" Whether Mr. Bryan is elected or ^ nat he is one of the noblest and 8 most inspiring figures that ever ? stood in thd forefront of any * country's history. There is no ~ trouble, as some one has truly 8 said, in instaptly fixing hiip as one y, whose njentaJ-moral altitude is Qlin.lfioca/I?fnurarinrr LlnrVi oKaim I '' iv*kjv.'vv* - ?y vT 111511 auvv V/ humanity's timber-line. Armed r with righteousness and truth and s always pn the firing line in the F battle# of ,the dowa-trodc^en and r oppressed, Mr. Bryan is today J the premier statesman of the English-speaking world. God 11 grant tha<t Mr. Bryan be elected * president of the United Slates pext Tuesday. Vote Next Tuesday. ' ? I National Chairman Norman E. v Mack has issued an urgent appeal s every Democrat in the country, regardless of section or State in ^which he lives, to go to the polls and vote the straight party ticket pext Tuesday. ?9 to* as South Carolina is I .concerned, of course there is nothing to fear from the feeble .opposition which the Republicans are .offering to the regular Democratic nominees, and it is not believed that the Taft electors will \receive more than 1,500 votes in ; ^ the entire State, but it is none r ;the less a duty which our people j. #we the Democracy to respond v Cheerfully and enthusiastically to ?he appeal of the national chairjn^n. There are not less than 35,000 Democrats registered in the State and it is hoped that 1 fully 75,000 will go to the polls v and vote. j j Four years ago Judge Parker j 1 received only 53,000 votes in ? South Carolina?a much smaller ? vote than he should have re- r ? jived?the light vote being due g doubtless to the hopelessness of a the fight against the Republicans 0 that year. Now, however, the ; ^ Democracy is thoroughly united 0 in every State of the Union and e is making such a fight against v Republican misrule and corrup- \{ ,tion as it has not made since the ^ great Democratic landslide in g J892. Our people owe it to them- b selves and to the great party to n .which we are pleased to ac- Q knowledge allegiance to go to j. Jhe polls next Tuesday and help r swell the enormous popular vote / which Mr. Bryan is certain to receive. * - v The Battlegrounds. 1 This is the last week of the ? presidential campaign of 1908, gnd both the great political par- o ties are exercising every force at c i.i : i . i .i . a ineir command to corral me votes j r 1q the States which are considered j g doubtful. In the East the battle h is waging fiercest in New York, o New Jersey and Connecticut, * .while in the Middle West the ^ jnain fields of conflict are Ohio, 0 Indiana and Kansas. The Re- a publicans have practically given t up hope of carrying Nebraska, Bryan's home State, as well j " they may, for if reports coming s, from out there are trustworthy c jthere is in motion a great Demo- a cratic landslide in that State which promises to bury the grand e (o!d party of infamy so deep that the Democracy will be in the e ascendency for years. S At this time New York ap- J, pears to be within the pemo- t| cratic fold. Every faction of the it party is united in the Empire h State and working harmoniously and earnestly for both the State ianjJ national tickets, and if Mr. ^ Brvan is fortunate ennntrVi carry Ohio, Kansas and Indiana j; of the doubtful States success tar the Democracy seems assured. ! o j S( If you are a white Democrat, ti go to the polls and vote Tuesday. | is only a privilege, but a E duty. You are under oath to e j upport the nominees of the ; ? party and next Tuesday will be ', your opportunity to comply with ' tout obligation. Bring your this , 0 year's county registration certificate with you; the old one is r< Worthless. o m Republican "Straw Votes." T A writer in The State observes Y hat the "straw votes" taken by he Hepublican press as to the utcome of the presidential elecion next week is intended to mislead and deceive the voters as o the Democratic chances of j. uccess. .There can be no doubt, v aye *J?he State's correspondent, 0 8 to the accuracy of this state- b lent as regards a recent poll * aken in South Carolina by The ^ iiterary Digest in which Taft is q iven 12 per cent, of the vote as fi gainst 5 per cent, of the vote 1: or Roosevelt four years ago. Y Tie Republicans have made no ^ ;ains in South Carolina in recent j, ears, and The Literary Digest's b 'straw vote" is therefore worth- fl ess except in so far as it pro- ^ notes the campaign of misrepre- j, entation and deceit of the Re- ^ mblican party. There probably n lever has been an American g ampaign in which lying and >' lypocricy has been practiced j! nore extensively as a fine art n han has been the case with the b tepubiicans this year. a v The Ticket You Should Vote. li Following is the Democratic P electoral ticket, which every ? vhite man in South Carolina v hould vote next Tuesday: f Thomas B. Butler. R. H. Timmerman. c J. D. Bivens. , ? Charles Carroll Simms. c M. L. Bonham. v T. B. Crews. t S. W. Heath. f R. B. Scarborough. John T.

