The people of Pickens county should feel proud of their record as peaceful and law abiding citizens. This county is gain ing a wide reputation on that account, and a reputation like that is worth something. _"' ng the last term of court for r county all the criminal c s were disposed of in about a day and a half and the civil cases took up about two and a ifali days. This is a good showing and one which very few counties anywhere can boast of, But this was two sessions of court rolled into one, making it a remarkable show ing. The court scheduled for Pick ens county last June was pst poned because there was not enough business to justify court being held here. Think of it, two terms of court disposed of in less than a week. There is probably not another county anywhere the size of Pickens that can show so good a record. If there is we would like to hear of it. Not only this term, but every term, the docket is light, 'especially the criminal docket. Solicitor Bonham said he thought the two main causes f6r this was the interest the people of this county take in their schools, and that Pickens county juries invariably render ed just verdicts-verdicts accord ing to-the evidence given. He is no doubt right. The manhood of Pickens county will not stand for fla grant acts against the dignity of the law of their State and county. And during all this talk of el " ectitorr fraud and irregularities we have never heard it even in timated that the election in this co'unty was anything but regu lar and right. The people of Pickens have regard for the right and feelings of their fellowmnen and evident ly believe in and practice the golden rule-the best of all rules. Surely such a record should bring a feeling .of pride to all citizens of this good county, and inspire us all to try to do even better. We believe we'ye got the best county in the State already. Let's make it "way yonder" the best. We are Grateful We appreciate very much the many words and acts of encour agemerit given us since we have had charge of The Sentinel. We have had many compli ments for the paper, for which we are grateful, and we wish to thank many of our friends who have been kind enough to give us news items of interest. They have helped us make the paper better each week and we appre ''ciate thneir interest. Help us to make The Sentinel even better. General election to the bat, Thanksgiving on deck and Christmas to follow. The Bull Moose is touring the South this week, He will speak in North Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee. From the investigating com mittee's report there are a good many Green vilians in our neighbor county. We see they are try ing to re vise the calendar. We hope they won't fix it so that Sunday will fall on Monday. We never did like the :idea of hunting down our fellow man with a gun. Especially if the fellowman had a gun too. The schools all over the coun ty seem to be better a~nd more largely attended than ever be fore. A mighty good sign. hyhasn't Pickens a build loan association?

Ganderbon October A scene at Armageddon, A warrior in tin, And every now and then a shout Emerging from the din. Some folks fancy Woodrow, And others fancy Bill, And others still for Theodore Are very hopeful still. A table and a pitcher, A speaker on his perch, And here and there. someone asleep. The same as in a church. The miracle of party, And the perfidy of doubt, With the usual statistics Till the watchman puts him out. A wo.nan with a banner, Another with a drum, And another with a curtain pole Revolving on her thumb. Some folks say it's nothing, But others think it is, And like as not it syon't be long Till man is getting his. The bull moose and the donkey. The elephant, the zoo, The trusts against the people, And the false against the true: But do not get excited, Or take it very hard, For they'll all lie down together In the same barnyard. October was originally the eighth month of the Romans, but it brought watermelons and pumpkins in at the same time, and Niuma Pompis, who liked both, pushed it along to tenth place to keep from foundering himself. A Bull Moose party formed to dethrone him, but he held on, and was able in the end to pull the skull of his enemies around on a string on Hallowe'en with a candle inside, from which we have our present-day Jack 'Latern. The zodiacal sign for Octoper is Scorpio, meaning the Scorpion. t typifies the manner in which canidates sting one an ther in the last few weeks of the campaign. October has always been the favorite month of the year. That more people have always married in June as only been explained upon the theory that inasmuch as hey are undertaking the battle f life together they probably consider that it would be .just as Progressive, peaceful Pickens. Everybody in the State had forgotten that John T. Duncan was in the governor's race till obbed up at the investigation eeting. Don't fail to send The Senti nel to your boy or girl who is way at school. It will be like letter from home. We will end it nine months for 75 cents, That was a nice compliment Solicitor Bonhanm paid the peo ple of Pickens on account of heir schools. We can make hem even better with a little ore money.

The gentle spirit of the Fall Will come to.glorify the air, And the football player will appall The population with his hair.

The better quality of air Will speed the presidential race, And a cockleburr placed here and there Will help accelerate the pace. The troubled earth will gently sway Beneath the violent attack, And the trustswill hustle corn and hay Along the fence inside the track.

And then November will re new, with somewhat cooler weather, and the poor consumer sewing two thin union suits to gether. Some men like to talk because it requires no previous thought.

