When Tillman says that Rich
ards “should have been elected
Oovemor last year. If character and
ability to serve the people creditab
ly had been considered by the peo-
ple,” he throws a bombshell Into
the Blease ranks. „ Does he mean
that the present Governor has neith

THE COUNTY KUR.
\
Just four weeks from today and
third County Fair will be in full
swing. That it will far exceed any
that has so far been held, is the
opinion of everyone who thought
of It all. The people of the coun
ty have awakened to the importance
of the work being done by the
fair, and now they believe there
is no agency- -more potent in the
development of the resources of our
county than is the county Fair.
But we are wondering if our peo
ple are going to get all they might
irom this Fair. There are many
things to be learned by those who
are desirous of learning them. Let
the people come together with a
purpose of seeing what each other
is doing. Let those who have ex
hibits prepare them with care and
I send them in, so that they may be
able to back up their statements
as to what they are doing with
smoethltg substantial. 1 The - god
of harvests has been especially gen
erous to the people of the county
and they should let their exhibits
be a kind of thanks offering.
At the fair will be seen some of
the men of the State and of the
South who are very much in the
eye of the public. Just a touch of
politics will be given the people of
a county which loves nothing bet
ter than* an election. But we would
caution those who hear the speech
es. if they shall Ate along political
lines, that there are always two
sides to every question, and not to
be carried off their feet by the im
passioned oratory of any speaker.
This an age of calm thinking and
our people should beware of the
demagogue, and him who would
stir up strife. Colleton has more
to gale from an era of Industry and
frugally them from political cam
paign. But let the words uttered
by such men as Commissioner Wat
son of our own state and Editor
Poe of the other Carolina be re
ceived with ciigerneas, and taken
for wh&t they mean. As we have
before remarked, it Is from such
aa they that the real progress of lb
State is to come.
As a county institution, the coun
ty fair can have no equal. All
claeses of our people are united
in their love for old Colleton, and
tbelr determlntalon to hasten the
growth of the New Colleton. Meth
ods to bring this about may be a lit
tie different, but they are all sin
cere. The Fair will aid this. Here ;
all claeses of our people will meet \

the whites one made a certificate
as did one of the negroes. In some
of the other counties of the Staid
there were doaena of applicants. Ar

to stand these examinations? Or do)
they fee! that there la nothing in
the profeaelon of teaching? Have
they been encouraged to attempt to

Then, In the Welch Creek school,
district, last Thursday aa election
was held for the purpose of voting
aa extra levy for school purposes
and the levy was defeated. Snch a
thing hae never happened. In onr
knowledge, but one time before in
this county. For the people ir a '
district, whose school will run but a
few weeks thia year for the reason
that there Is not sufficient funds, |
to turn down the only means they ,
might have of helping out their
school. Is hard to understand. Sure- 1
ly there Is room for missionary
work In this district.
People of Colleton Coac4y: It
Is time to ws-ke up. The crime of
ignorance must not be laid at your !
door. Our children will rice up and

if things are not made better than
such things ss the above indicate
are previ-tlir-j in this county. This
education of our youth is a mat

HE National Cash Register turns
one man into three.
It enables a single merchant to do three
important things—to sell his goods—keep
his books and keep track of his cash.
It’s an investment, not an expense. It
actually pays for itself out of the leaks
that it stops. v
It reduces losses and thus enables the
dealer to sell his goods at normal profits.
It protects him against error—protects
the customer and the clerk in case of
dispute.
Buy from a store with a National Cash
Register.
It’s run on system and can always give
you “money’s worth.”
