WELCOME TO ANDERSON We welcome to Anderson today the farmers who como from the counties of the third congressional district to exhibit their oats for prizes. This will be a day marking au epoch. The exhibits this year may or may not be large In number and remarkable for variety and excellence, but there is one thing certain, the effort that has been made this year hy Furman Smith and J. It. Vandlver and the Chamber of Commerce will not be wasted. For no matter what is the outcome of today, this is to be made an annual grain festival, and we expect that In years to come there will be hundreds of farmers all over this section com peting for the prizes. Although this is a busy time with tho farmers, they will como to An derson today, we feel quite sure. There will .be addresses that will bo' of great benefit to them lu their work. A great many exhibits came In yesterday and Furinan Smith was busy all day long grading and sorting and labelling the oats. The prlio ex hibits will be In the wholesale seed store on Weet Henson street, near the Davis and Fowler stables, ,but, the public exercises will he at rhu Chamber of Commerce rooms, begin ning at 10 o'clock this morning. While this is primarily for the peo ple of the country, yet the people of the city are urged to attend. OM? FASH IHN Fl? EDUCATION The problem of child education ls the mosl important that exists today. Wise men heave endeavored to get at the simplest, most readily under stood methods, and we do not pro pese, its solution. In these days of tito high cost of living, the arithmetic of thc market hinket ls the very essen tial study. There is a movement to the return to the teaching of teh el ementals, the three lt's of former days. Supt. Davidson of the city schools of Washington recently Issued n re port in which he sahl: "Children must be taucht certain knowledge which they emphatically need in aftor life. This stresR should be laid on their branches. On the other hand, tho recreative side of Aie school life must not bo totally neg lected. Children as well as adults must be tuken out of absoluto rou tine. For this reason, the little music wo have and thc physical culture work and Instruction In innnual train ing are important. "Teach the child the things that are useful in strengthening thc mind in building up tho character. The chil dren, are ourvgreat assets. The de veloping of their minds should he given much more attention than the good farmer gives to the ? preparations for his farming Interests."1 . . u\:V. ?' '. V . " V'f vu i i.i M: nix.

Huerta's Successor a Jur Not a Part Francisco Carbajal Known as a M Ability-Formerly Chief Jual co-Huerta a Very Rich Man HUERTA'S SUCCESSOR. I'raueheo Carimj;i i.. appointed thc minister of foreign ivhiiions in tbs?

Ile i;> ii native of the state nf Campeche. Victoriano Huerta rose, ruled and foll in Mexico an arny miall. The ar my, which the Constitutionalists de clare will be the hist thing abolished, supported him ami exalted him. When it was no longer aide to stem the onrush of the revolutionary Hood there was nothing else for him to do hui to get out. Vet (his man. who kept up his fight Tor seventeen months, was hom an Indian peon in December, 1 S.14 at Co ld lan, in tho state of Jalisco. He was bright, active and industrious, and acquired thc rudiments of an ed ucation from u good parish priest, whom be had long delighted to hon or. Ile wanted to be a soldier from the first, and his opportunity came in 1S71 when Genera! Donata Guerra jed an expedition through the native place at the commond of President Juarez. Guerra needed a secretary to write some dispatches for him, und young Huerta stepped forward in his sandals to volunteer. He pleased the soldier, who questioned him. "I want to go to Chapultepec," was tho reply. . C?Spultcpec, the West Point of Moxlcorhad always been the school for the aristocrat, but Guerra liked the lad. He interceded in his favor and President Juarez gave him an appointment,.;--Ile. came out .four years later a lieutenant with honors, and in 187G he won honors at the Hattie of Tecoac, where Porfirio Di az commanded. According to thc standards of civ ilized nations. Huerta is guilty of wanton murder. He destroyed thc men whom he thought plotted against his government. In his defense, it is pointed out that he did what DIa? did for thirty-four years; what every Constitu?iona-l 1st commanded did up to titree months ago It was the law ot' thc army lo spare none and he fol lowed it. :K 11 ..

Ho never lived at the Cas tle of Clin pul!'.nc because he sai.l the castle on thc rock was too lone some for an old Indian. Ho seldom stopped at the national palace. 'Within two months he completed a fine home lu tho suburbs of the capi tal, where he established lils family. He remained there some, of his time. He did not liku to appear publicly at regular places. He choso different routes and different places from Time to time. Very often he would shift the cabinet meetings. "My mother teels me that a good Indian never goes over the same trail twice." he explained to a .fri?nd. Ytv. he did not appear much afraid of as sassination. When driving, he used an open touring car; when he walked the F.treets he selriomn had more than one aide. He visited stores alone an J frequently stopped to talk with men ir. the street. No matter what else may bc said of Victoriano Huerta-he is no cow ard. CONCERT TONIGHT To Re ??Ivon al the First Presbyter, hm Church.

(In t Will Surpass All the I'rctious Ones. (From tho Manufacturers Record.) lt begins to appear likely that the cotton mills in the cotton growing states of the South will end the cur rent commercial year with a record in cotton takings beyond 3.000.000 hales, a record that thc mills of the rest of the country have never made amt one that thc mills of the coun try, Including those of thc South, did not read until 1898, just sixteen years ago. Up to last Friday, the Southern mills had taken 2,S18,31G hales, a quantity within 50.24;: hales of the total takings by auch mills in the year ended- August 31, 1913. In that year between July 10 and August 31; the Southern mills took 255,948 haler, making the total takings for the year 2,969,559 bales, if as many bales an; taken during the/rest of the present year us were taken in the same period last year, the total tak ings by thc Southern mills will be 3, 175.204 bales. L5ui up lo July 10, the takings by the Southern mills this year were 205,705 bales more than in the sume period of 1913, au inci ease oi 7.5 per cent. Should u like rate of l?crense be maintained this year, the total takings in the Southern cotton growing states will be 3,194,461 bales, indicating tak ings by all the mills of the country, uinouniing to 5,000.000 bales. The advance made in the takings by the Southern mills from 1,919, 252 bales in 1904 to more than 3.000. 000 bales in 1914 is but a part of the interesting story of tho development of the textile interests of thal sec tion from the 179,000 bales taken in i??0, ut the tinto of the revival of the industry after 20 years of wreck and depression, to the 1,000,000 bale mark in 1897, on tu the exceeding of the takings by the mills in the rest of the country in 1903 for the first time, with that record repeated sev eral times since, and on to this year's record. But in spit of that record, much is still to be done before the South cnn be enjoying to thc full it? wonderful, opportunities in the textile Industry. So far this year the total supply of commercial cotton hus been 14.G73.S20 bales, an increase of 672,530 bales, or 4.6 per cent over the tamo perioil last year. But of that commercial crop the Southern mills while taking nearly 54 per cent of the total takings, have taken only 19.9 per cent. Three times us many thales of Southern grown cotton have ' been sent to foreign lands this year than have been takeu by Southern mills. Great Britain alone having taken 462,655 more bales than they. When the reverse shall be the rule, when the South shall be spinning three times as much cotton annually us it exports, when 10,00,000 halos, in stettd of 3,000,000 bales are il3 re cord then tim South will be approach ing its correct status as a colton man ufacturing State. It is consuming now three times as much cotton as in 1897. Is there not in this day of realization of the folly of marketing the tiber as raw material instead of as finished products, the spur In the present situation lo advance the tex tile industry of the South nearer thc points were 10,000,000 bales will bc called for annually by the mills. A LOVELY TRIP TO MOUNTAINS Of An Anderson Touring Party To thc "Land of the Sky" A delightful touring party has just been completed which was given by Mr. and Mrs. W. L.
