Campaign Contribution* Needed. The Democratic party is the .party of the people and it must depend Upon' popular subscriptipns to raise money \vith which to cprfdU(ct the presidential and congressional campaigns. It can Vtnf rl nr\Anrl ?il- ^ ^ IIUI. uvpv-iiu IlUt want; and will not accept- contributions frohi the trusts and other lawless corporations as does the Republican party. This "being: tru6, a ringjDg call to the people was issued shortly after the Denver convention by Mr. Bryan urging an those who wished to see Democracy again enthroned at Washington, and who were able financially to do so, to come to the aid of the party by individual cash contributions. Generally throughout the country the responses have been quick'and the people have shown 'jby their contributions that the principles of the white man's party are as dear to the hearts of the masses'as ever. Of course, not one man in every hundred y.dio'can afford to help the party thifs bus yet (I0119 so: A vast sum of rrtoiicy ' is necessary to meet the legitimate expenses of a national campaign and Mr. Bryan and the national Democratic committee have hit upon ilu happy plan of asking the Democratic press?daily, weekly and SeiVd-weekly ? throughout the cduntry to open their columns ^for contributions. * The Fort Mill Times claims to be; above and beyond everything else, a Democratic paper?we believe in the righteousness of the principles of the party as we believe in few other things in this'old world. Consequently it aifordJ iig a great degree of pleasure to appeal to the readers of The Times to come forward with such contributions as they are able to make in this most worthy cause. This is the people's fight and the people must finance it. It is the fight of the masses against the same old gang of South-haters who four years ago robbed thousands of widows and orphans by plundering the treasuries of life- insurance companies that the most colossal faker since the down of Creation?Theodore Roosevelt? Vnight be given another lease of Official life to do the bidding ef such money magnates as J. Pier'pont Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, E. H. Harriman and Nelson W. Aldrich. The Times will make public announcement of every cent that is received and the money will be forwarded promptly to Governor Chas. N. llaskell, of Oklahoma, National Democratic Treasurer. There are scores and scores of Demo crats in this section of the State who are interested in the success of the party and who can afford to contribute to this fund. Will hot each and everyone of them subscribe something in aid of the party? Any amount above 25 cents will be received and acknowledged. It is somewhat singular that in selecting the 15 members of the State National Guard who will soon go to Camp Perry, Ohio, to participate in the interstate rifle ^Qntest, under control and direction of the Federal government, that only two members of the team are from the First regiment. The preliminary contest Was held in Charleston last week, ;with the result that the team is to be composed of 9 members of the Third regiment, 4 of the Second regiment and 2 of the First regiment. We do not charge that favoritism was shown in the selection of the team, but it is passing strange that such an overwhelming majority Qf good marksmen are members of the Third regiment, especially shifce it is a patent fact, admitted by disinterested military critics, that jn pnnt of efficiency the First regifnent is easily the supe^ rior of pith#?r of tho turn ntKflir , ? ? ?.W..?' W* VI IV/ H? V v/tuv I regiments. Strange that the First regiment has such poor marksmen. Perhaps they are not such poor marksmen after all, and it might be that a more accurate score of their shots could be kept if the preliminary contests were held hereafter in the upper part pf the State. Our Northern friend, the editor of the Rock Hill Record, is amazed, he says, at an editorial squib about the Saye road law which appeared in the last issue of The Times. He is also "curious to see what reason an intelligent newspaper man can give for opposing gbod roads." To satisfy the curiosity of our very inquisiIive neighbor, will say that we are ar from being opposed to good oads, having in our last issue iubllshed several short items ad's' * v... L< ""** .vocating better highways. As to j pur position on the Saye law, we , cannot say that we favor it in its . | entierty. One objection is that j the law provides for no exemption, another objection is the age limit of 18 to 55 ypars, ftnd another is that we do not consider the law practicable as it stands. Other reasons could be given for pur opposition to this particular good roads law. but as The Times is not in liae for lengthy controyersies over the blunders and misdoings of our law-makers, we hope that the foregoing reasons will have a soothing effect upon the "curiousness" of our Record friend. Should the Rev. Mr. Hurt, York county's preacher-candidate, succeed of election to the House, it