Th? State fair is in progress in Co-: w
lumbia this week. The attendance ^
v I C(
on opening day was materially larg-! ^
er than last year, the authorities re-' n:

week. j p

''photographs" of the famous British! ti
tanks, which have been wreaking so j ?s

much havoc at the battle front in j C(

nothing whatever in common, we U

The Columbia Record Sunday is- h<
sued a magnificent textile industrial c<
T*
edition containing 120 pages. It was
a splendid piece of work and it must, ti

The general election will be held1 e;
' \ ; on November 7th. Let every Demo-! g]
crat get his registration certificate:
ready and be on hand to vote for the i
i as
nominees of the Democratic party,j p^
from president down. The country ] p]
has confidence in president Wilson; jp(
let that confidence be expressed at
the polls on election day.
The New York World and the New ni
York Herald, newspapers of national ^
circulation and influence, say that the ^
Hughes campaign has fallen flat, and
tht the political tide is fast turning
to Wilson. Hughes, says the Herald,
1 is much weaker than his party, while f4
.. b<
Wilson is decidedly stronger tnan nis
party. It is true that there are not ^
sufficient "regular" Democrats in the
country to elect Wilson, but in the _
iv' \ b(
, great West, the voters are not rockbound
to any party, and usually vote
on issues rather than for any party.
The president has had the greatest ^
reception in the West ever accorded
ec
[? ' ' any man, according to the press dispatches.

The Greenwood Journal has been
deprecating the presence of a carni- ^
val at the county fair there a week
n<
or two ago. Some of the shows were
so bad, it says, that the mayor had g
them closed up. The Journal won- ^
ders if something cannot be done to =
|keep carnivals away. There is a
very simple remedy?a remedy that
has been applied for some time in
this county. And that is for the
county authorities to enforce the lift
cense
law in regard to attractions
showing under a tent or tents. There1
is a State license of 3100 per day for;
tent shows. Since this law has been
!
enforced Nhere, there have been no
- \ carnival shows or any other kind of;
% tent shows.

Cotton is selling for an unheard of
price. It was 18 1-2 in Bamberg;
Tuesday, and will probably be twenty j
cents soon?maybe higher. We do(
not think that it is a good thing for
the country for cotton to bring such
a high price at* this season of the
year. The great bulk of the crop
has been sold, and the present prices;
? will do the farmers very little good.
The soaring price of cotton will carry
with it high prices for everything
/ else, and most of the people will be
better off if cotton should hold up
for a while. J j
