The Augusta Chronicle says Ted
has degenerated into a cheap
politician. Was he ever any thing
?lse?
The man who can speak eloquent
ly can please a large number of peo
ple, but he who is a'good listener
-can even please more.
The suspicious man never has any
real comfort, for he is either sus
pecting nril of others or else cred
its others with thinking evil of him.
No person is responsible for more
good than is within the s**ope of his
ability, but to that extent he is
responsible. How great one's scope
is can never be found without test
ing.
Unless a great change in political
conditions take place between now
and then, the Democrats of New
Tort will bury Roosevelt and Hearst
. in the same political grave on Tues
day, November 8. ?
;It may be a far cry from the sen
ate just inaugurated in China as
part of. her. government to our free
representative institutions, but it is
at least a step forward and shows
that even the most fossilized of As
iatic nations are feeling the impulse
?of western civilization.
Americans are great spendthrifts.
If they make money fast they also
spend it fast. A financial journal
investigating the estates of 50,000
people, all of whom had large in
comes, finds that only 2,000 of the
number left property, after the es
tates were settled, of more than $5,
000. ?
The New York World, having
been charged by Roosevelt of being
in the foy of Wall Street, challenges
him to show up books with it and
see who has revived the most mon
World, ^nie challenge will be ig
nored, of course, for the best' rea
sons.
It is a matter for rejoicing that
the. census returns, show that the
gain in population is so general and
not confined to one or two sections
It means that the whole country
shares in the great prosperity which
this increase indicates and that fur
ther development will continue to be
national and not sectional.
"Keep me and this buik clean"
was the prayer of an old Scotchman
in starting business which in after
years grew to large proportions. The
same prayer if more widely followed
would mean fewer false ledgers,
cooked accounts and false weights
and measures. There is a crying
need in some quarters for an old
fashioned business honesty.
Those people that imagine that
the British government is becoming
socialistic will believe their view to
?be strengthened by the fact that it
has secured the en'tire telephone
system of the country with its half
a million subscribers and 18,000
employees. For many years the gov
ernment has owned the telegraphs
and if it handles the telephone as
satisfactorily as it has the telegraph
the people will have good reason
to be glad.
Why is it that so many violaters
of 'the customs consist of wealthy
manufacturers who have ma'de their
wealth throug hthe advantages the
tariff has given them? One would
think that gratitude, if not patriot
ism, would lead them to declare the
goods they bring home with them
from foreign countries instead of
seeking to struggle them. Evidently
they do net want to do for the coun
try what they are glad to have the
country do for them.
The Cook-Peary controversy and
the Elkins-Arbuzzi engagement or
non-engagement will not down. Ap
parently the public is indebted for
this to the fertile imagination
and pen of the foreign correspon
dents and reporters of the large city
dailies. The only way to settle it is
for Cook to produce his proofs, if
he can, and for the principals in the
other affair to marry each other
or some other persons. Then and
not till then may we expect the "in
cident closed."
Apparently most of the recent
disasters that have resulted in so
great a loss of life have been due
to carelessness or neglect of orders.
No protection against accident and
no regulations, however stringent,
can avail to any extent unless those
who have the carrying out of those
orders properly perform their du
ties. If human life were held in
higher regard and the sense of re
sponsibility for the safety of others
more deeply ingrained there would
fce far fewer tragedies and bereaved
Jaomes.
v How Their Vot*?s Hurt.
The overshadowing issue in the
present national campaign is the tar
iff. It is the only-issue that the
Democratic party has won a national
victory since the war. It was this is
sue upon which the Democrats won in
Maine, and It is" upon this* Tssu'e
that the Republican party has splic
into two factions. As the State says
from the Democratic viewpoint it is
pitiable that the attitude toward pro
tection of many Southern Democrats
r?looking for" a dollar instead of
supporting a principle?has weaken
ed the party as a leader in tariff re
form and given insurging Republi
cans tenable ground on which to de
fend themselves as the most reliable
opponents of protection.
?When these Democrats deserted
their, party last year and voted with
the Republican machine in opposi
tion to the principles of their par
ty, The Times and Democrat de
clared that these individual acts of
desertion of party principles would
be visited against the party as a
whole in the next campaign, and the
failure of the party to stand its
ground would be thrown into the
faces of Democrats throughout the
North and West. That prediction is
being daily verified. And now comes
Collier's Weekly, independent, but
powerful champion of tariff reform,
declaring for Insurgents as against
Democrats. Here is the reason Coll
ier gives for preferring the Insur
gents to the Democrats': * ,
Whereever an Insurgent is the
Republican nominee, he should he
elected. The Insurgents, as a body,
represent the most wholesome and
vital political movement in th? '
United States at this time.
A Republican majority in Con
gress, if that majority is dominat
ed by the Insurgents, as now seems
probable, holds out more prom
ise of real tariff revi?iQn down
ward than a Democratic majority.
The Democratic National Con
vention at Denver in July, 1908,
put this plank in their platform:
"We demand the immediate re
peal of the tariff on wood pulp,
print paper, lum'ber, timber and
logs, and that- these articles be
placed upon the free list."
The Democratic orators thrust
this plank forward in all the
doubtful States. In the Middle
West it was a popular battle-cry;
it is not too much to presume
that the scant 4,102 votes by
which Bryan carried Nebraska
were due to this plank.
In April, 19v9, less than a year
later, the Democrats had a chance
to make good. In framing the
tariff bill, an amendment was in
troduced providing for free lum
ber. That amendment was defeat-,
ed by a vote of 200 to 181?ard
38 of the Congressmen who^^rjted
against free lumber werf?-'Demo
crats. They were: /**"
?From Geo r g i a--*^E d w a r d s,
Griggs, Adamson.. -Livingston, Le.?,
?From North Carolina?Small,
Thomas, Pou, Godwin, Page,
Webb.