will be interesting to see how a combination of religion and politics, of the York kind, will work together. Our business men should not allow filth and rubbish to accumulate in their back lots. Such things are breeders of disease. Will We Let the High School Go? As a result of the recent school election against issuing bonds for the improvement or renewal : of the school building, it is not unlikely that the Fort Mill graded I school will lose its high school department 9th and 10th grades. In a letter to Rev. E. S. Reaves, | chairman of the high school I aboard, Prof. W. H. Hand, of the University of South Carolina, who was instrumental in the establishment of the high school, asks for information as to the exact dimensions, etc., of the present building, and expresses the opinion that under present conditions it is extremely doubt-1 ful whether further State aid for the higher department can ^ j be had. Such an expression j coming from one who is as well : posted in State educational matters as Prof. Hand should cause i our people to bestir themselves and prevent such a public calam- ' ! ity. As stated in these columns a short time ago, it is our honest belief that the people of this district are perfectly willing to tax themselves for enlarging and re| modeling our school building. And it might be stated here as our opinion that the proposition ! would not have lost out in the 1 late election except for certain : ! unfortunate conditions existing in the school at that time. However, the future of the school . seems brighter, and would very much regret to see it take a ! step backward. The Times wishes to see im- i j provements made, whether or ; ' not the high school department is to be maintained, and that; 1 improvements are needed will be soen by anyone who will take j the trouble to visit the building. But it is useless to talk of this matter, as it has been fully discussed. What is now squarely before the patrons of the school is whether they will take steps to improve the building and continue the higher department or \ allow the building to remain as it | is and let the high school go. The Abuse of Blease. Editor The Times: Cole L. Blease, candidate for , governor, may have made mis! takes?who has not??but it: does not lie in the mouth of some 1 of those who have recently rushed 1 into print to criticise him. For instance, W. F. Stevenson, of Cheraw, makes serious charges in j his home paper against Rlease's ; honor, but he fails to tell the i people that he (Stevenson) while speaker of the house of representatives a few years ago was accused of using the influence of his great office in behalf of the Seaboard Air Line Railway in 1 matters which were up for con- i sideration by the house, the 1 charge against Stevenson being that he was at the time in the employ of the Seaboard as attor-J ney. The people of South Carolina rendered in no unmistakable terms their opinion of Stevenson i when he ran against Attorney General Gnnter n fow ( ? . ~ ? "JS'-'. and I submit that it is therefore up to Stevenson to keep under : cover. Furthermore, all this abuse of Blease will not take from him one vote. The people are onto the crowd that are de-; crying him. York county cannot, of course, elect the governor, but it will certainly give Blease a majority. Democrat. J. Henry Garrison, of Gray Court, who shot and killed J. L. Williamson because he caught him in improper conduct with Garrison's daughter, made the , greatest mistake of his life. The -evidence is that Williamson ex1 pected to marry the girl and had made business arrangements to that end. But even if he had not, Garrison might have found a better way out of the difficulty by compelling him to do so. By his rash act Garrison has ruined himself arid daughter for life and accomplished no good whatever. Of course, he will be acquitted i under the "unwritten law," but only after the publy hearing of some testimony that will be cruelly humiliating to Garrison and his family. Free Lance. L*' York County's Candidates.

To the farmer, this is the happiest time in the whole year. He has forsaken the long face that has for so many days disfigured his appearance and caused his neighbors at times to wish they were not quite so near. Quite a dilferent expression adorns his being now, however. The prospects for the best crop he has ever known; the unusually large crop of fruit and watermelons; the pleasant atmosphere which surrounds each of the numerous picnics; the fact that he is going to bear a prominent part in the approaching election, how could he be of other than a gay spirit? The series of meetings that have been in progress during the past week closed Tnesday, after a week of spendid preaching and great results. The protracted meeting began at Flint Hill Sunday and will continue through the week. The Brown's Shop picnic was not a "dry" one by any means, the speaking commenced in the morning, and was expected to continue in the afternoon, but the rain washed