MANNING is elected. the cilcus. is coming, and we'll bet old man FXI De Camp's a happy man. .m-: people are predicting thatlthef price of flour will go to $14 a babe. We always did like corn bread. WHEN the English get tired looking for German ships they search an App ican ship to break the monotony. PRESIDENT WILSoN is fixing to lose som1e of his good reputation. He has gone to predicting about elections. THE Spartanburg Journal failed to have its usual paragraph column last Tuesday. Too much or too little butter milk, Booker? CONGRESS has been adjourned some wucks. The only difference we can notice is that the Congressional Record has quit coming. A MAN will not love a country which oppresses him, but he will love and fight for a country which helps him or even treats him fair. THAT member of the family who is away from home would like to get the home paper every week. "Just like a letter from home." THE election of Dorsey as governor of Georgia is said to be a victory for either Tom Watson or the blind tigers; it hasn't been decided which. SoME of our exchanges are very posi. tive that Cooper will be elected governoi two years from now. No one can tell, 'even the day before election, who will be elected. "W HA-r will become of the Solid Sou ti if 'Tom Watson is determined to break~ it?" inquires the Charleston American. Why, dearly beloved, it will remair perfectly Solid. WE knew politics in Greenville wac bad, but we didn't know it was so bat that a preacher couldn't conduct a pro tracted religious meeting there withou having politics mixed up with it. WE have just learned why the Presi dent was so anxious to avoid a railroat strike. Troupe Partridge and Bill Jean threatened to walk out with tke other and thatwould have tied up the Picken railroad. WHEN John L. bicLaurin quits b: warehouse job and Ft1%Ink M. (i-ey i put there, ther'e will naot be so muel talk andi politics in it,--and we hopt there will be more work and benefit tc the farmers.

It occurs to us that ther waythings are now being managed, instead of making lawbreakers better they are being made worse., We try a man or boy for some trivial offense and secure his conviction; he is sentenced to pay so much money or serve so.many days on the chaingang. We puo stripes on him, give him a pick and put him to work by the side of some of thd Wv'o'st ctiminals in the state. With such treatment how long will it take 'to make a confirmed criminal of any man? . le losesiself respect and says, -Well it's no use for me to try to do any, better; the people all look upon me as'i cmmon criminal; if I should try. td reform I would be kicked out and treated like an outlaw;. they have put stripes on me and put me by the side of a man who is a professional 'gambler or a confimed thief; I'm rjpined anyway, so there's no use trying to be any bet ter or do any better. . hiiens to us that the object of pun 1ehtd ought to be to reform the vio-. lator of the law. Why not cut down some of our large appropriations and make arrangements by which our boys and young men and others guilty of minor offepses might have a chance to tiesorn? . separate them from the hard Ened -riiniuals and provide suitable in- I .t&thttotfor them and a large part of; our convicts would make good citizens.
