The Greenvile Daily Piedmont calls the attention of those people who claim that the North is ahead of the South to the fact that we don't shoot fire-crackers in the South on the fourth of July. There is at least one honest man in Missouri, the editor of the Lamar Democrat, who says: "The only thing that keeps us from having an auto mobile is the fact that we haven't a blame thing to mortgage." Mr. Bryan, In speaking about the duty on wool, says if the democratic party ean be scared by the bleat of , a sheep, what will it do when it hears* the bellows , of the bulls and the growl of the bears of Wall street A Columbus, Ohio, dispatch says the supporters of Governor Harmon fear'tfia opposition of the Hon. Wil iHam Jennings Bryan. They are right The opposition of Bryan will prevent the nomination of any man. Gov. Blease says if the Legislature was to attempt to impeach him, he would stump the State and succeed Senator Tillman in the Senate. Should Gov. Blease attempt to displace Sen ator Tillman he would meet his Wat erloo. : If all that Col. Felde- - Bleaite say about each other is true, they are certainly a pair of prize takir g rascals. But no one believes all that eirher says about the other. Abusing each! other at long distance proves nothing, and they should quit It. A New York man was arrested for shooting a nocturnal visitor who in sisted on singing at his front door when all civilised folks are asleep. We agree with the Charlotte Observer that the aggravation ought to con stitute constructive assault at the very least In a speech at Dublin, Ga., on Tuesiday Col. Felder made the state ment that South Carolina was being rulei by the criminal class. This statement 1* not true, and Coh Fel der should not lot his hatred of Gov. Blease betray hfan into slandering the good old State. It may well be doubted whether any considerable number of honest democrats will be reconciled to a democratic tariff bill, bo be defended exactly as t'ae Aldrlch-Payne bill was, on the ground that it is "a step in the right direction" and that business must not be disturbed. ' The pardon of Wash Hunter, a well-to-do farmer of Laurens County, who was convicted of manslaughter and sent to the penitentiary for eight years, by Gov. (Blease has caused considerable comment Inasmuch as Gov. Blease was Hunter's lawyer, many think it showed bad taste on his part to interfere with the sen tence. Congressman Lever was marries Wednesday to Miss Luclle Scurry Butler, of Lexington County. 'Mr. Lever and his fair bride has the best wishes of all. The Times and Dem ocrat specially congratulates him for the excellent judgment he showed in selectelng his life partner from the noblo women of his own section. They are the best in the world. * ? The Saluda Standard says thert are some men so full of self impor tance and so dictatorial in their na ture, that should they be living when the world comes to its end, and when Gabriel plants one foot upon the land and the other upon the sea iand ?through his mighty trumpet declares by heaven and earth that time shall be no more, they will likely suggest to Gabriel that he can't blow his horn exactly right, and will offer to show him how. "Working quiety and practically unnoticed by the body of the Ameri can people, the special interests are already, more than a year in advance of the national conventions, planning to bring about the nomination of a republican and democratic candidate for the presidency," says the San Francisco Star. That may be true, but they can be headed off by the Democrats nominating Wilson or Clark or some other Democrat of their str.mp. Seneca said "death falls heavily on him who is too much known to others aud too little known to him self. Pontanus an old scholar, con sidered self-knowledge of so much consequence that he wrote this epi taph for his own tomb: "I am Pon tanus, beloved by the powers of lit erature, admired by men of worth, and dignified by the monarchs of the world, Thou knowest now whom I was, I cannot now know thee, but I entreat thee to know thyself." Give the People a Chance. There has been considerably dis cussion aoout the way the meeting to elect Trustees of the Graded School on last Friday night was manipulated by interested parties to get a certain trustee off the board, who, it teems, stood in the way of the plans these interested parties wanted, carried out. This is not the first time that this has happened, but it should be the last. We have not a word to say aga'inst the two new trustees elected Friday night. They are both, good men, and will no doubt give good and faithful service What we object to is the power the present mode of electing these trustees give to a few unscrupulous men who may wish to punish some man on the board that refuses to do their bidding, and we think it ought l.o be changed so as every citizen who wants to can vote for trustees with out having to spend hours wailing in a warm, disagreeable room to do so, as* the present plan of electing these important officials requires him to do. That is why these meetings are so poorly attended and elections al lowed to go ,by default. The law should be changed so as the trustees can be elected every four years when the municipal .election takes place. A ballot box could be arranged near where the city election is conducted and every voter who is qualified could then express his choice for trustees. The Commis sioners of Public Works are elected this way. Why not the Trustees or our Graded School? It will be no hardship on the people, because most of them vote in the municipal elec tion, and it would only take a few seconds for them to go to the box and vote for School Trustees. Besides