The farmer is the back bone of the

Some farmers try to get along too

It is a part of the original make-up

satisfied with conditions as they lind

change them.

The war in Europe raised flour ir
this country a dollar a barrel before
the first week of it was over. And it
is hard to understand just how the
war could do it.

Plenty of men can be found who
have never actually rendered a single
day of hard labor and yet will complain
that they have already ruined
their health by hard work.

The Marion Star's remedy for the
low price of cotton is to change the

to wear more of it. The Star would

Penitentiary stripes would be too
good for the man who can find nothing

When you once take a position it
does not pay to withdraw from it, especially
if you arc a candidate for office.
Therefore it pays to be sure before
taking a position on some question
involved.

The campaign of education which
has been waging in this State for the
past several years grows stronger every
year, will result in making it impossible
that any politician can fool
the people in the future as it has
sometimes been done in the past

Fashion is a curious thing and some
of its products are curious. We can
put up with most of the freaks in
wearing apparel during the past few
years, hut when the fashions decree
white shoes and white pantaloons for
the men, well, we are obliged to draw
the limit.

In order that the voters of this
State may cast the ballot intelligently,
they must do more reading. No

! remains that it is to the newspapers
the people must turn to get information.
This being so it is a great pity
that there are so many in this State
who cannot read, and so many others,
who from prejudice or spite refuse to
take a newspaper, let alone read it.
*
When seeking honesty and truth go
elsewhere than in politics. It is advised
that no gentleman, let alone a
lady, should attend the meetings such
as took place in the campaign for
United States senate, by reason of the
shocking language used by the candidates
running for that office. To describe
what the language was, would
mean for us to print a row of dashes
as long as from here to Columbia and
back.

At the campaign meeting in the
Senatorial race, at Kingstree the oth
er day. Governor Blease ridiculed
reports contained in the three leading
daily papers of the State to the effect
that the Conway meeting on the day
before had been against the governor.
Then he proceeded in his speech to
make the boast that he would carry
the county just as he carried it before
Those who attended the Conway meet
ing know that the governor failed to
awaken the enthusiasm that he
brought forth here on the two occasion
when he ran for office before. The
hand writing on the wall was plain
enough so far as the Horry campaign
meeting was concerned, and he knew
it well enough himself.
