They are fools when they do it. * :Jc ji< # Now before long .Mexico, we predict, will be able to take care of herself. * :'|C 5fr :Jc The telephone and rural free delivery are fast bringing* the country into town. * * * * Time and tide never wait for any man.

Some of them will get it at the primary. * * * * Look carefully after the water sup- j ply. Sec that surface impurities do not drain into the well. * * * * More cement sidewalks and paved streets. This is what we are looking and waiting for. * M * * Some people act entirely on imagination and never rely on the hard cold facts. * * * In this day and time it is not safe unless you keep your eyes open all the time for the Judas. * * * t There is no excuse why any dwelling should be without screens adequate to keep out the disease carriers. * * * * There was one man in Conway a . .few days ago who could out talk a woman, and you know now that he was some talker. * * + ' It would appear that several men have gone crazy over their incessant t study of the Mexican problem. How foolish some people will be. * + * A close observer sees many oddities in human nature every day of his life; it is seldom he finds any in himself. * He who hesitates is lost. This is a true saying now as it always was. but it is more important to heed its warning now than formerly. * * * * There are many grumbling about the hot weather without ever thinking that it may be stili hotter in some future state that is waiting for them. There is plenty cf talk on the street corners in every small town, which if known to the public would result in somebody landing in jail. * ? * ? The modern fashions as applied now are a shame and a disgrace, but you know we must put up with them, although Adam and Eve might blush. * * * The modern dances are bad enough from a moral point of view, but the dances will not hold a candle compared to some of the songs that are being sung. * * What has become of the street sprinkler that the town needed ? Why it is said that they are waiting to pave Main Street before buying the sprinkler. Let us hope so anyway. * * The only way to keep up with the times is to take hold and put the shoulder to the wheel and thus aid the march of progress. Get yourself swept on with the rush. # * What will you do with the young miss who seems to have an idea that she is attracting the attention and admiration of every young man she meets ? Why there is no way to change her. In a contest for the prettiest girl in the State, we are convinced that Conway would carry off the prize, notwithstanding some of the extravagant claims being made by some of the newspapers in other counties. * * The oiitlook for the tobacco crop was blue this year until now the crop is well known to be twice as large as the people expected; and to clinch the matter the prices being paid for j it are cood. * * * * Sometimes the smoothest talker and best looking man that visits the farmers with something to sell turns | out to be the sharpest fakir. Remember this and deal with such at arms length. * * * * Now is the time to take every precaution within your power to keep out the mosquitoes and the house flies. And never forget to be careful I what you eat and what you drink. It ; may carry the dreadful germs of ty phoid. * * * * The Bleaseites make no secret of the fact that they are organized with a coramitte in each county who in turn have appointed three solid Blease men at each precinct. It was organization such as this which helped to carry the election for Blease in the past. * * * * The manager of any large business you find does not hold his position by i reason of the fact that his name i k) 011 the business letter head. He is v. hero you find him by reason of his being able to fill it. There are some who believe that such things are purely a matter of chance but it is a mistake.

The | dry weather of one portion of the year will maybe injure one of the j crops but another one coming on later will be benefited by it. * * * * The government exhibit which will he a feature of the Fourth American Road Congress in Atlanta, Georgia, during the week of November 9th, will include a remarkable series of models showing every type of road construction from the military roads of Imperial Rome down to the most modern types of market road and city bouelvard. Reproductions of the roads built by the French Rourbons, by Napoleon, as well as the early specimens of macadam road built by John L. Macadam will make the series historically complete. This exhibit, which is now being prepared by the U. S. Ofliec of Public roads will also include a dynamometer equipment, by means of which the exact pull required on every type of road surface can be shown with mathematical accuracy.?News Bulletin. CAUSE AND EFFECT. Some of the enemies of Governor Blease go to the extent of trying to say that he was the instigation of the shooting of Dr. Mcintosh, and they do not go further to explain in what way the governor could have instigated this violation of law and order. They would leave the impression, if they could, that he was directly responsible in some way. This could not be so. But we do think that such acts of lawlessness at that perpetratr?#l linnn T??? M/iT?*/vnU L' - - 1 vv* M|/V?4 xyi. lu^intuoii rccenviy> unu like acts of lawlessness all over the State of South Carolina, are as a whole induced, fostered and encouraged by the extreme stand taken by Governor Blease on certain subjects of vital import in this or any other State. For instance, it is well known that he does not hesitate to say that he would lead the mob to lynch the negro who would commit a certain heinous crime. He made statements in the convention of governors not long since that caused the thought and attention of men of high standing in all parts of the Union to turn to him in some disgust. In many of his acts and transactions he shows it to be his creed to stand by his friends and let the constitution and statute law stand where they may. Such an attitude toward the law of the land, which should be supreme, in the words and actions of the chief executive, cannot fail to have an influence for bad in the minds and actions of hundreds of other men who look up to him as their leader and preceptor. And it is in this manner that such could lead to the unlawful shoot.' ing of a peaceful citizen on a public street. The purpose behind the shooting was shown by the words used at the time, which were: "Now you won't be able to bother.Coley tomorrow." We are unwilling to go to the extent mat some would in laying the responsibility at Blease's door, but we honestly feel about it as we have above explained. The people are looking to their leaders among them for guidance in the laying cut of their lives, and it is useless to think that one in authority can entertain wrong* views without impressing them on his following. As before stated the law cf the land must be held to be the supreme tiling in he minds and actions of the people else we will soon have a state of anarchy fr.-m which the Slate could never recover. If those whose duty it is to enforce the laws, express I themselves as standing only for their own selfish creeds, and those who are standing for them with them, how can the masses be expected to do otherwise than to think and believe that it is their privilege to take the law in their own hands, as it were. Such beliefs are what leads to awful acts such as came near to taking the useful life of Dr. Mcintosh. It is hoped that the end of such a state of tidings is near at hand in South Carolina. Human life was held cheap enough as it was. If things go on as they are going, the time will come when killings will be of daily occurrence. V DEITZ--COX. Last Sunday afternoon, Aug. 2nd, at 4 o'clock P. M., Miss Helen L. beitz became the bride of Mr. Robert P. Cox of Hemingway, S. C. The marriage took place at the residence of the bride's parents, Dr. and Mrs. C. S. Dcitz about three miles north-west of Conway. Only the immediate family and a few neighbors were present. Rev. A. D. Betts, pastor of the bride, officiated. The bride is well known here. She is a graduate of Winthrop College, and is one of Horry's most charming daughters. We regret very much to lose her from our county, for she is one of our most popular young lridies. Mr. Cox is a rising young business man of Hemingway, S. C. He is manager of the -Ileminfi'wav Motor Co: He was accompanied on this delightful mission by his brother, Mr. C. B. Cox of the same place. Immediately after the wedding a bounteous repast was served to the bridal party and guests. M*\ and Mrs Cox left late Sunday afternoon in their car for Hemingway. We extend to them our heartiest congratulations and best wishes. Piles Cured lr. 6 to 14 Days Vour druggist wilt refund money if PAZi OINTMENT fulls to cure any case of itching Blind.
