Thal Is what Noah Webster's un
abridged gives as UK- meaning of a
wort! appearing in lin- dispatches all
ino frequently in describing lim
meetings in whhrli Hiv candidates for
nilli!!! In this stale an- supposed to
iiK'i-t in Joint debate to discuss mat
tern fur the Koori of the ronni ry.
And the origin of the gumbol of Hie
t-utididulcs livor th- hills of green
clari with voles was to eriui'lite! "A
campaign of education" it was called.
When t io ver nor Blouse attacked Sen
ator Smith's record at a speech in
Orangchurg ami was annoyed hy the
crowd, mostly farmers, this paper de
plored it. And we now deplore th?
discourteous treatment accorded
Senator Smith at Spartunbtll'g. It is
not good Kportsiuanship. Seuulor
Smith had nut said a worri about
Governor Itleusc when liv was set ini
on ami "heckled." Had he altai ite l
Governor Iliense and in a manner tor
ilhe Governor's friends lo resent it.
there might even have liven question
ns lo the propriety anil good sports
manship of the act. Wc can't under
stand why thc crowd didn't "heitMe"
Messrs Pollock and Jennings, i .;.
Governor HI -ase tor that matter, for
there appears to have been a large
crowd of opposition to him there.
No. lt was not good sport. If Sena
tor Smith was trying to take ,? Joh
away from Governor Hloas^, If he
were making red hot charges rot
supported by the facts, lt might lie
a dlttervnt proposition, hut he is now
the representative in part of ibis
great state in Hie United Sta? *a sen
ate; he is contenting himself in this
race with giving an account o? what
he has done In the senute. It id due
his position that the people should
hear him.
We hope that the people of Ander
son, al] factions and all alignments,
will go to the speaking here, and
throughout the county, determined
not to disturb any speaker unless he
disgraces himself and his state, and
tn give all a elobc and attentive audi
and to whoop 'om up for the respect
ive favorites and go to the polls and
vole just us heavy as possible for
them, but. do not let us have any
"heckling" in this county.
Anderson county ls on? of Govern
or meuse's strongholds, was two
years ago by a tremendous majority
and is yet, no doubt. If his oppon
ents are treated discourteously here,
il wili go out all over the State that
governor's friends did it. and he
showed by his action at Spartanhurg
Saturday that it was distasteful to
him to have his opponents treated io
such u manner. There is no harm In
"guying" a candidate n little bit. hut
don't play too rough or too persis
tently, and don't "heckle."
"THE CHICKEN HOCHE OF GEOR
"Aw. ther ain't no money In chick
ens. Haven't I done fried lt. and
don't I know."
That ls something that we have all
hoard at ono time or another. And
there Is more or less truth In lt. If
we depend upon the local market
entirely, we would find that some
times chickens would tint bring the
best nf prices. Gut, suppose we had
a shipping market with Anderson
handling the poultry produced within
a rutilus of 20 miles? Can't be done,
you say? That is laziness. Anything
can bc done. Failures lu the past
might mean merely that there was
not a auftlclenl amount of cooperation
smong all who were interested in
thir proposition.
Gulnsville, Ga., is not better situat
ed thun Anderson, and yet we see the
following in the Gainesville News:
Some ono has recently called
(laine:-ville the "chicken house
of Georgia." This ts true in a
large measure for we thlp chick
ens not only, all over Georgia,
but to other states as well. Our
chicken and egg business amounts
to more than half a million dol
lars annually.
People of Anderson, city and coun
ty, get together on this poultry prop
orltlon. We see crates of chickens
dally going through from Walhalla
to Charleston. Why not have cars
where crates are now handled? It
can be done, chickens may roquiro
some attontlon to make the business
profitable, and that is all the more
reason why tho poultry business
should be undertaken in a more
systematic manner.
Why not have poultry clubs along
?very line of rural free delivery in
the county? If the people In the coun
ty knew how much in demand chick
ens are tn the city, they would pro
duce more, and by keeping In touch
with the Chamber of Commerce it
would be necessary to bring them to
town only when there was a scarcity.
Anderson college will need a lot of
pickles and preserves and Jelly. Here
is an opportunity for Anderson coun
ty housewives.
Tili: HUNTY Sf'HOOL
The Behool house should be the ren
ier of population. Around it the
young Htid the old should allow their
Inicrer.l to center sunt affections to
fling, ls the school houHC nt Imlay,
in all its neatness lind lieauty, as
(.'IOHO to tin* hearts of the people as
was the "old fashioned H<:linol hotiae"
wileri* many nf our best mon of today
got their ?lari in letters through the
intensive system, in? hiding tin- hick
ory withe? The Keim?l house hliould
tu-ver lie (doned. It should always lie
Hie place lor neighborhood gatherings.
Along tilts line President Woodrow
Wilson says:
"There ia or.? thing in which I