away all their hopes. The Gold Hill band furnished music for the occasion. Miss Corrine Faris and sister, Mrs. J. G. Edwards and daughter ?.i?.. : ? Hbbiv. luaij, ItrJ-C eVUIlIIlg for Braidentown, Fla. Miss Faris will engage in teaching in the graded schools at that place. Mrs. T. M. Faris is visiting at the home of her son, Mr. B. M. Faris. Quite a number of Gold Hill people attented the annual Tirzah picnic Saturday. Readers Should Be Warned. Readers of the Sunday papers, and especially women and children, should be warned not to reply to advertisements offering "free" and "gift" articles. So soon as a reply is received the advertiser sends a box of trashy trinkets to be sold and the money remitted and promises that the "free" and "gift" articles shall be forwarded. As you do not care to turn peddler without a license and as no stamps are inclosed for the return of the goods, the box is put aside to be called for. Nobody calls for it, and the matter is soon forgotten. But at the end of the year a mail order collection agaency writes you a threatening letter, accusing you of "intent to defraud" and demanding payment for the forgotten goods under the extreme penalties of the law. Most of the threatened persons send the money, because the the amount is comparatively small and because they do not Care to he invnlvnrl in nvnonfi,,/. - ^ v ... ? v* V WVA 111 VA^IlOl VC legal proceedings. The proper course when caught in this trap is to transmit the documents to the postmaster general. But the fraudulent game must be very profitable, for large factories in New England are supported bv it, and it advertises largely and maintains several so-called magazines to circulate its misleading "free" and "gift" offers through the clogged mails.?Ex. Mr. Culp's Narrow Escape. ? An accident Saturday which came near resulting seriously for Mr. W. M. Gulp was narrowly averted by the timely intervention of Mrs. Gulp and son George, when Mr. Culp's clothing caught fire from an oil stove. The tank on the stove had leaked oil onto some of the stove frame work and caught fire from the lighted wick. In attempting to take the tank off, Mr. Culp spilled oil over over his clothes and in a flash was in flames. His call for help brought Mrs. Culp and George and they pushed him into the the porch where Mrs. Culp quickly extinguished the flame with some wet cloths which she snatched from the water shelf. With the exception of a slight burn'on Mr. Culp's hand, no one was injured. Specials at Kimbrell's. See adv. Candidate Wilton's Plan For Building Good Roads. Mr. Wilson, Is discussing the road law. spoke as follows: "I am pleaded to see that the people are Just now more Interested In obtaining gbjjd roads Mian In any other question, recognizing the fact that the development and prosperity cf the country and Increase In land values are involved In the question. We all know that under the present law permanent good rouds can not be obtained. The demand, therefore. 1 < for a change In the law. A new law Is wanted that will give permanent good roads, und that, to(9< without unnecessary delay. But tiny ro^id yyst.em that will bring, about these results must cost money, and If results are not to be delayed It will cost big money?not big, however. In comparison with the results to be obtained. Upon the most reliable Information obtainable, permanent good roads can not be built at a cost of loss than from $1,200 to $2.tUX) per mile. It ' Is estimated that there are In York | county about 1,000 miles of public roads, but I take It that the permanent Im- ' provement of any 250 or 3<i0 miles of | the principal highways, so laid out as to extend equitably through every ' township, would satisfy the present de- | mat?d,s qf the people of this county. To do this In a proper way will cost say ' $400,000. I tuke It that the people are | willing to pay an annual property tax of two mills to bring about such a re- ' suit, and under the plan which I wish | to suggest It can lie accomplished under an annual levy of 2 mills. "Let the county of York Issue bonds | in the sum of $400,000 or more, bearing interest at 4 per cent., payable In 40 years from date, with the privilege | reserved to the county of retiring them at any time after, say 10 years. Let these $400,000 worth of bonds then be I distributed among the different town- , ships in proportion to the assessed valuation of property jp the several town- I ships?the proceeds of the bonds so apportioned to suid townships to be ex1 pended in that township, under the di- I recth-n of a board composed of a town- , ship commissioner, selected by such township, and the county board of comi missions and the county road engineer. , The moneys to le deposited In the hands of the county treasurer, as the I agent of the several townships and to i he distributed by him upon the warrants issued by the township commissioner, countersigned and approved by the county board of commissioners. "lty this plan these permanent roads I can be