We ask for your banking business on just those grounds. We are care ful in making loans and avoid all risks. We have fire and burglar proof vaults, and carry, insurance to protect our de positors. We keep our reserves in the strongest financial institutions in America. * This policy has caused our bank to merit the confidence of the public and become a solid financial institution.

If elected, I pledge myself to stand for the principles *>{ democracy fo/ which the Democratic party has stood in the past. I would advocate partic ularly the following: _ * A further reduction of the tari#*an all t)i« necessiti^Cpf life and an in Trease, if~hecessarjr, on" luxuries. I would suplement our revenue^ by r tax on larjfe incomes and by an inheritance tax when colossal fortunes pas: from one member of the family to another. ' ' ' ." ~ I would advocate a Rural Credit Bill upon the amortization plan—a bill without unnecessary red tape and strings tied to it, as in the present bill in Congress, allowing the borrower, on his real estate, five to thirty-six yearf to repay the amount borrowed at a rate of not more than five or six pei cent interest. * A uniform wsrehouse law for the grading and storing of farm product: such as cotton, wheat, tobacco, etc., receipts for commodities thus store*' to be accepted for loans at the Federal Reserve Bank. .A less expenditure of Federal monies to make navigable waterles: creeks and rivers and for*the placing of water upon the arid lands of thi west and a use of a portion of this money for the taking off by drainage of the surplus water from the rich alluvial lands of our coast region, bringing ipto cultivation for home-seekers millions of seres of the most fertile land: in the world. These lands can be drained for an expenditure of from $5 U $7 per aere and are worth twenty tjmes as much when so divined. I believe in liberal appropriations for good roads, the extension of rural mail routes, the dissemination of knowledge of agriculture in the rural communities, the teaching of agriculture as it pertains to soil building, fer tilization, etc., in our rural schools. I advocate preparedness against any possible invasion, giving particu lar attention to the size and power of our navy. I would check all extravagant appropriations. Fifty years after the Civil War the number of pensioners and the amount received by each is still increasing and the amount paid cut of the treasury of the United States for those who overpowered the South, amounts to 1162,000,000 an nually. Nothing like this has been known heretofore in the history of the world. * - • . t T * >e 1 nited Slat— ahouM nut itself upon record as favoring a concert of tHe nations submitting all differences between them to arbitration or to an International Court, the decrees of which are to be enforced by peace ful means, if possible, by force if necessary. ~ * These and many other questions are before the public of today and a wise solution of them will make for the peace and prosperity of the nation.

Mr. Etheredge is a native of Saluda, as his people have lived continu ously within sight of old Red Batik church here for nearly 150 years, his ancestor, Samuel Etheredge, receiving from George III in 1772 a grant of land on the waters of Red Bank creek. Samuel and two sons served in the famous' Snow campaign, which drove the* Indians from this country over the mountains into Tennessee; he also, with four sons, served throughout the Revolutionary war as an ardent Whig, one of the sons being killed by the Tories and the father and another son being wounded at the Stdr Fort, near Ninety Six. One of the family served in the Seminole war. Mr. Eth- eredge’s grandfather and great uncle were members of Capt. Jones’ rifle company, called the Mt. Willing Nullifiers, organized with many other mili tia companies to defend the state if necessary in those troublesome times of nullification.

Finding^this impossible with no men left to carry on the work, she with her family, moved to Granitcville in the Horse Creek Valley, where she went into business, being known far and wide and loved by all who came in contact with her. At his mother’s request, after her death Col. Etheredge established a scholarship fund at Furman University, and from this fund many worthy young men hgve been enabled to secure a college education. . * Mr. Etheredge grew up in Granit2ville, receiving his primary education at the Granitcville academy. He attended Richmond academy in Augusta, afterward going to Furman, where he received his B. S. degree, later tak ing a two years course in civil engineering. Returning to Granitcville, he organized and built the original Carolina Light and Power Coon Little Horse Creek, probably the first of the kind in the South.
