THURSDAY, SEPT. 3, 1914.
Everyone must lament the
great strife now going on in the
* Old World and the disturbance
to commerce that naturally re-:
suits. Of course, that disturbance
affects some of the bellig-;
erent nations more than others,
but all will suffer. Now comes
the opportunity for this country
to push business in South America
and other parts of the world
and to build up our mercantile
marine which, so far as foreign f
trade is concerned, has been a t
neeliirihle ouantitv for a crood
many years.
It has been well said that the
best proof of a man's character
js his manners. To be sure, it
is not an infallible test, for many
a rascal has been distinguished
by his suave and polished manners,
and on the other hand ex- '
treme diffidence or natural awkwardness
sometimes makes a
man of purest character act in a
boorish mood* But almost invariably
it will be found that good j
ma nners and good charaoter go
hand in hand, and the lack of
one usually means the lack of!
the other.
Every lover of Hbmanity must
necessarily hate war. All the
the same, it is to be hoped that
the present European conflict
may last long enough to enable;
t he spirit of democracy to assert
itself that the despotic rule of
'absolute monarchs and bureaucracies
may come to an end and;
the reign of true liberty begin. ,
But for the whims and lust for
power of monarchs and autocracies
there would be no war. for
the rhasses are content to live in .
harmony with the world.
The most conspicuous personage
just now is Dame Rumor.
She has more to say than anyone
else about the war. and he is
' foolish who pays much attention
to what she says. Her statements
are misleading because
ihey are of the imagination and
too often tinctured with prejudice.
The only thing to do is to
ix>ssess one's soul in patience and
wait until the censorship is lifted
and the real facts come to hand. !
And now it is said that the
unpleasantness in Europe prevents
this country from getting
new fashions in clothes. That
may piove a blessing. It certainly
will if it leads Americans
to design the fashions in women's
dress and men's clothing providing.
of course, the home-made
creations should be modest and
sensible.
With nearly all Europe engaged
in the greatest war of
the ages what becomes of the
old argument that to be prepared
for war is the best gUaranI
tee of peace? As a matter of
tact a nation with a big armament
and a little boy with a
sharp knife are much alike.
The consequences are sure to be
disastrous in each case. /
At the rate the war corresIHMidents
of the the metropolis
press are killing off the coiqbatants
in the European war the
war must soon come to an end
for lack of men to bear arms.

Somebody has condensed all j
the mistakes of life and reached |
the conclusion that they are
fourteen in number. When a
man has made some blunder
wherdby all his hopes and plans
come to najight he is ^inclined to
think that he has committed all
fourteen mistakes at once.
The enlisted men in the United
States navy will feel more than
ever that they are men and not
mere machines, as the result of
Secretary Daniel's new rules
which give them better treatment
and more consideration.
Nearly everybody believes in
reform of some kind or other
but the work of securing reform
is usually left to the comparatively
few who get more criticism
than praise unless the reform
becomes popular.
The man who loiters on the
street corner settling the European
muddle might, not unlikely,
do better settling his own
affairs.
"Let the Heathen Rage."
Immediately after the result
of the primary election became
known, the News and Courier
received the following dispatch
brom Senator Tillman, giving
passages between himself and
Governor Blease:
Tillman to Blease; Sept. 1910:
"The Hon. Cole L. Blease,
Newberry, S. C.: Congratulations.
Let the heathen rage."
Blease to Tillman, Aug. 1912:
"B. R. Tillman. Trenton. S. j
C.: Let the heathen rape. They '
still rage."
Tillman to Blease, Aug. 1914:
"Hon. Cole L. Blease. Columbia,
S. C.: The heathen still
rage, but the people rejoice. See
Deuteronomy, 32:15. Good-bye."

To tho Votor* of York County:
I desire to express my thanks to the
many who have piven me the support
of their suffrage in the Democratic primary
in which, of twelve candidates for
the Legislature, I ran second, lacking
only 45 votes of election on the first
ballot. Further, I wish again to invite
the support of the voters, promising
that, if elected, I will give them honest
and faithful service to the best of my
ability.
1 have based my campaign on no
man's weakness and on no man's mistakes;
I have spoken unkindly of no
other candidate for the office, nor do I
intend to; 1 have sought the office of
representative from York County in
what seemed to me a manl^ way, offering
myself as one willing to give my
best service and properly to esteem the
honor of standing for the citizenship of
York.
Fort Mill?my home town ?has seen
fit to indorse my candidacy by- giving
me nearly 90 per cent, of its total vote.
Fort Mill always has stood back and,
almost isolated as it is from the rest of
the county, has willingly supported for
county offices men from other sections
of the county. Returning this courtesy,
the rest of the county usually has accorded
support to one Fort Mill candidate
for the Legislature.
urun.. * 1- a.*
h nut- i muKi* tniH suggestion in appealing
for your support, I wish it understood
that, if elected, as I expect to
be, my voice ancf vote in the House of
Representatives will not l>e raised for
one section against another?1 pledge
myself to regard all parts of York
County as equallv deserving of the best
that can be obtained, and to cast every
vote and make every speech for the
good of the people, whose servants all
public officials must be.
The time between the two primaries
is short, and a personal canvass is impossible.
Let these, my expressed
pledges and pleas, take the place of
face to face conversation; let them
have the effect of my very strongest
personal assurances.
1 appeal to my friends not to assume
that I will be nominated in the second
primary anywav, but to be sure to go
to the polls and support me on election
day, September 8.
For your past support 1 thank you;
I ask for your support in the second
primary on the grounds set cut.
Yours very truly.
W. R. BRADFORD.

TAKE DODSON'S AND
STAY ON YOUR FEET
Taking calomel means staying
home for the day?take Dodson's
Liver Tone and save a day's
work. If an attack of constipation
or biliousness hits you,
there's no need to take a dose
of calomel and spend at least a
day getting over the effects of
it. Ardrey's Drug store sells
Dodson's Liver Tone, which they
guarantee takes the place of
calomel and starts a lazy liver
without bad after-effects.
Dodson's Liver Tone does all
the good that calomel can do, yet
it is absolutely harmless to young
people and old. It is a pleasant
tasting vegetable liquid that will
relieve constipation or sour stomach
or other troubles that go
along with a lazy liver, without
restriction of habit or diet. You

Liver Tone.
A large bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone sells for 50 cents.
Get the genuine and if you are
not pleased with it the druggist
from whom you bought it will
give your money back with a
smile. *
