Swat early and avoid the
rush.
And don't forget to bury the
old tin can.
The raincoat and the overcoat
has each had its day but
for our part we prefer the day
of the straw hat, which has
been so long deferred.
If the Sunday weather thus (
iar voucnsatea to us will out :
continue throughout the year, '
1913 will oiler the able-bodied '
few excuses for not going to
church.
(
The Greenville Piedmont 1
ventures the assertion that if 1
President Wilson's message had 1
been as long as one President '
Taft sent in, he would not have
been willing to read it himself.
If the king can real his message
from the throne of Great
Britain to the House of Commons,
surely a Democratic
President may in all propriety ,
deliver his before the Congress
of the United States.
Congress and baseball are
the absorbing topics of interest
just now, but we venture the
assertion that there are more
readers of the sporting pa pre
than of the news of congressional
happenings, however important
these may be.
Another town, Statesville,
N. C., has been offered a library
or at least Mr. Carnegie
has consented to give
$10,000 for a building, provided
Statesville gives $1,000 annually
for its support. An
election has been ordered to
vote on the proposition. When
is Lancaster going to become
forward-looking in this respect
?
Senator Tillman has become i
quite philosophical about his
defeat for the chairmanship of
the appropriations committee,
declaring recently that he believes
it was an act of Providence
which will give him time
to devote to politics in South
Carolina. The ways of Providence
are strange and past findout,
and neither would we question
them, but it does seem to
us that the senator should still
be able to keep busy in Washington
and give poor old South
Carolina a rest from himself
and his politics at least.
The Daily Times serves:
notice on its readers that it 1
nrnnnses t?? "stir iir? some more
fuss" in Florence as soon as it
gets out of the "fight" in which
it is now engaged. In reference
to one of these "lights,"
that fearless journal says "we
are so used to that sort of thing
that we do not mind it." The
Times Joes not mince matters.
Whenever there is an evil which
t believes can be remedied it
does not hesitate to call public
attention to it. The Times
strives not so much for popui

Mr. Lewis W. Parker of

in referring to the Demo- \ir

the cotton schedule, but many
others have been inadquately
considered. The whole bill is (i|
too drastic and, in my opinion, <?i .ti
the reductions should have
been more gradual." imnt.
Mr. Parker, while in Wash- rit.t,
ington attending the annual charl
meeting of the American Cotton
Manufacturers' Associa- ,or s
tion, was also interviewed by N)
the correspondent of The Char- his r
lotte Observer, who quotes him per.
as saying, "i used to think I "
