Carpenter to j Anderson causes Home to punce uno! recall the fad that lt was he who bundled the work which has resulted ?a tin- beuutlfuJ institution we call ours -Anderson College. Mr Car penter o? ?ourse did not do it all. Even UK thought may not have been' his. The lute Fred (J. Brown, Wm.I lt Osborne, lt. S Lig?n, fitas S. Sul livan. and other progressives had dreamed of a college on this site. Hut it -.vas Mr. Carpenter, who, as' secretar/ of thc Chamber of com merce, saw something must be done, and put tito wheel in motion. Just ul ihut critical time Anderson was be llin divided, and what was worse, was falling hack. Tin- prospect was any thing hut encouraging. It was not the work of a moment lo start the campaign to get a college for Anderson. The plans were con sidered for weeks. In the very midst i of the campaign the two small mills : east of the city were smashed.: Those were bad days for cotton mills, when Brown and Sully and Hayno were shoving tile market to .20 centH., But, even in the face of this Ander son College was started, because Au dersun pulled together. And after the pledges were taken and tho movement launched, there! were stalwart, wlunlng personalities hero to carry it through, over obBta-/ des which usually arise after such' a 1 whirlwind campaign for suVjscrlp tlons. J This shows what'a commv"jnjty can do when lt takes the uo/?on into ,tH head, a purpose Into itsj heurt ttnd the throttle Into Its humK1B Ovcr-promo tlon is as dangered a8 BtagnoUon.

And look ing "Won what has been accomplished, th^Xeople here are filled with a high j rj2C?Oive and a common purpose to irffnake this a great city some day. Tho people here are pulling togeth er, nnd there is a fine community spirit here, lt has been developing and growing ever since the day that water was pleasant, found that it water was pleasant, found that they could float Anderson College, and with the Improvements being arranged for and to be consuinated. the good old town will be very much In the swim in the next few months. THE VISITING! PREACHERS There are in tho city today two preachers of note. The Rev. Jas. D. Kinsrd of Greenwood comes here to organize a branch of the Lutheran church. The Lutheran denomination ?B somewhat ltkc tho Prebytorian in belief and the Episcopal in form. !t ia making a great deal of progress In the south. Twenty years ago in the capltul of the state this denomination was very weak, two small, struggling chur hes. Today there are in Colum bia two strong churches and two or more new churches, a theological seminary and a publication house that ts valued at more than $100.000. This is the central publication house of all the liUtheraus south ot Pennsylvania. The other preacher who is here to day Is Rev. D. E. Camak of Spartan burg, who is the founder of a splendid work that is being conducted in the outskirts oft that city, an industrial school for the help of young men and women who work Itt textile plants. Thia school gives them an opportunity to assist In paying their way through school by work in tho mills. Ander son people will recall thc splendid ap peal made by this young man when Conference met here a little over a year ago. Rev. J. W. SpeaWe of this city ls one of tho trustees and most enthusiastic warkers for thia school. Mr. Camak will preach In Mr. Speake's absence. The school recently received a legacy of several thousand dollars and has provided itself a beau tiful home which limy be awn from the Interurban windows as the train approaches S pa rt a n burg. RILES FOR CONSUMPTIVES. Acting under a law of 1912, the New Jersey state board of health haa issued thc fsilowis" rules, ~h!ch arc tn be followed by all consumptives in that state: 1. All persons suffering from pul monary tuberculosis (consumption) shall effectively destroy their spu tum (spit.) 2.

