Set down that man as low bred and of vicious disposition Wiho ridicules virtue, speaks disparagingly of good men and women, and makes fun of sacred things and institutions. The strength and permanece of the republic does not lie with the multimillionaires but with the farmers anu with the men who take the raw material of the farm and forest aqd convert it into things that minister to the confort and well being of all (lasses. Millionaire bondholders may create and stop panics but they do not promote the welfare of the nation only as they co-operate with tne producer and the workman. When a man is through with his day's work and is sitting down destlng in his home, he cannot read the advertisements on the fence, nor the hand bills and circulars that w.ere left on the doorstep during the day and which have blown away or been destroyed. He calls for his home paper and ther finds not only the news of his uminediute community, but the 'announcements of his home merchauts who are his neighbors and friends, and with nothing to bother his mind he reads it carfully and calls bis wife's attention to it and they decide they will go to the stores and examine what is advertised. If the merchant has not overstated the facts he will profit by bis announcement in the public press. If he's a prevaricator and dosen't say what be means he need not expect advertising to save him. for when a business man is tricky it dosen't take long for the news to travel over the neighborhood and he will be the one to suffer in the eud. Pcpe Pius X Is Dsad. Rome.?The Pope's death occurred at 1:20 o'clock In the morning. Grief over the war in Europe caused the Pope much depression from the first outbreak and severul days ago symptoms appeared of the old bronchial affection from which the Polntiff had suffered in tfmes past. IF YOU OWN /YOl'R FARM ISK j PRIMED STATIONARY Every farmer who owns his farm ought to have printed stationary with his name and the name of bis farm and his post office address properly given. The printed heading might also give the names of whatever crops he speacializes In, and of whatever varieties of seed or whatever breeds or nogs, cattle or poultry ne Keeps. Printed stationary gives one standing "with whatever person or firm be is wrighting to besides insuring that your name and address will always be read properly.

Boyd jCreighton, of this city, who is and has been for several years, a most useful member of the hoard of trustees of the Rock Hill school district, and of the city council. Judge Moore decides jlhat Mr Creighton cannot hold both offices and that in accepting election t) the city council he abondoned the office of school trustee. This action was brought by the State of South Carolina upon information of John T. Roddey. | There has been considerable interest cud much speculation upon the probable outcome of this case. Whether fl.'r Creighton will appeal to a higher tourt is not yet known. Certain it ji . however, that should he accept this I udgement, or should an appeal fail, jlio ousting of Mr Creighton deprives Rock Hill of Mr Creighton deyblM. Fuck Hill of one of the most valuble officers the city has ever elected. As a matter of fact there are some 1 listrious precedents in the Stat which while they may not be according 1j law, uphold the justice of Mr Creighton's position, and should some citizen be so patriotic as to bring a case a gainst them it would seem Ahai it wuld seem that the decision would be the same, the letter of the law being very plain that no man can hold "two offices of honor.,, HONEST CONFESSION.

It desires to sav now that these doubts were soon dissipated. In common with thousands of South Carolinians .it is firm in the opinion that but for the able and courageous work of these men the story which afforded to so many of us on Tuesday night the profoundest satisfaction migrt well have had a vastly different complexion. This is but a just tribute to the above named patriots. Suprise has been expressed in some quarters that Messrs. Jennnings and Pollock received so few votes in the primary. Tins in itself a most significant tribute to the two men, showing as it doea that tj'ieir friendis and admirers so throughly understood the spirit of their sacrficflcial services for South Carolina and their sacrficfiial services for South Carolina and their desire to defeat "Bleaoeism" above any personal advantage that they directly voted for Senator Smith, deciding, as we have good reason to believe, in thousands of cases and at the last moment not to cast even "complimentary" votes for Jennings, and Pollock.?Columbia Recorc^^fl CflBAT BATTLE GlGEMENT. Nature of Fighting Is Not Made Pnb. lie Beyond Admission by the French War Office That the French and British Lines Are Moved Rack. So far as can be gleaned from official announcements, the great battle lin along the French frontier and in Belgium continues to be the scene of engagements between the opposing armies. The nature of these engagements and their results have not been made public beyound admission by the French war office that in the north the French and British lines have been moved back a short distance, as has the French right in the region of St. Die. The French troops on the offensive between Nancy anl Voges are said to be making headway. From Antwerp comes the announcement that the Belgian troops have compelled the fourth German division, advancing south, to retrace itp steps, it is added in the official state ment that the fourth Belgian division at Xaniur has fulfilled its task of arresting the German column anl allowing the Belgians to retire on the French line The French ministers under Premier Viviani presented their resignations collectively to President Poin; care because they believe that in the present circumstances the ministry should have a wider scop and comprise the best of all the republican groups. Premier Viviani at the request of President Poincare immediately formed a new cabinet in which Alexanlre Milleranl took the place of war and The ophile Delcasse assumed the portfoliolio of foreign affairs, which previously was held by M. Vivioni himself. The new cabinet includes Kx-Premiers Ilryand, Douinergue and Itihout.
