MORE HEEEST.

If the Greenwood IndcX-Journal is
not the principal culprit, it is CO.
conspirator in undertaking to per-
suade the public that good liquor will
not cure snake bite. One day last
week, the Greenwood paper produced
an editorial in which it quoted this
and the other famous chemist to
prove that, instead of curing the i'll
effects following snake bite, liquor
was a help to get the victim out of
the way.
The contention, it seems has been
consistently spread until it has been
noticed by an old hunter in Florida.
The old hunter discusses the subject
in the New York Herald and de-
clares that the chemists are all
wrong, and that liquor will in fact

CARING FOR ROADS.

The rains of the past two weeks
are telling on the new top-soil roads.
They are beginning to need work. In
fact, as we have so often said before,
they need constant work. Abbeville
County has expended a very large
amount of money for the building of
these roads and they are fast dete-
riorating. Something must be done
before very long to keep them good
or they will MT stay good. We have
said this before, but it will bear re-
peating.

cure in cases of snake bite. He pro-
duces the same proof that Jim Rich
ardson, of Long Cane township, pro-
duced to prove his assertion that "a
chestnut rail fence will last hum
dred years,"-he has "tried it twice.
That should be the end of the argu-
ment unless the witness may be i'm
peached.
With these chemists, judges and
it won't be long until
there will be no excuse for having
liquor except for drinking purposes.

THE COTTON MARKET

There has been consistent ad-
vance in the price of cotton for the
last two weeks. Cotton is now selling
about three cents per pound more
than it sold for two weeks ago. 1t
is hard to advise on the cotton mar
ket, and it is never safe to do so.
However, there seems to be almost
a unanimous opinion that cotton will
sell higher. The present crop is not
going to the governments last esti-
mate by a half million bales, we
think. The farmers in many places
have sold some cotton and paid some
debts, and many are not pressed.
The banks are in better condition
than for the past two years, or they
like the others of US have gotten
used to hard times, while planters
are showing a disposition to hold.
In addition to this something
like twenty, or maybe twenty-five
per cent. of the crop will be market
ed by the farmers cooperative asso-
Citations, and these are not now Of
fering cotton, and show disposi-
tion not to do so until a much high
er price is reached.
These things induce us to believe
that cotton is going to sell at con-
siderably higher price. The scramble
which is bound to come, and which
is even now on in part, will make an
increasingly strong demand for the
staple as the season advances. We
are not advising anybody not to sell
cotton. Everybody must be his own
Judge about when to sell, but we
favor taking the chances for awhile
anyway.
Cotton at $1.89 is not yet in sight,
but these short crops make things
look promising.

BELTON MAN HURT

Belton, Oct, 17.-Clark Shaw
shot and painfully wounded John
Banister in the leg Sunday after
noon in the Bethany section.
It is alleged they were travelling
in the road together with brother
of Clark Shaw when dispute arose
over some money Shaw claimed
Banister owed him, which resulted
in Clark Shaw drawing his gun. His
brother knocked the gun down, and
as he did 50 the gun went off, shoot
ing him in he leg, shattering the
bone. AS far as known here no ar
rests have been made.

SERVING ON THE BENCH.

Last week we were in Columbia
to attend the memorial exercises in
the supreme court in honor of Judge
Ernest Moore and Judge Edward Nc
liver. And when we thought IF the
fact of these two stalwart men,
who ordinarily should have lived
many years, being taken at the ages
at which they passed, we could not
help but reflect that the life of the
circuit Judge is a hard one indeed.
His task is trying. The number of
men in the prime of life who have
been taken in recent years warns US
of the truth of this observation. A
man at so who goes on the bench
must figure that he takes from the
span of years which otherwise would
be his some five or more years. He
cannot do the work and live long.
Of course some men must Jake
these positions. They are positions of
high honor, and when properly fill
ed, of great usefulness. There have
always been men to serve the state
at whatever cost and there will con-
tinue to be until the end. But peo-
pie should not grow to think that
these men lead an easy life, full Of
pleasure land with good salaries.
The salaries are all too small, and
the drain on the reserve energy Of
the conscientious judge is great. He
deserves to be well thought of by the
people.

SLEEP WALKER IS VICTIM
 OF MYSTERIOUS SHOT

SUMNER, H., June 12.-Answering the call of his son to come help drive a number of negroes from a grove near the homes, Charles E. Craig has, tened out in the early morning hours to find the dead body of his son, aged twenty four, lying near wire fence.

