When You (jet Into I'olitica, They
Say:
"Well, I think Hill Smith is a pretty
good fellow, but he orders all of
his clothes and shoes from Spears &
Jobuck, and he let an out-of-town
man fix his dog house last summer."
"1 mcnt to vote for Sam Hippg,
but I just heard that his great grand*
daddy was u Tory, and it will be a
dangerous thing to put such n man
into the office of treasurer."
"I notice that I'cter iiillikep is out
for May or. He has made a mistake.
He shaves himself, and that
means 4hat the barbers w;ll fight
.him; he walks to work, and the
street ear folks have it in doi him. ,
Ills wife's cousin rs a"*Catholic and
that is enough for the Bafdists to
fight him on. Nope, he can't make
it."
".Jule Smoots is. pfotsibly qll-right
to run a bank, but he is ? hkjh-hatter.
And he drinks some ;it night,
and 1 heard this morning that he refused
to buy any War Savings stamps
in JH and 17. The Methodists will
seatch h i in because lie doesn't believe
that .Jonah actually swallowed
the whale, hooks like he would have
more, sense than to run for congress, j
"(iuess you heard that Mike Strong
whipped his wife about 20 years ago
while he was living out West? Well,
they say fie did that thing. And furthermore
he believes, in evolution:
that kills him with the l'reshyterians,
and his oldest son has jake paralysis,
and he won't get a sirtgle prchihilionist
vote. And he ain't fit for the
legislature no how. He don't pay
no taxes except the poll and the
dog. He's already beat."
" l thought old man Bulldozer was
a fine man until he came out for
the senate. He broke up-5?different
bird's nests when fie was a boy,
and he snores in his sleep, he eats
with his front teeth, fie won't let
his girls run around at night, and
he owed the Last National bank a
note for $11.00 when it busted. He
won't get the vote of his kinfolks?
as he endorsed and paid notes for
nearly every one of them."
So, friends, when you enter politics
you invite the smut toters and the
gossipper and the "they say" folks
to riddle you and your family and
your character and their religion
from Adam to last night. They will
talk about you and your clog and
your debts and your everything else,
ami the worst part of the whole thing
is- part of it is oftentimes so.
(Selah).
Let Me See Your Census
(ial'fhu'g is terribly hurt because
: the census showed that her populaj
turn decreased .Ml per cent during the
l pa-t 10 years. That's rL'ht though:
I remember when old man Smith died
in the summer of 10 and 25.
It ha- been pretty hard for a great
many t.auis to show any gains with
jake paralysis, birth control, parrott
fever, bonis and Chevrolets having
so much to do with life and death
since the last count. Most places
seem to be interested only in the
quantity rather than the quality of
their citizen shlfT"
What will worry some of our towns
j will not lx> so much the decrease in
{population as the increase of jobless
| men. It looks like it would be much
Yivcr to have a village with 1,00<>

j olio f V.k- witji positions and 500 loaf.

thoae present. Villa Hites had a
population of Mr. and Mrs. Brown
and their 7 children in 10 and 20,
hut in 10 and 20, according1 to the
real estate advertisements, she had i
1,800 souls within her environment, '
hut the census man knocked on sev?
eral hundred doors in that town the
other day, and nary u guy did he
have tiie pleasure of writing down.
It ii fine for the government to
tabulate us every now and then. But
if Mr. Hoover had thought to ask i
the census takers to find out what :
the financial status of each individu 1
al was, these would he the answers !
Own your home? No, Own a car?
Yes. Hank account? No. Working;
regularly? Occasionally. Radio?
Yes. Do you want a home? No
Why? Taxes.
There are 1 1 other reasons why our
town did not shove a greater increase,
viz: Mr. Bottx and his family moved
away. Hut we certainly counted
everybody that stood still long e-H
nough to he counted. We didn't J
want another burg to beat us and
we rejoiced exceedingly when Billville
fell off bo'J, Hut Billville claims
that she got rid of all her undesir
ahles and dead beats, and that's
something to crow about if you didn't
but know it. In looking over my
hook.-, I can pick out some of Billville's
ex-populution.

Wife Changes Mind
And Lands In Jail
Evanston, 111., May 22.?Wives who
contemplate having their husbands
arrested should know what happened
to Mrs. James Morris and be guided
accordingly.
Mrs. Morris had her husband arrested
yesterday. She charged nonsupport.
Morris had hardly been
ensconced in the bastile before Mrs.
Morris appeared before Magistrate
porter and announced she hail changed
her mind.
"After all," she said, "I guess
James supports mo. Ho is really
not a bad husband. In fact, he is
quite a good husband. We'll just
drop the action'and let him out of
jail."
The magistrate became stern.
"All right. We'll let him out of
jail. but. Madam, it is about time
you wives called a halt to the practice
of blaming your husbands every
i time something goes wrong. You
had him arrested. You humiliated
' and degraded him. Then you change
your mind and say you were wrong."
"Very well, you were wrong.
Your hu-hand is hereby released.

Fate Against Those
In Trial of King
The hand of f?te has not dealt
lightly with participant* in the trial
of Kafe K. King, who was convicted
at Cheater la^t July of the murder
of hu wife, Faye Wilson King, at "
Sharon, York county, earlier in the
year, the trial having taken place
at Chester after Judge J. Henry
Johnson decided that a change of
venue from York county was necessary
to insure King a fair trial.
Circuit Judge J. K. Henry, who
heard the case, has suffered a slight
stroke of paralysis since the trial.
J. A. Marion, of York, leading assistant
to*,former Solicitor J. Lylea
Glenn in preparing the case for the
State and to Solicitor Harry Hines
at the trial, died several months ago.
Mrs. Margaret Gartman, who talked
with King trie day after his wife
was found dead in an outhouse at
their home at Sharon and testified
for the State at the trial, has died
since the trial, it is stated.
Dr. J. G. Hord, of Kings Mountain,
i N\ C\, who performed the autopsy
' on the body of Mrs. King, died rc|
cently.
H. L. Johnson, whose name was
t mentioned during the interrogation of
j jurors as having been active in
spreading propaganda agonist. King,
suffered a stroke of paralysis at hid
home in York county a few days ago.
Sheriff Fred K. Quinn, of York
j county, who investigated the death
i of Mrs. King and assisted Solicitor
: Glenn in obtaining information, has
1 been ill lately and only recently i*i
turned to his home from a hospital
in Charlotte, Deputy Sheriff Tom
(^u;nn, who took care of King during
! hi-, .-tay in the York county jail, is
! ill m a Charlotte hospital.
Meanwhile King is held in close
confinement at the penitentiary in
Columbia awaiting the decision of the
supreme court as to whether he will
be granted a new trial. If the decision
of the court is adverse to him,
J.
his hope of escaping the electric
chair is in the governor.
King stoutly maintains his inno.
eence. A few days ago it was suggested
to him that the most damaging
evidence the State presented
against him was the finding of the
alleged blood-besmeared suit of clothing
that admittedly belonged to him
at his home. He said the last time
he saw the suit was six months be
fore the death of his wife when he
tried to trade it to a negro for a
cabfc*-Fort Mill Times. j
