critically i'll at the home of friends
here. The frailities Of her 90 years

FALSE RUMOR ABROAD
Southern Cotton Oil Mill Backs Use
of Calcium Arsenate.

The impression is abroad that the
oil mill will not purchase seed from
farmers who poisoned their cotton.
Whoever started this rumor has alb
solutely no basis for such a state
ment. The Southern Cotton Oil Com
pany is of the opinion that the far
mers of Abbeville County must use
calcium a~rsenate if they are to
produce cotton successfully under
boil weevil conditions and they are
spending thousands of dollars to
demonstrate this to the farmers of
the Southern Cotton States.
The use of calcium arsenate on a
cotton crop has no injurious effect

o SCHOOL BOOKS

1t is the fault of none say the
railroads that the books needed for
the opening of the city schools are
not on hand. Supt. j. D. Fulp gave
Speed Drug Co., the names of the
books to be used, early in July
The books were ordered in July and
practically all of the adopted books
had been shipped by August Is as
the bill of lading shows. The readers,
the most generally used of any one
text were shipped from Philadelphia
August IA, and in normal times
would have reached Abbeville the fol-
lowing week.
School will open in spite of no
books and emergency arrangements
will be made to take are of the
work until the books do come.
No child should feel embarrassed
by coming to school without the
books impossible to get in the city.

Confederate veterans at the fair. He
stated that arrangements would be
made to admit these veterans with
out charge that they may view the
progress of the state they love r.
we'll. "This is a duty that the state
yves her valiant heroes" said Mr..
Cooper, land it will be a distinct
honor to the state fair to have these
men as it's guests. The exhibits this
year will be of such magnitude and
merit as to truly depict the growth,
progress and reso~urcefulness of u
state and none take greater pride in
our advancement than the beloved
gray haired veterans. All honor to
them and may their visit to the state
fair scatter sunshine and tighten
their burdens. I sincerely trust that
every living Confederate veteran will
honor US with his presence. The gates
will swing wide open to him. 'Wel-

For generations Democracy has been the faith of South Caro-
lima. Born in days that tested the hearts of men baptized IN
the fires of war, and purified through shameful years of suf-
fering under the heel of Republican negro rule, 1t is a faith
that every true son and daughter of our soil should boe as
jealous of as honor itself. 1t is our birthright, Dreatned into
US in the wombs of our mothers and mingled with the milk tnat
fed our infancy 1t was the ~birthright of Hampton, Butler, Gary
Tilman and the hosts of lesser men who supported them IN
their struggles. Shall this generation sell it for a mess OF pot
tage?
Cole L. Blease is again a candidate for the office of COVER
nor of the State. 1t is the highest honor in our gift; it is an
honor that should not be given lightly. The governor Oh a
State is as a light set on a high hill, on whom all men Look
seeing in him the spir of the people who put him there.
This spirit is necessary to our very being as a seH-goVern
ing white race. To uphold and keep it pure is a trust that we
hold for the honor and safety of our women. Can we bear that
it should be betrayed? Can we submit that any man who seeks
our office should have stained or trifed with this faith that car
ries our very political freedom at it's core?
Has Cole L. Blease kept this faith of pure Democracy with
out which no man is held worthy of our public offices? Or has
he stained it by dealing with our political enemies who would
weaken the frmness of the white mans government of this
State?
Do we not recall his Allen University negro speech, in which
he told the assembled audience of negroes men and women, to
demand their rights, which he explained in detail to them? DO
not all men remember his bitter abuse of MIR. Wilson during
1917 and 1918? Did he not attempt to run for Congress, in 49,
as an Independent-an individual denounced by Wade Hampton
as worse that a Republican? He said: "Let my friends stay
out of the primary"
There are few Democrats in South Carolina who DO not
know Joseph W. Tolbert. He is the "boss," the overload of Re-
publican patronage, on whom the hands OF Warren j.. HARDING
have been laid in approval and blessing. He is the grver OF
all power, the rule of "The Black and Tan" Is it thinkable
that a. Democrat who has a. heart the good of the party and
people would have any relations with this man in politics!
Cole L. Blease wrote Tolbert, on May FL, 1921, a letter Oh
approval of Tolbert's leadership if the Republican party IN
South Carolina; a letter strongly commencing Toberts years

seemed to be in danger. There was nothing secret noVhlhs
private about the letter. Following his Endorsement OF li-

same interest?

Are the white people of South Carolina, the political heirs
of Hampton and Tilman, prepared to entrust their government
to a man who is the confessed approver' adviser and 0mlor
Of Joe Tolbert, the political heir of the Sealawags and Oarpe'
baggers?

his heart to rejoice with Joe Tolbert, leader and political COM

The Governor of South Carolina is presumed to be the leader
Of the States Democratic forces. Do the people of South Carolina
want to set up a Democracy that is corrupted at its source
These are questions that every loyal Democrat whose love
is for his State should answer honestly at the bar OF MS

NOTRE DAME GROWS
FAMOUS UNIVERSITY n A S
LARGEST ENROLMENT IN ITS
HISTORY - MANY STUDENTS
STILL COMING.

The largest boarding school in the
United States, the University of Notre
Dame, announces the greatest regis
tration of students in it's history. Ac-
cording to figures given out by the
registrar, the number has already
mounted to over LOO, with a pros
pect of several hundred late registra-
lions. These figures, as compared
with the registration of last year, l.
221 students, reveal very encOurag-
ingly the great desire for higher edu-
cation under Catholic influence.
This year marks the passing of the
preparatory school, which for so long
had been considered a necessary ad-
junct of the University. Lack of in
structors and living accommodations
forces the abandonment of this depart
ment and even now facilities are far
inadequate. Approximately thirty new
professors have been added to the
teaching staff, with the likelihood of
more before the end of the first
semester.
The off-Campus registration this
year of students residing in South
Bend and nearby towns approx Inmates
500, taxing downtown accommo dations
to the fullest extent. A temporary
hall to be known as Freshman Hall is
in the course of construction on the
campus, just north of the UniVersity's
famous gymnasium.
Prospects for relief from the crowd
ed conditions are becoming more and
more plainly visible with the further
ance of the 100000 End owment
drive which is to be completed within
the year. Subscriptions so far have
been very encouraging despite, the I'M
settled business conditions of the
present and past year. With the &C
complishment of this project. will be
realized the erection of probably the
greatest Catholic university in the
world.
