STAMP OUT HLITERACY.

The Herald is devoting consider
able of its space this week to the
very important subject of illiteracy
in South Carolina. The present week
has been designated by the South
Carolina Illiteracy commission as
"write-your-name and it is
hoped that during this week thous-
ands of South Carolinians will be
taught to at least write their names,
instead of having to make their
marks.
South Carolina holds quite dis
tinction in the matter Of illiteracy.
She is at the top of the list in liter
acy-provided you turn the sheet
upside down. The state stands the
highest in percentage of illiteracy
and, therefore, lowest in literacy, in
the United States. The statisticians
say hat the state is even below Porta
Rico in illiteracy percentage.
During this week every person in
South Carolina who can possibly do
So is asked to teach some illiterate
person to write his or her name. There
are in South Carolina thousands Of
white voters who cannot sign their
own names. This is a condition that
ought to command the immediate at
tention of all lovers of Carolina.

JAMES NJ COX, OF OHIO.

The Democratic nominee at San
Francisco, Governor James NJ Cox,
of Ohio, was not the personal prefer
ence Of this writer, although we very
readily concede his strong personali-
ty, and do not doubt the wisdom Of
the Democrats in nominating him.
The principal objection to Governor
Cox on the part of many southern
Democrats was that the liquor inter-
ests centered on him. This appears
to have been thrust upon the nomi-
nee, however, as we understand that
Governor Cox is personally. a prohi-
bitionist. None of the leading candi-
dates, with the exception Of Governor
Edwards, was an outspoken oppo-
nent of prohibition. Inasmuch as it
was seen at first that liquor candi-
date could not be nominated, they
centered upon Governor Cox.
Contrary to the Republican nomi-
nee, Governor Cox is distinctly a man
OF presidential size, and commands
the respect and confidence of Demo-
cratic leaders all over the country.
1t is generally conceded that he is
decidedly the strongest man Of all
the candidates in the great west, and
it is freely predicted that he will car
~ the west against the Republican
nominee, Senator Harding, also an
Ohioan.
Senator Harding was a compromise
candidate at Chicago, while Governor
Cox was strong from the very outset.

through on day different from tne
one on which it really did go through
but Saturday everything was set. he
said that he saw Hart on the morning
of the robbery even before he com
manded Roberts to throw up his
hands, and tied Roberts when Hart
commanded it. The officers claim
that Derrick also told them that the
safe was moved from it's position tc
the door before Hart tied him up.
The express men and the officers
first suspected Derrick because of the
short time in which the holdup was
staged. There was about fifteen min
utes for the bandit to tie up the men
gag and choloroform them, and throw
off the safe and they figured that
unless he had inside help, this was
impossible.
Confronted With Hart.
After his confession to the sheriff
and railroad officers, Derrick was TAX
en- up to Hart, who up to that time
had claimed he knew nothing at all
about it. When Derrick repeated his
statement about the affair before
Hart, the latter said: "For God
sake don't try to implicate me-"
Hart was arrested Friday at the
Rialto theatre after a farmer from
South Carolina, who had been tramp
ing the streets looking for the man
he had met the morning of the rob-
berry saw him go into the moving
picture house. About that time the
officers were around at the express
office on their way to Cotton Row,
where they were to interview a man
who had talked with negro alleged
to have seen the bandit. While there
they got a telephone message saying
that the bandit was at the Rialto, and
hurried around there. At their re-
quest, Manager Creslin Of the theatre
turned on the lights, and Officer Guy
Sturgis nabbed Hart, crouched down
in a seat.
A short time after Hart was arrest
ed Derrick was taken into custody.
The officers knew that Hart and Der
rick were "buddies.'

Superintendent Alderman is in

district. He says work continues on
the mine and that the showing is
satisfactory and good progress is be-
ing made.
The Carmichaels are still busy on
the Alturas cleaning out and retim-
boring old workings. Wilkins is busy
on the Lambertine group, except for

fife.
Kavanaugh is drifting on the so
foot level to pick up the high grade
choot of ore that was found on the
Is foot level, and expects to hit the
Ugh grade in a few more feet.
Alderman says that there is IN
creasing activity among the mines
and one of the biggest flies in the
ointment is the poor wagon road, and
that much more mining work would
he done if the roads were improved.
He thinks the district should now get
some road work on account Of the
long lapse of time since any consider
able amount of work has been done
there. A reasonable amount of mon
ey well spent, he thinks would do
great deal of good and would encour-
age the investment of more money
by the present operators, as wess as
stimulate new investments in the field.

country in reach of that district

GOOD ROADS PRE-

The people of Santa Cruz county
and especially those in Patagonia and

god roads movement inaugurated at
a recent meeting of the Chamber of
Commetce of Nogales. At a mass
meeting to be held in Patagonia with
in few weeks the good road plan
which is being supported by the civic
organizations of the county will be
thoroughly discussed by all residents
of the community and steps taken
for the putting over" of good road
movement in Santa Cruz county which
according to experts will gain for the
county the title of having the finest
system of roads in the state.

Route in tahe northeast corner Of
the county through Patagonia and