I, The room occupied by a tuber culosis patient shall have at least one outside window. 4. No person suffering from pul monary or other communicable form of tuberculosis shall handle food de signed for the use of others except when necessary In the performance of household duties, unless the food be wrapped in such a way as to protect lt from contamination or unless some necessary subs?quent procoss of pr? paration such HM cooking will sterilise it and prevent UK carrying Infection to Hie consumer. '<? The manufacturing of any kind ot good H 'or commercial purposes or the performance of any work known as "shop work" in the home of any person suffering from pulmonary or other communicable form of tubercu losis. \A prohibited, unless the product ls such as can be sterilised, and un less sterilization ls done in strict ac cordance with thc requirements of th? local board of health. WH? NOT WORK IS CONGRESS? Mr. Speaker ( lark is quoted as saying recently that the congress would noon find it necessary to re main in continuous session, so urgent ami so voluminous have become the business af?airs ot the United Slates u?>\ ernment. That such a condition exists we have not the slightest doubt au.! we have IOIIK thought thal coiigrewj, < could, with profit to tho country iU large, remain in practically y?nti?i. nous session. Certain lY,.?jy,;i United states government hjy^ greatest or ganization on thc/fy,.,. of lhe globe,! BO far as bujbj^K ,a concerned. It ls a \v*fn know,, fuct that the pl gaulle Corporations of this and all Pitier nations are continuously at thc bat, to borrow a phrase from our baseball friends. The salary of a! member of congress is fairly remu-j neratlvo If thc member lives as do^ tin? most of his constituency. "Hack i hoce" in the average member's dis-, iricf there are not ten persons who] would think of neglecting their Ursl ncr-s a'rairs for a fu'l half of each y-iar. This being so. we see no reason why the average member of coneress shouldn't be advised as the old lawyer advised the hero of "Brewster's Mil lions" when that worthy was Inclined to lay down on the job: "Stick to j your knitting, damn you!" yOf course we built the canal. It's] ourn to keep, its ourn to preserve, ourn to defend - to paraphrase Judge Story. Hut no railroad can live on local business, and no railroad gives away a local business to acquire for- j eign. It is rumored that the physicians of Greenville are In wretched health -overwork from writing certificates that tho militia over there cannot go to war. In the cl?an-up campaign In Spar enburg we hope nobody will take too literally tho injunction "palnt-up." MEXtQUES Likewise, Why ts Mexico? It ls a very Blow day when Villa doesn't "com?scate" eoinethlng like I $75,000 worth of cotton. That Admiral onroute to Tampico is named Badger. And he will badger Mexico Bure, if Huerta doesn't be good. "Daniels praises nudger's Spirit," is a headline In the esteemed News and Courier. Well that ta the only "spirit' we have ever "hearn" tho Sec. retary praise. i -o If the worst Comee to the worst, af ter the American fleet is in Mexican waters, we favor sending Big King over to Mexico City with instructions to spank Huerta within an inch of j bis life. Then, too, we shall rest easy as long as we know that both Colonel George Balley and Governor Oscar Colquttt are betwixt weuns and the Mexicans. "Englishmen say Viiia Needs Lous ing After," says the News and Courier. For once we feel confident that Hu erta will agree with John Buil. Just to be frank, is lt fair to our boys who keep up a military organisation to have them pulled down by lazy tn dur?rent militia companies in other ] ivar ts of the .state? ! ie ward for the faithful and kick out the drones. One reason why Huerta did not j want to ure that salute was on ac count of the smoke nuisance. Makes j so much noise and rsoot. Why not] give a college yell In honor ot the Del? ph In. ?o - Tbe Catawba Rifles of Rock Hill having announced their preparedness for war, we feel aura that Huerta will abdicate tbs whole business. He knows what the Catawbaa did to those Spaniards. The question ia: Boes Huerta gat bia back up, or. Dona Huerta back town? Well know by sun down. It la beek ?down and call up, or back up and call down. o o u ooo o o ooo o u M UKI DY PLAYING PATRIOT o Dy Savoyard II ?-?ooo O 0 O O O O O "For I say unto you, that except your righteousness, exceed the right eousucsti of the Berthes and Pharisees, ye sh.ill in no ease enter Ike King dom ut Heaven."-St, Matthew. What was the doctrine of the Scribe* and Pharisees? This, simply this-"I am holier than thou " "God, I thank thee thai I am not aa this publican." That is the spirit that crucified the bli-sid Redeemer, stoned Stephen broiled Lawrence, persecuted the saint , a id deluged Christendom in oceans of blood in a hundred wars, since ?he Lamb of God suffered and dieil oti th? eross for bad folks like you and me. W ll. Cure is a political pharisee/.' ism that is scarcely less de^UVTctive and almost us odi.OUS.JR 'says. "I am mon- patriotic tAprf you." Mankind has been Placed with this vermin thioughmyf tile ages. It ls the dagger a'."