BLUE LAWS ARE OPPOSED BY

 designed to force Sabbath observance ultimately will do more harm than good. according to Rev. Stewart Mar tin Smith, pastor of Donora Baptlst Church here and chaplain of two or ganizations of World War veterans.
 "The peace and quiet of the old-time Sunday cannot be forced upon peo- ple that is slowly but surely changing it's definition of religion, declared the Rev. Dr. Smith. q know the closed Sunday in Pittsburg, and I know the open Sunday in Paris, France. Ill Paris I discovered as much genuine piety as I ever discovered in Pitss- burg. '"s
 Naturally we of the churches favor strict Sabbath laws when thinking chiefly of our own interests, and we are loath to seem to argue against ourselves. But when we overcome prejudice we certainly are not unmind- ful of the many thousands who do not mare to worship just as we do. None of us keep the Lords Day as was ori- ginally done. Times change. So long as man gives one-seventh of his time to the spiritual demands of the nature it is his own business as to when, where and how he does so. The true Christian will never be disturbed if he has within him the perfect peace of which the Sabbath day is a symbol
 WOMEN coMPLlcATE SUBJECT
 "This subject, like the question of prohibition, is greatly complicated by the increasing participation of wom- eth in public affairs. Not because women are better than men, but be- cause they have been misguided in the matter of moral reform. In the first place they can only be reckoned with; they cannot be reasoned with. Time and experience will teach the women of this country that they must not get too naughty in telling men what to do. Our best women already realize that their conquests must be in the realm of love and moral suasion. Tn Penn sylvania we had a remarkable experi- ence in the shape of recent primary election. It is said the women put Clifford Pinchot across as the Republi- can gubernatorial candidate. Mir Pin chot himself says so. But this only partially analyses the situation. Per sonally I am for Mr Pinchot, and my opinion is not biased when I say it took more than the woman vote to nominate Pinchot in the Pennsylvania primaries The women cannot get any body into office, themselves included, ! if the men are against it, Pinchot's power in Pennsylvania was latent in his idealism and enthusiasm plus his association in the past with the pie turesuue Roosevelt. Thus there was added to his endorsement by the wo- men of the State the endorsement of the farmers, for a farmer loves the picturesque. .~~a.

MUST CONSIDER FEMININE
 INTUITION

"The only new political factor that has been introduced is that our prac- tical politicians must now take into account the well-known intuitive fac ulty of the feminine mind. This is reality and not fancy. It is rooted in woman's emotional nature. The heart is womans world, and she will ever be prone to try to satisfy her heart at the expense of her head. If we ever have woman President she will not be a brain woman; she will be a heart woman-a red rose and not white rose. But this country will not have women governors or woman for President until the men consent All government is founded on force, and no matter how many peace confer ences are held the fighting male is the only guarantee of the necessary force behind government A woman could not hold any political office whatever if men as class were against her. Every practical politician knows that if they wanted to do so men could keep every woman in the land out of office.
 SEX WAR WOULDN'T LAST
 A war of the sexes wouldn't last long. Mind and muscle subdue the world, and those are masculine at tributes. When Cleopatra seems to conquer it is because Caesar and Mark Antony are willing. Such feminine supremacy is never good for the world. and somebody is sure to get all snarled up. Attempts to make men travel the straight and narrow way would be funny if not so tragic It is the old error of failure to distin guish things that differ. Woman is the negative force in society and man is the positive force. Men have ob tained power and office without the consent of women, but the reVerce can never happen.

DONALD B. MAG MILAN USES EX|DE BATTERY IN HIS EXPLORATIONS

Donald B. McMillan, the Arctic ex- plorer, has returned from Baffin Land with much new evidence of the value of storage batteries on polar expedi- tions. The fact is now fully demon strated, according to Farrow-Stack- poole, the local Exide Service Station, that storage batteries are necessary equipment, not only in connection with the scientific work of polar ex- ploration, but because of their value in adding to the comfort of the men and the maintenance of their morale.
 Storage batteries furnished current for ignition in the oil engine of the Bowdoin, MacMillan's staunch vessel. There was, also, an electric light plant equipped with the Exide type of stor- age batteries. With this plant Mac Millan's men enjoyed freedom from the horrors of the Arctic winter dark hess that would make generations of former polar adventurers green with envy did they but know of it. These same batteries furnished current for the operation of a moving picture machine and many otherwise weary hours of enforced inactivity were passed away with the help of moving pictures accompanied by suitable se- lections from a talking machine.
 The Eskimos, themselves, were tremendously affected by these con- trivances of the white men. MacAIil- Ian tells the story of the Eskimo en- ployed by the Hudson Bay Company in solitary charge of post some forty to fifty miles from where the Bowdoin made winter quarters. He heard rumors of the wonderful battery op- erated electric lights which rivaled the summer sun for brilliance and sur passed the Northern Lights for use fitness. No one knows what doubts and hopes may have filled his oborig- inal mind.
 Excited by the Arctic gossip he loaded his sledge with provisions placed his two children on the load and, with his wife helping him in the traces, he trudged his way for two days over the painless distance to see (Continued on Page Nine)

SWEDISH INTERESTS WANT AMERICANS TO
 JOIN IN AUTO SHOW

American automotive manufactur- CTS should not neglect to exhibit their products at the next Swedish Inter- national Automobile Exhibition at Goteborg, Sweden, says Consul Sholes in report to the Department of Commerce at Washington.
 It will be held in conjunction with the Goteburg Jubilee Exposition from May 8 to July 15, 1923. Almost 75 per cent of the 29,562 cars and trucks in use in Sweden are of American manufacture. The Royal Automobile Club of Goteburg has already sent a committee to the Continent with the intention of arousing interest among European manufacturers. Accessory manufacturers should be particularly interested in this exhibition.
