h- our rlcn on and anil sra.
and express our utmost conf
dence in their effective endurance
to victorious end.
5th- We express our unboundcd
admiration for the heroic deeds and
endurance CT our country's noi'le
allies who have borne with such
splendid fortitude and courage the
horrors and brutalities of a war
forced upon them, as upon US, by
a ruthless and infamous foe.
9th We most heartily favor the
prosecution of the war to victo-
rious peace, by which the world shall
be made safe for democracy and hu-
manity.
The following resolutions were
introduced by A. E. Padgett:
Whereas, our honorable fellow cit
izen, Hon. B. R. Tillman, has con
sented to allow himself to be drafted
as a candidate to succeed himself
to the United States Senate; and
Whereas, his eminent and distin-
guished public services for our
State, and in the greatest legislative
body in the world, have been con-
spicuous for the education of the
masses, both girls and boys, and the
development of individuality in our
citizenship in thought and judg-
ment concerning public matters, and
he has filled with credit and honor
to our State, and great advantage to
our nation the high and responsible
position of Chairman of the Naval
Committee of the Senate, and has
favored a strict enforcement Of In
ternational Law and the protection
of our rights Hereunder and all
legislation promotive of the welfare
of mankind and the natural inter-
most urgent.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE 1T RE-
SOLVED BY THE DEMOCRATS
OF EDGEFIELD COUNTY IN CON-
VENTION ASSEMBLED:
First: That in these times of
stress and peril this country can i'll
afford to be deprived of Senator
Tillman's rare knowledge and ma
ture judgment in government af-
fairs as our need of the same is now
is most urgent.
Second: That if a new man be
elected to the Senate this State Will
lose one of the most important and
powerful Chairmanships of that
body, that of the navy, and with II
the prestige that may not come to US
again for century; and new man
could not possibly exert the influ-
ence and do as much for the boys at
the front and for our own people at
home, for years to ccme, as our
present senior Senator. who has been
tried and fourd to be safe and in tho
rough accord with Woodrow Will
son and his war policies.
Third: That we call upon the
whole people of the State to return
him to the position that his able ser
vices have adorned and keep him
there to carry forward and complete
his work for his people and our ma
ton.

From a condition from which he
suffered so that he mad to be helped

Kossuth ST., New York, was chang
ed into vigorous man could walk
miles without having pains.
Because of this remarkable bsne-
fit, Mr.. Rogers said, Il praise Tan
lac above all medicines, because,
as he publicly stated, Tanlac
worked the change"
Mr.. Rogers Statement is so inter-
estingand holds sucn encouragement
for others that is given word for

pains so bad that / often had to be
helped when l walked across the

Il will say right here" he con-
tinued, that rheumatism and stom-
ach trouble are about the worst
things a man can have. had pains
down my legs and through my
body. l had to sit down for hours,
but this only gave me little re-
lief.
''I tried many medicines, but not
one of them seemed to do me a par
ticle of good. / kept hearing such
good reports from people of what
Taniac was doing for others that l
decided to give it trial. The first
bottle gave me some relief from
those dreadful pains in my legs and
back.
AS l kept on with Tanlac / be-
gan to feel like a new man. The
pains passed away, / could 60 any

miles by myself. You can imagine
how / felt to finally find medi-

ALL MADE EQUAL BY DEATH
No Democracy Ever Conceived Is at All Comparable to That of
 the Tomb.

In the democracy of the dead all men at last are equal There is neither rank uor station por prrrogative in the republic of the grave. At this fatal threshold the philosopher ceases to be wise, and the song of the poet is si- lent Dives relnqrisheS his millions and Lazarus his rags. The poor man Is as rich as the richest, and the rich man is aS poor as the pauper. The creditor loses his usury and the. debtor Is acquitted of his obligation. There the proud man surrtnders his digni- ties, the politician his honors, the wording his pleasures: the invalid needs no physician. and the laborer rests from ulrequited t0rt.
 Hare, ut last is nuture'S final de cree In equity. The wrongs of time are redresSed. Injustice is expiated, the irony of fate Is refuted; the un- equal distribution of wealth. honor, ca pacity, pleasure and opportunity which makes life such a cruel and inexplic- able tragedy, ceases 'n the realm of death. The strongest there has no su- premacy, and the weakest needs no defense. The mightiest captain sue cunlbs to that invincible adversary who disarms alike the victor and the vanquished.-John J. Ingalls,.

