Many Are Seeking
Big Nitrate Plant

Washington-The $50, 900, 900
nitrate plant just authorized by
congress in the bill of Senator E.
d. Smith may not be located in
South Carolina, although some
Of the South Caroliuians are
making efforts in that direction
to dav. Senator and Represen-
tatlves Grandy and Dillon of
South Dakota conferred with
President Wilson about the ad-
vantages Of the bend or little
bend portions of the Missouri
river as q site for the plant.
They left with the president
carefully drawn maps of these
great power section of the Mis-
souri, with arguments concerning
each proposed site.
The president is going to be
besieged by different localities
as to the erection of the proposed
plant, but he will probably turn
the matter over to q conn mission
which he will appoint to investi-
gate the question. The bill pro-
vides that the president shall
name q commission to investi-
gate the subject of the best me-
thod of securing nitrate and to
determine where such plant
shsuld be located. He will do
nothing until this commission,
soon to be appointed is named
and reports TO him.-P. n. Nc

Should Women Vote!

leap to il. 1t is sometimes
startling to observe how woman s
intuitiotn surpsses mans reason

whichever quality be awarded
the palm for usefulness, there is
no question that the two taken
together are greatly more valu-
able than either alone.
But to come to the last and
greatest reason Of all.
Partial suffrage suf-
frage of mel alone-is q denial
of democracy. Democracy will
never be full and complete un-
til every individual in the COM
munity has an equal right to de-
termine how the affairs of the
community shall be managed.
Democracy-the rule of the peo-
ple-is no democracy while half
Of the people are excluded from
the ruling. The United States
is q nation conceived IN liberty,
and dedicated to the proposition
that oil men are created equal"
There is no liberty while women
are free only to be governed and
not to govern. There is no equal
ity which does not include politi-
cal equality-and political equal
ity for all persons regardless Of
sex.

A New Specific for Hog Cholera?

Hh LN" SFSShAS Aoh kAok SAsoACkos
During a recent visit to Che
raw the editor became acquaint-
ed with Mr.. a. 81. Kerr, of
Southern Pines, s. O.. who had
a very interesting story to tell
of q discovery in which he has
great confidence, and which may
prove of value to farmers.
He has discovered by accident
what he believes to be specific
in the prevention of hog cholera.
He says that to his surprise,
there have been several cases
where it seemed TO work cures.
Though Mr.. Kerr is very con-
servative IN his claims, it is evil
dent that he feels certain that
a great discovery has been made
and he ls planning elaborate
tests with utmost confidence of
success.
MIR. Kerr has had 90 years. ex-
perience as hog and cattle raiser
and has made five trips to Kan
sas in the study of methods prac-
ticed there.
1t is to be hoped that his
treatment will prove to be all

1t is not the intention Of the
editor To enter into an argum ent
on this question, but holding
verv decided convictions, lie
herewith briefly sets them forth
On this question as on all others
the columns of The Advertiser
are open to free discussions 50
long as the contributions remain
free from Objectionable state
ments.
Women should vote for four
good and sufficient reasons-and
for one other reason greater than
ell four. And the four reasons
are these:
1t will be good for the women.
1t will be good for the men.
1t will be good for the family.
1t will be good for tile state.
In the first place, then, it will
be good for women to vote-not,
it should be noted, to have the
right to vote, but to vote, for
the suffrage Is not only a priv
ilege but an unescapa BILE obliga-
tion-because it will broaden
their mental and moral horizon.
1t will give them sou ething new
to think about; and there Is no
better, one might almost say no
other, road to intellectual devel-
opment than thinking. 1t will
give them new responsibilities
responsibilities to their neigh
bors, to the community, to the
state. There is no better road
to moral development than the
assumption and the bearing of
responsibility.
In the second place, to have
women vote will be good for
men. 1t will put them on their
mettle, for it would 20 hard with
masculine pride to find the
weaker sex" beating them at
their own traditional task. 1t
will make the men think too.
r For there is no greater incentive
t. clear thinking than, frat, the
necessity of explaining q matter
to an inquiring mind and, Sec
Ond. the need of defending ones
own position in argument. 1t
will sharpen'men's moral respon-
sibility. For women have = way
OF going straight to the heart of
things; and it might be a new
stimulating experience for a
man to have to explain to his
wife, or his mother or mis- daugh-
ter-as fellow voters-just why
he was voting on the side of a
corrupt man or in favor of the
liquor traffic or against the sup.
preston of child labor.
In the third place, the voting
Of women will he good for the
family. 1t will create q new
bond Of union among it's men,
bers. Husband and wife with o
common duty TO the state will
find themselves drawn closer to-
gether. The mother who goes
to the polls with son. the father
who accompanies his daughter to
the performance Of their common
civic task will find q new pleas.
ure in their parenthnod and
new outlook in it's possibilities.
The son who grows up to find his
mother voter, informed on
public affairs aud intelligent to
discuss them, will have q new
appreciation of h m"ther's
companionship, a broadened re-.
epect for womanhood.
In the fourth place, woman
suffrage will be good for the
state. The comment has been
keenly made that the state, like
the family. needs not only a
father but mother Women,
By the very nature of their be-
ing, and of their normal exit
ence, are experts on certain vi
tai subjects. And the state
needs expert knowledge quite as
much as it needs coed intentions

The rains of the past few days have
had some effect on the roads and es-
pecially the state roads, where the
traffic is especially heavy, have been
cut up somewhat, but the county COM
missioners have put men at work drag
ging them, So as to keep them in
shape. Morrison county is becomin g
widely advertised by the fact that she
is building so many good roads. The
action of the commissioners in main
tanning these roads by dragging them
is also gaining much advertising.
