The South Carolina Water Power
Edition of the Columbia Record, issnred
yesterday afternoon, is filled
with valuable information from cover

over the land.

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

be the first to kick out of traces en
account of the propositions to place
sugar on tbe free list 01 at least to
materially reduce the tariff on it.
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.

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.

Poultry Stiow.
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!