have boen very much Interested
in recent years. "You know I
used to ho a schoolmaster and
(lie interesting thing about the
schools of lite l ulled Stall's ls
thal the United States makes MI
little use of them.
"For example. you lake i ur
r.chool houses all through th"
countryside, standing here, 'hen
ani! everywhere in the cities, and
they are closed for the most patt
between the school session of
one day and the school session -if
the next day. Tiley are pilbil*:
buildings. They beliing to the
communities. They furnish ideal
places in which to assemble and
discuss public affairs. They ?ra
Just what we need for neighbor
hood gatherings of every kind.
And yet is was reserved for a re
cent date for somebody to sug
gest that Hie school Innis es he
made social renters; thal they he
used for every kind of legit lu?ate
conference." Q
"The back on the farm move
ment will never he a reality until
Hie s? hool house becomes the
center of interest. Singing
schools, debuting societies, musi
certs
cal concerts. phonograph read
ings and musical programmes
the all tend to bring neighbors
together and to broaden their
minds and make their ideas more
liberal.
Anderson county lias the best pub
lic schools ami rchool buildings in
the State. Our county superinten
dents of education, from Jno. G.
l.'ltnkHcules on down to and including
J. II. Kelton, have done a splendid
work. Hut whut wo have done today
ls merely thc foundation of what we
should have. Make thc echool houses
the community center.
THAT "CULLED" BOGIE MAN.
Tlie negro ls down and out politi
cally. He will never have a hand In
the government of this state.
Although superior in every way to
the negro Just from slavery, the negro
of today ii? un tit to govern others.
Every white believes this.
Those who lug the negro Into our
campaigns are doing the white man a
great injustice by letting the negro
think thai there are some who fear
the black man's vote.
The negro does net reek political
power In this state. ."te knows that
he was put at a disadvantage under
the leadership of carpetbaggers and
the scalawags. The negro does not
seek social equality. In fact, as far
as we cun Judge, the negro doesn't
seem to seek anything. Rut all of
this talk may stir within him Borne
kind nf latent longing and make him
mischievous.
That Is the real danger. Let thc ne
gro realize that he is regarded as a
factor and wo may have some real
danger to confront us.
The superior white man knows,
feels and asserts hts superiority and
the negro does not have to be taught
his place.
THEY APPRECIATE fLASS
Since we have been able to convince
The Rock Hill Herald that Anderson
really has 17,000 populatloa, there
ls nothing too good for us to say of
good Brother J. T. Fain, editor of that
breezy paper lu the "Windy City."
Wc have always thought that The Ev
ening Herald had "some class" and
now we know lt. The Herald In try
ing to get the best in styles of ad
vertisements, coptes a page adver
tisement designed for tho Coca Colt
people by The Intelligencer. ? page
Advertisement designed by this paper
for the Coca Cola people was copied
by tho Greensboro, N. C., Record."
Those two papers are looking up
ward and they appreciate clasB.
The protection of the law IR the
Door man's best friend. Under the
nedieval "survival of the Attest." a
Few had all, the many had nothing.
Wo need no more law, but observance
md enforcement.
Tho shameful treatment ot Senator
Smith at Spartanburg and Mr. Rich
ards at Columbia cannot but make
people resent the manner In which
hey were annoyed.
In the last year of his term of of
lce. Gov. Ansel pardoned but seven
penitentiary convicts. His total for 4
fara was 48. Thia does Dot include
main-gang offenders.
Permanence

Whether lh?' average life is more

tics tells UH thal the average IK higher

Mut the I rend of human progress
now is io make things permanent.
All of Hie work done, except that on

tial, permanent nature, and it must
be sahl of the highways that they are
nearly ali ou a permanent grade that

The public buildings, and Hie build
ings of a public nature, which are be
inj; erected now are of a material an I
workmanship that will Just Inst Tor
??ger am! agoB.
Though chango .lu written epon ev
erything human, the engineers tell us
that lhere ls no reason why the bridge
we have made across the cut on North
Main street will not he as good und
solid one thousand years from now
sr it is today, and they are making
the depot of thu same kind of mater
ial.
I never cross it now without think
ing of Hie stone bridge across the up
per Danube in Prague which was
built a thousand years ago. It is said
to be the strongest bridge in the
world. For centuries it was the only
bridge in that city to span the Danna.
Hut now there arc four others, much
more symmetrical, but not so mass
ive.
The engineers tell me that the
buildings lo be erected by the C. & W.
C. railioad on South Main street are
to be both symmetrical and perma
nent.
While architecture is not very pro
gressive in form, lt certainly has tak
en a long step forward in the way of
muking things permanent.
