A HOMILY ONPOCKET MONEY. \ W?*h?w Enterprise. ^ >! } Elsewhere in this paper the 1 story is told of how Mr. W. H. ^ Windle, a well known farmer | of York, county, just over the ? line in South Carolina, lost the | good sum of $260 the other day i while riding along the public I road in his buggy, and how all < efforts to find it had failed. That 5 is a right nice sum of money for ' anj^ hard-working farmer or al- ( most anybody else to lose in that I urntr A rwl TV-T* U/in/llo 1 iv uj . iiiiu mi. i? niuic in ill have easily avoided even the 1 fiossibility of such a loss by 5 eaving the money on deposit at ' the bank where it had been ' Counted out to him only a few J hours before in payment for cot- j ton he had just soid. If he had debts to pay or bills to meet, his ! i>ersonal check would have been ; ust as good as the cash in at ' east the great majority of cases. We do not know Mr. Windle and are therefore unable to judge as to his intentions in carrying this pood sum of money in his pockets, j Hut we do know that there are not a few men who just cannot j resist the luring temptation to; carry large sums of money about j ' in their pockets, or keep it about ' their homes where it is always 1 in danger of being lost or stolen, t You may happen in our local 1 bank any day when the cotton market is lively and you will see i the cashier counting out sums J from $100 to $300 and maybe much larger to farmers, and they i will cram it down in their jeans I and walk out with a self-satisfied i air that betokens no thought whatever of possible loss a few ] hours later. Of course it is their < money to do just as they please < with, and hence no one cares to < butt in with even a suggestion. 1 But at the same time you can not * help wondering what they are 1 going to do with it or how they i are going to take care of it, when J almost everyone knows that it is 1 1 r uuaaic uj cany iarK? sums Ol ; money around in one's pocket or leave it about the house. The 1 bank is the place to keep money I outside of a little necessary i fjocket change. That is one of the l main purposes for which banks are established and maintained. 1 In the bank your money is safe < from loss and from skulking | i y wmmmmmmmmm | The i?r IWonde don't < | figures. 1 I A migl Iinesss. portun | M EL? r' " ' * - % ? .

They keep t their money in the banks. Every < farmer who handles any considerable amount of money should have a bank account and a check oook in his pocket. Business men generally prefer checks to cash in the settlement of accounts, rhe most progressive farmers in any community all have bank accounts and check books. It is the best way and the wisest way. MARSE HENRY ON THE VICTORY. Writing in the Louisville Courier-Journal a day or two after the ptreat Democratic upheaval of last Tuesday, Col. Henry Watter5on, dean of the American press, has the following to say under the caption of "The People Still Rule:" "For the Democrats it never rains but it pours. This is only mother way of repeating Mr. Tilden's oft-quoted saying that it requires a revolution to unseat the party in power and to bring in the opposition. "Nevertheless, while exhilarating to Democrats, out in the told so long and so used to defeat that they can scarcely realize the actuality and the meaning of victory, the vote of Tuesday should strengthen the faith of all ' thoughtful Americans in the vir- < tue and intelligence of the people i and therefore in the stability of 1 Free institutions under the repre- i tentative form of government. "W e have survived most of the historic dangers which through the ages have assailed systems and dynasties. We seemed to be 1 face to face with a new menace, rhis election secures us against the peril alike of the one-party aligarchy and the one-man power. "Taking a long look backward Enti Its U] rful business r< express it?it v Why? lty strong coml Meet the Wi ity beckons tock 1ANEY ind seeking to shape the future < >y the instruction of our various ; nisleading in the past, the way ihead ought to be tolerably plain. ' We shall not have the majorities ! n the two houses of Congress to 1 :ontrol. We can only in the ower house foreshadow and fornulate legislation. With this ower house of the new Congress, 1 herefore, an extraordinary responsibility will rest. Upon its visdom or folly will depend the election of p Democratic presiient in 1912. "The one great question which las proved a stumbling block to ill parties is the tariff; if we go ;o pieces on any rock we shall go ;o pieces there. But with a firm, dear-sighted man in the speakership, such as we believe Champ 31ark will show himself to be, ind a surefooted, courageous and ;onscientious ways and means lommittee, a measure of revenue reform may be constructed or. which we may go to the country united and confident. "The true Democratic gospel as to the tariff is laid in the basic principle that the government has no right in equity or in law to levy and collect a dollar of taxation except for its own support. This is an exact contradiction of the doctrine that taxes may be levied for the benefit or protection of favored industries j and preferred classes. The Republican party stands for the latter. The Democratic party stands for the former. Thus, the issue between a protective tariff and a revenue tariff is absolute and incisive. But we have had nearly 50 years of a protective tariff. Hundreds of millions of money have been invested and are yet embarked upon the faith of this. Hundreds of thousands of people look to it for their prosperity and support. It cannot be precipitately withdrawn. If we are to change our policy from a protective system to a revenue system, it must be done so gradually and with such regard for the business of the country, which stands greatly in need of rest, as that the final transition shall be as the passing from one season to another, every interest warned beforehand and fully prepared.

"Happily the situation is decisive; the vote of Tuesday was national and pervasive. It shows ' no geographic limitation. It is a i universal protest of the masses i against partisan intolerance, extortion and broken promises. It is a vote of censure upon a most well -intentioned administration and a patriotic president, who were better chief justice than chief magistrate. It is something more than a threat of dismissal of a party oligarchy which has grown reckless of power, its leaders thinking they held the world in a sling; it shows that, j after all, when fairly aroused, the people do rule, that God still i reigns and that the government i of our fathers, of the constitution and the law, the established order of Congress, the court and the executive, yet lives and is to continue to live, at Washington." \ Fiscal Affairs of the County. Yorkville Enquirer. In his round of the county completed last Saturday, Treasurer Neil was able to collect $12,500 of taxes on a total book calling for $181,174.28. The county owes notes to the amount of $10,000 and these have to be paid before a great deal of money will be available to pay accumulated accounts. Afraid To Stay Alone Cherry Vallev.

When 1 would lie down, at night, I had no hope of living until day. I tried Cardui, and now I feel better than I have for 5 years. I cannot praise Cardui enough for what it did for me."
