PICKENS, S. C. :
TIIURSI)AY, APRIL 11 1907.
Carrie Nation, who sometimes hite
the mark, says Go:. Hoch, of Kansas,
is a "lobster."
When a man begins by saying, "To
tell you the truth," you may be pretty
sure he is going to tell a lie.
The Brooklyn Eagle says Mr.
Bryan might beat Mr. Taft-as Mr.
Rtoosevelt's prescribed understudy.
It costs more for a dill merchant
to brush the dust off his goods than
it would to advertise and sell them.
When Taft meets Foraker the
latter will irobably wish with Ham
let-'Oh, that this too, too solid
flesh would melt."
Uncle Sam pays rent amounting
to $400,000 every year. And the
burden is not even mitigated by thf
joy of being able to get out occasion
ally and hunt a tlat.
An exchange says there are twl
reasons why some people don't mind
their own businecss. One is that
they haven't any mind, and the othei
is that they haven't any business.
According to the Anderson Mail.
Senator Foraker is desperate. H(
has called in experts to swear that
the bullets found in the wallls it
Brownsville did not come from arm
rifks.

Grasping at Straws.
The editor of this paper, a" editor.
and personally, has always stod,
and will always stand for the best
interests of the town, and what he
says and does is open and above
board. In the matter of the town
e'eotion the report is being circu.
lated that he is making a "personal"
fight against Mr. .1. MoD. Bruce.
This is a lie out of the whole cloth.
I am not antagonistic to Mr. Bruce,
further than that. I have always said,
and now say, Mr. Bruce has no more
right than any other private citizeu
to name a ticket for this town. I
say this of him, would say it of R E.
Bruce, B. B. LaBoon, or any other
citizen who would try to do this. I
believe in the Democratic principle of
the primary system of running who
you please and electing whoever you
can. If this he treason make the
most of it. If Mr. Bruce's "triends"
(?) who Are circulating this report,
and otherii, will stop to think they
will change their tuue.
But, pahan! what is the use to try
nud kick up a strife in a place like
Pickens, wl" e everybody is pulling
for the g..'oud of tho town and where
it has been t he boast of her citizens
that no faetiotiahisin ever existed?
