Candidate Hughes.
After reading the statement
given the press by Chas. E.
Hughes immediately following
his nomination Saturday after
THH)n by the Republicans for
President, it is not hard to believe
that partisan Republicanism
of the most extreme type was |
not a prerequisite to a seat on 1
the Supreme Court bench under
Republican administrations. Candidate
Hughes, from the Republican
point of view?which
puts party above every other
consideration, preaches the enrichment
of the few at the expense
of the many and encourages
the sort ot sectionalism that
militates against the South ?is
an ideal candidate. It will be
unfortunate for the country if
he is elected?especially unfortunate
for the South. We
doubt whether Candidate Hughes
ever spent altogether half an
hour in serious thought over the
conditions which this section has
had to and still has to wrestle
with. The country is well rid
of his services as a member of
the Supreme Court. It will be
better off rid of him as a de^
?*? 4 d Ty-IM 1 U/\ OMAO*
icattu lanuiuuir iui me i i tj*idency.
But if money can elect
him, he will be President Wilson's
successor. The mighty
trusts, corporations and other
illegal combinations in the North
will not dole out the dollars with
a miserly hand in Candidate
Hughes' behalf. They will put
up all the money considered
necessary, knowing that they
are always safer from the law
under Republican than under
Democratic administration. Candidate
Hughes' references to
"Americanism" and the foreign
policy of the Wilson administration
are not apt to cost the
President many votes. It is
poor policy to be too certain of
success in political contests, but
there seems to be no good reason
to believe that next March will
see a change in the country's
chief executive. If it does,
there are more fools in America
than we suspected.
Democratic voters should not
delay in placing their names on
the club roll, for delay may mean
that you will be deprived of voting
in the coming primaries. The
fact that you enrolled two years
ago will not give you the right
to vote this year. The whole
thing must be done over. This
x-? i u, 1I..1
is necessary lur me leasun mm
the rules of t wo years ago have
been enaeted into law and provides
that a new enrollment must
be made every two years. So,
Mr. Voter, if you care to vote in
the approaching primary, you
must go to your nearest enroll-1
rolling precinct and sign up in
full -not just your initials. It
must be "John Henry Smith"
and not "J. H. Smith"?or whatever
be your full name.
Henry C. Tillman, second son
of United States Senator B. R.
Tillman, and an attorney of
Greenwood, has filed his pledge
with the secretary of state as a
candidate for Congress from the
Third Congressional district.

A dispatch from New York
says;
Louis F.nricht has sold the
secret formula of his penny and
a half gallon for $2,000,000!
Enrieht's neighbors in the little
village of Farmingdale. down on
Long Island, thought Enricht
dreaming when he claimed he
could operate an aucomonue witn
a mysterious gr^en liquid he
invented. But the Maxim
Munition Company figured the
formula so good it has agreed to
pay $1,000,000 in cash and
$1,000,000 in stock to the in1^,1
H
HMMmMbmh
ventor.
The process of manufacture,
according to Enricht, is very
simple. Four ounces of a strange
chemical mixture, green in
color, is stirred into five gallons
of water. The solution goes into
the auto's tank and the auto
luns just as it would if fed with
gasoline.
The cost of manufacturing the
liquid is about one and one-hall
cents a gallon.

From Our County Exchanges.
Mrs. Ada Cureton Mayo, wife
of Mr. J. YV. Mayo, of Charlotte,
died in Asheville, N. C., Tuesday
morning (6tii). after a long
period of illness from heart
trouble, aged 41 years. Mrs.
Mayo was a native of Fort Mill,
and was a daughter of the late
Thos. J. Cureton and Mrs. Rose
Cureton, now of Charlotte, who
survives her.
The county chaingang quarters
which for more than a year has
been situated on the county home
property, two miles east of Yorkville,
were moved this week to
the Finley place near Tirzah A.
R. P. church. It will hardly be
necessary for the chaingang to
change its quarters again within
a year.
At a meeting of the York town
council Tuesday evening. Chief
of Police P. W. Love and Policeman
J. W. Richardson were reelected.
There were a number
of applicants for the positions.

At the meeting in Laurens
last week of the Epworth League
convention, the League was
divided into the Upper and
Lower South Carolina Leagues.
Rev. J. C. Roper of Rock Hill
was elected secretary for the
Upper League.
"Bill Byers" stated toa Record
man Monday morning that he
was "a Bull Moose, a German
sympathizer and a Bleaseite,"
and that "I am out of politics."
That looks like he will not be
the next clerk of court for York
county.
Mrs. Sallie Johnson, the wife
oi i>. in. Johnson, died at her
home on the northern outskirts
oi York, Friday afternoon at
3:45 o'clock. She had been in
very poor health for seven years
of rheumatism and had been
confined to her bed for about
one r.ionth. She lacked but two
days of being 55 years of age.
Little New County Talk.
Very little talk has been heard
on the streets of Fort Mill within
the last week with reference
to the formation of the proposed
new county. The decision of the
supreme court on the constitutionality
of the ill-shaped county
act of the general assembly of
1912 is awaited with considerable
interest and if the decision is in
the negative both the friends and
opponents of the proposition are
expected to become active at
once. The committee which was
appointed at the recent meeting
in the Masonic hall to consider
and lay before the public the
statistics read to the meeting by
Mr. Boyd Creighton has not yet
organized, it is understood, and
it is said will not do so if the
constitutionality of the act is upheld.
The Weekly Pay Day.
The following opinion handed
down last week by Attorney
General Peoples is of general
interest in York county:
"It cannot have been intended
that the corporations shall pay
u <inroc off J 4
r nfvo vii cyci.y ncveii nays mat
the wages may be earned, as
the act requires a regular pay
day once in every week, and not
a moveable pay day, according
to the time the employes may
have actually worked.
"1 am. therefore, of the
opinion that the proper construction
of the act requires the
corporations to fix a certain day
in every week upon which day
they will pay the wages earned
during the preceding calendar
week. While it would be more
convenient to the corporation to
have only four pay days during
a reriod of SO or St duve
would not, in my opinion, meet
the requirements of the statute/'

President.
Mr. W. F. Stevenson for Congress.
Comment of the Chesterfield
county newspapers on county
sentiment shown at the convention:
"The Chesterfield county convention
was notable for its representative
attendance, being
composed of men from practically
every club in the county. It
was even more notable for its
unity and enthusiasm, especially
i n tin o "*4-? rv *-* *-v /I i r* 4 Vv.v aIi
I in ILO atiiuu cuuuidin^ me tanuidacy
of Hon. W. F. Stevenson;
for Congress. Partisan lines;
which cut deeply into his vote in
I this county two years ago have
been obliterated and a united
county is behind him, and the
enthusiasm shown on the subject
on last Monday warrants the
prediction that his majority in
this county will be the greatest
ever given a candidate here who
had an opponent." ?TheCheraw
Chronicle; May 4, 1916.
"It i? said that Chesterfield I
county is united as she has not i
been in thirty years before. This!
unity means much for the peace
of the county during the coming
campaign and it may mean much !
more. It may mean that Chesterfield
county will furnish the
next Representative from the
Fifth Congressional District to
the United States Congress.

ed at this convention represents,

the county. Mr. Stevenson is
sure of every vote to be cast in
this county next fall?and that