From Virginia'?Glass, Lamb,
Lassiter, Maynard,, Saunders.
iFrom Louisiana?Est o p i n a 1,
Broussard, Watkins, Ransdell,
Wrickliffe, Pujo.
From Mis sissippi?Bowers,
Dick son.
From South Carolina?Ellerbe,
Lever.
From Tennessee?Padgett, Gor
don, 'Moon.
From Alabama?Taylor, Hob
son.
?From Florida?Sparkman, Mays
iFrom Pennsylvania?Wilson.
From Texas?Dies, Gregg.
If these thirty-eight Democrats
had not deserted their party to
vote with the Republican machine,
free lumber would have won by
a vote of 219 to 162. Only one
of these thirty-eight Democrats
comes from north of the Mason J
and Dixon line. Of course these
Democrats voted for a duty on
lum?ber because it was for them
a local home industry?Which
is exactly the same reason why the
Pepublicans voted for high duties,
and under the sufficient explana
tion of our high tariff. Many of
the Democrats were perfectly frank
about it. Clark of Florida, for ex
ample, said:
"If you put what my people
want in the bill, if you give them
protection against Cuba on pine
apples, and give them protection
against the pauper labor of Egypt
on long-staple cotton, and take
care of their lumber and all these
things, then you may put what
you please in it."
I No honest man can blame Collier
for favoring Insurgent victory rath
er than Democratic victory. It will
be seen that when the Democrats
had the chance to put lumber on
the free list thirty-eight of them
deserted their party to vote with the
Republican machine. To our shame,
be it said, that thirty-seven of these
deserters were Southern Democrats.
Only one Northern Democrat, to
their honor be it said, deserted his
party and voted with the thirty
seven Southern Democrats for a du
ty on lumber with the Republicans.
If the Democrats are defeated in the
election next month it can be laid
at the doors of the Southern Demo
crats who deserted their colors in
the presence of the enemy, and final
ly went over to them.
Making Great Progress.
The successful visit to this coun
try of the Irish parlimentary dele
gates who seek financial aid to help
Ireland win home rule calls atten
tion to the great progress in the
direction of home rule that has been
made in recent years. From the
time that Isaac Butt was the first
champion of the cause, up to the
present time the struggle has had
rts ups and downs, but on the whole
it has been upward. The great task
of convincing England, the "predom
inant partner," that home rule for
Ireland is right in both principle and
policy has been accomplished, and
the goal is now;in sight. The one
remaining obstacle is the house of
lords and, the impending drastic re
form of that body will clear the
way. Home rule for Ireland will
probably be followed by home rule
all around, by which is meant legis
latures Jin England, Scotland and
Wales to deal with questions partic
ularly affecting those countries as a
parliament on College Green will

AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES.
% - %
Clemson Will Cooperate at State Fair
at Columbia, Oct. 31 to Nov. 4.
That the agricultural resources of
the State are to be fully exhibited at
the State fair this year is shown by
the fact that Clemson college has
consented to aid the society In mak
ing attractive the annual collecting of
the field crops.
In addition to the aid secured
from Clemson college, the agricul
tural schools of the State, the fair
authorities are very anxious for farm
ers to send samples of their products
for exhibit. Encouraging letters have
been received from every section of
the State showing interest in this
department and the superintendents
say that they hope this year's outlay
of field crops will rival all other de
partments' efforts.
During the summer Prof. J. N.
Harper, director of the Clemson ex
periment station, has been soliciting
exhibits and their work has been
crowned with success. In this work
Prof. Harper was aided by his asso
ciate professors at Clemson. When
the State fair opens, October 31, Prof.
Harper and those who are working
with him, will be here to make an at
tractive arrangement of the articles
and samples of crops sent here. Clem
son college will have a large exhibit,
but nothing from the college will be
in competition with individual ex
hibits. O ?
The premium list In the field crops
department has been arranged in an
entirely new manner this year. The
first prize for best display of farm
products is $75, second prize $26.
The dates for the fair at Columbia
are: October 31, November 1, 2, 3, 4.
First Father is Cured of an Erup

nf a-Distressing Rash.
Neighbors Pleased to Find a Sure
Cure for Skin Afflictions.
"I suffered for eight years with what the
doctors called the 'seven year itch.' Thli
was like small red pimples such as form on
the face but they burned and itched, day and
night. These pimples were from my ankles
up, but mostly on my thighs and arms. I
tried doctor after doctor but their medicines
brought no relief. But at last I struck the
right treatment ? this was Cutlcura. I
bought a set of the Cutlcura Remedies ? Cu
ticura Soap, Ointment and Pills ? and a few
applications brought relief. When I had used
about half the set I was nearly cured and after
using two full sets I was well und best of all, I
have stuyed cured.
"About four months ago, our baby began
to be covered with a rash and his head with &
spreading sore. Back of the ears, the flesh
cracked open and the poor baby would
scratch till It bled. He worried, cried and
could not sleep. Then we bought a set of
Cuticura and with a few applications tie
burning and itching ceased, baby steppjd
worrying and could sleep. Whenthls sffiiUe
set had gone we had no use for any more as
baby was never troubled with the disease
again. The neighbors who saw the condition
of the baby all asked what cured him a id
when we told them, they were surprised a 3d.
pleased to find a sure cure for these sUn
afflictions. Edward H. Carter, 323 North
