In a previous campaign year a per sonal friend told u« that he had no prcferenca among the candidates for certain offices and offered to support those that we might wish elected We devltned to Indicate our eluded and ad- vl-ed our friend to Inform himself from other source* of the merit* of the » v era) candidate* and on his own judg ment to vole for the best all round as pirant. Wa have adhered to that rule con sistently and shall continue to do an, believing that in *o doing we give each a square deal and because we have faith In the desire and Intention of the majority of the voter* to select and elect the best public servants. We have given and shall continue to glva sketches of the candidates whose cards appear In Tn* Psorta, not to Influence votes, but for the reason that many voters In the county do not know and mav not form the acquaintance o( all the candidate* that may be In the race. These unacquainted voter* have the right to he Informed of what we know of the candidate* and It I* a pleasant duty to Introduce the vote seekers to the vote givers B*fore the battle of the ballot# tomes there will be time to Investigate such statement* a* we may make We wish vou all mighty well gentle men.

A New York broker has written to President J. C. Anderson of the Rock Hill reduction plan posting him as to why mills are buying so much cotton. They reason that the present price is bcl >w tbe cost f>f producing the staple, ai^d that |f a short crop I* made this year they will have enough cotton on hand and within reach to keep them busy and prospering until the 1813 crop Is made and Comes to market. If, however, another great crop sdould be grown this year the mllL having surplus stocks in their ware- houses or under their control will throw the old blue crop on the market, thereby depressing the price of the good new cotton. According to their well laid plans the mills are sure to win and p.-osper, be thla year’* crop little or largo.

Is an interesting historical com part non, at least: Colbnel Roosevelt's announcement Monday morning of hi* candidacy came on the 87th anniversary of the es cape of Napoleon from Elba. The Back From Elba club Is at work. Tbe 100 days’ campaign Is on. Tbe republican national convention meets In Gfrtcago Anne 18, the anniver sary of the-battle of VVatetloo, Unlike Napoleon’s flight from Elba, about which there waa the prof.mndmit seerstcy, Mr. Roosevelt returns with a fanfare of trumphets HI* entrance ha* been discounted and ha*cati*ed no surprise. But there are many points of similarity with that of the flr*t back- from-Elba movement which will strike tha student of history. Napoleon, preparing to re-enter Franco, said : “Nr> example lu .hlstvry would in duce me to undertake It. But I have reckoned upon the astonishment of the population, the condition of the public f ellng, resentment against the allied powers, the love of my soldiers and the Napoleonic elements which are spring ing up in France, I count on the stupor and bewilderment which will be the natural result of an enterprise so au daClout and unexpected. Men will form a thousand project*, hut not come to a decision. I shall reach my goal before any plan has been organized against me.” Tbe question* being asked today are : Wid Mr. Roosevelt again reacn his goal? Will tbe love of hi* soldier* bo snlllelently efL-ctlve? Will the WO d.iy»’campaign end with a Wateiloo? At the Opera House tomorrow even ing. •‘The Devil”—a singular bit of symbolism in modern garb.