TAXING POOR MAN'S COAT OFF HIS BACK Concrete Illustration of What a Re publican Tariff Really Means Causes Workers to Think. Concrete examples of how a pro tective tariff operatis are causing the working man, the "poor man." to do a lot o! 'hunking nowadays. He is be to understand whether it is not .bout time to call a halt on the puh!ican practice of taxing the coat c'f his back and threatening him with the lozs of his shirt and his socks if h6 .es not submit. All through the present tariff law. passed by a Republican congress and endorsed by a Republican President as THE BEST TARIFF BILL EVER PASSED, are to be found discrimina tions, the higher duty on the cheaper article, the lower on the shoulders of those least able to bear it the great er burden of the protective system. Here are some illustrations: The cheapest wool blankets bear a duty of 165.42 per cent.; the dearest, 104.55 per cent. Flannels, not more than 40 cents a Pound, are taxed at 143.67 per cent.; over 70 cents a pound, 76.37 per cent. Wool plushes, cheapest, 141.75 per cent.; dearest, 95.33 per cent.

Women's gloves, unlined, 49 per cent.; lined, 34 per cent.; longest gloves, unlined, 42 per cent.; lined, 29 per cent. Men's gloves, worth less than $3 a dozen, 66.28 per cent.; costliest gloves, 14.45 per cent.: leather, unlined, 44.58 per cent.; lined, 29.50 per cent. Buckles, cheapest, 77.48 per cent.; dearest, 26.3 per cent. Uncut diamonds bear a 10 per cent duty; imitation diamonds, 20 per cent. The humble firecracker bears a 97.02 per cent. duty. while elaborate fireworks bear but 70 per cent. Matting, smaller and cheaper grades, 43 per cent.; costlier, 24 per cent. Watch movements, seven jewels, 66.02 per cent.; 11 jewels, 40.41 per cent.; 17 jewels, 34.45 per cent. Underwear, cheapest, 56.90 per cent.; dearest, 50 per cent. Dress goods of wool, cheapest, 105.42 per cent.; dearest, 94.13 per cent. Velvets. cheapest, 105.22 per cent.; dearest. 49.55 per cent. Silk handkerchiefs, cheapest, 77.44 per cent.; dearest, 59 per cent. Scissors. worth 50 cents a dozen, 52.21 per cent.; worth $1.75 a dozen, 46 per cent. Table knives, fancy grades, 57.40 per cent.; bone handled. 69.43 per cent. Butcher knives, best grades, 62.10 per cent.; cheapest grades, 93.55 per cent. Files, smallest, 81.29 per cent.; longest, 36.81 per cent. Shot guns, worth from $5 to $10, 47.67 per cent.; worth over $10, 45.46 per cent. These are only a part of the dis oriminations, gleaned from a swift conning of some of the schedules. Re duced to simplest terms, they mean that the poor man is taxed higher than the rich man. OLD VANDERBILT RURAL HOME Little Place, Called "The Stream," is Leased by Millionaire's Wife In England. London.-Mrs. Alfred Vanderbilt, formerly Mrs. McKim, has been mak ing extensive alterations to the house called'"The Stream," at Betchworth, near Reigate, in Surrey, of which she took a seven years' lease last fall, a few months before her marriage to Alfred Vanderbilt. She is much at tached to the place, although neither the house, which is a small one, nor the grounds, are particularly attract ive. In fact, many of the people at Betchworth on learning that she had plenty of money said in amazement, "Whatever does she want to come to a hole like this for?'' When she re turned from her honeymoon almost her first remark was, "Oh! How gla~d I am to be back here again. Now I can rest and keep quiet." Sinice her return this sentiment has grown Mrs. Vanderbilt's English Home. stronger and she has bought the house and grounds. Since winter many improvements have been made that were badly needed, for the dwelling had been empty for five years before she took it. An additional plot of land has been bought from the trustee of the previous tenant, an outside broker whose business fell upon evil days. A garage has been built capable of hold ing several cars. Miss Ethel McCormick, who was Mrs. Vanderbilt's companion at the time of the marriage, still remains a close friend and is constantly at Betchworth. Some months ago, while she wa~s being driven in a dog cart by Mrs. Vanderbilt from Reigate the horse bolted and upset both women and the groom, who was with them, out of the cart. The horse was a young one from Vanderbilt's stables at Hendon, and Manager Wilson has since had instructions to see that quieter horses are sent to Betchworth.

SIMMONS SquawVine Wine A Palatable Medicine especially prepared to relieve and cure The diseases which affect women This excellent medicine is not only successful in conquering the pain ful and prostrating diseases that attack the female generative system but it is exceptionally pleasant to take. The usual rule that the nastier the medicine the more effective it is, is reversed in the case of Squaw Vine Wine. It is one of the pleas antest of medicines. The fresh juice of a well ripened sweet orange is not more agreeable. It is indeed a happy combination of sweet herbs .compounded with just enough spirits to keep it fresh and active in its medicinal effect. Poor, tired mothers, worn out with the cares of a family and household, and suf fering from those distressing aches, bearing down pains and nervousness which women only know, revive wonderfully under its strengthening and exhilirating influence. It eases pain, strengthens weakened parts, corrects irregularities, builds up a strong, vigorous body, restores brightness to the eye and color to the cheeks.
