The Pickens Sentinel PICKENS, S. Cs JULY 23, 1914Z Entered at Pickens Postoffice as Second Class Mail 3tat4er.

Chick Springs eternal in the editors' thoughts. The business end of a bee cre ates more stir in this world than some people. "Four Kings at a Funeral" headline. First time we knew the game was played at funerals. Yes. Ernesto, you are right. You may wear as many badges as you please, but you can vote only once. If T. R. can't get office on his own platform lie is willing tq take a chance on any oldye publican plank. Where would.,5the makers of clothes f both man and woman if i ad not been for the sciouspi!ple? No one will acknowledge a znigake quicker than the fellow who pats-the lighted end of a cigar in his mouth. Standing headline in Colum bia papers: "Blease's Pardon Record." This only holds good until after the primaries. Colonel Roosevelt says this 2 Democratic administration will ruin the country, and of course rsays the only salvation is Me. King Peter of Servia has quit his job. Pete no voubt thinks a plain, every-day citizen, alive, is preferable to a dead monarch. A white man and a gorilla, both American citizens, engaged in a prize fight in Paris, France. recently. Thegforilla won. Serv ed the white man right. A news item says artificial marble is now Bhade stronger and more durable than the real article. And the same thing -can be said of butter. A news item says a Miss Deer -ing was married to a Mr. Mc I Cormick recently. The item doesn't say who the binder was nor how much he reaped. "Banks Covered With Ice," reads a headline over dispatch from Newfoundland. That's th~e way with most banks when one wants to borrow a little cash. A scotch suffragette threw a rubber ball at King George the othet day, which bounced off harmlessly. That's better than bouncing a brigk off one's head. .Landor, the explorer who had the nerve to say that the Colo nel's riyer ran up hill, has cast L the last straw. He says Roose velt is a pallonaro. whatever m that is! __ T'here will be ~nine county campaign meetings, the state campaign meeting, congression al campaign meeting and three - farmers' institutes in Pickens during August. General Prosperity is in the saddle and old Calamity Howler is in full retreat. This is the latest American war news as gleaned from newspapers all over the land. Columbia State says there are five thousand four-footed don keys in South Carolina. Figured -up how many two-legged ones there are? But that will be an easier job after the election. SSenator Penrose, Republican boss of Pennsylvania, spent $12, 866 for the nomination to a $7, 500 job. And he is tobeelected later en. The salary of a United States senator is only $7,500 a year. ______ 6 - .We would like to know if ev ery candidate in the race for governor honestly belieyes that he will be elected.-Beltonl Jour nal. Of course they do. Hasn't evey blessed one of them said so, -times without number? The senate Democrats in con ference have decided unani mously to stand by President Wilson and pass the trust bills before that body decid'e tP ad i ourn. The people seemi to cN turn. - Vic. Huerta is through totter ing now. At least he won't "totter" any more in, Mexico. He resigned the presidency of that republic Wednesday. Let us hope peace will be speedily restored to this unhappy country. Kansas has a $100,000,000 wheat crop to contend with and Texas is about to be pestered with a 9300,000,000 cotton crop. And there is no Republican ad ministration to claim the credit for it! Send for Uncle Joe Can non at once! All salaries amounting to as much as one dollar a day will be subject to garnishment hereaf ter in Georgia, the senate hav ing passed such a law last week. But why dignify a dollar a day as a "salary?" Sounds more like "wages?" A gunner at Annapolis, in fir ing a salute to the secretary of navy, only fired eighteen guns instead of nineteen, and now that gunner is in limbo. 'Sephus knows what's coming to -him and won't stand for anything short of it. A Cincinnati woman has bought herself a foreien prince, whose name is spelled Rospigli osi, but there is no telling how it is pronounced, Bad enough to marry a name like that with out being compelled to pay cash for the privilege. In a strike of bartenders a Massachusetts town y the places of the men-were taken by women in one e'tablishment. If they are- peaches" the other salooi will be forced in self defg'ise to put "chickens" be hjfid their bars. The Colonel sidestepped the "recall of judges" and "recall of judicial decisions" in his.Pitts burgh speech. As these policies are the only ones that bar him out of the regular G. 0. P., it would seem he is trying to get back in the old harness. West Virginia is dry now, having "gone and done it" by a vote of three to one. Virginia is the next southern state to do likewise, as the legislature of that state has given the people the privilege of voting whether they want prohibition or not. Frank W. Woolworth, owner of the building of that name in Ne ork, has fitted up the fortieth floor in the tower as living apartments for himself. It is said to be the highest dwell ing in the world. Talk about high living- that's too high. General Funston has done away with bull-fighting in Vera Cruz. If our Joseph was down there he would no doubt do away with puique guzzling, and put a speedy end to the Mexican rucus, for next to bull fights, the aver age Greaser dotes on his nation l drink. When sifted down, this talk f the United States being black. mailed by Colombia is all rot, This administration simply de sires to pay that country for what a former Renublican ad ministration "took." The cam paign is not far enough advanced tocall it a steal. Some one says that coffee will impair the vocal organs and rob the of their sweetest and purest strains of melody. We don't believe it, for we drink the de lightful beverage, and it has never detracted in the least from the purity and the sweetness and the m lody of our vocal powers! Kansas politicians are worried because the 300,000 women in that state who are eligible to vote in the primary in August refuse to register, and say they don't understand it. That's easy. When new voters come to register they have to give in their age with other informa tion. Uncle Andy Carnegie gave away two million dollars the other day to two Pittsburg insti tutions. If the Cairn of Skibo keeps up this gait his wish to die poor will certainly be gratified. t would make us poor, indeed, to give up that much of our hard earned wages more than twice a year. __ _ _ _ _ Ieport has it that Mr. Ford, the automobile man, is going to build the largest car factory in the wvorld in the south some where. He can find no better place than in the Piedmont sec tion of South Carolina, where is to be found the finest timber in the world especially adapted for the uses of automobile building. Having used the Outlook as his personal organ for the past five years. Colonel Rooseyelt has resigned from the editorial staff of that periodical. There was a kick coming from the business office of the Outlook, and it is said the Colonel's connection with the magazine cost it a pile of money during the campaign of 1912. When Virginia goes dry, as it surely will in September, the iquor dealers of that state will be pried loose from from an enor mous amount of money that has been flowing that way from the sale of liquor to surrounding dry d'fp- ed~r then Virginia, along Coming of the 'Zubes Summer is at hand, and like wise the annual coming of the city rubes. Treat them gently, handle them .with care, for though they may not be marked "fragile," they are as babes in the woods. Give freely of your store of knowledge, that they may re turn to the abode of innocents with wisdom to spare, for as we giye in this life so shall we re ceive in the one to come. Instruct them carefully in the fine arts of the milking of the cow, the fyeeding of the fowls and the pitching of the hay, and smile not when 'they ask you to remove the "thick yellow scum" from their milk. Assure them that when the cock crows at break of day it is not an alarm of fire, nor yet an earthquake, and neither is it a signal for lights out in the bar room. Awake them at noon for their morning repast, and warn them of the bull, and the snakes, and the business end of the goat. and of all the snares that beset the unwary in the field of adventure. Grave is our responsibility. Give it heed. We have been often reminded of the fact that the Largest City in the County was noted for its up-to-dateness, but we are losing faith. A story was printed in the '5a recently that a dead ARo in Easley actually escaped from the chief of police of that city and got as far away as Liberty before he could be over taken. Hereafter all dead ne gros found in the confines of the city of Easlev are hereby warned to remain there until an in quest has been held, or suffer the consequences. Enrolled yet?

