There coi, be little doubt that
majority of the democratic voters <
South Carolina favor Wm. J. Brya
ior president. That may be becau;
lie is better known than any othi
democrat and because he has visitc
South Carolina several times an
many of our people have heard hi
and have met him and lie is a lit
character and a very able man. It
alright and proper for the county coi
ventions to endorse him for the nom
nation and it will he entirely propc
for the State convention to do so hi
we d<> not think it would be wise t
try to bind the delegates to the Ni
tional convention by instructions. Lt
rlif convention send delegates to Dei
ver in whom the democracy has coi
fidence and let them know who is th
preference but leave them free tovot
forworn other candidate if after the
go I to the national convention the
are convinced that by the nornim
tion of some one else there will 1)
greater probability of success for tli
ticket in the election.
We do not know aud no one can te
what conditions may be when the m
tional convention meets, and w
sliuulil not lie the hands of our del',
ga I cs, further I ban by an expressio
of our choice.
Whoever is nominated by the coi
wnl ion will receive the vote of Soul
<'aroliua.
REDUCE ACREAGE.
We print a second article from M
I. A. Taylor, president of the Nalioi
il dinners unsocialion, urging II
fanners fo reduce I heir acreage i
coiiun an<| if iliey have planted mm
than they should to lei some remai
mi w orked. The II .'raid and News h;
iirued lliis from tim,. (<? time and no
onl\ <|e>ires In i';i 11 the attention ?
the fanners to I Ire reasons given li
Mr. Taylor fur 111. advice which )
oilers. 11 is good advice and if fo
lowed the farmers could tix the pri?
of cotton ami .net for il something i
lire neighborhood of what il costs I
irrow it. Do not conclude that n
your neighbors are going to redui
ihe acreage and you will get the a<
vantage of l-he advanced price on i
increased acreage. Cooperation
necessary.
We began in last Friday's Hera
and News the publication of ;i sloi
written by Mrs. Kthel Thomas,
AVest Knd. This story appeared
The Herald and News some years ai
but il is a good slorv and will bej
repeating. We shall from time
time during the summer run a stoi
from the pen of Mrs. Thomas. SI
writes well and her stories all have
good moral lesson.
We call the attention of our fan
ers to ihe article in this issue on 11
subject of stock raising in South Ca
olina by W. W. IVice and ask tin
they look at the figures given by tl
government. .lusi think of a lilt
Slate like South Carolina sending oi
ev.-ry year ijst.OOO.OlH) lor horses at
innIes and Irving to raise cotton f<
less llian cost (o pay for lliein. \\
could raise a great many of Ihe;
horses and mules right here and i
greater profit than we grow cot to
Dul lliis is not all. Not only do v
s-ml this la rye sum oul of the K|a
lor horses and mules but we also sen
off for the bay and corn to feed thei
lliis we should and can grow rigl
here. Not only would il be well f<
South Carolina to reduce Ihe aereai
in cotton in order to secure belli
prices, but we should do il for 11
purpose of giving more attention i
slock raising and to the growing <
corn and hay with which lo feed tl
stock.
Another mailer thai should ha1
the attention of our fanners is 11
.raising of cattle. It is a very dil
cult matter to secure native beef ai
uiosl ot t iiat that is sold in our mar
els is Western beef. We believe
would pay to raise more beef cattl
These are mailers our farmers shou
consider.

May this meeting give you pleasure
May you each be filled with joy,

As when you were a Dixie boy.
And today when Dixie's rendered

Blindness and the Dummy.
A bespect aclcd old gentleman who
had' wandered into a department store
downtown several days ago approached
a floor walker and with an irate
look in his nearsighted eyes said:
"1 want to know why you don't
discipline your young ladies."
The floor walker was slightly puzL'd
/.led.
" Discipline them?" he asked. "I
don't quite understand. What for?"
re "\ou see that young * lady over
there?" explained the old gentleman
ir. pointing in the direction of a demure
cloak model. Tire floor walker immc- j
diately saw the object, but said noth- j
ing, and retained a wonderful gravity
of expression.
y; "'I asked, her to show me the way
to the shoe department," continued
the old gentleman, "and she only
smiled. Wouldn't even answer. It's)
nr disgraceful!"
I lie lloor walker said something
about "attending to the dummy" and
choked back a tear while he reverently
led the customer to the shoe department.?Washington
