A Few Quotations From

States Rights.-"Because I stand

identical words of Calhoun, because

the identical principle for which my
father fought in the 60's-the doc

posals which concern Labor. The in
sidious impression that Labor in pol

very properly resented by both Labor
and those who seek its vote. 1t does
not ask discrimination in favor Of
Labor, but rather that 1t be not dis
criminated against My attitude may
be summarized by the words, Fair

Farming Interests-"I endorse the
organization, activities and accom-
plshments Of the American Cotton

interests in ten years."-S. G. Cotton

WARREN FOR SENATOR.
George Warren, of Hampton, has
been growing in popular favor since
his entry into the race for the United
States Senate.
A few weeks ago the prediction
was freely indulged that Senator
Smith would defeat his three oppo-
nents In the first race.
Now 1t Is generally conceded that
there will be a second race, and that
George Warren will be in it.
In a second race with Senator
Smith, the advantages will be with
Warren.
The boasted Smith strength is fast
dwindling away. 1t has largely been
a myth.
Not all the farmers are Smith men.
This Is the day of the young man.
Warren Is young, but he has rec
ord Of achievement behind him
Smith Is no longer young, but
there Is little to which he can point
despite his long years In the United
States Senate, as his accomplishment
STATES RIGHTS.
There can be no doubt but that
even the casual student OF political
history can detect that the Federal
government Is steadily infringing
upon States rights. Particular in
stances are pointed out by Mr.. War
rem. candidate for the United States
Senate. We are among those who do
not like this idea. The States should
be free to regulate their own affairs.
The nineteenth amendment OF the
Constitution OF the United States
stands mighty good opportunity OF
becoming operative. Only one more
state Is required to ratfy the wo-
mans suffrage amendment. and the
Governor Of Tennessee has called
special session Of the Legislature in
his State, which will consider this
amendment. If Tennessee ratifies the
nineteenth amendment then we will
have woman's suffrage. and the indi-
vidual States cannot help themselves.
We believe each State should be al
lowed to regulate this matter inde-
pendent Of the Federal government.
II the people Of this State want wo-
man suffrage. they should be allowed
to adopt 1T for themselves. If they
are opposed to it they should not
have 1t thurst upon them In various
ways the Federal government Is in
fringing upon States rights and the
tendency in this direction should be
checked.-The Watcree Messenger.
THE COLUMBIA RECORD SAID:
"The manly conduct of George
Warren, OF Hampton, must commend
itself to the people Of South Carolina.
The generous conduct which he has
displayed will merit for him the re-
spect and the appreciation OF the peo-
pie OF his State"

Campaign to Eliminate the Poor Pro-
ducing Hens Opened Aug. I.
1t is safe to say that fully 25 to
80 per cent Of the hens which make
up the farm flock Of poultry do not
lay enough eggs to pay for the feed
they consume. Many hens are kent
from three to five years on the farm,
and such individuals are always a
loss to their owner. BY keeping the
best layers and culling out the poor
producers Il greater profit will be de-
rived from the farm flock. Again,
eggs will be hatched from only the
heavy layers, and this will have a
tendency to increase the laying quail
tiles OF the next generation. BY dis
posing Of all the inferior hens dur
Ing the fall, sufficient room is pro-
Vided for this years young stock.
This will allow them more housing
space, and the health of the flock will
be increased, thus causing greater
egg production.
The County Home Demonstration
Agent Of Oconec is planning poul-
try culling campaign with the help
OF J. NJ. liughs, Of Richland. A meet
ing will be held with the Bounty
Land Club, at tho home of Mrs.
Clarkson. Friday afternoon, Aug. 6,
at O'Clock. 1t is hoped that all who
are interested will make a special eff
fort to be present.
The Home Demonstrate Agent is
planning to hold culling demon
stration with each home demonstra-
ton club in the county. For addi-
tional information and government
literature on the subject, get in COM

OUR COUNTRY.

