VPednesdaj, Feb 28, 1912 Et Tu Brute! While the course of Theodore Roosevelt rather than that of President Taft would seem to parallel that of a usnrping Ciesar, this stab in the back, administered by the ex-pnjsident is truly the act of a Brutus. Doubtless the Colonel, too, like Brutus, would say: "Not that I loved Taft less but my country more." When the returns are In from the Re publican National Convention, It is proba ble that the deadly parallel may be car ried even further. It is seldom that a traitor profits substantially by his traitor ous act. Roosevelt-may succeed in killing Taft, but he will suffer himself, either in the convention or in the general election. The people of the United States will noti repeat the history of Mexico. No man has ever had the hold on a majority of the people of this country that President Grant had, and yet his third term aspira tions ended in defeat In the convention. If a Democratic President was in the White House, and the call to Roosevelt came up from a united party, the third term burden might be overcome. But if anybody thinks that Taft's friends of the middle West will not resent humiliation of him by the convention, they deceive them selves. Whether Roosevelt or Taft is pominated, to 6ay the least of It, for once a serious split exists In the Republican party. Come to think of It, what has Roosevelt done to give him such popularity with the Republican masses? As president he was a "stand pat" tariff advocate. Now he Is singing tariff reform. As president he kicked the handful of progressive Repub licans In Congress about like so many foot balls. He laughed to scorn the Bryan policies, and then adopted theia all at ill} yviiyiro. uo ttic 1 auama xji/ui in such a way as to keep this government explaining ever since. He condemned th? use of trust funds in popular elections and, and secretly called on the trusts foi larger sums than were ever before levies for a presidential campaign. He has don* more talking than ail the presidents com bined from the days of Washington down, and he has left as little, in the way of per manent public good, as and president who has occupied the office. The Bepublicans are not fools. They know the substantial man from the dis sembler, and not until the Convention hat spoken will we believe that Taft will b< thrown down. We expect to hear the wild and woolly West echo the war-whoop of the Colonel, but when the pie counters ot South and the voting centers of the mid dle west are heard from, it will be found that Taft or a dark horse will have the nomination. The mix-up looks very favorable for tht Democrats, if they do not as usual "do th? wroqg thing at the right time.'' The gold en opportunity of the party lies In the nomination of Harmon. He can win, and he alone. Dlx of New York is too weak at a man. Wilson is too weak geographical ly. Clark or Underwood would get only a complimentary Southern vote. This County should Instruct for Harmon. This State should instruct for Harmon The Southern States should Instruct for Harmon. Harmon's strength lies in his ability tc carry Republican votes that are out of ac cord with their party. He has been twice elected governor of Ohio by disaffected Republican votes. This is no reflection on Harmon. The disaffected Republican vote is Republican only In name; In sentiment they are in full sympathy with Democratic doctrine. Progressive Republicans and Democrats are one on all important mens onW UormAn to fho man on whnm they will willingly unite. Important Changes in Water Supply. For some weeks a committee of the city council has been making surreys and working out the details of a plan looking to the enlargement of the city's water plant. While the present supply of water is ample for ordinary uses, in time of fire and in the dry summer months the supply has been short. Additional water will be had either from the branch running back of R. A. Richey's place or from McCord's creek In case the proposed changes go into effect. It is pro posed to deliver water at the railroad ^hops first, and carry the overflow to our present filtering plant. A contract profita ble alikft to the railroad and to thn town will likely be entered into, and the revenue arising from this will be applied to the in debtedness incurred. It is thought that the addition or en largement will cost something like $6,000, and that additional water taken will bring in a good revenue. The Ice