!, :of "tc the demagogues; it 'is tue food and raiment of that polit ical miscreant whose citadel ls ig norance and whose breast-works is prejudice Tiie Hon. Knowland ls one of t eui and their tribe is legion. lt porsued George Washington und tin little fellows in the congresses of bis day and denounced him for sur rendering to Greut Rritaiu just as our fried meat set in this day charge Wilson with sycophancy to the same power. There Is nothing new In it. it is the virus that corrupted the pol iticians or all ages, in all climes and amcng all races. Here is the Hon. Vardaman, who says lie loves the flag with thc same fervor John A. Logan used to deliver himself of. and he has gotten himself in such a patriotic ocstacy about it that he has forgotten the nigger long enough to promise to tax the poor devil growing a miserable patch of cotton in the piney woodB of Missis sippi and bestow the swag upon un opulent snip iruat monopoly mat is worth untold millions. I iiope the Senator will speak on the bill. Now this row about canal tolls ls only the Battle of Baltimore over again. The Hon. Vardaman was dis astrously beaten, routed-horse, foot and dragoous-in 1912 at Baltimore, and lie will be just as signally discotn. fited in his assault on Wilson's ad ministration in 1914 as he was when he mustered himself against Wilson's candidacy two years ago. The isBue then was: "Shall Woodrow Wilson or Chump Clark lead the Demo cratic party? And that is the same issue today. Vardaman was against Wilson then. .. He ia with Clark now. The result will bc the same. And Chump, that lovable and de lightful man-was porn to be greater Pepys, bui he needfi.rapstibe a states man. With .p mind^the most impres sionable, loyal. .wl,th .patriotism the most unselnshrrtibflB. grand man bas fallen into a set pf harpies* like Hearst Wh6 bullies him aqd ,iike, pubois who flatters hjm^ ., I, do'flOt.,say; t?at Champ Is conscious thpt Hearst dominates him for he is not, but the consequence is the same. ?, lt is deplorable-the course of Clark for the past twenty months and up wards. His. chief. endeavor-his sole endeavor-seem8 ,Cl to so conduct himself as to vindicate the wisdom of the Baltimore convention of 1912, in rejecting his nomination. Now, there i? so doubt of tbs per sonal popularity of Champ Clark and lt is founded on affection more than on admiration. The day the "rule" was brought in Clark and Underwood got immense applause from the Re publicans; but the day the debate was closed on the bill after the rule was adopted lt was proposed by the real democrats of congress who abomi nate the special privilege of a ship subsidy, "to give the old man a band." And they did so without demur and without stint with the understanding that they intended "to run thu steam roller over bim and smash him as flat as a batter? uke when the vot? was taken," and that was all right. It did the old fellow a heap of good and did the cause of true Democraroy no harm. THhe steam roller was there and in action. But the least said about Champ's speech, the bettor-lt was claptrap, hyperbole, an appeal to ignorance and prejudice. It will be a big run at Terrapin Ridge, 'Possum Scratch and Sllpakln-nowhere else. The sole issue before the House was this. Shall the Democratic party ad vocate the taxing of all the people to bestow a subsidy on an opulent, greedy ship trust Without its corruption practiced on congress-though prac ticed in the roptile press-the ship subsidy is the reincarnation of th" Pa. elfie Mail Scandal of 1872.

MISS CAREY TO SHOW POULTRY AT THE PAIR London, April 18.-House decora tors are busy overywhere in London, and all who wish to be considered ab solutely up-to-date use vivid hues ia their homes.

Meriwether, a Confed erate veteran, killed himself with a revolver yesterday. Meriwether pre pared for his sot by shaving and dressing neatly before going to the cemetery, and writing a note saying he was tired ot living. The body is being cared for by war time comrades. ooooooooooooooj 0 Atlanta Letter oj oooooooooooooo! Atlanta. April 18.- A piece of news,' ur rather views, is going the rounds among the Atlanta lawyers today which Isn't serving to tranquilize pub lic sentiment any in the Leo Frank case. Sonn- of the lawyers, delving in the lawbooks have declared that ir the ?J.j s. constitutional point about to.be UT gued before Judge Hen /'lilli is tinnily sustained, it wiU- mean, not that Frank will get n^wtrlnl. but un der the law that^J/fank will simply walk out of jall/'a free man and that lhere never .will be any new trial. From a/conlon sense standpoint such, a ..thing is hard to believe, but some of Hie best constitutional law lers here say it ls so. Meanest .Man in the World. Atlanta. April 18.-Speaking of poli tics, another candidate has entered the Meld for unanimous election as the meanest man in the world. Sad to relate, hu is presutuably an Atlant ian. Fortunately hlB name bi not known--though lt may be if tue detectives are unto their job. A Baltimore salesman named W. B. \ Hugebs was walking down Peachtree toward the terminal station Friday with a suitcase in Iiis hand, when he had a sudden fuiuting spell and crum pled up on the sidewalk. While the ambulant- ewns coming, several kind hearted pedestrians lifted him from the pavement, mopped his fevered brow and gave him a drink of water. Incidentally while be was in a faint, one of thc kind-hearted Samaritans got his watch, his loose pocket change and a purse containing some checks and bills. "Tue next time I faint in Atlanta. 1 I hope they will let me lie and suffer," I said Mr. Hughes regretfully when he j fully came to himself in the hospital." To See Play "Dabaged Goods." Atlanta. April 18.