Earthduake Statistics.

It has been calculated that there oc. cur about 30.000 earthquakes within year, pr S,760 hours, hence, that there are on the average three and one-half earthquakes In an hour. Fortunately, not all earthquakes are of violent na- ture, like that of A D. 5"f that killed from 10000 10 100000 persons In the region of the Mediterranean. or that of 1693, to which 60,OO0 persons fell victims in Sicily, or of Lisbon in 1755. and those that devastated Chile, Peru and Japan Of great frequency are the minor earthquakes. In fact, our so-t lied firm earth can be said to be in state of perpetual agitation. Our senses do not perceive the slight dls. turbances, but the seismograph, a very delicate and ingenious apparatus de vised to keep track of them, furnishes all the information denied to us by our natural insensibllity. They often fur nish US too much of 1t in the excess of their zeal, recording sometimes as seismic phenomena vibrations that later proved to have been due to the ringing of church bells.

SLEPT WHILE GUNS R0ARED
ing Nap on a Hillside During Pickett's Charge.

In the campaigns of both Antietam and Gettysburg I was an officer in a regiment of cavalry, mere subor- dinate, responsible only for obedience to orders.
 At Gettysburg July the division to which we belonged occupied the high, partly wooded ground on the right of the line, covering the enemy's flank and rear. It was a bright July day, hot, and with white clouds slowly roll ing across the sky. Neither our lines nor those of the enemy were visible to us; and the sounds of battle were hushed. Waiting for orders and for action, we dlsmounted, out of regard for our horses as well as for ourselves, and sat or lay on the turf.
 Inured to danger by contact long ond close and thoroughly tired in body and overwrought in mind we listened for the battle to begin; and shortly after noon the artillery opened. We did not know 1t, for we could see nothing in that direction, but 1t covered the fa- nous advance of Pickett's Virginia d. vision upon Meade's center-that wonderful feat of arms-and just then, lulled by the incessant roar of the cannon. while the fate of the army and the nation trembled in the balance, at the very crisis of the great conflict, dropped quietly asleep. It was not heroic, but it was essentially war.-From the Autobiography of Charles Francis Adams.

Pick and Shovel important.

When the American infantryman
landed in France, particularly those
who had not been taught modern
methods of trench warfare before
leaving the States, and was handed a
pick and shovel to be included in his
fighting equipment he was astonished
ut first. But the young man was adept
at learning, even with pick and
shovel, although many of them at
home had been clerks and held SINH
lar positions, and now those tools are
the most highly priced of all.

New York.--To the lnyman, II may
appear that the excitement In new
clothes dies down about Thanksgiving

fashion authority, and to those who
follow the movements of the trade,
this Is far from a dull season.
The American designers have acted
quite cleverly during the last two
years. They use the tactics of Mar.
shall Foch. They do not let any Sec
tor OF the long line Of apparel rest
serene from attack, and while they do
not make grand offensive, except
twice9a year. they disturb parts OF
the line at frequent intervals.
When the sector of skirts seems set.
tied into comfortable quarters, they
drive In wedge and change the sill.
houette or the treatment of detail suf-
6ciently to make the public perk up
wIthninterest.
When the condition In jackets mp.
pears to be well settled in trenches
they destroy the serenity by throwing
over grenndes which break up the line,
change the arrangement of the neck,
and shorten the length.
They do not cease from troubling,
BY this constant maneuvering for sur.
prise, they keep the public from los
Ing interest In the Industrial battle.
Their patrols are constantly going
