COOPER SUPPORTS MANNING.
Says He Can Best Serve His State by
Aiding Governors Reelection.

Mr.. Cooper's statement, issued
from his home in Laurens, is as fol-
lows:
Il am deeply grateful to the many
friends in all sections of the State
who gave me their support in Tues
days primary. Notwithstanding the
loyal support Of true and tried
friends, 1 have been defeated and the
second primary will be had with Gov.
Manning and Former Gov. Blease as
contestants. Among those who gave
me their support are former sup
porters of these two gentlemen and
I am not unmindful of their prefer
ences.
Il recognize the right of every
citizen to cast his ballot for the man
of his choice. I know, too, that
have some friends who think should
make no statement at all at this
time and 1 respect their judgment
highly. But I cannot and do not pro-
pose to evade stand for what I con-
ceive to be the best interest of my
State. Without attempting to give
my reasons in detail, l believe I can
best serve my State at this time by
supporting Gov. Manning. A man in
public life should act according to
the dictates of his conscience and
judgment without regard to the effect
which his course may have upon his
personal political fortune and should
also forget any wrong which may
have been done him when what he
conceives to be his duty to his State
is at stake.
81 do not presume to dictate to
the friends who voted for me. They
have sovereign right to their bal
lot. I make this statement as to my
self for the reasons set forth above,
and, further, that 1 may not be ac-
cused of political cowardice or of
sulking in my tent

This Get-Rich-Quick Scheme Worked.

Zone often hears Of persons get
ting rich overnight, but such cases
rarely bear the light of investiga-
tion," said L. l.. Grimes, of Steuben-
vile, Ohio, cashier of bank in that
city, to the Washington Post. MANY
times I have heard of instances of
men getting rich suddenly, but I
never knew a case to come under my
personal observation until very re-
Gently. The whole of Steubenville is
excited about this case.
''About four years ago, when there
was some ground for belief that oil
could be found in the vicinity of
Steubenville, an oil company was
found and stock was sold to raise
money for drilling wells. The pro-
motors drilled two wells, only to find
they were 'dusters.' Then the presi-
dent of the company decided he
would take the balance of the COM
pany's funds and go to Oklahoma and
wildcat it.
''It hadn't been long until those
interested back home were told that
the lands purchased with the COM
pany's funds were very promising.
Oil was struck and finally enormous
wells developed. Several thousand
acres were purchased with the earn
ings, and just short time ago the
company sold out its holdings to a
syndicate for s12,000,000.
''For every share of stock worth
at par $125 sold in Steubenville four
years before the owners drew down
100000 in cash. I had one friend
who invested enough in the original
company to make his share of the
recent sale close to $1,000,000, and
his original investment did not reach
$1,000. This man bought shares for
his wife, his two daughters and him
self, and now all of them are rich.
In addition to the sum they received
for their stock, they had drawn last
year and for some months before
dividends approximating $4,000 a
year, and they still have an interest
in 100000 barrels of oil that are
stored in Oklahoma that were not in
cluded in this sale.''

Care in Making Cannon.

The field gun proper is made of
nickel steel, of about 10000 pounds
per square inch tensile strength. The
inspection and specifications for the
forgings are most rigid and the
slightest flaw developing at any stage
of manufacture is usually sufficient
cause for rejecting the forging, or
for special proof firing with excessive

Reaching the depot we found our
train ready; box cars with cab or
conductors car attached to rear for
field and staff. In the car very COM
fortably seated was Major Gen. Gus
tavus w. Smith, who was on his way
from Florida out West and wanted
to catch the first train, which was
ours. He introduced himself, apollo
gized for intrusion, said he had seen
the colonel hastily leave the depot,
learned of his refusal to take the
open train and had "advised Capt.
Mercer to make up this train" He
remarked, jocosely. Colonel, you
must be anticipating the pleasure
your men will derive in voting for
you for congress after the war;
We were soon en- route to the
front in the west, where many a gal
liant fellow who had stood in line
awaiting the making up of the box
car train ensanguined with his life's
blood the soil of the fields of our
conflicts.
The soldiers had witnessed the
difficulty in procuring sheltering cars
for them and they blamed the rail-
way authorities. AS our train lum-
bered along through the darkness of
night the crowded cars became very
uncomfortable from want of ventila-
ton. On reaching Atlanta that
about two dozen cars carrying the
ten companies of the regiment had
from three to four windows per car,
