FoRO's LATEST EXPLOIT

Henry Ncrd is Napoleonic in al
ways dcing the unexpected. If Ma
poleon had been possessed with Henry
Ford's wad of cash he wouldn't have
conquered the whole world and rest
of mankind. Those British money
levers would have fallen dead at the
very thought of his prodigious pile.
The Wall Street Journal made a state.
ment some time ago that Henry Ford's
wealth was estimated at $4,000, 900 900
and that he is the richest man in the
world.
Now it transpires that Ford, already
monarch of all he surveys in the auto
mobile world, is looking out for new
worlds to conquer. Several years
ago he bought railnoad running
from Detroit through Ohio. But the
most remarkable thing about the
transaction was that the railroad was
irretrievably to put down freight rates
and advance wages. Railroad officials
demanded that he be restrained and
the complaint railroad commission re-
fused to allow the reduction.
There have been various rumors
subse quentil that he has bought other
railroads. At every such runner the
railToad officials would take the blind
3taggers and the people on the other
hand would pluck up that really
modern business methods would
now be put into the management of
railroads. Most roads are run to
pour water into their stocks to make
new dividends. They did not want
Henry Ford as competitor in long
lines of railroads. He is too monu-
mental success to suit their way of
and doing.
Some months ago it was repcrted
hat Ford has acquired control of the
Seaboard Air Line about the time that
the dicker was on for Muscel Shoals
Now it is rum3red that his latest ac

bash. Control of the Wabash would
give line from Omaha and Kansas
City into Toledo. And from there to
Buffalo the road has trackage rights
with another road. The ownership O
Virginia would probably result in the
extension OF the Detroit and Ironioi
from Toledo to Virginia tidewater.

POLITICS AND NEWSPAPERS

The esteemed Thomasville Time
discussing politics gene
illy, very eagerly remarks:
The newspapers have been
ridden by politicians in the past
to the tune OF millions OF dollars
but many Of them have become
tiI6d Of the process. Even the
most amateGrish ppilticians o3
the day know enough to distin-
guish readily and distinctly be-
tween real legitimate campaign
news and POLITICAL advertising.
1t has been the idea. even in this
shcrt campaign for candidates to
give their own ideas and opinions
and positions on various questions
for the purpose Of winning votes,
Many have been submitted to
us which had no real news value
except f3r the individuals profit.
They were in the main, conter-
tions for votes. They did not
contain pla torn ideas or any
sufficient Q: definite statement to
convince voters how the candi-
date ST ID on any important issue
OF nat t.onal democracy, but merely
clever and adroitly worded ap-
peals for votes. Such things are
not being used by the newspapers,
except those WHO are making ali
efforts to cuYy favor with the can
didates.
1t costs entirely too much mon
ey TO run for office in this state,
but it likewise cost much in any
state. The sky is the limit as far
as the Senate is concerned, as Mr..
Newberry has taken pains to
prove None Of the candidates
at the present time have had
much money to spend, probably
did have it if they would have
done it. They have no crouch,
however, if the nespapers failed
to support them by printing all
the stuff they have sent out of
purely partisan nature. News is
news and likewise advertising is
just that. The two are different
and distinction should be drawn
in all matters, not only Of politics
but otherwise if newspapers are to
live and pay debts.

$3.50, ,ooo,ooo INVESTED IN SOUTH
ERN COTTON MILLS.

The South now has $3.50, 100000 in
vested in cctton mills, which con-
sumed last year 3,733,000 bales as
compared with 2,t7S,000 bales for the
rest of the country. says the Manu-
faCturers Record.
The development of this industry
from 1S0 mills in 1880 with $21 ,976000
capital, to $40 mills with $850,000000
capital is one Of the romances Of
American industry.
The Southern c1tton mill has been
q great missionary to the operatives,
who before the coming Of the mill
were without employment. These
mills have cleated profitable employ
ment they have inspired with new
life not only their operatives but mil
lions Of others. In proportion to the
wealth and the newness of this indus
try they have done more for the
educational, religious and moral ad

and rented them at normal cost.
The operatives in these mills are
mostly natives Americans of purest
Anglo-Saxon stock in the world They
have developed an initiative and self
reliance and ability to do expert WORK
which makes them preemenintly to-
day the greatest potential power for
cotton mill advancement to be found
in this or any other country.
Following the cotton mills will come
textile machinery plants and a yafied

A LESSON FOR WOMEN

We are regretful that we have not
the time to stage this tariff lesson
geographically speaking little more
closely home. But let the rest of the
declaration that it comes from a
state that is as full of republicans
as China is chinks. If YOU are a
woman who wanted a change when
the Democrats came out of the war

