AttendtheExposttion Every farmer who can do so should attend the National Corn Exposition in Columbia be,,inr ing January 8. Few realize the greatness of this exposition. It is national in scope and there will be agricultural exhibits from 35 different stats. Foi the first time this exposition will meet is the heart of the Sunny South, and this will be the largest and most brilliant yet held. There are mammoth buildings connected to form one titanic structure, heated bril liantly illuminated; charming in artistic arrangement and scenic beauty; complete in every detail-a world in itself. It will be an incentive to greater achievement in agriculture. There will be reduced round trip rates on all railroads. It will be the greatest agricultural exposition ever held. Is c4 Dog 'roperty? In 1899, the Supreme Court, considering this question, in a decue filed by Judge Jones, says: "The reason for the out lawry of dogs in favor of thieves can hardly be regarded as per suasive at this day and here. and such crude application of the principles of the common sense. The fitness of an ani mal for food is not the only test of its value, to mankind; its capacity for useful service in other ways is often the real test of value. Nor is the fact that an animal is kept for the whim and pleasure of its owner any ....rot of reason for excluding it from the law of larceny as a thing of no value, for amuse ment has its valuable uses to man. Neither is it just to say of the dog that its name is so base as to render it unworthy of protection as absolute prop erty, for Baron Cuvier says the dog is the completest, the most singular, and the most useful conquest ever made by man. When we are told that the Greeks and Romans employed dogs in war, armed with spiked collars, and that Corinth was saved oy war dogs which at tacked and checked the enemy until the sleeping garrison were aroused, we better understand Shakespeare's Antony when he said, 'Cry havoc, and let slip the dogs of war'. We should not let our contempt for sheep killing dogs and our dread of hydrophobia do injustice to the noble Newfoundland, that braves the water to rescue the drowning child; to the Esqui maux dog, the burden bearer of the Arctic regions; to the sheep dog, that guards the shepherd's flock and makes sheep raising possible in some countries; to the St. Bernard The Infernal Pains of Women Women who are weak, nervous and discouraged brought on by the painful ailments peculiar to their sex, should use DR.

The Primary System Some time ago Senater Till man addressed an open letter to the legislatuer of this state urg ing some action on their part to safeguard and purify the pri mary system. This letter was L yery timely and contained some very wise suggestions. I Now is the time to make amendments and changes in our primary laws, rules and regulations. In this off year, when everybody can think and act coolly and dispassionately; when there are no politics and no interests to be served except the public good our legislature should heed the suggestions of Senator Tillman and set them selyes seriously to the task of remedying the defects in the present system and making it secure for the future. As pointed out by Senator Tillman if white supremacy is to be maintained in this State without serious consequences it behooves our lawmakers to act and act now. That the present system is imperfect, that double voting arid other corrupt meth- E ods were indulged in and re sorted to in the last primary election there can be no doubt, and it should be the earnest de sire of every loyal, true citizen to have pure elections. It would be a calamity to the State and brought with untold - consequences for the white people of this State to become divided: and yet this yery thine is going to take place next year unless something is done to I purify the primary system. Last year the white yoters were - nearly evenly divided in the election for governor. These two factions submitted their claims and bound them selves to abide the result of the primary. but we all know the Soutconme. There were charges, -andl proof in many instances, of d (ouble voting, ballot b o x stuffing, putting names on club rolls the day of the election. 1 allowing minors and those who were not ,citizens to vote and -many otier irregularities. I( -This so disgusted and nauseated a large part of the white people .of the State that they have de cided not to participate in an other primary election unless " these things are corrected and such practices made impossible ~ in the future. The white people shul stay together. It will E - eteworst thing that could happen to this State for them 3 to divide. They are in a posi- - [ tion now to heal the breach that has been made and prevent it from becoming greater, but if this opportunity is neglected dire consequences may result. 1i If Gov. Blease would do his t State a real service he has the opportunity of his life, and that C is to join Senator Tillan in r urging the legislature to pass strict and stringent laws safe- I i guarding the primary. But he V (did not say a word about it in I his message. Surely the gov 1 enor will not overlook so im- - portant a matter as this. f Sinlce wxriting the above a b)ill 1has been introduced in the 1 legislature by Senator Nichol son of Edgefield to safeguard 1 ~primary election. It is too long for publication here, and from :a casual reading it dloes not im press a careful thinker that the t remed; proposed will meet the, urgent necessities of the situa- ~ tion. But any restrictions are to be courted and it is hoped .that this bill or some other will he p)assed1 which will give the needed relief. LIANA1ENT RECIPE.