Plant is in need of more water, and would likely utilize city water on rea sonable terms. When Hunting Season Closes. The Acts of the Legislature for 1911 made the close season for bunting birds uniform over the State. It now begins November 15th and closes March 15th, un less changed by the Legislature now in session, which would not affect this season. Judge Sease. Judge T. S. Sease, now presiding in the criminal court here, makes a handsome appearance on the bench. He has insti tuted reforms in the matter of attendance on the court. Lawyers, witnesses and ju rors are in their places and the work of court proceeds rapidly. Governor Blease doubtless syr r. thizes with the foreman of a juiy that had been hung for some hours who in sending out for supper asked that one meal for a gen tleman and eleven bundles of fodder be ent in. The Legislature seems to have discov ered a kind of veto virus. Thirty-one out of thirty-three cases cured is a pretty good record for the new.disoovery. ir i" in- (fi The Making of a Town. : Loss than three hundred years ago tho site of this Beautiful little city was a wil derness, a tangled mass of cane and vine | under the forest primeval. No money | lender would have taken a mortgage of the entire county for a loan of two hun dred dollars. A few French Huguenots and Scotch Irish settlers driven from their homes for conscience'sake, took.up thelr.abodes here abouts, and in time a scattered settlement took shape in the semblance of a town. Doubtless the public spring at the foot of the hill near jthe square, more than any other one thing was of consequence in the selection of the site. The fact is, however, a few people did settle here, and in time, as a consequence the beautiful little city of Abbeville, with its history and tradi tions sprang up and it has been a poten tial factor in all the leading events of the State. It is a fair conclusion, then, that people make a town and that they are attracted by the physical advantages that the town offers. If nothing is done by the citizen ship of a town to attract now comers ana to employ her own young men of rising generations, It will gain nothing from without and will lose much of its best tal ent to its more wiae-awake neighbors. Aay county seat will attain a certain stage of growth as the centre of a farming section, but beyond that, its growth de pends entirely on the public spirit of its citizens. Before the shops and the cotton rnlil were built in Abbeville the town had lees than two thousand inhabitants and II they had not been built, the population I -k.m Uao t han twontv.Hvrt hnnrir?d today. Another cotton mill would attract more lhau a thousand additional popula tion and would most likely attract addi tional industries. It Is only the Initial principle of men and industries making a a. town. Our merchants should not con tent themselves with prolitable business, walking only In the footsteps of their fa thers. They should build for a larger and oetter business, a larger and better town; they should open up new avenues of busi ness to their sons and daughters ruther than give their servioes tto neighboring tjwns. Abbeville should have another cotton uiiU. There is no better time to build It than now. When money is scarce ma chinery Is cheap. Wheu cotton Is cheap the mills are prosperous, if another mill .ike our present mill was la operation lu die city now, paying out thousands of dollars per mouth (or wages and supplies, jur merchants would not feel so keenly .he depression through which the cotton market has bfeeu passing. Doubtless many will say that the time is iuopportuue for agitating the questiou of anew mill. The time to invest lu a touic is when you are sick. This towu needs a tonio and it needs it now. Internally it is torpid and its members art) dubby and inert. - , | A town will be Just what its oitlzens will I it to be. lu point *.?t capital; iu point of m point of railroad advantages; iu point of electrical power; rrofli any view point wo have the advantage of uiauy of our Neighbors. That we uo ti-*b uoc that u?l l /antago for tiie upbunuiu^ ui mo u??v? is the. greater shuuie. The a ureal jj.au (or bringiug .outside capital luto a vpwn is to use wltu energy, and for publiu ad vauoement, the oapital that Is already here. Politics, Politicians and Voters* Bvory word has a history, some of them are Interesting. Ho polltes meant. In the Greek, a citizen and politics meant that which