EDITOR INTELMOENCEB: lt may bo of ni Loi uni IAJ mum) Ol tuc* ?J??.V* TiUMtCTH Ot your paper to bacome familiar with the viewa of a pupil, &; years of age, who at tended the "Politico Educational Circus," otherwise known as tho "Summer School," lately inaugurated in this State for the benefit uf a tew politicians who are ambitious for office, at the wm? time avsiling themselves of the opportunity to feel the pulse of the public, thereby edu cating themnelves on the sentiments of the people. Eliminating further oriticism on the scope, object sud results of thia educational organization, the writer feels gratified over the results in Anderson, where a very earnest spirit for a purer Democracy is manifesting itself, as de veloped on that occasion after the arrivsl of Senator McLaurin. 8ince the junior Senator has been absent from the State, *vweral of the professors of that faculty idsorted to ridiculing, sneering and abusing "little JohnnyV Democracy becauae he could not be present to reply when 1,000 miles away, but when "little Johnny" reached Anderson In time to faca tbeae groundleaa and unjust charge?, he placed bia (?attling gun in position to shoot at the mark, and lo! such hita, ev ery ehot right to the center, HO inuob HO that the majority of thone liatoning went away ' satisfied in their own minda that Sanator Mci - iii ri ti 1H a better, abler nod more acceptable Democr<u than those who ure culling bim a Kitnit lican. The lirst speaker atibe opening of the forenoon school aga*nat expansion was Col. Ilempblll, of Chester, H. C., wiio, al though a very brilliant and lluent Hpeak er, val ked right iuto tho trap ho thought hs bad Hot for tho opposition. Among otner IPI nuirons idle assertions he ridi culed the idea of expansion aa conceived by the commercial Damocrata, by citing the insignificant sum often million dol lars hoing the entire amount exponed to China from this country during the year 1900 amongst four hundred million Chi nese; while to Canada, embracing a pop ulation of live million people, we export ed one hundred million dollara during the aame year. Hy this comparison C^l. 1 lom[ihill intended to show the fallacy of expanding our commerce 10,000 m i Icu awr?y, when bolter cuatomerH are to be bsd adjoining our territory. Now let us study the comparison and seethe force behind it. In the tirat place, thero ia no analogy between the Anglo-Saxon and Mongolian races; tho former hm been living under agovernmont that baa for the past two centuries or moro "expanded" Ita inllu enoe for a higher and more enduring civ ilization, that enlightens, uplifts and cul tivates nobler aspirations, making exis tence loftier, thereby creating a demand for tho necessities that the inferior races know nothing about, hence, the efliclen oy for creating wealth is greater, and the desire to use more of the luxuries of life increases with the ability to produce it. The Inferior race on the other band has been held back for thousands of yeara through misguided primitive teachings and customs of their fathers, by keeping upa wall around the Empire, and refus ing to enter into commercial relations with other nations. This is practically the concluaion of the anti-expanalonlat who olinga to tradition, claiming that we can, Independent of any other nation, succeed without an effort. The hollow talk about the Democracy of our fathers is only appoaling to a tender chord in in tho heart of a man who usually hires others to do their thinking. If our fath ers were still with ua would they still ride in an ux-team in preference to an elegant vost i hu lo train? Would they Htill separate the cotton used from the lint by means of their fingers? Would they thrliten the life of tue manor woman who made uso of an organ, cornet, violin, ilute or 'cello ina placo of worship be cause their fathers were opposed to such fandaugied notions, being the work of the devil? Why, tuen, talk about our fathora, since it ia only conjecture what they would do with an "If." 8ince the beginning of the century applied science has transformed tho world. Amongst the advanced nations the great wave of industrial expansion which follows in ita wake ia slowly but inevitably submerg ing the old landmarks and tho experi ence of the past ia no longer a reliable guido. If the Canadian, being under higher conditions, can spend 920.00 per capita, while the Mongolian, who, on ac count of primitive methods, false notions and practices, can only spend 40centaper - capita, does that argue, when onr civili sation has been embraced by the Celes tials, that onr trade conditions will cot improve or justify an effort? Since the open door policy, or more plainly apeak ing, "expansion," 1B a new creed spread ing in China, the ratio of increase from an inferior to a higher mode of existence, will improve that race as it haa other races, and that in the course of another generation, the want, the ambition and need of the Mongolian will in proportion as he progresses? Any one doubting this let them look around? in their own neighborhood and contrast the condition nf the negro of to day with the negro ot :>5 years ago. Evolution will never change his color, but it has changed his condition from a lower to a higher modo of existence, learning through experience the lesson of and fora better life, more use fulness, and where ?he efforts for pro gress have been properly employed, the reward baa usually been commensurate with his efforts In the Btruggle for higher citizenship. What a conglomeration of nonsense by supposed-to-be intelligent men, ox-Congressmen st that, to enunci ate euch dogmas as anti-expansion, whloh practically and to all intents und purpo ses means blocking or stopping the wheela of progress, by saying that aa in dividuals, communities, states or aa a na tion we nave grown enough, and lt is time to stop. If I were to-day to an nounce to a large assembly of reasonable men that I have become a convert to Christian science, whioh declares that a good Creator could not make and imper fect universe, and, therefore, sickness, poverty and oy il are nothing bm habit ual delusions of tho human mind. Ev erything la mind, Mrs. Eddy teachen in her book "Sclenoe and Health, with Key to the Scriptures."

Sullivan Hardware Co. have a regular Wholesale Department, and since opening same their trade ha9 increased in volume von? rapidly, lathis age of sharp competi tion, m or o h au ts are looking more closely after prices, and they are finding, that they can buy at wholesale from this house cheaper than by sending their orders ?way from home and paying freights.

It is mach more satis factory for merchants to buy in a borne market when they can save money bv do ing so, and that is what Sullivan Ilard ware Co. propose to do for their trade.
