President's Touring.
Many are inclined to censure the President
of the United States for traveling all
over the country as ho is doing, forming
acquaintances and making speeches en
route.
Those who criticize him do not know the
amount of good accomplished by these
tours. If It were possible the President
should visit every county in the United
States. This Is the only way to know a
people. One must go to see them, mix
. with them, apeak to them, learn their
needs, sympathize with them in th<nr
struggles and lend aid in uplifting the
masses.
There is no one but will acknowledge
that Taft's trip south has helped both Taft
and the south, not that either has changed
political faith, but there is a bond of sympathy
now that did not exi6t before.
Let the Presidents get out and meet this
vast people. Let him learn what he can of
their wants and needs. The President will
thus learn to respect the wishes of the people
and the people learn to respect thtf
President.
The State Fair.'
The annual State Fair is to eclipse any
fair ever held in Columbia. President
Mobley is enthusiastic over the outlook.
Reports from all over the State indicate
that the people are interested and that a
very large crowd will be in attendance.
The Red Shirts may attend in a body.
Winthrop College will likely be there on
some day in a body. Col. Thomson's regiment
of the Uniform Rank of Knights of
Pythias will also be a special feature. Foot
bail as usual will be a drawing card. The
side shows on Main Street will be at the
same old stand.
From the present outlook Abbeville will
send the largest delegation she has sent in
many years to the fair. The event has

. 1911 Pounds in One Days Picking.
Picking cotton requires a sleight of hand
that every person doos not posess. That
sleight is exhibited to a marked degree in
the personal oX Mr. O. H. Cochrans family.
One day last week five of his boys, all
under age except one, picked 1918 pounds,
and it was not much of a day for picking
cotton either.
Eakin Cochran picked 444 pounds and
had just recovered from a bone felon on
one of his fingers. Ben picked 428 pounds,
Tom, the oldest, 420 pounds, Sloan, picked
818, and Manning, a twelve year old,
, picked 303 pounds, making a total of nineteen
hundred and eighteen pounds in one
day. Who can beat it?

Mr. R. M. Hill Adds a Story to His Home
and Do.es Much Else to Improve the
Place.
Mr. B. M. Hill has just completed splen
did improvements or additions to his
dwelling' house on Magazine Hill. Tin
original house was that which Charles Co:
built before the war, but now since its en
largement and with a story added, and al
is covered by a more modern roof, it ha;
little or no resemblance to the forme;
house. A broader piazza in front and run
ning past the end adds a world of pleasur<
or comfort to the family. The bath roon
is to be finished with all the modern equip
ments. Mr. Hill and his good wife hav<
been living happily together for abou
twenty-four years, and they are now pre
paring to live another twenty-live yean
enjoying a better house and more comfort:
than ever before. Not counting the tw<
sons who have gone out from the roof tree
they have with them a house full of tin
nicest of children to love and to honoi
their parents. ,
Gaynor and Hearst.
TKo llomnnrntio nnminpp for liiavor o
Greater New York, Judgb Win. J. Gaynor
is holding up the reputation of the partj
in New York. Judge Gaynor gives as i
reason why he should be elected the faci
that Hearst promised to support him if h<
ran. No doubt Hearst would have sup
ported him had he not seen fit to run him
self. When a man enters the list himself
that fact makes null and void all promises
he may have made to any one else. Al
promises of a politician are made with tin
tacit understanding that "I do not rur
myself." s
Justice Gaynor should not takeumbragi
at Hearst's changing his mind. All poli
ticians do this at times. *

RED SHIRTS IN COLUMBIA.
i State Reunion will be Held on Wednc?

Col. J. C. Stribling, commander in clii<
of the Red Shirt Men, has announced tlui
the Red Shirt Reunion, celebrating the 33
> anniversary, will be held in Columbia o
? Wednesday of fair week. An agreemei
' between Col. Stribling and the state fa
L officials on the date was reached on Satui
- day. The Red Shirt Association has e:
1 tended invitations to the surviving1 men

GOOD COTTON PICKING.
t ^
5 If Kept up Will Make a Town Farm*
Rich
} Mr. W. A. Long of this city lias a ni<
' little farm near the corporate limits, an
5 he may be 'said to lie a successful tow
r farmer. In three days last week lie h.i
fifteen bales of cotton picked, mis is i
the rate of five bales a day. Suppose thei
are forty good days for picking cotton b
j. tween now and the close of the season, an
suppose Mr. Long continues to pick lh
' bales a day for that length of time li
t would have 200 bales. And suppose agai
t that the price should go up to fifteen cent
and the price of the seed should wabbl
between 30 and 40 cents a bushel", M
Long realize a handsome sum of mone
for his trouble in looking after his agricu
' tural interest. If we had a few farmei
| to make 200 bales the situation in tl
cotton market would be relieved, and tl
cotton mills could run night and day, ii
stead of on short time, as now conten
plated.
