In a radio apeech attacking the
Itepublicun party a night or two ago
John W. Davi* xaid this; "Year after
year and campaign after campaign,
they have tempted the voter with the
prospecth of ?iiifting his bidden to
another man's back, or of hharing in
donations from tin* government's bottomless
purse, it is a pernicious doc \
trine, a dangerous doctrine, u damnable
and a destroying doctrine. When
those who have sown this wind reap
tiie whirlwind, they huve none but
themselves to blame." And he said
something the people of this country
had better be pondering seriously."
Spartanburg Horald.
An liiNicHt Man.
A man died *IEfie other duy in New
V ork, whose business record contained
not a single blemish. Daniel
Guggenheim and his five brothers,
sons of Meyer Ouggenheirn, made
money by literally tens of millions.
They made it in one of the three
fundamental industries. ?' There ure
three lines of business which increase
the world's basic wealth and only
three; they are farming, fishing and
mining. The Guggenheim* were miners,
owners of the world's largest
sources of copper.
They let others .share the profits of
their mining enterprises, but they
never let anyone share their losses.
If a mining prospect "petered out"
before it hud returned the money invested
in developing it, the Guggenheim
brothers shouldered all the loss;
In one instance * they repaid more
than $ I ,.>00,000 to investors, out of
their own pockets, because the mine
in which they had invested did not
turn out as well as had been expect(
ed.
It was Daniel Guggenheim's money,
$2,500,000 of it, which went to finance
the extensive-^experiments made
in the past three or four years, looking
towurd making aviation safer.
In many other ways he was a public
benefactor. But he will be remembered
all over the world?for his operations
were world-wide?primarily
as ah honest man, whose pride it was
to deal justly with his fellow-men.?

Malaria
Malaria, commonly called chills
v and fever, is a disease which is most
prevalent at this season. Quite a
number of cases have been reported
by the physicians recently, which
shows that several persons arc suffering
unnecessary illness and pain
as well as the financial loss thereby
incurred-un- -account?-of?the?fact-that?
the disease is entirely preventable.
I he mode of transmission is by the
mosquito carrying the infection from
the blood of a victim of the disease to
a healthy individual. Therefore should
all breeding places for the mosquito
he destroyed, the disease would Ik1
stamped out. Consequently let e\?ry
one investigate the premises upon
which they live and do away with all
tin cans, tubs or other vessels with
water standing in them as well as all
pools or ponds which might be drained
properly. Should it not be possible
to destroy the mosquito then
the next best method to control malaria
is to have the house properly
screened against it, in order that no
one will 1hi bitten so as to run the
risk of being infected. Once an in-'
dividual'becomes infected it is necessary
to consult you physician so as
to get the proper treatment since
the mere fat t that quinine will cure
it is (n,.t all that m needed to effect
a compute cure in every case. Severe

Mr. and Mrs. Walter Mill.-. >f Anderson,
was killed instantly Friday afternoon
by his lft-year-old brother.
The young boy had loaded his gun to
kill a hawk which had l>een eating
chickens. He thought he heard a chicken
cry and picked up his gun when
the trigger caught on a chair, the
entire load entering the side of the
child's head.
Water Famine In
Threatened In East
New York, Oct. 14.?A prolonged
drought throughout the East today
brought fears of a water famine and
serious crop damage.
The actuation was viewed with such
alarm in Philadelphia that the Pr??byterian
Miniaterial Association urged
prayers be offered for rain. Ministers
were requested to lead their
congregations in asking for relief and
Mayor Mackey was asked to designate
next Sunday as a day for public
prayer.
Rain has not fallen to any appreciable
extent in Philadelphia for 18
days. -Throughout.* Pennsylvania
communities were suffering from a
shortage of water and crops were
being endangered by the dry spell.
At Mariette, Lancaster county^
house to house check of water leaks
was ordered and posters put up asking
residents to refrain from washing
clothes. . a

Cheapness of Life
A .man is lucky to die in bed these
days. He is killed in droves by automobiles,
and all are "unavoidable
accidents. They shoot him down,
on the flimsiest'pretexts, and the victim.
with no pistol in sight, "had his
hand on his hip-pocket." Once cock
of the walk and bull of the woods, he
is no longer king of beasts, in the
home menagerie. Universal suffrage
has brought other equalities. The old
hen how kills the rooster about as
often as the rooster kills the hen.
\S hite tenants are shooting up the
bosses. Over in Chesterfield the
other day, one of these share-cropper
went to the field of the "boss
man." whipped out his pistol and
laid him low. In marion last Friday
another white tenant killed a
"bos<" about crop differences.

FARM HAS NO SHOT DOWN
l. >l. mimmm
The farmer is experiencing herd
times. Much in being' written about
how hard hie lot happens to be with
low price* for hia crop* and livestock.
While he is having a hArd Lime
there is a bright aide to the gloomy
picture. An editorial in the Southern
Agrculturiat ha* a great deal to
auy concerning the fact that there
are no farmer bread line* like there
arc labor bread Uric* iu cities,
In closing, the editoriul has the
following to *ay in regard to the
farmer's ability to live at home iu
tight times;
"He is his own employer, hence
there are no shutdowns on the farm
except those of his own making. The
crops he raises?which are his manufactured
articles?are the result of
hi* Own efforts, personally directed.
If he produces feed stuffs for his
livestock, vegetables, eggs, poultry,
meat an(J fruit for his family, hard
"times should not hav? for him the
stark terror that falls to the lot of
the industrial worker out of u job
and with a family to support.
"Of course, all we have said about'
the farmer Is subject to condition.
Theoretically he is^-the most economically
independent man in the
world, in practice, however, many
farmers fail to take advantnge of
their opportunities and in many cases
place their sole reliance on one
cash crop, expecting it to make enough
money to buy feed and groceries.
Such farmers can be as vitally--affected
by hard .times and depressions
as the industrial worker in
the ycity. It is hoped that the farmers]
of the South will heed the bread
lines in the cities and see in them
a lesson which will induce them not
to depend on one crop alone but first
of all to assure a living from the
land for the family and the livestock,
thus making the farm a self-supporting
institution."