One of the South Carolina candi-
dates for the United States Senate
this year Is calling the attention of
our people to one Of the most vital
Issues that confronts the American
people to-day.
1t Is the issue Of States rights
against centralized Federal govern
ment.
State sovereignty Is absolutely
necessary to protect the rights and
liberties OF the people under our
form OF government The founders
OF this republic so recognized 1t and
1t Is apparent now.
NO one will deny that our govern
ment Is becoming more centralized
In Washington.
The sovereignty Of the States Is
gradually being undermined and ta-
ken away.
A continuance Of this practice will
inevitably and absolutely lead to an
autocracy in this country
VIII you sit passiyely by and sur
render what liberties you have left
or those your forefathers fought. suf-
fered and died to obtain for you and
turn your children over to an auto
cratic government?
If we surrender these liberties
our children can only regain them
by revolution.
We say the Capitalization Of our
government has gone far enough.
Let us put a stop to 1t by a peace
ful use OF our ballots rather than to
have our children stop it by a reyolu-
ton. Tho Easley Progress.
George Warren is going to be very
much in the running for United
States Senate. His doctrine Of States
Rights Is proving very popular. 1t Is
argued against him that he is in
favor OF whiskey, while as matter
Of fact he Is the author OF the present
prohibition laws on the Statutes of
the State.-Anderson Daily Mail.
THE WAITEROBRO PRESS AND
STANDARD.
Showing that he possesses a high
degree OF honor, George Warren will
be called up higher, and that soon."'

THE PHILOSOPHY OF INVESTIGATIONS.

The investigation OF the shipping board with
It's attendant disclosures Of graft and proflIEacy
does not afford pleasant reading, nor does Il
tend directly to encourage patriotic devotion to
the government. But It ia an unpleasant dury
that must be performed.
It win probably add nothing TO the popularity
OF the republican congress 20 delve into the
sordid mass of iniquity that has been kept from
the public eye. but It Ia imporativoly essential
that the public shall be advised OF tho condl-
tions which prevailed throughout the conduct
Of the war and that positive criminalty shall bs
made to suffer. The very perpetuity OF popular
government depends on such result,
It will be recalled that the administration biz.
terly rejected the proposal of congress 'hnt
committee bipartisan in it's composition be
created for the purpose OF supervising the ex-
pendlture OF the fabulous sums OF money con-.

CHAPTER XII.
barbara Is Anxious Because Nell Is
Drinking,


When Neil came hume to dinner |
saw at once that his mood had
changed, He was almost uproari-
ously happy. That he had been
drinking was obvious, yet he seemed
not at all olatcd because OF that.
but on account of something deeper
more permanent
was tingling with resentment.
lie had spent hours, the day before,
calling on Blanche -Orton; how did
l know that he had not been there
again this afternoon? He ate very
little dinner. but emptied his glass
several times. And he talked, ,alkcd
gaily. as "a person talks when some
thing which has caused them anx-
lcty, is done with.
When | begged him not to drink
any more. he became repentant, and
pushed his glass away. Then, as We
slipped our coffee, he told me n
little--just enough to give me hint
as to the cause of his troubled ac-
tons OF the past few days.
'"Tha. damned Scott thought he
was mighty smart" he said. apropos
OF nothing. | fairly held my breath.
hoping he would go on.
what did he do?" l could walt
no longer.
Tried to bluff met He ran up
against the wrong fellow, | can tell
you. Got cold feet aud tried to make
trouble for me. But headed him Off

show him he can't fool with me-"
His voice was strident, loud.
What did he want TO get rid Of
IT for?'
said it wasn't worth the paper
II was written on. or some such
thing, Tried 20 queer me with Fred
eri'k, too. But he fell down there.
Frederick stood pat"
turned cold with dread Mr..
Frederick had a motive in telling
nae he would be my friend. Had no
already proven n friend? Had he
stood pat" as Ner had said, be-
cause OF his trlcndship---for me?
'Whrrc--who took his stock 2" I
asked, MIR Frederick pc
No, what made you think It was