this is the Democratic way to elect Trustees, and bein,*, with Bryan and Tillman, a very strong believer in the people, we think they should be given a chance to "{ay who they want for School Trustees with out having to go up in a hall and sweat it out for an hour or two and then have a cut and dried ticket rammed down their throats. Char leston , Columbia, Sparenburg, Greenville and other progressive cities elect their School Trustees when they elect city officials. Why should not Orangeburg do the same? The present system of electing School Trustees may be all ri?ht for a small town, but Orangeburg has out grown it, and no time should be lost in changing it. The only reason why thirty-seven citizens are allowed to select School Trustees for several hundred citizens is the inconven ience that citizens are put to to vote for these officials. Make it con venient for the people to do so, and they will be glad to express an opin ion as to who they want Lor Trus tees the same as they do for Mayor, Aldermen, and Commsisioners o? Public Works. If any one has any reason why the people should not be given this opportunity let them speak out i Because of the Inconvenience of the present plan a few men can manipulate the election so as to get any men on the Board of Trustees they want. In this way anv scheme that designing men may warit to -work to advance their interests can be easily put through. Two or three men have been selecting all the School Trustees for a great many years In fact, they have t een doing it so long that they have about come t? the conclusion that any man that differs from them has no business on the board. Should such a man acci entally get on they get him off by se cretly working up opposition to htm and gettiis enough personal follow ers out to carry out their wishes. If the people have sense enough to elect their Senators, Congressmen, Members of the Legislature, County Officers. Mayor and Aldermen, a-?d all other public officials, they surely have s?nse enough to elec' the Trus tes to manage their schools. This ar ticle is written at the request of sev eral gentlemen, whose eyes have been opened to the necessity of a change in the mode of choosing our Trustees. They propose to give the people a chance to nam? the men they want in these positions, and take their selection out of the hands of those who have axes to grind in the way of increased salaries for a few favorites Another Election Forecast. A short time ago the Nebraska State Journal, a Republican paper published at Lincoln, Nebraska, sub mitted a list of questions to the edi tor of pvery Republican paper in the State on the presidential prospects. The questions were: il. Is it your judgment that Presi dent Taft can carry Nebraska? 2. Can he be elected? 3. Do you believe a stronger man than Taft can be nominated by the Republicans next year? In its issue of June 1 the State Journal printed the first batch of re plies received. Here are some of the answers: The Pender Reporter says "as be tween Taft and Wilson t do not be lieve Taft could carry Nebraska, nor do I believe he could be elected. He is probably as strong a candidate as the Republicans can name. Taft is stronger to-day than he was a year ago and if he will use the next year to right advantage could make him self a formidable candidate. If he does not and the Democrats nominate Wilson he will get licked to a fraz zle. The Ponca Journal says it does not believe Taft can carry Nebraska. Should Wilson or Harmon be the Democratic nominee Taft's defeat would be certain. v The Nuckollo Count; Herald says it is our opinion that T.ift will carry Nebraska with a good majority. We believe the people are beginning to realize his true worth, and when the time comes they will respond The Ashland Gazette says: We do not believe that President Taft can carry Nebraska. We don't believe that he can be elected. Probably Presi dent Taft would have as good a [chance as any Republican, but under j the present demoralized condition of ithe Republican party we consider it improbable ths.t a Republican will be the next President. The Wes tern Nebraska Observer says: We believe Taft will carry Ne braska. He can be elected. We do not know of a stronger man in the Republican party sat the present tin-;. The President's views are not ours on all questions, but we believe it the best policy for the Republican party to renominate him and do the best we can to elect him He is prob ably the strongest man now in the party. The Geona Leader says: Against a progressive like Wil3on, no; against Harmon, yes. Possibly next year, but not to-day against a square-toed progressive. Yes as things look at present writing. The Dunbar Review says: We do not belive Taft will carry Nebraska. It is a grave doubt in my mind. He will possibly ,be elected He cannot beat Woodrow Wilson. There are many Republicans who would run better than Tafi. The Wilbur Republican says: Pres ident Taft might not be able to car ry Nebraska to-day, but believe he will be able to do it next fall. We believe he can be elected next year and I do not believe a stronger man can be nominated unless something unforseen develops between now ana then. The Atkinson Graphic fiays Taft can be elected uhless Wilson runs. These replies, which, it should be remembered, are only from Republi cans, would indicate that Mr. Taft has a very poor chance of carrying Nebraska This chance would dwin dle to a minimum if the Democrats should nominate Woodrow Wilson. It would seem from the replies that the Republican editors fear Wilson a great deal more than Harmon. CLASSIFIED COLUMN One-half Cent a Word Found Notices Free* For Sale?Two cheap mules. See R. J.

