CIRCULATION 2,300. The South Carolina Water Power Edition of the Columbia Record, issnred yesterday afternoon, is filled with valuable information from cover . to cover and it should be eent broadcast over the land.

Governor Brown for Dowling. Jhis ia a case of "yon kill my dog and I'll toll yonr cat." Some of the brethren are falling over each other in the effort to slobber over the Columbia State because that paper has announced its determination to di30->ntinu9,advertisemenfcs for whiskey houses.. Since the Dispatch was oatablished years ago it has consistently and persistently declined to accept ad- j yertisements from whiskey hcnses. It was made a. rule then and it has been religiously adheared to this day . President Wilson's administration has so far given general satisfaction. Nothing but words of- commendation have gone out from his friends and partizans concerning his administration of the affairs of State and they are deserving, too, at that. "Yet there are breakers ahead of him and they are grave ones at that and it will take a clear head and a ateadyhand to steer clear of them and anchor the pup of State safe into i (inhmnhlAil watorj AlrooHc rV?o nrtlifc. i yLJUVA?'uv/ivvk i.x'4 vuvaj i?uv ^/V*AV ical skies are darkening, the clouds are lowering *nd the mutterings of the -distant thunder is heard.

Other States who's chief industry will be affected by a low tariff will become recalcitrant and these, together with the Bull Mouses and the old line Republicans, can form a combination that will defeat any and every Democratic act that comes up for consideration. Watch and see. Lexington people cannot afford to lie supinely down and dream oL the great achievements they are going to accomplish in the hazy future while j the golden moments are fleeting by j bearing away with them opportunities which are knocking at our doors today. ",l -??? Krvifta na moll a a mix i'Q6 ttplflb U1 luo viuico) ao ncit ito uut own interest calls to us to be up and doing something in this age of frenzied commereialism if we expect to win out in life's great battle for existence. We could mention many industrial ente?prises witb inviting and attractive propositions that would strongly appeal to the sagacity of the capitalists, and which if properly and judiciously managed, would pave the way to fortune. Just at this time, however, we want to emphasize the claims of one of them in particular, and that is a cotton seed oil mill. . One of these mills Ms for years been in successful operation in several towns around us, and they have, so we have been informed, paid handsome dividends on the capital invested. Not one of them has failed within our recollection, and stands to reason that what others have done Lexingtonians can accomplisn. There is a large amount of cotton grown around Lexington and enough seed to supply the mill running at its utmost capacity i9 within easy access. Besides this such a mill located at Lexington would be of great convenience to the farmers who want to exchange their seed for meal. Thus they can save freight charges which every one knows who has had any dealings r with the railroads, is a big item. We throw out these suggestions in the hope that some one who is financially able will take up the matter and push it to a successful conclusion. The condition of Mr. Harman, the Senior Editor of the Dispatch, is not improved and he is still confined to his room. > Vllt J >re has there been s of the loom in n 5, Skirts, Shirtwaii T 7c; worth double Spring Suits. w and, worth-while model is n this gathering, which is uncomprehensive we have evei ection.

It is announced that Leesville is to j have a unique poultry show in the i open air sometime this fall. The main feature will be a chicken show but there will be other attractions to interest visitors. The promoters of the scheme have organized among whom aresome of the most enterprising citizens of that progressive little city. Prizes will be given for both fancy and mongrel stocks. The people over there are enthusiastic over the proposition. Ought to Paint I ought to have painted- last year, bat I hated to pay $2.25 a gallon. I've got to paint this year; it'll take a little more paint; I suppose 1 gallon in 10; and a little more work, I suppose 1 day in 10. My job would have cost last year about $52.50; it is going to cost this year $55. $2 50 gone. I suppose it'll be the same again, if I wait again. . What if paint goes-down to $1.75. a gallon? $2.50 on the job! I shan't wait; what a fool I was!