belonged to or concorned the citi zen. The office of the politician has so besmirch the word that now politics Is a synonym for rascal in Spanish and politi cian Is not much better In English. Are politicians altogether to blame for this state of affairs? They tell us that only a few decades back the offioe sought the man and not the man the office, and some men sigh for a return of ye olden time regime. Has human nature ex changed to (this extent in fifty years? Hardly! Conditions have changed. Fifty years ago not many men felt thatjthey had the mental discipline necessary to en gineer the affairs of the state and county and ^nation. They were not educated. Now our schools have done their work and there are hundred of qualified men to where there was one fifty years ago. This is why the man seeks the uffloe and not the office the man. Huma^- nature J 1 114-1 DI.U UOtib uufc i-uaugv, wuuiuvus w. ui(ju school boys of today are better educated than were college Jbred mon fifty years ago. That men seek office is no reflection on the men. They would have done the same In the olden time had they had the education ^necessary. The opprobrium that arises from politics comes from the methods now and then used by those In the race. There seems to be little ethics in this profession. Teachers have a code of etliics that govern them in their rela tions to one another and to the public. Lawyers have a code which ?only recently has been very ably and effectively pre sented to the publio and the' profession by his Honor Chief Justice Gary. Doctors have a code, preachers have a code. Why not office seekers, slnoe office seeking has developed into a kind of profession? For mutual and Individual betterment let the office {Seekers establish a code of ethics which shall govern all and sundry whofwould seek political preferment. This Is not meant for a Joke. We are in earnest. Establish a oo<Je and make the dear people aware of ltd provisions and prohibitions so that infractions of the code may be pateDt to all. ;! The terms or such a code migfit De worked out by the office seekers them selves. How would this sound :f-No offloe seeker shall button-hole a voter and In veigle him|into promising his support, but shall only present his pause In a dignified manner expecting no Answer, yea or nay, and it shall be considered siiperservlce able for any voter to make such promise. Or this: No office seeker on pain of with drawal, shall Imentlon* any thing about the private life or affairs of any candidate or shall attack the character of any candi date. Or this;?Candidates shall neither be allowed to give nor lend money to any constituent while In $he race for office or while holding office.^ Or this: Candidates may be allowed to attend funerals without having their motive#fmpugned. Or this: It sh ill not be deemed necessary for a de feated candidate to telegraph felicitations to his successful competitor when the can didate is not in the proper frame of mind to do so. And many others too numerous to men 1 tlon. Why not a code? The voter would certainly welcome such I a code If It would removb from hin? thp cmbarassment of promising things of which he is not always sure. More lies white lies, good-natured lies, if you wish? j are told about election time than at any; other time. Mr. C. C. Corley, a quondam! offlceseekerln this county, emphatically asserted that the majority of the men In the county were liars, for the majority had promised him support and he received only a very few votes. The trouble Is with tho code. It should be wrong to promise where there Is any doubt as to eventualities. Strike for a code and let's have fair fighting. "Hey diddle de diddle, the cat and the fid dle, The cow Jumped over the moon," and if the' dish didn't run away with the spoon, "the cow and the moon" ran away with the audience on last Monday night, when this burlesque and comedy was the I attraction at the Grand. It was the same old thing, but a little better. A few new jokes and merrier anurews, bright costumes and the pret tiest bunch of hottentots that ever camo to town. If you have never seen The Cow anil the Moon, look them up. They are not so blaac as you might suppose?at least the bunch that accompanies them is not. The transformations are splendid, and for an hour of fun and frolic you can't beat it. The manager is to be complimented on the success of his entire performance. A Most Interesting