been made by which all waste mater
ial from the crate factory is to be
used by the power plant for fuel. Den

industry, it is said, as it is in the
heart of a prosperous trucking dis

uting center for this product. The

Former Carlisle Boy is
Drowned in Spartanburg

D. B. Rhodes, of Estill, former
Carlisle student, was drowned in
Spartanburg, where he was student
Of Wofford college, last Friday.
Young Rhodes at last years COM
mencement won the oratorical med
al in the literary societies contest.
He was highly esteemed by his fell
low students and the Carlisle facul-
ty. He entered Wofford at the be-
ginning of the session now coming
to a close. The following Spartan
burg dispatch gives the details Of
the unfortunate ending OF this ex-
cellent and promising young man:
ID. B. Rhodes, a student at Wof-
ford college, member of the fresh
man class and substitute halfback on
last years foot ball team, was drown
ed at Cleveland park lake here this
afternoon. He was a son Of J. E.
Rhodes, of Estill, Hampton county,
and before coming to Wofford was
student of Carlisle school at Bam-
berg.
Rhodes with his roommate and
party of Wofford students went to
the park Immediately after dinner to-
day and one otter another dived into
the lake from a concrete bridge to
swim across to the diving tower.
When he had gone half the distance
he was seen to throw up both hands
and sink, but for the moment his
companions gave his disappearance
no consideration, thinking he had
dived. His body never came to the
surface again until it was recovered
20 minutes later by the use of grap-
pling hooks. Physicians were called
and for two hours restoratives were
administered, but without result. The
college authorities notified his par
ents and the body is to be taken to
Estill tomorrow, where the funeral
will take place.
"The young man was 20 years old.
When student at Carlisle he re-
ceived a medal. He was Intending
later to study medicine.

Only 2OMoreD)ays
to Enter the Contest

Only 20 days remain in which to
get your answers in to The Herald S
Busy Bee" picture puzzle contest.
The contest closes on June goth, and
your reply must be mailed on or be-
fore that date. Late mailing of
answers must bear postmark of not
later than June 20th.
A few days will elapse before the
answers can be gone over, and then
the prizes will be awarded. The
prizes do not consist of the usual
merchandise offered in contests, but
will consist of real good old spend
able mon" We do not offer you a
,graphophone Or suite of furniture.
All prizes will be in the cash money.
You see the advantage. If you want
to buy a gold watch or suit or two
of clothes, you have the money to do
it with.
One of the most attractive features
about the Bee Hive picture puzzle is
that it does not cost anything to try.
If you gain nothing, you lose nothing.
You do not even have to subscribe to
The Herald to enter the contest, al
though you may increase the amount
of the prize, in the event you win, by
doing so.
The educational feature of this con-
test appeals to many people. The
thing looks simple, and it is simple.
Open the page now. You see pic
ture there with many objects on it..
All you have to do is to pick out the
objects the name Of which begins
with the letter "B," write them down
on a piece of paper, and send in to
The Herald. 1t will sharpen your
wits, for the more you study the pic
picture the more objects you will
find.
Some of them will put your mind
to work. You know what they are,
but maybe you just can't recall the
right name. But thinking and study
ing will solte this difficulty, and you
will soon become so engrossed in the
picture that you will hardly want to
quit.
A good many of those hunting "B'
words are working on them at inter-
walls. There is danger in that. You
may put it aside and forget about
sending in your answers. The best
plan is to finish this picture right
away and send in your answer.
Some of our friends are under the
impression, too, that in order to quail
fy they must send in somebody else's
subscription to The Herald. This is
not correct. You do not have to send
any subscriptions at all, but If
you wish, to qualify for one of the
larger prizes, you can send in your
own subscription as we'll as any one
else's. OF course you expect to con-
tinue reading The Herald. If your
subscription does not expire for some
time yet, you may renew it for a
year, and you will get full credit, or
you may ask a friend to give you
either a new or renewal subscription.
But it makes no difference to us
new or old subscriptions are just the
same with us.
Another thing. No one connected
with The Herald in even the remotest
degree is eligible to receive prize.
None of the employees of the paper
nor the membe of employees fami-
lies can receive prize.
Don't procrastinate. Send in your
answer today.

WHAT'S A DEMOCRAT?

A few days ago we asked what US,
is the state democratic executiv,
committee, and incidentally asked
several recognized leaders of demo.
cratic thought if they believed them.
selves democrats under the edict is
sued by George Raney & Co., re-
Gently defining the qualifications of
democrat who might desire to par
ticipate in the primary in June. We
asked if they could define what con-
stitutes democrat. The Ocala
Star, publishing only the last para
graph of that inquiry, with charac-
teristic buffoonery, asked what kind
of "brainstorm" prompted us to
make such an inquiry.
If The Star is democratic in prin-
ciple we would like to know what it
considers is meant by the resolution
passed by the state committee on
February % when it declared that
all electors, in order to qualify to
participate in the primary "must be-
lieve in the principles of the demo-
cratic party"
The Miami Herald evidently only
saw the paragraph reproduced by
The Star, and, at some length sets
forth that there are no declared prin-
ciples of the party in Florida and
asks The News to state them, if it
can. We confess that if there is an
individual or set of principles for
Florida democrats we have not yet
encountered it.
What is your conception, Brother
Benjamin, aside from all the tolerant
condescension you might have for
one who seeks to gain at least one of
your ancient ears and might not al
ways agree with you on matters of
moment?

is none who can formulate a creed
that will satisfy majority Of those
who, call themselves democrats in
this state. The state executive COM
mittee declined to differentiate be-
tween those who have always voted
the democratic ticket in this state
and those who at times have voted
another. 1t has refused to recognize
that those who bolted the party five
years ago have really left the organ
ization. 1t welcomes those who vote
with the democratic party on local
issues, but who vote with another
party on national issues. 1t has no
authority itself to state what are
democratic principles and it does not
dare to take the initiative in calling
a convention that might assert that
authority.
If, therefore, The Palatka News
will define democratic principles in
Florida and point out the men who
adhere religiously to them, The
Herald, speaking for itself, will then
announce whether it can, in con-
science, adhere to them.
Meanwhile, The Herald will en-
dorse democratic principles as it rec
ognizes them. 1t will continue its
fight, hopeless though it may be,
against the continual Capitalization
of the states powers in the federal
government. 1t will uphold the doc
trine of the states right to govern
itself. 1t believes in the equality
of all before the law, in the political
and social supremacy of the white
race in this state and in this coun-
try. It decries the special privileges
extended through our laws and prac-
tees to the favored few. It believes
in tariff for revenue only. 1t is for
America before all the world and
against any foreign entanglements.
1t stands for what it believes is the
pure democratic principle of a free
country under free flag.
But, as The Herald remarked be-
fore, it speaks only TO ritself and
has no authority to make any dec
Iaration of principles for the other
gentlemen. They seem to be pretty
we'll able to take care of themselves.

CONFUSING THE ISSUE.

A great many papers in the STATE
are rising in their righteous igno
rance and declaring that capital re
moval will never succeed because
possible sites in the peninsular sec.
ton are fighting for the location. Sc
far as we have been able to discern
by declarations from Ocala, Orlando
Gainesville and other possibilities
there is no avowed candidate for the
site. All want capital removal first,
and a new site afterwards.
AS The Ocala Star puts it, any of
the cities mentioned would prefer
airy peninsular town to Tallahassee
and would vote to move it to the new
site, nearer to the center TO popula-
ton and transportation, than to let
it remain where it is.
Palatka is seeking, first of all, to
have the capital removed to logical
site. The selection of logical site
is merely the matter of geography
AMI calculation.
