No. 112. THURSDAY. JULY 23. 1914. Come to Fort Mill Wednesday, Augnst 5, and enjoy yourself. If you do not get your name on the Democratic club roll by next Tuesday, you can't vote in August primary. It pays to read the advertisements of enterprising home merchants. They are the people who make it possible to have conveniences right at your door, so to speak. Some people never hand in an item of news for publication, but ? if we happen to miss an item in which they are interested they are sure to nann us a nortn poie stare that would freeze the liver of a polar bear. It is mighty mean to patronize a merchant who will trust you until you get so far in debt to him that you are ashamed to see him, and then go and spend your cash somewhere else where you could not get credit: but there are people who do it. If a town does not reach after the trade, it will come only as fast as it has to, and it will grow as it is forced to. But if the merchants go after business in the surrounding country, advertising in every possible way, and making good every word of their advertising, trade will come from an ever-increasing radius, the town will gain a reputation for being awake and it will forge to the front.

The senatorial campaign meeting at Greenville Saturday, the most largely attended up to that time, was marred by a colloquy between Governor Blease and Jos. W. Norwood, president of the Norwood National Bank. Mr. Norwood asked the Governor about the Mcintosh and the Governor in his reply referred to Norwood as a coward. The latter replied by calling' the Governor a liar and applying still viler epithets while all the time fighting and scrambling to get at Klense. He was held back, however, but nl'le?v*.rd mounted the stand and delivered an address to these who remained in which he applied other epithets to the Governor and referred also to ,lohn G.

Quick Explain the Incident and What Led to It. (Political Advertisement.) On the night of July 14. 1914. at Pageland, S. C., the candidates for congress, W. F. Stevenson and D. E. Finley spoke. Mr. Stevenson opened and Mr. Finley closed and Mr. Stevenson exercised the right, assumed by Mr. Finley at Chesterfield, of replying. When he did so Mr. Finley replied to him and as he turned to sit down he said tc Mr. Stevenson, "You can't throw off on me." Mr. Stevenson said, "How." He had not made any personal remarks to Mr. Finley I and only replied to what he said appeared to be an insinuation made by Mr. Finley and had corrected Mr. Finley in reply tc questions addressed to him by Mr. Finley. When Finley replied, "I will just hurt you," Mr StovoneAn cniil "Hurt- ma old man, hurt me?" The chairman had announced the meeting adjourned and as Mr. Stevenson turned to pick up his papers Mr. Finley hit him behind the right ear. After Mr. Stevenson recovered from the lick he approached Mr. Finley and appeared about to engage in the difficulty, but he was pulled off the stand by T. W. Belk, who stated to him that he wanted to prevent any difficulty. The incident was entirely unexpected and without any apparent cause as the debate was being conducted along parlimentary lines and the apparent heal of Mr. Finley was not understood by Mr. Stevenson apparently 01 by the audience. W. F. Stevenson. To the best of my knowledge the above is a correct statement, but I don't know what Mr. Stev enson was doing when Mr. Finley struck him. John YV. Quick. Chairman of Meeting.
