Flies and Infantile Paralysis

"Infantile paralysis is catch
ing advises the N. G.. State
Board of Health, "and although
full details of how it is spread
are not fully known, we know
that it may be contracted by
means of secretions from the
nose, throat and mouth and from
bowel discharges. Ifevery case
of the disease were detected at
once and properly cared for, the
disease would soon stop, but in
the case of some individuals the
disease is not recognized at once
and in some not at all. These
are the cases that are particular
ly dangerous.
With open toilets and and 9TH
er possible sources of infection
from this and other diseases the
possibility of grave danger from
the ordinary housefly is force
fully brought to our attention.
The first essential in fighting
the fly is to screen him out not
with extension or other i'll fitting
screens, but close fitting screens
or mosquito netting tackled over
the entire outside of the window.
Nor will screening the down
stairs or a few rooms answer.
Ev cry door and window upstairs
and downstairs should be screen
ed. The residual few that sue
ceed in breaking through these
outer trenches may then be
readily swatted.
Around groceries and stores
where tiles are abundant, fly
traps work very successfully.
OF course the ideal condition
would be, the thorough removal
OF all manure and other breeding
material at least twice a week
in order to prevent future gene.
rations' of flies, but since in
practice this is not always done,
thorough screening is to be
recommended as the best single
agency against the fly danger.

Fight at Bear Creek

Patrick, Aug. 16.-As the re-
suit of a free-for-all fight at Bear
Creek school house five
miles west of Patrick Tuesday,
P. w. D. Mclean was sent to
the hospital at Hamlet, N. c.,
on the afternoon train with three
severe knife wounds, one in the
left breast and two in the back.
w. D. Jones suffered broken
nose and other bruises and sew
eral other participants received
minor wounds.
The patrons of the school
had met to decide on a location
for a new school building. 1t
seems there was some i'll feeling
between those who recently
voted in favor of a bond issue
and those opposing it, but the
immediate cause of the Difficult
ty appears to have come from a
dispute and the passing of Sc
we're words between G. E. Nc
Lean, who is a son of P. w. D.
Mclean, and Frank Jones, when
on their way home from church
Monday night, the fathers being
drawn into the difficulty when
they met at the school house

Senate Passes Ship Bill After
Bitter Contest

Washington, Aug. 1S.-The
Government shipping bill pass
ed the Senate tonight by vote
of 3S to 21, ending one of the
most bitterly contested legisia<
tive struggles of the Wilson Ad-
ministration. In the last Con-
gress the measure precipitated a
Democratic revolt and filibus-
ter which forced postponement
OF many important bills, but re.
vlsed so as to minimize the Gov
ernment operation feature, re-
celved today unanimous Demo.
cratic support and solid Repub-
lican opposition. 1t already had
passed the House.
The shipping bill provides for
creation of Government ship
ping board to acquire and oper-
ate for rehabilitation of the
American merchant marine and
appropriates $5O,0OO,OOO for the
purpose to be raised by the sale
of Panama Canal bonds.
Several important amend
ments were agreed to just before
the final vote, among them one
would reduce the salary of the
shipping board members from
$4,000 to $500 a year. Other
amendments passed included
one which would authorize the
President to seek adjustment of
foreign discrimination against
American shipping through dip
lomatic negotiations and to take
retaliatory action if such negoti-
tionS fail. Another would au-
thorize the Treasury to with
hold clearance from masters of
vessels who deliberately refuse
to accept freight from American
citizens without satisfactory rea-
sons.

Looks Like Second Race Be.
tween Manning and Blease

Looks Like Second Race Be-
tween Manning and Blease
Columbia, S. G. Aug. 19-Ten
DAYS before the primary election
in South Carolina there is every
indication that there will be a
second race between Richard I.
Manning, incumbent and G.. L.
Blease, former Governor for
Governor of the State. This
prediction made two weeks ago
caused a storm OF protest on the
part Of the press of the State sup
porting Robert a. Cooper.
However, every fact connected
with the situation would indi-
cate that the present Governor
and the former Governor will
tight 1T out IN a second primary.
1t has been the custom in
South Carolina to grant Govern.
ors two terms. No man has
ever been elected Governor a
third term and this fact will lose
many. votes to Mr.. Blease, who
1t must be said has been con-
ducting his campaign this year
on a much different basis as
compared with previous efforts.
Mr.. Manning has been stand
ing squarely on his record and
has not assailed any of his oppo-
nents in bitter language. The
Governor firmly believes that
the people of the State will not
repudiate his program of progress
sive legislation. He will 90 in.
to the election with all the facts
known by the people and will
depend on their good judgement.
Robert A. Cooper of Laurens
is clean and good man. One
of his ardent admirers said not
long ago: Bob Cooper is as
clean as a hounds TOOTH" He
may be the choice of the people
at some date not far distant.
AS the election time draws
nearer the people IN all sections
of the State are beginning to
realize that Manning is the man
most likely to defeat Blease seism
in South Carolina. No matter
what some may say Blease is
still an issue in South Carolina
politics. He will always be more
or less an issue. Or rather his
record as the chief executive of
the State will always be an issue.
During the past week at least
two candidates have declared
against the policies of govern
ment as expounded by Mr.
Blease. One of these men was
Mr.. Cooper.
Practically every fair minded
man in South Carolina will
agree that Mr.. Manning has
made good Governor. His
record is open to the world.
Nothing has been concealed.
There has been no secret align
ments between the Governor
and corporations. In fact a
great majority of the bankers of
the State are fighting Mr.. Man
ming simply because he is trying
to apply just and equitable tax
law to the banking institutions.
Governor Manning has given
much of his time and attention
to laws that will benefit the
great mass of mill workers in
South Carolina. He urged the
passage and approved the week
ly paw act. He approved the
anti-docking law. During Gov
ernor Manning's administration
a law has been passed to prevent
