FORT MILL. S. C.. JULY 14. 1910.
The Governorship.
In the race for governor there
are a number of men any one of
whom probably would prove acceptable
to the voters of the
State. It is therefore a question
of comparative merit rather than
of absolute fitness or unfitness
for the office. What are the
voters going to do? That is the
question which demands clear,
hard thought if the people are
to reach a satisfactory conclusion.
Where so much depends on
one man, the servant of the people,
the very highest individual
qualifications are needed. The
man who is to represent South
Carolina's citizens in the gubernatorial
chair must be a man
capable of adequately expressing
in hie Qpfinnc on/i hi^ ?r/>?/l<. .
MV. Vivr?iu uitvi 1 HO UUIUO LUC
will of the majority.
Granted personal and official
integrity, sound judgment, im-'
plying as it does constructive.
ability and moral force, is the
first requisite. Indeed it may
be said that this first requisite, I
the greater, includes all others.
It includes, among other things,
the appreciation of the collective
might of an intelligent citizenship,
the will of the majority.
On the liquor problem hinges
much of the result of the campaign.
Try as some of the
candidates will, they can not
keep it out of the campaign. It
must be accepted as an issue in
which every man is interested.
Therefore it becomes one of
paramount importance. A candi- !
date's position on this matter has i
fio bearing on his personal
character. It has, however, a
marked influence on the future ]
course of sumptuary legislation
in South Carolina. The election
of u "local option candidate"
thus will redound to the preservation
in South Carolina of the .
rtrmtrino

self-government.
One candidate has stood out
for this principle first and last. ,
He is Thomas G. McLeod, of
Bishopville. Mr. McLeod, while
not an advocate of liquor selling
or of liquor drinking, strongly
favors county local option. He
stands for sanity in things
governmental, for the best possible
mode of enforcing all
laws?th^ enlistment of a clean
popular sentiment.
Aside from his position on the
liquor question? which should
win him much support from the
sober thought of the voters ?Mr.
McLeod's platform is excellent.
He stands for economy, without
parsimony in government, for
the support of education, both
primary and higher training, and
for the good of the people. In
aaaiuon, nis qualifications are oi
the best. Mr. McLeod, if elected,
will make South Carolina a
splendid governor, responsive
to the popular will yet strong in
his individual convictions.
The Typhoid Fly.
A new and seemingly more appropriate
name has been found
by the entomologists for the
house fly. They have named the
pest "the typhoid fly." This fly
is now abroad in the land and it
behooves the public to have a
care that it does not destroy the
health of the community by depositing
disease germs cn food
which is taken into the system.
The typhoid fly breeds in manure
piles, in waste from the human
system and in other filth. Then
it crawls over vegetables, pastry,
bread, abrasions of the skin, etc.,
and leaves the bacteria which
cause intestinal disorders, typhoid
fever, tuberculosis and
other life-destroying diseases.
Xo chances should be taken with'
the typhoid fly. The remedies
against its encroachments are
screened windows and doors, fly
paper, sticky or poisoned, doing
away with manure heaps, covering
of slops, filth, swill barrels,
and through sterilizing of intestinal
discharges from patients
sufferintr with tvnhoid or other
fevers, or infectious diseases,
before being emptied into sewer
or cesspool or otherwise deposited
where flies can have access
to them.
Mules Killed by Lightning.
A pair of valuable mules be- j
longing to State Senator Yancey
Williams, of Lancaster county, ;
were killed by a bolt of lightning j
on his plpatation in the Waxhaw
neighborhood Friday afternoon.
The animals were hitched to a j
wagon in which three negroes
were riding. The men were
shocked into a state of unconsciousness,
but were revived by
Dr. J. E. Massey, of Riverside,
who happened to be in the
neighborhood.
