Advertising Rotes Res'onable U. E. ROBINSON. EDITOR. . PICKENS,.C.: THURSDAY, APRIL 18, 1912. We are indebted to Hon. T. J. lauldin for much valuable as 3Istance in getting out the paper :ast week. Many of our subscribers are in arrears and we ask them to renew. After the first of May the list will be revised and we do not want to cut anyone off. but will have to unless they re new. The family and relatives of Mr. F. E. Cox have received many tokens of love and sym pathy in their sorrow, and some have written letters and sent to this office for publication. All these acts of friendship and tokens of love and sympathy are greately appreciated, more so than can be expressed. but we beg to refrain from publish ing these communications for the reason that some may think these columns are being used maore than is prudent for a fami -1y with whom the editor is close vl related. We hope our friends will appreciate the peculiar and delicate relation we sustain to the family and the public in matters of t~his kind. A Card of Thanks. I desire to express my sincere thanks and gratitude to the many kind friends who ' cheerfully ministered to my husband in his recent sad death, and for their many expressions of love and svmpathy to me and my children in our great sorrow and loss. Mrs. F. E. Cox. Mr. W. J. Belt to Enter the Ministery. The many friends here of Mr. W. J. Bolt will read with inter est the following taken from the Anderson Daily Mail of last Monday:. Mr. W. J. Bolt, formerly he Martin Drug Shas decided to * en ministry of the First Baptist church, and has been appointed'as assistant to Rev. Dr. John F. Vines, pastor of the First Baptist church. Action was taken on the matter by the cotgregation, at a meeting held during the morning service Sun day, a recommendation ot the board of deacons to this effect, being adopted. For sometime it has been re alized that the work of the pas -tor of the church was too heavy cfor one man, there being about 1.100 members of the congrega tion. It was first decided that clerical assistance be urovided, Later, however, when it was found that Mr. Bolt was avail able, the deacons recommended! that he be employed as assist ant to the pastor, and this his Sbeen done by the congregation. S Mr. Bolt will receive a salary ~of $900 per year, and will take *up his work at once. He is a young man of sterling character and worth. He has always tkna deep interest and active 7part in church work, especially Sin the Sunday school. A short time ago Mr. Bolt de cided tbae would fit himself m er in the Bap Schurch, and the ooportunity now afforded him to study under Rev. Dr. Vines will be one of great benefit. Change The Rules. The Anderson Daily Mail a few days ago in mentioning the fact of the meeting of the State Democratic Executive Commit tee in Columbia last week saidi that Judge 3. E. Brezeale of that city who was a member of the committee was also a mem ber of a "sub-committee ap ,ointed to perfect the by-laws so ' hat they will conform more 4 T HIS S ~' They have bought the present large stock of Watch T osely to the constitution." I oubtless the "rules" were 1eant instead of "by-laws." But commenting on the subject [he Mail said: "There is one change that Judge Brezeale advocated that ,he sub-committee would not agree to and that is to provide that all who take part in the primary shall take an oath to support the nominees of the democratic party. The oath now provides merely that the voter will support the nominees of "this primary." Thus it is a person may be an out and out republican, vote for the national republican ticket and hold some kind of federal job thereby and thereunder and yet be permitted to take part- in the democratic party primary." He may as sume a "wiser than thou" po sition in national politics in order to excuse his voting for the republican ticket and yet go around log rolling for some can -didate in the democratic party primary. Judge Brezeale's posi tion is to eliminate all such from the party. There are not a few of them, scattered all over the State, republicans for revenue, who always vote or take active part in the democratic party affairs: They have no more right to vote than these foreign immigrants cut out by Senator Christensen's bill. A number of friends asked Judge Brezeale to permit his name to be used for chairman of the State executive commit tee, but he declined on the ground that the chairman should live nearer to the center of the State." Judge Brazeale is right. The rules of the party in this state should be changed so as to re quire every man offering to vote in the primary election to take an oath or obligation or pledge to support the nominees of the party, National, State and County. This was the rule for many years after the primary system was adopted in this state and we have never been able to find any just reason for its being changed. It was changed, how ever, a few years ago and in doing so the bars were thrown down and an invitation extend ed to every class of politicial persuasion to walk into the pri maries and help Democrats elect their officers in the State and County, but turned them loose when national democracts were at stake. It is no open secret that men who affiliate with the Republi can party, and any other party for that matter, hold national offices under republican admin istrations and use their means, time and efforts to advance the Republican cause walk up to the polls in our Democratic pri maries and vote for State and County officers and then in the general election vote the Re publican ticket. It isn't right. It isn't good politics. If they are Republicans, third partyites, mug wumps or what not they should stay in their own fold. It is hoped the rules in this respect will be changed Notice of School Election. Sr~ste of South Carolina. Connty of Pickens.

Long who Livesin the Hickory Flat Section - and who is one of the largest farmers in the county,. used our 8-3-3 goods last year, side by side with an im ported fertilizer which cost him $16 a ton more than our 8-3-3, and none of his neighbors could tell where one ended and the other commenced. Mr. Long has red ~)land and 8-3.-3 is the fertilizer for red land. 8-4-4 is bet ter for grey land. After so much rain the ground is badly bleached, and this together with the lateness of the season and the ~lack of preparation, will make it necessary for the farm Sers to use a high grade fertilizer, and to use it freely to make satisfactory crops.