V HOMAS' RECOVERY PROBABLE. oong Steel Creek Man Who Was j Shot Five Tunes, R is Alleged, by His Brother-in-Law, C. B. Kimbrell, . Shows Signs of Recovery.?Story , of the Tragedy. < '1 Smouldering enmity, born of ftmil V lUsjUTPPPmont nf t'Amo ? 'W.i.V.lV VA WVIHV ( hree years' standing, burst in , ivid flames last night about 7 'clock, when Charles B. Kimall, of lower Steel Creek, under ' he influence of liquor, drew a evolver from his pocket in the partments of the Park Driving Hub on East Trade street, and ve times, most probably mortal- ' y, wounded his brother-in-law, oung Charlie Thomas, of the ame section of the 'county, aged I bout 23. The shots had hardy greeted the ears of those nearly before the boy's assassin had led. He was captured an hour iter on the fair grounds. The thing happened so quicker that hardly any one saw its eginning, a circumstance that rtakes it almost impossible to ;ive any detailed account of the /ords or actions which led up mmediately to the shooting. } bystanders were so startled that, 10 one attempted to stop Kimall as he fled precipitately, but | doctor was soon summoned and : /as in attendance before the ffair reached the ears of the poce on the street below. The hysician did what could be done n the spot and the injured man, n a condition evidently serious, /as removed to the Presbyterian lospital. The Park Driving Club is loated at No. 40 East Trade treet, on the second floor, being j n the right-hand side of th? orrjdor. Mr. Walter Hoover, j /ho is also a brother-in-law of he other two men, had come in rom the fair grounds accomianied by the young man Thomas. | Jnexpectedly he met there Kimall, with whom he had not been n speaking terms since a quarrel uout me aivision ot a family esate some few years ago. It is upposed that the quarrel was enewed. The next thing the pectators knew Thomas was ring on the floor near the southrn wall of the room with three ullet wounds in his back and i houlders. Mr. Kimball married Miss Sale Thomas, a sister of the injured lan. He is about 38 years old nd has a wife and several chilren. He is originally from 'ort Mill township, being reared List over the South Carolina line. 1 le runs a store on the Yorkville oad about twelve miles from lharlotte. Mr. Thomas is the son of Mr. 1 nd Mrs. A. L. Thomas, of lower teele Creek, and lives on the arm with his parents. He is i n married. ' The police have in their poression the pistol from which the 1 hots were fired. It is a five hooter. Four chambers are lank and one is entirely empty, 'he police have also a pair of' nucks said to have been taken j rem the pocket of Thomas. One ystander states that Thomas ad drunk two bottles of beer efore the difficulty occurred.? Iharlotte Observer, Thursday. ( [A short time after the shoot- : ig Kimbrell was arrested at the ( air grounds and carried to jail, ! diere he is still held pending the ; utcome of Thomas' wounds. So i ar lie has declined to make a 1 tatement as to whether or not 1 e was connected with or knows , bout the shooting. Thomas is till in the Presbyterian Hospital, nd despite the fact that the bul;ts made several perforations of le intestines, wounds which almost invariably prove fatal, the 1 itest reports say that he is slowi improving and will likely re3ver. Both Thomas and kimbrell are 1 ^ell known in Fort Mill and the , Dwnship and their friends great-1 r deplore the tragedy of last < 'eek.?Ed. Times.] Two Hotels for Fort Mill.