That plank is annihilation of trade unions in the United States, and pledges himself. "if" elected, to do that very thing. What the organ ized workers of Georgia will do for "Little Joe" on election day will be something fierce. Some doctors up in Pennsyl vania are trying to make a full grown man out of a dwarf, and it is said they have succeeded. The trouble with these freak cures is that after one is report ed successful, in a week or ten days another bunch of doctors will come along and say that the public has been imposed upon that such a cure is impossible. Harold C. Booker, for several years editor of the Greenville Piedmont, has resigned his po sition on that paper and is now editor of the Spartanburr Jour nal. Mr. Booker has made the Piedmont a most pleasing paper and many readers in Pickens county will miss him. Besides being a good editor he is the most enthusiastic booster of but termilk as a beverage in the state. Viva Booker and butter milkI Associate Judge Horace Har mon Lurton of the United States supreme court died suddenly in Atlantic City, N. J., on the 12th, from heart failure. He was 70 years of age. He was a Ken tuckian birth and a gallant Con federate soldier, having enlisted with Morgan when only 17 years old. He was appointed to the supreme bench by President ITaft in 1909, being the fourth Confederate soldier to become a member of the country's, highest court.

Mr. Riggins Withdraws To the citizens and fellow Democrats of Pickens county: Having been over-persuaded to announca my name for commis sioner of Pickens county, not knowing that it-was violating the rules governing the party, and having my attention called to tWe fact by Mr. Clint Row land of Central, and upon in vestigation finding it to be true, I hereby call in my announce ment for the time being. Thank inm my friends for the interest shown in me and promising them that if they want me to make the race two years hence that I will try again. While some are still urging me to stay in the race and hold all the ground I haye, I feel it best to bow in humble submission to ths rules. The reason I cannot qualify for the race is that I moved away from this county and lived in Georgia two years and have not been'back here the required length of time. Yours truly. A. B. RIGGINS. Evidently it would contribute to the smoothness of the senato rial campaign next door if some method were found whereby Governor Blease' and Senator Smith could both speak first at the same time.-Charlotte Ob server. Some people just can't help being rascals. An unmarried employe of the Ford automobile works in Detroit, which concern shares its profits with its work ers, "rung in" his married sister in-law and her children, saying she was his wife, thereby receiv ing $360 more than he was en titled to. 'The company is suing the ingrate to recover that amount. All of which shows that there never was a "good thing', that was not taken ad vantage of by the unscrupulous.
