May 2nd. 1912 at his home near Man

his fellow man exemplifying an humble
Christian life. He has gone from

of maturer years. He leaves a devoted
Christian wife that made his home,
sweet home and the first station this
side of paradise. May God's richest d
blessing sustain the bereaved widow in
her sad afiliction. and may she see be
yond this vale of tears the kindly hand a
of a precious Saviour. Three brothers
and three sisters still live all Christians

I would like to know who is paying
1r. -T. J. Cantey to make such foul a
lasts on Jones' horn as he did last
veek. He seems to' be gone astray, or
,he moon has got in its work upon his 3
wer-taxed brain judging from the JO
anguage he used. One would judge P
,hat the whole of Summerton are f
rones men, or some of them would in- b
orm Mr. Cantey that there are many l.v
n that town who are do not agree with tb
im in characterizing them as "damn h
ouls." I am yet to believe that the Of
)eople of Summerton are any different w
rom the general run of the well behav- tI
d of other places. I do not think it It
vould be healthy for Mr. Cantey to u]
'ome to Davis Station and make use of H
uch words for some of the boys would dE
rovide a dentist with a job soon after. su
Ve have some Jones men here too, but mi2
boy are sensible gentlemen who would ut
ot think to call those "damn fools" just o0
ecause they differ with them in politics. ni
f Mr. Cantey wants to swell the Jones m
arty he will ha've to go at it in some al
ther way, abuse neighbors gets noth- P<
3g for anyone or anything. There are L
ast as good Jones men as those who di
re going to vote for Blease regardless CE
I the opinion of Mr. Cantey. Blease P2
-as elected two years ago by a majority of
f the white voters of the State, and it
rould take convincing argument to sa
iske me believe that the majority of pc
ais people are "damn fools." This it;
,me majority is going to elect him th
gain. yo
Mr. Cantey, politics is a queer thing an
3 this day and time, but I have seen m
b.e day when we one-gallused wool- th
atterz were led to the polls by some of in
he old-liners, they would write our iaS
ickets and vote us as they pleased, se
ben we were fools sure enoug h, but tbat di
ay is eone and the people are doing ca
heir own independent thinking, thank B
od. You know there are some of Mr.
antey's kind of "damn fools" who
aink they can vote as they please, dc
nd I am one of these. I will vote for he
ole L. Blease for Governor if I live to al
e the day, and will ao all I can to get c
iy friends to do the same. SO
Now as to the voters of Newberry I in
o not know many of them, but the few pr
do know are gentlemen as good as we ev
ave in Clarendon and as intelligent. ob
ad they too are going to vote for Gov- ar
rnor Blease. th

is a pity there are such creatures
)on this earth, but in the wisdom ol
im who doeth all things well, He
emed it wise to put upon this earth
ch as J. J. Cantey-it is one of the
vsteries that human kind has beer
table to fathom, not. even with the aid

ake researches. Man has invented a
achine called the X Ray which gives
insight to the human system, it even
netrates the rocks and lays bare the
ings within, but there has never been
scovered any reason why this J. J.
Ltey WaS brought here to pester a
.tient public with his insolent abuse
those who differ with him.
Mr. Editor, I may be pardoned for
ying that I am surprised at you for
rmitting this creature to use profan
r in your newspaper, but I suppose
at you reason it out on the line that
u are conducting a public newspaner
d it is for all kinds of people, or you
y have permitted it becauso you saw
at the language he used was in keep
with a great many who have the
me political views, but have too much
nse to publicly express themselves as
I this Summerton lawyer. I do not
re how a man votes whether he is for
ease or Jones, it is his own business,
d his right to vote as he pleases, but
ien be says I am a -fool because I
not see fit to vote as he does I hope
will not give me his opinion person
y, 'as I might be tempted to do as a
usin of mine did on one occasion in
mter-resort to kicking; it is a fail
of the Raffield family to kick to ex
ess their objections, in fact, almost
erybody registers a kick when they

erefore I say that I hope Mr. Cantey
11 not repeat in my presence his opin
1 of those who vote for Blease. I am
ing to vote for Governor Blease, be
se I am sure the man is deserving a

wer to prevent him from carrving out
; promises to the people, they not only
I this, but they bave attempted to rob
n of his character, and they are daily
.empting to besmirch the characters
those who have faith in him. I am
ing to vote for Blease because the
:islature converted itself into a polit
,1 conspiracy to defeat him, and I am
going to vote for a man who was a
^ber of that body who lent himself
this contemptible outrage. The pea.