obtained now, and be enjoyed | by the present as well as by future generations, and under this plan they 1 would be paid for In part t?y the future as well as by the present generation. The roads built being pcrma- ' nent, it Is nothing more than right that the future generations should be required to contribute towards their es| tablisliment and maintenance. j "Under the provisions of the Sayc law I by which n county engineer has already I been employed to do the necessary cn- i J glneering work, the greater part of the surveys of the principal roads in the j county will be finished by July 1, 19')D. i so the preliminary engineering work for this plan is already provided for. [ and this permanent work could be I I commenced in euoh township as soon as I the $400,000 worth of bonds shall be j issued, for it Is not likely that there | w ill be any difficulty In promptly dis- , posing of 4 per cent, county bonds at par or above. All permanent work | should be done by contract, which con- , tracts should be let by the township commissioner, county commissioners | and county engineer acting together as , a board. ' "But under the provisions of the constitution of this State, such bonds can : not "be issued until the question of j their issue has been submitted to the , vote of the people of York county, upon a petition for such an election signed by a majority of the freeholders of York county, and unless it is further approved by a majority of the qualified 1 electors voting on the question. You 1 see that it is a plan that is necessary to be approved by a majority of the freeholders as well as by a majority of the electors. There can be no J harm, therefore, in passing an act subi mittlng the question to the people. , "This act would leave the money , | raised from the commutation tax. togethor with the labor furnished by I those liable to road duty, to be applied : towards the keeping up of the other I roads in each township not being perI manently improved. For, under the j proposed plan, where each township | would have Its own road commissioner. I think that those liable to road duty 1 should have the privilege of electing to either pay the commutation tux or else to work the required number of ! j days on the road, as I believe this old | ] plan would work satisfactorily under 1 I Jl tifivnuhln ct'cfo.v. *l* ~ 4 * * t.juku(n, .tnii;c iiiu luwnsmp commissioner con Id give closer at ten- i tion and supervision than could be ] given l?y the county board of commis- < sioncrs. "As to the county clmingang: I am in favor of Its being used exclusively in I the construction of permanent high- . ways in the county under the super- ' > vision and direction of the county board I of commissioners by being hired to the road contractors in that township in I the county making the best offer therefor. 5 "Of course I can not attempt here < to give more than a general outline of < the plan proposed. The details di- i . recting how it shall be carried out, of 1 i course, would have to be carefully and 1 , clearly worked out in the act passed < | by the legislature, and the people of I York county at the election upon the I question of the issuing of the proposed bonds would have the opportunity to . 1 approve or reject the measure as u j whole. * "After 'we have built this 250 or 300 f miles of permanent roads we still have several hundred miles of other public ' ! roads that must he maintained and ' ' | gradually improved. The taxable prop- I ' ' erty in this county for 1907 was 18.292.- 1 * I 076. A levy of 2 mills on this present ' ! valuation will raise some $1G.5S4. a sum ' > more than sufficient to meet the inter- ^ est on the $400,000 worth of bonds Is- 1 sued, besides paying the cost and ex- ( peases incident to the administration I of the fund. And as the assessed value J of property increases the 2 mill levy. k ! besides rnislng the money sufficient to i pay the interest on bonds and cost of administration, will also provide annu- ( : ally a surplus, which can be laid aside | to invest as a sinking fund with which to retire the bonds If deemed advis I able. { "In the meantime, I think the Snye s law. which is a step In the right ill- 1 rection, should he amended and made j < as strong and adaptable to the needs of i c the county as possible and should re- 1 main in force until the people of the 1 ! county wish to avail themselves of the 'J ! privilege of voting the bond issue re- j fcrred to and adopting that system of i | working tlie roads in the shapo of a t new road law." \ , FOR MAGISTRATE.- 1 I hereby announce myself as a candidate for recommendation for reappointment as Magistrate for Fort Mill township, subject, to the choice of the voters I in the Democratic primary, I j r3?00?O'3??? 6 Mills & 1 1 "Patriot" | for mc I "Society" for w< These are "St made in one of tli factories of the lt< Hand Shoe Co., Si tal daily capacity tery of "Star Bran which is the largos operated by any o gj turer in the world | 52,000 ?
