In the race for governor "E very
boa j quarrels but Ansel, ard he
goes around smiling all day."
As viewed from a distance, the
slate campaign meetings appear
. to be petering out. The crowds
?grow smaller and the speeches
shorter.
The Spartanburg Herald says
that the farm lalor of that county
is far less demoraliz9d under pro
hibition than while the dispensa
ry was in operation.
South Carolina still holds sec
r- ond place in the matter of cotton
manufacturing. A recent bulletin
issued by the census bureau snows i
that there are about 3,000,000]
spindles and 75,000 looms in
operation iu this state. *
As the campaign is being con
ducted at present the daily papers j
are "getting decidedly the advan
tage. Thej devote a very limited
epace to the speeches, while so.ne
of the candidates devote most of
their time to "cuspia" the. press,
which is splendid advertising for
: the papers.
The young man who is strong in
mind and hedy, and who has
steady, sober habits, is the one
who ?B in demand. When a thor
oughly business "mau has a va
cancy to fill a?d advertises for ap
plicants, you will invariably'find
in his advertisement these words,
"only sober men wanted1', or "no
drinking man need apply " The
youDg man who forms the drink
habit voluntarily takes upou him
?elf t?4 weight that prevents his j
runnfag successfully the race that j
is set before him.

western railroad was recently
fined $40,000 and two officials
$10,000 each, making $00,000 that
this road will have to plank down
for violating the law. Such fines
as these will have much to do with
restraining the railroads from fla
grant violations of law.
Ministers And Politics.
The writer has never concurred
in the idea that ministers should
take no part or parcel in politics.
Oftentimes moral qaestipns arise,
the solution of which affect so
vitally the weal or woe of society,
that it becomes the unmistakable
aDd imperative duty of a minister
of the GoBpel-both as a minister
and as a citizen-to take an active
interest in politics. The Green
ville Mountaineer has the follow
ing to say bearing upon this sub
ject :
"To put it mildly, it ?6 always
provoking to us to hear a man say
that preachers should not dabble
in politics. One would think from
the way some men talk that a
preacher-was not a 'citizen in the
ordinary acceptation of the term,
and hence should not stoop to
mingle in "dirty politics;" that a
minister is something more than
an ordinary man,-a religious
leader, as it were, who should
stand aloof from matters of earth
and'concern himself merely with
the spiritual side of affairB. There
may be some ministers who take
that view of it, but we believe
there are precious few of them who
are now of that opinion. We dou't
believe ministers ought to be poli
ticians in the ordinary accepta
tion of the word "politician", but
they should, be leaders of the peo
" pie, leading them to higher and
nobler things, to a better realiza
tion of their duties as citizens. If
ministers would lake more inter
est in politics, if th? people would
follow their advice and leader
ship and not be BO glib about
swallowing the words of some
scheming, dirty politicians who
have no use for them except the
vote they can give as an aid to
their own glorification, we are!
sure the days of "dirty politice"!
Would be numbered. There is such
? thing as clean politics but to j
have such we must follow leaders!
whose every word and deed is
above reproach. Let the preachers,
take a hand and we are quite eur?)
there will be purer politics in
South Carolina. When wo hear a!
man expressing regrets that
minister meddles in politics, we
are quite sure we have spotted one|
who does not wish to see any im
provement, it suits him too well
M it is. The preacher belongs to j
a higher class than ha."
