The statement in the Empire on Friday evening that Mrs. Maurice s. Whittier expected to leave for her home soon was an error. The article should have stated that Mrs Whittier is improving although yet in a ser ious condition from typhoid fever Dr. Sloane who has charge of the case reports that in his opinion the crisis has been passed and that Improve ment will probably be steady from now on.

Anarchy prevails

Mexico has seen naught but anarchy Anarchy prevails
there today-anarchy and wholesale brgandage
Argue as we may against the idea of intervention the
TACT is daily becoming apparent that it is the only
solution That enlightened America should sit idly by
and make no effort to remedy the ntoerabe state Of
atans ana prevailing there, is inconceivabe Mexico is
plot on the Western civilization and only Western civil
llzation that blot
Of course every American wishes that the redemption
Of Mexico may be accomplished by peaceabe means if
possible But the progress being made in that direction
appears to the average mind negligible. The matter
seems no nearer solution today than it did fifty years
ago.
From the days of President Buchanan until TODAY,
every president has had the difficulties to contend
with there Each has had his vexng 'Mexcan question"
and 1T is remarkable how similar have been the circm
stances that each has had to face.
NOT only the present generation but the unborn gen
craons of the future Of that unhappy land demand of
us that we confer upon them of the blessings that
our forabears bequeathed to us.
Twenty years ago Cuba in as pitiable condition
as Mexico is today We have remade and rehabitated
her ana today she enjoying that peace and prosperity
which her natural advantages merit.
We can do the same for unhappy Mexico We shou1d
do the same for her. But will we do it?

WILL AMERICA REDEEM MEXICO?

Now that the eleco ion is and Mr. Wilson has been
entrusted with the re of government for another four
years. there is one piece of work that will forciby de-
mand his attention. and that is the paccaon of Mexico
we are well aware that the Mexican problem presents
But they are difficulties that may and be overcome
and as time goes on it becomes and more apparent
That 1t is up to the United States to them.
The truth OF the whole matter is that Mexico is suf-
ferng from the same msrule from which freed Cuba
the decadent Spanish rule
Mexico is republic only in name Not the first prin-
cpe of popular rule has prevailed in that country
The forces that have always controlled her destiny have
been those bequeahed by Spain With misrule and op
preston on the one hand and suen hatred and resent
ment on the other it is smsa wonder that she has been
IN perpetual state of unrest and turbulence.

ever maintained sembance of order, and he did so
solely by the Of the mailed hand Since his day poor

COMMUNICATED.
Editor Manning Times:

Editor Manning Times:
One Of the most pointed sermons
have ever heard by a colored
preacher was the sermon delivered on
Temperance" by Rev. A. w. Tim
mons in the African M. E. Church
last Sunday morning.
The preacher made trade against
liquor drinkers and the effect of his
sermon was felt, as it seemed, by
every person in the congregation. The
argument was pointed and pcrsua
slve ana served as a dynamite to blind
tigers If there be anv in our town
of churches and church goers.
This preacher declared it was "bad
enough to drink whiskey, a gallon of
it each month, but it is still worse
to know, or believe that many church
people are selling it," He pied with
the church people TO- not only live
clean. sober life but to ioin the
moral forces to stop the illegal
traffic, thus helping to make better
the community and render more SER
vice to the Almighty.
At the end Of the services pledge
was taken and nearly every man and
woman in the congregation caught
the minister's hand, pledging that
they would not drink any whiskey
during the Christmas season.
If every negro preacher in Clar-
endon County could have thought
about delivering such a sermon from
his pulpit last Sunday 1t would, have
been worth $4,000 to our people.
From casual observation it Is safe
to say That 81 900 a week Is spent by
ug each week in this County for
whiskey. Think about it. One thou

TOO MANY MIDDLE MEN.

Says leading southern agricultural paper:
"fifteen just plain Mississippi farmers got together
wthohut any frls and shipped car load of very ordi-
nary hogs to ST. Louis getting high as ten cents
pound live weight for them.'
This item tells tale that should be of deep interest to
every farmer who has anything to SELL
Why should it be thought necessary that every thing
produced on the farms of country should 90 through
the hands OF half dozen middle before it reaches
the consumer?

object has the Associated
Charities is another frequent query.
It is the people OF FL Paso organized
for helpfulness- One man has said:
ORGANIZED charity IS organized love"
The citizens who are behind this recent
organization. the Associated Charities,
believe that in destination there is
nothing normal and that when a man
or family are in need, every effort
should be made to put them beyond
the need of accepting help again Des-
titutiOn is due to a complication OF
causes which are in many instances re-

American Embroidery Is
Drifting the Swiss Make
From Markets OF u. S.

Berne Switzerland. Aug. es.-That
the Swiss embroidery trade is more
and more losing its American market
appears from recently published
figures. While IN 1907 the value Of
Swiss embroidery exported TO the
United States was 100000 francs. it
fell to SO.o00.0o in 1914 and 10 2s.oo0.-
600 in 1915. The decrease is attributed
to increased American production
In the last decade Swiss embroidery
expectation TO England increased from

total Swiss expectation since 1895 is
valued at over 100000 francs