Sof every Blease supporter in the
inty.
do not think the Bieaseites are go
Sto let those fellows slip in, even if
Jonesites have centered upon their

ice the Jonesites have only three

them has been instructed to 'close

y did in the county convention, but
Blease men are not asleep and they
are going to know who to vote for

Sin or sneaked their way in, but
Len it comes to the vote every Blease

as will those from whom they get ad

Color Analysis.
It is rather interesting to know how
a color can be briken up into its con
stituent parts. Take. for instance,
mauve or nile gren. low can.any one
tell just what different colored lights
Compose such a color? It is all done
with the prism. that wonderful little
three sided piece of glass used iu spec- -
troscopes and other instruments. It is I
-one on the same principle as the
analysis of sunlight is accomplished by
little particles of water in showing the
rainbow. There are only seven pri
mary lights. If sunlight containing all
colors falls on a red object all the col- -
ars but red are absorbed, the red being
refjected to our eyes, so we say the ob
ject Is red. The prism will not split
up red into any other colors, for it is a
primary color. So Is blue. But if pur
ple be tried we get two colors apart,
blue and red. We do not find- purple
In the spectrum, so any color not found
In the spectrum of sunlight is known
to be a compound one. It can always
be analyzed by the prism.-St. Louis
Republic.
Lincoln and Sumner. r
Lincoln was modestly proud of his
stature and of the efect of the phys
kal man, especially when actuated by
noble sentimeuts. He used to speak of
his height to every tall man he met
and to propose measuring, another
guileless habit of self gratification.
The only refusal he is known to have
received was from Charles Sumner, d
who was also tall and proud of his
height. Sumner was worrying the pres
ident, as he often did, about some per
plexing matter when Lincoln abruptly r
challenged him to measure. "Sumner
declined." said Lincoln. "making a line
speech about this being the time for .j
uniting our fronts against the enemy
and not our backs. But I guess he I
was afraid, though he is a good piece
of a man. I have never had much to
do with bishops where I live: but, do
you know. Sumner is my idea of a
bishop."-Harper's We-ekly.
Didn't Know How Happy He Was. r
George Arliss, himself a Britisber, P
delights In telling stories about his
countrymen. especially of the 'Arry
and 'Arriet type.
"One day." says he, -I was on Hamp
stead heath and heard the following C
conversation between these purely
English types:
"Said the man: 'Blow me, 'Arriet,
'ow tired I feel! Miserable too! Wish 0
I'd never been born! Now I've been t
born, wish I was dead again!'
"'W'at's the matter with yerT asked'
'Arriet. 'W'at yer grumblin' at? Why, .
w'at on earth would yer 'ave? Yer J
was drunk-. on Monday and again on -
Wednesday, and I'm blessed if yer
'aven't 'ad more than enough today!
If that ain't enough pleasure for yer r

"Martha's" Debt to the Cook. r
Writing of Friedrich von Flotow, the -
composer of "Martha," Dr. Adolf Ko- 0:
hut says that Flotow's parents intend
ed that he should enter the diplomatic d
service, but that- the love for music O
and the discovery of his talent changed -
the parental plans. Among the anec -
dotes which his biographer relates is .
this: "One day when 'Martha' was in
the making he said to me: 'I sat at the tI
piano and played over and over again .
a melody which I wanted to make use t
of. but in no form of the many which
I had given it did it appeal to me. Aft-.
er hours I arose in disgust and then
heard the cook on the other side of the
hail sing my melody, giving it a pe
cullar twist. That will be popular, I
said, wrote it down, and so it stands.'"