seething, fomenting furnace of un.
rest and ready to do something des-
perate at the pClls-if you are a
woman who failed to understand
how completely popular government
has been surrendered in this country
into the hands of the money masters
we want to try to cure it with a
shopping lesson. We do so on the
assumption that women are so nearly
akin to men that when you touch their
pocket books you touch their hearts
One does not have to read news
paper articles or dissertations of ex-
ports in economics to get the drift of
things under the new Fordney-M Nc
Cunber tariff law. The law being
now in operation the question as
sumes the practical form which its
farmers and supporters intended.
1t has already begun to yield its an
ticirated and d sired practical re-
suits An advertisement published by
the enterprising merchant of Johns
town, Pennsylvania, who appeals to
his customers is patronize a special
linen sale which offers the last
chance for the ladies Of Johnstown
10 purchase linen at pre- tariff prices
mab,s this observation pertinent
and at the same time establishes the
fact that this merchant has heart.
The price Of cerain goods is give n
at $40. The price which he will be
compelled to charge as a result Of
the new tariff he states will be S14.-
so. Another article which he offers
at $375 will sell at $3.50 when the
new tax is added. He offers still an
other article at $3.50, which after
the recent action of the Republican
Senate in giving the profiteers their
new boost in protection will be
sold at $7.00. Thus a bill amounting
to $18.25 for household linen nee
cessities will be increased by $S.75
as soon as the p,.e2s imposed by
the new tariff come into vogue.
We do MT know the politics of this
merchant Il makes no difference.
Possibly, like thousands of others he
may ba a Republican in name and
Democrat in fact, but it is perfect
" clear that he knows what the eff
feet OF the law is to be- The baneful
consequences + its passage in tax
ing the American home for the bene-
fit Of the brief period of lower prices.
This incident, the lesson of which
will soon be learned in every com
munity in the land, chinches the fact
that we need a Democratic admins
tration to provide a tariff law in
which the interests of common folks
are taken into consideration. The
present legislative monstrosity De-
mocrats are pledged to wipe from
the books. A good start for the goal
will be made by returning Demo-
cratic House IN November. Every
home and every woman in America
is interested.

Destroy Cotton
Stalks at Once

Clemson College, Oct. 20--Clean-
ing of the fields, the destruction OF
the stalks, and the planting OF cover
crops constitute the most powerful
weapons for weevil fighting now in
the hands of the farmers, says Prof.
A. F. Conrad, Entomologist, who
says that by efficient fall farm man
agement the farmer can dictate to
great extent how many weevils shall
pass the winter on his farm.
Though much warning has already
been given by the entomologists, and
though county agents are preaching
stalk destruction right and left'
many farmers are apparently not
convinced of the need for immediate
stalk destruction, says Prof. Conrad,
and do not realize that this is prac-
tically the most important single
step in any system of fighting the
weevil.
I Boil weevils multiply in cotton un-
til frost kills it. Many thousands OF
weevils may occur in each acre OF
cotton. Weevils hibernate, that is
they pass the winter, only in the full
grown stage. Hibernation usually be-
gins with the coming Of the first
killing frost. They hibernate princl-
pally in cotton fields, and standing
stalks make for them splendid win
ter homes.
The most favorable condition,
therefore, for the successful hiberna-
tion for boil weevils is found IN
fields were the cotton stalks, grass
weeds, dead leaves, etc., are left dur
ing the winter. Under such cond1-
tions the farmers may expect the
greatest number of weevils to sur
vive the winter. There is little pros
pect for successful cotton growing
under such conditions.
The earlier the cotton stalks are
destroyed, the fewer the weevils that
will survive the winter, and conse-
uuently the smaller the damage to
the next crop. AS far as possible,
stalks should be destroyed two weeks
before the first killing frost.
In some sections the stalks are up
rooted, piled and burned. This me-
thod is a very serious disadvantage in
destroying a large amount OF veget-
able matter which should be turned
under. Whenever the farmer IS
equipped with plows and mules so
that the stalks may be turned under
five to six inches after they have been
cut down with the chopper, it is a
very effective plan. A less effective
method is to Craze off all green cot
ton within a period Of few days.
Whatever method one employs, the
destruction of stalks must be
thorough.
The following are few OF the
many advantages secured from clean
ing the fields and destroying the
stalks.
/. A great many full grown wee
wills are killed outright.
2.-Many young stages in the plants
are killed.
8. The full grown weevils not
killed are weakened by starvation II
the stalks are destroyed two to three
weeks before the first frost and
these will not have sufficient strength
to pass the winter successfully.
4. The removal of the stalks facili-
tates fall plowing and the planting Of
cover crops.
5. This fall cleaning program is
also of the greatest benefit generally
in destroying the winter homes and
the winter food plants Of other in

''The Fruit of His Lips'-A Ser

Some seeds are winged, some float,
and some play the tramp and ride in
box cars. But the lips of men are
greater seed distributors than the U.
S. government is.
They are natures grain drill, corn
planter and broad caster combined.
The head is the hopper, all kinds of
stuff is poured into the ears, and then
the lips scatter it. It works over
time on weed seeds.
You see the fruit of the lips in the
sucker who has been taken in by the
smooth talker; in the hand that strikes
the deadly blow after the bitter quar-
rel; in the married drudge who is the
victim of courtship; in the foolish
voter whooping it up for the only
politician; and in the fanatic fired by
the designing demagogue.
You see the fruits of the lips in the
tenderness of the ballad and the
sweetness of the hymns. You see it
in the faces kindled by a smile and
blessed by the admonitions of a saint
ed mother.
You see the fruit of the lips in the
structures of the earth, and in the
multitude of business by land and
sea-. The seeds that the lips sow
clothe the world as the grass covers

counterfeit gold of the weeds.

VOTING III ANCIENT ATHENS
People Had a System of Expressing
Their Wishes Very Similar to
That Of Today.

Ancient Athens had at times a very
democratic form of government.
About everything was decided by vote,
even the guilt or innocence of ac-
cused persons, and probably decided
in the wrong about as often as in the
right. From one of their voting
practices we have derived a word in
common use. At one time the people
of Athens possessed the power of
driving into exile, without making any
definite charge, any leader or prom
inent person. Each citizen voted by
writing on an oyster shell, and the
Greek word for oyster shell, written
in the letters of our alphabet, is Os-
tracOn. From that we have derived
the word Ostracism, that is, the ex-
Guiding of an undesirable person from
good society. In their elections to
public office and in their courts of
law Grecian votes were cast by means
of balls of stone, or small discs of
metal, either white or black, the lat
ter, OF course, signifying cOndemna-
ton.
