There are no hard and fast rules by which newspaper writers must be governed in criticising public officials, but there is a line of demarcation beyond which the press cannot go unless it would establish itself as a mere jowerer, asquirterof words behind which there is little more than a system / saturated with bile. One of The Times' exchanges has an acute case of jowering?so pronounced indeed is its malady that we are seldom disappointed upon turning to its editorial page to find a more or less lengthy diatribe against the governor of South Carolina. No one, we are sure, will set up the claim that Governor Blease's official acts are beyond criticism; he has made mistakes, quite a number of them, and this paper is not an apologist for him. Nevertheless we do not purpose to withhold the observation that he is criticised too often % and too indiscriminately in certajn quarters. Seemingly he can perform none of the duties of his office without bringing upon himself the maledictions of a newspaper which is old enough to know better and to conduct itself with more decency, even if it is published in North Carolina. But it seems to be a mission, almost the mission, of our Tarheel contemporary to "roast" Governor Blease on the least provocation, ^ sometimes without provocation. To it he is ever and anon "Coal Blaze," a choice designation which is undoubtedly patentable, but patentable for its originator and1 not for the paper which so often plagiarizes it. Just why a North Carolina newspaper should manifest such a consuming interest in a sister State's executive one is at a lo^s to understand. It wouldi^m that there io ostma imivirfa/it lr?r>nl business IO OVIIIb luipuk wi-iv to which our contemporary might profitably apply itself. There is a senatorial campaign pending across the line. The people up there need to be informed of the kind of Democracy Senator Simmons sups with by day and sleeps with by night. A little less jowering at the governor of South Carolina would help some. Buy a Home. H. H. Rogers, a Standard Oil millionaire, advised his employees to save their money and buy a home. He oft^p said to them: "Neither opportunity nor fortune can knock at the door of a man who has no home." In many portions of the country, in fact, in most portions of the country now, it is difficult for the poor man or the beginner in life to buy a home, and many farm tenants are doing well but there is no certainty of where they will be next year, nor can they make any permanent plans, or krfow where their family is to grow up. We, therefore, join ""Mr. Rogers in the advice to buy a home. It may be too small to make a living upon, or to derive sufficient income from to support a family, but it will be a place all your own, and the outside world will be as widely open to you after you have bought it as it was before. You may not be able to reach out as far, or to change places so often, but the latter, at least, will be an advantage to you and your family?it will be a place from which you cannot be driven, JEven if you have to go in debt, < buy a home. Pay all you can, and secure the deferred payments on the most favorable terms possible, and then direct your energies to paying them. Our standing advice to beginners in life is 4 ^ ^ ^ Ullf if of oil vo i\ee^> ujii ui ucui, uui 11 in on favorable terms are made it is safe to go in debt for a home. Real estate can scarcely deprei ciate in value, and the demand i for homes will forever exceed the supply. So it is hard to cramp or impoverish a home owner. If you must rent land to cultivate, it is much easier to live at home and rent nearby land than it is to rent both home and land.?Ex.

