Jj The q uarrels o other papers are a matter of little interest in f this office, but it is perhaps not amiss to observe that we fail to see how any editor can hope to ] further the public esteem for his paper by calling a brother editor ? a liar. The day of that sort of t crude journalism has passed. c ( The newspapers of the coun- j * try are carrying on a discussion j as to what disposition will be I made of Villa when captured, if ! r he be alive. This discussion is. | ? seems to us, a little ill-timed, t What would be better and more in season would be a guessing: contest as to when and where : the capture will take place. j ^ 1 Mr. W. D. Sullivan, for three i years manager of the Columbia \ Record, has given up his position \ with the Columbia paper and moved to Charlotte to assume the management of The Observer. Columbia's loss is Charlotte's gain. Mr. Sullivan had much to do with making The Record one of the best afternoon r papers in the South and those r who are familiar with his work c on that paper expect to see improvement in The Observer j r nnder his management. ! < i The conflicting nature of tho 1 j war reports which emanate from i Mexico and the Texas border ^ towns is such that the average j newspaper reader soon learns to regard them lightly. Only a few t days ago the dispatches had old ) Villa a one-legged man and f Tuesday morning's reports were j to the effect that the old scout had again evaded the searching j ^ party and, umvounded. was'1 headed south. Little attention j should be paid the reports from [ Mexico unless they come by I e official Washington. IJ .1 Oil > A . < 1 rues ana nun pro togemer. r Fo filth, no flies! About the only | good thing that you can say about the fly is that his presence should stimulate you to hunt up the place where he was born and destroy it so that it may breed no more of his kind. Fly swat- I1 ting- may be a popular pastime, j It has been talked about much. So far, it has prove ineffective. n The well-meaning person, apply- j, ing a swatter at every opportun- j 7 iky, kills one fly at a time. The j [\ r moval of the contents of a ! t" single manure box will swat mil- 2 lions of them at a blow. Screens n nnrl civattAPQ n < ? < >? i/l tViinrr but a clean neighborhood is the I ' best. Get busy! ! p On the screen at one of the ,? Rock Hill picture theatres there ji has been appearing a notice that s< is, according to our way of think- A ing, calculated to injure rather s than help the new county propo- * sition. It admonishes visitors to the show to sign the petition for Catawba county, and "watch the 'good town' grow." This j r sign is likely to cause outsiders to conclude that this whole bus- V iness was gotten up solely u to boost up the city of Rock Hill, and should this belief pre- ? vail throughout the area affected J hundreds. there be who would s< vote against it. Fact is, if the w argument quoted is the prime ^ reason for a new county, we are ^ inclined to be "a-gin it." r' ir The proposed new county of cl Catawba has a possible excess margin of 137 square miles in u the territory ii.dicated instead of only 37 square miles as u,- vv advertently indicated in the last issue of The Enquirer. York 1 county can spare 160 square ntileR over the 500 square miles g( that must be left to her: Chester 0| can spare 92 square miles, and :ri Fairfield 270 square miles, mak- m ing a total of 527 square miles for the new county where only st 400 square miles are actually a necessary.

The cattle sale held at Rock ill last Wednesday was a big lccess from every standpoint, 3 we gather from those who 'ere on the grounds. There 'as some good stock and it rought good prices, ranging rom 5 to 7 1-2 cents per pound, 'he money value of the product mounted to approximately $16.130 and this should help the ommunity considerably, being urned loose just at this time.