BLE'ST?DIES' JEHOVAH'S SUFFERING SERVANT Isaiah 52:13; 53:1-12?July 9 "Jehovah hath laid on him the iniquity of us alk" *TpN this stndy we hare a Divinely drawn portrait of the experi J2L, ences which God fore-ordained should come upon the One whom He has promised shall ultimately be the great Messiah of glory who will exalt the nation of Israel and through it pour blessings upon all the families of the earth. Thus it Is written, "In thy Seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed." Much of the proph ecy of this study has already been ful filled, but not all of it?the glorious features are yet to come, and we be lieve are nigh, even at the door. These prophecies were written nearly Beven hundred years before our Chris tian Era. They had their most striking fulfilment In the personal experi ences of Jesus. However. It should not be for gotten that a faith ful handful, a "lit tle flock," the fol lowers of Jesus, have walked in His steps during the nineteen cen turies of this Age; they have follow- ^ ^0am ^ ed Him through evil report and good report; they have suffered with Him. and the reproaches of thoie who reproached Him have fallen upon them; aud when the hour of glorious revelation. ? the Kingdom power, shall come, these will be with their Redeemer and share His throne and glory, and. as His Bride, share His name. "This is the name whereby she shall be called. Our righteousness of Jehovah."-.ler. 23:G; 33:1G. The key to the understanding of the long delay in the establishment of Mes siah's Kingdom is found in the fact that the Church is a very part of Him. member.': of His Body: Had it not been the Divine intention to gather "elect" few from Israel and from all nations to be the Bride of Messiah, and a sharer in His Kingdom, there would have been no need of the long delay between the sufferings of Jesus and the outpouring of the glorious blessings which His death secures. Agnin it must be remembered that the elect Church is wholly different from the nominal church, as repre sented in its various systems. The true Church of God consists only of the 6aintly few who may be found in side and outside of all denominations of Christendom. "Gather My saints together unto Me, those who have made a covenant with Me by sacri fice." (Psa. 50:5.) There are two, reasons why the world and Its great ones will be as tonished when the Mediatorial King dom shall suddenly burst upon the world. They hove heard such chimer ical and unreasonable statements re specting Messiah's Kingdom, even from the people of God, that they will be taken completely by surprise when they shall behold the reality. When it shall be ushered in, follow ing a great social revolution, it will be so much more majestically grand than anything dreamed of that every mouth shall be stopped and, as the Lord through the Prophet declares, that Kingdom of Messiah shall be the "desire of all nations."?Hag. 2:6, 7. Ac Seen by His Followers Chapter 53. verses 1 to 6, pictures the experiences of Jesus as viewed from the standpoint of the disciples of His day and since. Following their com mission, they have told the wonderful story of the Sa vior's love and sacrifice, even unto death. But how few have heard, in the true sense of hearing; how few have ap preciated it; how few have seen in Jesus the Arm of Jehovah, stretch ed down for the relief of Adam and his race from sin and death! Only a handful, the saintly few, really and truly believe the message, for surely every true be liever would not only accept the prof fered share of the Redeemer's merit, but also the proffered share of His sufferings, that they might have a ?hare also In the glory to follow. The Scriptures explain that In the Divine arrangement our Lord buys Adam and his race, condemned through his fall. Being raised from the dead by the Heavenly Father, Jehovah, Je sus is now the glorified One. merely waiting for the completion of the Church which is His Body, that He may take to Himself His great power and reign, as The Messiah of Israel and of the world. During the Messiauic reign, opportunity will be given to Adam and fill his race to be resurrect ed or uplifted out of sin and death : conditions?up. up, up to full human perfection and everlasting life?to all that was lost in Adam, to all that was ] redeemed through the cross. This is ! explained in the following verse: "lie ; shall see His Reed"?His progeny: so many of Adam's progeny as will obey Him He will adopt as nis children, giving them life everlasting on the plane of human perfection.
