History as She's Writ.
When a man sets himself up !
as a historian, either on his own
initiative or at the suggestion of
some one who deems him fitted
to do the work in hand, one of
the first things he should make
up his mind to is to get his facts
straight. Having stated the
facts, he may draw interested or
disinterested conclusions therefrom
and*the one to whom he
is speaking, by word of mouth
or in print, will be able to take
for what it is worth his conclusions.
This being true, it is
a matter for wonder that the
"historian," alleged or real,
should find it advisable to set up
it li?11111 a? it ihci wucii tut: iwtiiu i
is not the fact.
So much by way of introduction
to a word or two rela-1
tive to one phase of the recent
dedicatory exercises of the new
court house in Yorkville. There
were people in the audience on
that occasion, as there will be
others in the future, who heard ,
the statement and accepted it as
true that the movement for the
new building had its inception
\sith the county grand jury
meeting in the fall of 1911. The
fac^ is otherwise. The grand
jury of 1911 was not the first to
s lggest what seemed to he the
necessity for a new county court
house?it simply reechoed a suggestion
made editorially in the
Port Mill Times in the spring of
1910. An impartial history of
the new court house would contain
the statement that the
movement for the building was
begun by this paper, as was
pointed out by Mr. .1. S. Uriee,
chairman of the court house
1
commission, in making public
the financial statement of the
luiiiiiiiasiun.
11* sonic criminals or .su.-pecled
people are like their pictures in
the papers, there can be no
doubt of their guill. But it isn't
always safe to judge a man by
what purports to be his portrait.
A smile and a kind word costs'
nothing, but the man or woman:
who has the habit of radiating
smiles and saying pleasant tilings
exerts a gracious influence, the
value of which cannot be estimated
in dollars and cents.
The Aldrtch Mfg. company, of
Buffalo, N. Y., is to be commended
for its refusal to furnish
$5,000 worth of cartridges to
to the allied nations. The president
of the company said, in refusing
the order, that he did not
care to help prolong the war.
mi . ? ? -
mere is a inoe in AincSi, 11
is said, that allows a man to
speak in public just so long as he
can stur.d on one foot. What a
time some of our long-winded
statesmen would have trying to
perform that feat! Congress
might do worse than pass such
a law.
No one knows anything about
, the character of the inhabitants
of Mars, always supposing the j
planet is inhabited, but considering
what has been going on thej
?
past year in this old world of
ours it might be well for the
earth and Mars to swap names.
It is all wrong to suppose that
the financial statemenof a church
is of interest only to the members
of the church. To a rank
outsider such report sometimes
brings the information that the
smallest amounts paid for the
support of the church come
from the more wealthy members
and that others who are able to
rnntrihiifp lihprnllv nnv littlo
nothing.
The United States government
is, it seems, about to awake at
last to the fact that England's
policy toward the commerce of
this country is more hurtful
than Germany's sinking a Indigent
vessel carrying a handful of
fool-hardy Americans. Our Uncle
Sam should notify Mr. J. Bull
that it is time to apply the brakes
in this matter.
The writer of this squib has
owned nothing in the way of live
stock larger than a setter dog,
and if he ever owns a horse,
mule, or even a donkey, that
will permit a young lady to ride
astride its back through the
town's streets, it will be sl.ot
immediately or sent off to Europe
for cannon food. Such animal
has absolutely no respect
for itself or the public morals.
We do not profess to have the
wisdom of a Solomon but neither
are we so thick-headed that we
can't put two and two together
and make four. What puzzles
us is that we are lashing ourselves
into a fury because Germany
doesn't come to us with
hat in hand and say, "Please.
Mister, 1 won't do it any more."
when as a matter of fact England
has been romping all over our
rights ever since the war began,
and nobody, until recently, has
raised a word of protest. ? Dillon

Chance for the President.
The followinir commiiniention
has been sent The State by J. C.
Hunter, of Liberty, a former resident
of Fort Mill:
"Have just read the letter of
'J. T. K.' and your reply to it.
You say that we have neither a
sufficiently large army nor navy
to make any nation observe our
rights as a neutral party on the
high seas.
"We could give the allies to
understand that if any of our
ships were seized and confiscated
that we would immediately declare
an embargo on all exports
of whatever nature and use our
influences on South America to
lo the same, and further to coniscatc
all their possessions in the
United States. Then we would
lave our rights respected beoanse
the Allies do not want the
United State against them, neitl er
dobs Germany.
"It President Wilson would'dispatch
such a note to the Allies,
ai\d give them two weeks to answer,
then we would get something
for our cotton this fall and
it would be in time to help tl e
farmer and not the speculator
Now is the time lor President
Wilson to help the South. Cotton
is our chief export. We can not
stand a repetition of last fall.
".by placing an embargo on all
exports the war then would soon
come to a close. 'Twould be a
survival of the fittest. England
is now seeing the beginning of
her downfall as mistress of the
seas. President Wilson should
act now that the issue between
Germany and the United States
i* about settled."

The ice cream supper given at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Carl
Paris Saturday evening was
quite a success, despite the fact
that some difficulty was experienced
in securing freezers.
We don't believe that any of
our boys are members of the
corn clubs, but if they were, it
is probable that someone would
wear thfe laurels of champion
corn grower next fall. Never
before have we seen such bright
prospects for an enormous yield
on some of the "pet" patches in
this community.

Buys York County Oats.
X Charlotto firm last Saturday
bought five carloads of York
county oats at Rock Hill, according
to VV. W. Long, State agent
for the farm demonstration
work, who was in Columbia
yesterday. The price was 55
cents per bushel in bulk. The
same firm, he said, offered from
58 to 61 cents for the oats sacked,
the sacks to be returned.
"The farmerc of the State
can set in touch with this firm
by communicating with the
People's Bank of Rock Hill,"
said Mr. Long. ? The State, Tuesday.
