You'll have to admit that Clink" has a nice jingling sound, anyway.. at hg'become of the old y who used to wash his-feet every night? There were 24,120 votes cast n the Third congressional dis trict in the last election. -Oh, well, who cares if the price of both champagne and diinonds has advanced? Keep in the middleof the road yourself, old man, and maybe "the kid" will follow you. August 25th, with the assist ance of Col. Vox Pop, will settle the war ineouth Carolina. If you happito speak to an Easley man about the war, he will think you mean the war of 1812. ___ _ It is said that Jack Johnson ~has :volnteered- to fight for! * ~ France. Put~ him up in front, There's a man living in Polk county, N. C., who has not out lined a plan to avert low prices for cotton. "You .can't keep a Pickens man down" is only another way of saying "you can't keep a good man down. Now, where would this coun try be "at" if we had a presi dentof the Hearstvarietv? Don't all answer at once, please. 'The campaign liar is getting ready for business. Look out ~for him. What he says should be taken with plenty of salt. When a candidate for office makes a statement and then says "nobody can help themselves," it sounds too much like V ander bilt's famous (or infamous) re mark, 'the public be d-d." ~It looks as though every voter -in Pickens county has enrolled his name so that he can vote in the primary. Which shows that the voters took no stock at all in * the stories that the new rules would disfranchise them.

"Fire-Alarm" Foraker of Ohio failed of senomination for the United States senate. Stand patters are slowly but surely passing. Let them pass. The best .platform of any of the dandidates for governor- we have seen is that of Mr. John G. Clinkscales: "Achanceforevery boy and for every irl" to get an education. Politics is a dirty business, ac cording to the stories tld by some of the local candidates. They say mud-slinging has, com menced in the county. The smaller the office sought the more mud thrown. Too bad. It has been suggested that Nat Goodwin might take advantage of the excitement growing out of the European situation and get married again. -Not he. Nat will wait till the fuss is all over so that he can get on the front page. The vote in Pickens county for governor in 1912 was 3,653, and the registration for 1914 is 3,989. In 1912 the vote of the county was divided as follows: Blease, 2,259; Jones, 1,297; Duncan, 97. The vote for the whole state wa: Blease, 71,552; Jones, 66,478; Duncan, 2,385. We -want you, to read the ar ticle in another column of this paper about Mr. Walker Row land of Anderson. Are we going to send the boys and girls of Pickens county out into the world and force them to work under such handicaps? How he must have longed that he had been sent to school when a childf Some of the candidates for office. who say they are not op posed to educating our boys and girls, make the excuse that it will be too expensive to, build more and better schoolhouses, or that "the time is not ripe" for a comnpilsory school attendance law, all of which is rankest rot. With South Carolina as one of the six states of the union with out a law of this kind, it would seeni that the time is "ripe"~ for something to be done for the army of children to have at least a chance.to go to school. Let the People Rule Some twenty years ago when the Farmers' Union was clam oring for the operation of such measures as have been put in effect during the past week or ten days, the people who had control of the government de nounced them as a lot of crazy fools, anarchists and the like. But now we see these old reme dies woriking like a charm, and saving the country from disaster and miserv alrmost as great as would be entailed by war itself. For instance, snppose the few holders of gold had done as is always done under conditions like this-hoarded it-and there had been no tremendous cur rency issue, what would haye been the result? Panic, and at the end of the panic all the prop erty of the poorer people would have been in the hands of the richer people. Great is a coun try where the people are their own rulers, and where the many will not allow themselves to be oppressed by the few.-Yorkville Enquirer.

Walker Rowland, motorman on one of the pas. - senger trains of the Piedmont f< and Northern railway, is 33 si years of age today, -and he says that a man never gets too old to - learn to read and write. He has tried it, and knows what, he'is talking about. - 0: "When I was six or seven a years of age I was sent to a s< country school in Pickens coun ty where I was born, I was al- *1 lowed to stay in school one year -hardly long enough to learn y my letters," said Mr. Rowland d today. "My parents took me to iR Piedmont and put me in the t: cotton mill, and I stayed there 0 until I was 17 years of age. and t during my work there I didn't get any opportunity to go to e school. My mother died when ti I reached 15, and I stuck it out e at Piedmont for two years after her death, and then went to work for an uncle on the farm. a When I went there we didn't 1 have any understanding about pay, and 'after I worked there a year I found I didn't have any- f thing coming to me.. I went to ii work then for another man for n $5 &month and my board, and . at the end of dighteen months this fellow had beaten me out of $45, so I pulled up and left. f I met another farmer who r agreed to let me have 10 acres of land f6r $25 rent, he to share the crop with me. I didn't try a this but oite year, and I then c came to Anderson-going to the h Cox mill where Mr. Frank c Alexander was running the r company store. I got a job ot - running a push-cart, to deliver packages for $25 a month, and I held on to my job after Liuon' c & Ledbetter bought the com- c pany store. I "Eight years ago I went with e the Anderson Traction company, and worked with, the company until it was sold and made a d part of the G. S. & A. I was given work on the city cars e under the new management, and it was then I learned that if I wanted to go higher-on the interurban trains-I would have to have some education. I didn't know how to read nor I write- I couldn't sign my name. But I was determined'I was go ing up higher, and I got. me a reading book, the kind the chil- I dren use in the first grade. and ~ with the help of my conductor I eC soon learned the letters of the r alphabet. I took the book homne with me at night and my wife helped me. Then Conductor Bowen of the interurban took an interest in me and did what t he could to teach me. I "Finally," said Mr. Rowland, in talking of his experiences, "Superintendent Crosby started his night school here to teache the men about operating the, I interurban t ra in s, I .we'nt't along to this school with the, others, and when the time came* for us to stand examinations Ijf tried with the rest of them; ande I didn't have any trouble in get- v ting through. I was assigned't to run a freight train engine at first, and some time ago .I was promoted to a passenger train. And it all came about by my dF learning to read and write just , as I did. If I hadn't, oh, well, e I would still be running a city car up and down Main street, I reckon." S Calomel May ' Hurt Your Liver Every time you take this pow erful drug you are in danger. s Take Dodson's Liver Tone in- t stead. Calomel is made from e mercury, and while mercury has many valuable uses, it is a dan- g gerous thing to swallow. If cal- t omel stays in the system very long it salivates. Even when it C works naturally its after effects - are often bad. The Pickens Drug Company will sell you Dodson'sLiverTone, which is positively guaranteed to take the place of calomel. e Liver Tone stimulates the liver t just enough to start it working, i9 and does not make you sicker than ever, as calomel often does. ~ You feel good aftei taking Dod- f: son's and it won't force you to c top eating or working after tak- a ing it. It is as beneficial for children as for adults. Try a large bottle for fifty b cents under the guarantee that d your money will be given back C cheerfully if you're not satisfied. Adv.
