In selecting a bank in which to do
business, the thing of first impor
tance is the reliability of that bank,
the safety of the funds entrusted to it.
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. It is s good bank for you.

COL. ALVIN ETHEREDGE CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS.
MY PLATFORM.
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.

COL. ALVIN ETHEREDGE,
(The Saluda Standard, May ^25, 1916.
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.
All the family able to bear arms went to the front during the Civil war,

and at the end of this his mother, now a widow, attempted to carry on the
plantation. 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. However, the call “Back
to the Land” waa too much for him and he returned to his farm in Saluda
more than 20 years ago, where he has been ever ince. .
