Such a condition should not exist and something should be done to'cor- rect the practice of people who have no sense of propriety and less of honesty taking flowers which are placed on the graves of the dead by those n;ho hold their memory dea-. On two occasions, within the last few days. 1 have placed flower* on the grave o’ one dear to me. and have gone bai k later to find that some vandal has taken them away. Only by human hands could these have been removed. If wind had blown them away, they could have been found sorhewhere within the lot. It sewn* to me that the lot owners there should unite and provide for a keeper. The cemetery is one of the most beautiful places in this locality, but it needs some one there to take constant care of it. I think that it would be entirely practical to pro vide such a keeper, and I am sure that i' every lot owner would contri bute fifty (er.ts a month, the money so ra?s*<! would provide a keeper who could give to the cemetery all of the time that ir required. I am willing to act as collector if the people think that such an undertking is practical. Ortainlc something should !>“ done to take better care of the city of the dead, and I am will.ng to do my share with this object in view. Mrs T. J. Blanchard. IMPROVED GARAGE.

F. von KOLNTTZ, CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS. I am a candidate for Congress from the First Congressional District to fill the vacancy occa sioned by the death of my lamented friend, Hon. George S. Legare. The period of time before the election is short, and it is a physical impossibility tor me to ap proach each voter in the district as I should like to do. explain to him my hopes and plans for the en hancement of all that pertains to the Counties composing our district. * EXPERIENCE. I have had a large 'legislative experience— having been a member of Legislature in 1890 for tour years, a member of the Constitutional Con vention in 1895, 'State Senator 1902 and again a member of the House of Representatives in 1907. a I believe that this experience, coupled with a prac tice of 23 years at the Bar, fits me to discharge the duties of the office if I am elected. \ FARMING. Since 1894 I have been * actively engaged in planting on a comparatively large scale, and I think that I feel and realize the neqds and require ments of the agricultural interests of our dis trict. \ DRAINAGE. Our section of the State is particular fertile, a large portion being covered with swamp land. The Government has expended enormous sums of money to irrigate the arid lands of the West; mv effort will be to endeavor to divert some of w that money to drain the lands of our district. The health and prosperity of our district is dependent in no small degree ui>on the removal of the stag nant waters which breed disease and lessen the value of our property. As a member of the Sani tary and Drainage Commission of Charleston ’ County, which has had charge of this work, I am well acquainted by practical experience with the benefits which have accrued to that portion of Charleston County in wl^ich^ve have been able to operate. ROADS. , Of primal importance to the man who lives away from the city is the subject of ROADS. The ability to haul and move the products of the farms with ease and quickness adds much to the value of the land and the income of the individual. National aid should be this subject. ORGANIZED LABOR. Tre right of the working man to combine for his own benefit is one of the cardinal planks in the platform of the Democratic party. I condemn government by injunction and I hold thac no in- junotion should be issued in a case where there is conflict between organized labor and the employ er. unless such injunction would have been issued under the strict rules governing The use of this high and extraordinary remedy in the case be tween the individuals. 1 The rr.aiftttiXiar.ee and extension of the Navy \ ard at ( htrrles- ton and the advancement of ail that may aid in the dev^pment df her commercial prosperity and prestige is close to my heart, and if elected I shall bend my even* effort to further the good work which has been so ably done by my departed friend. IN CONCLUSION. I solicit your vote—My character and integrity is a matter of public knowledge, and it would be improper for me to do more than advert to them. ■, . ' , . A ^ I believe that I can be of service to the district to the party if sent to the National Halb of Legislation, and I bespeak your kind consideration, vote and support. Very respectfully, GEORGE F. von KOLNITZ. (Advertisement.) ° \ 'x r \