Letter. Congressman Aiken, while handling a pension claim recently, came across a let ter from a participant in the naval battle of Santiago, Cuba, which gives a graphic description of the battle. The writer was on the Brooklyn and the letter was writ ten and post marked on the Brooklyn the day of the battle: "Schley's Own Brooklyn, ; July 8rd, 1899. My dear Tis simply glorious,glorious, and what's more Sampson was not in it. We have captared, destroyed and otherwise muti lated the Spanish squadron. Dewey's was a victory, but ours a victory indeed; Dewey had a tin fleet to whip; while we have over come the pride of the Spanish navy. Sampson has captured a few loads of lum ber, and to judge by the number of harm less fishermen that he has added to his list of prisoners, is withal a good fisherman, but he did not know how to take the Span ish fleet. The Brooklyn and Oregon have this day sunk, one vessel, set flre to and driven ashore three, (the Oquendo, Viscaya and Maria Theresa) and captured the Christobal Colon, taking Admiral Cervera with all, his officers and men prisoners, (value in all estimated at $22,000,000). The New York (Sampson's flagship) did not flre one shot. jQhe rest of the ships around in the DiocKaae oegau m luo ugub, uui tuc Oregon is the only one that could keep up with us, and'for fully three-quarters or an hour the entire Are of all the Spanish ships were oonoentrated on the Brooklyn. My God, how the shot and shell rained around usjf on one of our broad-sides It beat the water <nto a perfect foam, and as they struck, the ship, the sounds of their exploeions mingled with the steady roar of our oaunon must have sounded like thun der in Hades. We esonped with only one man killed. How it was possible to do so is beyond human ken. This one man was a Chief Yeoman, too, boy, I mightoall him, though he was married and haul one child, and to xay that he was devoted to his wife and buhy but meagerly describes bis affection. Standing at his nost, a most dangerous one, he fell with his faoe to the foe. Am too tired and hurried to go into de tails touight; am writing this with the hopes that a mail will leave tomorrow."

GRAHAM'S PROPOSITION TO RELEASE CONVICT HIRE Columbia, Feb. 23.?The committee, con sisting of Senator Crosson and Messrs. Daniel and Bowman, reported that it had a proposition from Capt.J. M. Graham, on wnich he would abandon his present con tract for convict labor at the hosiery mill. Capt, Graham made two proposition: First, "With a cash payment of forty thousand dollars ($40i000) and be allowed to work the contract as tiow In force for the space of six (6) months Irom the first day of March. 1912, to August 31,1912 if so much be neces sary, for the purpose of winding up ray pre sent contacts of goods sold and years bought." Proposition 2. 'Tor a title deed to the old dispensary property, situated in the city of Columbia and be allowed the same time as above for winding up present con tracts, if so much be necessary. Under either of the above propositions I agree to work the labor under the same terms as under the prosent contract. (Signed) J. M. Graham." concerning uouras. There was an ancient gourd exhibited at the last Fair, which was over 100 years old, a large soap gourd. The gourd at present In question is a Revolutionary gourd. It was owned by Edwin Vass, n Revolutionary soldier, who died after the war at the age of 95 years. He lies buried near the borne of Mr. Charlton Sondley, two miles south of Abbeville. Mr. Vass left his gourd to James Edward Stevenson In the year 1854. When Mr. Stevenson went to the war he gave the gourd to Mrs. S. R. Carlisle, Sr. James Ikiward Stevenson was killed at the battle of Sharpsburg, at the surrender. Mrs. Carlisle has kept the gourd ever slnco. It was In a perfect state of preser vation. It was used as a shot-pouch by the first ownerj Farmers Union Meeting. Mr. E. W. Dabbs, President of the Farm ers Union in South Carolina, will be in Abbeville Wednesday, March 13th. A meeting will be arranged for 12 o'clock of that day and it is oarnestly desired that Union men from all over the county will be present. People have >mmenced to buy their fertilizer; planting time will soon be on and there should be some concert of ac tion on the part of the farmers at this im portant season. All farmers, union and non-union, should be present and the rest of the public as well. A. F. Calvert, President. C. J. Britt, Secretary.