-At laut ians are I going to have the opportunity after all of passing judgment uti "Damaged Goods" thc famous sociological drama by the French Immortal, Brieux. "Damaged Goods" ls the play that troats with extreme frankness a sub ject that is usually discussed only In a doctor's office and then only In whis pers. It ls unquestionably the bold est dramatic presentment that has ever been offered to the American theatre going public. Condemned by thc censors in England, lt was praised by some of the greatest s nd most thoughtful English men of let ters and reformers. No play in this generation has cuused the amount of serious and thoughtful criticism pro and con that "Damaged Goods" has. Some peo ple believe lt is the proper thing to do to present such subjects on the stage. Others think the stage is the wrong place for them. But no voice has ever been raised to Impugn the seriousness and sincerity abd power wlth< which Brieux bas treated bis Subject. ' .? rt Won Over To Woman Suffrage Atlanta, April 18.-Jonathan . B. Frost, the well known publicist and editor, has been won over to the'cause ot woman suffrage. Mr. FroBt an nounces today that he is going to publish a suffrage number of the "The . v ail of thc ?cutn," which ls to cuntain articles and arguments on woman suffrage from the pons of some of the leading women of the country. Mr. ?-Yost wsii have someibing io say r,i?n-i self through the editorial columns, on the subject, and nearly every suffrage leader of consequence in the south will be invited to contribute to Its pages. With thc exception of a spe cial suffrage edition published by the Atlanta Constitution some time ago, "Tho Call of the South" will be tbe first southern publication to Issue a suffrage number. Chalngnng Sentence. Atlanta. April 18.-Judicial threats and warnings have materialised gt last, and a white man. the manager of ono of Atlanta's clubs has drawn a 30 day chaingang sentence for selling liquor, without alternative of paying a fine. After L^'ri.ig the evidence a young man named Junes of East Point, who mysteriously disappeared after some recent raids had been made and who bas since been sought in several states, but who voluntarily returned to his home yesterday, the ~ police court adjudged Manager A. R. Smith, of tho Metropolitan Club guilty of selling intoxicating liquors, and sen tenced him to pay a fine of $200 and serve thirty days In the stockade. Note the "and." That ls the part of ??i. r.cstcscc that v.-i? meas shackles for Smith, unless he gets the verdict set aside on appeal. Usually where a white man is concerned the sentence reads $200 or thirty days. Two or three judges have been threatening that sooner or later they would sub stitute sn "AND" for that "OR" abd now they've gone and done it. - Two other managers. H. R. Smith wt ?u? i'?u niiiin?

RLATON Some Say that He Wishes te Get a Chsure to Pardon Leo H. Prank. Atlanta, April 18.--Politicians and newspapers alike. Independent of which political camp they belong to, are in many Instances this week open, ly condemning the action of the Cobb County executive committee in call ing for the resignation ot Governor Siaton, since he has announced for the senate, and intimating that the governor ta their opinion was holding on the governorship merely that he might pardon Leo M.

Evans Out of Those Already Cpl, victor ?3. ChepUire, * member of Gov. Blease's staff and well known in politics in Anderson county, an nounced yesterday that he had decided to withdraw from the race tor con gress from the third congressional district. Up to this time Mr. Cheshire has been one of the active contenders for CongreBman Wyatt Aiken's job and this announcement may occasion some surprise, not alone in An demon county but all over the district as well. lt is-announced that this is due to' the fuel that Mr. Cheshire's has a humber of business' deals pending which will require so much of hit: time.that it Will be utterly impossi ble i'or bim to make the .strenuous and active campaign necessary and he has therefore, decided to withdraw , his ?am? and leave it with the other can didates. When asked the question to whom he would throw his support Col. Ches hire said that this would all depend upon who entered tan race. "With the present announced candidates, Mr. Aiken, Fred H. Dominick and Capt. Frank S. Evans of Greenwood, I shalt throw my support to Capt. Evans," . said Mr. Cheshire, "and thal support will be well wbrth having. However. I bear that strong pressure ls being I brought to bear upon Dr. Prank Smith of Easley and should Dr. Smith make i the race I may conclude that he ia the strongest candidate in the race and lend my support to him." When asked if the public wonld not wonder about his refusing to sunsort mr. uominiex, an intimate friend of the governor and allied with the ad ministration forcee. Col. Cheshire said "You probably know what my,support in Anderson county is worth. .That support has always been-given freely and fully to the administration ind indirectly to Mr. Dominick and If hive never yet received anfthlhg for lt and i do not propose to continue giving all the .help and assistance I caa and re ceive nothing In return." Col. Cb'--hire has a strong personal following in Anderson county and In other cou nil is In this district. A. H. Dagnall, an Anderson attor ney, la persistently; uitiiiiinnw? mu m probable candidate for congress hut Mr. Dagnall baa aa yet made no state ment as to whether or not he .trill run. Mr. Dominick says that he does sot believe there will be any other candi dates than Mr. Aiken and him self. Mr. Aiken la* in Washington and hasn't opened his mouth about the campaign, bnt ale friends say that he la getting stronger dally.