THE IMMORTAL SIX HUNDRED. Macon (Ga.) Telegraph. ( At all the annual reunions of < United Confederate Veterans, I the populace who view it, will see 1 a small band of grizzled, and < gray veterans, marching proudly 1 behind a banner, thus inscribed: < "Survivors of the Immortal Six ' Hundred Confederate Officers, < Prisoners of War. Forty-two days under fire of our own guns, 1 on Morris Island, Charleston Harbor, S. C., 65 days, on Rotten Corn Meal, Cats, and Pickle i Rations, at Hilton Head, and Fort Pulaski, 18 days, in the Hold of the Prison Ship, Crescent City, i from Fort Delaware to Morris Island." This banner and these men, unfold a tale of horror, such as bring a shudder and a blush of fnVioolrc nf pvprv MlcUIIC, IV VHV W.?J, man, woman, or child, in the confines of the Union. In all the annals of ancient or modern history, no band of human beings, helpless, bound prisoners of war, were ever called upon to suffer or endure. As one of those survivors, even at this distant day, I shudder to review them. Space does not permit me to give details; so 1 shall confine myself to cold, statistical facts. On August the 20th., 1864, six hundred Confederate officers were selected from among the prisoners confined in the Barracks and prison cells of Fort Delaware, and marched on board a small coasting steamer, that plied between Philadelphia and New Orleans. Into the hold of this vessel they were marched, and like dry goods, packed in shelves, next to the boilers, coal bunks and furnaces, below the water line. A narrow gangway, thirty inches; wide, led from the rear of these bunks, to an iron ladder; un this ladder, forty-five feet above their heads, was a closet, and one sink hole, for the use of the entire Six Hundred. Along this ladder was posted six Federal guards, whose orders were to let but one pris^ oner ascend and descend at a time. The rations furnished were a pint of hot, salty, greasy, pea soup, and four mouldy, sour, worm eaten ship biscuit, twice a day. The water turnisnea was from a small evaporator, whose capacity was only sufficient for the officers and crew, thirty in number. The consequence was that with 600 prisoners, the thir-: ty officers and crew of the vessel, and the 200 Yankee guards, that this evaporator could not distill a sufficiency of water. So the water given the prisoners was so hot, that, in the temperature of ( the hold, was always 120 degrees, Farenheit, that we would have to i blow and cool it for an hour at a ! time, before we could swallow ! it. And when it was cooled, it / 1 had a slimy, and very brackish taste. Under these conditions, the calls of nature had to be i obeyed, and the narrow gangway, of 30 inches, was soon j aslosh, with the emissions from j the tortured men. Each day, as 1 the ship steamed on her way, southward, toward Morris Island. | the weather grew warmer, and the sea rougher, arm me sunerings in that dark, dismal, heated ! hold, and the *ceril from the! bilge \vaWr;"" and the ever increasing odors of human emissions, was almost unbearable. When we reached Charleston harbor, and were removed to the | upper decks, out of the mephitic odors of the dark hold, our complexions were as fair as lillies of the valley, and just as devoid of the rose tinge. From otf Hilton Head we were carried to a sand bar on Morris Island, in front of Charleston, and directly under the guns of Fort Sumter, Fort Moultrie, and all the Confederate batteries guarding that city. Behind us frowned the yankee guns, in Batteries Wagoner, Chatfield and Gregg. Around us a walled stockade, about one hundred yards square, manned by negro guards, under a monster named Hallowed. Here our guards made pretense of erecting stronger works and nearer approaches toward our defenses, which caused all the guns in Charleston harbor, and for forty-two days, they poured their iron hail upon us, day and night. Every day the oath of allegiance was offered to us, as a means of escape, from this awful fire. And when none were induced to take it; the Yankee batteries would open a terrific tire in reply to our own guns, and every now and then, burst one of their own shells in our midst. From this awful "Hell of Fire" on Morris Island, we were removed to Hilton Head and Fort Pulaski, and there for for sixtyfive days we were fed on rotten corn meal. Corn meal that was kiln dried in I860, and here issued to us. in the winter of 18641865, with half a pint of extra sour, slimy pickle. Of course we ate every rat. or cat, and an occasional dog that came in our reach. Under these conditions as I have before remarked, this band of six hundred immortals bore their sufferings and were carried back to the Northern prisons, and the survivors paroled in June and July, 1865. Prior to this, only 18 of these ; men, under all their hardships, took the oath of allegiance, and escaped further suffering. And the survivors of that immortal band of six hundred Confederate officers believe today, that you could have selected from the ranks of any Confederate army, any six hundred men, and they would have made the same proud record that we did, whom fate put to the test.

The aicnic dinners that are always ane of the pleasing features of :he institutes will, of course, be an the program. The first of the institutes, to be ofiven as heretofore by the extension division of Clemson college, will be held at Gold Hill academy on next Tuesday, July 25. All who are interested in improved agriculture are invited to be present. Besides the addresses by the Clemson professors it is expected that a professor from YVinthrop will be present to address the ladies of I the Gold Hill School Improvement association upon the subject of school betterment. These ladies will serve refreshments to, the crowd and the proceeds will be used in improving the Gold Hill school. On Wednesday the Clemson professors will go over to Pleasant Valley, where they will again address the people of that section upon subjects of interest to the farmers. Commissioner Watson has been invited to attend the institute and it is the hope of Pleasant Valley folk that he will be present. The farmers' institutes begin at 10:30 a. m. A Call to the "Red Shirts." Editor Times: I notice that a call has been made for a reunion of the "Red Shirts" of 1876?35 years ago?who redeemed our beloved State from the rule of the negro, white scalawag and alien, after the most heated and exciting campaign known in the history of the State. Capt. B. H. Massey, Col. Jno. M. White, Capt. N. G. Bradford and many other of our gallant leaders of that memorable campaign have "crossed over the river," but we still have with us our intrepid leader, Capt. J. Wilson Marshall, captain of Marshall's Red Shirt Cavalry, which did such valiant service in that campaign. Why not "rally around the flag boys" once again under the leadership j of this irallant old soldier? To J my mind nothing could be more L inspiring than to see a thousand Red Shirts from York county at " the reunion in our fair Capitol City under the command of Capt. Marshall and the gallant Major ;i T. C. Beckham, both citizens oi j our county's metropolis. As one j of the Red Shirt survivors, 18 years old at that time, I would , suggest that we get up a party -j of the "old guard" and attend s the reunion. Railroad fare will j, probably be less than $2 for the n round trip, and 20 cents will . cover the cost a red calico shirt, i t Persons wishing to attend will! please notify the undersigned at n once.

