THURSDAY. OCT. 15. 1914.
Fort Mill and the community'
.cannot prosper by money that is !'
sent away, but by the money
that is spent here at home. The,
beRt possible way, in fact the ,
only practicable way, to make | ]
this community more prosperous ,
is to make it more populous; we
-must have more people right
here to consume what we produce
and sell. So far as the .
wealth and prosperity of this ,
community are concerned, they ,
will be promoted as directly by ,
the purchase and consumption of t
What is sold as by the consump- |
tion of what is produced here. |
.? 1_ ,l: i. u_ !
in oiner worus, imngs must ue \
bought here and the money pro- 1
duced in the community must be <
spent and used here if the town i
and community are to prosper J
as they should.
Somewhere back east a judge :
has sentenced a young man who '
drinks helHrily to get married J
within a month. That judge |
must "be a survival from the
Dark Ages. What of the woman
that might be cajoled into marrying
such a sot? No man is fit ,
for judge or any other position
who gives such a sentence. His
views of home "and marriage, to
say nothing of the rights and
happiness of women, are an
insult to the intell gcnce and
civilization of this twentieth
century. |
The tramp nuisance might be
abated considerably if folks we^e
not so soft-hearted as to be imposed
upon by every pitiful tale
that "Weary Willie" pours out
with such glibness of speech.

# a little work is the best test to
apply and it usually results in
the tramp moving on, for the!'
average tramp hates work as;
much as he hates water.
If the present session of the
State Legislature is to accomplish
nothing more than to
force the farmers to curtail
acreage next year, then there
was little use for the extra
? ession. The regular session
i.txt January could have done
this much without any ad-'
[ ' ditionai cost to the taxpayers.
The way to defeat the mail
order house is to meet it on its
own ground. Advertise profusely
and attractively, not by
big catalogues, but in and
through the local paper. Such
advertisements backed up by the
goods are effective against the
big department stores. ^
The evil of one thing some- 1
times obliterates some other evil? 1

The sudden Outbreak of war on j
the European continent has lecf ^
to the disuppearanee of Huerta's c
picture and ever, to mention of i
his name. For that let us be s
exceptionally thankful. (

Many who believed two weeks I
ago that Germany was facing c
early defeat are now of a A
different opinion. The Kaiser's '
forces seem to have had things
coming their way for the last
ten days. c

Aull Will be Editor.
It is understood that John K.
Aull, Gov. Blease's private sec
retary, will be editor of th?
Commonwealth, the new papei
which has been capitalized al
$25,000. The first issue will b?
published just before or soor
after the legislature convenes
in January. The paper will be
owned by a stock company, the
shares to be only $5 each. It
was learned that stock is beinp
taken in all parts of the State.
The plan is to permit no stockholder
to own more than fifty
shares.?Greenwood Journal.
Sees Doom for New Paper.
A company is being incorporated
in Columbia for the purpose
of publishing a semi-weekly
newspaper which will be the
prgan of the Governor and his
political associates'. It is said
the paper will be known as the
Commonwealth. The paper is
foredoomed to failure. It will
last while the money holds out.
>r as long as politicians are wiling
to put up the cash to keep it
?oing. A political organ of this
character has no semblance of
irciug a uusmesrs proposition,
ind no newspaper can exist very
long unless it is a business enterprise
and conducted in accordance
with good business principles.?Rock
Hill Herald.
Proclamation is Legible to All.
Postmasters oyer the country
are receiving a circular from
Postmaster General Burleson
printed in five languages, with
the legend, "You are directed tc
place this placard in the lobby of
vour postofiice."
In five\ columns representing
live staple American languages
it sets forth the statement of
President Wilson defining American
neutrality during the existence
of conditions of the present,
[n the following lingual order
the proclamation is posted: Engish,
German, Italian, Polish and
French.
Mill Fair a Big Success.
The second annual meeting of
the Arcade-Victoria fair, held
Saturday at the Arcade village.
.vas an unqualified success, about
i.000 people being present durng
the day. which wa^ a highly
jnjoyable one in etferv respect,
says the Rock Hill Record. The
people were happy, the exhibits
vere fine, the speeches were

arried things to ultimate suc ess.
The success of the occasion is

Nail Delivery bv Contract
In order to reduce the cost of
laving mail distributed through
lie rural uistncis the goveifluent
may let out the work of
arrying rural mail on contract.
Postmaster (General Burleson is
n favor of this plan instead of
liring rural carriers. The re:ent
increase in the pay of
ural carriers has resulted in
idditional expense, and it was
nade against the protest of the
jostoftice department. The poitical
influence of the rural
arriers may interfere, it is said,
vith the consummation of Postnaster
General Burleson's plan,
t is estimated that the governnent
could save $20,000,000 a
rear by letting the rural service
>ut by contract.

: 1 Developing the Air Service.^
* j Sensational use of air craft in
11 the great European war has
i i added to steps ordered by the
. war deprrtment to at once carry
, out the provisions of the act of
, last July to increase the effiI
ciency of the aviation service of
the army. A general order invites
unmarried lieutenants of
the line of the'army under 30
years of age to apply for details
1: in this extrahazardous service,
- which will entitle them to a
- 50 per cent, increase in salary.
Other orders looking to the immediate
enlargement of the
aviation corps and the a^quirei
ment of additional aeroplanes
. i are expected.