These popular tires are 10 yer cent oversize which easily adds from 20 to 25 percent to the tire mile age. This oversize is not, raeasued by calipers, but by air bapacity. As these tires have 25 per cent greater a^r capacity, and hence that much more load carrying cayacity, without additional weight or cost for the tires, it should be plain to all why we find so much enthusiam over our tire equipment among buyers of Beo the Ffifth. , ill CITIES I I MBIT CURES: New Root Juice Medicinc Creates Wide Interest by Its Strange Fower Over Disease. The ntarrling rapidity with which the fame of the new Root Juiueuiudi -* nf cine Qua traveled seem? mno m. >. ?. marvelous for although its strange power over disease has been known but a short time, reporis from people in many cities, praising it to the t-kies and deecribing the most phenomenal cnree, are coming from every where. D Z"ns of people here in town who were among the first to obtain rhe medicine at the drug stores, are now telling of benefits that have been de rived from itfi us?. Oil every hand one may hear stories that seem almost incredible and yet the persistency with wlrci such re ports are made seem to dispel auy doubts concerning the remarkable mer it of discovery. From ail reports, t he Root Juice x wrts a powerful curative mtfu. m-e up on the digestive and secretory organs and some of those who have tried it say they can scaicely get enough to eat and that the stomach seems abln to digest anything. Itetops indigestion, belching, the formation of gas on the stomach and pains after meals, in a Rnrnrittiuur manner and its continued use fur a abort time strengthens and Jones the stomach ho that indigestion is soon forgotten. Rheumatic suffer ers, too, declare that the effect of ih* medicine on sore, swollen, aching iimbaatid joints i* wonerful and that the pain simply ceems to vanish. The following extracts from a few of the many recent reports will convey a good idea of the great results that are being obtained by its use in many ci ties over the country. F. Abel, Sey mour, Ind., "I have ut?ed the medicine with line results and know of many others it has helped." Albert Tim lick, Cautrall, III., "I have suffered yith stomach trouble two years. Wa* -i ? niirht when I Kf-nt for t$IUlU3t ucau wnt uigi.i. ? . Root Juice. After three or four dosen I felt much better. It has since work ed wonders for me." J. E. Ogden, St. Louis, Mo., "It is the best medicine J ever used and I have tried man.v kinds." Joe Battle, Moultrie, Oa., "I have tried Root Juice and received more benefit than from any medicine I ever used." Other similar report> have come from Carrlngton, N. Dab., Anderxon, Ind., Kane, Pa., Chicago. III., Harrisonburg, Va., Springfield, 111., Beilefoutaiue, Ohio, aud many other cities in all parts of the United States. Inasmuch as a large bottle holding nearly a pint can be obtained at anj drug store or direot from the Root Juice Laboratories at Fort Wayne, Ind,, for only one dollar, it would srem advisable for auy suffering per son to gixe it a thorough test.

Thursday, Washington's birthday, was not recognized or celebrated by anyone here excepting the Rural Mail carriers, who rested from their labors as such and spent the day as best suited their inclina tions. Mr. J. 8. Fowler of Anderson spent Tuesday in this place looking aftor some of his interests. Mr. and Mrs. Marion Latimer moved to Anderson last week, the first named hav ing entered into business arrangements in that place, which made the change of home necessary. We are, sorry Indeed, that these, our young citizens who had gotten so firm a hold upon the good will and esteem of all our people, found that self Interest called them elsewhere. Mrs. Hugh Armstrong of Honea Path spent several days iasc ween at mis ner old home among her relatives and many friends. Dr. J. D. Wilson received a phone mes sage Friday from I va, saying that his ven erable father-in-law, living at that place was very ill. He and Mrs. Wilson at once went to minister to the sick. Mr. M. McCord, from beyond Abbeville and Miss Macey Bell, second daughter of Mr. Jas. H. Bell, three miles out, were united in marriage at the home of the bride at 9:30 a. m. by Rev. J. C. Chandler, Wednesday last. It was a very quiet 1 wedding, only some of the nearest kin be ing present. Miss Macey was quite popu lar with our people, who regretted to give her up. Yet we do not complain, so we hope that our loss will bo her gain. Last week's report of the writer, as pub lished, made hint say, that our third and last snow was 12 inches deep, when it should have been one and a half (1 1-2) inches.