C., which H has heretofore been unknown to J medical science and is baffling skilled physicians who have made u every etfort to check the malady which manifests by small blood- l, shot stains on the tips of the ) fingers, passing through the arm '' into the body and resulting in I death within a few days after the first sign appears. The plague ^ has claimed a number of victims in Mitchell county. There are no naroxvsms ac- ? companying the attack, the dis- 1 ease appears to move rapidly ,v from the linger tips, along the arm into the body and reaches the heart within a day or two, resulting invariably in immediate and apparently painless death. No permanent relief has thus t far been discovered, and it is re- v ported that the rapidity with ^ which the malady is spreading n has become alarming. | v , v Nr. Swearingen for Senator. v The possibility of a second e "blind senator" in Congress is *s suggested by R. M. McCown, of ,, Florence, S. C.. secretary of j State tor South Carolina, at the .Metropolitan hotel, says the a Washington Post. "If Senator Benjamin Ryan , Tillman does not want another ' term in the Senate when his a present one expires, in 1913," Mr McCown said. "It is prac tically certain that his nephew. / J. E. Swearinpen. can have the 1 tops. Air. Swearingen is now . State superintendent of education . for South Carolina, and he has 1 accomplished wonders in his \ work for education. "Air. Swearinpen is blind, but 1 his affliction has not impaired his abilities, and from early manhood he has been a figure in public matters. If he allows his t name to be placed for election \ to the Senate, he will be elected. '1 whether by direct vote of the ? people or by legislative selection, t "Air. Swearinpen is a forceful 1 and powerful man. His person- rJ ality is pleasing and if he follows a his uncle in offlce he will be heard from on big things." G f Esctped With His Life. "Twenty-one years ago I faced an awful death " writes H. B. Martin, Port Harrebon, S. C. "Doctors said I had consumption and the dreadful cough u I had looked like it, sure enough: I b tried everything I could hear of for my s; cough, and was under the treatment of a the best doctor in Georgetown, S. C., p for a year, but could get no relief. A ti friend advised to try Dr. King's New 1} Discovery. 1 did so. and was complete- T lv cured. 1 feel that I owe my life to n this great throat and lung cure." It's p positively guaranteed for coughs, colds ti and all bronchial affections. oUc and $1. h Trial bottle free at Arurev's Drug y store, Parks Drug Co. and Fort Mill 5 Drug Co. jC - .itV .

I The Fort Mill Times has been ( n ardent supporter of Governor ( 'lease and Congressman Finlev, / iut it appears that our contem-B lorary's admiration for the latter 3 much greater than the former. I die Times has on various occa- ( ions commended the governor ( nd has been one of that small { lumber of papers which sup-J. torted him. However, it seems ' hat the speech of the governor j( t Cowpens recently when he ( iiade the assertion that Con- ( ressman Johnston had more j ense than ail the other South i!

It pains us to see uch friends as The Times, Finey and Blease at outs and we vould advise the gov* rnor to lold his tongue. Chester Lan- 1 ern, Friday. j Why Swat the Fly?

As yet he has done no i overt act, spoken no public word, nor made any declaration of his 1 intentions, but out of the Demo- e cratic soil about him, and from the conditions of service and leadership and of equipment encircling him, has developed the strong, virile and probable triumphant candidacy of the Missourian for the Presidency. There are many reasons which make the candidacy of the Speaker the most natural and logical policy >f the Democratic party. The candidacies of other men have risen and fallen. Some of them have been engineered by individuals and some sponsored by s the interests. Some have been pressed too eagerly and some t have wilted by reason of insuf' " * K f r\A boon IICit'll I I UUL.
