the organization.
Don't "holler yer head off, about
agitators If it were not for them
there would be no organizations of
any kind-not even churches.

has noticed 4 great falling-off in the
sale Of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone

"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re-

gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed by every druggist
who sells it. A large bottle costs so
cents, and if it fails to give easy re-
lief in every case Of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodson's Liver Tone Is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousncss, sick
headache, acid stomach or ccnstipat-

Joe Long and his brother, Bruce
Long, were on this side Of the river
returning TO their home in Saluda,
driving a horse and Il mule, crossing
the steel bridge on the Higgins road,
miles from N0wbcrry. The river
was very high and on the other side
they got into deep water Attempt

near drowning when he caught the

Blair, Custis Lcitzcy, Oscar Long.
Henry Long and Mayer IIavird, all of
Silver Street, went down to the river
between 5 and o'clock to see how
high it had risen. and heard the voice
OF ~ man calling for help in a tree be-
yond the bridge. They knew by his
voice that he was nearly frozen to
death and could not stand it much
longer, having already been in the
tree, as they afterwards learned, for
more than an hour. with the temper
ature bitter cold.
Two OF the men. Custis Leitzey and
Jim Blair, stripping off their clothes,
ran across the bridge and saw the
man up tree about rs yards down
the river. They plunged into the
water and waded as far as they could
ana .hcn swan the rest of the way
and brought him back to the New
berry side, carrying him nearly fro
zen to the house Of negro, Bell
Abney, where they got him warmed
up enough to hurry with him to the
house Of his brother. John Long, at
Silver Street.
Bruce Long succeeded in swimming e
and wading out on the Saluda side
and got to the house Of a negro. who
